Your 2023 Sex Horoscope Says You'll Be Coming First

Although 2023 may have started on a bit of a chaotic note in the love and sex space — Shakira was allegedly cheated on, Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Fox had a weird breakup scare, and Penn Badgley opened up about why he no longer wanted to do intimacy scenes on "You" — we can at least count on the upcoming astrological transits for incredible opportunities for passion and sex the rest of 2023.

The astrology of 2023 will continue to usher in immense change, thanks to a few notable planetary movements: taskmaster Saturn enters watery Pisces on March 7, giving us an abundance of hope in our approach to sex (though sometimes at the expense of our boundaries); transformational Pluto briefly enters idealistic Aquarius from March 23 to June 11, encouraging us to embrace authenticity in the bedroom; and benefic Jupiter enters earthy Taurus on May 16, bringing a "slow burn" energy to our sex lives.

Additionally, Venus, Saturn, Jupiter, and Pluto all retrograde in 2023, times we'll be able to use as checkpoints for our sensual endeavors — opportunities to reflect, reassess, and, if necessary, redirect our passions throughout the year. There will also be four eclipses that will throw us destined curveballs in the spring and fall, opening up new cycles of self-discovery in love, self-love, sex, and self-pleasure while encouraging us to let go of what's no longer serving us.

Aside from this, the North Node will enter Aries and the South Node will enter Libra on July 17, and they'll be in this axis for the rest of the year. These shifts encourage us to be selfish in the bedroom. If that feels like a negative ask, reconsider: the South Node represents the karmic past and our stuck points, and the South Node in balanced Libra may shine a light on the ways in which we've overcompromised in our relationships for the sake of keeping the peace. At the same time, the North Node of fate and destiny entering independent Aries reminds us that our needs matter just as much as our partners'. To tap into our inner fire and true pleasure, then, we'll have to learn to release our desire to please our partners and to instead put ourselves first. Rest assured, doing so will reward us by helping us unlock an entirely new level of satisfaction and passion.

If there's one main message to keep in mind as we approach intimacy the rest of 2023, it's that we'll need to keep our own needs and desire for sensual exploration at the forefront in order to truly enjoy an authentic and satisfying bond — not only with our partners but also with ourselves. For more specific insight into what to expect in your sex life for the rest of 2023, find your sun sign or rising sign below and see what's being highlighted for you in the year ahead.

Aries (March 21-April 19) 2023 Sex Horoscope

Prioritize your sexual needs, Aries. Lean into your selfishness with self-pleasure and intimacy when the sun enters your sign soon in mid-March. Since the exalted sun in your sign is oozing with sensuality, this is the perfect time to make your grand debut as a sexual icon. No matter if you're single or coupled, your season will surely bring you the confidence you need to assert your desires with a partner, or even in your solo play sessions. By the new-moon solar eclipse in your sign on April 20, you should set the intention to unabashedly own your sexual needs over the next six months.

That said, you will need to say goodbye to any entanglements during the full-moon penumbral lunar eclipse in Scorpio in early May. Although a deep bond may come to an unexpected conclusion, it might be for the best if your intimacy needs are not being met. Don't worry, you'll have plenty of opportunities to show off in the bedroom when Mars enters Leo on May 20, followed by Venus entering Leo on June 5. The warm, fiery confidence of the Lion will give you a roaring sex life until Venus stations retrograde in Leo from July 22 to Sept. 3. Although Venus retrograde may pause romantic opportunities, it could be just what you and your partner need to ensure you're both on the same page. Whether you sync back up again or move on, it'll all be in service to a healthier, more fiery sex life.

Fate and destiny will change in your favor throughout the summer when the North Node enters your sign at the same time the South Node enters Libra in mid-July. For the rest of the year, you'll need to focus on asserting your needs and expectations for intimacy to avoid repeating any past mistakes. Although it might be a little aggressive at times, the North Node can help you attain what you desire.

