You may experience an unexpected event in your relationship. Uranus likes sudden changes, and you may want to make a quick change in love; Saturn likes stability, so it teaches you to be patient in relationships.
It is better to do something right rather than rushing through it. You have been getting accustomed to working with Saturn's energy since it moved into Aries in March. Saturn fosters responsibility in love, and when it's in Aries, it promotes initiative through sacrifice and duty. Despite Uranus's influence on Saturn, learn to take your time in love, especially if it is a relationship you hope will last. Good love doesn't rush; it waits.

Hold space for both endings and beginnings in your life, dear Aries. While Uranus in Taurus is just wrapping up a period of learning lessons involving self-worth, the period of Saturn in Aries is just beginning.
Part of this is a new beginning in understanding what you truly are worthy of when it comes to love, but it also affects how you conduct yourself in a relationship.
Try to hold space for learning today, rather than making any quick decisions. There is no reason to rush in or solidify a relationship when you are still getting to know one another.
Taurus

Healing always arrives right on time, Taurus. Uranus has been in your sign of Taurus since 2018, providing deep changes to who you are and how you perceive love.
This has radically changed your love life, however, with the energy of Saturn in Aries today, there will be a pivotal moment of healing. Aries represents not just your dreams and intuition but also your healing, because of this you may want to make a sudden decision that you feel honored by the person you’ve become.
You may very well be on the right track, but you’ve come this far, there’s no reason to rush a decision this big.
Gemini

Relationships change, beautiful Gemini. There’s no reason to fear change, as to accomplish the romantic goals you have, it is necessary.
As Saturn in Aries aligns with Uranus in Taurus today, try to focus on allowing change to happen naturally.
You will be in tune with what is happening around you and will be able to observe your partner through a new perspective. This doesn’t mean you’re going to break up, but perhaps, it will show you that the love you’ve been looking for has already arrived.
Cancer

Honor your desires for love, Cancer. The love department has been rocky lately for you, prompting you to think you should or will be alone.
This doesn’t honor your true desires for connection, though. While Saturn in Aries aligns with Uranus in Tauru,s you want to be mindful of over-scheduling or planning anything for yourself. Instead of giving love a chance to find you, you may start making summer plans with friends or say yes to a new project at work.
Find a balance between creating the life you love and simply filling space, so you don’t have to be alone.
Leo

When you change how you see yourself, the relationship you attract changes as well, dearest Leo. The energy of Saturn in Aries aligning with Uranus in Taurus prompts you to recognize just how different you are now than you previously were.
This changes your perspective of yourself and the type of people you attract into your life. Let this change come slowly, though; you don’t need to prove you’re different now or go to extravagant extremes to demonstrate it to someone.
Instead, just let your new perspective be enough, and trust those who are meant to notice will.
Virgo

Love doesn’t have to be all or nothing, sweet Virgo. You are prone to often seeing matters in black or white, all or nothing. Yet when it comes to love, there is a whole spectrum to discover, if you give yourself a chance to.
As Saturn in Aries aligns with Uranus in Taurus you may need to remember this. This energy can make you want to make sudden decisions about your relationship and life, that aren’t necessarily what you are meant to do in this moment.
Try to let yourself see the in-between and hold space for letting a situation naturally develop, as you don’t always need to be the one to take action.
Libra

Change isn’t just brewing, Libra, it has arrived. You are wondering how much more you can take after the recent retrogrades of Mercury and Venus in Aries, but you must hold the course.
The universe has been trying, desperately at times, to reveal the truth of your romantic life to you. It's difficult to see at times, it is for your benefit. Today’s energy of Saturn in Aries aligning with Uranus in Taurus may finally be the turning point for you to make a decision.
While you must make sure to see all the facts before you do, this is a time to actually decide whether to stay or to go.
Scorpio

A healthy love begins with you becoming the healthiest version of yourself, Scorpio. Health isn’t just about how you care for your physical body, but part of your mental and emotional wellbeing. This involves your type of attachment, healing of childhood wounds, and how you approach a romantic relationship.
As Saturn in Aries aligns with Uranus in Taurus, you will finally understand the events that have occurred in your romantic life over the last few years as well as what that means for you in this moment.
Rather than demanding a relationship that needs to be healthy, pause a moment and make sure you are approaching it as your healthiest self.
Sagittarius

Take your joy seriously, Sagittarius. It may seem like an oxymoron; however, you must become serious about the joy that you want to create in your life, which includes your romantic relationship.
It’s not enough to just trust in the universe and hope it will all work out. Instead, you need to make a plan, however, be cautious that you’re not being overzealous.
The energy of Saturn in Aries aligning with Uranus in Taurus will bring you a chance to make major changes in your life but just remember that you should take your time.
Capricorn

Invest in what you want to grow, Capricorn. There is a serious development that is occurring within your romantic life. If you haven’t already found that special person you want to have forever with, then you soon will.
While this will be everything you’ve ever dreamed of, you need to make sure you’re not prioritizing the goal rather than the journey. Invest in the connection that you share with your partner, or new love interest, instead of just letting yourself get caught up in the excitement.
This relationship will be one that is long-lasting, however, it’s better to focus on continuing to progress your connection rather than an impromptu elopement.
Aquarius

Trust in the love you’ve built, Aquarius. There is a special relationship in your life that you’ve been hoping would progress in all the right aways. This connection actually is one that is healthy and truly represents a dynamic soul connection.
While you are in the relationship that you are meant to be in, you want to be sure you’re expressing your authentic desires. The energy today could lead you to simply agree or go along with your partner, instead of being honest about what you want.
Trust in this love enough to not just hold you, but your truth as well.
Pisces

You are enough, Pisces. You’ve been through so many lessons that have taught you what it is you deserve that you should be finished with them. However, the universe may have another in store as Saturn in Aries aligns with Uranus in Taurus.
While you may be feeling excited about a new person in your life, be sure that you’re not unconsciously love bombing them. Whether it’s special gifts or simply little tokens that you find on your path, you tend to enjoy giving to the person that you love.
This is a beautiful quality, but be sure that you’re not falling back into old patterns. You deserve to be loved in all the ways you’ve always loved others.
