Overview: What's happening this week with Venus, the goddess of love and relationships, and Eros, the god of erotic love.


LoveScopes

 

Bottom Line: Venus is retrograde in the assertive sign of Aries this week, and will stay in this "backwards" motion until April 17th. This suggests caution and reticence when it comes to love feelings--and expressing those feelings. Better days for love occur on Tuesday to Thursday.

Note: If you know your Ascendant, reading your horoscope for your Ascendant will give a more accurate forecast.

Note: These horoscopes interpret the positions of Venus, Mars, the current New Moon cycle, and Eros relative to your sign. These cycles last longer than a week, and thus interpretations will not change from week to week until the factors themselves change signs.

Aries and Aries Ascendant: Venus is in Aries, and with Venus now in your own sign--a blessing indeed--you're feeling on top of the world. It's all about you, and you're paying attention to your image and mannerisms. You probably won't need to do much to attract attention, but anything that boosts your feelings of self-worth will help you benefit from this exciting transit. The rest of the world seems to be speaking your love language right now. Turn on the charm! It's a great time to exert your personal influence, as you are coming across as especially cooperative and graceful. Your people skills are above par. You have romantic energy working for you big time. Your love life is bound to step up a notch. It's a passionate time, although you are unlikely to be displaying a whole lot of self-discipline. Note that Venus is retrograde in Aries, and will be until April 17th, and there can be some misunderstandings between lovers. Mars is in Aquarius, bringing heat, urgency, and vitality to your friendships. A New Moon in Pisces launched a cycle in which privacy and recuperation are the focus. This is an especially spiritual cycle for you--a time when you renew your energy and consider what things are important to you, and what things have run their natural course. With the god of erotic love, Eros, in your sector of friendships, the lines between friends and lovers could blur. You may be a little detached on a sexual level for the time being. You are more intrigued by the unusual, finding variety exciting in your sex life during this cycle.

Taurus and Taurus Ascendant: Venus is in Aries, the sign just behind yours, placing the goddess of love in your solar twelfth house. This cycle indicates that you're more attracted to secrets, whispers, and private affairs for the next while. Inspired and imaginative sexuality is on the agenda with Venus in your privacy sector. It's a cycle in which all that is hidden and private attracts. Until April 11, you are bound to find love in hidden or unexpected places. Your dreams and intuition are telling you something—and it's magical. In love, it's best to avoid taking premature action. You're laying low, and that's just fine. Unconditional love is the way to go. You are called upon to be selfless, to help, to understand, and to serve. It could be hard to find satisfaction if you don't go this route. You are more impressionable now, and in the mood for secrets. This cycle could mark the beginning of a secret affair. Also, circumstances or your own reserve may prevent you from openly declaring or expressing your love needs. Love yearnings that cannot be fulfilled in any direct way arise. Hold off on decisions about love for now. Lay low, reflect, and enjoy. This is a quiet cycle that is part of a natural process. For some, it's a period of letting go in preparation for the Venus in Taurus cycle that begins June 6th. Note that Venus is retrograde in Aries, and will be until April 17th, and there can be some misunderstandings between lovers. Mars is in Aquarius, bringing heat, urgency, and vitality to your public life and to your career and public life. A New Moon in Pisces launched a cycle in which socializing and networking are the focus. It's time to expand your social circle and to make more contact with groups and friends. Eros is in Aquarius, placing this sensual asteroid in your solar tenth house, and erotic undertones may be found on the job. You may also display more responsibility towards your sexual partners during this cycle.

Note: These horoscopes interpret the positions of Venus, Mars, the current New Moon cycle, and Eros relative to your sign. These cycles last longer than a week, and thus interpretations will not change from week to week until the factors themselves change signs.

