If you’re unattached, you may find yourself seeking more profound connections around 12th April, when philosophical Jupiter creates a conjunction with spiritual Neptune. Superficial conversations aren’t cutting it when these planets meet in the sky. You might be feeling particularly spontaneous starting on 2nd May, when Venus enters Aries. Single or attached, this is a brilliant time to enjoy exercising your seduction skills — enjoy the chase. Try not to overextend yourself beginning 30th October, when Mars stations retrograde in unpredictable Gemini. You might find your thoughts scattered during this transit.

If you’re single, you could attract an admirer from your professional circle or through social media. Be careful to iron out any details before you get in too deep, though, as this transit can be all style and have little substance. In a relationship? This transit could inspire your partner to help support your career goals and discuss the impact on your shared future. Change is being made for the better on 3rd May, when loving Jupiter makes a sextile with routine-ruling Pluto. Consider how you can better support the well-being of both you and your partner during this transit. Take a digital detox, experiment with new recipes, or simply get outside together more often.

Sagittarius
Your flame flickers brightly, Sagittarius. As a mutable fire sign, your attention can be sporadic, thanks to the movement of your love ruler Mercury, who stations retrograde about three times per year. In 2022, Mercury first stations retrograde in independent Aquarius on 14th January before beginning to move direct in realistic Capricorn on 3rd February, a transit that may help you to gain more self-sufficiency. Next, on 10th May, the planet stations retrograde in chatty Gemini, moving direct again on 3rd June in stable Taurus.

Don’t underestimate the power of clear communication in your relationships. Take care to be aware of how you come across to your partner or potential dates starting on 28th June, when your conversation ruler Neptune stations retrograde in sensitive Pisces. Neptune rules illusions and dreams, so his veil is lifted from our eyes when he moves in reverse. If you’re in a relationship, you may notice that your tone, or how you’re being received by your partner or potential dating pool, has changed. Take note to make adjustments before Neptune stations direct in Pisces on 3rd December.
Aquarius
Are you ready to trust the timing of your life, Aquarius? Your planets help keep your emotional life in check as your love-ruling sun moves through each of the 12 houses.

If you’re single, these eclipses may help to reveal potential partners or mark unexpected encounters. Together with their pair, the lunar eclipse, these events will help to indicate anything that’s no longer working in your life. Single or attached, pay close attention to the circumstances surrounding the lunar eclipses in Scorpio on 16th May and in Taurus on 8th November. It could be time for you to express your desires to achieve full transparency. You’re ready to heat things up starting on 20th May, as your romantic Sun sashays into your 5th house of romance, creativity and children. This is an excellent time for single water-bearers to make their mark on the dating scene and impress a gaggle of admirers. If you’re in a relationship, you’ll be happy to get a little more serious with your special someone as of 22nd July, when the sun brightens up your 7th house of relationships. You could cosy up to an old friend beginning on 22nd November, as the sun illuminates your 11th house of friendship, groups, and goals. If you’ve been too shy to make a move with that special someone — now is the time. It’s also a good day for coupled Aquarians to talk about their dream projects with their partners — they’ll provide a great support system to help you get ideas off the ground.
Pisces
How are you currently surfing through your emotions, Pisces? Romantic-ruling Mercury stations retrograde in Aquarius on 14th January before moving direct again in Capricorn on 3rd February.

Ruling Neptune could help you see the reality of your relationship or love life more clearly beginning on 28th June, when the Planet of Dreams and Illusions stations retrograde in intuitive Pisces. Sometimes, you need to see things exactly as they are. But you’ll be ready to dive back into your romantic dreamworld when Neptune stations direct in Pisces on 3rd December.