By mid-October, you'll feel like it's time for you to couple up — it's not just cuffing season, it's also the new-moon solar eclipse in Libra. This fated yet unpredictable lunation could bring a new lover into your orbit or help you take your sex life with an existing partner to the next level in an unexpected way. As Venus enters Libra on Nov. 8, you may find yourself settling into a commitment — but don't forget yourself in this process. Remember, the theme of this year is selfishness: make sure you're getting what you want before settling into a routine in bed.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) 2023 Sex Horoscope

Take advantage of new opportunities to indulge in your sexual fantasies and kinks, Taurus. But first, you'll need to let go of any unfulfilling sexual inhibitions during the full moon in Virgo on March 7. By doing so, you'll be set up for success to do a deep dive into your subconscious sexual desires during the new-moon solar eclipse in Aries on April 20.

You may run into a few bumps in the road in your year-long quest to lean into your sensuality and uncover any hidden fantasies. The first will come when Mercury stations retrograde in your sign from April 21 to May 14. You may feel unsure of yourself and your desirability since Mercury retrograde may cause you to overthink if someone is interested in you. Remember: you have the power to make Mercury retrograde whatever you want it to be, so use this time to reassure yourself that you're wanted. That way, you'll be able to enter summer lit up with an irresistibly sexy inner confidence.

At the same time, the full-moon penumbral lunar eclipse in Scorpio on May 5 may bring a sensual relationship or burning crush to an unexpected yet fated culmination. Take whatever happens as a sign to keep moving forward.

Another trying period may be when Jupiter stations retrograde in your sign from June 17 to Dec. 30, which will be compounded by Uranus retrograde in your sign starting Aug. 28. Although you may feel doubtful of your sexual potency or your ability to have the type of sex you want, this is actually a beautiful opportunity to step into your authenticity. Use both retrogrades to work on feeling confident in your charisma and desires while getting comfortable with a lack of control when it comes to romance.

By the end of summer, you may feel somewhat unsure of your love life, and when Mercury stations retrograde in Virgo from Aug. 23 to Sept. 15, some of your sexcapades will get a little messy — especially if there's a lack of boundaries or certainty about your relationship. This is where your tenacity and bullishness come in handy. All you'll need to do to push through is be extra clear about your desires, expectations, and consent. Happily, this period of sensual revision will set you up to have informed intentions and manifestations for your love life during the new moon in Virgo mid-September. After you put in some work in the first half of the year, you'll be rewarded: watch your sex life flourish throughout the rest of 2023.

Gemini (May 21-June 21) 2023 Sex Horoscope

Dive deeper into your sensual curiosities, Gemini. January may have been a slow burn for you, since Mars was retrograde in your sign through mid-January, and Mercury retrograde in Capricorn lasted until Jan. 18. But perhaps you learned to rethink how you approach intimacy and how you can feel more self-assured when it comes to owning and expressing your desires.

Fortunately, there's better news coming: By April 6, when there's a full moon in Libra, you'll feel a shift. It'll become easier to own your sexuality, and accepting your sexual self will bring you inner harmony and balance. By the time the sun enters your sign on May 21, you'll feel curious and animated. Your season is your time to shine with confidence, so this might be an excellent time to explore your sexual interests. The Pluto retrograde in Capricorn from June 11 to Oct. 10 only strengthens your ability to harness your power, enabling you to instill better boundaries in your intimate relationships.

Around July 6, you may need to cut any entanglements out of your life to feel more empowered during the full moon in Capricorn. If ending a FWB deal or situationship to better your sex life seems counterintuitive, think of it this way: you're putting your entire faith in yourself as the person who's in control of your ability to access pleasure, rather than relying on others. Knowing that you can make yourself feel good is not just confidence boosting — it also enables you to share who you are and what you want on a deeper, more personal, and more effective level with your sexual partners. That might mean opening up about a kink you've wanted to explore or being honest about a certain position you know is key to getting you off — and as a result, being able to have the kind of truly earth-shaking sex you've always wanted.

Taking advantage of the full moon can help you ease into your sexual assertion when Mars enters Libra on Aug. 27. Given that the sensual planet is in the sign of the scales, you may feel more inclined to seek out reciprocal sexual relationships where you feel a sense of peace with your partner. Expect to feel more sexually mature during the full moon in your sign at the end of November; it may even conclude a chapter of indecision. By the new moon in Sagittarius on Dec. 12, you could manifest exploring new sexual terrain with your partner. (Didn't we say you'll be exploring your sexual curiosities all year long?)

