Venus turns retrograde on October 5, putting various projects on hold and sending your love life into a bit of a tailspin. You know that situation you thought you had figured out? Guess again, Cancer. A sun-Pluto square on the twelfth highlights your need to be in control, but that won’t always be possible. Watch out for ego conflicts, especially with people in positions of authority like parents or employers. A Mercury-Venus conjunction on October 15 helps you express some of the romantic thoughts you’ve been keeping to yourself. Once they’re out there, you’ll probably wonder why you never said them out loud before. Remember this feeling if you ever feel shy or hesitant again. The sun enters fellow water sign Scorpio on the twenty-third, so you’ll feel the emotional intensity right away. Your intention is getting to the bottom of things, and superficial or trivial matters really don’t concern you.

There’s a Mercury-Venus sextile on September 3 that starts your month on a fun and positive note. You’ve got oodles of charm, which comes in handy when asking people for favors. Never one to take something for nothing, though, you always offer whatever you can manage in return. A Mars-Venus square on the eighth is a very sexual transit, but it can also highlight problems where there’s already tension. This is an active time (if you know what we mean!), but increased desire can lead to increased risks. Don’t forget about the consequences. The new moon is in practical Virgo on September 9, limiting your indulgences. Virgo’s practical energy makes this a good time to evaluate your goals and reprioritize your to-do list if necessary. Wasting time is one of your worst pet peeves, so you’re only interested in doing what’s necessary to get the job done. A sun-Mercury conjunction on the twentieth makes you curious about a lot of different things, and it’s the perfect time to do research and interviews. Spending your free time having long discussions about a variety of topics is your idea of a good time, and why wouldn’t it be? Your thought processes are crystal clear, and your communication skills are unmatched.

Intelligent Uranus goes retrograde on August 7, giving you ample time to philosophize and think deeply about issues that matter to you personally and to the world. You might be surprised (in a good way, hopefully) to learn how much goes on behind the scenes when you pull back the curtain. The moon feels at home in your emotional sign on the eighth and puts you in touch with your innermost thoughts and feelings. You won’t fool anyone by saying you don’t care when you so clearly do. A Jupiter-Neptune retrograde trine on August 19 encourages optimism and suggests you look to your community for the closeness you’ve been yearning for. You get a lot of support through civic programs, and your life takes on new meaning when you contribute your time, money, or both to charitable causes that really mean something to you. A Venus-Pluto retrograde square on the twenty-sixth has you exploring your romantic insecurities and may have you wondering why you’ve made some of the choices that you have. If you’ve always been attracted to the wrong types of partners, you might be able to figure out why during this transit.

A trine between the sun and Jupiter retrograde on July 5 provides amazing opportunities. Luck is on your side, but the retrograde aspect of Jupiter puts a subtle spin on it. Instead of shouting your good news to the world, you whisper it to a friend, but it’s still pretty great! A special solar eclipse and new moon in your sign arrive on the twelfth, shifting your full attention to your home life and the people closest to you. Your focus is bringing security to those areas, and you’re committed to doing what it takes to overcome obstacles that are in the way of your domestic happiness. The sun leaves your sign for outgoing Leo on the twenty-second, replacing your calm energy with the Lion’s buoyant enthusiasm. Your playfulness and charm make it easy to break the ice and win over new friends or lovers. Enjoy living under the full color of Leo’s flamboyant rainbow for the next month. A full moon lunar eclipse in airy Aquarius on July 27 brings new opportunities. Aquarius loves change, so be ready to keep an open mind. Something that doesn’t sound good when you first hear it will grow on you. Say yes.
