Overview for this Month: Aries (All)
February 2021 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Aries:
There is a pile-up of planets in your solar eleventh house this month, dear Aries, spotlighting your aspirations, social life, sense of the future, and inventiveness. Your ideals and long-term happiness goals are a huge focus now. Not everything runs perfectly in these areas, particularly if you're feeling a pinch with money, talents, or resources, but there are also plenty of opportunities to make meaningful changes.
The last week of February brings a greater need and desire for time to yourself for personal renewal and recuperation, and this will continue into March. Because the first few weeks of February may have been hectic, this can come as a welcome relief. The last few days of the month require attention to work goals with a Full Moon in your sector of work and health.
Still, February is strong for reconsidering, reorganizing, reconnecting, and generally pouring special attention into your social life or feeling of connectedness, in general. You're making room for connections, relationships, and projects that empower and excite you. The benefits of a reset are great, even if they’re not immediately apparent, and the New Moon on the 11th helps pull everything together.
Mercury is retrograde until the 20th, and although you're full of ideas and feeling inspired, there can be some backtracking or waiting to do before you can truly move ahead with plans. There can be notable conversations or good "thinks" in February, mainly about past matters, resolving problems, and forgiveness. There are treasures to be found in old projects, studies, and interests. You might revisit past friendships.
Rethinking some details of recently-made plans can work to your benefit in the long run. Watch for missing information or fuzzy thinking. It's best to be more alert than usual with dealings with friends, associates, and groups, as well as business income. You're gathering valuable information this month, and it's a great time for processing and rediscovering old interests or plans.
From the 1-25, you seek people and situations that make you feel at ease about expressing who you are. You more readily attract friends and those who share common interests. Considering Mercury is retrograde in your social sector until the 20th, Venus in the same area of your solar chart to the 25th can help iron out differences and smooth things out.
It's satisfying to accomplish something tangible and measurable this month as Mars moves through your solar second house. Strong connections between your money and career sectors can produce nice opportunities to prioritize and make what you deserve. You seem to gravitate to those ventures and activities that serve you best. You see the importance of strategy and patience with your practical affairs this month.
Still, Mars clashes with bodies in your social sector at various times in February. Aim to tame impulses to overdo, overspend, or push since there's a small possibility that impatience could lead to damage, loss, or disadvantage. Conflicts with others over money or values and matters of respect are possible. It's best to recognize when/if ego issues are taking over and unnecessarily straining relationships. You may think that filling a sudden desire will be the answer to all your problems, but it's more likely a mere distraction. As excited as you are about new happiness goals, it's better not to jump into something too soon. If you keep your expectations in check, you may be able to roll with the competitive energy and allow it to fuel your motivation to up your game. For best results, identify your priorities and recognize that you can't do everything at once.
On the 11th, Venus and Jupiter align, and a New Moon occurs in your solar eleventh house. A new friendship, group connection, love interest through networking, or friendship goals can be in the works. Connections formed now can be enriching and beneficial. This can be a time of social refreshment and for detoxing from pressured situations and goals. You're feeding your soul and reminding yourself that happiness counts!
You’re in an excellent position to come up with non-traditional ideas that motivate and inspire you this month. You might seriously consider a significant purchase or valuable changes made to your spending or saving habits.
A Saturn-Uranus square first forming this month affects the year ahead, and some tensions emerge related to shifting money sources or a changing attitude toward personal possessions. There can be conflicts with friends about fundamental values. Friendships that survive any ups and downs this year tend to be mature and worthy.
There can be times when you're anxious to expand and grow, but worries about resources or funding can undermine you. You might wrestle with wanting to take risks, but a simultaneous fear of change can hold you back. You may need to watch for borrowing from your future–drawing upon savings meant for other goals, for example–for the time being, which can cause some stress in 2021 as Uranus in your money sector goes to battle with Saturn in your social sector--it all begins this month.
