You are playful, spirited, and totally unique in your self-expression. Anyone who knows you thinks you are “one in a million”. As likeable as you are, some may be intimidated by your blunt approach, perhaps taking your many jokes a little too seriously. Underneath, you are far more sensitive and spiritual than you appear. Your memory is extraordinary and your talents are many. You love a good debate, and with your sharp mind, generally win!

Venus is the planet of beauty, art and love, ruling over romance, partnerships, sex and style. Yeah, baby!
As Venus moves through each zodiac sign, the love planet takes on a slightly different erotic personality. For example, in Aries love gets bold, while in Cancer it gets cozy.
And if you know what zodiac sign Venus is in currently (it moves from one zodiac sign to the next in about one month), it can help you deal with matters of the heart more successfully.
Here’s a quick glance at the style of love and flirting Venus has in every zodiac sign:
Venus in Aries is all fire! Expect passion, enthusiasm and some rough handling!
Venus in Taurus is sensuous and affectionate. You like to feel secure in love, so take your time and build up your passion slow, steady and strong.
Venus in Gemini is talkative and curious. Make mental connections with your partner to turn them on.
Venus in Cancer is nurturing and attentive. You love to please your partner, and are super sentimental.
Venus in Leo is creative and affectionate. When in love, you radiate joy toward your partner and the surrounding world!
Venus in Virgo is practical, and very focused on your partner’s needs. You strive for perfection in relationships.
Venus in Libra is energetic and partnership oriented. Your relationships are harmonious, and sex is an art performed with style.
Venus in Scorpio is sizzling and intense. Your passion is powerful, but you can be possessive and controlling in love.
Venus in Sagittarius is feisty! You’re friendly and flirtatious, and love is an adventure you’re eager to explore
Venus in Capricorn is cool on the outside, but hot to trot inside. You take your time with matters of the heart, but you’re as dedicated to your lover as you are to your work.
Venus in Aquarius is a quirky lover who is turned on by intellectual matters. You can be cool and detached, but open minded and experimental in bed.
Venus in Pisces is built for intimacy, and you’re willing to please your partner in every way. You’re a creative and dreamy lover, expressing your feelings in word and song.
Have you ever met someone you’re completely — even uncontrollably — drawn to? Someone who causes your mind to scream “RUN!” while your heart and body attempt to convince you otherwise? Well, then, it looks like you’ve been caught in a bad romance.
Most of us have been there at one point or another, and the branch of relationship Astrology called “synastry” can offer incredible insight about the energy potential between you and your love. You can see what attracts you to one another and whether you’re compatible physically, spiritually and intellectually.
But did you know that relationship Astrology also offers vital clues — even warnings — about links between your birth chart and your sweetheart’s chart that may indicate a rough road together? Even more fascinating is that there are certain “red flag” indicators between charts that can almost guarantee disaster, especially when mutually shared in each chart.
Fortunately, relationship Astrology is a careful analysis of every single piece of the puzzle, so one or two tricky aspects should not scare you away from following your heart. In fact, we tend to learn our most valuable life lessons from relationships and partners who test us. This makes perfect sense when you consider that the 7th house in Astrology rules not only your committed partner, but also open enemies!
If, however, your higher self is screaming at you to run for the hills, then perhaps you have several major red flag aspects between you and your partner.
Here’s a lowdown of the top indicators of potential relationship catastrophe between charts. If you and your mate share several of them, you might want to consider relationship rehab. If you’re not in a relationship yet and are considering hooking up with someone you share several of these links with, you might want to think twice.
Sun-Saturn
Any Saturn inter-aspect you share with someone suggests a certain karmic lesson the two of you contracted to work out in this lifetime. If, however, you share nothing but tense Saturn links, you may want to ask yourself if the burden is worth its weight in karmic gold.
When you and your partner share a tense Sun-Saturn link, there’s an overwhelming weight put on the Sun person. It’s as if his or her light is snuffed out due to a perceived criticism or disapproval from Saturn.
Or, the Saturn person may project this onto the Sun person and the Sun person might feel like he or she can never have fun around Saturn because there’s just too much work and responsibility associated with the relationship.
Mercury-Neptune
Even the best love match may suffer when there is a difficult Mercury-Neptune aspect. This is because Neptune acts as a bewildering force of nature when it stressfully connects to another planet.
In the case of Mercury, this means extra trouble. Communication deteriorates. The Mercury person may feel he or she can’t convey what they want to say with clarity. The Neptune person might feel that the Mercury person simply does not understand him or her.
There’s so much mutual confusion possible that eventually communication simply evaporates. At its worst, this is an indicator of outright lies or illusory communication which can erode trust.
Venus-Pluto
While incredible transcendent love is possible under the influence of a positive Venus-Pluto link, when stressed this connection can lead to an extremely obsessive and unhealthy attachment. Ultimately, power, sex and money issues that revolve around control can destroy what would otherwise be an intense bond.
Mars-Saturn
Mars is the planet that rules our ambition and drive. Saturn, when in a tense aspect to Mars, can squelch it. This is the relationship where one partner is constantly tearing down the ambitions of the other.
