Hump Day > V-day BitchScopes for February 14-21

Wow this week is loaded with juicy stuff!!

I noticed that there are more trines and sextiles at play this week, which means the energy flows nicely between planets, and therefore, us. There are a couple of squares, which can be pissy, but overall, this week is lined up for magical stuff!

Forget Valentine’s Day, Plfffft. The big day is Wednesday the 16th. I mean Whoa. First of all the Sun will be squaring the lunar nodes, and this always indicates big karmic magnetism, fate, destiny, and all that. The business of the south node is old stuff, and because there is a full moon, old stuff is being wrapped up and filed. Done (or will be soon). To know what the flavor of this business is, see where Taurus and Scorpio are in your chart. The north node (now in Taurus), is always giving us the “come hither” gesture, and drawing us away from the past as we learn our lessons. With Taurus, you are finding your value based on the Taurus placement in your chart.

So, like, destiny and fate. Cool cool… But that’s not all! Venus is Conjunct Mars on Wednesday too. This happens every couple of years for just a few days, and it gets astrologers all amped up because Mars and Venus are the OG “it” couple of the sky and it opens a window of creative and aligned energy that is always welcomed! We are getting extra doses of this alignment this year because of Venus’ retrograde and slow movement, and what a gift after so much awful turbulence here in humanity! There is a final one on March 6, 2022, and then the next one is February 22, 2024. (If you want to ponder how this affected you in previous years, here’s some dates: October 5, 2017, August 24, 2019, July 13, 2021.) You can actually see them together in the sky, and that always feels kind of magical. To see these
planets that we talk about is a special gift. Speaking of seeing, Venus got some hot photos taken of her. And she is hot…860°. Her thick atmosphere has prevented scientists from seeing her surface. But a special probe got some cool (actually very hot) drive by images of her and NASA is able to piece that together with existing radar and…she’s gorgeous. And molten.

But anyway…Venus conjunct Mars. There’s an alignment of masculine and feminine that asks us to find balance between drive and desire. Your heart and your willpower need to align. This is just one of the transits asking us to open our hearts. Find balance between doing and feeling. It's one thing to spend time with your vision board. Its another to take action steps toward those things. You may also experience a spiritual awakening at this time that is meant to draw your eyes to your destiny. It may feel like a crisis, actually, but its a signal to you that there’s an ending taking place so that a beginning can arrive. You must let go of what is in your hand so you can receive what the Universe wants to give you. It requires some faith and trust, depending on how hard you are hanging on to the thing currently in your hand. But the Universe always levels us UP. We don’t go backward. Even though sometimes life feels like Chutes and Ladders, we are always evolving forward.

AND THEN, there’s the Full Moon. This baby comes to us in Leo at 27° (uh, its my exact natal moon placement!) and it is at right there beaming its light at Venus and Mars and emphasizing that theme of passion and fulfillment and play and love and personal power and expression! Full moons illuminate what we couldn’t or didn’t see before. With all this talk of destiny and alignment, this full moon is lighting up our path forward and toward our higher calling. Leo is very heart centered and passionate. This is why it could be hard to let go of what we currently hold. But Leo invites us to play and to hope and believe. Leo also rules creativity and children. Do you even remember what it was like to be excited for something without any fear of disappointment? It's something to think about. Life experiences can cloud our beautiful, hopeful sense of wonder. And that would be a great thing to tap into this week, even if you’re only able to hold that energy for a moment.

There’s not much more I could say about this week. It’s a big one. A ritual of some kind would be a great idea this week. Put your crystals out under the moon. Conduct a little fire ceremony to let go of past stuff by writing it and burning it in the fire. Embrace your sexuality, vulnerability, and your power all at once (I’m not saying dress sexy for your ritual, but I’m sure not saying don’t!)

You could also use the following in your full moon ritual this week:

I am choosing to believe in beautiful things and receiving joy and love. I’m open to signs and new information about my next action steps. I’m ready to let go of the stuff in my past that holds me back and embrace what’s next. I am ready to feel passionate and inspired. I have faith that the Universe will bless me, so I open my heart and my hands to receive it, knowing that endings and beginnings are 2 halves of the same coin. I am confident in my future, and I’m hopeful for better times ahead.

