Sunday 2 February 2025

Wake up to a day with vibrant and dynamic qualities, where creative and utilitarian thinking (“what can be done with this?”) will be welcomed. There is an opportunity to lead the way with a get-things-done attitude. Make sure you get outside into the clear air today, as making movement and exercise is perfect for helping the consciousness flow and the feeling you are moving in the right direction with motivation. This afternoon is perfect for connecting, networking, and expressing your intelligence and originality. This evening can well be a pleasant and optimistic time, as long as you are moving forward with your plans; theres a spark of luck and chance in the air, so take it if you sense it, and promote, create, and perform – or at least celebrate and have fun. And into late evening recognize how two brains know more than one, and teamwork thrives.

Monday 3 February 2025

This morning it’s very easy to take action over one’s feelings; hopefully, you’ll put a double-check in place so that things aren’t too hasty or uncontrolled. Generally speaking, you’re continuing the plan that’s already started to take shape since the new moon. Be wary of heated responses and reactions – don’t send your troops in the wrong direction. This evening can contain strongly self-orientated emotional exaggerations – it’s the perfect circumstance for a big idea that’s all about being comfortable yet is maybe a bit too demanding. Spacious thinking is often what happens when one feels the need to roam afield or go on a search.

As the moon now lands in the sensual and pleasure-loving sign of Taurus, then you are likely to become more focused on your needs and less likely to scatter your energy around. Lucky planet Jupiter starts moving forward after 5 months of reverse maneuvering. Jupiter has been in the air sign Gemini since May 2024 which isn’t its favourite place: it feels like it’s in exile, because Gemini likes facts, figures and logic, whereas Jupiter prefers a big picture or philosophy, and plenty of space to view the horizon. This resulted in a still-developing theme potentially revolving around questioning, doubting, and cynicism. You might have been experimenting with opportunities and trying out different expansive ideas, even if it’s just once. this will carry on until June 10, so learn to manage those impulses. Also today Venus planet of love and relationships changes sign into Aries, whereby she becomes more of a huntress and a go-getter. Being direct (but not pushy) can land you in love and something beautifully valued which could set you up for an eight-year cycle. More on this later.. 

Wednesday 5 February 2025

Looking up to the sky, you’ll see a half-moon growing in light. This is the ‘first quarter’. It means a dynamic and enterprising time of progress and tangible achievement: think how you can increase and develop what has already been started. It’s now all about stabilizing and firming up with sustainable solidity. Early morning dwell on long-term plans and durability; from late morning through to lunchtime, consider an action plan that moves it all forward. By this evening, you’ll be feeling it’s either going to be a break-out or a break-through that you need to be doing: theres a universal purpose that you can make into something, but you must make sure your will is strong, and not to listen to critical opinions that can change your method.

Thursday 6 February 2025

A rapid uptake of feelings linked to information signals that the moon has entered quick-witted Gemini this morning. If there’s a restlessness feeling, be sure to turn it into eagerness! Reach out to your good connections this morning, and explain what you’ve got planned. You’ll notice that theres a lively and quite fun mood to all proceedings, so make the most of it! Real power for the future can be talked about up until 11:30 am, but then tone things down a bit for the early afternoon, because being too pushy or direct might not get the reaction you want. Later into the evening, and the ideas are plentiful, almost too many. Might be best to write them down, for reflection on later. You can’t do everything at once, so its best to realize that one or two well-focused intentions are the way to go.

Friday 7 February 2025

Venus the planet of relating is positioning herself into the driving seat- if you were the commander in charge of a brand new rocket-to-the-future, how would you issue directives whilst still allowing for harmony? Remember to give everyone their space, and you’ll be able to negotiate something very clever for yourself. Whatever’s being discussed in the early afternoon means letting go of the old method, and allowing for flexibility and adaptive change. That is a challenge for some to do, but when they do, a whole new vista opens up, and everything that has been put on the table over the last week starts to make real sense and becomes nicely acceptable. Words will glow with the gold of sunshine, and the potential will affect many people positively. This is because you have a ‘knowing’ that you are on the right path. 

Saturday 8 February 2025

Look for that almost tangible shift of energy as the Moon enters a watery and emotional rockpool of gently swirling waters where she awaits the next high tide. For sure the last few days have seen huge concepts, airy breezes that carry the future with communicative ideas, and intelligent aspirations that can change the world. All marvellous. But after that, how about settling back into calmer waters of self-reflection and inward contemplations? In the early afternoon, it can be quite the ‘give me my space’ or ‘leave me alone’ especially if theres been considerable outgoing activity, then the natural response will be to take cover, take shelter, and go a bit quieter whilst you work out your next moves. So read your people well, don’t push them to ‘keep on’ when sensitivity is the priority, be compassionate, empathic, and allow for comfort instead of continuous impersonal directives.

If your birthday, a friend or family member's special day is on one of these dates...
