This Month in Astrology – February 2023

February 2023 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Aries:

February holds good energy for collaboration, sharing, and learning, dear Aries. Friendship is fruitful, and networking is a rich source of ideas and support. There can be pleasant interactions with friends, or your plans and dream projects are moving forward.

The Full Moon on the 5th can bring your feelings to the surface. You might acknowledge buried feelings for someone or connect with your true feelings about a special project or pursuit. The need to enjoy and express yourself is strong now.

This can be a time of a busy social life or gaining inspiration and motivation to pursue your happiness goals and special projects or interests. If you’ve been approaching a project independently, you might now recognize the need to delegate tasks, collaborate, or start something new. The change is likely to be empowering, even if your first instinct is to resist it. A friend or even a friend of a friend can open a window of opportunity for you, so pay close attention and stay connected.

While the month is not necessarily quick-paced, it does feature a comfortable level of forward movement. Conversations open up, and projects gain some momentum.

Personal interests and projects, more involvement with friends or the community, and learning pursuits are all in focus and in good form in February. You may be taking the lead, or your participation may increase. You're eager when it comes to these things and quite dedicated, but not as motivated to handle work and chores or other more routine matters.

Still, you're finding more time and space to restore, absorb, and digest with Venus in your privacy sector to the 20th and the Sun from the 18th forward. You can enjoy this outgoing phase while keeping some of your feelings to yourself or your love life private. As the month progresses, you're heading into a period of review and reflection.

You gravitate to moments alone or, at least, out of the fast lane with the Sun in your solar twelfth from the 18th forward and a New Moon there on the 20th. The best way to truly process and digest recent experiences seems to be through relaxation or retreat. You may need to step back from situations to see the whole story. You are beginning a period best used for emotional renewal, tying up loose ends, and laying low. The better you do this, the more prepared you will be for increasing planetary activity in your sign in March.

Even with a more inward focus, Venus moves into your sign on the 20th, and personal charm gets a boost. A partner can be in your corner, and money matters resolve in your favor. You're also hosting Jupiter, Juno, and Vesta, and you're feeling empowered and motivated.

Not too long ago, Mars was retrograde, and since turning direct, it has been slowly chugging along. It’s picking up speed in February, increasing energy and motivation levels. This re-energizing influence is perhaps most apparent with your personal goals, studies, communications, transportation, neighbors, siblings, or classmates. There can be renewed interest in learning, connecting, and projects. Fewer obstacles standing in your way can boost your motivation further.

February 2023 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Taurus:

Your career or responsibilities are in strong focus in February, dear Taurus, but planets in your social sector, including your ruler, Venus, ensure a nice balance with happiness pursuits. Support for your career, or a whole new vision of where you want your professional life to go, comes now. You're in a goal-oriented, take-charge frame of mind! Career and money matters can be especially fruitful in February. At the same time, friends and networking can be satisfying.

You're drawing upon your wisdom and experience to make better decisions, and it's easier to get around obstacles this month. Communications are clearer. You're making plans for your career, life path, money, or business.

There can be increased recognition, an award, or even a promotion. Your ambitions are stirring this month, but you also enjoy contributing to a team or group effort where you can shine.

The Full Moon on the 5th reminds you to pay more attention to your home and family life. If you've been spending too much time on your obligations to the outside world, this is a period for returning things to balance.

From the 18-20 forward, you'll be considerably less focused on your duties and more interested in fulfilling goals related to your sense of community and personal happiness. There can be surprising happenings with friends or acquaintances and possibly a love relationship after the New Moon on the 20th. Unexpected meetings or changes that point you in a new direction can occur now. Resolve to make the most of friendships and group involvements in the weeks ahead.

But even with the Sun's move to your social sector on the 18th, your ruler, Venus, heads into your privacy sector on the 20th. Again, you're in two minds. Especially with a busier social cycle, aim to take frequent opportunities to rest and relax. You may discover an activity that satisfies both your need for new experiences and your desire to lay low.

