Your Month Ahead

Aries (March 21 - April 20)

You begin February with a different approach to love and relationships. Venus is out of retrograde and it’s placement soothes that part of you that rushes into things and that fiery temperament. You will find yourself being more open to what others want and need than usual.

Valentine’s Day marks the beginning of a great couple of weeks for communication for you. Mercury goes out of retrograde earlier in the month and on the 14th the planet of wisdom, Pallas, enters your sign. Not only will you find yourself communicating better with those around you, but you will have the wisdom to see the truth of all things and move forward with confidence.

Love is a building theme for you month. As the days and weeks move forward the love and the passion get stronger and you bring this month to a close with a bang. Self love also brings you a lot of satisfaction at this time, as you realise your worth and love yourself unapologetically and unconditionally for all you are. You will also notice that your intuition is on fire from the 18th onwards. Trust what you feel.

Taurus (April 21 - May 21)

The beginning of February continues to take you out of your comfort zone as it forces you to speak up about what you want. You are not usually a demanding person so standing up for yourself and saying clearly what you want isn’t easy for you. Make a conscious effort to speak from the heart and speak clearly because you deserve the very best.

Mid month reminds you that those around you aren’t able to read your mind and that if you want something, say it. Time to speak up. Passions and strong emotions rise to the surface around the 17th and 18th so if you find yourself feeling overwhelmed don’t worry. Those strong emotions may lead to something wonderful and deeper connection with others.

Mercury and Uranus are a little unkind to you at the end of the month bringing conflict into your sign. It’s nothing you can’t handle Taurus. Do your best to walk away from drama. Make taking care of yourself a priority so that anxiety and paranoia don’t rear their heads. Focus on the love that surrounds you this month. You can trust it.

Gemini (May 22 - June 21)

A sense of wanting to run away from commitment might take you by surprise as February begins. This will mostly centre around your love life and your work. Don’t be too quick to walk away from what felt right before and if you have to walk away, remember to communicate and not just vanish. On the 8th of February Ceres which is associated with healing and nurturing moves into your sign. This brings you feelings of warmth and safety, and gives you the confidence to reach out to others for what you need.

From Valentine’s Day onward that detached feeling is likely to be stronger. Don’t worry if you’re not feeling your most romantic self, just be sure to remember to the feelings of others and to communicate with them.

The end of the month brings out your wild side. You are likely to be more talkative than usual. Don’t be scared to talk about what you really feel. Enjoy this fun time but if you find yourself feeling anxious be sure to take out some time to rest.

Cancer (June 22 - July 23)

As February begins it is likely that love will be on your mind and in your heart. With that said, it is time to step back and let others love you. You may find yourself sick of putting in the effort, and wanting to see who is really willing to put the effort in for you. Let others love you and take care of you. This is a time when true colours come to the surface. When it comes to Valentine’s Day, do what makes you happy!

The full Moon mid month brings the beginning of a great time for you financially. Money comes easier to you now and you may find that yourself coming up with new ideas to make or manifest money. Write them down for later.

Your career and will take priority at the end of the month. Those that love you will understand that this is where you need to direct your energy at this time, so don’t feel bad if work is your focus. This is your time to achieve so go for it!

Leo (July 24 - August 23)

This is a big month for you around love Leo. There is a catch though… February is going to force you to be the best “you” that you can be. You indulge in love with a very different attitude. Your passions that usually run deep and wild are a little subdued by planetary influences at this time. When it comes to all of your relationships you are likely to feel calmer, approaching every situation with maturity, and setting healthy boundaries in place. This whole month sees you thinking about long term plans and focusing on what is best for where you really want to go.

Mid month brings a lot of indulgence and a lot of attention. It’s a fun time for you. You may feel more flirty than usual but be careful not to waste too much energy on anything that doesn’t line up with what you really want.

Creativity really kicks in around the end of the month, and ideas may come to you randomly. Your intuition is also greatly heightened at this time. Use this combination of creativity and intuition to solve any problems easily and to feel yourself moving forward.

