Mercury often gets a bit ignored when it comes to matters of astrological compatibility, and that's a shame: Mercury rules communication, and how do you even start (let alone maintain) a relationship without it? This weekend, Mercury's practical and literal manner is softened by a sextile to Neptune, yet given strength and form by another sextile... this time, to Saturn. It's rare astrological line-up, and an ideal time to write a love letter, make peace with someone, or send that first e-mail on a dating site (hint, hint).

FRIDAY: Moon in Gemini loves a good conversation, and this evening that Moon is trine Venus, adding sweetness... and square Mars, which adds spice. In other words: if you've had any romantic plans towards someone, now is the time you might literally talk them into playing along. You might get talked into something yourself, so either way... watch your words.

SATURDAY: The first part of the day, get your thoughts and e-mails lined up and fire away: Moon in late Gemini joins the Mercury/Saturn/Neptune alignment, putting half the solar system squarely in place to give words and ideas added influence. Later in the evening, Moon in Cancer might normally be a little too "clingy" for some people's tastes, but after all that thinking and talking, it's a sweet, emotional relief.

SUNDAY: The Moon builds to Full in the evening, involving Cancer and Capricorn. This is an excellent time to review what you've faced recently, and gives contacts of an emotional nature an added boost. Also, it's a particularly sentimental time, so if there are any old flames out there that need kindling, now's the time.
