So, is love really in the air? Or is it just “cuffing season”? You know, that time during the fall and wintertime, when everyone suddenly decides to get hitched, just because? Temperatures go down, and we’re all in a corner lovesick binge-watching netflix. The whimsical fall vibes are real, and we have no choice but to bask in its magic. Now, if we look to the stars for love this season, you’ll notice that Venus, the planet of love and beauty, is currently swimming through the underworld. Venus is also a symbol of our seduction style, money, relationships, values, beauty, and all things related to pleasure, in general. Anyway, your fall love horoscope is looking good, stargazers.
Now that your ruling planet, Mars, is back on track, in September through early November you might begin to re-familiarize yourself with how it feels to be passionate and excited about life and love again. You might have been shut down, including sexually, over the last couple of months for a variety of reasons. Maybe you were spending time nursing wounds from a breakup and didn’t feel very adventurous about joining the dating game again. Or maybe you have been tired and lethargic about your current relationship, not wanting to put in much effort and basically allowing it to coast. In these crisp Autumn months, snuggling into fuzzy blankets, with a partner or even a close friend will let you feel more connected and open to new opportunities.
This fall is a huge relief for relationships and for your attitude towards intimacy, in general. With Jupiter transiting your partnership zone, you’re in a powerful, beneficial, supportive period for one-on-one relationships. These are the relationships that are defined by a commitment or in which one is implied. Being committed to one another, participating in cute autumn dates will only bring you and your partner closer. From apple picking at your local farm, to watching Halloween movies on repeat, your fall love horoscope shows comfort within your relationship.
Some Geminis during this past summer or early autumn might have weathered a tough breakup, while those in rock-solid relationships could have decided to make things official. Many of you will delude themselves of falling in love with someone to avoid getting their feeling hurt. However, keep your heart open as you never know what (or who) could be coming your way. A new love interest with more depth than you usually experience could surface, and you might be so charmed that you’re the one demanding clarity. Get to know new people and see what could happen! Chatting outside, grabbing a hot cup of coffee, or taking walks to look at the autumn leaves are all great ways to get to know someone on a deeper level.
Sensual, passionate, and super in tune with their bodies, Cancers are highly attuned to love and physical sensation—as long as they can trust enough to let down their barriers and allow another person into their world. Cancer much prefers discovering and checking out potential partners in low-stress settings, such as in a class, as neighbors, or at a local coffee shop. In bed, Cancer is happiest with long, passionate lovemaking. While props, toys, and shower sex can all be fun, Cancer’s absolute favorite is any position that allows plenty of eye contact with his or her lover. Crabs want to cuddle after sex (if they feel trusted and in love), and they’re always up for a lazy day spent entirely under the covers.
Passionate, intense, and fiery, Leo loves hard. For Leos, love itself—whether falling in love, thinking about love, making love—is one of their favorite things in the world. This sign loves the roller coaster that is romance, from butterflies before the first date to catching their breath after the first time in bed. Starting this month and then in the early autumn periods, you will be able to meet good people, make new friends and lonely hearts will probably meet the person of their life. If your already in a relationship, things are starting to feel very comfortable. This fall, try to step out of your relationships comfort zone! Your fall love horoscope suggests a fun new kind of date to shake things up. A few ideas could be taking a road trip to look at foliage, or going to a seasonal festival to get your pumpkin beer fix and a ride on Ferris wheel.
The sextile between your power planet and Venus on September 3 boosts your charm factor, makes you flirtier than usual, and makes it easy for you to get what you want. However, curb a tendency to be too argumentative with lovers as New relationships may feel more frustrating than they’re worth. Early 2018 autumn sees your own life calm down, just as interesting (or difficult) situations arrive for your loved ones. Your Fall love horoscope forecasts that you should plan a romantic vacation for two, or create a plan to reach out to your secret crush.
You can learn a lot about love this month, Libra. Saturn tries to teach you to work hard for what you want when it slips out of its reflective retrograde cycle on September 6, but paying attention to details will be key. Slow down and be attentive. Any emotional baggage you’re carrying from previous experiences will turn off potential partners. You’ll slowly let go of those experiences by allowing new and creative people to heat up your love life. Allow your well-meaning friends to set you up on blind dates and don’t be afraid of approaching that cute stranger. You’ll need new and refreshing energies to enter your life on an ongoing basis, so start giving people more chances!
This retrograde is important, Scorpio, since it will be in your sign! Pay attention to what themes come up for you over this next month, because during Venus’s retrograde, you’ll be reassessing what’s truly important to you. While being in a relationship, it’s good for a Scorpio to go along with the seasons when it comes to their partners and activities with them. The more time you spend with you significant other or crush, the deeper the connection will feel. This fall, try going to a pumpkin patch to channel why you and your partner are so great for each other. If your single, see if your crush would wanna accompany you on this fall date, it’s cuffing season Scorpio! Be confident and don’t let your crush get away!
This is a good year for growth in your relationships, so don’t make any impulsive decisions. Instead, take the time to get in touch with your emotions this year. Try letting your partner take the lead and accept that you can’t control every aspect of your relationship. Use your optimism to work on a go-with-the-flow mentality. This fall, try to become an equal with your partner, there doesn’t always have to be a ‘top dog’ in this Sagittarius relationship. Your fall love horoscope suggests that you and your partner bake autumn treats together. Playfully making a pie or crisp will bring you closer than you think as you are both helping each other to get a delicious outcome.
If you’re single, although you may have some long-term relationship goals, don’t put all your eggs in one basket. It will be best to pursue that once the Mercury retrograde is over in April. In September and October, you may find yourself in a new relationship challenge if you’re flying solo, and someone you weren’t expecting to make an effort may do so. With Mars now in retrograde, don’t let love get the best of you. This is a chaotic time, and Mercury retrograde is also flaring its head again. Keep your wits about you. A cute date you could have this season will be low key. Might as well hope on the pumpkin spice latte date train!
You may be feeling just a touch sulky in your fall love horoscope. If your dearest one asks you ever so gently (they wouldn’t dare do otherwise) what is the matter, you assume a wonderful pouting expression. You could keep this up forever, but that is an awful long time. To be blunt, it may be preferable to grow up and act your age. Your partner will certainly appreciate it. To get over these communication obstacles this fall, your zodiac sign suggests to get out of the house with your partner to practice team work. A corn maze would the perfect date to achieve these goals.
This autumn season, you could be wrongly accusing your partner. Perhaps they are not appreciating you as much as you require. Or maybe they forgot to bring your early morning cup of coffee, with low fat milk, up to bed. Whatever the reason, give them a break. You need to see just how you too have played a part in any dissatisfaction. This season, your fall love horoscope suggests you and your bae take a break from the petty arguments and have fun dressing up for Halloween together. A couple costume is guaranteed to lighten the mood.
