February 1: February begins with a dynamic celestial exclamation point. The Full Snow Moon in Leo reigns supreme. The swollen Moon inflames passions. Lions roar. Enthusiasm is irrepressible. Ardent feelings manifest in relationships with partners, colleagues, strangers and social commentary. Lunar oppositions to Pluto, Mars, the Sun and Venus intensify concentration and focus. Powers of deduction are sharp. The same stars can see the authority of leaders questioned and undermined, while other bosses assume a more strident tone. Selfish motives are plain to see. Those who serve the best interests of others grow in stature and command respect. Evening ushers in a mellower, post Full Moon mood. Exhale, release stress and turn your attention to sharing enjoyments tonight.

February 2: The early morning hours are likely to bring thoughts of the future. With the Moon moving deeper into Leo many folks are making plans. This first part of the day can see headway made with projects that will not see the light of day for weeks, months or even years. The Moon’s oppositions to Venus and Mercury enliven friendships as well as occasionally prognosticating groundhogs. Forecasting is fun. By midday, uncertainties increase. Restlessness, second thoughts and indecision may slow or derail a project. Technical difficulties can also present challenges. Patience is advised. Be prepared to take a break. The early evening transportation scene can see delays and detours. Mellower trends take hold after sundown.
Moon in Leo v/c 5:55PM-10:21PM Moon enters Virgo.
February 3: Because the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars and Pluto are all now in forward-looking Aquarius, thoughts of what is to come can be frequent and at times absorbing. Friends, and the good of all are also compelling interests. Adding urgency to speculation, visionary Uranus resumes forward motion tonight. The maverick planet, Uranus is also associated with surprises, emergencies, Fate and forces beyond any one person’s control. These situations are often humbling, and contribute to Uranus’ standing as the “Great Awakener.” While today’s hours pass, unstable situations and uncertainties can add to anxieties. At the same time, the waning Virgo Moon directs attention towards healthy, mindful living. Put herbal teas and relaxation techniques to good use. Warm, friendly ties also do much to calm minds and senses. A compliment or kindness is another form of healing.

February 4: The Virgo Moon aligns with jolly Jupiter during the early hours before dawn. Dreams may be comforting, inspirational or provide valuable guidance. Group activities are favored as a strong Aquarian planetary influence continues to hold sway. Different points of view may be difficult to reconcile, although majority rule is generally respected. The Virgo Moon fuels a constant push to do better, leading many folks to strive for self-improvement. This is a fine day to learn a new skill or improve an existing one. Tonight’s brilliant lunar trine to Uranus unites people of many persuasions. It also supports spontaneity, inventive ingenuity, and irreverence as well as sly humor. Expect meetings to be lively, eye-opening, and equally entertaining. A premonition is likely to be on the money.

February 5: Worries and confusion can raise early morning stress levels. Practice mindful awareness as mental Mercury tests unpredictable Uranus. If you are facing uncertainties, do your best to withhold judgment, and be patient. The commute could feature delays so plan accordingly. Computers and other tech gear are also more likely to malfunction. In a pinch, a short series of connected breaths quickly releases tension. By late morning life feels more under control. The waning Libra Moon occupies a favorable trine angle with Pluto. Resilience and courage reinvigorate frazzled minds. The resourcefulness of a colleague can be inspiring. The second half of the day is a good time for networking. Devise plans for the weekend or an upcoming adventure.
Moon in Virgo v/c 2:49AM-4:33AM Moon enters Libra, Mercury square Uranus.
February 6: Thoughts can be reflective as Mercury prepares to exit Aquarius. If someone dear comes to mind, shoot them a message. Don’t be surprised to hear from a long lost pal. Although spirited, the morning hours tend to feel a bit scattered. The Libra Moon tests optimistic Jupiter at midday, causing some folks to harbor unrealistic expectations. Others are easily distracted. Be careful not to take on more than can be comfortably handled. Too many irons in the fire reduces efficiency and quality. Nonetheless, the morning and early afternoon are the most productive parts of the day. Moods remain upbeat tonight, a good one for relaxed socializing, recreational activities and romancing.
Moon in Libra, Mercury enters Pisces.
February 7: The early morning hours shine brightly under the Libra Moon’s trine with Venus. Delight comes easily. It feels wonderful to be alive. The day soon settles into a low key rhythm as the Moon orbits void of course for several hours. The period from mid-morning until early afternoon is well-suited for doing weekend chores and other routine tasks. By mid-afternoon energy levels begin to pick up. The waning Moon is in Scorpio. Lunar harmony with Mercury can lead to truth telling sessions and other disclosures. What is said can take courage. Many souls are struggling to deal with life’s uncertainties. Listen carefully, and remain steadfastly kind. If you cannot be supportive, or contribute something positive, keep your thoughts to yourself.
Moon in Libra v/c 6:59AM-2:13PM Moon enters Scorpio.
February 8: Venus’ overnight jousting match with Uranus can trigger fight or flight responses. In addition to testing friendships it may also disrupt sound sleep and shake financial markets. Come morning there is little rest for the weary. The waning Scorpio Moon is at odds with fiery Mars for much of the day. Frayed nerves and temperamental outbursts are likely. The best approach is to get clear about priorities, goals and ambitions, then use your energy calmly and methodically. Evening brings more serene, light-hearted skies. A lunar trine to Jupiter repairs and replenishes weary spirits. Nighttime conversations encourage, beguile and entertain. Educational experiences nourish the soul.

