As the leaves turn, this week begins with a shift that feels like stepping into a new season of our life. Pluto, the master of transformation, stations direct in Aquarius this week after five months of retrograde. If you’ve been processing loss or simply letting go of old versions of yourself, this shift will help you reclaim power. While it may feel like old wounds are reopening, in reality the inner work we’ve done is beginning to manifest outwardly. We’re no longer just healing; we’re evolving.

Then, on Friday, the Sun in Libra squares Jupiter in Cancer, a transit that amplifies everything it touches. This aspect expands confidence and vision, but it also tempts us to overpromise, overspend or overestimate our own stamina. Ask yourself if you are headed toward breakthrough or burnout. The key is moderation: Enjoy the optimism, but keep one foot grounded in reality. This week is a reminder that growth doesn’t always mean going bigger; sometimes it means refining what’s already working.

Venus, the planet of love and beauty, returns home to Libra on Monday, wrapping us in her lovely aura of balance, grace and connection. But don’t get too cozy just yet. She immediately locks eyes with Neptune, and the fantasy haze rolls in. It’s tempting to romanticize the wrong things this week or to see potential where there’s just projection. Still, Venus keeps working her magic through trines with Uranus and Pluto midweek, stirring up unexpected sparks and deeper connections. Love, art and inspiration may arrive from strange places, so look twice.

As the Moon moves through Cancer, Leo and Virgo this week, emotional tides will ebb and flow between sensitivity and self-expression. By Friday, the Sun in Libra squares Jupiter in Cancer, expanding our optimism but also tempting us toward indulgence. Enjoy the sweetness of the moment, but remember moderation is still key.

By the time the Moon enters Libra on Sunday, the energy softens again, reminding us that peace doesn’t mean passivity. Balance is an active choice. Keep your heart open and your boundaries strong, and trust that you are growing in the right direction.  

Love, your favorite Gemini

Aries (March 21 – April 19):

The fire from last week’s full moon is still inside you, urging motion even as the world slows. You’re restless, but that restlessness is a map; follow it toward something new instead of away from what’s old. The Sun square Jupiter expands your sense of what’s possible, but don’t mistake momentum for mastery.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20):

Venus, your ruling planet, shifts into Libra this week, and suddenly the world feels more bearable. The light softens and you can finally exhale. Daily life starts to regain rhythm, though the Venus-Neptune opposition may tangle feelings and fantasies. You might see love where there’s just reflection, or potential where there’s only comfort. Stay grounded in the physical. Jupiter’s energy tempts indulgence, but your real nourishment comes from simplicity.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20):

With your ruler Mercury now in Scorpio, your thoughts tunnel deep beneath the surface. Curiosity feels like you’re no longer just asking questions, but rather you’re investigating meaning and getting lost in thought. The Sun square Jupiter inflates your ambition and your words, which could make you magnetic or misunderstood — depending on how you channel it. Try not to rush to conclusions or broadcast everything you find.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22):

As always Cancer, you like to think with your emotions first and logic later. This week, you’re pulled between comfort and curiosity. While Jupiter expands your emotional range, Venus in Libra asks for gentleness in how you share it. Pluto’s direct motion highlights your seventh house of partnership. You may feel a subtle power shift in relationships or a realization about control and trust; let that insight guide how you give and receive care. By Sunday, as the moon enters your sign again, you’ll crave solitude.  

Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22):

The moon moves through your sign midweek, heightening your energies. It’s your moment to stand up straight and let the world see what you’ve been building internally. Still, the Sun square Jupiter can make your confidence spill into awkward over-performance. Remember to stay level headed, Leo. Ask yourself which spotlight is worth standing under.

Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22):

Venus enters Libra, shifting the focus from improvement to enjoyment. You’ve been running on analysis for too long. This week, you’re reminded that beauty doesn’t need to be earned. Neptune’s opposition to Venus may blur intentions, so be sure to listen to your intuition. The moon in Virgo grounds you late in the week, helping you sort through both your emotions and your calendar. Listen to your body; it often knows before you do.

Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22):

Your season continues, and your planetary ruler Venus finally comes home. You might feel your charm turning up, inviting ease and affection. But as Venus opposes Neptune, what feels aligned might be laced with illusion. Try to enjoy the beauty of the present without needing it to last forever. The Sun square Jupiter challenges you to grow responsibly and expand your world without losing your balance.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21):

Mercury and Mars traveling through your sign sharpens your instincts this week. You’re persuasive, but maybe a little too persuasive. Wield that power carefully. Pluto, your ancient ruler, stations direct, giving you back a sense of control that’s been quietly rebuilding for months. Use it to transform, not dominate. This is a week for strategic silence; what you don’t say will speak volumes.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21):

You are ruled by Jupiter, and with the Sun squaring your planet this week, your optimism expands to new levels. Everything feels possible, but that is both your gift and your trap. Try to separate the call of adventure from the need to escape. Venus in Libra harmonizes your friendships and reminds you that connection doesn’t always require motion. By the weekend, the moon in Leo rekindles your sense of purpose. Follow that spark, but don’t forget to rest.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19):

Pluto will end its five-month retrograde on Monday, and you’re likely to feel it first, like a weight shifting somewhere deep beneath your armor. The last several months have been about endurance instead of expansion, but now you’re ready to rebuild stronger foundations. Venus in Libra blesses your career and public life, smoothing over sharp edges and helping others see the effort behind your composure. The Sun square Jupiter pushes you to think bigger, but remember: Expansion without alignment only exhausts. Move deliberately, not defensively.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18):

You’ve been dismantling old versions of yourself piece by piece, and now you’re finally seeing the plan. Venus in Libra helps you reconnect with community, softening the solitude that transformation often brings. The Sun square Jupiter expands your worldview, reminding you that your evolution doesn’t isolate you; it invites others to rise, too. Be patient, growth is still coming.

Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20):

This week, you may find yourself idealizing someone or revisiting a dream that never quite fit. Maybe, dear Pisces, the universe wants you to revisit a lesson. Mercury in Scorpio deepens your intuition, making it easier to sense truth through tone, not just words. Let that guide you through any confusion. By the weekend, the moon in Libra helps you re-center, reminding you that boundaries are an act of care, not fear.
