Venus

Passion and intensity build within matters of the heart, sweet Libra, as the Aries Moon aspects Saturn and Pluto. Relationships will become serious, and you'll begin to examine what you truly want in a long-term partnership. Recognize if you need to release old wounds or cycles that have spoiled connections in the past. On an individual level, it might be time to rediscover a love for yourself. Creative outlets and reconnecting with neglected personal interests could prove most healing. Acknowledge if you require more discipline to ensure your dreams come true while Luna squares Jupiter, vowing to move forward with renewed determination and better structures.
