This continues to be a time of curiosity and learning for you, Aquarius. The recent lunar eclipse, which took place just before the month began, featured the Sun in your sign and the eclipse Moon in your seventh sector of relationship interaction. As the month begins, therefore, you are exploring the impact of important partners on your life. After the solar eclipse of February 15th, you are making a fresh start in matters of identity and self-definition, the way that you see yourself in connection to the world around you. You are in the midst of an investigation into your deepest values from the standpoint of both professional and private concerns. In this last half of the month your learning curve regarding all these areas is greatly accelerated. Your understanding is growing. You are comprehending what truly matters to you in terms of life purpose, and, what is more, heeding a corresponding call to action.


The following was written by this month's guest columnist Adam Elenbaas of The Nightlight Astrology School


The month begins just one day after the lunar eclipse in Leo in your seventh house, indicting that relationships, love, and committed partnership will continue to be highlighted for you as the month goes on. Ever since last August a door has opened for you in this area of your life. With the powerful eclipses of this month, you can expect this transformational journey to continue!

Meanwhile, on February 3rd Mercury in Aquarius in your first house will make a sextile to Mars in Sagittarius in your eleventh house. It’s a great time to start a new project, to redefine yourself, or to develop creative ideas for the future. Friendships and exciting possibilities with friends and groups are also prominent.

On the same day, Venus in Aquarius in your first house will square Jupiter in Scorpio in your tenth house. If you’ve been looking for a job opportunity, or waiting to hear good news in the workplace, this could be the moment you’ve been waiting for. Career growth, love, and relationships related to the workplace abound, along with opportunities for professional development and recognition.

February 7th the Last Quarter Moon in Scorpio will conjoin with Jupiter in your tenth house. This is a critical moment for your career. You might be learning an important lesson, accomplishing goals, or letting go of something related to your professional life.

February 10th the planet Venus moves into Pisces, where it was traditionally said to be “exalted.” It will be thereby moving into your second house of finances. This is a wonderful time for new financial opportunities, windfalls, and blessings, but be careful of overindulgence or extravagant spending. This is also a great transit for connecting to the land and nature, as the second house was traditionally related to land and what we make or draw from the land!

On February 15th it’s a New Moon and solar eclipse in the sign of Aquarius in your first house. This is it. You’re ready now for a total change of life direction. Eclipses sometimes shock us into this revelation, but regardless of how it happens, from this point forward you will be preparing for an exciting new chapter. Watch as the effects play out over the months to come. The effects of eclipses aren’t always immediate, but they are thorough.

On February 17th Mars in Sagittarius in your eleventh house will square Neptune in your second house. How much are you willing to “pay” or sacrifice for your dreams, for your friends, or for those you consider your allies' There is a big difference between consciously compassionate sacrifice and neglecting or harming ourselves in that process. Watch for exciting new visions, friendships, or groups of people sharing similar dreams, but do be careful of losing yourself or wearing rose-colored glasses. The price of anything is measured in the amount of energy and resources it will take you to maintain whatever it is that you most fervently desire.

On February 18th the Sun will enter the sign of Pisces and your second house, and on February 21st Venus will conjoin Neptune in Pisces in your second house. This presages more and more emphasis on finances, the land, resources, earning power and self-sufficiency. You’re ready to take some big steps in this area of your life, but make sure that you keep both feet on the ground and recognize that gains and losses will continue to ebb and flow in life, no matter what big plans we make and no matter what temporary gains or losses may come our way.

Finally, the last few days of the month, Mercury and Venus in Pisces in your second house will square Mars in Sagittarius in your eleventh house. Again, we see the themes of financial growth and friendships, groups, and exciting new opportunities for developing deeper resources. These changes are being channeled through the solar eclipse in your first house from the middle of this month. As you are changing profoundly right now, an entirely new strategy for the future is emerging. Just remember, big changes take time. The temptation to make everything new instantly should be tempered by healthy discernment, patience, and fact gathering. You benefit by letting things happen in their own way, and trusting that with Jupiter in your career house this year, the wind will stay at your back for quite a while.
