During this cosmically sparse week, we will only experience two aspects. But what they lack in numbers, they more than make up for in power. 

First up: an enlightening lunar eclipse. When the ego-ruling sun in passionate Aries opposes the deep-feeling moon in peacekeeping Libra on Monday, we’ll have an opportunity to look inward and try to better understand our emotional triggers. This helpful lunation can also reveal inconsistencies in our relationships, so pay attention to any imbalances related to responsibility, passion and communication that crop up. 

Then, when charming Venus in intuitive Pisces sextiles innovative Uranus in grounded Taurus on Thursday, we’ll be called to marry our desires for excitement and stability when it comes to romance. If you’re single, this could be a gorgeous time to meet new people who stimulate you but still offer a sense of comfort and security. Meanwhile, those in relationships can enjoy breaking out of their routines to try out new activities with their partners. Follow your instincts as you look for adventure together. 

Love not on your mind? The end of the week will also be a wonderful time for getting in touch with your creative side. Seize this chance to take a few risks and make something truly original. 

Here is your horoscope for the week of Monday, March 25, 2024.

Aries

Have you noticed your loved ones acting a bit prickly lately, Aries? This week, consider reviewing how you communicate with the people you care about most. You may need to work on improving your listening skills or altering your delivery in order to strengthen your closest connections. On the relationship front, singles could encounter unusual romantic interests who introduce them to intriguing new philosophies. Meanwhile, partnered Aries may find they’re eager to take a leap of faith with their partner and embrace new strategies to achieve their shared financial goals. Be ready to mix things up.

Taurus

Have you been looking for a little more direction lately, Taurus? At the start of the week, ask yourself if your current actions are aligned with your spirit’s true needs. If this sparks an epiphany about how you’ve been operating at work or in your day-to-day life, take some time to meditate on how you might be able to offer your inner self more nourishment. Perhaps you’ll find that the answers you seek are right in front of you, but if not, socializing with friends could also provide you with some inspired ideas to experiment with. So don’t hesitate to reach out to your favourite people mid-week — it may even propel you toward a delightful new passion project. 

Gemini

Disagreements between friends can sometimes highlight deeper issues, Gemini. Keep this in mind if differing opinions within your social circle leave you feeling a bit unsettled at the beginning of this week. This could be a sign to give others more time in the spotlight or listen more closely to their input; striking a better balance could allow you to forge a stronger bond. Meanwhile, on the work front, mishaps could lead to exciting breakthroughs — especially if you can draw upon your past experiences to respond to them. Employ your imagination to do what’s never been done before. 

Cancer

Are you ready to make some adjustments to how you operate, Cancer? At the start of the week, you’re encouraged to channel your inner detective and identify any imbalances that exist between your private and professional realms. Remember: if you’re trying to climb a mountain toward career success, you must have all the tools to get there — including time to rest, connect with loved ones and recharge your emotional batteries. Near the end of the week, you could find yourself feeling a bit more spontaneous. Jump on the chance to make travel plans or go on a cultural outing with friends. An adventure might be just what you need to blow off steam. 

Leo

Spread your wings, Leo. At the start of the week, you may feel eager to break out of your usual routine, explore new places and fill your mind with fresh ideas — just try not to get too deflated if your existing commitments get in the way of your grand plans. If you can strike a balance between your responsibilities and your desires, you can still make time to nurture your curiosity. Then, mid-week, your passion for your work could help connect you with people who share your drive. You may find yourself particularly drawn toward eccentric creatives in this moment; strive to make something truly unexpected together. 

Virgo

Have you been looking for ways to simplify your life lately, Virgo? At the beginning of the week, you’ll have an opportunity to use your analytical mind to eliminate what no longer makes sense. You may want to pay particularly close attention to your financial commitments in this moment. If you find that certain agreements are holding you back from achieving your goals, it might be time to disentangle yourself. Then, toward the middle of the week, a philosophical conversation about abundance could help you to unlock a powerful new attitude. Do your best to imagine what’s possible without placing any limits on yourself. 

Libra

Do you need a little more room to breathe, Libra? As one of the most helpful signs of the zodiac, you have a tendency to overextend yourself and may notice that you’re starting to fray at the edges near the start of the week. Be ready to speak up for your needs so you can reclaim some of your time; now is your chance to express where you need assistance and encourage the people around you to stand on their own two feet. Later in the week, an exciting professional opportunity could pop up as you connect with people in your industry. Don’t hesitate to collaborate with people who march to the beat of a different drum. 

Scorpio

Have you been unsatisfied with your work life lately, Scorpio? At the beginning of the week, your subconscious may alert you to how you should be spending your precious time, so be ready to jot down any divine inspiration from your dream world. Meanwhile, you may find practising gratitude and mindfulness helps boost your happiness and satisfaction, making your days feel more meaningful. Toward the end of the week, you could be in the mood to kick back with friends and family. Challenge yourself to try something new with the people you love, like taking a quick trip or making a feast for each other. 

Sagittarius

Could you use a shift in perspective, Sagittarius? If you’ve been spending a lot of time nurturing your creative side as of late, you may need to take a step back to really see the bigger picture. This week, consider chatting with friends and colleagues about your passion projects; they may offer you valuable feedback that keeps you from pigeonholing yourself. Then, on the weekend, you could find yourself in the mood to tackle some domestic projects. Invite your family members to help you crush your to-do list, then — if you feel particularly energized — you may even want to celebrate by hosting an impromptu get-together. 

Capricorn

It’s time to come up for air, Capricorn. Remember: everyone needs a break sometimes — even you when you’re in your flow state. When you emerge, you could even notice that you’ve been neglecting some of your domestic responsibilities and relationships in favour of your work. Seek  to restore more balance between your professional and private worlds by aiming to be present in every moment. Then, later in the week, an unexpected conversation could help you realize your next creative project. Seize this chance to brainstorm with someone who thinks differently than you — the sky’s the limit.

Aquarius

Take action, Aquarius. If you truly want to explore certain ideas, places and philosophies, it’s time to stop talking about it and start actually doing it. At the beginning of this week in particular, you’ll be called to really listen to your inner voice as you consider how you’d like to enrich your worldview. Now is your chance to satisfy your thirst for knowledge and experience. Then, later in the week, you could come up with a quirky idea for how to make your space uniquely yours. Be sure to strike while the iron is hot — discuss your plans with loved ones and figure out a budget that makes sense. 

Pisces

Your ambitions have been growing as of late, Pisces. In fact, you may even notice that you’ve become unsatisfied with certain elements of your life and are anxious to change things up. But in order to truly push through to the next level, you’ll have to do some soul-searching and be willing to face your fears. This week, challenge yourself to leave your comfort zone so you can really chase after your goals. Meanwhile, chatting with strangers will help to inspire and excite you. If you’re single, a chance meeting with someone new could be particularly electrifying and dizzying — enjoy getting swept up in a whirlwind romance.
