Today you may feel like pulling back a bit. If you’re in a relationship, you might start questioning whether things are as perfect as they seem. It’s okay to feel uncertain—just take time to reflect. If you’re single, avoid rushing into any romantic situation today.
Taurus (April 20 – May 20)
Love might feel extra dreamy today, Taurus—but that dream may not match reality. If someone new is catching your attention, don’t ignore the red flags. For couples, take a moment to talk honestly. What are you hoping for, and what are you pretending not to see?
Gemini (May 21 – June 20)
Communication is your strength, but Neptune Retrograde can make your words feel foggy. If you’re feeling distant from your partner, speak gently and try not to overthink things. Singles may feel confused about what they want—give it time, and the truth will show itself.
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
Your emotional sensitivity is strong today, and that’s okay. You might feel overwhelmed by love—either by what you feel or what you’re missing. Instead of reacting quickly, give yourself space. Let your emotions settle before making any big decisions.
Leo (July 23 – August 22)
Leos love attention, but today you might feel like withdrawing. There may be a secret emotion rising that needs your attention. Whether you’re single or in a relationship, be honest with yourself about how much you’re giving versus how much you’re receiving.
Virgo (August 23 – September 22)
You usually like to keep things practical, but love may feel extra confusing today. Maybe your partner is acting differently or someone new is giving you mixed signals. Don’t try to fix everything—just take a step back and observe.
Libra (September 23 – October 22)
You might be romanticizing someone too much today. Neptune Retrograde reminds you that not everything is as perfect as it looks. Try not to ignore warning signs just because you want a fairytale ending. The real thing is better than fantasy.
Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)
Secrets could come to light today. Whether it’s a feeling you’ve been hiding or something your partner hasn’t said, be open to discovering the truth. It might sting, but in the end, you’ll be glad you knew. Trust your gut.
Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)
You may feel unsure about where a relationship is heading. Don’t panic—use today to journal, reflect, or talk things out gently. You like freedom, but commitment doesn’t have to mean losing yourself. Find a balance that works for you.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)
Neptune Retrograde is asking you to check in with your emotional side. You may be focused on work or responsibilities, but your heart needs attention too. Make time for love, even if it feels uncertain right now. Real connection takes effort.
Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)
You might feel a bit disconnected today—not just from your partner, but even from your own feelings. That’s normal during a retrograde. Instead of pushing things, just be present. Let love unfold naturally instead of trying to figure it all out.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
Neptune is your ruling planet, so you’ll feel this retrograde more than most. Emotions may feel heavier than usual. It’s a good time to rest, recharge, and avoid making big love decisions. Trust that clarity will return in the days ahead.
Final Thoughts
Neptune Retrograde isn’t here to ruin your love life—it’s here to wake you up. Today is more about reflection than action. Don’t jump to conclusions or chase perfect answers. Let the fog clear naturally.
Sometimes the most romantic thing you can do is be real—with yourself and with the person you love.
