Uranus and Saturn make a last gasp at competing with Neptune this week, before Neptune completely takes over the action in the zodiac near the end of the week. What a finish for Neptune…Moon, Venus (Neptune’s acolyte), Sun, Chiron, and Mars will all reside in the Pisces sign, along with Neptune, with the Sun’s ingress on February 18. Yet almost as soon as Neptune dominates the heavens, Mars moves into his home sign of Aries. Mars hates to be controlled! And undoubtedly Neptune’s watery, nebulous influence competing with him is no exception. Mars likes action, taking the initiative, and forging ahead with plenty of energy and fire, and what better sign to do so than in Aries? Additionally, perhaps Uranus regains a subtle ally in Mars. Electricity and fire clash with the endless diffuse fog of the watery Neptune.
What might this week portend for you? Consider your Sun sign and rising sign/ascendant as well.
Aries
A certain refreshing of energy and perhaps, purpose, emerges for you at the end of the week. February 19 can be a very productive day for you. Expanding or multiplying something as a result of past efforts is more likely at the end of the week. The beginning of the week also holds potential for fun with family and progress in cooperative ventures. February 15 and 16 are ideal days for projects that require great endurance…if you feel like you’re stuck somehow on those days, perhaps looking at problems from a different angle or seeking assistance will be of benefit. Relationships are a plus for you all week, but watch for renewed interest in going your own way at the end of the week. Just for Aries: considering how to mop up lingering details is a good idea this week.
Taurus
The theme of empathy, service, and spirituality continues for you this week. February 16 is a strong day for feelings of community and enjoying marriage and family. The end of the week becomes more intense, with more available energy for projects as part of a larger group. February 17 and 18 can also be productive days for your earthy, grounded Sun in Taurus. Watch for a sharp change in the feel of your relationships at the end of the week (which isn’t necessarily bad, in fact, relationships can be productive and a source of strength for you all week). Empathy and intuition tend to be better than average this week, also a continuing theme for you. Just for Taurus: sudden opportunities to connect with other people, perhaps to your benefit, are more prominent this week.
Gemini
Your Sun’s ruler, back at the beginning of Uranus’ sign, Aquarius, is direct again! As Mercury moves quickly, be aware of opportunities to expand and multiply your efforts that abruptly fade after the beginning of the week. Be aware of past issues possibly surfacing around February 15. Close relationships are a strong suit for you this week. Saturn’s restrictions also creep back into the picture for you, but this week can also be a time of productivity and career growth, for example, if you can assimilate Saturn’s demand for discipline and responsibility. Uranus’ influence is prominent for you for most of the week, so take advantage of his brilliant insights and heightened brainpower while you can. Just for Gemini: how can repetition and practice move you forward in your goals this week?
Cancer
The possibility of abundance in your life, especially with family and friends, starts the week for you. After the beginning of the week, much of the rest of the week is about work. The uneasy alliance between Saturn and Uranus until the Sun’s ingress into Pisces can be very productive for you, however, in regards to being a dynamic contributor at work. Pluto also chimes in a bit – how are you dealing with and adapting to changes in the workplace? A chance to rest and reflect enters the picture for you around February 18. February 18 and 19 can also be days of inspiration and a chance to work with the strong Neptunian energies in the heavens right now. The Jupiter influence at the beginning of the week repeats on February 17, so Jupiter’s expansion and good times have an influence in an otherwise largely work-centered week. Just for Cancer: how can you use your emotional base to increase your consciousness this week?
Leo
Just as with several other of the Sun signs, the beginning of the week is an opportunity to enjoy family and marriage. The burst of energy and connection to community at the beginning of the week quickly moves towards a very grounded and slowed down feel towards the middle of the week. The week’s theme of using technology and thinking forward suddenly turns very Neptunian on February 18. So the end of the week has a more spiritual and creative feel. Your emotional base is also strong on February 18, and navigating the nebulous Neptunian energy can be demanding and quite an abrupt shift, but your Leo Sun also has added opportunities to shine. Watch for chances to increase your influence and add to your accomplishments at the end of the week. Just for Leo: does someone have exactly what you need to complete something this week?
