This week balances complexity and opportunity, as various planetary influences draw attention to themes of individuality, relationships, and personal growth.
The Sun in Sagittarius continues to inspire adventure, optimism, and the pursuit of the "big picture."
Meanwhile, Mercury retrograde in Sagittarius slows down external progress but encourages reflection, particularly on personal ideals, long-term goals, and communication patterns.
Venus in Aquarius highlights unconventional approaches to love and finances, supporting freedom, experimentation, and intellectual connections. However, Venus forms an opposition to retrograde Mars midweek, triggering tensions between relational desires and individual assertiveness. This dynamic demands careful negotiation of interpersonal boundaries.
Mars retrograde in Leo continues to slow physical momentum but offers opportunities to reassess personal ambitions and refine creative projects. Meanwhile, the grounding influence of Saturn in Pisces urges us to reconcile dreams with discipline, while Jupiter in Gemini encourages expansive thinking.
By week’s end, a sense of clarity begins to emerge, supported by stabilizing Taurus and communicative Gemini Moon phases.

- First Quarter Moon in Pisces: A time of growth, challenges, and increased awareness.
- Mercury Retrograde in Sagittarius: A period of reflection, review, and potential communication challenges.
- Venus in Aquarius: Unconventional and independent energy, focused on friendship and individuality.
