February 2025
The airy Aquarius Sun until the 18th will promote vigorous discussions with alternative viewpoints keeping the mood lively. Aquarius is a multi-faceted sign, more so than most – forward-looking and interested in the past, tolerant of difference and stubborn, keen on fairness and overly rigid in attitude. All of these will be in display with Jupiter lending enthusiasm as it goes direct to debates with a smidgeon of luck; and Uranus before midmonth accentuating the unconventional and rebellious.
Venus moving into upfront Aries will be socially enlivening, not a time to hold back on voicing wishes or expressing feelings. After midmonth a gradual switch into sensitive, emotionally self-protective, dreamy and evasive Pisces will soften the mood.
Mars continuing to move through excitable Cancer will create a volatile, defensive and at times over reactive mood.