Ultimately, a link such as this can lead to resentment and anger. The Mars person wants to “go” and the Saturn person wants caution. Timing always seems to be off for this couple, and it may also express itself in the bedroom because Mars rules our libido.
Mars-Uranus
This exchange can lead to explosive, sudden arguments or even violence — particularly if there is a two-way exchange where person A’s Mars touches person B’s Uranus, while person A’s Uranus makes a difficult link to person B’s Mars. An unfortunate but fitting example of such a couple is Rihanna and Chris Brown.
Mars-Pluto
Sexual passion can easily lead to rough sex or even worse, such as sexually motivated abuse if these links are present in the charts of a couple. Again, it will be more likely if both members of the couple share the exchange, but even if it’s only one-way, remain cautious.
Remember, if you and your love share one of these inter-aspects, it doesn’t have to be a relationship deal-breaker. The key is awareness and a willingness to work through any difficulty together. If, however, your synastry is overwhelmed with several difficult links, the personal cost of remaining together might not be worth it. Love, after all, isn’t supposed to hurt.
*Note: The square and opposition are primarily considered the adverse links. If you have a sextile or trine aspect between planets, their energies work beautifully. If you have a conjunction, it’s an intensification of energies and you want to carefully consider the other aspects between you before you judge whether or not the conjunction is beneficial or stressful.
Saturn turns retrograde today, dear Aries, as it does for several months each year. Some of your plans might stall or require additional review before going forward. Motivation may be waning temporarily, or there could be some adjustments needed, particularly related to career, life direction, education, and publishing matters. During the shift today, you can feel especially weighed down. You’re encouraged to slow down to consider your larger plans and goals. This is not the time to rush decisions. Try to tackle things one at a time rather than wear yourself out. You can feel rather up and down about work matters. Later today, there is a shift in energy that is more future-oriented and upbeat. It may feel as if life is speeding up enough to pull you out of a funk. You come into a much stronger position as the day advances, and plans may seem to be coming together as your mood improves.
Taurus
Taurus
There can be some heavy energy hanging in the air with Saturn at a station and turning retrograde this morning, dear Taurus. You are seeing people you associate with in a different light – perhaps a little more critically or with more discrimination. There can be a sense that others are not open with you or blocking your plans. Circumstances may be such that you are reminded of the need for financial review. There can be concern about loans, debts, taxes, and shared income now. Some of you could be reviewing educational or travel plans, or dealing with delays in these areas. This is a time for slowing down and thinking about your priorities. Tune out distractions. People are especially prone to making errors of judgment now until they grow accustomed to the shift. As well, Venus, your ruler, is in a complicated relationship with Jupiter and Saturn today, and you can be feeling rather up and down about a relationship or a social/romantic situation. Later today, there is increasingly easier, more decisive energy with you.
Gemini
Gemini
With Saturn turning retrograde today, dear Gemini, you are entering a period in which you may be reviewing or possibly questioning a partnership or a partner, or you could be taking a more serious and critical look at relationships. This is a time for re-assessing matters regarding your attachments to others, and particularly commitments or frustrations regarding same. Concerns about finances, debts, taxes, and shared money can be stronger now as well. We’re not used to the heavy energy generated by a Saturn station, so we could be feeling weighed down or disoriented when in fact it’s best to take the time to think about your priorities, particularly related to partnerships and significant people in your life. Excesses in your professional and home lives can clash with partnership goals today as well. Feelings can be up and down until you arrive at a realistic place. As the day advances, however, decisions seem less weighty.
Cancer
Cancer
With Saturn turning retrograde today in your solar sixth house, dear Cancer, you are entering a several-month period in which there can be some questions in your mind about your commitment to your job, whether it’s the line of work, the company you work for, or the tasks that are required of you. You will have plenty of time to think things through, so be sure to do so before jumping to decisions. There can also be some cooling off or settling in when it comes to a partnership over the next few months, as Saturn is the natural ruler of the partnership sector in your solar chart. Saturn’s station occurs this morning, along with some difficult Venus aspects, so that it’s important to watch for errors. There may be strained relationships, largely due to up and down expectations. As the day progresses, however, your mood stabilizes and you are likely to feel very much in sync by tonight and through to tomorrow morning, particularly when it comes to duties and responsibilities.
Leo
Leo
Saturn turns retrograde this morning, dear Leo, as it does each year for several months. Saturn is currently in your creativity and expression sector, and it always rules your solar sector of health and work. There can be heavy energy surrounding your daily routines, work, romantic relationships, or creative projects. Decisions may be difficult to make, and the tendency to make errors runs high just while the shift is occurring, after which you learn to work with the energy. The cycle that lasts until mid-August is good for review and assessment of your goals, and this can revolve around your commitments to work or certain elements of your work, health programs, creative projects, and possibly a romantic affair. Aim for moderation today, in your actions and your expectations. As the day advances, you become increasingly more motivated and decisive.
