A fairly rough and at times bumpy Mars retrograde phase in your relationship sector is coming to an end, with the planet of passion due to turn direct tomorrow. A retrograde phase that began on the 21st December has at 3 separate times created some real pressure, creating many ups and downs but also an opportunity for a breakthrough. This is a day for saying your goodbyes to the past, knowing that from tomorrow it will be time to move on.

Venus, planet of love's move into your communication sector on Monday is auspicious for a number of reasons, especially on the relationship front. Here until the 1st April this creates a short period where your heart is able to find its voice and where you're able to connect authentically, speaking straight from the heart. Yet this has benefits over and beyond the voice Venus is able to give your heart for she throws Mars, still in retrograde motion in your relationship sector at the time, a lifeline. Just when things had become most stuck, it's Venus' alliance with Mars that gives both your heart and the past a voice, just days before Mars is due to turn direct on Thursday. As the tide turns, relationship and communication opportunities will continue to work hand in hand.
