Hello February 2025! 👋
February invites reflection on our desires and dreams. While there’s some sense of moving forward with our values, beliefs, and goals, the search for something deeper beckons as the month progresses.
This month’s Full Moon in Leo is connected to Mercury and Uranus. It’s a time to feel what’s in our hearts. Are we speaking what we have heartfelt pride in? How can we courageously share our unique ideas or perspectives with our communities?
Approaching the end of another zodiac cycle, we shift from the objectivity of Aquarius to the mysticism of Pisces. From mid-month, the focus on Pisces and Water signs (Sun, Mercury, Mars, Saturn, North Node) guides us to tap into emotions and trust in timing. With a lack of the Earth element, our challenge is to remain grounded in the human experience as we explore possibilities.
The month rounds off with the New Moon in Pisces squaring Jupiter, a call to delve into our inner worlds. It asks of us: where do we feel connected and present amidst illusions and ambiguity? What inspires us to imagine and believe in the stories we hope to step into?
Key Planetary Aspects (GMT) 📆
1 February – Venus conjunct Neptune in Pisces
A moment to engage with imagination and creativity, trusting where this takes us. Some confusion around our values. Unconditional love and selfless compassion might be the magic we seek in our relationships.
4 February – Mars square Chiron, Jupiter stations direct in Gemini
Renewed confidence in beliefs encourages connections and learning with optimism, while courageously confronting setbacks to heal tensions between taking action and unresolved wounds.
4 February – Venus enters Aries
A shift towards what we value in ourselves. A boldness in expressing matters of the heart and taking our chances to initiate relationships.
9 February – Sun conjunct Mercury in Aquarius
With both planets also squaring Uranus, fresh ideas might shock or surprise. An opportunity to consider different perspectives and reframe what we think we know.
9 February – Mars trine Saturn
Highlights the passion to set foundations. Patience in the pursuit of desires and goals reminds us to be realistic along the way.
12 February – Full Moon in Leo @ 24°05′
Illuminates what we take pride in and self-expression. Opposing Mercury, this Full Moon challenges us to share our ideas in a creative fashion to nurture the collective. The fixed T-square with Sun-Mercury, Moon, and Uranus as the apex suggests resistance towards change: a call to think progressively about what’s emerging personally and around us, leading with both rational authenticity and generous-heartedness.
14 February – Mercury enters Pisces
Our thoughts are more fluid, coloured by emotion and compassion. Gentle communication and heightened intuition inspire deep, emotional conversations.
18 February – Sun enters Pisces
Themes of sensitivity, dreaming, and surrender. Intuitively connecting with signs and symbols as we go with the flow. A search for something greater than ourselves—that rather elusive oneness. Pisces is the final zodiac sign—a moment of introspection on what was and what could be.
24-25 February – Mars stations direct in Cancer, Mercury conjunct Saturn in Pisces
A stronger awareness of how emotions influence our actions and goals. Fighting for what we are emotionally connected to. A more practical perspective on our feelings, seeing sensitivity as a strength.
28 February – New Moon in Pisces @ 9°40′
New beginnings in artistic ventures, spirituality, or relations with the divine. Invites us to let go to move forward—endings in tandem with beginnings. The New Moon squares and is ruled by Jupiter, suggesting emotional waves but also encouraging positivity. Trust in our intuition to find our truth, having faith in what we dream of.
Have a reflective and magical February 🚀✨
