Last month, on January 29, the New Moon occurred in an Aquarius, And this lunation affects the first weeks of February 2025. This energy inspires us to make a clean break or “fresh start.” We awaken our minds to the need for a vision, socialize and brainstorm, express feelings of friendship, and develop more objectivity in our lives. We are determined to start fresh. In the sign of Aquarius, friendship, brotherhood, group activities, social pursuits, group projects, trying something new, humanitarian endeavors, or joining a group are a strong focus.
On February 4, Jupiter stations and turns direct After retrograde motion from October 9, 2024. This change of direction may mark a turn of the corner for some projects and relationships. It’s also about our attitude and perspective – we feel energized. With Jupiter direct, our confidence is building in ourselves, our beliefs, and the universe. We are more luminous and ready to share ourselves and what we have learned with others. Our dreams and goals are in focus, and they’re moving along!
On February 7, Neptune aligns with the Moon’s right nodeThe Moon’s North Node entered Pisces last month and now forms a conjunction with Neptune. We are learning to have more faith or trust in a bigger plan. Our path is to develop our love for ourselves and others through increasing our compassion and understanding. It is time to learn more humility as we recognize that we (and others) are not perfect and they do not have to be. This may be a time that emphasizes spiritual community. We are in tune with current social trends and vibes.
On February 12, a full moon occurs in the sign of Leo.This lunation reminds us of needs we are putting to the side – there may be an urgent or sudden need/desire to express ourselves around this lunation. We are more powerfully aware of our creative, romantic, and expressive urges. Something is exposed or enlightened, prompting us to get in touch with things in our personal lives that we have been neglecting or putting aside. This Leo Moon is proudly and intensely personal.
On February 23, Mars turns stations and direct Following retrograde motion since December 6, 2024. Slowly but surely, our ability to assert ourselves increases in confidence and effect change. We begin to rebuild our enthusiasm, the projects that have moved forward, and we feel more confident and assertive. Mars will leave its post-retrograde shadow on May 2, 2025. This retrograde Mars cycle began in the sign of Leo, but Mars returned to the sign of Cancer on January 6.
By February 23rd, we may experience simmering anger, making it difficult to find direct and healthy expressions or outlets for frustrations. We can take our time to reach our goals. If we move impulsively in any way, we run into problems, obstacles, and frustrations. Cancer rules our inner foundations as well as the outer houses, domestic affairs, and relationships with family. As such, we may need to re-evaluate our approach to our home life. We are apt to feel some frustration or anxiety regarding our basic sense of comfort and security—our roots—and regarding the development of our domestic affairs. Health issues can be a factor (especially in areas ruled by Cancer, including the stomach), and are a possibility during Mars retrograde periods.
On February 27, the New Moon is in Pisces, A new beginning and inspiring us to start fresh. We awaken to a spiritual vision or need for more magic in our lives. This is a time to revitalize ourselves through experiences that require imagination, compassion, gentleness, or that simply represent a “break” from the routine. We can put something behind us to start fresh.
