Your balance will be tested as you navigate the final days of Libra season with plenty of Pluto drama thrown in. Keep your eyes and ears open for a moment of truth – especially next weekend. With Mercury and the Sun in cahoots, you’re likely to get a major download or “did-I-hear-that-right” confession. With Pluto involved you can bet it won’t be subtle. When you feel the tides turning, try not to flail about; this is a moment to let go, not hold on for dear life. Approach any contentious conversations with an “out with the old and in with the new!” mindset and you’ll be on the front foot.

ARIES AND ARIES RISING
The big conversations and reframes with your ride or die continues this week, hot in the heels of last weekend’s eclipse. Unravelling old baggage – whether it’s your partner or your best friend – is going to take some effort, but in the end it will be worth the discomfort. Expect a moment of insight next Friday and Saturday to help you figure out the way forward, and the practical nous to start making headway.
TAURUS AND TAURUS RISING
A big realisation around how you manage your time – or your health – is on the horizon this week. As Mercury and the Sun join forces to bring a major a-ha moment on 21st, try to stay open to the possibility you haven’t had all the information you need to make a firm decision…until now. An embodied approach to make small but manageable changes is your ticket for success.
GEMINI AND GEMINI RISING
What’s standing in the way of you truly unleashing your authentic, most artistic self? Whatever is stopping you from starting the book, picking up the paint brush or enrolling in piano, the skies are ready to give you the nudge you need. If the eclipse last weekend didn’t offer clues, expect a bolt out of the blue next weekend to help you overturn creative blocks.
CANCER AND CANCER RISING
The big shifts and shock reveals continue this week after the weekend’s eclipses highlighted some old hang-ups or tender aspects of your ego. Listen carefully to your closest confidantes; they’ll be dishing the truth serum this week and it’s something you need to hear, even if it feels a little “blegh” at the time.
LEO AND LEO RISING
A little bit of workspace clear out could do the soul good this week with the south node encouraging you to purge paperwork, unread emails and your desk drawers. Pay attention to anything you uncover especially around next weekend when intel rein or about a co-worker has the potential for explosive repercussions.
VIRGO AND VIRGO RISING
Should we, shouldn’t we? Yours or mine? The cash/property/sharing questions continue this week with the Sun and Mercury highlighting financial matters. With Venus gliding through your home sign, there’s a little more ease and by next weekend, your resourcefulness could come in very handy in finding a solution to an old problem.
LIBRA AND LIBRA RISING
The cosmic clean-up continues this week, as the planets ask you to quit holding on quite so tight and just let go already! Some unexpected news could take your breath away late in the week, but in the long run, the truth will set you free. It’s big, intense soul growth territory that could leave you feeling a little drained so listen to your body and take time out when you feel you need it.
SCORPIO AND SCORPIO RISING
Are you ready to release? The sky continues to shine a light on some not so supportive inner dialogue you’re having with yourself. Your physical challenge is to figure out what you need to do to cut it out for good. The answer could come from an unlikely source – extended family, a sibling or even a neighbour – over the weekend. Keep your eyes and ears peeled.
SAGITTARIUS AND SAGITTARIUS RISING
Breaking up is hard to do, but sometimes letting go of ideas, relationships, even long held dreams can be an act of self-preservation. With eclipse season acting as a cosmic council pickup, don’t be afraid to leave anything that doesn’t serve your higher good on the curb. If you’ve been looking for a moment to cut the cord, this could be as good a time as any.
CAPRICORN AND CAPRICORN RISING
Nothing tastes as good as cleaning up feels (don’t believe me, ask a Virgo), and this week the cosmic clean up continues. As you tie up loose ends with a work project or even a workplace, pruning back the weeds is essential homework. Think of it as a way to prepare your (professional) soil for lush new opportunities. Roll up your sleeves and get dirty.
AQUARIUS AND AQUARIUS RISING
As eclipse season continues to signal big endings and minty fresh starts, there’s some planetary support coming your way this week. Catch the wave on the weekend when an earthy, practical approach could sow the seeds for a pleasing win. Family, trusted advisors (think: getting a second opinion) and a keen connection to your gut instinct will guide you in the right direction.
PISCES AND PISCES RISING
Good news! Only one more week until you’re swimming in the much more comfortable waters of Scorpio season. Until then, the big emotional excavation that is Libra season continues. When skeletons roll out of your closet (metaphorically speaking), don’t try to stiff them back in. Now is your moment to heal and release.
