Weekly Love Horoscopes Are Here For September 28 - October 4 — There's No Hiding Anything This Week
Design: YourTango | Photo: Dean Drobot, CanvaAccording to the weekly love horoscopes for September 28 to October 4, 2026, every zodiac sign's love life is about to experience some big changes. We are still in the full moon energy this week, and a major shift occurs when Venus turns retrograde on October 3.
While Venus is retrograde in Scorpio until November 14, it's likely that past conflicts and issues pop back up. So do people from the past, which means there's a possibility for some drama. Since Scorpio is the most intense sign of the zodiac, we can all expect to experience a great deal of deep thinking and likely making changes that affect money, beauty, personal values, and love. Since Mercury also enters Scorpio on Wednesday this week, communication is about to get a lot deeper. Decisions made over the next few weeks are likely permanent, so this is not the time to take any of them lightly!
Weekly love horoscopes for September 28 to October 4, 2026:
Aries

Get ready for a week of reflection as Venus stations to turn retrograde this weekend. As the planet of love transits through your 8th house, you may reflect on deep themes from the past.
This will likely bring up difficult past memories or financial imbalances, Aries, but only so you can release them. I have a feeling you'll be spending more time than usual thinking about how to improve an intimate connection.
Prepare yourself for the weekend, which could bring some tense moments once Venus retrograde officially begins on Saturday.
Taurus

Venus retrogrades in your 7th house of partners, turning your focus inward at the end of the week, especially concerning a current relationship or love interest.
Mercury also enters your 7th house on Wednesday. It squares Pluto and Mars, meaning any tensions that have been building will likely come to the surface this week.
Patience, Taurus. You got this.
Gemini

While the week may have its heavy moments, you're actually in luck, Gemini. The Sun is transiting your 5th house of love, friends, and creativity.
So while your thinking may become deeper on an inner level, the Sun’s transit through this house helps you prioritize joy and pleasure this week, which is a bonus with all of the extreme planetary energies.
Cancer

Venus begins its retrograde through your 5th house of love this week along with Mercury in Scorpio. Don’t be surprised if tensions flare, especially when Mercury squares Pluto and Mars from mid-week on.
This can manifest as jealousy and obsessive feelings, which can easily lead to arguments. So it is important to be aware of the energy this week, Cancer. My advice? Let minor issues go.
Leo

Venus begins its retrograde in Scorpio on Saturday, making your feelings much more intense this week, Libra. As we approach mid-week, you may feel as though you have to defend yourself or speak up about something that has been on your mind.
To be honest, the weekend looks a little difficult with Mars in your first house opposing Pluto in your 7th house of partners. If you are in a solid relationship, you can work through this. If not, any mismatch in compatibility becomes abundantly clear by the end of the week.
Virgo

Virgo, this week I see you spending more time than usual thinking about how to find more balance in a relationship that has become draining.
When Mars opposes Pluto on Saturday, it's one of those days when something small could easily get blown out of proportion, especially if you have been dwelling on it rather than looking for a solution. Thankfully, Mercury is in Scorpio now, which is useful for getting to the bottom of things.
Libra

With the Sun transiting your 1st house, your personal magnetism is high this week. Venus beginning its retrograde in Scorpio and Mercury’s entrance into Scorpio only make you more charming, Libra.
There's just one thing to be aware of. If you share finances with someone, there could be an issue when Mercury squares Mars and Pluto, so do yourself a favor and use a little extra care in terms of how you communicate.
Scorpio

Venus retrogrades in your 1st house this week, so get ready for a few weeks of deep reflection concerning your love life. Or, if you are single, your lack of a love life.
Thankfully, Mars enters Leo this week, which makes you feel more confident, Scorpio. But there's also a chance it could trigger some major power struggles if you feel someone is being less than honest or you feel held back by someone.
Sagittarius

Good news, Sagittarius. That weird feeling of being mentally off finally goes away after this week. But there is some stuff you'll need to get through first.
Mercury moves into Scorpio, or your 12th house, which rules the subconscious mind, seclusion (and in some cases endings) on Wednesday. By Friday, a T-square forms involving Mercury, Mars, and Pluto, which could bring hidden truths to the surface.
Capricorn

Emotional vulnerability is a theme this week. Which I know you just love so much, Capricorn...!
A tense T-square forms mid-week involving Mars, Pluto, and Mercury, which can act like a pressure cooker if you try to avoid your true feelings or try managing someone else’s emotions.
As Venus retrogrades on Saturday, you may not feel so social if you are single. Either way, prepare to start reflecting on a current or past relationship.
Aquarius

One way or another, Aquarius, the heat gets turned up this week with Venus’s retrograde in intense Scorpio and Mars entrance into your 7th house of partners.
If you have been experiencing struggles with a love interest, expect the dam to break mid to late week. Everything is about to be out in the open, but this is a good thing. If you are solid, issues may still arise, but you can resolve them.
Pisces

Last week's Aries full moon encourages you to look deeply into your personal self-esteem this week. Expect to spend time thinking about why you react and pick the partners you do.
The Mars-Pluto-Mercury T-square may trigger anxieties or bring up trust issues from mid-week on. As Venus begins its retrograde this weekend, your thoughts will likely turn to past loves.
