Aquarius Weekly Horoscope

Have things been feeling a little intense lately? Have you had to deal with a lot of extreme matters that took the wind out of you? If the answer is ‘yes’ it wouldn’t be all that surprising, but the good news is that the mood majorly lightens this week. For the last couple of weeks, you have hosted Mercury in Virgo and your 8th House of Shared Resources, which is just about the most intense sector of the zodiac. This energy changes come the 18th, however, as Mercury jumps into Libra and your boundless 9th House of Expansion and Adventure. It’s time to turn towards the world and discover all that it has to offer, and if you do you’ll come across more than one idea or project that will turn out to be worth its weight in gold. Get ready to spread your wings, because there is a whole world of opportunity waiting for you out there.

Next, on the 19th Venus will leave Leo and your 7th House of Partnerships and move into Virgo and your intense 8th House. For the next four weeks you’re not going to be satisfied with casual romance or basic flings; instead, you’ll want someone who is willing to go the distance with you. Get ready to show off your most private side; there is someone who wants to get to know you. This same sector also deals with major finances, like bonuses, inheritances, and even credit cards, so with Venus offering up her bounty, you might receive a windfall or two. Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth!

The 21st underlines this Virgo energy, as the skies host a potent New Moon in Virgo, which is the second in a pair of back-to-back Virgo New Moons, with the first arriving back in August, but—even more importantly—it is also a Solar Eclipse, meaning it is extra potent and absolutely super-charged. In the days and weeks to follow, keep your eyes peeled for unexpected financial opportunities or chances to bond more intimately with someone special, especially if you have felt rather disconnected from others. This is a moment to deepen your connections, so don’t waste your energy on people who don’t deserve it.

Also on the 21st, the Sun makes its annual opposition to Saturn, currently in Pisces and your 2nd House of Income. It’s highly likely that a matter regarding money will pop up at this time, or perhaps it is more to do with how you spend it. Perhaps you owe someone money and have to pay off the debt, or perhaps you realize you need to make more in order to afford the kind of lifestyle you want. Take a pause and consider your options, but don’t fret if a solution doesn’t appear automatically; Saturn likes to take its time so you’ll figure things out soon enough.