Cancer (June 22-July 22) 2023 Sex Horoscope

Are you ready to take your sex life to the next level, Cancer? Get ready for transformation when Pluto enters Aquarius on March 23. Pluto, the planet of death and rebirth, will encourage you to take an unconventional yet logical approach to your sex life. It could even expose anything hidden, so if you've been sitting on a particular desire or kink you've wanted to explore, this may be the time it surfaces. However, Pluto will station retrograde in Aquarius on May 1, which will be your time to be incredibly honest with yourself about your desire. A sexual revolution will be on the rise throughout Pluto retrograde, giving you the time to explore your body, your fantasies, toys, and more. By springtime, you may feel like there will be a destined outcome with your sensual bonds when the full-moon lunar eclipse in Scorpio occurs on May 5. This eclipse may result in a fated yet unpredictable culmination that will take your breath away. Know that whatever happens is meant to be!

At the beginning of summer, you may notice a subtle yet powerful shift in your sex life when Pluto retrograde, which has had you reconsidering what you need from your sexual encounters since May 1, leaves Aquarius for Capricorn on June 11. Now back in your opposite sign, Pluto retrograde will transform your subconscious relationship with sex until Oct. 10. Secretive yet seductive, you may find that this inner transformation illuminates your sensual talents and fears. You can use this time to overcome your fear of intimacy or vulnerability since Pluto retrograde could help you become sexually savvy. Don't be afraid to watch new genres of porn or to introduce different sex toys into the bedroom. Overcoming your inhibitions can be incredibly orgasmic!

The full moon in Capricorn in early July and the full moon in Aquarius in early August both offer opportunities to refocus. Your word of the year is "intimacy," and these full moons will encourage you to ditch any immaturity that might be causing you to shy away from the type of deep, vulnerable intimacy that can be scary to lose yourself to. But the reward of leaning into this kind of sensual bond is indescribable — some of the best sex comes from being able to be totally bare before someone else, literally and figuratively.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) 2023 Sex Horoscope

Leo, your sex life is about to be incredibly unique — as long as you stay grounded in reality and don't get too lost in fantasy. The year opened up with a new moon in Aquarius on Jan. 21, giving you a flirty energy. Some watery, compassionate Pisces vibes in the following couple of months — specifically, the new moon in Pisces on Feb. 20 and Saturn entering Pisces on March 7 — will add a deepness to your connections, which translates into more intense sex as well. But be aware: with Pluto entering Aquarius at the end of March, your desire for commitment will intensify. You'll want to DTR — any R, even one that has been firmly established as excitingly casual. So while it's fine to take your sex life and your sex partners more seriously, make sure you're thinking rationally before bringing up any deep talks, especially when Pluto stations retrograde in Aquarius from May 1 to June 11. If you find yourself thinking about someone obsessively, consider taking a step back until you're feeling more grounded.

Summertime will be undeniably fierce, starting when the full moon in Sagittarius revs up your sensuality on June 3. Full moons are extremely potent, so this could be the perfect time to shoot your shot with that person you've been crushing on or to put your desires all out in the open in an existing sexual relationship. But if something isn't working for you sexually anymore, then the full moon in Sagittarius may encourage you to be candid about what you need to let go of in the bedroom.

Another good time to be honest with what you desire in an intimate bond is in the second half of the year: Saturn stations retrograde in Pisces from June 17 to Nov. 4 and Neptune stations retrograde in Pisces from June 30 to Dec. 6, and both of these backspins will shine a light on your hidden sexual and emotional cravings. If you've let go of a sex partner or bedroom activity you're no longer enjoying during the Sagittarius full moon, you can think of these retrogrades as an opportunity to fill in those spaces with the type of sex you do want to be having. That can be as simple as a position change-up (down with doggy, in with missionary) or it might be a more radical shift.