Jupiter, the planet of growth and expansion (and what some might consider luck), will enter your sign for a year-long stay in just a few months. Until then, aim to clarify what you'd like to change, seek, and conquer.

You can experience a lovely re-energized feeling with business and financial matters in February. Money matters are improving - you may be getting more control over your income. Mars is picking up speed in your resources sector, and you're pursuing practicals and money more confidently. You can be excited about making improvements and taking on new interests or projects, but it's best to avoid impulsive actions. You may be working your way through tricky problems and challenges with ease.

February 2023 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Gemini:

You're seeking more mental stimulation this month, dear Gemini. You're spirited and self-expressive, and you more readily get fired up about opinions and causes. It's a fine time to expand your mind and break the usual routine. The desire to develop, learn, and grow is real, and you're likely to find satisfying outlets for doing so. Others appreciate your knowledge and breadth of vision. You can make beneficial connections and find it easier to take problems in stride in February.

You're also more willing to see the big picture than focus on little problems. Of course, if this is taken too far, you'll fall behind on practical details, and the Full Moon on the 5th can help you find a balance.

It wasn't long ago that Mars was retrograde in your sign, and you may have felt sluggish. This month, however, your desire to move something forward builds.

Now that Mars is picking up speed as it transits your sign, you're becoming clearer about your individuality, what you like about yourself, and what you want to change. You bring more of what's on the inside to the outside as you strive towards more authenticity and effectiveness. Physical vitality may improve in February. You might restart programs or routines.

Your independence and freedom are crucial to you, and your desire nature is potent. Your energy levels run high, and your pioneering instincts are strong.

You're also less likely to have to clarify your intentions. Doing your best to tame impulses to overshoot or jump into something without forethought can be the key to success. It's an important month to open your mind and heart to new ideas and find more meaning in your life.

At the same time, your ambitions are building. From the 18th, your focus tends to be more organized. If you've been working hard, rewards for your work can come now. Use the power of the New Moon on the 20th to motivate a fresh start with your responsibilities and career pursuits. Your desire to make a difference, do your share, and further your goals is strong.

You might come into the limelight in some manner now, or you'll find others are noticing you for your performance and actions. There can be the need to follow the rules or straighten out an area of your life.

More frequently as February progresses, your attention turns to your responsibilities, plans, work, and status. You're accountable for what you do and say, and you may take the lead in a particular field or with a unique project. There could be new goals or ambitions.

While the 20th brings a New Moon at the top of your solar chart and a stronger focus on career and obligations, it also brings Venus into your social sector. Networking or connections with friends or the community can be pleasurable and beneficial. A healthy balance of work and play seems more achievable.

You can find many reasons to feel encouraged and positive about the direction of your life this month. You're hungry to feel inspired, and the good news is that you're likely to get what you wish.

February 2023 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Cancer:

You begin the month with solid energy for introspection, dear Cancer. It's a valuable time to pick up on things you might normally miss. You can get unique insight into an intimate relationship or your own intimate needs, and your perceptions are especially keen.

It's a time to get in touch with your innermost desires and to plan and strategize rather than charge ahead, although this can change by the last week of the month. You are a student of human nature this month, including your own! You have little interest in superficial things and relationships.

Events and circumstances around the Full Moon on the 5th can demand a change in your spending habits or budget. You are receiving a cosmic push to improve your approach to your money and things. Get organized as much as possible now. If you've been underutilizing a particular resource or asset, including a talent, you'll see this clearly now. You're likely to have a moment of great clarity that helps you to establish your priorities.

Shared resources and money, those things jointly owned, and loans/debts or emotional support should be strong in February. It's a good time to improve relationships, especially those with power imbalances or money problems.

