Is an intense urge to buy something bubbling up? What feels like a must-have today could quickly lose its shine once Venus turns direct. Pluto amplifies desire, making that luxury item, tech gadget or trendy purchase seem life changing. But watch out for buyer’s remorse. Before you do anything, pause. Will this truly add value to your life, or is it just a fleeting obsession?

Domestic matters move higher up your agenda, as the Sun glides into Aries for the coming month or so. This looks to be a time of new beginnings, and you may be ready to start by throwing out everything that’s cluttering up your space. But the coming weeks are also excellent for some self-care. Don’t dismiss this as you’ll benefit so much from being kind to yourself.

Today’s Quarter Moon in your sign ties in with luscious Venus, which suggests that something good is about to happen on the home front. If a plan has come to fruition and everything is finally slotting into place after a lot of hard work, perhaps it’s a reason for a celebration. Need to take a bold step forward to finish something? Get started and watch as it all comes together.

Your creative side is peaking, so writing, art and imaginative projects will flow well. When it comes to closing deals or signing contracts, go easy. Things may not be as they seem. Plus, your focus shifts to home and family strands, so enjoy decluttering and organising. Eager to create a space that feels fresh and functional? Avoid big makeovers while Venus is retrograde.

Your ruler Saturn is the wise guy of the zodiac, and as he merges with the Lunation of the 14th this month, he’s asking you to choose your words with care over the next six months. And with Venus and Mercury, the relater and the communicator planets respectively, both in retrograde, what you text, message or email could prove very important. You may also hear from someone from your past, perhaps a person you knew locally or in your family. It may not be easy to open up, but there could be a chance of some kind of reconciliation.
