Earth Sign Energy
Earth sign energy remains strong this month thanks to action planet Mars in earth sign Taurus. Taurus rules your creativity sector in your horoscope, all the things in life you love and give birth to.
This includes romance, children & pregnancy, self-expression, your skills and talents. With Mars here, you may find that you have more of an appetite for pleasure and enjoyment.
On the 25th, Mars aligns with Pluto, the last planet standing in your star sign Capricorn. Pluto’s influence is intense. Yes, it’s the planet of transformation but it symbolises power and control too. Be wary of power games when Mars and Pluto come together.
You could be up against someone who’s an invincible force. Or, perhaps you’re the one who needs to stand your ground and act decisively.
Aquarius New Moon
The major planetary focus this month is on the star sign Aquarius, During the New Moon in Aquarius on the 11th, six of the seven planetary bodies are in this air sign and one specific sector of your horoscope.
Aquarius rules money in your horoscope, your assets & possessions, your values & self-worth. Plus, during the New Moon phase, the planet of abundance and good fortune, Jupiter, is active. Jupiter expands what it touches and connects with Venus on the 11th & Mercury on the 14th.
These combinations are giving and generous, potentially wealthy for some of you. However, if your financial situation isn’t great, then Jupiter could expand your debt, for example. If so, reach out for help & support.
Mercury Retrograde
Also, even though a New Moon is a symbol of new beginnings, mid-February isn’t the time to invest or make major financial decisions. This is because communication planet Mercury is retrograde for the first three weeks of February. And, Mercury is also in Aquarius.
Therefore, you’re wise to plot and plan but bide your time for major investments or financial moves until after the 21st when Mercury turns direct. Use the Mercury retrograde phase to do your research and consider all your options.
Money could be the cause of arguments this month, perhaps with a lover or child. This is because of clashes between Mars and planets in Aquarius on the 1st, 10th & 19th.
Plus, the Saturn-Uranus clash on the 17th is also about money and values, what you hold dear. This might simply flag up what you can and can’t afford. When you have Saturn in Aquarius, your ruling planet, you’re going to take a sensible approach to cash matters.
Alternatively, there may be a deeper reason why money triggers strong emotions. You could have your own strong opinions about the economy and what’s right and wrong in these unique times.
Pisces’ Time
The Pisces’ influence brings a new flavour to the end of the month. The Sun enters Pisces on the 18th followed by the planet of relating Venus on the 25th.
Pisces is an emotional water sign and in your communication sector, this is about making genuine connections with other people. Expand your reach and do what feels right. Pisces rules siblings and neighbours, also your local community.
During the Full Moon in Virgo on the 27th, the theme of reconnection remains strong. Follow up on conversations or chase up past connections. Read more, watch movies and feed your imagination.
This is a creative phase for you when you need dreams to believe in and people in your life who stir your soulful nature.