A word of warning: toward the end of summer, you may not feel your usual confident self, since Venus will station retrograde in your sign from July 22 to Sept. 3. Although this may dim your radiance, you can view Venus retrograde as a time to love and cherish every inch of your body. It could also give you a new perspective to consider under the full moon in Aquarius on Aug. 1. Putting yourself and your pleasure first may illuminate what you need or where your partner is falling short.

So although the summer might be challenging, you can expect your love life to get hot and heavy again when Mars enters frisky Sagittarius on Nov. 24. If you've been dying to try something new, like a toy or position, then set the intention to be more sexually adventurous during the new moon in Sagittarius in mid-December.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) 2023 Sex Horoscope

Virgo, it's time to embrace your sensuality and desire for commitment. Although January started the year off on a rocky start with ghosts of lovers' past coming to light during Mercury retrograde in Capricorn, let's hope you learned to lay these exes to rest. By the time Mercury stationed direct on Jan. 18, you may have felt more self-assured and free to completely abandon yourself to new sexual endeavors.

Fortunately, the new moon in Pisces on Feb. 20 has opened up a six-month cycle that will allow you to seek a more emotionally, spiritually, and sexually fulfilling relationship. Saturn entering Pisces at the beginning of March is the perfect transit to coincide with that cycle, since the ringed planet can help you instill better boundaries, and just as "good fences make good neighbors," good boundaries make for steamier sex. With these transits setting you up for success, the new-moon solar eclipse in Aries on April 20 will be free to deepen your intimacy with others in unexpected yet fated ways.

At the beginning of summer, two retrogrades throw a curveball in your sex life: Pluto retrograde entering Capricorn from June 11 to Oct. 10 and Saturn retrograde entering Pisces from June 17 to Nov. 14. Use the two backspins as a cosmic opportunity to find your sensual power and authority, which will ultimately help you set the record straight in love. Since Neptune will also station retrograde in Pisces from June 30 to Dec. 6, a movement that will illuminate your blind spots, you may have a more intuitive yet discerning approach to your romantic and sexual relationships. Take off your rose-colored glasses to get a crystal-clear view.

Work on bringing your sex life to an orgasmic culmination during the full moon in Capricorn in early July. You may feel ready to ask for something more since the lunation may help you feel more confident about expressing your sexual needs or exploring your sexual fantasies. The full moon in Pisces will follow shortly after on Aug. 30, creating a make-it-or-break-it time with your love life. Your partner may need to rise to the occasion to fulfill your needs, or this spiritual full moon could remind you to have hope that you will find your sensual soulmate — that great sex is in your future, even if it's not with your current bedmate.

Don't be alarmed if your confidence takes a dip when Mercury stations retrograde in your sign from Aug. 23 to Sept. 15. Although Mercury retrograde could initially ding your self-assuredness, this transit is still a sneaky time to experiment with your sensuality, charisma, and flirtatiousness. Think of Mercury retrograde as a "no harm, no foul" period in your sex life that encourages you to embrace your sensual audacity by being upfront instead of beating around the bush. Try not to overthink it. Mercury retrograde is your opportunity to be direct in the bedroom.

Toward the end of the year, you'll have another opportunity to explore your new and old sexual wishes when Mercury stations retrograde again in Capricorn in mid-December. The beginning and end of 2023 may feel similar; they're both times to own who you are and what you want

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) 2023 Sex Horoscope

Are you ready for a twist in your sensual fate and destiny, Libra? Although the new moon in Aquarius on Jan. 21 was unconventional, let's hope it helped you dive into your desires without fear of being judged or reprimanded.

Pluto entering Aquarius on March 23 could represent a sexual tug-of-war, with the distant planet's intense yet seductive presence suggesting that power and control may make a presence in the bedroom. Now, this could be sexy; playing with dominance and submissiveness in your sex life is a common fantasy and one that could be exciting to explore. But Pluto in Aquarius could also be disempowering if you feel like your needs are not being met or if your partner is not open to your fantasies. Luckily, the full moon in your sign in early April can help you walk away from any insecurities or self-doubt that might be holding you back from embracing your desires.