Gemini and Gemini Ascendant: Venus is in Aries, placing the goddess of love in your solar eleventh house. Bring a spirit of friendship into existing partnerships, and if you are single, look for opportunities in groups and with or through friends. Friends are bound to lean on you a little, and it feels good. Remember that you are at your most magnetic when you're expressing your humanitarian side openly, schmoozing with friends, and enjoying group activities. It's all about friendship and camaraderie now. During this Venus cycle (which lasts until April 11th), you are bound to meet with people who share common ideals or purposes. Your especially friendly, cooperative attitude is an integral part of your charm this month. You need and want to socialize now. Differences and discordant tendencies between people you love are almost nonexistent during this period. This is an easy, flowing position for Venus. Take advantage of the smooth, magnetic energy by surrounding yourself with people. Note that Venus is retrograde in Aries, and will be until April 17th, and there can be some misunderstandings between lovers. Mars is in Aquarius, bringing heat, urgency, and vitality to your desire for adventure, higher learning, and travel. A New Moon in Pisces launched a cycle in which career matters come to the fore. Feeling secure and comfortable on the job is important to you now and until the next New Moon on March 26th. Showing your authority and a "take charge" attitude is important now, but gentleness is important as well. Eros, the god of erotic love, is in your adventure sector - a very expressive position! Adventure and self-expression are the themes in your sexual life. It's time to come out of the woodworks. You feel considerably more free about expressing your sexuality. If you happen to be traveling during this cycle, a romantic adventure may be on the agenda! You also display a stronger zest for life in general during this cycle. 

Note: These horoscopes interpret the positions of Venus, Mars, the current New Moon cycle, and Eros relative to your sign. These cycles last longer than a week, and thus interpretations will not change from week to week until the factors themselves change signs.

Cancer and Cancer Ascendant: Venus is in Aries, placing the goddess of love in your solar tenth house. You are more attractive when you show your responsible, managerial, ambitious, and constant side during this Venus cycle. Having a steady and reliable sexual partner is especially attractive to you now. Don't phone in sick this month! Love can be found on the job, or erotic undertones may be in play. Socializing and making friendly contacts at work can help boost your career. Cooperation and a focus on harmony and understanding benefits you professionally or enhances your reputation and public standing. Attending an important social occasion or festivity may put you in the public eye as well. A romance or beneficial friendship that begins as a business alliance could be part of the picture. You may also feel you are married to your career right now because quite a bit of your energy is invested there and/or you love what you're doing at the moment. You may make a good friend or meet someone especially charming through your work. Note that Venus is retrograde in Aries, and will be until April 17th, and there can be some misunderstandings between lovers. Mars is in Aquarius, bringing heat, urgency, and vitality to your intimate relationships. A New Moon in Pisces launched a cycle in which self-expression and adventure are on the agenda. It's a good time to travel, learn, and do things you normally don't do. With Eros in the most intimate sector of your chart, your magnetic appeal lies in your depth and ability to be intimate. It's all or nothing for you right now! Superficial and casual relationships simply don't cut the mustard. More deeply passionate expressions are now on the agenda.

Leo and Leo Ascendant: Venus is in Aries, placing the goddess of love in your adventure sector. This is an expressive and outgoing position for Venus. You are more obviously magnetic during this cycle. It's a wonderful position for Venus, so take advantage by spreading your good humor. It's time to get noticed. During this cycle, you're at your most magnetic when you're being adventurous. If you feel you're stuck in the same old routine, do yourself a favor and plug into your interests. Do something you haven't done before, and you're more likely to attract who and what you want. Expressing your philosophical point of view is best right now. A deep discussion could take your heart forward by leaps and bounds. Different people (those who you don't normally consider your "type") attract you. You're looking for new and different people, and experiences. The exotic and the unknown now have more appeal to you than the familiar. Sharing your philosophical interests with a romantic partner may be especially appealing now. Note that Venus is retrograde in Aries, and will be until April 17th, and there can be some misunderstandings between lovers. Mars is in Aquarius, bringing heat, urgency, and vitality to your close partnerships. "Heated discussions" with a close partner may be part of the picture for the next few weeks. Make sure the competitiveness you feel in your relationships is kept at a healthy level. Close personal relationships may be especially demanding or active for the next while. A New Moon in Pisces launched a cycle in which intimacy and sharing issues become especially important to you. This is an especially good cycle for you to learn more about your deepest needs and desires. It's also a good time to break a bad habit. Eros is in your partnership sector, opposing your Sun, and putting sexuality on your mind more than ever. You need someone special (and perhaps a commitment) in order to feel truly satisfied. Your partner's romantic or sexual desires may throw you for a loop, but if you listen closely and non-defensively, you will learn a whole lot about your lover. Working on, or resolving to work on, relationships that are mutually supportive is a good idea at this time. If you find yourself sensitive to the feeling of lacking support from partners, this may be a good time to ask yourself how companionable you are, and work on developing yourself in this area of life. You might just find that this is a period when you are at your most gracious—as long as you are truly listening instead of reacting! Sexual activity is stimulated now, and your partner may be the one who is most turned on.

