Scorpio Horoscope for February 2018

This month represents a powerful juncture for you, Scorpio, caught as you are between two eclipses that show up quite strongly in your solar chart. There are, as always, the pressing questions and decisions: do I go, or do I stay' How and when do I give, and how much' And so on. The nagging voices of self-doubt can never be silenced yet they can and will be surmounted. You are attempting to discern your true vocation, and have found yourself over recent weeks in the midst of a huge learning curve involving inner depths, and your evolving sense of spiritual mission for this lifetime; reveling in home and family concerns with also intimations of a broader and more public role. You are being asked to shine your light more brightly to others, for the ultimate benefit of partners, students, and, reaching outward in greater and greater concentric circles, all members of the social matrix that surrounds you.

The month begins just one day after the lunar eclipse in Leo. The eclipse landed in your tenth house of career. Lunar eclipses represent endings and culmination; don’t be surprised if you see more significant changes related to your job or the workplace this month. It might also be helpful to remember that the effects of eclipses take a while to play out.

Meanwhile, on February 3rd Mercury in Aquarius in your fourth house will make a sextile to Mars in Sagittarius in your second house. You might be buying, selling, or improving your house at this time, or you could be revising your budget or selling or purging your house of unnecessary clutter. Mercury and Mars are also known for mental or verbal intemperance so be careful to remain mindful and patient.

On the same day, Venus in Aquarius in your fourth house will square Jupiter in Scorpio in your first house. It’s a good time for reimagining your personal aesthetic or the aesthetics of your home. You may be feeling quite romantic, or you might be enjoying the company of friends and family in the warmth of a beautiful home environment. Be careful not to indulge in too much of anything as Jupiter and Venus are prone to excessiveness.

February 7th the Last Quarter Moon in Scorpio will conjoin with Jupiter in your first house. This is an important time of personal discovery, honesty, and potentially letting go of things that no longer serve you. With Jupiter in your first house for nearly a full year, the wind is at your back. Make sure you use this time to your advantage, because it won’t last forever. The messages you receive at this time will tell you exactly what you need to know, so long as you have the courage to listen and take the guidance the Universe is giving you.

February 10th the planet Venus moves into Pisces, where it was traditionally said to be “exalted.” This move will also be into your fifth house. If you have children it’s a wonderful time to connect with them or to watch them as they shine and grow. For the next thirty days this will benefit your own creative projects, imagination, and fantasies. It’s a good time for going out with friends, and falling in love at first sight. Allow yourself to feel the childlike joy of this moment.

On February 15th it’s a New Moon and solar eclipse in the sign of Aquarius in your fourth house. This eclipse marks the start of something new in your home and family. Perhaps someone is getting married, or perhaps you’re moving or starting a family, or similar changes could be in the works. Family karma may rise to the surface at this time, or you may see significant alterations in the lives of your family members.

On February 17th Mars in Sagittarius in your second house will square Neptune in Pisces in your fifth house. You can easily lose money or spend too much money or be confuse about financial issues right now, so be careful. You may also feel the need to sacrifice something for the sake of someone you love, perhaps a lover or your children. Be careful not to martyr yourself. Mars with Neptune can alternate between passionate and aggressive or else feeling weak and victimized, so be careful of both extremes.

February 21st Venus will conjoin Neptune in Pisces in your fifth house. Again, the theme of creativity, fertility, sexuality, romance, children, and pregnancy are pronounced. Be sure that you’re keeping both feet on the ground, but otherwise enjoy the inspiration and joyfulness.

Finally, on February 25th, Mercury will conjoin with Neptune in Pisces in your fifth house and Venus in Pisces will square Mars in Sagittarius in your second house. What brings you both health and happiness' What does the healthiest, most imaginative, and blissful version of you look like, and what is the simplest and most direct way to honor your needs and desires without being destructive' These might be the biggest questions of the month, and they are taking place in the midst of two eclipses, between your career house and your more private self as revealed in home and family concerns.
