Astrology Forecast February 12 – 18, 2024
We’ll have a productive start to the week as the Moon moves through industrious Aries today and tomorrow, then into grounded Taurus Wednesday through Friday, keeping the momentum going and us on track.
It will be an interesting week due to a crescendo of planetary alignments in Aquarius. Not only are the Sun and Mercury in Aquarius, but Mars and Venus will also move into this electric sign this week!
Aquarius is associated with qualities such as innovation, originality, and humanitarianism. With several planets aligned in this sign, we can expect an increased focus on collective goals, group dynamics, and progressive ideas this week. There may also be an emphasis on out-of-the-box thinking and a desire for social change.
The Sun in Aquarius promotes a sense of independence, intellectual pursuits, and a focus on humanitarian causes, while Mercury in Aquarius promotes innovative thinking, open-mindedness, and a preference for intellectual discussion.
Mars, associated with energy, action and drive, enters Aquarius tomorrow, leading to a more assertive pursuit of unconventional goals, social activism and technological advances. Venus rules love, beauty, and harmony and enters Aquarius on Friday, emphasizing unconventional relationships, a desire for freedom in love, and a focus on social connections.
Astrology Forecast February 5 – 11, 2024
Mercury moves into Aquarius today, challenging us to think differently for the next few weeks. Breaking out of old molds and thought processes will be the challenge as the rulin planet of communication, intellect, and the mind moves through this electric sign.
Our most productive days of the week will be tomorrow and Wednesday as the Moon marches through Capricorn, so get your to-do list completed before the fireworks and celebrations begin, as this week marks the beginning of the Chinese New Year 2024.
This year we celebrate the Year of the Dragon, more specifically, Wood Dragon. An Aquarius New Moon occurs on Friday, February 9th, which officially kicks off Chinese New Year on February 10th, lasting until January 28th, 2025.
The Year of the Dragon is any esteemed year in Chinese culture, as it is associated with strength, prosperity, and good fortune. In the Chinese zodiac, each year is associated with one of the twelve animal signs, and the Dragon is the only mythical creature in the cycle. People born in the Year of the Dragon are believed to inherit the dragon’s characteristics, which include intelligence, ambition, courage, and a strong sense of justice. Continue reading
Astrology Forecast January 29 – February 4, 2024
The week begins with great energy to get your show on the road with three determined Virgo Moon trines this morning.
The first trine with Mars in Capricorn will kick off the day with decisive action, willpower and resourcefulness, followed by a trine with Uranus in Taurus to promote creativity, originality and an innovative mindset. The third trine with Mercury in Capricorn will seal the deal with some quick-witted intelligence, sound judgment and practical thinking.
Get as much done today as you can to set the stage for the week ahead, for when the Moon moves into Libra tomorrow, our work ethic will take a backseat to our social and emotional lives. You may find yourself more interested in social activities, spending time with friends and nurturing your relationships.
The Moon moves into Scorpio on Thursday afternoon, bringing a more intense energy through Saturday. Some of us will be drawn to spiritual and esoteric pursuits, while others will take on projects that require intense focus and attention, like taxes, haha!
Watch out for the Scorpio Moon square Pluto in Aquarius on Thursday afternoon, as this transit is known to cause drama and conflict. Think twice before you lash out and avoid fights over taxes, joint finances, debt or alimony!
Astrology Forecast January 22 – 28, 2024
Everything in moderation is the recommended mantra this week, as the cosmic outlook promises to be all about tempting makeovers, unexpected new goals and potentially costly reinventions.
The scene is set for a relaxed, even lazy attitude this morning due to a Gemini Moon square to Neptune in Pisces, followed by a lunar opposition to Venus in Sagittarius this afternoon.
Not only do these transits tend to induce a passive, dreamy state of mind, but they can also make us feel a bit hypersensitive, insecure, and unbalanced. The perfect breeding ground for restlessness and dissatisfaction!
Head vs. heart issues can cause us to be all over the place or even volatile today, so take extra care to stay grounded and don’t act hastily. A good way to counteract this is to start your day with a calming guided meditation.
Venus moves into Capricorn tomorrow until February 16, 2024. This could inspire a major personal or home makeover. Makeovers are great, but keep in mind that Venus doesn’t really care about your budget and could have you spending a lot of money to reinvent your lifestyle. Continue reading
Astrology Forecast January 15 – 21, 2024
We may feel a little directionless and passive today under the waxing crescent moon in Pisces.
This dreamy, relaxed mood will peak this afternoon when the Capricorn Sun sextiles the Pisces Moon, followed shortly by a Pisces Moon conjunction with Neptune in Pisces.
If you are highly sensitive, you may feel more thoughtful, sluggish, or unbalanced today. However, if you are a creative, this may also be a good time to focus on projects.
Fortunately, things will speed up tomorrow and Wednesday as the Moon moves into sure-footed Aries. These are the two days when we will get the most done this week, and a good time to start new projects and take desired actions.
The main key to creating positive movement forward will be asking for help. Brainstorming and research will also be helpful in making the most of these two days.
A Mars conjunction with Jupiter on Wednesday will bring an extra burst of energy and enthusiasm. It’s a good time to take on challenges and pursue your goals with confidence. Continue reading
Astrology Forecast January 8 – 14, 2024
There may be lots of talk and very little action today and tomorrow due to the Sagittarius Moon, but this vibe will serve to get many of us back into work mode after the holidays, so don’t stress too much if you don’t get much done.
Luckily, there will be plenty of inspiring energy for new beginnings with the Capricorn New Moon on Thursday. This aspect will get us back on our feet and we’ll be able to catch up in record time, enabling us to tie up loose ends from last year and put a stake in the ground for new ventures.
Tonight’s Mercury in Sagittarius square Neptune in Pisces may be emotionally challenging, especially if you have been dealing with mental health issues. If you feel unwell or begin to spiral during this transit, beware of self-medicating with alcohol, medication, drugs, or stimulants.
Instead, engage in activities that promote relaxation and stress reduction, such as deep breathing exercises, meditation, journaling, or progressive muscle relaxation.
It is also important to stay grounded, calm and realistic during this time, and to avoid making rash decisions or engaging in wishful thinking. If you feel overwhelmed, reach out to a trusted friend, family member, support helpline, or mental health professional.
Astrology Forecast January 1 – 7, 2024
Happy New Year! May your 2024 be a cosmic symphony of love, joy and fulfillment.
May the ancient wisdom of the stars and planets inspire you to dance to the rhythm of your heart this year. May the coming year usher in an era of spiritual expansion for you to discover even more of the limitless power you have within to create the life of your dreams!
The first day of 2024 begins on an auspicious note as Mercury goes direct, putting an end to confusion, miscommunication, technology failures, and travel chaos. But give it a few days to right itself before you make any big plans for the new year. Once Mars moves into hardworking Capricorn on Thursday, we’ll be ready to go full speed ahead, carving a path into the future and putting our plans into action!
The Moon will cruise through Virgo on Monday and Tuesday, filling our heads with ideas and opinions that we would be wise to hold off on just yet.
Let the Libra Moon on Wednesday and Thursday restore our balance before we act on those ideals.
A Scorpio Moon rules the skies Friday through Saturday, where we’ll be looking for more spiritual and inner ways to fill our time. If you are back at work this week, Friday will be an excellent time for business meetings, sales pitches, and financial decisions as the Scorpio Moon trines Saturn in Pisces.
