For today’s love horoscope by zodiac sign, astrologer and YourTango Senior Editor, Aria Gmitter shares how current astrological events affect you on Sunday, January 17.
Childhood and even adult wounds can confuse about what real love looks or feels like.
While Chiron, The Wounded Healer will remain in Aries for years to come, we have time to work on our perception of ourselves. Some days that perception is a mirror and we think it’s love.
Mars is in Taurus, and when it’s in Taurus, it brings our passionate emotions to things that make us feel comfortable.
But if you grew up in a difficult family environment or entered into a few relationships that hurt you inside, passion can get twisted.
This can be one of the confusing things about Mars, the masculine form of passion is shown in conjunction with mad Uranus in Taurus.
On Sundays it can remain cloudy while the moon in Pisces speaks to Mars, which may confuse some.
The moon is also in conjunction with Neptune in Pisces, so this can create a feeling that what is angry is love when in fact it is not.
It’s a great time to check your emotions, especially if you feel like love was missing or when things were exciting and you just want to make everything go away by pleasing people.
Sunday is a good day to look in your own astrology where Chiron, Mars is located to see how you feel this most on a personal level, after reading your love horoscope for Sunday.
Scroll down to find today’s love horoscopes for each of the zodiac signs on Sunday, January 17, 2021.
Today’s love horoscope for Aries (March 21 – April 19)
Prepare mentally. Mars is challenged by dreams and illusions while the Moon and Neptune are in Pisces.
Your ruling planet Mars is all about Taurus, your solar home of money and personal property, and while this passionate planet can bring you good things, there is a battle for the will.
It may feel like what you are looking for is hard to find, and the me versus the world mentality could creep in.
Today’s love horoscope for Taurus (April 20 – May 20)
For this month you have Mars, the planet of masculine energy in your sign, so there is a lot of inner work that you think needs to be done, but externally there is just too much going on.
It can feel like you just want to escape with friends and have fun, and even forget about your responsibilities for a while.
But this may not be the right way to go. Mars is currently at odds with Neptune and the Moon in your friends house, so even there, tension can play a role.
Today’s love horoscope for Gemini (May 21 – June 20)
There is always that one person who seems to be causing trouble, has an unkind word or just isn’t happy unless other people’s misery is involved.
With Mars in Taurus, your solar home lights up from enemies and you may feel more aware of the toxic people who are preoccupied with your life.
It will be hard for you not to acknowledge their desire to stir the pot as the excitement of the day gets a dose of your imagination too.
Mars speaks unfavorably with both the moon and Neptune in Pisces, making it hard to ignore what’s going on.
Today’s love horoscope for Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
Friendships can get sticky, and when you have people you let into your life for emotional reasons, but later prefer they weren’t, it’s hard to set clear boundaries again. You were the one who broke them.
And while the planet of anger, Mars, is in Taurus, there are some things you may recognize from your interactions with others that are unpleasant and mild.
Mars asks you to make choices, and hurt feelings may be involved. So, are you exploring romantic emotions about individuals or why do you think you need them if you don’t?
While honesty isn’t always easy, this weekend you may want to let your heart and mind know that they need to get along.
Today’s love horoscope for Leo (July 23 – August 22)
You’re trying to do the right thing, and while Mars is easy to argue with, daily tasks feel twice as difficult to do and you may not know why.
But Mars in Taurus will fight with Neptune in Pisces, your home with shared resources. And human nature can piss people off a little when money is involved.
So try your best and stay sober. Some things aren’t worth fighting about.
Today’s love horoscope for Virgo (August 23 – September 22)
Neptune and the moon spend the day in your home of obligations, and this is a dreamy place for love, but there may be a few bumps in the road right now to navigate.
Mars in Taurus continues to expand your knowledge and consciousness.
You learn from experience, and even hard school can help you when it comes to love.
Today’s love horoscope for Libra (September 23 – October 22)
As things light up in the love department, everyday responsibilities can tire you out, and this can have an effect on your love life.
However, there is hope. A friend or someone you care about can be a lifeline, even during social distance.
Don’t just try to work and don’t play. Set aside some time to socialize, even if it’s through zoom, chat, or online.
Today’s love horoscope for Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)
Love and passion go well together right now, and there could be a few reasons why.
With Mars in Taurus, your solar home of relationships, you may feel like you know what you want and why. And there is a bonus for you in the mix.
Mars works closely with Neptune in Pisces, your solar home of romance and play.
While this could break others, it can help clarify what you love and how you intend to keep the fire going.
Today’s love horoscope for Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)
With Jupiter in Aquarius with Saturn, you talk a little less than usual and you think more about what you say and to whom.
This can be a life-changing experience for you as you start to merge your ideas and thoughts from wisdom and maturity.
While Mars in Taurus works out the daily details to help you learn not to get the better of anger,
Neptune in Pisces may show you that this has helped you not only in love, but also with family members.
Mars in Taurus will fight with Neptune in Pisces
Today’s love horoscope for Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)
Mars spends the day in Taurus, your solar home of romance, and this can spark a desire to nurture or give generously to the people you love.
However, being too generous may not be smart at this point.
Avoid big-ticket items with contracts and terms and conditions that you don’t read carefully, especially if Neptune is on Mars that day.
Today’s love horoscope for Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)
Mars, the planet of passion, war, and fury, spends the day in Taurus, and it also remains closely associated with Uranus.
This could mean that there is still strife in your family and in your home.
It’s a good idea not to pick battles or avoid arguments that you know can’t be won due to differences in mindset.
Today’s love horoscope for Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
It’s the little things that count, so it’s good to look at what you say and how.
Since Mars remains active in Taurus, your words take a little more bite.
And there are some personal sensitivities involved with you, so it’s good to be aware.
Mars will square Neptune in your sign, so you could get hurt without really knowing the cause.