Transits support mutually beneficial agreements, cooperation, and valuable feedback. Study or research can turn up the answers you need and perhaps some rewards. Focusing on something absorbing and pouring a lot of energy into a project you care about can figure strongly. A refund, bonus, or loan may come through, or there can be an income boost for a partner.

There can be excellent opportunities to open up communications about deeper needs and desires this month. Intimate relationships can thrive. Still, when the Sun meets Saturn for the last time in your solar eighth house mid-month, there can be a reminder of a financial obligation or responsibility, or there can be a reality to face in a close connection. It's a good time to finally resolve a long-standing problem in these areas.

Opportunities to break out of your routine abound and inspire you this month with Venus in your spirit sector to the 20th and the Sun from the 18th forward. These transits bring an outward focus and encourage learning, debating, and sharing ideas. You find the spirit and motivation to enjoy extracurricular activities. From the 18th, you'll spend less time reflecting and ruminating and more time living spiritedly. You're more boldly pursuing your interests.

Even so, Mars spends all of February in your privacy sector. While Mars is no longer retrograde, you're still in a hatching stage. Taking concrete action on important matters should probably wait until after Mars moves into your sign on March 25th.

You can magnetize positive things your way on a professional level from the 20th forward. You're more natural and charming in professional or public dealings. While the Sun is now encouraging a more freeform to your life, in general, Venus ensures you pay attention to the practical side of your life and enjoy doing it! It's a great time for your reputation.

February 2023 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Leo:

Partnerships are in sharp focus this month, dear Leo, and can be supportive and spirited. February is a strong month for socializing, connecting, and enjoying the people in your life, but it's also a time when you're ready and willing to go deeper. Absorbing hobbies, relationships, and activities can be a strong draw.

At the same time, facing reality on a matter can figure strongly mid-month as the Sun meets Saturn in your partnership sector for the final time before Saturn leaves this area of your solar chart. It's a good time to process what you've learned about others and about yourself through the lens of a relationship.

Stimulating friendships and group activities, as well as increasing energy, figure strongly. Friendships or activities with friends resume, and you're more interactive. You can be in high demand. The emphasis is on "us" more than "me" in February. You seem to need the energy and support of others at this time of the year. It's a time of seeking balance through a different perspective or feedback. It's also a strong time for counseling and advice.

The Full Moon on the 5th activates an urge to change your personal image to reflect recent inner changes. It happens in your sign, and it pulls up any emotions you've buried in recent weeks.

It's a strong month for talking things through with others. Negotiations and agreements are necessary and beneficial now. You enjoy brainstorming and collaborating. Opposing viewpoints help you arrive at a fuller understanding of your own. It can be a good time for opening the airwaves with a partner, significant other, or a good friend. It can also be a busy and energetic time for mental pursuits and interests.

From the 18th, you're digging deeper and looking within yourself or to a significant other or pet project for sustenance. Joint ventures can thrive now. The New Moon on the 20th can get the ball rolling on a financial or support issue. It's harder to break your concentration as you are far less sensitive to potential distractions. With this focus, you can move mountains.

It can also be a good time for figuring out something about yourself – a buried desire or motivation, for example. You might uncover something missing, lost, or hidden.

Friendships can be lively this month, and there can be a second chance to make things right with friends or groups or modify long-term plans. In truth, others may demand much of your time and energy, but for the most part, your involvement is rewarding. You've gained new insights into what you truly desire and what makes you happy. Increasingly, you're excited to work with your ideas and projects or connect with friends.

Boosting a key relationship through shared activities or finding a relationship through learning or activities outside of the usual bounds can figure strongly in the last week of February.

February 2023 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Virgo:

February brings special attention to your habits, routines, health, work, and closest relationships, dear Virgo. You're busy, engaged, and dividing your time well. Doing your best work and taking pride in what you do are a focus. You are in a great position to upgrade your daily affairs, whether through improved systems or relationships with people you live/work with (and possibly both). It's a time for thinking up new methods and plans for self-improvement that excite you.

