After going into hibernation in the second half of 2020, romantic and relationship matters are starting to awaken this month though to start with, it is business as usual on both fronts. Neptune has been in direct motion in your romantic sector since late November but it is the Sun and Venus' return next month that will begin the most romantically charged months of 2021. With lucky Jupiter returning in May, next month's developments will be a stepping stone to something much bigger. The Moon's return from 16th January to 18th January will be a chance to check in but these romantically charged lunar vibes are just a taste of things to come. Meanwhile, while you wait for things to fully awaken on the romantic front, they are set to become fully awake on the relationship front this month. To begin with Uranus, in your relationship sector until 2026 is on his own and in retrograde motion, as he has been since August but both those situations are about to change. It begins with Mars' return to your relationship sector on 7th January, months after he should have returned had he not turned retrograde. In a case of better late than never, Mars returns with perfect timing. That is because Mars will not only return a week before Uranus' direct turn on 14th January but two days before Venus, the planet of love returns to your communication sector on 7th January. Held back by her own retrograde phase last year, Venus is late to return to your communication sector as well but will not only return two days after Mars' return to your relationship sector but they will immediately form a friendly aspect. Mars will return to fire things up and get things moving on the relationship front while Venus will return to begin her belated visit to give your heart and your relationships a voice within 48 hours of each other. Venus will stay in your communication sector until 2nd February and Mars in your relationship sector until 3rd March.
