Your Sex Horoscope for the Weekend

Your sexoscope for the week of July 12 to July 18:

Aries

If you’re single:

It looks like madness at home and work are taking over your life this weekend—yikes. Luckily, the Moon in wild Sagittarius is perfect for saying “f*ck it,” forgetting your woes, and going out! It’s Mercury Retrograde, so the worst (or best?) that could happen is you run into your ex—maybe you can make some magic happen with them!

If you haven’t DTR:

This Mercury Retrograde is particularly chaotic, and you might feel as if your situationship is on thin ice. Take a deep breath—the Moon in Sagittarius this weekend makes you feel independent and carefree, so you don’t GAF about any drama in your love life. Take this weekend to just do you—you deserve it.

If you’ve been together forever:

Life at home is a little crazy right now—doubly so if you live with your boo. Instead of staying locked up in your room and letting the stress and anxiety eat you alive, you need to go out this weekend and live a little. De-stress, let off some steam—whatever it takes to keep you from raging hard at your partner back at home.

Taurus

If you’re single:

The fiery Sagittarius Moon in your chart’s intimacy zone this weekend puts you in the mood this weekend, and you’re more willing to shoot your shot when you spy a cutie at the club. Do your thing, and enjoy a fling or two this weekend. Just a heads up: a seriously bitter ex might pop up in your DMs or worse—in person when you’re getting your flirt on.

If you haven’t DTR:

The Sagittarius Moon this weekend lights a fire in your heart—and in your pants—so you’re in the mood for a lil romance while you’re boning your FWB. They might be into it, they might not—it’s Mercury Retrograde, so there’s no telling—so just try to roll with it and don’t set your expectations too high.

If you’ve been together forever:

Friday and Saturday finds you like, totally in love with your boo, and you’re eating them up, but by Sunday you feel like you need space and alone time. Your mood and libido are fluctuating all week long, and your partner can barely keep up—they might get a little snippy on Wednesday, JSYK—but by Thursday everything calms TF down.

Gemini

If you’re single:

You know the lyrics “Empty my bank account—I might”? That’s you this weekend if you aren’t careful! Instead of buying drinks for that cutie across the bar, why not stick to your bread and butter and flirt it up with them instead? That way you can save money and still take someone sexy home with you.

If you haven’t DTR:

Being with your boo makes your weekend start off on a fun note, but as the week begins you lose interest and can’t help but wonder… Sure, they got what you want, but do they got what you need? Turning your situationship into something more used to sound nice, but now… you’ll have to think on this one, at least until the retrograde ends.

If you’ve been together forever:

Every Mercury Retrograde, you find yourself more discombobulated than any other sign, and this one is no exception. You’re shuffling your dozens of personalities around and your S.O. can barely keep up! You’re overwhelmed with stress from work, but don’t take it out on your boo—be honest, say you need space, and by Thursday, when Venus and dreamy Neptune connect, you’ll be A-OK again and in the mood for romance.

Cancer

If you’re single:

Getting it up and even leaving the house is a challenge this weekend, but on Sunday, the Moon enters Capricorn in your chart’s relationships zone, so you’re totally in the mood. Maybe you want to hit up your crush and ask them on a date? I wouldn’t advise that, because this week’s lunar eclipse is a huge red flag for loss and rejection in your love life. Stay in, little crab–it’s for your own good.

If you haven’t DTR:

There’s good news and bad news—I’ll start with the bad. The lunar eclipse is a loud, blaring alarm signaling that there’s some type of drama in your relationships, so your FWB might be a goner. The good news is, for every door that closes, another opens, so if you situationship comes to an end, maybe it’s because it turns into a serious relationship—don’t count on it, though.

If you’ve been together forever:

You’ve been locked up in your shell for awhile now, holding back, but the more you keep in that thing or issue that’s been bugging you, the worse it’ll feel when this week’s lunar eclipse pries you open to shine a light on it. If you’ve been holding back or keeping secrets, fasten your seat belt, Cancer—this eclipse isn’t a gentle one.

Leo

If you’re single:

Your hot girl summer (aka Leo season) is still a week-ish away, but you can pre-game early with this weekend’s Sagittarius Moon! It’s in your chart’s love/sex zone, so you’re radiating sexiness and picking up someone hot to play with is easier than ever. Enjoy it while you can, because some bad news re: work comes up on Monday and might make your entire week go south.