Virgo (August 24 - September 23)

Virgo you tend to overthink and put pressure on yourself at the best of times. The beginning of February sees you doing that a little more, especially around love and relationships. Balancing between time alone and time with others will have you feeling your best. Too much one way or the other will leave you feeling drained. Take care of yourself and trust in the process. Patience is key for you right now.

Around Valentine’s Day you take advantage of the planetary influences affecting your sign to speak up and say what you want. Instead of thinking about it or analysing it, make it known. Don’t try to avoid hurting others by hurting yourself.

The great news is that your love life gets a big boost from the 18th onward. Emotions may become overwhelming at times. Just remember that everything is fine. Allow yourself to feel whatever you need to without trying to make sense of it.

Libra (September 24 - October 23)

February begins with you facing what is fair in all your relationships and on the work front. How you treat others and how they treat you is going to be a focus for most of the month. Try to avoid power struggles, indulging in gossip, and unnecessary drama. You are likely to find yourself demanding more respect from those around you. While you are standing up for yourself, take the time to notice where you may not be treating others fairly or with respect also.

Mid month you may feel more sensitive than usual so it is okay for you to block out the world for a bit. Don’t worry if you don’t feel like answering phone calls and you don’t feel like doing anything. Rest and recharge.

The end of the month feels fantastic for you Libra. As you emerge feeling positive and energetic you can expect to get a lot of attention, especially romantically. Enjoy feeling adored. You deserve it.

Scorpio (October 24 - November 22)

Until the 16th of February you are likely to feel a little more detached than usual. Your passions may not run as high and cool logic will be your approach to just about everything. As you step out of your emotional space you may find yourself thinking more about your life and what you want from it. This is a great time for you as you come into greater understanding and awareness.

You may not feel like your usual self and those around you may point out that you are reacting differently. This isn’t a bad thing as the intentions of others become clearer to you. A lot is changing in your world Scorpio and you can look forward to decisions becoming clearer and things making more sense.

The end of the month is great for you as it focuses on accomplishment and abundance. It sees you getting the recognition that you deserve and there is likely to be financial reward whether it be a pay rise, a one off payment or bonus. You may find yourself in the spotlight. You’ve worked hard for this, so don’t shy away.

Sagittarius (November 23 - December 20)

Wherever it is in your life that you are settling for second best, that’s all about to change. The beginning of the month makes it very uncomfortable for you to stay in any situation that is no longer working or just not right for you. You will be inspired to move on in some way to what you really want. You are being supported in letting go at this time.

Come mid February you will find yourself the life of the party. This is a fun time for you. The only down side is that you might not be listening to those around you as much as you should at this time. As others open up to you and let you know their needs and intentions, don’t be so distracted by the fun that you don’t hear what they are trying to tell you.

As February draws to a close, work and creativity will be the focus. This is a very productive time for you and you can expect to achieve a lot. You are likely to feel more carefree than usual and love feels like fun even though you may not have as much time as you like to indulge in it.

Capricorn (December 21- January 20)

This entire month encourages you to rest Capricorn. You are capable of working incredibly hard although beware of burning out. If you feel tired during February, don’t push on like you normally do. Stop.

For most of the month relationships may feel a little tricky for you. You are likely to be more standoffish than usual. It’s not that you don’t feel it, just that you don’t feel like showing it. Make the effort to remind those you love how you feel about them at this time. Communication and a little bit of affection will keep your relationships heading in the right direction.

Money will be your focus as February comes to a close. You are capable of achieving what you want. Be brave and put your plans and ideas into action. It will pay off.

Aquarius (January 21 - February 19)

February begins by giving you a “get out of jail free card”. If something isn’t working for you anymore, walk away. You have made commitments that are draining you and at this time you will have the chance to change your mind. Take it.

The middle of the month feels like a completely different energy as your romantic side emerges. A big reason for this is that communication and creativity will flow easily for you. You will be more expressive and may find yourself telling others how you feel about them again and again. This is a wonderful time for you indeed.

