With no planetary activity in your relationship sector, the next best thing to the Moon’s monthly visits is its return to your communication sector every four weeks. As there is no planetary activity in your communication sector either, the Moon’s return today might be the chance you get every four weeks to make it easier to give your emotional responses and relationships a voice, but with a chance to start the year the way you intend to go on.

The Moon’s departure from Taurus has not only left you more emotionally and intuitively engaged and aware, but with a sense of the shifts that have taken place on the romantic and relationship fronts since it was last here. For the first time since earlier in the year there were no planets in your relationship sector to clash with, while the Moon’s only visit while Venus, the planet of love is in an adventurous part of your chart has fed into the support for her mission to bring the spirit of romance and adventure together.

Mercury, the planet of communication hasn’t just reached his last full day in your relationship sector, but of all planetary activity on the relationship front. Over two months after returning for what is normally a 14 to 15 day visit, Mercury had left but retrograded back in, giving you the extra time and resources to not only move into 2026 aware of what you want from your relationships and what they need from you, but with the communication lines open.

While there is already standing room only in your relationship sector with the Sun, Mars, Venus and even the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment ending 2025 and starting 2026 here, there is still one planet missing. Two months ago, Mercury had been on track to be the first planet to return to your relationship sector, but instead, a retrograde turn has held him back, with the planet of communication finally returning tomorrow to put the final piece in place.

Mercury hasn’t just reached his last full day in your romantic sector, but his departure tomorrow will end all planetary activity on the romantic front until the closing weeks of 2026. While the Moon will continue to return every four weeks, as the planet of communication, before he leaves tomorrow, Mercury is all about giving your heart a voice and putting heart and mind on the same page.

The Moon might have left and wrapped up its last visit to an adventurous part of your chart for the year, but its friendly aspect to Venus, the planet of love and the rest of the planets in your romantic sector over the last few days was more than a temporary bump for the spirit of romance and adventure. Over the coming weeks, Venus and the rest of the planets in your romantic sector will draw closer to a friendly aspect to Uranus, who is in an adventurous part of your chart until April.

While the Moon will return to an adventurous part of your chart every four weeks and since Pluto’s return to your romantic sector in November 2024 until he leaves in 2044, this will see them form a friendly aspect. Until the Moon leaves in two days, this will bring the spirit of romance and adventure together, making this a good way to start the year. Especially with Venus, the planet of love less than three weeks away from kicking off the most romantically charged months of 2026.

For the first time since the asteroid Juno returned to Scorpio in April, the Moon hasn’t been able to move through your relationship sector without clashing with at least one planet there. While Juno left in October, the last planet only left Scorpio last month and as the Moon leaves, this wraps up a visit where there were fewer buttons pushed and a lot more support on the communication front.

It is just as Mercury, the planet of communication has reached his last full day in Sagittarius, that the Moon has returned in time to not only start the year in your relationship sector, but at a friendly aspect to Pluto in your communication sector. The timing is a win/win, for had it been a few days ago, the Moon would have clashed with Mercury but instead, it returns too late for that to happen, but in time to help with his mission to leave you with the communication lines open.

While the Moon has left your romantic sector and won’t follow you into 2026, as the only visit while Venus, the planet of love is in Capricorn, this is chance to end one year and start the next with the spirit of romance in the air. Especially as while the Moon has left Uranus, the planet of surprise, synchronicity and the unexpected and is still in your romantic sector and over the coming weeks, Venus will draw closer to both him and to the South Node in an adventurous part of your chart.

With no planetary activity in your romantic sector since Uranus left in November, ending 18 months of near continuous planetary activity on the romantic front, the Moon’s return in time to begin 2026 here is more than just a chance to get things off to a romantically charged start. With Uranus not only returning in April but to spend the next six years here, this is a message from the love gods to prepare for what lies ahead.

It was a given that as the Moon leaves your communication sector, this will leave you better able to give your emotional responses a voice and after a friendly aspect to the South Node in your relationship sector, especially on the relationship front. This time, this monthly visit had the added advantage of a friendly aspect to Venus, the planet of love, a day before she is due to form a friendly aspect to the South Node on the relationship front as well.