(then rip off your bra and burn it. Haha. just kidding. Bras are expensive…so don’t do that. Unless its an underwire. Fuck those.)



Monday 14 February
Pluto trine North Node - your determination to reach goals, and intuitive instincts are strong
Mercury enters Aquarius - oh Lordy. So much air. So much thinking. So much thinking about odd things, thinking outside the box, saying random stuff. Also, detachment from emotions and a strong leaning into logic, which can help us move through areas we may have been stuck in due to emotional attachment.

Tuesday 15 February
Venus trine Psyche - past losses in love can be healed and can nurture current relationship issues
Mercury sextile Pallas - your intellect is strong and useful
Mars trine Psyche - wounded desire; the pain of wanting

Wednesday 16 February
Sun square North Node - confident about your path, but possibly complacent; anxiety about what to do now
Sun Square South Node - a situation or opportunity from the path has reached its culmination
Mercury trine Ceres - your words can comfort others
Venus conjunct Mars 16° Cap - the short story: balance of divine masculine and divine feminine; increased desire for relationship and connection; But there’s a much bigger story in the summary!
Full Moon 27° Leo - Culminations, endings, epiphanies, love, pleasure, self expression. What are you ‘holding’ in your hands right now, energetically? You may have to let that go to accept what will be handed to you in the wake of this lunar cycle. The word “destiny” is apropos!

Thursday 17 February
Jupiter sextile Uranus - eager for positive changes
Lilith sextile Eris - alignment of powerful and potentially dark feminine energies; watch your own behavior for bitterness, jealousy and manipulation. Use your powers for good!

Friday 18 February
Sun enters Pisces - We are all more dreamy, optimistic and compassionate

Saturday 19 February
Ceres sextile Pallas - you can attract supporters for your goals; others feel understood by you and are motivated to join you

Sunday 20 February
Sun square Ceres - your attempts at encouraging/nurturing could flop or be misinterpreted; more effort needed



ARIES - Leo, and hence this full moon, rules your 5th house of fun, romance, creativity and children. So this week, coupled or not, enjoy some of that good stuff. Your creative energy could really help you at work too, if you want it to. But this week, let’s not talk about the shoulds and obligations of life. Let’s take a fucking break and look at the sky, watch a movie that makes you happy, bake cookies, color with crayons…Crayons are highly undervalued!


TAURUS - The full moon lights up your house of home. And Mars and Venus are gettin’ it on in the backyard in your 9th house of adventure and exploration. Take a cue from them and kick up your relationship routine a bit. It doesn’t have to mean you cover your house in rose petals. But change things up and see what kind of spice you can shake loose.


GEMINI - This moon hits your 3rd house of communication. Your sign rules this house, so this could mean you have a busy mind (as always) or a busy schedule, or both. This week, pump the breaks when you are on your crazy auto pilot routine of self exhaustion. Sit the fuck down with a cup of tea, or take a bath. Take time this week to intentionally slow down so you can connect with the people you love, and, most importantly, yourself!


CANCER - The full moon lights up your house of earned money. So, you could get a raise, or you could realize that you work for an asshole who doesn’t appreciate you or pay you well, and have a life altering epiphany and decide to walk away. Trust that whatever this moon illuminates, your partner will be there for you, and so will the universe.


LEO - Well hello Dahling. Look at you, glowing in the light of your gorgeous full moon. Do a little spin for me…yesssss! You deserve the best, and sometimes that means leaving less than the best behind and moving ahead. You are likely starting on some kind of new project or mission, and it will require some changes to your daily life. But remember when it becomes annoying or difficult, that you deserve the best. Because we all do!


VIRGO - You are one of the hardest workers of the zodiac. But you are also a self sacrificing martyr at times who doesn’t know when to fucking quit. So sis, sit down. This full moon lights up your closet, otherwise known as your 12th house. Your unconscious and possibly limiting beliefs could come to the surface. Or your dream life might be revealing. One thing is certain…you need to rest. Actively rest, if that makes sense. And borrow some crayons from Aries.