Saturn spends its final full month in your work and health sector. This planet of structure and discipline will officially move on in March, and this month, the Sun meets with Saturn. It's a time for taking in, processing, and digesting the lessons of this transit that's been with you for over two years. Ideally, you've tightened your routines for your chores, work, and wellness pursuits. Mid-February, you're ready to go forward with more confidence that you are in a realistic place.

Mars is picking up speed after retrograde motion until last month, and you regain motivation for career or life-path pursuits. You're renewing your interest in taking charge and pursuing your longer-term goals. Hard work may not pay off just yet, but you enjoy some progress.

You are sharper, more directed, and more focused than usual. It's a fine time to make a real dent in your to-do list. You have planetary support for your efforts as long as you pay attention to the message of the Full Moon on the 5th - you also need to make time for spiritual and emotional renewal. You can see how spiritual health impacts the rest of your life, and it becomes impossible to ignore. If it doesn't come naturally, schedule it in!

From the 18th, you begin a more relationship-focused period of the year. In truth, you're primed for this theme all month. However, with the Sun's move into your partnership sector on the 18th and a New Moon there on the 20th, you more fully recognize the need for support and companionship. You're in an excellent position to attract others' involvement and confidence. The path clears for new beginnings in a relationship. Your attention shifts from producing and tidying to companionship and togetherness. More and more, you seek out feedback and company. Fortunately, it’s a great time for relationships that involve advice-giving, agent work, and counseling.

A relationship can be pleasantly open or a special project very inviting with Venus in your solar eighth house from the 20th. Benefics in this area of your solar chart boost your intimate and financial life. Charisma in love matters is substantial. You’re finding ways to combine fun and intimacy creatively. If needed, you might successfully sort out matters of sharing and support. There could be a bonus or loan that improves your sense of security.

February 2023 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Libra:

There's more openness and clarity in your interactions this month, dear Libra. You're expressing yourself well and feeling more optimistic. The best version of yourself shines through in your love relationships and business partnerships, especially after the 20th. It's a powerful period for improving or attracting a romantic relationship and finding ways to enjoy yourself more regularly. It can be a time for a positive buzz surrounding your creative projects or ideas, which are catching on well.

You're discovering all the things that bring joy to your life this month. Your charm soars, and your romantic life picks up pace. Around the time of the Full Moon on the 5th, a friend may need your assistance, or you may be reaching out to others for help. You're having a great time doing your own thing, but sometimes a little extra support can help you do even better.

Energy levels are increasing, and creative abilities are peaking. Highly stimulating conversations allow you to brainstorm and come up with answers to problems that have previously divided you now that Mars is picking up speed after a lengthy retrograde cycle. Monotony is difficult to take this month! You might thoroughly enjoy a new perspective, lifestyle, or culture that expands your mind and opens your heart through a key relationship. Projects surrounding publishing and learning can move ahead this month.

It's also an excellent time to pursue intellectual interests and studies, hobbies, and romantic pursuits. Extra-curricular activities can be more satisfying and attractive than usual. Confidence in sharing and expressing yourself more freely is on the upswing. Partnership and family matters combine in more pleasing, creative ways, too.

One-on-one exchanges can be particularly beneficial, and a pleasant conversation can figure strongly. Thoughts or musings can take you somewhere special this month.

Ideally, you've found ways to bring more discipline and structure to your world of leisure and love in recent years with Saturn in your solar fifth house of recreation, children, and creativity. Saturn is spending its final full month in this area of your chart, and with the Sun and Saturn meeting mid-February, you get the chance to assess how far you've come with these endeavors. If obstacles interfere with your time for relaxation, it's a great time to address them.

The 18th forward brings more attention to getting your daily life into order. If your routine is less than satisfactory, you need to look at where you can make improvements, and energy for makeovers is strongest after the 20th. It's time to invest more time and energy into your work and fitness or nutritional programs. You continue to need time and space for exploration and spontaneity, but in the last week of the month, establishing better routines is essential.

