February Horoscopes
February’s astrology is all about the heart.
Early February starts with Venus conjunct Neptune and the North Node in Pisces. The planet of harmony helps us talk through differences and restore a sense of psychic equilibrium. We can more easily resist negativity or any distractions occupying our mental space. On February 4, Venus enters Aries and Jupiter stations direct, gracing us with the capacity to pursue our desires, even if delays may occur as Jupiter gains speed.
As Hygeia enters Taurus on February 9, it invites us into embodiment practices to connect body, mind, and spirit. This ingress happens days before the Full Moon on the fourteenth at 24˚06’ Leo. This lunation features a Sun-Ceres conjunction that brings up questions of how we’re caring for ourselves and others. Are we open to receiving love in the form of nurturance? Environmental, communal, or social concerns could weigh more heavily as the Aquarius stellium forces us to look beyond ourselves and adopt a whole-systems approach to relationships.
Romantic relationships are being reimagined during this transit. With Venus in her pre-shadow phase in self-directed Aries and Mars retrograde in Cancer, we may lose sight of our identity and role in our partnership. Prioritize clear communication and create spaciousness in your schedule to accommodate unexpected journeys. It could be an adventurous time for you!
The Sun enters Pisces on February 18, turning our attention to intuition, dreams, and wonder. It’s a season of compassion when we can restore harmony in challenging relationships. The Sun is a square aspect with Sedna, challenging us to confront issues around personal power, environmental responsibility, and ancestral wisdom. We may need a reminder that our life challenges can turn out to be blessings in disguise.
On February 19, Juno enters Sagittarius for the first time since 2020, showing us what power dynamics need to be reimagined in our most intimate relationships. At the end of 2020 when Juno was last in the sign of the Archer, couples were brainstorming ways to create more space to individuate in their homes after a year of Covid protocols and social distancing. The need for freedom was exacerbated by the uncertainty of that time.
We find ourselves in a similar space with this ingress happening as Mars stations direct (February 23) and Venus moves through her pre-shadow phase before going retrograde on March 1.
The New Moon on February 27 at 09˚12’ Pisces reminds us to bridge the invisible and visible realms. With Ceres, Saturn, Mercury, the North Node, and Neptune joining the Sun and Moon in Pisces, we are attuned to spiritual guidance and can receive it for a brief few days before Venus stations retrograde. The last few days of February offer the promise of a reward for dedicated effort. Things are moving fast, leaving you to catch your breath and keep up with the pace of your dreams.