Be prepared for the new-moon solar eclipse in Aries on April 20 to take you on a wild ride in self-discovery and self-pleasure — you'll likely be prioritizing your relationship with yourself during this time, which tends to result in an abundance of courage and sexual exploration. Exploring your sensual side by yourself, by experimenting with new forms of solo play, could feel like an act of empowerment, with Pluto stationing retrograde in Aquarius from May 1 to June 11.

This backspin could also be a good time to explore any sexual inhibitions or limitations in your relationships, which may allow you and your partner to have a more authentic connection. That said, the retrograde will coincide with Jupiter entering Taurus on May 16 followed by the new moon in Taurus on May 19. While these transits can help you explore intimacy (both on your own or in a relationship), it's best to not engage in any entanglements at this time, since Jupiter could blow a hidden affair or secret love interest out of proportion. Consider it a good season for self-love.

By mid-July, the cosmos will align in your favor to put yourself first in and out of the bedroom, when the North Node enters Aries and the South Node enters your sign. However, you'll have to be mindful of letting go of any people-pleasing tendencies to avoid overcompromising your wants and needs throughout this Nodal transit. Your first chance to do so will be the full moon in Aquarius on Aug. 1 since this will represent the culmination of sexual exploration. Release your inhibition during the full moon to embrace your sexual authenticity — if you can, you'll experience some truly explosive sexual escapades. Then fast-forward to the full-moon partial solar eclipse in Taurus on Oct. 28, since your intimate bonds (or entanglements) will come to an unexpected yet destined culmination. Consider this your time to let go of any coveted yet unfulfilling bonds, while owning what you secretly desire.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) 2023 Sex Horoscope

You have the power to engage in a beautifully stable sex life over messy, drama-filled entanglements, Scorpio. When Venus became exalted in Pisces on Jan. 26, this energy may have encouraged you to have a more romantic approach to sex. But as we move throughout the spring, you'll need to step out of your comfort zone over and over again, making a choice to embrace more stability.

Your first opportunity to do so will be the full-moon lunar eclipse in your sign in early May. Since this eclipse is slightly unpredictable — yet fated — you may notice a massive change in who you are as a lover and partner. Use this eclipse to let go of any habits you may have that don't amplify your sex life in a positive, healthy way (such as not communicating about what you want or rushing into sex before you're really comfortable).

You may feel ready to explore your opportunities for commitment when Jupiter enters Taurus followed by the new moon in Taurus in mid-May. This might feel like a big deal for Scorpios, who are incredibly loyal but can take their time to commit. The new moon in Gemini on June 18 may help you feel safer testing the waters of sexual intimacy in your relationships, but allowing yourself to be vulnerable will still be difficult. Trust, this year, it's key. You're ready to dive deeper with people in 2023, and the sex that results from intimacy can leave stars in your eyes.

Expect the unexpected throughout the remainder of the year. Uranus will station retrograde in Taurus on Aug. 23 followed by Jupiter stationing retrograde in Taurus from Sept. 4 to Dec. 30. Both transits may upend your sex life, especially if you've shied away from doing a deep dive into your needs. This could be the perfect time to embrace stepping out of your comfort zone, especially as it relates to baring yourself in front of someone else, like opening up about your secret fantasies to a partner. If you take the risk, it could be a wonderfully transformative time that allows you to become more sexually and romantically authentic in your relationships. Expect this to lead to unexpected yet fated culminations with your views on intimacy and commitment during the full-moon partial lunar eclipse in Taurus at the end of October. Whatever happens is meant to be!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) 2023 Sex Horoscope

If any zodiac sign is overdue for new sexual horizons, it's you, Sagittarius. At the beginning of January, you focused on harnessing your power to nurture a healthy and happy relationship with intimacy. The full moon in cancer on Jan. 6 was the perfect time to let go of any entanglements that kept you from experiencing a deeper relationship with physical, spiritual, and emotional intimacy. This might have even helped you alleviate the stress of a low sex drive that may have occurred throughout Mars retrograde since the planet of sex finally stationed direct in Gemini in mid-January. After that, you felt more lighthearted, playful, and curious as your sexual vitality soared.

