Taurus, determine what you want in love and don't settle for anything less.
Whether you are single or in a relationship, Mars retrograde in Cancer is here to boost your courage and confidence and remind you that what feels “home” to you may not always feel so to someone else.

Gemini

Best day for love for Gemini this week: January 26
Gemini, try to be more introspective and calm this week. Be more of a listener than a speaker (which for you, may be easier said than done!). While Mars is retrograde in Cancer, creating a bubble of peace and a safe space for each other is important.
Spend time around people who ease your mind and your nerves to pave the way for a beautiful relationship in the future.

Leo, prioritize fun in love over the more serious discussions. The latter has its time and place, but not right now from an astrological perspective.

Libra

Best day for love for Libra this week: January 26
Libra, Venus in Pisces is bringing some serious romance to your door, but it may arrive in a manner that startles you or even eggs you out of your comfort zone.
If you are single, don't immediately turn away from someone for surface-level reasons.
If you are in a relationship, spend some time away from the everyday hustle and bustle to deepen your connection.
Scorpio

Best day for love for Scorpio this week: January 26
Scorpio, try your best to address hurt feelings, hidden wounds, and passiveness in love.
If you brush things under the rug, they will only fester. But if you take the initiative to create a safe space and be patient, you and your partner or love interest will find your way to each other while dealing with the regular problems that people face in love.
Mars retrograde in Cancer encourages a slower approach to love and romance this week. Focus on heart-centered actions.
Sagittarius

Best day for love for Capricorn this week: January 23
Capricorn, love does not always make sense, but healthy love will always light up your soul and feed it with the richness of a beautiful present and future.
Step out of your comfort zone and involve yourself as much as possible in your partner's life.
If you are single, being genuinely interested to find out more about the fascinating person you are on a date with will do wonders too.
Aquarius

Best day for love for Aquarius this week: January 21
Aquarius, find something within your partner (or date) to admire and learn from it. If this is a difficult task for you, ask yourself why and journal the answer.
Jupiter retrograde in Gemini will positively influence your romance if you're willing to glean the wisdom right before your eyes and embrace it to expand yourself and your horizons.
True love can be both healing and expansive.
Pisces

Best day for love for Pisces this week: January 22
Pisces, don't feel ashamed of your heart's desires. With Venus in Pisces in your corner, you have a slice of the world to decorate as you please, both literally and metaphorically.
True love will only enhance that experience and bring you new ideas and inspiration on the journey. False love will do the opposite and create illusions.
Those in a relationship will benefit from learning about each other's deepest wishes so you can understand what truly drives each other.
