HOROSCOPES: It's time to be clear, not cryptic.

Natasha Weber is an astrology genius and has predicted our horoscopes for the week beginning March 2. For more from Natasha, follow her on Instagram and Facebook.

With Venus retrograding through your sign from Sunday until mid-April, your usual spending patterns get a reality check. Beyond money, your sense of worth in relationships is up for review. If you keep lowering the bar to keep someone around, whether a friend, partner, or boss, it's time to ask why. Your self-worth isn't up for negotiation; the next few weeks will clarify that. Expect a shift in what — and who — you invest in.

POWER DAY Thursday.

The week starts with a social whirlwind, a party, a networking event, or an impromptu dinner that turns into an all-nighter. You're in demand, and it feels good. But the energy shifts as Mercury taps the brakes later in the week. Plans get rescheduled, conversations feel sluggish, or you realise you've over-committed. Take the hint. Instead of forcing momentum, use this slowdown to reflect: Are you socialising for joy or just out of habit?

POWER DAY Monday.

Effort breeds luck this week, thanks to Jupiter's influence. Send the email, take the meeting, and put in the reps; momentum builds when you do the work. At the same time, you're wrestling with a dream that feels just out of reach. Overthinking won't crack it. Let your brain breathe. Ideas surface in unexpected places — a lyric on the radio, a half-dream before waking. Pay attention. Your next breakthrough won't arrive on a schedule.

POWER DAY Monday.

Thanks to Mercury, a deal is sealed this week. It could be a job offer, a lease, or even just confirming weekend plans that took way too many texts to finalise. Mercury pushes things forward, but Saturday brings the real momentum. A key insight or a well-timed suggestion could shift your approach entirely. Someone might unknowingly drop the exact advice you need, or you'll stumble on information that reframes everything. What you do with this knowledge could change your course.

POWER DAY Saturday.

Couples, your partner might surprise you with a confession or open up about a spicy fantasy. How you respond will shape what happens next. And singles, attraction is thick in the air, but so is the feeling that not everything is being said. That intriguing stranger might be fun, but are they being upfront? Before diving in, look beyond the charm. Is this mystery exciting, or is it a red flag in disguise?

POWER DAY Monday.

This week, a close relationship delivers a lesson, whether through conflict, confession, or an overdue realisation. Someone's actions — or absence — force you to rethink what you accept, expect, or give. It's a shift you won't unsee. Then Venus' retrograde calls your attention to shared money matters. Maybe it's a lopsided financial dynamic or a deal that no longer feels fair. A better approach is coming, but for now, sit with the discomfort. It's teaching you something valuable.

POWER DAY Monday.

Mercury shouts: Hype yourself up! Self-promotion is a power move, not a boast. Update your LinkedIn, pitch that idea, or remind yourself what you bring to the table. Venus isn't letting relationships coast. Unhappy couples may reach a breaking point, realising that staying out of habit isn't love. And singles, it's time to rethink your checklist. Is "must love hiking" really essential, or are you just repeating old patterns? The right connection might not fit your old script.

POWER DAY Sunday.

When the Sun and Jupiter sync on Monday, romantic love or a relationship with a child benefits from an honest conversation — but only if you say what you really mean. Don't let vague words blur your message. No cryptic hints, no expecting them to "just know". Neptune brings out your creative streak this week, perfect for storytelling, design, or even revamping your space. Follow your impulses. Overthinking kills inspiration, so trust the process, and something unexpectedly brilliant could emerge.

POWER DAY Saturday.

Love doesn't have a blueprint, and Venus wants you to remember that. If you're single, be open to surprises; chemistry isn't always logical. Couples, mind-blowing sex is more about fun, laughter, and even a little mischief this week. By Thursday, Mercury's link to Pluto helps crack a problem you've been stuck on. It could be a financial snag, a confusing text finally explained, or a mental breakthrough that changes how you see things.

POWER DAY Monday.

Venus supports you in breaking a family pattern that no longer serves you. If money has always felt like a source of stress, or you have a habit of staying silent to keep the peace, it is time to rewrite the script. Mercury highlights a situation at home or with a female relative that needs attention. A long-overdue conversation could clear the air, whether it is about an old grudge or a practical issue that keeps resurfacing.

POWER DAY Saturday.

Venus says stop playing small. Don't dim your light just to keep the peace in relationships, work, or friendships. This week also brings financial opportunities, but Neptune advises caution. A new gig, investment, or deal might sound exciting, but does it actually hold up? Skip the get-rich-quick vibe and stick with what has a track record. The best move isn't always the most exciting one; it's the one that has staying power.

POWER DAY Thursday.

When words flow easily, so does connection (and chemistry). If you're on a date, pay attention to how the conversation feels rather than getting caught up in the perfect match on paper. Couples, communication needs a little extra effort this week. If something matters to you, say it clearly instead of assuming your partner already knows. Venus reminds you to appreciate what is working in your life. The more you recognise the positives, the more abundance you'll attract.
