Mars’ Motivation
Your ruling planet Mars is in Aquarius as the month begins. Aquarius is the star sign at the base of your horoscope ruling your home and family, your past and where you come from.
Mars is the planet of action and speed but Mars is being held back, limited or repressed by Saturn in Aquarius on the 5th. There may be a disappointment on or around this date. Alternatively, it may be a sign to dig deep, to be determined and make things happen.
Being a Sun Scorpio, you don’t give up easily when there’s something you want to achieve. Mars and Saturn working together can be a strong symbol for willpower.
Once Mars breaks free of Saturn, then you can start to take the initiative and put energy into your domestic situation or your family relationships. You may be taking care of a parent or someone older and be considering how to organise your time better to suit everyone well.
Routine & Health
This is a good month to put time and thought into your work and routine, your well-being and health. This is because the Sun is in Aries and your work and health sector until the 20th and talk planet Mercury is here until the 11th.
You may have lots of good ideas about your work or time management. You may be keen to start a new health or fitness routine. The New Moon falls in Aries on the 1st, a symbol of new beginnings, so don’t procrastinate or waste time if you want to start something new.
This is where there’s a whoosh of planetary energy so find new and innovative things to do, whatever your current situation. It’s important this month to focus on your physical fitness and do what you can to stay strong. Go about your job, your business with strength and courage.
The Full Moon on the 16th is slightly different as it falls in Libra, the star sign before yours. You may need to take care of yourself or others on or around this date. You might be exhausted or feel overwhelmed with too much going on. Take time out if you can and stop and reassess where you can most successfully channel your time and energy.
Your co-ruler Pluto is square to the Sun & Moon during this Full Moon phase. This is another reason why you may be feeling wiped out or favour time to yourself. Pluto’s in your communication sector but it may be a time when you don’t want to speak up and would rather stay quiet.
Love & Relationships
The major Jupiter-Neptune conjunction on the 12th falls in your fellow water sign Pisces. The Jupiter-Neptune theme is about big dreams and it’s a creative influence for you. Pisces rules the most creative sector of your horoscope, your gifts and talents, the things in life you give birth to, including children.
There may be a big win for a child on or around this date that makes you exceptionally proud. Encourage the ones you love to follow their dreams and do the same yourself. Breathe life into your hopes and wishes as this combination can be miraculous.
Plus, your ruling planet Mars also enters Pisces on the 15th which means that you’re carrying the Jupiter-Neptune wave with you into next month. Do more of what you love, follow your desires, lead a passionate life.
Love planet Venus is leading the way. She enters Pisces on the 5th and at the end of the month on the 27th & 30th, Venus aligns first with romantic Neptune, then with lucky Jupiter. This could bring something special your way, especially if you’re ready to fall in love, produce your masterpiece or adopt a child. It’s your choice.
There’s another reason why relationships could be important to you now. This is because the Sun enters Taurus and your opposite star sign on the 20th. Plus, talk planet Mercury is in Taurus from the 11th to the 29th.
Taurus rules all your one-to-one relationships, both personal and professional. It’s about contracts, alliances and collaboration. Although, it can flag up your competition or expose your enemies.
Therefore, keep your wits about you especially when there’s a second New Moon this month, a Black Moon that’s also a Solar Eclipse. This takes place in Taurus on the 30th and pulls in the planet of change Uranus. The 18th could be a significant date too.
Events could happen swiftly as Uranus tends to turn any situation on its head and eclipses are shadowy bringing what’s hidden to light. Yet, the ruler of the Taurus eclipse is lovely Venus cosying up to Jupiter on the same day.
Therefore, this combination has the potential to bring exciting developments for love, perhaps reconnecting you with a lover out of the blue. As Uranus rules technology it could be an online connection.
Certainly, it feels as if the wheel of fortune may turn in your direction towards the month’s end and hopefully lead you down a positive path. Notice who comes into your life on or around the eclipse date. They could be around for some time to come.
