Leo (July 23–August 22)
Thursday’s shift of Mars into a favourable alignment with your sign is the final indicator you’ve been waiting for–take on that project requiring energy and a go-getter attitude. Do you have a mountain to conquer, a chore that requires muscle, or an idea you need to lead the charge on? There is no better time than now. While that is often a great motto for life, it’s particularly relevant for you, now. Mars, ruling energy and drive, will be hosted by sister fire sign Aries, so you are fully charged thanks to the shared element. It’s like putting more fuel on the fire for fire signs. Activating your sphere of expanding horizons through travel, broadcasting, publishing, and higher study, make moves that effect change in your life. This is a fresh cycle, like spring on steroids, so spring clean and start anew.
Virgo (August 23–September 22)
Mars, the planet of energy, drive, and passion, is spending its last few days in your opposite sign. Have you noticed a little head-to-head opposition? Or it could be that it’s been on the passive-aggressive side. If so, dodge and weave right back. While you’re to the point, sometimes it’s easier to not take the bait to preserve your sanity. Yes, you can throw down the tennis racket, not play the game, and sit it out. Sometimes resistance is not overt. And sometimes, perhaps this week, it’s wise to flow with the path of least resistance, i.e., go around, not through. On Thursday, Mars heads into Aries, the hot-tempered fire sign that ‘rules’ Mars. While this isn’t your style, it is certainly useful, so make the most of the additional energy. If people are loud, pushy, bossy, or inconsiderate, don’t take it personally. Get back on that court and treat each slight as a game of tennis. They made their move; now you make yours.
Libra (September 23–October 23)
Get ready to rumble, or in this case, ready to rumble some more. Mars is the planet of energy, drive, and represents the part of us all that kicks in to either fight or flee to live another day! On Thursday, Mars muscles up in Aries, your opposite sign. Partnerships take the heat, so be sure the temperature is set to exciting. The minute things look too hot to handle, step out of the ring and adhere to your own rules of engagement, not someone else’s, if they cross the line of civility. Get active one-to-one. That could be with your bestie, bae, or a collaborator. If you’re hoping someone will take on a leadership or active role, check to be sure you’re not projecting your own ability to lead or take control. Remember that power is best shared, so don’t hand it over. On another note, an exciting Marsy type may enter your life now. That could be a decisive go-getter. Teamwork makes the dream work, so work together.
Scorpio (October 24–November 21)
As la luna progresses through your sign over the weekend, you’ll be forgiven for savouring your privacy with your closest friends, partner, or in your own delicious company. Even if you’re an outgoing Scorpio, yes, they exist in the wild, somewhat, at heart, your nature still wants what it wants. And that’s depth, honesty about the things that matter (usually not fit for polite conversation), and intense emotional connection (among many other things). So move through the waters of your feelings, thoughts, and universal questions. Are large language models equipped to answer some of your deepest queries? Perhaps. Give them a try, they’re great for research, although you’ll have to make of it what you will. By Thursday, Mars shifts into Aries, livening up your sphere of work and wellness. Put your ideas to the test, and use the cosmic rocket fuel to power a project, direction, or physical outlet.
