What Does February Look Like & What Does This Look Like For Your Modality? Cardinal, Muteable & The Fixed Signs.
February is a month where you can let your creativity shine without retrograde influences. Mercury, the planet associated with thinking and perspective, moves into freedom-loving Aquarius on February 5. This encourages you to think creatively and explore new ideas. Just be mindful of your ego as you tap into your intuitive brilliance — there’s always room for learning and growth. If you’ve been trying to establish a healthier routine, February might bring some challenges, reminding you that you can be your own obstacle. The new moon in Aquarius on February 9 presents an opportunity to push your perceived limits.
Around February 13, Mars in Aquarius pushes you to tackle problems and stand up against injustices you might witness. Before addressing external issues, it’s essential to self-reflect and avoid judgment. Valentine’s Day on February 14 could bring intense power dynamics with Mars and Pluto united, so be mindful of how you assert your intentions and consider others’ feelings.
On February 16, love takes on a more friendly vibe as Venus moves into sociable Aquarius. It’s an excellent time to enjoy pleasure and enjoyment with friends and your community. Emotional depth enters the picture on February 18 or 19 (depending on your time zone) as the Sun shifts into compassionate Pisces. The last month of the astrological year encourages you to practice understanding diverse beliefs with sensitivity and an open heart.
As February wraps up, your artistic and imaginative side comes to life through music and art, especially when Mercury enters Pisces on February 23. The full moon in Virgo on February 24 urges you to balance your critical and imaginative aspects. Your challenges require your entire presence and awareness, especially as Saturn is involved with this impactful lunation. When seeking answers, be careful not to turn to the wrong places or seek advice from those who can’t relate to your journey.
