With Venus retrograde in Aries and Mercury in direct, no-nonsense mode, people won’t hide their feelings — they’ll tell you outright.
Here’s your weekly horoscope for March 3–9, 2025.
Pisces, Feb 20–Mar 20
With the celestial trifecta of Sun, Saturn and Neptune in Pisces for most of March, you are this month’s undisputed star. And with Venus activating unexpected comebacks, some kind of blaze of glory rerun or recognition for who you are or what you’ve done is on this week’s star cards.
Aries, Mar 21–Apr 21
With Venus retrograde in your sign, what’s this week’s good news? Articulate Mercury in Aries helps you express what needs to be said. However, it’s best to do this before Mercury retrogrades next week! But in these dark times, as Aries Vincent Van Gogh observed, “Still, a great deal of light falls on everything”.
Taurus, Apr 22–May 21
Taurans‘ guiding planet, Venus slows down every 18 months or so to allow us to recycle old partnership stories into more workable, contemporary scripts. This week’s Venusian power outage in its most no-nonsense placement suggests an eyes-wide-open reality check on personal, public, and professional relationships.
Gemini, May 22–Jun 22
This week’s feisty energy could ignite altercations that zap Geminis‘ time, energy, and future prospects. So, pause before you post and take the time to refine your message. With Jupiter spending its last months in your sign for over another decade, this is an important time to nurture influential supporters.
Cancer, Jun 23–Jul 23
Cancerians are likely to be supersensitive to this week’s undercurrents, so if you just want to withdraw and focus on the closest connections, that’s okay. Take time out anyway to let thoughts settle and the cosmic currents guide you where you need to go and what you need to say. Ready, set, slow…
Leo, Jul 24–Aug 23
If people disappoint you, which can happen when Venus retrogrades in a touchy fire sign like Leo, resist feeling neglected or rejected. Instead, take an unblinking look at your past ways of dealing with similar situations, then dive into the compassionate understanding that’s available this week.
Virgo, Aug 24–Sep 23
With Virgo‘s mentor planet, Mercury in its most audacious placement, this week’s communications can be visionary and innovative. So have talks and schedule discussions this week because next week’s retrograde phase is known to ignite fiery, dragonish rants calling for your best flame-proof accessories.
Libra, Sep 24–Oct 23
This week, your prima-planet Venus in go-slow mode could tamp down some of the tempestuous, impulsive energy of her transit through Libra’s opposite sign on the astro wheel. But there could still be moods, sulks and inner child tantrums — some of which might even be yours…
Scorpio, Oct 24–Nov 22
With Venus retrograding in a feisty fire sign, it’s best to avoid a dogmatic approach. The celestial force is with you to let go of old ways of doing things that aren’t getting the results you want and try something different. Oh, and very important this week is to keep your temper in check.
Sagittarius, Nov 23–Dec 21
With conversations that are direct and action-driven, you’ll enjoy this week’s fast-paced exchanges with a diverse pool of people. Just be careful to thoroughly research any expansive plans before giving them the go-ahead because this month supports pressing the pause button before committing to impulsive choices.
Capricorn, Dec 22–Jan 20
Capricorn is regarded as the provider sign. If this week activates that admirable side of you, be aware that any tendency to be too insistent in your approach might attract pushback. On the other hand, a creative exercise of your trademark Capricorn patience could produce some highly satisfying results.
Aquarius, Jan 21–Feb 19
Venus in impatient finds mode finds it hard to keep cool in this week of snap judgments and hasty conclusions. The first solution that occurs isn’t necessarily the best, so double-check your facts. And with people both irritating and oversensitive, it might not be advisable to speak your mind.