If you haven’t DTR:

You’re feeling yourself all night this Friday, and your top priority is getting your rocks off with your FWB! Enjoy the weekend, little lion, because once the Capricorn Moon arrives at the start of the week, work-related stress fills your plate all week long, especially with Tuesday’s lunar eclipse, which warns of big and not-so-fun surprises at the office.

If you’ve been together forever:

Mercury Retrograde is still hanging around your sign, and Cancer season’s watery vibes are raining on your parade, big time. Take this weekend’s Sagittarius Moon to bang your boo to your heart’s content. Your week doesn’t look great, TBH, but Venus and dreamy Neptune’s romantic connection on Thursday mean that when you come home at the end of the week, your lover will be there waiting with open arms, an open heart, and open legs.

Virgo

If you’re single:

How’s the headache, Virgo? Mercury Retrograde is kicking your ass, and this weekend, you really want one thing: to get some goddamn peace and quiet. The Moon enters Capricorn on Sunday night, however, putting a pep in your step and revving up your libido, so you’re frantically sending out “wyd” texts all night to get some last-minute action before work, but don’t get your hopes up—you might just need to get your rocks off solo this weekend.

If you haven’t DTR:

If your FWB is testing your limits, asking you for too much, or just being disrespectful towards you this week, Pluto’s struggle with the Sun indicates that you need to stand your ground and enforce your boundaries. Maybe they’re trying to take things too fast or trying something in bed you’re not cool with—regardless, you shouldn’t be afraid to give ‘em the chop if they can’t understand no means no.

If you’ve been together forever:

It may feel as if your partner has been pushing you around lately, taking way more than they’re giving, and just being uncool in general towards you. If they step on your toes again this week, speak up about it! You deserve the best, and if they can’t treat you like the boss bitch you are, maybe they should spend the night somewhere else.

Libra

If you’re single:

Life’s been a freakin’ roller coaster all month long, so you want nothing more than to head out and find some action this weekend. The outgoing Sagittarius Moon makes it easy for you to approach the hottest person at the club and get your flirt on, or slide into your crush’s DMs to shoot your shot!

If you haven’t DTR:

Home life is stressing you TF out, so leaving to see your regular hookup sounds spectacular this weekend. Don’t bank on staying the night, though—Mercury Retrograde makes open communication difficult, so even though you think they’re totally into you, they might be subtly trying to get you to head back home when you finish up. You’re not getting rejected, though! The flirty Aquarius Moon on Wednesday finds them hitting you up for more fun!

If you’ve been together forever:

Mercury Retrograde can lead to miscommunications, but the Sagittarius Moon this weekend makes it easier for you to open up to your boo about what you want for your future together. Venus in Cancer is the perfect astrology for talking about upgrading your relationship, but don’t be surprised when you and your partner aren’t exactly on the same page. That’s okay, though—Venus and romantic Neptune connect at the end of the week, helping you to work through any disagreements without stressing too hard.

Scorpio

If you’re single:

Messaging your latest Tinder match this weekend leads to those dreaded words: “Read at:” with no response attached. You’re feeling pretty crushed over it, because rejection is one of your biggest fears, but you gotta pick yourself back up. Sure, your advances were denied, but the lovely aspect shared by Venus and Neptune at the end of the week feels like a fog has been lifted when a total dreamboat bumps into you.

If you haven’t DTR:

You want one thing out of this situationship, but your almost-boo wants something entirely different. Arguments outside the bedroom may translate to performance issues and awkwardness when you’re sleeping together, and you can’t decide if it’s worth all the drama. Mercury Retrograde isn’t the best time to determine the relationship, but this week you’d benefit from starting a conversation to clear the air.

If you’ve been together forever:

What starts off as a perfectly fine weekend with your partner can quickly deteriorate into an argument over something petty—but it’s Mercury Retrograde, so WTF did you expect, sunshine and rainbows? You’re as stubborn as they come and immediately shut yourself off when stressed out, but try to see their side, okay? It’s probably a simple miscommunication—thanks Mercury—and by Thursday the two of you are back on top.

Sagittarius

If you’re single:

The Moon in your sign this Friday makes for a pleasant weekend, despite Cancer season’s moody energy. You’ve had a tough week, so try to take advantage of the carefree vibes this weekend and head out, grab a few drinks, and maybe mack on a few cuties while you’re at it! Venus’ tough opposition to Saturn this week means that catching feels is a big no-no, though, so try to keep your emotions out of any flings if you want to avoid future heartache.

