Thursday, FEBRUARY 8

This morning, the Sun forms a square to Uranus, which destabilizes some parts of our lives temporarily, or it can highlight problem areas that already exist. Changes we make now may feel out of character or abrupt. Disrupted routines and plans are likely, and while they can be unsettling at first, they can also stimulate the adoption of new approaches. Our strong desire for independence or to break the rules could impair our judgment. Even so, if we’re willing to learn from our mistakes, we might adopt a more mindful approach to making necessary changes.

We should watch for irresponsibility in our rebellions and guard against temperamental behavior and decision-making. Disruptions can pull up buried frustrations, which we should probably examine more closely–it can certainly be a time to learn something new about ourselves.

Consider that, on this day before a New Moon, it’s better to wind down, reflect, muse, and tie up loose ends than to push ahead with new beginnings. Ideally, we get a chance to recalibrate.

The Moon is void from 2:53 AM EST, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a conjunction to Mars), until the Moon enters Aquarius at 9:00 AM EST.
