On May 18, Venus, the planet of love and pleasure, enters Cancer, the sign of emotions and intimacy, signaling a period of heightened feelings in your love life. This transit encourages vulnerability, honest expression, and the building of unbreakable bonds. Open, heartfelt dialogue is key to strengthening relationships. Avoid games; instead, show up, be present, and let your heart lead. Even if things go wrong, you'll have clarity and truth. Here's what each star sign needs to know, using the Zodiac Love Match oracle deck.
Aries (March 21 – April 20)
Tarot Cards: Libra, Set A Deadline, Abundance
You deserve a full, active, and supportive love life. If that's not what you're receiving, it's time to leave the table. You've been dealing with hot-and-cold treatment, which creates insecurity. Set a deadline for yourself. Objectively assess the treatment you've received—not just words—and ask if you would do the same. You need abundance: a partner who matches your energy and passion. Half-hearted situations are not for you. Reconsider.
Taurus (April 21 – May 21)
Tarot Cards: Cancer, Trust Your Heart, Temptation
Commitment is crucial for you, providing certainty and stability. Yet, deep down, you may yearn for something else, and temptation can distract you. Look this feeling in the eye. What tempts you? Can it be incorporated into your current bond? Listen to your heart. Is this a passing whim or a genuine heartfelt attraction? Now is the time to answer.
Gemini (May 22 – June 21)
Tarot Cards: Leo, Manifest Your Life, Power Couple
You're focused on building a power couple dynamic. Take control and articulate your vision of love—beyond passion and romance. You want an ally, a ride-or-die, someone to build an empire with. The partner you choose is your most important decision. Share your hopes, dreams, and ambitions. Does everything align? Can you build a dream life together? If so, start building.
Cancer (June 22 – July 23)
Tarot Cards: The Ex, Don't Drink The Poison, Solitude
A clear message: don't look back. If you do, view the past objectively, without rose-tinted glasses. Celebrate how far you've come and the wisdom gained. If single, enjoy freedom. Love is always possible. If attached and wondering "is this it?" find truth in your own mind, not their version. Trust your gut. This season is for truth and clarity.
Leo (July 24 – August 23)
Tarot Cards: Pisces, Take The Crown, Universal Love
Power dynamics often feature in your relationships, but a softer side emerges now. You don't always need to be in charge; you both serve the relationship equally. This leads to universal, all-encompassing love and support. Step back and let it be.
Virgo (August 24 – September 23)
Tarot Cards: Gemini, Open The Book, Happy Ever After
Your route to happy ever after is through communication. Talk about everything—ask weird questions, share feelings, suggest new things, give compliments. Push past assumptions and open the book to write new stories. Your romantic happy ever after will come from one of these conversations.
Libra (September 24 – October 23)
Tarot Cards: The Soul Mate, Serve The Relationship, Spiritual Connection
You need a soulmate who matches your powers and challenges you. Serve the relationship first. If that's not how things feel, talk. If single, create a vision board for a soulmate. A spiritual connection comes from understanding the whole person. Talk deeply and align on how you serve the relationship.
Scorpio (October 24 – November 22)
Tarot Cards: The Free Spirit, Take The Crown, Smooth Sailing
Discuss space and independence. Establish realistic expectations around each other's need for freedom and presence. Take ownership of this conversation. Balance intimacy and independence. If you can, your relationship will be smooth sailing. Control and possessiveness are your curses; tame them for an issue-free love life.
Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21)
Tarot Cards: The Best Friend, Spill The Tea, Smooth Sailing
You may have developed deeper feelings for a friend, or someone has for you. Spill the beans this season. Things will go better than you fear, leading to smooth sailing—either toward romance or back to easy friendship. Alternatively, if your relationship feels too friendly, talk about reigniting the spark.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 21)
Tarot Cards: Aquarius, Heal Heartbreak, Uncharted Territory
Something bubbles up inside that threatens to overwhelm you—an old emotion or heartbreak. Speak your truth with pure intent. If it's about your current relationship, process your feelings first. If it's from the past, unload your emotions. Healing takes you into uncharted territory, but you don't have to carry this weight any longer. Heal and move on.
Aquarius (January 22 – February 19)
Tarot Cards: Taurus, Say Goodbye, Fading Feelings
You feel deeply but can control emotions. Talk about fading feelings or lost spark. It doesn't mean the end; it can be a new beginning. Something has to give—a false front needs to collapse. Replace outdated patterns. Reignite what was lost.
Pisces (February 20 – March 20)
Tarot Cards: Sagittarius, Give In To Desire, Stormy Weather
Venus in Cancer stirs up passions, possibly creating stormy weather. Give in to your desires and follow your heart. Act with your heart on your sleeve. Let a little storm clear the air. The right people will align with you.