LIBRA - As much as you love peace and quiet, at your core, you are probably an extrovert to some extent. And extroverts need people as their charging stations. You need to charge your batteries. This full moon lights up your house of BFFs, so call your girl friends and get your margaritas on. It will make things better at home when you have some personal balance.


SCORPIO - Well of all the zodiac, it is you this week that is hittin’ the career gold. The full moon illuminates your career house, so you could be recognized for your work, or promoted. Venus and Mars are in your 3rd house of communication, so if you are in publishing or writing, even better. But all work and no play make Scorpio a grumpy asshole, so take time this week to fill your personal cup as well.


SAGITTARIUS - You are called “Lucky” because you are ruled by Jupiter. I’ve seen the Sagittarian luck myself, and it is enviable. You could get paid to have adventures. Does that sound insane? It's possible right now! The moon is in your 9th house, which Sagittarius rules naturally, lighting up adventure and exploration and experience. Venus and Mars are sprinkling passion and motivation in your 2nd house of income…so…it could happen!


CAPRICORN - You should be feeling pretty confident right now, with Mars and Venus in your sign. The full moon lights up your 8th house of shared stuff. So you could either be enjoying some juicy intimacy with someone, or you could be enjoying some juicy interest rates from the bank, or an unexpected tax refund…something of that sort. Whatever the case, you’re entering a new cycle financially (a better one!) so pat yourself on the back!


AQUARIUS - Brace yourself, vulnerability ahead! (your favorite thing…not!) The full moon hits your partnership house, appreciation should flow nicely between you and your “other”. But where are Mars and Venus? Someone last saw them in the break room…uh oh….they are in your closet (the 12th house) making out, and they may help you uncover some deep truths, spiritual awakenings, etc. Your visions for your future may be arriving soon, and it may feel…weird. Enjoy the weirdness!


PISCES - Big changes often come from small changes. If you’ve been rethinking your daily routine, or how your house is decorated, or what you eat for breakfast, you’re on track. This moon illuminates your 6th house of habits and body stuff. Little changes can make a big difference in energy flow, so tweak some things. Mars and Venus are over at your friends’ house (11th house), so see if they can help you and make a party of it. You kinda need a party, so make up a reason to have one!

Boldly love your fucking self! BitchScopes for February 7-14

This poem by Sarah felt like it hit just right this week. Stay with me, Scopes are on wheels this week!




There have been times
that I have forgotten
who the hell
I was

I got distracted
sidelined
preoccupied
by life
by responsibilities
or falling in love
And of course, motherhood
All of them lovely
So lovely
just all of them pulling me away
Until
I've made little choices to pull back
In little moments
to come home

to celebrate this kind of love

there's no cake for this
no ring
no ceremony
there's no certificate to hang on the wall
or big announcement to post
except,
I suppose,
maybe this one

but she is here
yet she has always been here
not just partner or parent
but a beating heart
with thoughts that run wild
lightning bolts up her skin
A soul that is soft
and a belly that is too
though, I do love that
most times

she tried to be everything that she was
supposed to be
and it was everything she was not

what a ride
The kind of ride you take
and wonder what heck just happened
But you’re smiling so it
must be good,
Even the twists and turns.

Because in the end,
it all brings me here.

I won’t forget that.
I won’t forget her.


by Sarah Nicole Landry @thebirdspapaya


***********
I actually went and found that photo and poem of Sarah after I wrote all the scopes.  It just felt perfect.  I knew I had seen it and read it, so I just went and found it. I love her. 

This week you can take a chance and be more you. The real you, the freaky, geeky, whatever you are afraid people judge you about you. You might be surprised who resonates with you and maybe even applauds you. This authenticity can also help you get closer to your life purpose and bigger goals.  

There’s a lot written in the transits about Eros and Psyche and my take on that this week. You owe it to yourself to read it if you are struggling in unhealthy relationship cycles. This week I encourage you to really examine what you deserve in life and love. Why have you settled for and maybe even sought out less than that? Fear is at the root of all these things. This week, really take time to love the fuck out of yourself. Love your flaws and goofy quirks. Love your hair, your skin, your body and all its scars and flaws and abilities and what it get done for you every single day. Love your eyes and your mouth and your whole beautiful, unique face. Love your saggy, baggy parts, and your muscle-y, taut parts. Love your sense of humor, or intelligence, or kick ass skills. Love your ability to love, nurture, forgive. Love yourself in your moments of insanity, because that is human!

