After a rocky start to the year, with three planets retrograde—including MARS, which left this writer neck-deep in work and never-ending errands—we are now back on track, with our magnifying glasses and Sherlock hats, looking into what this month has to offer.
January may have felt like it dragged on and on, and then abruplty, it was gone. February feels a little different, dear reader, as the month ahead truly brings the new year shift we’ve been waiting for!

The month begins with soft, dreamy, energy courtesy of a sweet VENUS-NEPTUNE conjunction in the first few days of February, fresh from the festivities of the Lunar New Year. It’s great to utilize this energy in preparation for Valentine’s day, dear reader! This brings romantic, creative, and compassionate energy, making it a perfect time for cultivating deep connections, combined with artistic inspiration! It’s also an invitation to trust and embrace the beauty in the moment, before the pace considerably picks up!

Planets turning Direct

And then, at long last, we start moving. Two planets finally turn direct, dear reader, clearing up delays and allowing for real progress! After about 4 months, JUPITER, the planet of expansion, luck, and abundance, shakes off his retrograde in the first week, giving us a much-needed push forward. Luck should start working well again, wherever this happens in our charts. If things have felt stagnant, expect doors to start opening and opportunities to gain momentum!

Then, just as we settle into this new rhythm, the cosmos push things further – after about 2 months, MARS finally turns direct toward the end of the month, reigniting action, drive, and momentum. The frustrating sense of being stuck, second-guessing, or running in circles? It starts to dissolve as clarity and determination take over. Delays lift, energy returns, and forward movement feels natural again, finally!
The month doesn’t just end with movement, dear reader—it ends with sharp focus and serious thinking. As MERCURY and SATURN align, conversations take on a weightier tone, decisions become more structured, and there’s a need for precision in words and actions. This is a time for strategic planning, long-term commitments, and cutting through distractions with a no-nonsense approach. Hesitation fades, replaced by a drive to get things in order, clarify responsibilities, and solidify plans that truly matter.
While this energy is excellent for discipline and perseverance, it can also weigh heavily if overanalyzed! Use this time wisely—refine, structure, and set a foundation for lasting success, but make sure not to let temporary challenges cloud long-term vision!
With all that being said, it’s time to get ready, dear reader: by the time February closes, we’re no longer waiting for things to happen—we’re making them happen!