The Sun moves into your solar twelfth house on the 18th, and Venus does the same on the 25th. February becomes increasingly more about emotional renewal, tying up loose ends, and laying low. Although you remain in good shape for friendly relations, you also need to carve out some time to yourself. Mercury's direct turn on the 20th can help un-block information that's kept you in limbo.
The last week of the month is solid for special insight into what will truly work for you, and what won't. If you need to get rid of excess, waste, bad habits, clutter, and other things that may be holding you back from success, you feel far more equipped to do so. You might uncover a resource that truly works for you, particularly on financial, business, and career levels. There can be opportunities to make valuable, meaningful, and useful connections. Improving your communications and approachability is part of this–getting on top of your quickness to respond to others and willingness to reach out can be especially important.
The Full Moon on the 27th prompts an awareness of the need to manage your daily affairs with more punctuality or determination. You might see a flaw in a plan that sets you on the road to improvement, or events occurring now remind you of the need to manage your time more effectively. There can be a turning point or revelation about your work, health, or desire to be productive and useful. With an increased need for renewal and relaxation, you must prioritize finding a better balance between work and rest.

Aries (Born March 21 to 31)
AND Aries Ascendant from 0 to 10 degrees Aries:
February 2021 Aries Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
February 2021
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until February 17th:
The Sun continues to put a spotlight on your solar eleventh house. During this cycle, you are planting seeds for the future, dreaming up plans that you might begin to develop two months down the road, if they still seem viable then. You are more aware of the benefits of networking, and you might find some great ideas through others now. You might be working in a team now.
You could be questioning some of the rules you have been living by and you could be ready to try something totally new. You are more attracted to that which is progressive or unconventional during this cycle.
From February 18th forward:
The Sun travels through your twelfth house now, marking a time of retreat and regeneration. Think about the attachments you have--to things, people, and routines--and consider which ones are dragging you down. This is a time when competitive energies and the ego are on a bit of a break.
It's not the time to push ahead with brand new projects. Rather, it's a time of reflection, dreaming, and recharging your batteries. Situations that have naturally outgrown their usefulness in your life can now be put behind you. Endings of natural cycles may be part of the picture at this time of year. Your energy is largely applied to personal and private affairs now. Your disposition is introspective. Rest and reflect, and prepare for a more outgoing cycle when the Sun moves into your first house.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
From February 1-24:
Venus graces your solar eleventh house now. Forming harmonious, warm social friendships, possibly related to group activities within a club, can figure now. You may meet someone through such group activities; consequently, your interests will be shared. Whether or not you do, the bottom line is that sharing interests with someone is what makes you happy during this cycle. Venus here enlivens your friendships and group associations with charm and grace. You are more peace-loving than usual and slightly detached on a personal level. If a romance were to begin during this time frame, it would be characterized by a strong feeling of camaraderie, but it could also be rather impersonal and perhaps lacking in depth and intimacy.
From February 25th forward:
Venus is spending some time in "hibernation" in your privacy sector. Now, this doesn't necessarily mean that your love life is stagnant, but that your affection is expressed behind closed doors. Attraction to secrets and whispers characterize this period, although for some, it can also be a time of endings, relationship concerns, and wistfulness. Personal and social contacts may be secretive, and there can be secret love affairs, or at least very private love feelings and longings. Shyness can lead to some loneliness or romantic frustration. However, this can also be a deliciously private and intimate time.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Mercury is retrograde from January 30th to February 20th:
All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of communications in general and job or health-related communications because Mercury rules these areas of your life. There can be delays or rethinking with these matters.
Occurring in your solar eleventh house this time, extra care should be used when communicating with friends. You may find that communications with friends or with groups can easily become sticky during this cycle. Group meetings may be postponed or cancelled, and friends may be uncommunicative or giving off mixed signals. On the other hand, old acquaintances may appear during this cycle, or you could be thinking about contacting an old friend. This may be a good time to do so. It would be wise to be especially clear when it comes to communicating with friends and associates during this cycle; or, better yet, take this time to rethink concerns and grievances before talking about them prematurely.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
All month:
Mars continues to energize your solar second house. You tend to put more effort into making money or making your life more comfortable and secure during this cycle. Your strong desire to be financially independent could lead to positive things, such as paying off debts or increased enterprise. The opposite side of the coin is asserting your independence by making impulsive purchases or taking risks with your money. You are more protective of the way you earn or spend money, as well as with the values you live your life by, and if others question you about these things, there could be arguments.

