As Venus and Mars square off, how will that affect your week and emotions? Tatler’s astrologer De Rui gives us a look ahead

The Leo Full Moon on Sunday night is an occasion to reflect on what makes your heart sing. The inner child in all of us wants to be creative and express ourselves freely, without worrying about what others might think or feel. This is a time for finding the inner child, letting loose, and maybe even breaking a few rules in the process.

Lowkey conflict and confrontation may be a theme as Venus and Mars square off. Drawing on higher wisdom and a soft touch is more likely to smooth things over. Thinking creatively and outside of worn-out playbooks also supports harmonious relationships, with Uranus in prime position.

Words and messages of all kinds are more powerful and moving under the influence of Neptune and Pluto. Song lyrics, poems and the like can be especially sentimental and strike chords in our psyche. Toward the end of the week, deep insights can come through texts, emails, or phone calls, putting people or situations in a new light.
