February 2019 starts out with a tension building square between warrior planet Mars in Aries and iron-handed Pluto in Capricorn. Expect a few days of showdowns and clashes, as people test their boundaries with their opponents. Channel frustration that arises into problem solving activities if possible.
Uranus, the planet of change and revolution, is at the last degree of Aries, getting ready to head into a 7-year stint in Taurus starting next month. The 29th degree of each zodiac sign is called the “critical degree,” and is full of urgency and expectation. Think about what you would like to free yourself from as we all head for a new 7-year cycle. Venus-ruled Taurus is related to both love and money, so you are being granted new opportunities in both departments, if you are open to change.
There’s a New Moon on February 4, 2019 at 15 degrees Aquarius. Each New Moon is a chance to renew our energy, gather our resources, and begin afresh. Think of it as a time to tune in to your inner compass to make sure you are “on course” for the weeks to come. Aquarius relates to group activities, friendships, networking, and social interaction. The Sun and Moon in Aquarius will line up with messenger planet Mercury, enhancing and facilitating all important forms of communication. If you want to open up to new relationships, both business and personal, this New Moon has your back! The Aquarius planets line up nicely with abundant Jupiter in Sagittarius, suggesting that the right interactions could lead to many win/win situations. If you are creating affirmations or setting intentions for this Moon, you may want to include to idea of positive associations with helpful people.
The Year of the Earth Pig arrives with Chinese Lunar New Year falling on February 5, 2019. Pig Years are considered prosperous and productive, as well as socially enjoyable. This interfaces nicely with lucky Jupiter in Sagittarius during most of this year. So, make the best of the potential good fortune and put positive energy towards financial matters. And don’t forget to have a good time! Just remember the big picture this year is still greatly influenced by Saturn and Pluto in Capricorn, which demands practicality. Don’t be lulled into a false sense of security. This year will still require lots preparation and effort if you want to move ahead. Capricorn favors a level-headed, logical, and determined approach. Add these principles to the bountiful possibilities of the Year of the Pig and you’ll be in good shape. Earth Pigs born in 1957 will have an important year.
The Sun goes into Water Sign Pisces on February 18, 2019, heightening our sensitivity, intuition, and compassion. It’s dreamy, romantic, and artsy; an enhancement for all creative endeavors. The watery Pisces Sun blends well with other planets in Earth Signs this month. The Pisces time of year is always a favorable for activities related to spirituality, and healing.
There’s a Full Moon at 0 degrees Virgo on February 19, 2019. Full Moons bring the energies of the preceding weeks to a high point, which can give us great insight and perspective. The Sun in Pisces can shed light on our feelings and intuitions. The Virgo Moon can lead us to realizations about our physical health, our work, and our sense of purpose. Both Pisces and Virgo have a direct link to healing and purification, so affirmations and intentions to amplify that flow will be particularly potent. The Pisces/Virgo polarity is also good for bringing our ideals into alignment with our earthly duties and service to others.
Opportunity Days: February 4, 7, 14, 17, 18, 19, and 27