You deserve someone who recognizes and appreciates all those things in you.

I know it is possible because I found it, after I had been through all of the shit, people! All of it!

Get yourself some grocery store flowers and fill your room or kitchen with them. Make your house smell good. Shave your legs and change your sheets. Drink your favorite tea in silence. Condition your hair and exfoliate your feet in the shower. You are a badass Bitch/Bitchster and you are here for bigger reasons than what society has led you to believe. Open your heart and let your flag fly this week. Boldly love your fucking self!

The end. Love you.

Monday 7 February
  • Pallas sextile North Node - opportunities for leadership that aligns with your ideals

Tuesday 8 February
  • Mars trine Uranus - break free! Let your hair down and explore possibilities

Friday 11 February
  • Mercury conjunct Pluto - deep thinking and conversations
  • Mercury trine North Node - your thoughts and words have insight that can guide you to your bigger goals
  • Sun trine Lilith - your edgy side can find more acceptance than usual

Saturday 12 February
  • Sun sextile Eris - you can shed some layers and let your bitch flag fly

Sunday 13 February
  • Eros opposite Psyche - these are not asteroids I normally cover, simply because there are zillions of asteroids and only one me and one BitchScope. Eros and Psyche have a cyclical relationship of one conjunction and 3 oppositions. In reading about psyche, so much of my own love journey came up for me. I have talked before about Twin Flames and how I feel the term is often misused. Psyche embodies some of that vibe…of loving but never being able to “Have”.  Anyway I chose to highlight this this week because of its proximity to Valentine’s Day. Psyche is currently in Leo, where she deeply desires love, and ALL of it. Eros is currently in Aquarius, and is turned on by quirkiness and uniqueness. There is a dance happening, but the 2 people are dancing to different songs. (see footnotes!)

Monday 14 February
  • Pluto trine North Node - your determination to reach goals, and intuitive instincts are strong
  • Mercury enters Aquarius - oh Lordy. So much air. So much thinking. So much thinking about odd things, thinking outside the box, saying random stuff. Also, detachment from emotions and a strong leaning into logic, which can help us move through areas we may have been stuck in due to emotional attachment.


I am including my schedule and appointment availability for this week at the bottom of scopes. My hours and availability have been a little here and there, as I am trying to craft a life and schedule that works for me. If you want to connect, please just email me and we will discuss the how’s and what’s. Kelly@thebitchwhisperer.me


***********

ARIES - We’ve been talking a lot about your career lately. Let’s shift. In your life quest to be loved for your authentic self, don’t forget to actually know who your authentic self is. You tend to over value your abilities and physical presence and under value your intrinsic value as a human who is a gift by just existing. Seek out fun and joy this week, particularly with your friends and people who appreciate you. Do some personal accounting of your real value.



TAURUS - Your desire to put down roots, or deepen your roots is likely to be bumping in to your need to be seen and find an identity. Your identity is in the process of shifting, however, so you are probably feeling a little floaty and homeless. It’s temporary. Lean in to your family if you have some. If not, do some work in your physical home, either cleaning or decorating or organizing. It will feel strangely good and you might be surprised how it changes your feelings.



GEMINI - Your mind is likely to be very active this week. You are sharp, profound, coming up with all kinds of profound shit, and breaking through small barriers for yourself. Lots of learning and curiosity for you to explore this week, which can lead to things being unlocked in your deeper self and unconscious. This doesn’t really sound like great date night material, does it? If you are in a relationship or have to nurture other humans, you will need to keep your weird philosophical bender in check at times, lest your people roll their eyes at you harder than usual.


CANCER - Well you could have a potentially steamy week, Crabby. There’s lots of sensual and intimate stuff possible in your chart this week. If you are partnered, you may have different goals for the uh, interactions. You are likely to want sensuality and touch and your partner may want deep connection and vulnerability. Still sounds kinda fun to me. If you aren’t partnered, you may find some unexpected entertainment among your friends.


