Jan 26, 2026 - Feb 1, 2026 - Your romantic forecast this week is about depth and fresh perspectives, Cancer. On Monday, Mercury enters open-minded Aquarius, sparking transformative conversations in your intensely emotional eighth house. If you meet someone who seems instantly familiar, you can’t help but feel like they might be your soul mate.

On Friday, powerful Mars shifts into innovative Aquarius, encouraging you to do the opposite of your first gut reaction. Yes, this feels counterintuitive (because it is), but acting boldly in situations that normally make you shy can have a profoundly positive affect on your love life. Try stepping forward instead of hanging back for the W!

Later in the weekend, a second quarter moon appears and highlights the need to balance independence with emotional security. Certain situations might feel like small tests of whether you’re ready to open your heart wider, so will you pass? It’s finally time to trust your instincts again and let your feelings guide you toward genuine connections.