Note: These horoscopes interpret the positions of Venus, Mars, the current New Moon cycle, and Eros relative to your sign. These cycles last longer than a week, and thus interpretations will not change from week to week until the factors themselves change signs.

During this cycle, it feels especially sexy and rewarding to keep secrets. Be a good listener, trust your instincts, and connect with your innermost desires. Tuning into your partner's point of view will help improve your love life considerably right now. Your intimate relationships are intensified, and either you or your partner (or, ideally, both of you!) want a deeper, more intimate and meaningful union. This is an excellent cycle under which to work on resolving differences in values or problems with joint finances in a close relationship. Beware of suspiciousness. Note that Venus is retrograde in Aries, and will be until April 17th, and there can be some misunderstandings between lovers. Mars is in Aquarius, bringing heat, urgency, and vitality to your daily routines and work. A New Moon in Pisces launched a cycle that emphasizes partnerships and partnering. Your special someone might be asserting him or herself. Do your best to listen. Feel out your partner's comfort zones. In the long run, you'll learn a whole lot about how you can take your relationship further. This could very well be the start of a new relationship for singles. Keep your eyes open. Eros is in your work and health sector. Sexuality becomes very much a part of your routine--you recognize it for both its mental and physical health benefits during this cycle. For the time being, you may seek renewal through sex, with a strong conviction that sex is healthy and good for you. You may be especially focused on pleasing your partner during this cycle.

Because you are very comfortable with your sexuality, you can help your partner overcome any sexual hang-ups they may have.

Security actually turns you on now, and others will find your assertiveness in this area mighty attractive. You may be inclined towards more sexual possessiveness during this cycle, and "self-love" could increase along with a greater urge for physical satisfaction of your sexual needs. For the time being sexual intricacy is not as attractive. Your sexual nature is now rooted in the senses.

This makes you hard to ignore! You're wearing your passions on your sleeve, and you're getting a lot of attention. You're prouder than ever, and you're likely looking for instant gratification! A New Moon in Pisces launched a cycle for you in which sensual pleasure and comfort levels are the focus. It's time to get in touch with exactly what pleasures and comforts you. In the long term, this will allow you to share yourself more sincerely with others in an intimate way, as you will be bringing a more self-assured "you" into your relationships. Eros is journeying through your own sign, making this an exceptional period overall for romance and sexuality. We're all tuning into your romantic and sexual style, and this can feel pretty fabulous for you. Increased sexual activity and/or desire is featured in this Eros cycle. Opportunities for sexual fulfillment abound. During this cycle, you may easily and quickly become infatuated. Your sexual attractions are formed quickly, and you prefer to do the pursuing in relationships for the time being.

A New Moon in Pisces launched a cycle in which you, your mannerisms, and your appearance are the focus. This cycle is sure to give you a big boost of energy and your fair share of attention until the next New Moon on March 26th. Eros is in Aquarius and moving through your privacy sector. What goes on in closed quarters is what turns you on the most. Share a dream or a secret with your lover, and it's bound to boost your sex life! There may be a sexual lull in your life during this period. However, there is an equal possibility that you can improve your sex life by bringing more spirituality and fantasy into the picture. Unusual sexual fantasies, attractions, and dreams could feature now. Listen to what your subconscious is telling you in this regard. You may discover new facets to your sexuality if you do.