LEO - You should be feeling yourself pretty strongly. Which, I mean, you’re a leo so is that shocking? No. But this being in touch with yourself and what you desire is going to create a magnetism to others. Be conscious of who you let in this week (or who you sleep with.) Your public image is something to consider as well. Just be careful with your sexiness this week.


VIRGO - You are likely to feel sensitive this week, and possibly lonely on some level. You may feel dreamy and cloudy and a little lost. You could really benefit from a little disconnection (in a controlled way of course), but being such a body oriented sign, you will probably struggle. If you have substance addiction issues or escapism tendencies, red flag this week. Try a deep and soothing meditation to move in and out of your body energy as needed.


LIBRA - You’re bored and need some unexpected fun, some time with friends, and a little spice in your routine. Deep feelings and intimacy will be a present factor for you as well, and those are strange elements to incorporate together. Creativity is the order of the week. You need a fix of art, and beauty, and humanity. The deep feelings part of the equation will take care of itself after you fill your cup. Do you this week!


SCORPIO - You need to be seen this week. If you are in a relationship, go out for a nice dinner, or whatever is your couple vibe. Go where some people are (feels so strange to say that in the pandemic era!) and be among them and let yourself be seen. Show off a little If you’re single, dress up for work or school. Flaunt your sexiness. Not just because it is Valentine’s Day (bleh who cares), but because it says so in your chart!


SAGITTARIUS - You may find yourself in the role of teacher this week. This suits you well, and at this time, you may feel it is some kind of duty for you to help someone understand something. At the same time, you need your fix of adventure and spontaneity this week. That may be harder to come by, but I think you’ll find something to scratch your antsy itch.


CAPRICORN - This week may feel…awkward. Imagine that you’re going shopping, maybe with the peeps from Queer Eye. Tan picks out an outfit for you that feels way too sexy or loud or colorful and you feel very resistant to it. What is the worst that happens, really? You go out to dinner and you’re noticed? You are always noticed, you just aren’t always seeking it out. Live a little, play a little, step out of your spreadsheet comfort zone this week and sex it up, if for no one else but yourself.


AQUARIUS - This week feels so…you. As it should, being your season and all. Happy Birthday, by the way! There’s a cool detachment and air of mystery and genius and “je ne sais quoi” about you…more than usual; and others are drawn to it. You may not understand this magnetism, and it may feel like some people are just “too close” to you, in your space, or making you feel feely things, and Spock doesn’t really do feely things. Your home is your castle and your retreat. Just know that you are pretty fucking fabulous and others see it.


PISCES - You may feel like there is a heaviness and a duty or burden for you to love, this week. Love feels hard to grasp at times for you right now. Work on your personal boundaries and feeling just your own ‘stuff’ will really help. You are too porous at the moment. Writing down anything around this type of thing could lead to a good breakthrough. Be aware of substance and addiction issues if you’re triggered this week (not just because you’re Pisces, but because your 12th house is active right now). A sibling, cousin, or close neighbor friend may provide the escape you need from your own depths.

NOTE ON TWIN FLAMES 'N STUFF: 
If you have ever struggled with a Twin Flame relationship, or if you’re at all interesting in mythology, these are both excellent articles (they are older, so the placement of E and P are going to be incorrect, but the essence and meaning is there)

This is an area of Shadow Work that I specialize in. so if you have found yourself in a self defeating pattern of unworkable, unhaveable, passionate but terribly difficult relationships, I can help you break that cycle. I have been there! It was torture and if you can gain some understanding of your patterns, you mind will probably be blown. My shadow work sessions are not heavy and scary, because…it's me. I keep it light and conversational and exploratory. Hit me up if you are interested. This is an area I feel very passionately about.

Ridiculously Optimistic! BitchScopes for Feb 1 - 7

For the last couple years, I feel like I, and many many other astrologers, have been saying over and over “things are intense” or “things are challenging”. And I’ve joked with my astro colleagues about it. I wondered “are we just a bunch of jaded assholes now? Was there a time when things were not so damn intense? I don’t remember!”

But guess what? This year is going to be quite a bit less intense and problematic than the last couple. It will have its bumps and challenges of course, but this year is not defined by Saturn Square Uranus, so that’s a big help. The Capricorn stellium has been breaking up slowly, and that helps. And this week we have a stunning array of positive aspects and transits. So much so that I had to double check myself. Am I drunk? Did I read this correctly?

