Astrologer Colin Bedell says:
Choose one habit that helps you punctuate your life again. Life does not have to feel like a run-on sentence. It can feel like a story you are proud to write; one pause, one breath, one routine at a time.

Make your life easier by making your habits gentler.

Intimacy, Empathy, Sexuality & Transformation
Intimacy deepens through shared honesty, Aquarius. The New Moon in Virgo invites you to explore the emotional and erotic truths that live beneath your surface. You’re learning how to stay present with your own vulnerability and someone else’s; not to fix, but to witness. When you bring care and attention to the parts of yourself you usually keep hidden, transformation begins. Empathy becomes a bridge, and desire becomes a guide.

Pisces
Romance, Boundaries, Partnerships & Trust
Opposites attract, then interact. The New Moon in Virgo invites you to name the tensions that keep love alive. Relationship Dialectics Theory teaches that strong bonds stretch across autonomy and closeness, privacy and openness, predictability and evolution. When you voice your inner pull between these needs, intimacy expands. Boundaries become a way of loving clearly. Desire grows when there’s room to name what feels true. Trust deepens when both people stay in the conversation.
Action:
Speak to one relational tension you’re holding and ask your partner or person to share their side, too.
