It’s officially February, also known as Valentine’s season, and with the sun in Aquarius until Feb. 18, things are beginning to shift in growth mindsets and romantic spaces.
Venus, the planet of romance, remains in Aquarius until Feb. 10. Expect a desire to explore unconventional love, whether that be a new partner or a new trick in the bedroom.
The full moon, known as the “Snow Moon,” occurred Feb. 1 and packed a punch of energy with its arrival, accentuates feelings of restlessness.
While the cosmos are hard at work, here’s how this week will impact each of the zodiac signs:
Aries (March 21–April 19)
Focus on your romantic and personal needs and deeply consider who makes you feel alive. Passion in your romantic life is expected as you chase fiery, magnetic energy. People may look to you for answers due to your innovation. Focus on steady movement and building a stable routine. Start this week, and hop back on Hinge while you’re at it.
Taurus (April 20–May 20)
This week, Uranus, the planet of revolution, moves into your sign Feb. 3, marking the end of a retrograde. This reignites determination after feeling stuck. You might find yourself in a more social mood. Taurus, the universe is signaling to you it’s time to take risks and quit hiding in the shadows. Get out there, you’re meant to be seen.
Gemini (May 21–June 20)
Gemini, this week emphasizes learning new things and sparking curiosity. Now is a great time to try out a hobby or see an old friend. Emphasize talking to friends this week; it brings opportunities and experiences. As Uranus goes direct in Taurus on Feb. 3, expect restlessness with thoughts of the future and long-term goals. Hunker down, Gemini.
Cancer (June 21–July 22)
The week brings great energy to your career path. Now is a great time to network and interview. This time period also calls for you to look inward, examining fears and intuition, which brings a breakthrough for you emotionally. Refocus on communication and return to your own voice. Take care of what takes care of you, Cancer.
Leo (July 23–Aug. 22)
Financially, this week is exquisite for you, with the potential for bonuses or unexpected income. Love is most likely to find those who are single unexpectedly. Be prepared for minor conflicts this week; don’t let this disrupt the path to your goals. Stay grounded in who you are, Leo.
Virgo (Aug. 23–Sept. 22)
The full moon energy will encourage you to clear out parts of you which no longer serve. Focus on setting boundaries and recognizing your own limits. Big feelings are on the horizon. Take a chance, Virgo; it’s time for you to finally get the recognition you deserve.
Libra (Sept. 23–Oct. 22)
This week begs you to live with intention, Libra. The sun in Aquarius is a spark plug for creativity and romance. You may feel lighter and more playful this week. Refocus on balance in your daily life, especially in your career. Your career will also grow more stable this week, so avoid any major decisions.
Scorpio (Oct. 23–Nov. 21)
If you have been putting in work on yourself or your professional standing, you will see results this week. Your words are important this week and people may seek out your advice more than usual. Although this week brings fresh energy, remember to stay rooted, as later this month, health and confidence will take a hit.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22–Dec. 21)
Buckle up, Sagittarius, this week brings high emotions and inner turmoil. Expect to feel slightly off this week as you may face work hurdles or relationship challenges. Ground yourself in meaningful moments and practice patience. Spend time with your loved ones and rely on their support. Work on recognizing big feelings, not trying to control them.
Capricorn (Dec. 22–Jan. 19)
Capricorn, this week is a good time to work on your foundation. The efforts you make now toward your health and well-being will pay off later this month. Refocus on exercise and commit to solid routines this week.
Aquarius (Jan. 20–Feb. 18)
This week, Aquarius, avoid impulsive decisions and focus instead on the best version of you. While the sun rests in your sign, you may feel particularly drawn to break free from expectations placed on you by yourself or others. The full moon will particularly affect your personal relationships. Those who are single may meet someone special and couples could make big changes for the future.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Pisces, this is a time to slow down and recharge. The energy of the full moon forces you to break bad habits. Mercury, the planet of communication, moves into Pisces Feb. 6, bringing newfound confidence and important personal discoveries or news your way. Focus on yourself.
