Two days after Mars retrograded back out of your romantic sector Mercury, his partner for the last two months leaves an adventurous part of your chart today. This ends the months spent bringing the spirit of romance and adventure together and as the focus shifts more to your relationships, keeping that alive is now up to you.

As the Moon returns for its first visit to Taurus for the year, this is both a chance for a personal check in and to test the waters when it comes to a balance between your own and your relationship needs. While this is the case with each monthly visit, as the Moon prepares to clash with planets in your relationship sector tomorrow, Mars’ return to your communication sector two days ago has you more than ready for this.

Two months after returning for what is normally a 14 to 15 day visit to your relationship sector Mercury, the planet of communication finally leaves today. After Mars left your communication sector two days ago, this leaves you with no more communication backup on either front, though with two months under your belt. Mars’ war on communication barriers combined with Mercury able to do what he does best, leaves you with everything needed to keep the communication lines open.

Two days after Mars returned to Cancer, something that is going to see him eventually clash with the Sun in your relationship sector and ahead of a Full Moon that next week will put a balance between your own and your relationship needs to the test, Mercury returns to your relationship sector today. Held back by a retrograde phase, the planet of communication has finally returned and the timing couldn’t be better.

With the Moon spending its final hours in an adventurous part of your chart at a friendly aspect to Mercury, just hours before he will leave your romantic sector today, this is a last minute chance to bring the spirit of romance and adventure together. With Mercury’s departure today ending all planetary activity on the romantic front until later in the year but planetary activity on the adventurous front continuing, the more you can combine the two the better.

Heart of the working week or not, the timing of the Moon’s return to an adventurous part of your chart today couldn’t be better. It is just a few hours later that Mercury will join the Sun in your romantic sector, all of a sudden bringing the spirit of romance and adventure together. By tomorrow the Sun and Moon will be closely aligned, making this something that will deepen over the coming days.

In a case of perfect timing, the Moon is not only spending its final hours in your relationship sector at a friendly aspect to Mercury, the planet of communication in your relationship sector but in his final hours before also leaving today. Held back by a retrograde phase Mercury should have been long gone by now but has stayed on long enough to give the Moon’s first visit to your relationship sector for the year a voice.

It is just a few hours after the Moon returns for its first visit to your relationship sector for the year that held back by a retrograde phase Mercury, the planet of communication finally joins the Sun in your relationship sector today. Mercury is only here for three weeks so will be working to make up for lost time, with a chance to focus his quest to get the communication lines open on your relationships from the start.

As the Moon wraps up its first visit to your romantic sector for the year there is change in the air. A visit that began with an alignment with the North Node, now just days away from leaving ends with an alignment with the dwarf planet Eris, in her final days in retrograde motion here. With the North Node looking to the future and Eris to the past, today’s romantically charged lunar vibes are giving you access to both.

As the Moon returns for its first visit to your romantic sector for the year, it is also returning for its last visit while Uranus is in retrograde motion here. Not due to turn direct until the end of the month, the planet of surprise, synchronicity and the unexpected is still holding the doors open to the past, with these romantically charged lunar vibes coming with a sense of built in nostalgia from the start.

Two days after Mars left your relationship sector, a visit that began with their friendly aspect ends with the Moon spending the final hours of its first visit to your communication sector for the year at a friendly aspect to Mercury, the planet of communication. With Mars gone from your relationship sector so too is the pressure, but with the Moon managing to sweep in and get the communication lines open.

While it might not be evident yet, as the Moon returns for its first visit to your communication sector for the year the timing couldn’t be better. It is over the weekend that the lunar nodes will begin their 18 month policing of a balance between your own and your relationship needs, but with a chance to get in first when it comes to having the communication lines open.
