Your Monthly Romantic Astrological Outlook
Aries (March 21–April 19)
Watch your reactions this month, Aries. You’re likely to respond emotionally and be just a little bit more sensitive than you are normally when relationship matters arise. This mood will hit its apex around the full moon at the end of the month—before then, it’s just a slow burn to overreactive territory.
Taurus (April 20–May 20)
Taurus, let’s get the not-so-fun news out of the way first: Mercury is retrograde and for you that means an old flame is popping into your messages to say hi. Ignore it! Instead, focus on what’s in front of you. The second half of the month taps your domesticity so have a couples party that allows you to play host.
Gemini (May 21–June 20)
Last month, Gemini, you saved some extra cash. This month, you’ll want to spend it all. Be careful—you don’t really need that Michelin-starred dinner for a first date, do you? Be sure you’re staying in your budget and not love-bombing anyone with fun little presents. On the 24th, Mercury sextiles Venus, making it the perfect time for more serious relationship conversations.
Cancer (June 21–July 22)
July is a give-and-take month for you, Cancer, where every ounce of romantic and thoughtful energy you put into relationships will be returned to you in spades. This is a great month to deepen connection and understanding with your partner—or potential partner—so be open to the concepts of vulnerability and authenticity.
Leo (July 23–August 22)
Venus and Jupiter are in your sign this month, Leo, and that means wonderful things are about to happen in your love life. Maybe you’re going to be on the receiving end of a grand romantic gesture, or you randomly meet your soulmate. Either way, you are oozing light, love, stamina and attraction. Enjoy it!
Virgo (August 23–September 22)
Virgo, watch for the new moon this month; you’ll meet someone new that day. It could just turn into a nice friendship, but the opportunity is there for a spark to turn into something more. When the full moon hits at the end of the month, that’s your sign to plan a big, romantic evening for you and your new connection.
Libra (September 23–October 22)
Libra, focus on balance in July. You’ll want to nurture your existing and potential relationships—and you should—but be sure you’re getting the same nurturing vibes in return. If both of you can’t be open and honest equally and without shame, put in the work to improve the partnership. Or, break that one off and look elsewhere.
Scorpio (October 23–November 21)
Scorpio, last month you spent a lot of time thinking about your career and big moves. This month that pays off—not just financially but romantically as well. From the middle of the month on, you are looking extra appealing to your co-workers. How about a little romance in the break room? Your chart points right to it.
Sagittarius (November 22–December 21)
This month is not really going to be about you, Sag. Take some time to sit back and wait for opportunities to come your way next month. In the meantime, July has excellent community vibes for you. If you’ve ever wanted to play matchmaker among your friends, get to it! You’re bringing people together in extraordinary ways right now.
Capricorn (December 22–January 19)
Capricorn, in June you really sussed out your emotions with the people closest to you romantically. This month be as present as possible in those relationships. Foster growth and warmth and ask for the same in return. It’s a prime time to discover joint goals and begin to move toward them together.
Aquarius (January 20–February 18)
Deep breaths, Aquarius—Mercury’s retrograde is seriously messing with your daily life this month. From little misunderstandings to absolute breakdowns of text chains, it’s time to tread softly and take small, reasonable steps in your relationships. No grand gestures, even though Venus is in Leo, which gives you immense romantic power. Thanks a lot, Mercury.
Pisces (February 19–March 20)
The first week of July is going to kill your romance vibe, Pisces. Take comfort in the fact that Mercury retrograde isn’t messing with just you. Everyone is dealing with it! By the new moon on July 14, drama should ease up a bit; and you can expect a new soul to enter your world—either a fresh relationship if you’re single or looking or a child if you’re already sworn to someone.
