Pisces (19 February – 20 March)
Jupiter Peaks
It’s a lively month coming up and the best news for you is the fact that your ruling planet, Jupiter, turns direct on the 11th. Jupiter is the biggest and best planet in astrology and is currently in fire sign, Sagittarius.
This highlights the peak of your horoscope as Sagittarius rules your career and vocation, your status and reputation. It’s about your future path in life, where you’re heading and why.
Once Jupiter turns direct, you are likely to feel more motivated and ambitious to get ahead. Alternatively, you could find that a new opportunity comes your way which you can’t refuse. This could be linked to travel or study, publishing or the media. Certainly, if you can boost your profile and expand your career and vocation, you’re on the right lines.
To make the most of Jupiter, you’re wise to be visionary, take risks and play big. Jupiter remains in Sagittarius until early December so utilise this dynamic and forward-moving period in your life.
Jupiter’s not acting alone either, as it teams up with the Sun in Leo on the 7th, Venus, the planet of relating, on the 8th and Mercury, the planet of communication, on the 21st. Therefore, this feels like a lot of expansive energy that you can channel into your work, your mission, your career, your purpose. It’s important that you have something to aim for this month to make the most of some stunning planetary activity.
Turning Points
There are some key turning points this month and you’re wise to work with the Moon cycle. On the 1st (July 31st in America), there’s a New Moon in Leo, a symbol of new beginnings. Leo rules your work and routine, your lifestyle and health.
This is a green light to be pro-active in these areas, to launch something new and set your intentions for the month ahead. You have a lot of key planets backing you, so ensure you have a good team around you. There’s a sense that you can’t do everything on your own and you need support in different areas.
This might include outsourcing, finding a VA or PA, signing up with a coach or advisor or any other way that helps you to feel supported and get ahead. You could find you’re overstretched time-wise with too much on your plate. Deal upfront with what’s important and urgent and see how you can delegate or postpone the rest.
Be Flexible
The dates when you need to be extra flexible are the 2nd and 16th and the 12th. The first two dates, unpredictable Uranus clashes with key planets in Leo. On the third date, Uranus switches direction and turns retrograde.
Uranus often coincides with the unexpected, a diversion, a change of plan. In Taurus, Uranus lights up your communication sector, so be ready for power outages or meetings that get cancelled.
Double-check everything and don’t organise any important meetings or interviews on the dates mentioned above. Play your cards right this month and you could line up a new deal, job or promotion.
The Full Moon on the 15th is when matters come to a head. The Full Moon is often a time of completion and this Full Moon highlights the star signs, Leo and Aquarius. You see your situation with clarity during the Full Moon and it’s a good time to trust your intuition. For you, this is especially important with regard to your working life and health.
Mercury Direct
Another key turning point this month involves Mercury, the planet of communication. On the 1st (July 31st in America), Mercury turns direct in Cancer after three weeks retrograde, i.e. on go slow. Cancer rules your children, romance, creative projects, entertainment and luck.
When Mercury turns direct, you can sort out any misunderstandings and speak with confidence. Sometimes, new information comes to light that helps you make key decisions in your life. Mercury in Cancer represents connecting conversations. It remains here until the 11th and there’s less emotion and drama involved.
Relationship Vibes
Relationships pick up for you after the 18th. In fact, late August could be one of the most stunning periods of the whole year for love and relationships. This is because there’s a flood of planetary input in Virgo and your relationship sector.
Firstly, passion planet, Mars, enters Virgo on the 18th followed swiftly by Venus on the 21st. Two days later and the Sun enters Virgo followed by Mercury on the 29th. Finally, there’ s a New Moon in Virgo on the 30th. It’s all systems go with regard to love, relationships and partnership in your life.
Plus, the lovers of the heavens, Venus and Mars, unite in Virgo on the 24th. This is special because it’s the only time this year that these two planets come together. This could definitely prove to be a highlight for you when it comes to partnership.
Also, the last week of August is a good time to meet new people, start dating or be spontaneous when it comes to love. This is because Uranus is involved once again but in a positive way. Uranus teams up with Venus on the 26th, Mars on the 28th and the Sun on the 30th.
Uranus rules spontaneity so be impulsive in your communications. Talk to people you meet, line up an impromptu get-together, call someone out of the blue. Don’t be surprised if other people contact you when you were least expecting it.
The astrology promises a lively vibe for all your close connections when partnership can bring security and happiness your way. This isn’t a month to go it alone, even if your adventures and wins come about because of you.
