Aquarius Weekly Horoscope

This week ushers in productivity as well as opportunities for pleasure, Aquarius, so you can have a little bit of everything on offer. You’ve been on a worldly pleasure cruise ever since Mercury entered Gemini and your fun-loving 5th House for its annual stay; hopefully you enjoyed yourself on more than one occasion because there is a major shift in the energy on the 1st as Mercury waves goodbye to this sector and moves on to Cancer and your efficient 6th House of Daily Work and Routine for an extended tour. Now the Universe wants you to focus on getting yourself in shape, both mentally, physically, and spiritually, and cutting any unnecessary excess from your life. By becoming your best self, you’ll be able to make a better life for yourself, so remember that by taking care of you, you also take care of your needs both here in the present and down the road in the future. Keep in mind, however, that Mercury will turn retrograde in this same sector at the end of the month for three weeks, so don’t attempt to implement too many changes or improvements all at once, or you’ll create unnecessary headaches for yourself. The 6th House favors small changes over big ones anyway, so use this time to experiment with different ways of upgrading your life until Mercury goes retrograde, then you can begin to gain more clarity on which ones actually work for you in the long-term, and you will be ready to be your best self by the time Mercury is direct once again.

Fortunately, there is still plenty of fun to be had as the Sun is dancing through Gemini and your 5th House of Romance and Creativity for another few weeks, so even if Mercury is turning your attention towards efficiency and responsibility, the Sun wants to you go indulge in activities that bring a smile to your face. The 2nd will bring an interesting opportunity to do just that as the Sun will lock into a special sextile with Saturn in Aries and your 3rd House of Local Community, making this a great time to hit the town with a friend or lover and see what’s happening in your neighborhood. You could discover some great new spots that become long-time favorites, or you could meet someone while you’re out and about who winds up having a major impact on your life. This is also a very expressive energy, so if you’re an Aquarius with something to say or create, use this opportunity to let your imagination go wild; be ready to share your message with the world.

Lastly, you may feel vaguely conflicted on the 3rd, with ‘vague’ being the key word. Mercury will square off mysterious Neptune, who is also in Aries and your buzzy 3rd House, so you might wind up getting pulled all over the place, thinking you are going to accomplish lots, only for the day to be frittered away. People may also prove very unreliable at this time, and communication will not be optimal, so if you are trying to schedule any important conversations or interactions, this is not the ideal time; happily, clarity should return in just a day or two.