Aries (Born April 1 to 10)
AND Aries Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Aries:
February 2021 Career, & General Trends
February 2021
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
All month:
The Sun lights your solar eleventh house. The Sun illuminates your sector of friends, groups, and dreams coming true this month. It's a sociable sector of your chart, and that's exactly how you are feeling--happy, light-hearted, cosmopolitan, and social. Group affiliations capture your attention. Connections can be made now and networking pays off, or at least satisfies. Being part of a community or circle of friends and building your social network is important to you at this time.
This is a rather happy, goal-oriented cycle. A lively agenda is promised, you're attracting quite a bit of interest, and your energy for making contact with others is high. A stronger sense of community is with you during this cycle. Relationships take on a fun, if impersonal, tone now. Activities with children (especially others' children) may increase. You are more stimulated by all that is unconventional during this cycle, and your ideas are original and progressive now. This is a time to follow your dreams and ideals, and to plant a seed in the form of a wish for the future.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort
Until the 9th:
Venus continues to transit your solar tenth house. Relationships with authority figures, superiors, and with the public are in focus during this cycle. It's a strong period for diplomatic relations, although a negative expression of this position could be bending over backwards to please rather than positive, friendly relations. It's a time when being a team player reaps the most rewards, and you may be mixing business with pleasure now. This may be a time when you are especially enjoying your career or position and making the most of it.
From February 9th forward:
Venus graces your solar eleventh house now. Forming harmonious, warm social friendships, possibly related to group activities within a club, can figure now. You may meet someone through such group activities; consequently, your interests will be shared.

Aries (Born April 11 to 20)
AND Aries Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Aries:
February 2021 Aries Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
February 2021
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until February 8th:
The Sun continues to put a spotlight on your solar tenth house. Satisfaction and fulfillment during this cycle come from doing your professional best, shining as a responsible and capable person, and contributing to the world in practical ways. You might have a chance to receive acknowledgement or praise for your work or good character now. Landing support from authority figures is easier at this time. Avoid the pitfalls of pride or arrogance standing in your way of success.
From February 8th forward:
The Sun lights your solar eleventh house. The Sun illuminates your sector of friends, groups, and dreams coming true this month. It's a sociable sector of your chart, and that's exactly how you are feeling--happy, light-hearted, cosmopolitan, and social. Group affiliations capture your attention.

Until February 17th:
Venus continues to transit your solar tenth house. Relationships with authority figures, superiors, and with the public are in focus during this cycle. It's a strong period for diplomatic relations, although a negative expression of this position could be bending over backwards to please rather than positive, friendly relations. It's a time when being a team player reaps the most rewards, and you may be mixing business with pleasure now.

If a romance were to begin during this time frame, it would be characterized by a strong feeling of camaraderie, but it could also be rather impersonal and perhaps lacking in depth and intimacy.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Mercury is retrograde from January 30th to February 20th:
All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of communications in general and job or health-related communications because Mercury rules these areas of your life. There can be delays or rethinking with these matters.
Occurring in your solar eleventh house this time, extra care should be used when communicating with friends. You may find that communications with friends or with groups can easily become sticky during this cycle. Group meetings may be postponed or cancelled, and friends may be uncommunicative or giving off mixed signals. On the other hand, old acquaintances may appear during this cycle, or you could be thinking about contacting an old friend. This may be a good time to do so. It would be wise to be especially clear when it comes to communicating with friends and associates during this cycle; or, better yet, take this time to rethink concerns and grievances before talking about them prematurely.
