This could also be a time, Aquarius where you take much more decisive action in your relationship, one way or the other. Maybe you take a step towards moving in together or something more exciting! 

Pisces

Pisces, with Mars in Leo, you may find yourself busier than ever, especially when it comes to work. You might be put into a position of management, which can bring you a huge amount of confidence. 

This confidence may easily spill out into your love life, whether you are single or with someone. Sometimes, all we need is acknowledgement and rewards for a job well done to allow our light to beam bright! 

Domestic, day to day topics are also going to be very important, Pisces, in your relationship. You may find yourself either becoming a little more tense as you run around doing it all, or you could find a new, fun way to do tasks. 

Try and make it the latter, Pisces – for example, have a reward system where, if one of you take out the trash, you get a sexy treat! This makes things fun and exciting rather than dull and conflict-ridden. 

Single Pisces, you may find this a great time to connect with someone at work on a physical level – you know what I mean! As long as it doesn’t threaten your career, you can really have some naughty fun now!
