Aquarius New Moon
During the New Moon in Aquarius on the 11th, six out of the seven traditional planetary bodies are in your opposite star sign. Aquarius rules relationships in your horoscope, both personal & professional.
This pile-up of planets can play out in different ways but it’s important to note that this will be a definitive time for your one-to-ones.
You’re either giving a relationship your all. Or, perhaps you encounter an individual who’s going to play a significant role in your life moving forward. One way or another, it’s a tipping point.
Lucky Jupiter is also involved in the New Moon phase and Jupiter is a protective and benevolent influence. On the 11th, the day of the New Moon, Jupiter aligns with Venus in Aquarius, the planet of love. In fact, you have Venus in your relationship sector from the 1st to the 25th.
Plus, there’s a Mercury-Jupiter conjunction in Aquarius on the 14th, Valentines Day. If anyone is going to receive or offer a loving proposal this month, bets are on your star sign or your opposite star sign Aquarius.
Mercury Retrograde
However, it is important to note that Mercury, the planet of communication, is retrograde in Aquarius for the first three weeks of February until the 21st.
Therefore, ideally you want to wait to make a key decision about love and relationships until this date. Sometimes, Mercury brings new information to light.
This Mercury retrograde phase is ideal for reconnecting with people from your past, a lover perhaps, or a friend or colleague.
People matter to you deeply now and you may find that your own plans change depending on what happens in the lives of the people you love. It’s not a month to go it alone.
Career Goals & Clashes
This feels as if it’s an important month too with regard to your work and career, your vocation and future path. Action planet Mars gives you drive and ambition in Taurus and your future sector.
Plus, the planet of change Uranus remains in Taurus. It might be that external circumstances are the reason for a new chapter beginning. Or, perhaps an opportunity appears that’s too good to miss out on.
It’s not always going to be an easy month to navigate and this is where your interactions with other people could interfere with your plans. This is because Mars clashes with the Sun on the 1st & Mercury and Venus on the 10th & 19th respectively.
Plus, there’s a Saturn-Uranus clash on the 17th. This suggests you could find yourself at odds with other people, whether you don’t see eye-to-eye with a boss or you’re up against tough competition.
Ideally, wait until the last week of the month before leaping in or responding to an act of defiance. Mars teams up with Pluto on the 25th and this promises support from someone in a position of influence.
Or, you find the right team to work alongside. This month’s astrology is about aligning yourself with the right people and moving away from the ‘wrong’ people.
Sun Enters Pisces
There’s a definite shift in energy on the 18th when the Sun, your ruler, enters water sign Pisces. Less arguments perhaps or less stress. Pisces is an emotional, sentimental star sign, sensitive and caring.
This sector of your horoscope is about money on the one hand, also things that are hidden. You may be dealing with deep emotions while the Sun is here. Or venturing into unknown territory.
There’s a powerful Full Moon on the 27th cutting across the Virgo/Pisces axis of the horoscope. This is the financial/emotional axis in your horoscope and Full Moons often bring clarity. You see your situation clearly and you’re wise to trust your intuition in making a key decision.
