Online Love Horoscopes for Friday 18 July 2025

	Aries	Mar 21 - Apr 19
Ahead of the Sun’s return to your romantic sector next week, Mercury’s retrograde turn today will not only keep him here but opens the doors to the past. In the same way that Mercury’s return just 10 days after Mars left has managed to keep the romantic flame burning, by staying on instead of leaving, he is doing the same. While only in retrograde motion for a few weeks, this is a short detour down love’s memory lane.

	Taurus	Apr 20 - May 20
As the Moon returns for its first visit to Taurus since Venus left, it is to find Mars still in your romantic sector, but in his final weeks. With the Sun still over a month away from his return to your romantic sector, the Moon returns to give Mars’ romantic passions and fighting spirit an additional boost. Just days after clashing, this puts the Moon and Mars back in harmony.

	Gemini	May 21 - Jun 21
Three weeks after returning for what is normally a 14 to 15 day transit through your communication sector instead of leaving, the planet of communication instead turns retrograde here today. This will keep Mercury here until September, but only in retrograde motion for three and a half weeks this is a short chance to pivot to giving the past and unsaid words a voice.

	Cancer	Jun 22 - Jul 22
A day after Mars moved into his final three weeks in your communication sector Mercury, the planet of communication turns retrograde. While Mercury won’t retrograde all the way back into Cancer, having just left at the end of last month and with Mars having bulldozed his way through so many communication barriers since then, this will make it easier to give the past and unsaid words a voice.

	Leo	Jul 23 - Aug 22
Three weeks after returning for what is normally a 14 to 15 day visit to Leo Mercury, the planet of communication turns retrograde here today. While Mercury will only spend three and a half weeks in retrograde motion, this will keep him here until September. With Pluto already in retrograde motion in your relationship sector, this will make it easier to give your relationships, the past and unsaid words a voice.

	Virgo	Aug 23 - Sep 22
As the Moon returns for its first visit to an adventurous part of your chart since Venus, the planet of love left, there is a chance to capture some of her influence and the time she spent fuelling the spirit of romance and adventure. Since Venus left earlier in the month, last week’s Full Moon in your romantic sector has given the spirit of romance a further boost, making this something that will be easy to recapture.

	Libra	Sep 23 - Oct 23
Two days after spending its early hours in your relationship sector aligned with the two planets that are already in retrograde motion in your relationship sector, the Moon spends its final hours aligned with those still in direct motion but slowing ahead of retrograde turns. This is going to leave you emotionally engaged and aware, with a better understanding of the past but still able to look to the future.

	Scorpio	Oct 24 - Nov 21
While the Moon returns for its ordinary monthly visit to your relationship sector and something that every four weeks is a chance to check in and become more emotionally engaged and aware, this is a valuable chance to regroup. This first visit since Venus and Uranus left is the first in six years where there are no planets here, with a chance for the Moon to speak directly through your emotional and intuitive responses.

	Sagittarius	Nov 22 - Dec 21
Two days after spending its early hours in your romantic sector aligned with the two planets already in retrograde motion here, the Moon is spending its final hours aligned with those still in direct motion but slowing ahead of their own retrograde turns. The Moon will still be here when Mercury turns retrograde in an adventurous part of your chart today, enhancing a sense of romance, adventure and nostalgia.

	Capricorn	Dec 22 - Jan 19
For the first time in six years, as the Moon returns for its first visit to your romantic sector since Venus and Uranus left, it is flying solo. Until Uranus retrogrades back in to tie up loose ends in November and until Venus, the planet of love returns to Capricorn over Christmas, the Moon’s monthly visits will be key to keeping the spirit of romance alive. The timing means that the scene is set for a romantically charged weekend.

	Aquarius	Jan 20 - Feb 18
It is during the Moon’s final hours in your communication sector and with two planets already in retrograde motion here that Mercury, the planet of communication turns retrograde in your relationship sector today. While at least some of the planets in your communication sector will spend the rest of the year in retrograde motion and they are already working to give the past and unsaid words a voice, Mercury will have just three and a half weeks to ensure your relationships benefit from this.

	Pisces	Feb 19 - Mar 20
Just days after clashing as it moved through Pisces, the Moon returns to your communication sector and back into harmony with Mars, a day after he moved into his final three weeks in your relationship sector. Where their clash may have put a balance between your own and your relationship needs to the test, this has not only given Mars something to fight for, but with a chance over the coming days to give anything flushed out a voice.