Sudden events or opportunities can push you in the right direction in your work or with health endeavors. Be open and willing to make necessary changes, but avoid overly hasty or rebellious actions.

You're likely to enjoy a comfortable sense of progress this month. With planetary influences pushing for both work and play, you may very well reach an ideal balance.

February 2023 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Scorpio:

February brings a focus on your personal life, home, family, and leisure, dear Scorpio. It's a time to make memories with family and special people in your life. While introspection is in order, you have Venus in your sector of joy until the 20th, and the Sun there from the 18th forward, and you're making time for living life well.

Mars is picking up speed in your solar eighth house, reinforcing that looking within and focusing on your inner world can be rewarding. You're also finding time to have fun, break out of the routine, and express yourself in unique ways. Work on or around the home can be more productive, and your motivation to pursue a particular project or relationship increases after some months of uncertainty.

You're taking more pride in your domestic world, home, or family, and it shows! Talking through problems with people you love or housemates can be most successful--communications open. You might arrive at an interesting and valuable view of your personal history.

With less concern for public approval or meeting societal expectations this month, you get the chance to strengthen from within, and you need this now. Making creative changes in your personal world is satisfying. Of course, career and responsibilities do need some attention, and the Full Moon on the 5th reminds you of this balance. However, the main thrust is toward boosting your home life in February.

With Mars picking up the pace in your solar eighth house, your intimate life is also picking up speed, or you have a stronger sense of who you want, and what you want from your relationships. Matters surrounding shared finances, debts, or support can advance further.

It's a powerful month to rebuild your strength and confidence. But while a lot is going on under the hood, others are taking notice. People find you especially charming and attractive. New hobbies, creative outlets, and even love interests are possible now. Making pleasant connections can figure strongly, especially after the 20th.

Improving living arrangements or conditions can be in focus, or you're strengthening ties with loved ones. Things are moving along at a comfortable pace in February with no major planetary retrogrades. You have some breathing room now!

Home life is rewarding and supportive, especially if your goal is to give back and take the time to make your loved ones feel special. You're bringing more energy and pride as well as heightened intelligence to your personal life. These things help you make genuinely valuable improvements. At the same time, Saturn is spending its last full month in your home and family sector before moving on in March, and it's a good time to digest some of the lessons of this transit. Ideally, you see that a more disciplined and structured approach to living helps you in all life departments. You're getting over emotional hurdles.

You're gravitating to things that give you joy and inspire you, and especially from the 18th forward, you have a more interactive, outgoing, and playful attitude. Heartfelt activities are in focus. The New Moon on the 20th pushes the matter if you haven't taken the time to explore and share your talents.

February 2023 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Sagittarius:

February brings excellent energy for connecting, learning, and sharing, dear Sagittarius, and improving and enjoying your domestic world. Your projects, studies, and personal interests continue to gather momentum this month, and you can bring more harmony and warmth to your home and family relationships. Partnerships are animated but clearer and more growth-oriented this month.

February can often be busy, but you're also making room for downtime, detox, and centering yourself. Various activities, work, errands, studies, communications, and getting around the neighborhood can figure strongly. It's not always predictable, but you've learned to prioritize and structure your daily life better with Saturn's visit to your solar third house.

In fact, it's Saturn's final full month of its transit of your communications sector, and February is good for digesting some of its lessons. You're likely better at communicating, although you might decide to work on being more forthcoming as you advance. It's a good time to decide what to cut out to simplify your life. Distractions can eat up far too much time! Aim to manage your energy so that you avoid a hectic environment. There can be plenty of information-gathering and a feeling of being on top of your everyday affairs, ultimately.

The Full Moon on the 5th is surprising, but it falls in harmony with your sign, suggesting that the discoveries and lessons of this lunation are easier on you than many others. It can be a time for awakening to true feelings about a course of study or project, which can propel you in a new direction or reinforce your commitment to a path you're already on.

