February 2020
Aries – (March 19 – April 18) This is a rich preparation time Aries. Your ruling planet Mars may appear to be sleeping now, but don’t let this inactivity lure you away from thinking ahead. In fact – good plans are critical now so that you’re ready to leap into action when the time comes. Don’t be surprised when a friend reaches out to confide a deep secret. You have the right point of view to help this person.
Taurus – (April 19 – May 19) The secret to success this month is make a good plan and stick to it. Mercury is retrograde after February 16th, Venus enters Aries on the 7th – and both of these celestial acts can keep you busy but not productive. Do that thing that you do best – move heaven and earth. Your work behind the scenes pays off fabulously next month if you do things right. March delivers big time, so please don’t forget it!
Gemini – (May 20 – June 19) I wish I could say that this Mercury retrograde (February 16 – March 9th) will be inconsequential, but that would not be fair. The issue is that this retrograde is in Pisces, a sign that can present challenges to you. Stay aware and avoid frustration. Life as you know it will be malleable and unpredictable. Careful planning will help though; for example, planning lots of walks by the sea and good books to read.
Cancer – (June 20 – July 21) Chances are you long for some cozy evenings and home cooked meals, but you’re being pulled every which way. This month calls for making adjustments and being uber flexible with your plans. Stubborn resistance is futile, so focus on going with the flow. The good new is: you can pick and choose what or whom you respond to. Do not allow chaos to dictate your day – it’s an illusion. Stay grounded, and be happy.
Leo – (July 22 – August 21) Granted, the Leo full moon of February 9th has your name on it (in bright, shining Light). But this full moon catches both Pluto and Neptune in an awkward phase; one that asks you to make adjustments. Perhaps you get what you wanted, but now see that it’s not really the answer. February is a special month; it’s the time when you can see most clearly. Patience is your greatest ally now.
Virgo – (August 22 – September 21) Mercury is your friend, (and planetary ruler). So, you need to pay attention to Mercury retrograde from February 16th – March 9th - especially now. This retrograde cycle is mostly in Pisces, which is good for you. It might be fun to make a list of how many people from you past show up during this time. February is a clean up month for you, Virgo; deep cleaning. Release with Love and Light.
Libra – (September 22 – October 21) This is a really good time to get re-acquainted with your innermost self. You have great clarity, and even if you are not happy with what the past months have revealed, the way forward is looking bright. Venus square Jupiter on the new moon of February 23rd is actually going to energize your plans. Take time for reflection and renewal, and let the Pisces new moon heal your body, mind, and soul.
Scorpio – (October 22 – November 20) February is a subtle turning point month for you, Scorpio. You may not even realize how deep and/or important this time is. February is deceptively short – but you can get SO much accomplished. Stay focused and accept that discipline is your great ally. Break large tasks down into palatable bites and you will be sitting at a feast come March. I promise!
Sagittarius – (November 21– December 20) Slow and steady still wins the day, but there will be lucrative opportunities coming you way all year. With both Saturn and Jupiter in your money sector, controlled growth is your guiding star. Not everybody recognizes that you are such a planner. You are known for your abundance of energy, but people don’t understand that you get tired from time to time, too.
Capricorn – (December 21 – January 19) Wow, Capricorn, just wow! Not only are Pluto, Saturn and Jupiter dining at your table, but Pallas Athena joins the south node for February’s full moon on the 9th. This is about your wisdom and it fills the deep well of all that you have to give now. Allow yourself to be a channel for the Light of god – this is the full dignity of what is happening for you. Nothing less is worthy, and nothing more is needed.
Aquarius – (January 20 – February 17) Saturn is making moves on you in multiple ways, and they’re messing with your flow, Aquarius. First, Saturn is in your solar 12th house – an act that makes you feel unrecognized and patently unappreciated. And now, Saturn is crushing on Uranus to form a challenging square. Ouch!! This is true pressure so stand up tall. I know that you will come out like a diamond.
Pisces – (February 18 – March 18) You have a peculiar challenge this month, Pisces. Lilith, aka ‘the Dark Goddess’ is joined with both Neptune and Mercury in your sign for the full moon of February 9th. Lilith has been memorialized through history for whispering into the ears of unsuspecting humans. Lilith might enable you to believe something you know is not real. But Lilith is also a friend, and she will tell you the truth if and when you ask her.
