Sex & Love Horoscope, Week of September 8, 2023, Cosmo Sexoscope

Cosmically speaking, it’s been a cruel summer. Now that the planets are quietly winding down, the vibe is a tad more freeing than it’s been over the past several months. The waning crescent Moon will be in Cancer until Sunday evening, when it enters Leo. The lunar aspects are pushing us to embrace self-love and our passions. Also, the Virgo Sun and Jupiter Retrograde connect today, urging us to have an ah-mazing time. This weekend’s astrology is full of restorative and exuberant energy.

What that means for *you*:

Aries

It’s been a stressful week for you, which is why you need to loosen up. Although you’re not lacking in options for sexual partners, sometimes you want to get down and pleasure yourself without anyone around. You should use this weekend as a time to focus solely on your desires and passions. If you need to use a memory from the past, then so be it. The only thing that matters is your ability to unwind and enjoy yourself. Think of this as your personal R&R—a space and place where multiple orgasms are crucial.

Taurus

Mark your calendar, sexy bull! This weekend is your time to embrace your sensual nature and to shine in the bedroom. Jupiter’s and Uranus’ connection with your Sun will bring your kinky side out. You’re known for your ability to work hard at every task you undertake, and your partner will appreciate your devilish and seductive qualities. Allow them to praise and honor you in reciprocal ways that would make the least virtuous bull blush with delight.

Gemini

Rather than going out on a boring date with a boring person, choose yourself. Take yourself out on a “master0-date” for one. Make a reservation for one at your favorite restaurant, check out the local art scene, or go to a movie with yourself. These activities will boost your self-esteem. By the time the intensity of Monday morning comes around, you’ll be happy that you spent time with yourself.

Cancer

A friend has the capacity to become more—at least for the time being. The romantic and flirtatious vibe between you and a pal is reaching a feverish high over the weekend. Their shyness is holding them back, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t take note of the situation and go after your desires. All the more reason why you should make a move by asking them out. The connection you share will translate to the bedroom, which is why you have to lean into the promise of a good time—no matter the consequences.

Leo

99.9% of the stresses at work are finally catching up to you. With all of the late nights you’ve been spending at the office, you are in need of a way to burn off steam. This may include going out with your crew to the local bar every night this weekend in hopes of relishing in the last days of summer, or connecting with a FWB for undercover action, or both. Regardless of what you choose to do, make sure you don’t find yourself checking work emails and taking calls from your boss.

Virgo

The never-ending ups and downs of your relationship are making your head spin. Even though you’re feeling a bit woozy from the constant fighting and making up, you are willing to give it another try. Since you aren’t sure which way date night will go over the weekend, pick a low-key date like miniature golf. The more time you spend talking and sharing laughs, the easier it’ll be to feel optimistic about the future ahead of you both. Don’t talk about the past—try to remain present. Keep it chill, light, and positive.

Libra

All work and no play can make even the most balanced Libra desperately need some fun. This weekend calls for you to head out with friends for cocktails and a concert—or anything else that gets your body moving. You might even meet someone who shares the same taste in music, someone who could become a longtime lover or even more—yes, even though it’s Mercury Retrograde. A minor flirtation has the capacity to become something meaningful in time. Keep an open mind and heart in order to ride these vibes and to seize the optimal moment.

Scorpio

When the going gets tough in relationships, you fight to make it work. But you don’t feel like putting the effort into your situationship right now, because your partner is doing the bare minimum. You shouldn’t have to give your S.O. another ultimatum in order to get their attention. You have two options: Take a break from the relationship or ask yourself how you want to proceed. Think things over before you react and become overemotional.

Sagittarius

You may find yourself thinking about “the one who got away” while reminiscing about the good old days. All the memories pouring through your mind will encourage you to do some social media sleuthing. Although you’ll decide to send a friendly “hello,” you don’t actually want to have a deep conversation about your current relationship status and situation. TBH, you just need a quick fix to answer your curiosity, and once you’ve got it, you’re ready to keep it moving.

Capricorn

You’re lost in the clouds, fantasizing about your dream lover. Although it’s a lot of fun to have mental sexcapades about your current celeb crush or the hot barista you see every morning, remember that you have to come down to earth at some point and deal with reality—even though you don’t necessarily want to right now. Free advice: If you’re feeling the urge to bring your desires into your relationship, you should try some role-playing.

Aquarius

There’s some juicy news coming your way from an ex, which could mean a big declaration, a sentimental text, or an apology for past mistakes. Before you get sucked back into the relationship dynamic, make sure you ensure that you don’t make the same mistakes twice. Remember, you’re the one in charge. They’ll be missing you 24/7 this time, not the other way around.

Pisces

It’s hard for you to maintain boundaries IRL when you often want to escape them in the boudoir. You’ll come to see that you must give some instructions when hooking up with your partner. You can even dictate how much foreplay you want and set the tone for the sexual encounter. Talking out loud about the sensual vibe you desire may make you feel skittish at first, but you’ll begin to gain confidence in the power that you hold in the bedroom. You got this!