Embrace the sexual chaos of the new-moon solar eclipse in Aries on April 20. This lunation will begin a new cycle that will allow you to dive into your sexuality. You might be surprised by what you find. Be courageous as you explore new sexual terrain either on your own or with a lover. You might be juggling a few relationships at once when the new moon in Gemini begins a new cycle in relationships and commitments on June 18. If not, then the new moon could encourage open communication in your relationship, which may lead to interesting yet exciting conversations between you and your partner — you may stumble upon a miscommunication that's been acting as a roadblock in your sex life, for instance. No matter what, you'll have a more open-minded approach to taking the lead with physical and emotional intimacy following the new moon in Cancer on July 17. All three lunations will surely set you up for a sexually adventurous summer.

Fate and destiny will shift in your favor when the North Node enters Aries and the South Node enters Libra in mid-July. Focus on shedding any people-pleasing tendencies in the bedroom where your needs aren't being met. Instead, use the North Node to put you on the path of sensual trailblazing. You may feel increasingly bold and confident as you pursue your desires with an assertive mentality. Given that the full moon in Aries on Sept. 29 is calling to close a six-month cycle of sexual exploration, consider this your time to let go of any limitations or inhibitions. Be honest about what you want or need since you should prioritize your desires. Whatever comes out of this full moon will impact the standing of your relationship during the full moon in Gemini at the end of November. Communicate what you need, or let your partner know if you're ready to move on during this full moon. You'll have an opportunity to say a final goodbye on Dec. 26, during the full moon in Cancer.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) 2023 Sex Horoscope

Get out of your sexual comfort zone by exploring new positions, toys, and more with a trusted partner, Capricorn. That journey began with you solidifying the emotional bonds in your relationships during the full moon in Cancer on Jan. 6. You used this full moon as a time to come to peace with what you wanted and needed from your partners both in and out of the bedroom, which in turn helped you feel more at ease asking for what you want during sex. Well done.

This foundation will help you out in mid-May when Jupiter enters earthy Taurus followed by the new moon in Taurus. Jupiter will steadily expand your sensuality and sexual opportunities, allowing you to build trust in the bedroom as you share your sexual wishes with your partner. You can even lean on Jupiter for guidance to explore the outskirts of your sexual comfort zone, especially by setting the intention to do so under the new moon. When the new moon unfolds, it'll kick off a new six-month cycle that allows you to build a deeper relationship with your sensuality.

Prepare for an introspective summer as you learn more about yourself, your body, and your partners. When Pluto retrograde unfolds in your sign from June 11 to Oct. 10, you can use this time to amplify your attractiveness. Initially, this backspin is disempowering, and you may feel insecure. But over time, Pluto retrograde may help you see the full scope of your allure, lending you newfound sexual confidence.

Mid-July's new moon in Cancer could be the perfect time to manifest a more empathetic and intuitive sensual relationship. Focus on nurturing the sexual awakening that could come from this new moon, but be prepared to have it unfold in an atypical yet authentic way when Uranus stations retrograde in Taurus on Aug. 23. Jupiter stations retrograde in Taurus from Sept. 4 to Dec. 30, urging you to focus on the basics of sex to feel sexually comfortable with yourself and a partner. Use this time to reel it in, focus on what you need, and build a more stable bond through sexual exploration. Spend some time on solo play and quieter, more "vanilla" partnered sex to remind yourself and your partner of your foundational likes and dislikes; this work will pay off.

During the full-moon lunar eclipse in Taurus on Oct. 28, you may experience an unexpected yet fated culmination with dating, sex, and pleasure. Although this lunation may feel destabilizing, it could allow you to break down whatever might be holding you back from greater sexual and romantic fulfillment. The full moon in Cancer will follow at the end of December, allowing you to shut down whatever's not working in your relationships before 2023 is over, freeing you up for more fun and pleasure in the following year.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) 2023 Sex Horoscope

Your sex life will continue to explode, Aquarius! You felt ready to fully explore some sexual opportunities over others when Mars stationed direct in Gemini on Jan. 12, and these dabblings helped you feel more mentally at ease about your preferences, sexuality, and desires. Given that there was an audacious full moon in Leo on Feb. 5 during your astrological season, you started the year feeling bold and brave as you approached your sexual endeavors. Continue to embody the spirit of the Lion by wearing your favorite underthings and taking your time with foreplay.

