Aquarius Monthly Love Horoscope

Talk about being in the romance zone! The love planets, Mars and Venus, are in simpatico placements until July 9, as Mars spends the whole month in Gemini and your true love sector, while Venus wraps its visit to Leo and your seventh house of committed partnerships. A relationship could turn serious in the first week of July or you might attract someone with long-term potential.

With spicy Mars in Gemini all month, your fifth house of passion and pleasure is a hot zone. The red planet only comes here every two years, amplifying your desires and giving you instant head-turner status. Make your bold moves while Mars is feeling the heat! This is no time to wait for love to "just happen." With proactive Mars putting your needs on the front burner, you have cosmic permission to be direct, whether you're choosing locations for a date or instructing a lover how and where to touch you.

Adding to the spice is vixen Venus, sashaying through Virgo and your erotic, intimate eighth house starting July 9. If you’re not feeling sexy and glamorous yet, Aquarius, this is your license to do something about it, quick! Venus will be in Virgo until August 6. 

The only pressure here is that the fifth house (where Mars is visiting until August 11) is flamboyant and flirtatious while the eighth house (Venus’ HQ until August 6) is more private and one-on-one. There could be some moments of jealousy, or you might feel torn between getting serious with one person and pursuing the many new options you’re attracting. You’ll feel this tension the most on July 29, when Venus and Mars lock into an embattled square.

With Mercury retrograde until July 23, take your time to explore before locking yourself into anything too permanent. But DO respect the agreements and commitments you’ve made. If your love interest has nothing to be threatened by, don’t dim your lights or tone down your bold personality. Their insecurity is not YOUR problem!
