Astrology for week of 2/03-2/09
Monday 2/03 MOON DAY
Moon in Aries conjunct Chiron and square Mars in Cancer
Mercury in Aquarius disseminating trine to Jupiter rx in Gemini
Mars rx in Cancer first quarter square Chiron in Aries
Moon enters Taurus at 10:33pm EST
On this Moon Day we have an Aries Moon ruled by Mars rx in Cancer whose squaring off with Chiron in Aries today, it’s an emotional challenge. What does standing up for your emotional needs look like? Maybe it’s the courage to face the world and keep participating. Maybe it’s making decisions for ourselves that feel scary in the moment. Maybe it’s fighting against our emotional reactivity. We also have the Mercury/Jupiter trine today, be open to new perspective and changing your mind, clarity can be found in objectivity. All that being said today could be a emotional and mental whirlwind and the challenge is within our own emotional reactions and even expectations, be brave enough to face yourself today.
Tuesday 2/04 MARS DAY
Mars rx in Cancer at 19*
Venus enters Aries at 2:56am EST
Moon in Taurus square Pluto and then Mercury in Aquarius
Jupiter stations direct at 4:40pm at 11*17” of Gemini
As if yesterday wasn’t fiery enough we wake up this morning to Venus being in Aries. If Venus is how we feel and relate to ourselves and others, when Venus is in Aries it’s quite immature and self-focused. Adding in Mars transiting through Cancer, this is a time of coming face to face with our emotional immaturity and reactivity as well as learning to accept responsibility for our actions and our emotional states. With Jupiter stationing direct today it could intensify the mental restless energy and increase of communication/dialogue and even bring an excess of information, maybe you learn something new or find some clarity. Moon in Taurus, settle in the self-security to help embrace the challenges of the day.
Wednesday 2/05 MERCURY DAY
Mercury in Aquarius at 14*
Moon in Taurus square Sun in Aquarius, sextile Saturn in Pisces and Mars rx in Cancer, conjunct Uranus and sextile Neptune in Pisces
Sun in Aquarius balsamic semisextile to Saturn in Pisces
The most significant astrological configuration this week is the meeting of Neptune and the North Node in Pisces on Friday, but the energy has been actively present for a bit. In their balsamic phase it’s felt confusing, disillusioning, maybe you’ve felt stuck and hopeless, dealing with meaninglessness and fear of it all. It’s a call to healing and forgiveness, a deepening of faith and a process of finding more meaning in this human experience. It feels like the rugs being pulled out from under us, things are changing fast and we need to have faith that everything has a point and purpose AND with all the other astro stuff we need to be taking care of our emotional selves, Moon in Taurus currently we need to nurture our bodies. The Sun/Saturn aspect today we need to take responsibility and accountability for our lives. It being a Mercury Day and Mercury is in Aquarius currently, maybe today we can find some objectivity and detachment and see all the moving parts and maybe glimpse at how it’s all happening for our greatest good. As Mercury is currently ruling the South Node in Virgo, maybe today we can also refine and innovate some mental mapping and thought process that have been stuck, maybe we can find some clarity.
Thursday 2/06 JUPITER DAY
Jupiter in Gemini at 11*
Moon enters Gemini at 1:43am EST
Moon sextile Venus in Aries, trine Pluto in Aquarius and conjunct Jupiter in Gemini
Sun in Aquarius full phase quincunx to Mars rx in Cancer
Moon in Gemini, our brains our going trying to digest and process what is happening, trying to find reason and logic, giving names to emotions and issues. The inconjunct from Sun to Mars, our perseption shifting from what we need/what’s needed from us rather than what we want or how we’d like to be needed, it’s an adjustment aspect; Sun in Aquarius is actuating it’s purpose of liberation and rebellion from false constructs and prior conditioning and Mars in Cancer just wants to be safe and comfortable and taken care of, so there’s a obvious conflict inciting us to take action in taking accountability for our own emotional needs as well as a reminder we need to take care of each other as well, we’re all in this together. Where is your community? Jupiter Day, too much info being shoved at us, too many updates on these horrific current events. Protect your peace, reading every news article isn’t self care. Venus/Neptune/NorthNode is Pisces how can you cultivate more hope in this human experience, can you find faith that there’s a higher purpose and meaning to the chaos?

Venus in Aries at 2*
North Node and Neptune conjunct in Pisces
Venus in Aries crescent phase sextile to Pluto in Aquarius
Moon in Gemini trine Mercury in Aquarius, square Saturn in Pisces, trine Sun in Aquarius and sextile Chiron in Aries
As Venus travels through Aries we are self-orientated, focused on the immediacy of our feelings/needs/desires. We want to feel good and special and we want it now. We want the freedom of self-exploration and creative-actualization, to follow our inner fire wherever it leads us. As Venus is in the crescent phase sextile to Pluto in Aquarius today it could be making a decision on the desire to break free or break out of whatever situations you're feeling stuck in. It could be a feeling of courage and bravery to choose to continue on this uncertain path. It’s shifting to an inner instinctual awareness of how to progress in breaking out of old relationship patterns. Then we have the Conjunction of Neptune and the North Node in Pisces; faith, hope and love. You are not being punishing, life is unfurling in your favor and for your souls highest good, for societies greatest good. What a test of faith these current events are though. It is in these dark and scary times where miracles manifest. Where can you surrender and find more trust today?