As the month continues others will reach out to you. This is a time of “offerings”. You may receive invitations, proposals of different kinds, gifts, a lot of attention and praise. Take whatever wonderful things come to you. The end of February reminds you of how important it is to receive. You don’t always have to take the back seat. Time to ride up front.

Pisces (February 21 - March 20)

Don’t allow yourself to feel hurt or neglected as everyone around you seems busy. You may begin the month feeling that you are not a priority to those that are a priority to you. As much as it may feel this way and as much as it may hurt, it is not true. This is a very distracting time for a lot of people. You are loved Pisces so take nothing personally as February kicks off.

From the 8th onward things feel significantly better and friendship is a major focus for you from this time onward til March. There is much fun, love, and satisfaction to be gained from friendships now as those that were absent at the start of the month come a lot closer now.

Things take another turn for you from the 24th onward as your professional life gets a major boost. Expect to be very busy at this time and expect great results around money and work. Knowing how busy you are going to be at the end of the month, if there is anything pressing that needs to be done in February don’t leave it until this time.

NEW MOON IN AQUARIUS

February 1

New Moons are also known as “Dark Moons” because they are barely visible in the night sky. Most of us are familiar with New Moons being a time of new beginnings and great times to manifest the things we really want.

Less commonly, it is known that New Moons are a time to slow down and look within. They are about illuminating what is coming to an end, or more so, what needs to. For this reason, New Moons can be confronting and uncomfortable times. They force us to see what is no longer working.

Aquarius brings us a wonderful energy of freedom, rebellion, and creativity. When we couple this with the energy of the New Moon we can see why when in Aquarius, it is so powerful. The New Moon is greatly amplified when in this sign.

The New Moon in Aquarius always points to significant change and with so much Aquarius energy playing out over the first few weeks of February, you are likely to feel this energy of transformation long after the 1st of the month.

You already know what is changing and what is no longer working. Be brave as things align for you to move on and move up. The planetary influences of the last few months have already seen you on a roller coaster of questioning aspects of your life. This is where it comes to a head.

To help you make the most of this time….

  • Make a list of what you want but DON’T think about how it can come to be or whether or not it is realistic

  • Write a break up letter to a person, situation, or habit that is no longer working for you. You don’t have to give it to anybody or show anybody. It is just between you and the universe

  • Meditate on what is restricting you and ask Archangel Michael to free you of whatever is limiting you now.

POLARITIES

The twelve signs of the zodiac are divided into positive and negative signs. These are known as the two polarities. When astrologers look at a person’s birth chart they can see if there is a greater number of positive or negative signs which gives a more accurate indication of polarity.

In astrology, positive is not better than negative, or vice versa. It is not a judgement of good and bad. It is exactly like yin and yang. One polarity is more masculinise whilst the other is more feminine.

+ Positive Signs are more extroverted and upbeat. They are outwardly focused and greatly stimulated by external activity and interaction. They have a masculine quality.

Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius, Aquarius (Fire and Air Signs)

-Negative Signs are more introverted and low key. They are more focused on the interior experience. They have a feminine quality.

Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn, Pisces ( Earth and Water Signs)

If your Sun sign is negative sign yet you are quite extroverted, or if it is a positive sign yet you are quite introverted, then it is likely that there are many signs in your natal chart that are of a different polarity to your Sun sign.

MODES

Each mode is made up of four signs which is why they are known as a quadruplicity.

Cardinal signs are Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn. They represent the start of a new season and for this reason they are great at starting things. They find it easy to adapt to changing circumstances and love the thrill of a deadline or challenge.

Fixed signs are Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius. They are gifted at following things through and staying on course. They can be slow to change or stubborn but they see their commitments through.

Mutable signs are Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, and Pisces. They are fed by variety, change, and new experiences. They are adaptable, flexible, and easily distracted. They love learning, knowledge, and adventure, although they do not necessarily see things through.
