Annnnd breathe! After a bumpy couple of weeks, we are officially done with eclipse season. That’s not to say this week is without cosmic excitement, but first and foremost this is a time for you to process.
Reflecting on the old stuff (baggage, relationships, hang-ups) that bubbled up from deep below the surface should take top priority. How did the intensity of the past fortnight make you reevaluate your sense of what feels safe and easeful?
There’s still more decisiveness to shake out – words are weapons on Monday (all timezones), a window for an unlikely win presents on Tuesday (all timezones) then confusion collides with a sense of gravitas next weekend. It’s a lot, so put self-care first wherever you’re in doubt, and don’t be afraid to set loving boundaries.
Hot tip: I always recommend you read your rising sign for the most resonant advice. If you don’t know it, you can work it out by casting your chart here. Want to learn more?

ARIES AND ARIES RISING
With the Sun, Mercury and Mars all stirring the pot around the hidden parts of your identity, this week could bring a brooding quality to proceedings. Get the jump on the energy by seeking a second opinion, speaking to a trusted confidante or teeing up some therapy. Handling things head on will help you make cosmic compost out of anything tricky that comes up.
TAURUS AND TAURUS RISING
Give yourself a minute to compose yourself after what has been an epic two weeks…well, two years. While the mood might still be intense, there’s at least some visibility around where you’re going/what you’re doing/who you’re moving along the road with. Side note: choose your words carefully because your ability to hit someone where it hurts looks more heightened than usual.
GEMINI AND GEMINI RISING
There’s a decisive quality to this week that could have you feeling a little more emphatic about things than usual. Put that sharpened mental grit to good use by tackling something difficult, sensitive or strategic. Come next weekend Saturn’s station could help clarify a question mark that’s been hovering over your work. If you’re feeling dazed (blame Neptune and Venus), reframe things as around how they’ll impact you long-term.
CANCER AND CANCER RISING
There’s some serious soul searching to be done this week as Mercury, Mars and the Sun challenge you to dig deeper to find your own personal truth. Getting to the bottom of a situation will require digging but there’s plenty of support on hand for you to figure out what’s really going on. Keep your eyes and ears peeled for new info next weekend (all timezones) and remember that fact is often stranger than fiction.
LEO AND LEO RISING
There’s a flurry of activity at home this week that could make dealing with family (or flatmates) a little more er, ‘heightened’ than usual. Strategy is everything; so if you’re feeling overcommitted (highly likely around Friday/Saturday), don’t be afraid to step back or put some firm boundaries in place. It may be met with pushback but ultimately it’s for the best in the long run.
VIRGO AND VIRGO RISING
There’s serious chats on the horizon as Saturn’s station next weekend asks you to get serious about something or someone close to your heart. After four months of soul searching, it’s time to move forward and get on with things. You’ll be all fired up for action but be warned the way you words things could land a little sharper than you intend. With Mars and Mercury making you especially direct, there’s every chance you could shoot for the heart – without meaning.
LIBRA AND LIBRA RISING
A little bit of forensic accounting, or at least strategic financial reflection could be just what the doctor ordered this week. With Mars burning a hole in your pocket, you might feel as though cash is slipping through your fingers. Don’t bury your head in the sand, now is the time to take control and figure out where your money is really going. Next weekend, Saturn’s station acts as a trigger to get serious about your health and wellbeing. If you’ve gone off the rails lately, there’s never been a better time to reactivate your ClassPass.
SCORPIO AND SCORPIO RISING
There’s no shortage of action this week with Mercury, Mars and the Sun filling you with all the swagger. ‘Getting it done’ will be your signature scent, as you’re emboldened to rip the band aid off a situation or a relationship that’s been dragging you down. The momentum is exciting but be warned you could very easily overcommit yourself (or someone you love) by the end of the week so try to walk purposefully rather than frantically sprint.
SAGITTARIUS AND SAGITTARIUS RISING
How’s your bedroom looking? With the skies ushering in some very clear and distinct messages in your dreams, clean sheets and uncluttered bedsides tables could help you wake up a little clearer. Next weekend, Saturn’s station could issue a ‘now or never’ kind of feel around where you’re living. Now is the time to think long-term about where (or how) you want to live behind closed doors and make sure you aren’t romanticising alternate pathways – the grass is not always greener.
CAPRICORN AND CAPRICORN RISING
If friends are driving you to distraction this week (and they very well could), be on alert that off-handed comments could land like a bullseye. With Scorpio season sharpening your tongue, throwing down the gauntlet without meaning to is a very real occupational hazard. On the weekend, a little bit of tough love or a tricky situation with extended family could have long-ranging implications. Now is the time to be strategic.
AQUARIUS AND AQUARIUS RISING
It’s all happening this week as you scramble to play catch-up, post-eclipse. There’s no rest for the wicked with Mars, the Sun and Mercury joining forces to hasten any big shifts that came out of the past fortnight. Things could move quickly but with Saturn stationing next weekend, getting real about the financial implications will be a sober but necessary undertaking.
PISCES AND PISCES RISING
Big realisations and deep truths are coming in hot this week as Scorpio delivers all the feels. As the consequences of eclipse season start to settle, making sense of what they mean for you in a practical sense will be top of mind. What comes next, especially when it comes to your place in the world (whether that’s the neighbourhood you’re living in, or your plans to go OS) will be a major consideration.
