Time to get exactly what you want. Like, now.
by Korin Miller Published: Sep 28, 2017
Each month, we're spilling what (and who) will be going down in your love life. Read on as Donna Page, a professional astrologer with a graduate degree in counseling psychology, gives it to you straight.
There's some serious planetary movement this month that's going to have a big impact on your sex life. Jupiter, the planet of go big or go home, is going into Scorpio, a sign that's all about depth, passion, and sensuality. Mix these two together, and you've got some seriously hot, intense sex in your future.
But that's not all... Venus, the planet of love and relationships, and Mars, which rules energy and drive, are coming together in Virgo, stirring up some intense sexual vibes in the process. Suddenly you'll find yourself with an urge to get what you want, when you want it. There's nothing wrong with that, of course—it can be super hot.
This month is all about you, your desires, and getting your needs met. Get ready: It's going to be a wild ride. Here's what else is in store for you this month.
ARIES (MARCH 21–APRIL 19)
Relationships are a give and take, Aries, and this month that'll be crystal clear for you now that the full moon is in your sign. How much is your bedmate giving you vs. what you're putting out for them? If you've been the giver way more than you've been the receiver, it's time to speak up. That said, when Jupiter goes into Scorpio, you'll feel yourself connecting deeply with your S.O., in and out of the bedroom. That's also true if you're not in a relationship—you'll have an intense conversation with someone new that leaves you wanting more. This month, you won't be afraid to speak up about your sexual needs. Just be a little cautious when you're sharing things over text—you want to make sure that what you want to keep private stays that way.
TAURUS (APRIL 20–MAY 20)
You've got a lot going on this month, Taurus, but it's important to make time for your sex life in between everything else. After all, you've got needs, if you know what we mean. Venus and Mars will come together in the sector of your chart that represents romance and dating, which really opens things up for you. When Jupiter, the planet of luck, goes into Scorpio, it sparks a trend of people coming into your life. You'll suddenly feel crazy-hot, and it won't go unnoticed. The new moon on the 19th boosts your sexy vibe even more, so don't let it go to waste. If you've been looking for an excuse to splurge on hot new lingerie, you've got it.

GEMINI (MAY 21–JUNE 20)
You'll find a sudden urge to organize your place and make it look amazing this month, and there's a reason for it. If you're single, you're going to be bringing someone new to your place and you'll want to show it off. If you're in a committed relationship, recruit your partner for some of the tidying up. You can make it fun by adding in little incentives you can both cash in later in the bedroom. BTW: Sprucing up your pad will spark a feeling of newness in your sex life. Who doesn't want to get busy on soft new sheets? The full moon on the 5th will leave you with the desire to lighten up and blow off some steam. And hey, there's no better way to do that than slipping between the sheets…

CANCER (JUNE 21–JULY 22)
Routine is cool and all, but sometimes you really need to mix things up. Try out some new sex positions or do it someplace you've never tried before. Breaking away from your ordinary go-tos will be seriously hot for you this month, whether it's with a new partner or your steady. Jupiter, the planet of good luck, moves into fellow water sign Scorpio, expanding your romantic opportunities. If you're single and interested in meeting someone new, now is the time to put yourself out there. In a relationship? You'll go deeper during sex, forming a romantic, intimate connection like you never have before.

LEO (JULY 23–AUGUST 22)
Jupiter is going into Scorpio this month, stirring up all kinds of deep, sexy feelings for you. You'll have some pretty intense sex dreams and may even find yourself fantasizing about an ex at the weirdest times. These little dreams are bringing up something from your subconscious that you need to address. Do you really wish your partner would be more like Christian Gray in bed or was that just a random connection you made in your mind? Have a think on your dreams to figure out what they mean to you. The last 10 days of the month will leave you ready to get rid of things you just don't want anymore, including a lover you've been keeping around just in case or a sex move your S.O. keeps using that you hate. Speak up—that's the only way to really get what you want.
VIRGO (AUGUST 23–SEPTEMBER 22)
Venus, the planet of relationships, and Mars, the planet of energy, are coming together in your sign this month, Virgo—and that's all kinds of awesome for your sex life. You'll feel laser-focused on your desires; you know what you want, and you're going to make it happen. You'll also have a new and improved body image—you look damn good, after all—and people are going to notice. If you're single, someone new will enter your orbit who gets you (and what you need) faster than you'd think. And, whether you're coupled up or not, your new self-confidence will elevate your sex game, leaving you feeling beyond satisfied.

LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 23–OCTOBER 22)
Shhh! The Venus/Mars connection is happening in the part of your chart that represents secrets. Maybe you're having a sexy little romance you haven't told your friends about yet or have been dreaming of a sexual fantasy you haven't shared with your partner. Whatever it is, you'll be ready to come out with it this month. If you're single and wondering if there's a spark between you and someone you've had your eye on, just go for it already. You won't stop thinking about it if you don't. In a relationship? Consider taking a romantic getaway around the 14th, when Venus moves into your sign, making you look and feel amazing.
Jupiter, the planet of good luck and opportunity, is coming into your sign—and all kinds of good things are going to follow. Suddenly, your sex appeal will skyrocket (apparently it can go higher). You'll feel like you're carrying yourself better and won't be afraid to look people in the eye—and that sensuality and self-assuredness will pay off big time in the bedroom. Mars, your ruling planet, moves into Libra on the 22nd, making you feel irresistible. All of these elements will help you connect on a new, deeper level this month, so plan on some slow, sensual sex in your future.

SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 22–DECEMBER 21)
You want to have it all, Sag, and you're going to get it this month. The full moon on the 5th will leave you torn between doing what your friends want and what your lover craves. Luckily, you can do everything—you just might have to get a little creative about it. (Pre-party quickie, anyone?) Your friends will play big into your love life this month. If you're single, you'll meet someone new and interesting when you're hanging out with your girls. If you're in a relationship, plan on having a few dinner parties and double dates with your buddies—there will be plenty of opportunity for some much-needed alone time when you get home. And don't worry, you'll both make the most of it.
CAPRICORN (DECEMBER 22–JANUARY 19)
You've been mulling over a break for a while, and this month you're actually going to do something about it. Your partner will nudge you toward a fall vacation or taking a trip in the future—don't say no. The vacation sex will be next-level amazing. The full moon on the 5th will leave you with the urge to do you, so don't hesitate to whip out your favorite vibe for some serious self-love. Single? You'll meet someone new because of a friend or connection at work. Your next happy hour could turn into something much, much more.

AQUARIUS (JANUARY 20–FEBRUARY 18)
Venus and Mars are in your house of sex, which means one thing: You've got sex on the brain, Aquarius, and that's not a bad thing. You'll be thinking about it, talking about it, and acting on your impulses, making you a very sexually satisfied person in the process. If you're in a relationship, you and your partner may feel compelled to try something new and spicy—go with it. Life is short. And, if you're single, you won't be looking for a bedmate for long. Somebody that you know is very willing and able to satisfy all your needs.
PISCES (FEBRUARY 19–MARCH 20)
Venus and Mars are coming together in your house that represents sexual intimacy so, yeah, you're going to get some. If you're in a relationship, you'll have plenty of opportunities for slow, sensual sex. But if you're not in something serious, you'll find yourself wondering how intimate you want to be with the person warming your bed. Are you comfortable going all in or do you want to keep things light? Don't get too tied up in all this, though: The new moon on the 19th will make you want to break free of restrictions and do things your way—in and out of bed.
