The climate
The Sun neither pushes nor holds you back: the period plays out on the other planets.
Love and relationships
Sweetness in the air: Venus makes it easier to draw closer, especially if you make the first move. Mars in your sign also warms up your intimate life: passion and impatience go hand in hand.
Work and money
Mercury in your sign: your mind is sharp, your words carry. Write, negotiate, express yourself. Mercury is neutral: exchanges are ordinary, neither eased nor muddled. With Mars at home in your sign, you have fire: launch what you have been putting off. Just watch the words that leave too fast. Jupiter in square: beware of overconfidence or promises that are too big. Check the numbers. Saturn at home in your sign: high standards, possible fatigue, but also solidity. Shed the superfluous, keep the essential.
Energy and body
High energy: your body follows your desires. This is the moment for a workout, a long walk or a big clear-out.
The advice
A day to seize: take an initiative you have been postponing for weeks.

Frequently asked questions
Is this monthly horoscope the same every year?
No: it is computed from the planetary positions of this precise month (sign ingresses, new and full moon, retrogrades), dated to the minute.
What does “solar house” mean?
Your sign is placed in house 1 and we count from there: a planet in the next sign is in your solar house 2, and so on. It is the method of sign horoscopes; with your rising sign, the real houses are even more precise.