I was not drunk, and I did read it correctly! So take off your rose colored glasses, because you won’t need them this week!


Last week Venus stationed direct and she is slowly building up forward momentum so your financial and romantic life can make some progress. This week we have Mercury going direct in Capricorn, after a bassackward romp through Aquarius. We can start to feel more confident in our goals and plans, as well as our expressions.

There are no major transits on Wednesday 2/2, and I almost joked that you could take a nap that day. However…2/2/2022 is irresistible! The day of 2/2/2022 is a 1 vibration, which is about bold beginnings. And the month of February is an 8, which is a number of authority and power. First of all, the moon is in Pisces that day, which lends strong intuition all on its own. But the number 2 is also intuitive. This is the number of balance, partnerships, and cooperation. 2 is a feminine number that is associated with inclusivity and intuition, and also faith. The 2 correlates with the High Priestess in Tarot, who is powerful and intuitive, but her strength is quiet and doesn’t need a show. She doesn’t question what will come, she has faith in her position and in her instincts.

It would be silly for you to not take advantage of not only the new moon on Tuesday, but this powerful energy on Wednesday to as some kick to your manifesting activities and rituals.

Later in the week we have optimism and motivation, as well as increased personal power and recognition, along with opportunities for meaningful leadership.

How can it get any better than this?

If you’ve done any clearing work with me at 12Listen, you may have heard me suggest this phrase to you as a powerful transformation tool. It works, and if you use it regularly, you will see big shifts in your life for the better. When you find a dollar on the street, instead of saying “hmpf, I wish it was a hundred”, or “well it doesn’t get any better than this!” (which limits you to one dollar as the maximum surprise reward) say “woohoo! How can it get any better than this?” and leave the door open for even more pleasant surprises!

Last year was rough. This year is not going to be without its challenges. But let’s just revel in this week’s beautiful and positive energy as much as possible. Roll around in it. Swim in it until your fingers are wrinkly. And, congratulations on the fabulous things that you are about to attract into your life!

Tuesday 1 February 

New Moon in Aquarius (9:45pm 1/31 pst, 12:46am 2/1 est) - set intentions around friendships, group projects, and humanitarian efforts. Make a list of your hopes and dreams for this year, or the next 6 months. This is the Chinese New Year, the Year of the Water Tiger. Expect big changes and some volatility. Be bold and take big actions!

This moon does square Uranus, so be flexible and go with the flow when unexpected changes arise. But you may be able to exercise your rebellion and spicy ideals. If you feel bajiggity, that’s Uranus acting on your emotions. The good news: Venus trine Uranus can bring some spiciness and romance to your life, or perhaps some kind of bonus money.

Juno enters Aquarius - Juno rules marriage, and in Aquarius, she is more detached and independent.

Wednesday 2 February 

No major transits. However…the date 2/2/2022 is pretty juicy. Read the full summary for the whole scoop, but this is a strong vibration for feminine power.

Thursday 3 February 

Mercury Direct in Capricorn - Moon sextile Mercury offers calm confidence about expressing our thoughts…However…

Mercury square Eris - impulsive or rebellious speech, you may encounter resistance to your expressed ideals (just because you’re confident doesn’t mean the Patriarchy will like it)

Friday 4 February 

Mars sextile Jupiter - You feel strong, energized and optimistic.

Sun conjunct Saturn - Hard work is necessary, but it feels satisfying and you may also be recognized for your achievements.

Saturday 5 February 

Pluto sextile Pallas - Your natural skill set can be recognized, and you have opportunities for deep transformation (yourself and groups you interact with)

Sunday 6 February 

Mars square Chiron - Mars square Chiron - something can be triggering; take action to heal

Monday 7 February 

Pallas sextile North Node - opportunities for leadership that aligns with your ideals



ARIES - The area of your chart getting lots of love and luck has been, and continues to be, your public sector. This week it continues to gather energy, and the new moon happens in your house of hopes and dreams, friends, and associations. The public facing and social part of your life is on fire in a very good way. Take advantage of this time and set some intentions to grow your business and connections this week!