Mercury, while retrograde, returns to your tenth house on the 8th, and is direct in your tenth house on the 20th: Mercury transits your solar tenth house. You are likely thinking a lot about your career and business matters, or your career requires more communication than usual during this cycle. You speak with authority during this period, and you are more accountable than usual for what (and how) you communicate. Your ideas may come into public view now. Use the power of words to influence authority figures. This is an excellent period for developing career and professional plans or strategies. You may be turned to for advice or for your opinion on important matters. Although approachable and ready to communicate, you are less inclined to chat about frivolous matters now. You tend to think about your position or standing on a professional level more frequently during this cycle. You are likely doing some multi-tasking regarding career and business matters. Negative use of this influence would be to worry unnecessarily about your reputation and responsibilities.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until the 14th:
Mars continues to activate your solar first house, supplying you with added energy to apply towards personal goals, and a more assertive and direct approach to the world in general.
This is an excellent period for physical training and exercise of any kind. The desire to be self-sufficient and independent is especially strong now. You are far less tolerant of being restricted by or dependent on others, and this is a good time to identify your personal strengths and take positive action to rectify situations that may have previously felt frustrating or repressive.
You might be especially attracted to personal challenges, and seeing just how far you can push. However, be careful not to push yourself (and others) too far.
From the 14th forward:
Mars energizes your solar second house. You have more energy at your disposal to make money, but also to defend your values. This can be a very resourceful time, when you make the most of what you have. You have much energy for new money-making projects, or for stepping up existing ones.
You may be over-identifying with what you have and own, and you could be trying to prove yourself (your worth) to others using money and possessions as the means to do so. If conflicts occur during this transit, they are likely to be over issues of ownership. This is a time when impulse buying is at a peak. You probably should avoid using credit right now, simply because your spending habits may be excessive and impulsive.
Overview Horoscope:
February 2021 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Aries:
There is a pile-up of planets in your solar eleventh house this month, dear Aries, spotlighting your aspirations, social life, sense of the future, and inventiveness. Your ideals and long-term happiness goals are a huge focus now. Not everything runs perfectly in these areas, particularly if you're feeling a pinch with money, talents, or resources, but there are also plenty of opportunities to make meaningful changes.
The last week of February brings a greater need and desire for time to yourself for personal renewal and recuperation, and this will continue into March. Because the first few weeks of February may have been hectic, this can come as a welcome relief. The last few days of the month require attention to work goals with a Full Moon in your sector of work and health.
Still, February is strong for reconsidering, reorganizing, reconnecting, and generally pouring special attention into your social life or feeling of connectedness, in general. You're making room for connections, relationships, and projects that empower and excite you. The benefits of a reset are great, even if they’re not immediately apparent, and the New Moon on the 11th helps pull everything together.
Mercury is retrograde until the 20th, and although you're full of ideas and feeling inspired, there can be some backtracking or waiting to do before you can truly move ahead with plans. There can be notable conversations or good "thinks" in February, mainly about past matters, resolving problems, and forgiveness. There are treasures to be found in old projects, studies, and interests. You might revisit past friendships.
Rethinking some details of recently-made plans can work to your benefit in the long run. Watch for missing information or fuzzy thinking. It's best to be more alert than usual with dealings with friends, associates, and groups, as well as business income. You're gathering valuable information this month, and it's a great time for processing and rediscovering old interests or plans.
From the 1-25, you seek people and situations that make you feel at ease about expressing who you are. You more readily attract friends and those who share common interests. Considering Mercury is retrograde in your social sector until the 20th, Venus in the same area of your solar chart to the 25th can help iron out differences and smooth things out.
It's satisfying to accomplish something tangible and measurable this month as Mars moves through your solar second house. Strong connections between your money and career sectors can produce nice opportunities to prioritize and make what you deserve. You seem to gravitate to those ventures and activities that serve you best. You see the importance of strategy and patience with your practical affairs this month.
