The week begins with a New Moon in Scorpio, making this an ideal time to get honest about your deepest desires, reassess important relationships, and set meaningful changes in motion.
Midweek, communication and interactions with others take center stage. You may find yourself craving more excitement, romance, and creative self-expression. Opportunities may arise to revisit difficult conversations, reconnect with people from your past, and express yourself more confidently. However, finding a balance between your personal ambitions and the interests of others will be essential for creating a positive path forward.
By the weekend, Mercury and Venus will both end their retrograde periods, gradually bringing greater clarity to communication, relationships, financial matters, and your understanding of your own tastes and values.

✨ No Major Aspects
Waning Crescent Moon in Scorpio
The day encourages you to slow down, release emotional tension, and bring closure to matters that no longer require your attention. Scorpio intensifies emotions, meaning that even seemingly insignificant events may touch a nerve, while outward calm can sometimes conceal a whole range of feelings. Avoid jumping to conclusions or trying to control everything around you.
🌿 This is a good day to focus on yourself. Take your time addressing outstanding matters, organizing your personal finances, and clearing away what you no longer need—both in your physical surroundings and in your own mind.

🌑 ♏ New Moon in Scorpio — 07:01 UTC
The New Moon opens a new lunar cycle and invites you to begin with an honest conversation with yourself. Scorpio is associated with deep emotional intimacy, trust, shared resources, and inner transformation. This makes it especially important now to understand which relationships and commitments truly matter to you, where you feel safe and secure, and where it may be time to change an established pattern.
🌿 This is a good time to set intentions around your personal life, financial independence, shared finances, or psychological well-being. You don't have to make any final decisions right away. Start by simply acknowledging what you want and allowing yourself to stop ignoring it.

🗝️ 🤝 Mercury Retrograde in Scorpio Sextile Lilith in Capricorn
This aspect encourages you to address subjects that are usually easier to avoid. Retrograde Mercury brings past conversations, agreements, and unresolved issues back into focus, while Scorpio seeks to uncover the underlying reasons behind what is happening. Lilith in Capricorn adds intensity to matters involving responsibility, status, professional ambitions, and personal boundaries.
You may discover weaknesses in previous agreements, notice contradictions, or finally say something you've been wanting to express for a long time.
🌿 Calm, honest conversations grounded in facts rather than suspicions can be especially productive. At work, pay closer attention to your commitments and how responsibilities are being distributed.
❤️🔥 🦁 Venus Retrograde in Libra Sextile Mars in Leo
One of the most enjoyable aspects of the week. Venus in Libra heightens the desire for harmony, reciprocity, beauty, and equal partnerships, while Mars in Leo adds confidence, passion, and the desire to be seen. Together, these energies create an appealing combination of charm and initiative, making it easier to express attraction, capture someone's attention, negotiate, and find common ground.
Romantic connections from the past may resurface, or you may feel inspired to bring more warmth and sensuality back into an existing relationship.
🌿 Creatively, this is a favorable time for art, dance, interior design, public speaking, and projects that require not only skill but also the ability to make an impression. Pleasant encounters and valuable social connections are also possible.
At the same time, retrograde Venus serves as a reminder not to confuse the desire to be liked with genuine intimacy, or generous gestures with the need to prove something. When it comes to money, avoid impulsive purchases made for instant gratification or to maintain a particular image.

👑 🌐 Jupiter in Leo Opposite the North Node in Aquarius
The central theme is finding a balance between personal ambitions and collective interests. Jupiter in Leo seeks recognition, creative fulfillment, and opportunities to demonstrate leadership. The North Node in Aquarius symbolically points toward collaboration, new ideas, and a broader perspective on society.
You may feel a stronger desire to stand out, gain approval, or insist on your own vision of a situation. However, circumstances may remind you that the greatest opportunities often emerge through teamwork, the exchange of experience, and a willingness to listen to people who think differently.
🌿 This is a good day to discuss collaborative projects, meet new people, and participate in professional or creative communities. There's no need to abandon your ambitions, but it's important to leave room for other people's ideas. True leadership at this time isn't about being in charge; it's about the ability to inspire and bring people together.

✨ No Major Aspects
🌒 ♐ Waxing Crescent Moon in Sagittarius, entering Capricorn at 20:57 UTC
Until the evening, the Moon in Sagittarius supports optimism, curiosity, and a desire to expand your usual horizons.
🌿 This is a good time to study, plan trips, meet new people, exchange ideas, and explore opportunities for growth. After the emotionally intense days earlier in the week, you may feel the need for a change of scenery and a broader perspective on a situation.
🌒 ♑ At 20:57 UTC, the Waxing Crescent Moon moves into Capricorn, bringing a more focused and disciplined mood. Spontaneity gives way to a desire for clarity, structure, and tangible results.

💬 🔄 Mercury in Scorpio Ends Its Retrograde Period and Turns Direct
Things that have caused uncertainty, misunderstandings, or repeated conversations over the past few weeks will gradually begin to make more sense. Mercury in Scorpio encourages you not merely to exchange words, but to better understand underlying motives, notice important details, and address the issues that truly matter.
🌿 Reconnecting with people, clarifying agreements, sorting out financial obligations, and making long-postponed decisions may become easier. However, Mercury's shift into direct motion doesn't mean all delays will disappear overnight. Give yourself time to verify information and bring ongoing matters to a thoughtful conclusion.

💗 🔄 Venus in Libra Ends Its Retrograde Period and Turns Direct
Greater clarity gradually returns to relationships and questions of personal values. Venus in Libra is particularly sensitive to reciprocity, fairness, aesthetics, and the quality of our interactions. After a period of reassessment, it becomes easier to understand which relationships bring you joy, how you expect to be treated, and which compromises you're genuinely willing to make.
Your preferences regarding beauty, style, art, and shopping may also become clearer. Things that once appealed to you or seemed attractive may now appear in a different light.
🌿 This is a good day to focus on yourself, refresh your look, explore your creative side, or spend time with people whose company makes you feel comfortable.
There's no need to make life-changing decisions right away. What's more important is recognizing how your desires and perspectives have evolved during Venus retrograde. Moving forward, it will be easier to make choices that reflect them.
The week brings a mix of emotional depth, shifting perspectives, and renewed clarity.
