Aquarius Monthly Love Horoscope

Fired up or tired out? Your love life could swing in both directions this month. On the sizzling side, red-hot Mars is in Leo until November 25, pumping up the passion in your committed relationships house. And it doesn’t stop there. Mars will spend the rest of the year in Virgo and your eighth house of merging and intimate connections. The Gemini full moon on November 24 could also bring mistletoe magic—perhaps a passionate encounter that leads to much more. For coupled Aquarians, ‘tis the season to get extra-close to the one you love.

But…don’t smother them! Or fence yourself in, for that matter. Until November 13, love planet Venus and communicator Mercury are both tangled in retrogrades, which could bring pressure from work or travel planning. Be mindful not to take the stress out on your closest people, especially since impatient Mars can give you a short fuse. An ex could ping you from afar, sliding into your DMs and making you forget why you broke up in the first place. Opening that door could either send the skeletons tumbling out…or maybe you’ll realize that timing wasn’t on your side the first go-round and it’s worth a second chance.

Consider all possibilities once Venus corrects course, especially while it remains in Libra and your “why the heck not?” ninth house until December 4. After that, you’ll be looking at prospects through a more serious lens and evaluating their long-term potential. Until early December, Venus in your ninth house of travel and expansion makes you hungry for fresh experiences. Plan a weekend escape, explore a new culture together or reconnect with a long-distance friend. Then Venus returns to your tenth house of status and long-term goals; you may be ready to make things official before the year is over.

Before Venus leaves Libra, it locks into a tense opposition with wounded healer Chiron in Aries and your communication zone on November 28. If you’ve been holding back your feelings for fear of saying the wrong thing, this reflective transit helps you find the words. After a long retrograde season, you might have a few things to apologize for or clarify. Give the other person the benefit of the doubt and speak your truth.