Still, Mars clashes with bodies in your social sector at various times in February. Aim to tame impulses to overdo, overspend, or push since there's a small possibility that impatience could lead to damage, loss, or disadvantage. Conflicts with others over money or values and matters of respect are possible. It's best to recognize when/if ego issues are taking over and unnecessarily straining relationships. You may think that filling a sudden desire will be the answer to all your problems, but it's more likely a mere distraction. As excited as you are about new happiness goals, it's better not to jump into something too soon. If you keep your expectations in check, you may be able to roll with the competitive energy and allow it to fuel your motivation to up your game. For best results, identify your priorities and recognize that you can't do everything at once.
On the 11th, Venus and Jupiter align, and a New Moon occurs in your solar eleventh house. A new friendship, group connection, love interest through networking, or friendship goals can be in the works. Connections formed now can be enriching and beneficial. This can be a time of social refreshment and for detoxing from pressured situations and goals. You're feeding your soul and reminding yourself that happiness counts!
You’re in an excellent position to come up with non-traditional ideas that motivate and inspire you this month. You might seriously consider a significant purchase or valuable changes made to your spending or saving habits.
A Saturn-Uranus square first forming this month affects the year ahead, and some tensions emerge related to shifting money sources or a changing attitude toward personal possessions. There can be conflicts with friends about fundamental values. Friendships that survive any ups and downs this year tend to be mature and worthy.
There can be times when you're anxious to expand and grow, but worries about resources or funding can undermine you. You might wrestle with wanting to take risks, but a simultaneous fear of change can hold you back. You may need to watch for borrowing from your future–drawing upon savings meant for other goals, for example–for the time being, which can cause some stress in 2021 as Uranus in your money sector goes to battle with Saturn in your social sector--it all begins this month.
The Sun moves into your solar twelfth house on the 18th, and Venus does the same on the 25th. February becomes increasingly more about emotional renewal, tying up loose ends, and laying low. Although you remain in good shape for friendly relations, you also need to carve out some time to yourself. Mercury's direct turn on the 20th can help un-block information that's kept you in limbo.
The last week of the month is solid for special insight into what will truly work for you, and what won't. If you need to get rid of excess, waste, bad habits, clutter, and other things that may be holding you back from success, you feel far more equipped to do so. You might uncover a resource that truly works for you, particularly on financial, business, and career levels. There can be opportunities to make valuable, meaningful, and useful connections. Improving your communications and approachability is part of this–getting on top of your quickness to respond to others and willingness to reach out can be especially important.
The Full Moon on the 27th prompts an awareness of the need to manage your daily affairs with more punctuality or determination. You might see a flaw in a plan that sets you on the road to improvement, or events occurring now remind you of the need to manage your time more effectively. There can be a turning point or revelation about your work, health, or desire to be productive and useful. With an increased need for renewal and relaxation, you must prioritize finding a better balance between work and rest.

About Our Monthly Horoscopes:
Our detailed monthly horoscopes are designed to reveal and interpret the current transits of the Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Mars in your solar chart. Because these energies or transits do not unfold neatly into any given calendar month (many transits carry forward from one month to the next), you will find some of the energies continue from the previous month. For example, the Sun might transit the fifth house of your solar chart from July 22 to August 22, so that you will find a similar interpretation for this transit in both July and August’s horoscope. This is normal and expected. While new months can hold new energy, transits don’t abruptly change because the calendar month changes.
These monthly horoscopes also include an overview paragraph, as well as other energies specific to the month, such as retrogrades, eclipses, or major outer planet transits.
The Highlights section reveals lunar cycle dates. Lunar cycles repeat themselves approximately every 28 days, so it is normal to see the same lunar peaks, such as “Your Personal New Moon” and “Monthly career peak” repeat themselves from month to month, but with different dates. They serve as a helpful guide to cycle peaks in different areas of life, such as financial, career, romance, and partnership.
The horoscopes are divided into three groups or decanates, and the differences between the groups are subtle in parts and large in other parts. For those who prefer a whole sign approach to horoscopes (classic), simply read the first decanate regardless of your birthdate.