Overview

Venus is in Aries all week.

Venus is in Aries from February 2-April 11. In Aries, love is spontaneous and direct. The chase is very exciting to us under this fiery influence. We are bold, fresh, and a little impatient when it comes to matters of the heart. We don't look back with Aries energy. We are not interested in saying sorry or dwelling on the past. It's a brand new day! It's time to make things work right now. Aries is known for a love of the chase and the conquest, but Aries love can be longstanding as long as it remains relatively fresh. Aries is blunt--there's no sugar-coating with Aries. This can sting, but rarely is Aries energy mean or petty. Saying it like it is is important to Aries. Desires are strong and expressed spontaneously, enthusiastically, and directly. Aries prefers to seduce rather than be seduced, to chase rather than be chased.

Venus is in a Fire sign and Mars is in an Air sign. Fire and Air are compatible elements. As such, fulfilling our romantic and sexual needs at once is easier than usual. Spontaneous, open to new experiences and experimentation, and sociable, we are independent and interesting lovers during this cycle. Although we tend to get straight to the point on a romantic level, we also value a lover who we can talk to about pretty much everything under the sun. In love, we are warm yet objective. We are fun, exciting, and inspired. We need to watch for restlessness and the tendency to jump into unrealistic scenarios too quickly. At times, we can intellectualize sex, sort of holding love at bay during this period. Other times, we have bursts of daring and spontaneity in this area. We are especially capable of reinventing ourselves and our desires so that we recover rather quickly from relationships that end and so that we can pour ourselves into a new one if need be. We can be quite flirtatious now, looking for fun.

A New Moon in Pisces occurred on February 24th. With the New Moon in Pisces, a cycle that runs until the next New Moon on February 24th, it is a good time to commit to personal goals that express the positive energies of the sign of the Fish--intuitive, dreamy, artistic, humane, sympathetic, sensitive, compassionate, perceptive, and tender--and consider how to positively incorporate these qualities into our lives. We may make some Pisces-related resolutions for our love relationships: learn to accept imperfections in ourselves and our lovers, put aside time to spend with our partners in peaceful and rejuvenating activities, learn to let some things go (such as judgments and petty annoyances), or share a dream with our partners. The path we are to take with this New Moon is towards compassion, understanding, empathy, service, and acceptance.

This week:

Venus is in retrograde motion. It's a sensitive time for relationship dynamics and romance. Avoid major decision making about love this week. However, Venus forms, or rather re-forms, a pleasing sextile to Jupiter, active Monday through Thursday. This aspect generates a happy, friendly, and optimistic attitude. People are a little more outgoing and sociable. On Friday and Saturday, Venus semi-squares Mars, and tensions in relationships that generally have to do with a lack of understanding surface. Attempting to satisfy romantic needs and assertive/sexual needs simultaneously can be challenging.

Eros is in Aquarius from Monday, March 9th.

Eros is in Aquarius from March 9-May 8. ( in ) Eros in Aquarius is a more intellectual position for the god of erotic love. We are intrigued by the unusual, finding variety exciting. The detachment of Aquarius can point to finding sensuality in non-contact scenarios (example on the phone or internet) in addition to contact ones. Sexual creativity is one of the strengths of this position. Our open minds with regards to sex can stimulate creativity in our partners. 

Timing and the Moon: Best Times to Have a First Date This Week: According to the principles of timing with the Moon, a window of opportunity occurs this week from Thursday, March 12th, at approximately 4:45 PM EDT, until Friday, March 13th, at approximately 6:30 PM EDT, while the Moon is in Libra. Note that Venus is retrograde, and initiatives involving personal relationships, love, romance, and finances should be approached with caution during this window.

Bottom Line: Venus is retrograde in the assertive sign of Aries this week, and will stay in this "backwards" motion until April 17th. This suggests caution and reticence when it comes to love feelings--and expressing those feelings. Better days for love occur on Tuesday to Thursday.