If you haven’t DTR:

The Moon in your sign this weekend means that it’s a good time to have a good time with your FWB! Ride ‘em til you can’t no more, Sagittarius—you need to let loose and have as much fun as possible before Sunday night’s serious Capricorn Moon puts a damper on your mood. Also, if you’re thinking about defining the relationship soon, don’t—this week’s tough astrology all but guarantees to shit on your love life if you try to.

If you’ve been together forever:

Although your weekend is easy enough, your partner might seem distant this week. You might think maybe you did something wrong, but don’t worry—it’s just Mercury Retrograde playing tricks, and by Thursday when lovely Venus and Neptune join forces, romance and intimacy are back on the menu for you.

Capricorn

If you’re single:

There’s a lunar eclipse in your sign this week, which spells out major drams for your love life. You may be single and ready to mingle, but hooking up is the last thing on your mind when news about an old partner comes around (or maybe your ex appears in person! Eek!) that really turns your world on its head. Don’t let it bug you too much—the past is in the past, and this week is helping you to find closure.

If you haven’t DTR:

You’re not the most emotional or romantic of the signs, especially when it comes to a situationship like this one, but this week’s eclipse promises to tug on your heartstrings big time. Your almost-boo comes to you about something major—maybe they want a serious relationship, maybe they’re confronting you for dating other people, or maybe they want to end things. Whatever it is, it promises to make a big change to your relationship status.

If you’ve been together forever:

Are you hiding something from you partner? Be honest. Maybe you feel like your relationship has lost its spark, or things are getting stale in bed, or there’s just something bugging you that you don’t want to bring up—either way, the truth comes out this week with the Lunar Eclipse on Tuesday in your sign. Don’t freak out—Venus and Neptune have a super-romantic connection on Thursday, meaning that any fighting or heartache can quickly get patched up.

Aquarius

If you’re single:

Shoot your shot this weekend, Aquarius—the Sagittarius Moon helps you hit your target and pick up whatever hottie you set your sights on with ease, and you can potentially start your weekend off with a real bang! Don’t expect much more than a little fooling around to come from it, though—all of the energy in the sign Capricorn for the rest of the week makes it all but impossible to connect deeply with someone new, and you’d rather spend time alone.

If you haven’t DTR:

Your love life is heating up now thanks to Mars in Leo, but whether that means you’re feeling more hot-and-bothered or just fuming with aggravation towards your FWB is yet TBD. If you’re totally over it, the lunar eclipse on Tuesday can help you decide to let them go, but if you feel like things are going better than ever, there’s a tender connection with Venus and Neptune on Thursday that helps you add a little romance to your situationship.

If you’ve been together forever:

Things don’t look too shabby in your love life this week! Mars in Leo makes any action between you and your boo way hotter, so any time spent in the bedroom is way more fun than usual. Your sign has a reputation for being emotionally detached, but damn, Aquarius, you’re feeling pretty lovey-dovey this week, especially with the dreamy link between Venus and Neptune on Thursday!

Pisces

If you’re single:

This weekend is looking pretty fun for you, Pisces! The Sagittarius Moon helps your bubbly personality shine through even more than usual, so picking up hotties isn’t hard, and Venus in fellow water sign Cancer makes you luckier than ever when it comes to your love/sex life. One thing to look out for—someone in your squad is crushing hard on you, but you’re just not interested—rejecting someone sucks, but sometimes you just gotta let 'em down easy.

If you haven’t DTR:

Life’s feeling pretty good this weekend, but when drama with your FWB pops up, you wish you could just swim away from your situationship and never look back. Maybe they want to take things to the next level and you aren’t ready, or vice versa—either way, this week puts your conflict resolution skills to the test and see if you can keep your fling afloat.

If you’ve been together forever:

Cancer season tends to be wonderful for all things related to your love/sex life, but you’re in rough waters this week. The future of your relationship gets brought up, and it turns out you and your boo have a few different priorities. They might be ready to move in but you’re just not on that level, but regardless, there may be some trouble in paradise for you this week. It’s not the end of the world—all relationships have their ups and downs, this week just happens to be one of the downs.
