While for now, it is business as usual on the relationship front, there are some exciting developments on the romantic front that are not only set to impact this month but for months to come. Until he turns direct in your relationship sector on 31st January, Uranus is not only quietly keeping the focus on your relationships but is more focused on the past. Since his return in 2019, Uranus has spent the second half of each year in retrograde motion, making this part of the annual pattern. You will have a chance to check in on this and become more emotionally engaged and aware when the Moon returns for its first visit to your relationship sector for the year from 8th January to 10th January. Meanwhile, it is two events in the first week of 2025 that are going to set things alight on the romantic front. The first is Venus, the planet of love's early return to your romantic sector on 3rd January. With the Sun not returning until later next month, this is so early that this will have consequences, in that Venus will be forced to slow down and wait, which means a retrograde turn is coming up. That won't happen until after Venus leaves on 4th February, but as she is normally only here for 24 days, it is clear that she is slowing down. This also means that Venus will return in March to spend another five weeks here. With after 12 years Neptune leaving in March, this is the start of the most romantically charged months of 2025. Helping with that is that three days after Venus' return, Mars will retrograde back into an adventurous part of your chart on 6th January, where he will work closely with the planets in your romantic sector until leaving in April. Moving through your romantic sector from 4th January to 6th January, the Moon's first visit to your romantic sector for the year will begin during Venus' first full day and will end just as Mars is about to return to fire up a mix of nostalgia, romance, passion and adventure.