Virgo
The Mars-Saturn combination is influential for you this week. This adds an element of seriousness to the week for you. Doubtlessly, this can be very productive in work. Close relationships and a strong emotional base on February 16 and 17 can soften the week up for you a bit. Saturn offers a choice: will you become mired in various restrictions, or forge ahead by responding to authority and structure? Depending on your natal Mercury, you might feel some relief with your Sun’s ruler direct again. So this week can be very much about “back to normal” and using your sharp attention to detail to appease Saturn. Just for Virgo: no additional details for Virgo this week.
Libra
The empathy and spiritual harmony of Venus in Pisces continues as a theme for you this week. The balancing theme that is natural for you is also heightened this week. The idea of “spiritual community” is very strong for you on February 16. Feeling enervated or feeling a lack of progress is possible around February 18, otherwise this is not an overly active week for you. “Spiritual breakthrough” is possible at the end of the week. A feeling this week of a focus on the spiritual rather than the material. This can be to your advantage; what cycles are closing in your life and what is emerging for you as new? Reflecting and seeking answers within can be productive this week. Just for Libra: projects and activities this week might require extra effort to complete.
Scorpio
Jupiter’s influence becomes stronger for you as the week progresses. A sense of optimism and interest in personal growth is a theme for you this week. Uranus’ influence becomes less pronounced by the end of the week, but his demands for adapting to new situations and sudden changes remain all week. Great ideas and sudden insights are still possible, with effort, especially until February 17. Your emotional base is stronger around February 14 and 15, complementing your watery Sun, and it creates opportunities to connect with other people in an emotional manner. Sun entering the watery Pisces sign brings a more familiar vibe for your Scorpio Sun. Neptune’s creativity and spirituality become more influential by the end of the week. Just for Scorpio: How might your unique perspectives about an issue benefit you this week?
Sagittarius
Suddenly thinking of creative ideas is a strong theme for you this week, especially earlier in the week. You might also feel a bit rebellious or feel like wandering off the “main road” this week. This week is also about developing your personal power and changing parts of your life, if you so choose. The long standing theme of benefiting through close relationships is still present, although not so pronounced. Cooperative efforts requiring precise energy, tangible goals, and creativity (the creativity theme repeats for you this week) can be productive, especially from February 13 to 15. Watch for opportunities to network or connect with other people on February 17. Just for Sagittarius: finding a balance between listening and being heard might benefit you this week.
Capricorn
The change in the Sun’s sign perhaps affects you most out of all the signs this week. The first part of the week is about determination in reaching the finishing points in projects you’re currently working on. Your Capricorn Sun likes to initiate projects, but by the end of the week, the demands on you likely will be more about adapting to various situations and mopping up details. Saturn’s clear-cut, earthy groundedness that is so familiar to you will be quite in conflict with Neptune’s ethereal and transparent feel. Still, the opportunity to use both imagination – and logic – to prosper this week presents itself. Mars is also on your side by the end of the week, a chance to use your initiating skills even with Neptune’s nebulous boundaries and vagueness in prominence. Perhaps Neptune is telling all of us, and especially Capricorn, to have faith! Just for Capricorn: if you encounter puzzles and riddles this week, look both backwards and forwards to find a solution in the present.
Aquarius
The Sun leaves your sign by the end of the week. Still, most of the week has potential for you to express your gregariousness, unique qualities, and innovative ideas. With Mercury in your Sun’s sign, an air sign, logic and communicating ideas is a strong theme for you this week as well. Effort and care to deal with power struggles is likely more necessary than average, yet the opportunity to develop your perspectives and power is also pronounced. Self-development through the mind and with Jupiter’s abundance creates a nice theme for you this week. Neptune’s creativity combined with Uranus’ innovation should not be overlooked! Despite the difficulties, perhaps this combination has the greatest promise in terms of personal development for you. Just for Aquarius: a bit of extra assistance from the right person can help you reach your goals this week.
Pisces
Sun enters your sign again on February 18 and conjuncts your Sun’s ruler, Neptune. This can be a powerful week for you. Your awareness of how cycles end and events draw to a close is intensified this week. Even with the sadness and sense of loss sometimes associated with endings, February 18 and 19 give a glimpse of the satisfaction, achievement, and rewards that accompany a finished project or well-lived section of your life. So considering that type of idea at week’s end can be fruitful, and possibly bear the rewards of previous work. February 18 and 19 are also prime days for reflection on the past year for you, and determining how to proceed with the new one (starting with your pending solar return). Close relationships combined with structure this week can make it a fulfilling and productive week for you. Just for Pisces: How to start – or start fresh – with close relationships is something to consider this week.
