Aquarius Weekly Horoscope

This week could prove quite a pivotal one for you, Aquarius. It may feel that the Universe is trying to push you forward on the 9th, and an interesting opportunity could land in your lap due to the potent New Moon in Scorpio and your ambitious 10th House of Professional Goals and Achievements. This will offer you a chance to make some major changes to your career path, so if you feel like you’ve been spinning your wheels then it is time to finally start taking back control and gaining some ground. By the time the Scorpio Full Moon rolls around in six months, you could be in a whole new professional stratosphere. This sector deals with VIPs, so don’t be shy about asking your supervisor or another respected figure for some advice; you never know who will open what doors for you.

Meanwhile, Mercury has spent the last few weeks retrograding through this exact same professional territory, during which time he’s been scrambling all sorts of signals, and making it difficult to feel secure in your work and career trajectory. Fortunately, that cycle ends on the 13th as Mercury turns direct and starts to work in your favor once again. It will take a week or two for him to build up speed and get back to his usual buzzy self, but you’ll start to see progress on the career front where there recently only seemed road blocks. VIPs and other supervisors will be especially ready to come to your aid, and open a few impressive doors in the process, so you’d do well to have your elevator pitch ready to go at the drop of a hat.

Also on the 13th, you’ll begin to start feeling like your old self again, and not a minute too soon. Romantic Venus has been spinning backwards in retrograde formation since the start of October, dimming your light and making life feel a little less exciting than you would prefer. Romance has been pretty much off the table ever since she went to sleep, so if you’ve been sloughing along with a relationship, or found it impossible to start something fresh, it wasn’t your imagination that was cramping your style.

Since this transit was occurring first in Scorpio and your professional 10th House, and then in Libra and your adventurous 9th House of Expansion, you may have felt as though the world held a little less magic than usual, like everything was in black and white rather than vivid technicolor. Now, however, the beauty of life will become that much more obvious and you’ll be more than ready to go charging off towards the horizon, ready to find whatever wonderful things are waiting for you in the great wide yonder.
