Aquarius Weekly Horoscope

There is work to be done this week, but you can still find time to play, too, Aquarius. The first important event of the week occurs on the 18th, when messenger Mercury will retrograde out of Sagittarius and back up into Scorpio and your 10th House of Career for the remainder of this sleepy transit, before turning direct on the 29th. During this cycle, you’ll want to avoid engaging in any new professional endeavors because they will likely spin out of control, so if you’re eager to start climbing the ladder, do the wise thing and wait until December has arrived before you get going.

That being said, you may feel like the Universe is trying to push you forward on the 20th, and an interesting opportunity could land in your lap regardless, as on this day the skies will feature a 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. Again, with Mercury retrograde until the end of November, it is fine to take a week or two to strategize and plan your next moves before you begin to start racing towards any potential finish lines; remember the fable of the tortoise and the hare.

Your life is about to get very busy come the 21st, which might sound a bit daunting after the hectic month you’ve had. With the Sun lighting up your professional sector things have been a bit of a whirlwind, but happily there is a significant change in the wind as the Sun slips out of Scorpio and your goal-oriented 10th House and moves into Sagittarius and your outgoing 11th House of Social Groups and Global Communications for its annual visit. For the next four weeks, connections of all kinds will prove their worth, and you can be sure this will include a few new acquaintances so keep your eyes open for potential collaborators. This sector also rules your hopes and dreams, so don’t be shy about putting yourself and your desires first. You really can get what you want.

Last but not least, on the 23rd, the Sun will make a potent sextile to extreme Pluto in your sign, amping up your ambition and your desire to get the gang together for a day of whatever-you-like. It’s perfectly fine to play the ringleader, but don’t force anyone to get on board with your personal program or they could feel like you’re twisting their arm unnecessarily.