TAURUS - You are refining your beliefs and expanding your knowledge of the world and who you are in it. There’s a bit of a reinvention happening, or a coming of age (depending on how old you are). This new moon hits your house of career, reputation and ooooh, destiny. That’s a big word that I try not to throw around too much. But you probably are starting to feel a gentle tingle and pull towards something. Use this moon to set some intentions and manifest what you would like your life to look like!


GEMINI - You have been in the deep waters of intimacy for a couple years now, really learning more about yourself in how you deeply connect with others. This probably has you feeling pretty antsy and ready to go out and DO some stuff, rather than feel all the stuff. You’re ready to explore, expand, and connect to the world at large. Use this new moon to manifest that vacation or adventure you’re craving. The time will come sooner than you think.


CANCER - Your life will continue to be focused on your partnerships and intimate friendships for awhile. If there are changes you’d like to see happen in those relationships, this is a great opportunity to set intentions and manifest those things. Uranus may inspire you by way of making you feel a bit restless. It may be time for a little getaway with your significant other, or with your BFF, to just let off some steam and experience some new stuff.


LEO - If you’ve felt that your routine or work day schedule has been messed up lately, that should be getting better very soon. Consider making some small tweaks to your daily routine; even little changes can make a difference! Make sure you have a clear delineation between work and home so that you can be present with your family when you get there. This new moon gives you an invitation to manifest the kind of relationship (or professional partnerships) you really want


VIRGO - What does your ideal work day look like? Use this time to design a routine that really feels good to you. Make sure you make time for fun, laughter, romance, and play. That may mean forcing yourself to leave the office for a treat yourself lunch at least once a week, or going to the park on the way home from work and getting in the swings. Make your work environment a little more colorful or playful. Let the border between work and play blur just a little and see what happens.


LIBRA - This new moon invites you to play. Imagine what your life would look like with play incorporated on a regular basis, and then set intentions for that. Your kids or family should be a part of this plan, ideally. Or maybe your physical home needs a make over that adds color and warmth. It’s time to be creative about home and family. Even if you have to just start doing it by yourself, the energy of change will bring your family in around you and they’ll join in.


SCORPIO - If you’ve felt like you can’t get the words out right lately, that should be improving with Mercury direct. Your thought processes should gain clarity and you won’t have to work so hard to turn your thoughts into words. This will be important at home and with family. This new moon invites you to create the kind of home life that really makes you sing. That may be physical changes to your home, or changes in how you and your family function within it. This can be an ongoing project all year if you’d like. You won’t regret it!


SAGITTARIUS - If there’s been a hiccup in your finances, you can blame Mercury. Things should straighten out with Mercury direct. You are likely to see an income increase this year, if you haven’t had it happen already. Don’t get too lost in the dollar signs. Make smart investments for the long run. This new moon gives you a chance to learn something new, so whether its money, or another subject…dive in!


CAPRICORN - Mercury retrograde happened pretty much in your front yard. And while it may have brought necessary attention to some things, it can still be a pain in the ass. You’ve been pretty hammered the last few years, from all the heavy activity in your sign. But you know what makes all Caps happy? Money. And this new moon falls into your income sector. Set some intentions and manifest some money magic. Be careful about language that limits the possibilities and just believe in the magic of receiving. That should soothe your frazzled nerves.


AQUARIUS - Mercury dug through the closets and found some crap you thought you’d forgotten about. It probably is stuff you’d rather not think about, but it comes up for a reason. Learn from whatever this crap is and forgive either yourself or the other parties involved. This is important work because you’re in a period of redefining yourself. Who do you want to be in the world? This isn’t about how other people see you, but how you see yourself. Give it some thought and manifest it with this juicy new moon in your sign!


PISCES - If friendships have felt weird for the last few weeks, blame Mercury. The truth is that this area of your life has been undergoing some changes for awhile, and its probably time to move on from some of the connections you have. This new moon invites you to take a step back and reflect and heal. You may become aware of something just beneath the surface and will bug you until you pay attention to it. Do the shadow work, purge the unhealthy relationships, do the forgiveness. Listen to the quietly nagging whisper in your soul that wants you to follow a different path.