Virgo
Virgo
Saturn stations and turns retrograde this morning, dear Virgo, and will remain retrograde until mid-August. Because Saturn rules your romance and creative expression sector and is currently transiting your sector of home and family, these areas of life enter a period of overall review and assessment. Some initiatives may slow down. Temporarily, until you sort things through, some of your commitments could seem less meaningful, which, by extension, can make them feel more difficult to fulfill. Domestic chores or problems in the family dynamic can weigh heavily on your mind. It’s a time for going within and examining your intentions and frustrations. Some of you could experience a slowing down of a romantic affair during the coming months, and this gives you time to reflect and review or to catch your breath. Watch for overdoing in all areas of life today. A moderate approach serves you best in the first half of the day, after which you’ll find it far easier to decide on a course of action.
Libra
Libra
Saturn stations and turns retrograde this morning, dear Libra, and you may experience some temporary loss of interest or motivation when it comes to certain learning, creative, or mental interests and projects. While you may decide to let go of certain projects, this period is more about making adjustments and re-assessing matters than about abandoning endeavors. Some things might be put on a shelf, while others may simply need editing. There can also be heaviness surrounding home and family, as you could be in the position to make changes or decisions that don’t come easily. Saturn’s retrograde lasts several months and occurs every year. The review you do during this cycle is a necessary, helpful process. However, in the week surrounding Saturn’s change of direction, including this one, responsibilities and pending decisions feel heavier. There could be a problem that pits going along with the crowd against doing your own thing creatively today. Watch for speaking too soon about a mater. As the day advances, you tend to focus more on getting things done than on making tough decisions.
Scorpio
Scorpio
Financial and business matters, issues of security and comfort, and learning or communications projects can weigh heavily on your mind today and this week, dear Scorpio, with Saturn stationary and turning retrograde in your solar second house. This is an important time for getting your finances in order, but it can be a bit of a struggle temporarily, largely due to waning enthusiasm or a feeling of being overwhelmed with responsibilities. You need to stick to it, but you might also need to review and examine your attitudes, needs, and budgets. The coming months are strong for these things. Saturn’s station wants us to slow down and get things right before jumping to conclusions and decisions. Sort, organize, and take things a step at a time for best results. Be moderate in your expectations of others today. As the day advances, life becomes less mental and more active.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius
Saturn is transiting your sign and turns retrograde today, dear Sagittarius, which will continue until the middle of August. Saturn’s retrograde is a yearly cycle that points to a period of review. On one hand this can ease some of the pressure that is on you personally, but on the other, there can be a feeling of lack of connection with why you are making the adjustments and handling increased responsibilities that Saturn’s transit to your sign requires of you. This, by extension, can actually magnify problematic areas. The trick is to understand why Saturn is testing you and to go with it. You are maturing and learning that you can rely on yourself during this phase of your life. This is also a time for financial review, and you could find that you are more hesitant about spending money or making financial commitments during this period of your life. There is a need to slow down and think about your responsibilities and duties. Try to be content doing what you need to do without worrying too much about others’ expectations. This is true in a general sense, but particularly this morning. Moderation is the key to success now. As the day progresses, emotions level out. You are emotionally geared towards some level of retreat from the regular demands of your life.
Capricorn
Capricorn
It’s especially important that you avoid pushing yourself now with Saturn stationary and turning retrograde this morning, dear Capricorn. While this cycle lasts for some time, until the middle of August, the shift of direction that is occurring now can be temporarily discouraging or disorienting. You are a little more sensitive to Saturn as it is your planetary ruler. The months ahead are strong for reviewing and reassessing your plans and goals, and not as ideal for pushing new ones forward. Today, thoughts tend to turn to past frustrations that are affecting your present. Take it easy, consider your responsibilities, and work step by step towards your goals. Watch spending and overdoing pleasures now. As the day advances, you’re likely to feel far less weighed down by decisions and more interested in getting things done, which improves your mood.
Aquarius
Aquarius
Saturn is stationary and turns retrograde today, dear Aquarius. This cycle that lasts until mid-August points to a period of review when it comes to your larger, long-term, life-plan goals and responsibilities. Your commitments or dedication to friends or group activities that you’re part of can be matters that you begin to question today and over the next while. You are now in the position to review what your friends or teams mean to you, ideally with the goal of improving your connections. There can be a feeling of heaviness surrounding your obligations and/or a friendship or group right now. Try not to succumb to the feeling that everything needs to be solved and resolved immediately. Increases or expansion, particularly related to finances, seem to lead to stress rather than joy right now. Aim to simplify your life rather than add to it at this time. As the day advances, you’re in an especially positive, action-oriented frame of mind.
Pisces
Pisces
Saturn is stationary today as it turns retrograde, dear Pisces, and this yearly cycle lasts until mid-August this year. This is a strong period for reviewing your goals, particularly your professional ones. However, it’s not ideal energy for pushing brand new projects ahead. This can also be a time when friendships are a little more complicated. Focusing on realizable goals, and stopping to appreciate what’s already in place, will bring the most satisfaction now. Your bigger ideas need more time, edits, and definition before they’re set into motion. Others may be promising more than they can deliver. A wait-and-see attitude can come in handy right now. Emotions can be swinging in the first half of the day. Getting in touch with what you truly desire is not easy right now, but promises to be rewarding and stabilizing. Later today, you’re in a more decisive frame of mind, and your powers of attraction are strong.
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!
