Sometimes love just isn’t enough. We come into this world thinking that love is the answer to all our questions and that if someone loves us, we don’t have to worry. “As long as we are loved,” right? Love saves the day. Kind regards to the rescue. Love is enough.
No, love is not enough, and on this day, November 20, 2023, during the Moon’s transit to square Mars, it most certainly is not enough. Love doesn’t pay the rent or the bills – money does. Which three zodiac signs will get a real taste of what love tastes like when it fails?
Sometimes love just isn’t good enough, and sometimes being loved isn’t enough… even being desperately loved isn’t enough, which is what we need because this life is based on reality. Love doesn’t always fit well with reality.
During the Moon-square-Mars era, we’ll be going all out when it comes to our romantic partners trying to convince us that everything will be okay because they love us. We have heard this story before, and here we are still unable to see how everything is okay. Love was not expressed in the areas where we needed it and so on this day, November 20, 2023, we say goodbye to bad love.
The three zodiac signs say no to bad love on November 20, 2023:
1. Sagittarius
(November 22nd – December 21st)
What will wake you up on November 20, 2023 is the wonderful feeling of knowing that you have just shed a skin, meaning you have learned a great lesson and will not be going back. The person you were in love with really pushed their luck; They don’t keep any of their promises and things don’t seem to be getting any better. They continue to tell you how much they love you…so much, and you start to feel like the word “love” is just…cheap.
What does her love do for you? They wouldn’t feel this way if they could just support their weight. It seems like this person just figured out that all they need to do is tell you they love you so you can be available to them. And on this day, during the Moon’s transit square Mars, you will tell them that their version of “love” is so far from anything that could be called love that it is detestable.
Love is meaningless to you if there is nothing behind it. Empty words and lackluster efforts are trash to you because you are someone who needs more than just words in this life, Sagittarius. You have given your partner your trust, your life, your love and all you see in return are the words: “I love you.” Nothing more than words. No actions, no meaning, no effort. This person is wasting your time, and while Moon squares Mars, you know it’s true.
2. Capricorn
(December 22nd – January 19th)
The real problem here is that you’ve accepted what you would call “bad love” for so long that you honestly don’t know how to say no to it. That’s the fun of having a transit like the Moon square Mars; It lets you know that you CAN say NO and will say NO. You can’t stand this person, Capricorn, for another minute; You feel used, wasted and lied to. Is this supposed to be your romantic partner?
Oh, you’ve cursed her so many times in your head… but never in real life. You’ve never expressed your true feelings, and on November 19, 2023, something inside of you will break… and you’ll say the one word that feels like it’s been eluding you for ages: no. You’ll say a big, whopping “no” to the person who tells you they love you when you know they’re just humoring you… over and over again.
This person doesn’t love you; They only tell you to silence you, and as bold and hurtful as that sounds, you know it’s true. During Moon square Mars there is no sitting still and accepting; There is only rebellion. What your partner has offered you is mediocrity and empty words. What you will offer them in return that day is rejection. This is the day you reject the offer to fool your partner.
3. Aquarius
(January 20th – February 18th)
Moon Square Mars is a very inspiring and activity-oriented transit as everything that is happening is happening for real. You will find that you can no longer suppress the anger you feel towards your romantic partner. It is rising because of the Moon’s transit to square Mars and because you can no longer lie to yourself. The person you are in a relationship with is completely wrong for you and you need to tell him your true feelings.

Never before have you been able to say NO to them because you sold yourself the lie that “love is good enough.” This falsehood of thinking that you two would somehow come to the surface because you loved each other and everything would be sunshine and rainbows once again… simply because “love” saved the day. November 20, 2023 brings you the Moon’s square to Mars, and this transit cuts right through Taurus. Love is not enough.
You’ve seen how your partner relies on you to pay the bills, clean, do chores, etc. Everything is fine for him because he assumes that all he has to do is love you for you to be okay. So you lived like that until you realized that your love was… worthless. It’s just bad love. Words that mean nothing. To you, “I love you” are just words that someone says to reassure you and keep you calm. The Moon square Mars says, “No more.”