February 9: This may not be a classic blue Monday, but it will have its challenges. The early morning features the Last Quarter Moon, a stress test between the Aquarius Sun and waning Scorpio Moon. Getting out of the door on time can be daunting. Keeping one’s composure is also likely to be taxing, especially if an unexpected delay or obstacle complicates matters. Stay cool and keep your eyes on the road if you are driving. One advantage of a Quarter Moon is its motivational impact. Direct attention to working cooperatively with friends and colleagues. Share your thoughts and feelings rather than letting them stew. Tonight’s lunar opposition to Uranus requires vigilant awareness of one’s self as well as partners. A breakthrough understanding is a possibility.

February 10: Moods lift, hearts soften and movement is in the stars today. An overnight lunar square to Venus underscores the need to look after one’s own physical and emotional needs. During the wee hours of the morning the Moon enters easygoing Sagittarius. Another lunar aspect to Neptune offers a possible glimpse into the unformed future. Pay attention to your dreams. As dawn nears Venus arrives in tender Pisces. The start of the winter eclipse season is only one week away. Things begun the week before an eclipse seldom go precisely as planned. Fortunately, the Moon forms a helpful late morning sextile to clever Pluto. Trust first impressions and instinctive hunches. Communications can be tricky after noon. Do whatever it takes to assure everyone is on the same page. The evening hours bring mellower moods.

February 11: Morning energy levels are enhanced by an enjoyable lunar sextile to Mars. The hastening aspect facilitates lively discussions, debates and meetings, as well as enthusiasm and friendly competition. Upbeat atmospherics remain in play throughout the day and long into the night. The naturally buoyant Sagittarius Moon is also favorably aligned with the Aquarius Sun. Surprising but welcome political developments at the office or on the world stage are also likely.The next few days may provide opportunities to lay certain ghosts to rest. Saturn, the Lord of Karma, is nearing the end of its stay in mysterious, imaginative Pisces. Practice forgiveness, make amends if possible, or repay a debt. Closure can be marvelously liberating.
Moon in Sagittarius.
February 12: The Sagittarius Moon’s early afternoon square with dour Saturn dominates the first half of the day. The burden of debts, obligations and responsibilities can weigh heavily. Shift to low gear and gamely carry on with business and other tasks. Be methodical. Conserve energy, but do the right things. The Moon’s early afternoon arrival in practical Capricorn could produce a momentary confusion. If you feel mystified, take a few minutes to get your bearings. Moods begin to improve by late afternoon. A strengthening lunar engagement with Venus boosts morale. Conferences and meetings become more lighthearted and fruitful. Successful outcomes are more likely. Tonight’s social vibe is excellent. An early Valentine’s celebration could be in order.
Moon in Sagittarius v/c 2:29PM-2:44PM Moon enters Capricorn.
February 13: Our waning Moon is in gritty Capricorn. Slow, steady progress is facilitated through much of the workday. Some souls are content to proceed on faith alone this morning. Logical minds dominate the midday hours. A lunar sextile to mental Mercury encourages realistic assessments and sound decision making. Sober Saturn exits Pisces and enters Aries this evening. The sign change could spark a review of priorities and tactics. Revisiting a matter lingering since last summer is another possibility. Don’t be afraid to use your imagination. The Ringed Planet represents wisdom and experience, but is now moving into a conjunction with visionary Neptune. A rare opportunity to envision and create new realities is upon us. Tonight’s lunar opposition to Jupiter amplifies the magnitude of possibilities. It also encourages frivolity and fun.

