The Planets this Week: January 29 – February 4, 2017

Aired Monday, 30 January 2017, 9:00 PM ET

Find out how the planets will be affecting you this week with your host and astrologer Kelli Fox. The astro headline of the week is Venus moving into Aries on Friday where it will be until April 2nd. It turns retrograde on March 4th and then finally direct April 15th.

While Venus is in Aries, and depending on how this influence affects your birth chart, your love life could be quite exciting! You might find yourself being bolder than usual, taking risks and acting on your ardent impulses. Romance can be steamy and you’re open to experimentation — just watch out for getting carried away by your passions and be sure to take care of yourself.

If you’re single, this is an ideal transit for initiating new relationships, and you’ve got the confidence to go after what you want. Of course, what you want could change from moment to moment. The hunt might be what thrills you most right now, while the everyday work of relationship could feel stifling. If you’re in a partnership, break up familiar routines with an infusion of novelty — surprise your sweetie by taking him or her on an unexpected outing, wearing a sexy new outfit, or trying an innovative approach to lovemaking.

You might find yourself wanting to assert your independence now, and getting in touch with your own needs and desires, separate from your partner. Clinginess is a definite turn-off. Giving yourself space to explore your passions is a way to recharge the vitality in your relationship.

Be aware of the tendency toward impulse spending under this transit — you want what you want when you want it! A little patience and prudence could be in order.

Tune in on Monday at 9pm ET/6pm PT to find out more…
