Love Horoscope: Unrestrained Desire | Mars enters Aries

Hey there, it’s Luna!

Have you suddenly started to feel more motivated?

If you haven’t yet, you should expect too soon, because Mars is entering Aries today and is waking up quickly from its dreamy stay in Pisces.

When Mars is in Aries, we are more inclined to act on our desires instantly!

Now is the time to explore new possibilities and unrealized desires. Even if you’re not sure how to go about getting what you want, don’t be afraid to experiment and put yourself out there.

Don’t worry about having the perfect landing just yet, right now, you’re cleared for take off!

Leaping Before You Look

Mars in Aries is impulsive. This influence can make us accident prone, susceptible to knee-jerk reactions and making decisions that we might regret later, once we’ve had a chance to think it through.

Aries, the first sign of the zodiac, learns through trial and error by making bold moves and ramming their head against obstacles. Sometimes this is the only way to discover the path forward. Expect some tumbles as you boldly explore new possibilities. The desires you explore now will be up for revision and refinement when Mars goes retrograde this September, so don’t be afraid to dive in and reorient yourself later.

An Opportunity For Redirection

Mars usually stays in a sign for about two months. However Mars will be going retrograde right before leaving Aries this September, so it will remain in Aries until January of 2021.

Unlike Mercury, which retrogrades three to four times a year, Mars only goes retrograde every two years! So the next 6 months will be an important time where you can become crystal clear on the best use of your energy, what motivates you, and what you truly desire out of life and your relationships.

Your Personal Love Horoscope

To help you understand which area of your life will be affected the most by Mars in Aries, I’ve put together a short horoscope for you based on your Sun Sign. You can also read your Rising Sign, if you know what it is.

Aries (March 21 – April 19)

~ Exploring a New Version of Yourself ~

You feel right at home with Mars in your Sun sign of Aries. Romance isn’t the only area of your life that will be experiencing a boost, you will also have access to a wellspring of energy that will help you pursue personal goals and live your life to the fullest. Just make sure you don’t overwhelm those around you with your enthusiasm.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20)

~ Exploring New Spiritual Experiences ~

This is a time to explore your inner universe. Anything that connects you with the power of your subconscious, such as meditation, lucid dreaming or tarot will offer a fulfilling use of your energy. Physical intimacy right now can melt the boundaries of time and space. It’s important to keep one foot in this world, though. Stay balanced by going outside, getting your bare feet on the ground, and taking in your surroundings.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20)

~ Exploring New Friendships and Dreams ~

Friendships are on your mind during this transit, and Gemini LOVES to be connected. Reach out to friends and sign up for group events. You’ll feel inspired by your community right now, even if you’re only seeing them online. Important connections can be forged now that will help bring about your ideal future. You may even meet or go deeper with a friend who suddenly becomes something more.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22)

~ Exploring New Career Opportunities ~

You are motivated to succeed. This is a wonderful time to gain recognition and honor at work, which could result in a raise or getting promoted. A spark between you and a co-worker could ignite into a flame of passion under this influence. Be sure to stay in integrity and think through the consequences if you decide to mix business with pleasure.

Leo (July 23 – August 22)

~ Exploring New Perspectives ~

It’s time to fly, dear Leo. Faraway lands are calling, and while the pandemic complicates matters, you can channel your passion for freedom into a mind-expanding outlet. Learn another language, study foreign culture or philosophy. You might find yourself falling for somebody from another country or with a background quite different from your own. Any new relationship that forms under this influence will help you broaden your horizons.

Virgo (August 23 – September 22)

~ Exploring New Approaches to Intimacy ~

It can’t get anymore clear than this, dear Virgo. This transit is all about sex for you. Mars in Aries adds intensity and immediacy to your desires, and you go after what you want head first. This isn’t your usual style, but you are emboldened under this influence. As long as you don’t overwhelm the recipient of your affection, this influence can bring you and your partner to new depths of intimacy.

Libra (September 23 – October 22)

~ Exploring New Partnership Experiences ~

Partnership is on your mind during this influence. You are motivated to experience a meaningful connection with someone close to you. You might find that it is your partner, or a close associate who is expressing the energy of Mars in Aries more than you are. In this case, you’re welcome to relax and come along for the ride, so long as it’s also where you want to go!

Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)

~ Exploring New Routines ~

Has anyone told you how fit you’re looking lately? If they haven’t, you’ll probably start hearing it soon. Mars in Aries is motivating you to get into a steady routine of working out and eating right. Look for romance to spark at the gym, your local coffee shop, your work, or anywhere else you visit on a regular basis. You won’t have to go out of your way to discover an exciting, new connection.

Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)

~ Exploring New Forms of Pleasure ~

Right now you’re driven to experience everything that gives you pleasure. Creative expression on every level — whether making art, or making love — is at the forefront of your agenda. You won’t want to be bogged down with too many tasks under this influence. Instead, you will find opportunities to enjoy the sweeter, more sensual aspects of life. Try not to stir up any drama in your pursuit of pleasure.

Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)

~ Exploring New Ways To Feel Secure ~

You’re focused on your home and family under this influence. You will feel protective of your loved ones, and may be directing your energy toward creating a safer and more stable environment. Right now, nothing is sexier to you than nesting with your partner or romantic interest, eating your favorite comfort foods, and exploring deep, emotional bonds in the privacy of your home.

Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)

~ Exploring New Ways To Communicate ~

No one is going to need to ask you what’s on your mind under this influence, you’re feeling quite talkative. You will be infused with the courage and confidence to pursue your goals and express what you desire without mincing words. Intellectual stimulation can be a turn on for you, more than usual. Any trips you might take to a nearby destination could result in a hot encounter with a new love interest.

Pisces (February 19 – March 20)

~ Exploring New Values and Resources ~

Pisces aren’t typically known to be driven by money. You’re an old soul who has important spiritual work to do, but under this influence you’ll find yourself acquiring things of value. You may see a boost to your bank account while Mars is in Aries, as you are motivated to work hard for financial resources and the objects of your desire. In love, you will enjoy exploring all of your senses and may even feel indulgent.

Some Final Thoughts

Now that we’ve taken a look at your horoscope, be sure to pay attention to the opportunities and themes that appear around your passion, drive and motivation. Starting September 9th, you’ll be using what you’ve learned during your trial and error process to revisit and revise your direction.

Here’s to exploring new frontiers!