February 14: Heart stopping sentiments grace this day dedicated to matters of affection. Venus is in ultra sensitive Pisces. It will not take much to trigger memories of past loves or outpourings of affection. The Capricorn Moon could spur a flurry of old fashioned Valentine’s Day card giving. Of course with the Moon in a trine to technologically advanced Uranus, many folks can expect to receive greetings on their phones and computers. Get-togethers are also encouraged by the evening Moon/Uranus alignment. Psychic powers may also be enhanced. Those folks who choose to go out are eager to explore new tastes and places. The late night hours bring a shift to slower, more relaxed going as the Moon begins to travel void of course.
Moon in Capricorn v/c 8:31PM-12:00AM.
February 15: Night owls are treated to the Aquarius Moon’s trines with Saturn and Neptune. Midnight movies and other entertainments are likely to inspire imaginations. The resolve to act on these inspirations is solidified by the Moon’s morning conjunction with Pluto. Great achievements will no doubt require support from a community of friends and allies. This is a fine day for networking but bear in mind two key factors. The Aquarius Sun is nearly square Uranus, a classic omen of unexpected events. Impatience and rebelliousness can go hand in hand. The other critical component is the New Moon/Solar Eclipse is now only two days away. The Cosmos doubtless has surprises in store. Stay humble and be ready to adapt and adjust plans as necessary.
Moon in Capricorn v/c 12:00AM-1:17AM Moon enters Aquarius.
February 16: Overnight sleeplessness can be due to the Sun’s testing angle with Uranus. The alignment is a nail biter. Stresses are often tied to massive, uncontrollable factors, created by higher powers or humankind. Inclement weather, accidents or the misuse of authority are common examples. Individuals can thus be facing daunting challenges. Current chaos could also instill a drive to change the world but do not attempt to rectify every wrong or solve every problem just yet. This is the final day of the lunar cycle. To act now is premature, and plans are likely to fall short of the mark. Fortunately, this is a great day for thinking, planning and lining up support. Mercury is in a mood elevating aspect with Jupiter. Imagine a best case scenario and proceed accordingly.

February 17: This morning’s Aquarius New Moon is also a Solar Eclipse. The conjoined Sun and Moon are at odds with volatile Uranus. The winter eclipse season has only just begun. Circumstances are likely to change in the blink of an eye, now and during the coming weeks. Kings, Prime Ministers and Presidents may fall unexpectedly. Brash, over-confident egos are the most likely to be humbled. For many people, even a completely unanticipated change will prove to be for the better, in time. Considering the seminal nature of the New Moon with its Aquarian themes of friendship, freedom, equality, and envisioning a better future, efforts that benefit the public are favored. It is wise to carry on with humility, loving kindness and caution.

February 18: During the late morning Sol splashes down in Pisces, the moody, magical, mystical SIgn of the Fishes. This final sign of the Zodiac heralds an end to winter. In the coming weeks look for Mother Nature’s subtle but inevitable signs of the emerging spring. The waxing crescent Pisces Moon oversees a lively social atmosphere. Daytime meetings are stimulating, a valuable source of intellectual and/or spiritual inspiration. Power lunches and other meetups are lively. Moods are obviously upbeat. Hopes and ambitions can be sky high. Travel, whether in the planning stages or already in progress, is facilitated. Communications tend to be clearheaded and well received. Dinnertime talks bring knowing smiles and empowering “aha” moments of recognition.

February 19: A wondrous, inventive spirit permeates the morning hours. Get infatuated with life. Follow your inspiration. Let your maverick spirit express itself. A sudden interest can turn into a remarkable adventure. After several quiet midday hours the Moon’s early afternoon entry into Aries brings awareness of a new set of pressing needs. The Moon is moving into conjunctions with practical Saturn and creative Neptune. Working towards a dream or goal consumes most of the afternoon. Be dedicated to your objective. Progress may be slow but it is progress. Take periodic rests to appraise situations, and make adjustments as requirements become clear. Teamwork is likely to be a vital component of today’s successes.
Moon in Pisces v/c 10:23AM-2:39PM Moon enters Aries.
February 20: Today’s rare conjunction of Saturn and Neptune at the first degree of the Zodiac, 0 Aries. This incipient degree symbolizes the soul’s descent into matter, birth and the beginning of all endeavors. The planetary pairing underscores the steps needed to make any emerging dream come true. Timing, clear objectives, patience and persistence are all essential ingredients. Efforts require total immersion and dedication, as well as a consuming passion. Selflessness is one manifestation of Neptune, idealism is another. A leap of faith could be in the making. Service to another person, a group of people or an ideal, is supported. The waxing Aries Moon supports these unselfish endeavors. Sharing the work with like-minded people keeps spirits and hopes afloat. Emerging new leaders as well as old souls rise to the occasion.

February 21: The Aries Moon’s early morning sextile to Mars sets roosters and other bold souls to crowing heartily. Morning walks and workouts are brisk. However, the Moon is soon void of course and remains that way until evening.. Energy levels and enthusiasm diminish. An opportunity to unwind, unplug and just be true to one’s self dominates the daylight hours. Take the pathway of your own meandering spirit. Shortly after sunset the Moon enters earthy Taurus, shifting the mood to a quest for pleasure, comfort and contentment. The search is likely to be successful. Harmony between the waxing Moon and Pisces Sun ushers in a satisfying sense of ease. All in all, this is a great day to practice going with the flow.