The Sun heads into your solar fourth house on the 18th, and a New Moon occurs in the same sector two days later, pointing to a powerful time for a fresh start with home, family, or living conditions and arrangements.

Fireworks in a partnership could be in store, or others tend to light a fire under you this month. It's a time to balance your needs with those of someone else. Mars has been sluggish recently, but it’s now picking up speed, and you’re gaining spirit and motivation with others, especially a partnership. You’re in a primarily positive, action-oriented frame of mind, and you can be feeling refreshed and a little braver or more interested in seeing results. It's possible that other people in your life are doing a lot of the directing or leading now. It's temporary and a time for sorting out buried problems in your connections.

Fortunately, you're finding mental inspiration and enjoying new interests and projects this month. It's a fine time to sort out problems and make practical adjustments that will benefit you now and later, particularly related to your studies, transportation, communications, and daily affairs. You benefit from word of mouth this month more than usual. There can be new ideas and plans that gain support and momentum.

February 2023 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Capricorn:

Your practical world assumes more importance this month, dear Capricorn, and you're happy to improve your work, money, health pursuits, and routines. You're also beginning to do more branching out, connecting, and learning. Fresh starts with communicating or getting around can figure strongly.

The month ahead is excellent for mental acuity regarding practical and financial matters. It's also a time for building and developing more than for new ideas or innovation. Your pride in your things, income, or talents is great, and you may be looking to use your assets more to your advantage.

Circumstances raise your mood and encourage positive thinking more frequently in February. With no major players retrograde, projects and pursuits flow more naturally--things are moving along comfortably. You're in perfect shape for thoughts and conversations about money, family, or home life.

The month is good for building your resources, purchasing or maintaining your possessions with a long-term shelf life, and dreaming up ideas about how to make or save more money. Pleasures and comforts are more attractive.

Jointly-held assets and intimacy may be in strong and sudden focus around the 5th when a Full Moon urges you to get in touch with your true feelings about a relationship or a situation. You may need to straighten out matters of support, ownership, dependency, or debt.

With money and belongings, learning where you stand on a matter can be a relief mid-month and can also improve planning and decision-making. You’re finding great value in firming up your routines and meeting challenges head-on. You’ll find that your mind unclutters as you simplify and organize your things.

From the 18th forward, you crave more interactivity and mental stimulation. The New Moon two days later can nudge forward a decision to begin a new course of study or end a particular pursuit or project to clear the path for a new one. Different ways to approach learning, sharing, commuting, and connecting can come into play.

More transportation options might open up. You enjoy--or create--more free time to get out and about. Relationships with siblings, acquaintances, classmates, or neighbors improve and can be a source of happiness. There can be more success with studies or new interests that inspire you.

Mars spends the month in your work and health sector, and it's picking up speed after sluggishness in recent months. This means your motivation to take care of your routines, habits, health, and work is increasing.

Pursuing wellness and better routines can be in happy focus throughout February. Daily affairs are not only straightening out, but they’re also strengthening as you’re motivated to get on top of things. You’re finishing up the month more mobile and communicative.

February 2023 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Aquarius:

February is a potentially fabulous month for confidence, creativity, love, and personal initiatives, dear Aquarius. Communications and learning are also in favor, as well as short trips, communications equipment, and transportation. Mars is gaining speed, stimulating a desire to create, produce, and lead. You attract people and opportunities through your ideas, wit, and intelligence all month.

Your personal plans are at the forefront of your mind, and you can pretty much count on increased vitality or unique appeal this month. It's a good time to grow something important to you, especially a budding business, website, manuscript, or communications project. You are bolder than usual and motivated to pursue what you want. Generally speaking, things are playing in your favor.

