Matters of the heart will go from cold to hot this weekend, making it an extra complicated time for romance. On Friday, Venus squares off with Saturn. Combined with Saturn turning retrograde the same day, it’s possible that your heart will ache over not being able to get something you want out of love — at least not without a lot of internal work ahead. You must take responsibility for the current state of your love life, no matter what the details.

Then, on Saturday the tide suddenly turns. Venus and Pluto will be at a supportive sextile. The will to conquer all in love dominates. You’ll go from licking your wounds to hunting your prey. A Scorpio Moon all weekend long adds to the intensity. The Sun trine Mars on Saturday = Sexy!