Summertime might be a bit messy if you aren't careful. Beginning on June 5, Venus will enter Leo, boosting your confidence to pursue a sexually fulfilling and freeing relationship. However, you will need to work on letting go of ego or pride since this may dampen your sex life. Sex is meant to be passionate, vulnerable, and raunchy. Enjoy every moment with yourself or your partner, since it can lead to greater sexual satisfaction. Regardless, Venus in Leo will give you the confidence you need to be more confident with eroticism. If you're seeking new opportunities to explore your sexual curiosities in a lighthearted manner, then set the intention to do so under the new moon on June 18. This new cycle can help you communicate what you want to learn, explore, and try in the bedroom. Given that Mars will enter Virgo on July 10, you should also focus on reinforcing boundaries and expectations for intimate relationships. Communication will be key to avoid upsetting misunderstandings or failed dalliances, especially when Venus stations retrograde in Leo from July 22 to Sept. 3. Having fulfilling sex might not be easy during this time — but, as always, Venus retrograde will be enlightening if nothing else.

Though new moons are a great time to set intentions, be extra careful about what you wish for during the new moon in Leo in mid-August; Venus retrograde will still be going on, causing mishaps in your romantic life. Rather than trying to manifest the type of sex you want at this time, first, do your best to clear the air regarding any past sexual miscommunications or wounds before Mercury stations retrograde in Virgo from Aug. 23 to Sept. 15. That backspin will bring to light hidden desires (or relationships). In other words, if you've been less than honest about, say, having more than one partner or faking orgasms during sex, it might be best to hold yourself accountable before your secrets come out.

Even though the summer will be a bit messy, you can manifest more passion or intimacy during the new moon in Virgo in mid-September. Focus on ending the year with a clear idea about who you are as a partner and what you need in the bedroom so you can walk into winter with a clear head and a clear conscience.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) 2023 Sex Horoscope

Continue to look for "the one" who will help you create the fireworks you've been dreaming of in the bedroom, Pisces. A romantic full moon in Cancer started your year on Jan. 6 as it called a six-month cycle to a close. Under the full moon, you may have found that you were more open-minded and confident in pursuing your heart's desire. Sex now has a more emotional and intuitive touch, especially if you wanted to bond with your lover through sexual exploration. Since there will be another full moon in Libra on April 6, this may help you decide what reciprocity in intimacy looks like by letting go of any bonds or individuals who disrupt your peace of mind.

A rabbit hole of self-discovery will open in the second half of the year as Saturn stations retrograde in your sign from June 12 to Nov. 4 and Neptune stations retrograde in your sign from June 30 to Dec. 6. Both retrogrades are highly introspective, giving you the time to think about what you can improve upon as a sexual partner. You might be surprised by what kind of work you need to do, but it will be worthwhile.

Don't be afraid to be more assertive with your boundaries and expectations when Mars enters your opposite sign, Virgo, in mid-July. Shortly after, around July 17, the new moon in Cancer will kick off a new sexual cycle. Part of this might be manifesting an emotionally intimate bond, through which your sexual expression and exploration can be amplified. However, you'll need to let go of people-pleasing tendencies that may lead to a lack of boundaries and fulfillment when the South Node enters Libra during the new moon.

Throughout the fall and winter, there will be plenty of opportunities to reconsider what you want in your sexual life, as Mercury retrograde in Virgo unfolds from Aug. 23 to Sept. 15. With the new moon in Virgo on Sept. 14 opening up a new cycle of commitment, this could be the perfect time to manifest the sexual partnership of your dreams, whether it's with a new connection or your current partner. You won't have to wait long. Mid-October, your views on intimacy and sacred bonds will take an unexpected yet fated twist during the new-moon annular solar eclipse in Libra.