February 22: Hearts are merry and minds are optimistic from morning until night. Loving Venus’ afternoon trine with Jupiter promotes all manner of enjoyments. You may want to count your calories. Overdoing will be very easy. Gadding around town or taking a Sunday drive can be great fun. Museum shows, lectures and educational experiences feel rewarding. Generous impulses are also supported by the waxing Taurus Moon. Her evening sextiles to both Jupiter and Venus are splendid omens for down to earth, fun times. Simple or fancy, this is an ideal day for doing things you love. Along the way take time to count your blessings.

February 23: Shaking off weekend cobwebs is made easier by an early morning lunar sextile with Mercury. Minds and senses are sharp. Instincts and hunches ring true. As noon approaches, irritations can increase. Be patient with unexpected delays and complications. Seeing what needs to happen or sensing what is about to occur is only part of a larger equation. Life unfolds according to its own unknown measure as the Taurus Moon unites with unorthodox Uranus. Their evening conjunction can wreak havoc with airplane schedules, automobile traffic, computers, phones and other gadgets. Drive defensively. Be patient. The hours after dark are deliciously delightful, offering well-earned pleasures.
Moon in Taurus v/c 5:29PM-9:29PM Moon enters Gemini.
February 24: The early morning First Quarter Moon in Gemini can be a powerfully motivating force. The potential quandary it presents requires sorting through an outbreak of confusing thoughts and feelings. The tidal wave of emotions will likely leave many questions unanswered. I suggest going back to basics. Follow your life force, the illuminating energy and excitement that is felt when an activity, person or place is irresistible. By mid morning the testing hours are finished. Stresses subside. However, sensitive folks may be feeling edgy due to upcoming celestial developments. Imminent events suggest it is best to suspend judgment on certain issues. Appreciate today’s comparatively mellow atmospherics. Focus on activities that make you feel good.

February 25: It feels as though there’s a lot going on today. The Gemini Moon’s late morning tussle with Mercury could present logistical problems. Mental clarity can also be a challenge. Skilled multi-taskers may struggle to keep up with all the frying pans on the fire. Those who thrive on action may rise to the occasion but not without some stress. Productivity and efficiency improve after the midday lunch break. A lunar trine to Mars bolsters ambitions and energy levels. The enlivening effect is notable. Camaraderie and teamwork are also stimulated. Tonight’s vibe is much quieter. A void of course Moon offers space for mental and physical relaxation. Take advantage, and chill out.
Moon in Gemini v/c 6:00PM-12:00AM.
February 26: Mercury’s post-midnight turn to retrograde motion may precipitate changes of mind. Some souls wake up feeling disoriented, yet trying to make sense of life. With Mercury close to Venus, love and beauty have much to offer. A trusted confidante can be a godsend when it comes to seeing things clearly. Art, flowers, a favorite song or piece of music could also be good medicine. The waxing Cancer Moon also works to restore confidence and clarity. Her early afternoon trine with the Pisces Sun injects a welcome sense of inner balance. Optimism as well as maternal instincts increase as the hours pass. However, a pending confrontation between Mars and Uranus requires respect. The combination can be dangerous. Minimize risks by slowing down and staying humble. Be extra attentive while on the move and avoid obvious hotspots.

February 27: Today’s Mars/Uranus square raises red flags. The God of War testing the planet of unexpected events can set off temperamental types. Nervous energy can trigger outbursts. Cars, as well as other types of machinery and sharp edged tools must be used with extra care. Computers and other tech gadgetry can be balky. Proceed cautiously in all you do, especially during the morning. Luckily, from the noon hour on, the caring Cancer Moon provides convenient, relaxing alternatives. Lunar aspects to Venus, Mercury and Uranus sustain emotional warmth. Tonight’s social atmosphere is stellar. Progressive thinking is encouraged, while happy reunions are also likely.
Moon in Cancer v/c 11:21PM-12:00AM, Mars square Uranus.
February 28: The overnight period is busy. Retrograde Mercury’s post-midnight conjunction with Venus could stir up pleasant memories. Messages may arrive from longtime acquaintances, some of whom have not been seen or heard from in years. During the wee hours of early morning the waxing Moon enters regal Leo. Dreams can provide valuable information or spiritual direction under lunar trines to Neptune and Saturn. Spines stiffen as daylight breaks. The Moon is nearing an opposition with Pluto. Some folks feel empowered but others may become obstinate. Play fair. Refrain from saying or doing anything that could someday be regrettable. Try for a compromise, ideally one where all parties are satisfied.