Romantic and creative energy runs high--things are picking up. While this can be fun and exciting, it can sometimes frustrate you, especially around the 4th. Still, most of the month, you will likely make this energy work for you. It's a smooth month for moving your projects and interests ahead. Even though this is primarily a month for embracing your independence and paying particular attention to personal needs, incredible power is with you for relationships.

Around the Full Moon on the 5th, you more clearly recognize relationship needs, and feelings can come in a rush. This lunation can bring a personal revelation or a relationship matter to a head. Relationship drama is possible--surprises are in store. You might also reach a turning point in a partnership. It's a time when you would do well to consider another's point of view and do some yielding. Input is valuable now.

The Sun-Saturn alignment mid-month is the last one in your sign before Saturn moves on from Aquarius in March. You might face reality or take on a responsibility, but this transit can also motivate you to clean up a matter that is best left behind you. You might shed unproductive or unhealthy attitudes that weighed you down in recent months. It's a time to see what's genuinely doable. Don't be surprised if you experience strong instincts to narrow in on particular goals and projects now. It's a time for cutting the fluff.

You can be bold and daring in self-expression, and you're also coming across charmingly, especially after Venus enters your communications sector on the 20th. Interesting connections can be made through studies, in your neighborhood, running errands, on the phone, and online.

Money, business, talents, and resources are subthemes this month, gaining more power from the 18-20 forward. In fact, as February advances, you're increasingly interested in matters related to comfort, security, finances, and stability. It can be a time of enjoying the moment but also building your nest. You're discovering new business ideas or improved methods to approach your current endeavors.

After the New Moon on the 20th, you might launch a money-making project, start a savings program, or commit to developing your talents. Business matters can suddenly move forward or require action.

February 2023 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Pisces:

February is strong for restoring your energy, rest, and reflection, dear Pisces. Still, you're getting attention with Venus in your sign until the 20th and the Sun in Pisces from the 18th forward. Life can be quiet, at least on the surface of things. Aim to gather your energies as you prepare for a new astrological year and build up your energy reserves. Personal charisma runs high, even if you're sometimes withdrawn.

Retreating from the world on some level is appropriate, as you need time to reflect on the past and envision what you'd like to do with the birthday year ahead. Some of your ambitions could be on hold just for now. Although some things feel slow, events behind the scenes are at play, conspiring to get you back into high gear. In fact, you'll have plenty of opportunities this month to boost your spirits and emotional health through healing activities, rest, and loving or supportive relationships.

The Sun in your sign from the 18th strengthens your resolve and personal presence. Goals in your domestic life are back on the front burner. The New Moon on the 20th can stir you to initiate a new venture or a special activity that requires confidence and good first impressions.

You continue to benefit from lovely Venus moving through your sign until the 20th, accentuating your finer, more attractive qualities for more to appreciate. You are certainly not short of admirers! Nevertheless, you can be undecided in general this month, gathering your energies and weighing your options with Mercury and the Sun in your privacy sector to the 18th and Mercury from the 11th. Your emotions frequently turn your attention to the past and unresolved matters until the 18-20, when you're gaining inspiration and motivation to chase your dreams.

The Full Moon on the 5th stirs a desire to find more satisfaction from your work, routines, or health and wellness efforts. Any discomfort felt now can motivate you to make changes.

With Mars gathering speed and in your solar fourth house all month, you have more energy for home, security, family, and money. These life departments are animated, lively, and progressing along more quickly. Living arrangements and conditions can be clearer.

The New Moon in your sign on the 20th is a slate cleaner. Something new begins, and it can feel much like a new chapter in your life story. You are ready to kick bad habits, start fresh, and present a more self-assured "you" to the world. It can be a time for an updated image, a new approach, and personal resolutions. Before this date, focus on review, meditation, and activities that help you purge, process, and release negative energy.

You're also uniquely positioned to combine traditional and progressive methods in your personal ventures. Money-making ideas can be golden now, especially later in February. You're discovering new ways of earning, spending, and saving money, and it's exciting! Look for creative ways to develop talents and build your resources.
