We begin our week with the calming energy of our waning moon. The moon wanes in Scorpio on Sunday until Monday morning, so this is a time for us to start tying up our loose ends. On Tuesday afternoon, the moon wanes in Sagittarius until early Thursday morning.
On Wednesday, Mars sextiles the sun, elevating our moods and sense of ambition. It’s a great day to ask for what you want and to be generous with others. On Friday, we will encounter not one, but two squares. Prepare yourself for the fragile energy when Venus squares Uranus and Mars squares Pluto. Both of these movements want change but have difficulty expressing how they want things done. If you can take anything away from these two squares, it would be to write your thoughts down and find the beauty in frustration. The moon wanes in strict Capricorn from Thursday morning until Saturday afternoon. Enjoy your last week of Mercury’s direct motion, and talk with others before he moves backward on 5th March.

Aries
March 21 to April 19
Be gentle with yourself this week, Aries. The moon, your personal planet of home and family, is waning through Scorpio until Monday morning. You may feel a little exposed at the beginning, so take a moment to relax when the moon is void-of-course from 7.13am to 4.19pm. Save your energy for Wednesday, when your ruling planet Mars will sextile the sun, your personal planetary ruler of creativity and entertainment. Learn how to create more enjoyment for yourself while these planets are aligned! The sun is currently illuminating your spiritual house this week, making pursuits of deeper meaning more palatable. Venus, Aries’ personal planet of love and money will square with Uranus on Friday, creating rifts around change with your relationships and cash. Tread lightly with your partner if you’re in a relationship. This is our last week of Mercury moving direct, so prepare yourself for his upcoming retrograde by getting your contracts and any loose ends tied up.

Taurus
April 20 to May 20
You could be spending the rest of the winter connecting with your friends on a new level, Taurus. Wednesday’s sun and Mars sextile is setting the stage for you to turn your home into a place for both spiritual and social connection. The sun helps to rule Taurus’ home and family zones, while Mars is responsible for spirituality. The sun spent the previous astrological month in your career sector, but his move into your friendship house will open up your social circle and bring attention to creating more meaningful connections. Work could feel unproductive on Friday when Venus will square against Uranus. Venus is Taurus’ planetary ruler of health and work, while Uranus is in charge of your sign’s career zone. If someone wants to make a significant change at work at the end of the week, try to steer their actions to begin at the beginning of next when you can follow through properly. Focus on communicating clearly this week, before our next Mercury in retrograde starts on 5th March!

Gemini
May 21 to June 20
Can you feel it, Gemini? Mercury in retrograde is coming, but not until next week. Spend your time using up his forward motion's energy like you’re squeezing out the rest of a toothpaste tube. Every bit counts! Hold off on making any significant decisions around cash on Monday while your financial planet, the moon is void of course. Any action made during this time is generally fruitless and better spent in a state of rest. If you’ve been waiting to make a big move at work, Wednesday is your day to act. Action planet Mars will sextile the sun, who is currently lighting up your 10th house of career and honours. When these two heavenly bodies are in this favourable position, it’s a windfall for luck. You’ve got to put out your feelers and make waves to be open to opportunities, as the universe doesn’t just hand these types of days out at all times. The sun will help maintain your focus on work, keeping your eyes on the prize. A Venus and Uranus square arrives on Friday, which might cause a cacophony of confusion around aesthetics and money. Try not to fall prey to any forced decisions while these two planets are opposing one another.

Cancer
June 21 to July 22
Take it slow on Monday, while your ruling planet is void-of-course. When the moon suggests that you take a break, you do it! Ambition without rest and reflection can turn your best intentions into wasted opportunities. You can speed up again on Wednesday, when the sun, your financial planet is sextile with Mars, Cancer’s personal career planet. This is a great day to take a look at your earning potential! Have you been working towards a raise or promotion? Make an appointment with your manager to sit down and talk numbers – bring the best of you to the table so that you can open yourself up to cosmic blessings! Try to learn as much as you can about your money this week as the sun illuminates your ninth house of philosophy and expansion. Keep a lookout for weird energy at home on Friday. Venus, Cancer’s personal planet of home and family squares against change-making Uranus. If someone in your household wants to start an impromptu renovation, calmly get them to put down their demolition plans. Stop any well-intentioned upgrades from becoming downgrades by talking about significant changes instead of acting on them.

Leo
July 23 to August 22
You’re ready for some significant changes as the sun illuminates your eighth house of sex, death and rebirth, Leo. Mars has been spending his time activating your 10th house of career this month, driving your actions toward creating progress. Lay the groundwork that you need to succeed on Wednesday when the sun conjoins with action planet Mars. Take advantage of this movement as it brings a new rush of energy to everything that you do. On Friday, a Venus and Uranus square could create tension in your work and romantic relationships.
If you’re in a relationship, try to leave work at home as you enter the weekend. Single? Try not to mix business with pleasure if you can avoid doing so. Mercury, your financial planet spends his last week moving direct before he enters retrograde next week. Use any free time that you have this week to get your money sorted out before it becomes a little stickier as of 5th March.

Virgo
August 23 to September 22
Relationships gain more importance as the sun began highlighting your seventh house last week, Virgo. If you’re partnered, Wednesday will be a day ripe for cosying up, as Mars and the sun sextile. The fiery red planet is responsible for Virgo’s sexuality, giving you the courage to make the first move in the bedroom. And single Virgos will feel a jolt of confidence that should be harnessed. Try to avoid conversations about cash on Friday, as a Venus-Uranus square can lend nervous energy to the discussion. Venus is Virgo’s planetary ruler of money, while Uranus rules health and work. Keep your focus on the bigger picture rather than smaller details as you enter the weekend. Mercury, your ruling and career planet will spend his last week moving directly before he goes retrograde on 5th March. Make a list of your goals that are more focused on maintenance to tackle during his upcoming backward motion.

Try not to let people get on your nerves at work — go with the flow. The sun highlights your sixth house of health and work this week, putting your attention on your personal wellness above all else. Tune into your spiritual side this week before Mercury, Libra’s planet of spirituality and good fortune goes retrograde next week on 5th March. Friday’s Pluto-Mars square could incite tough conversations about money with loved ones. Take a look at the facts before bringing anything up — you'll be sure to find comfort in truth.

Scorpio
October 23 to November 21
The moon wanes in your sign from Sunday until Monday morning, exposing your emotions to the world. If you’re not keen on opening up, take a page out of your fellow water sign Cancer’s book, and enjoy your home as a safe zone. You’ll be recharged on Wednesday when Mars and the sun form a sextile. Mars is Scorpio’s co-ruling planet, while the sun is your personal career planet. You could find a way to mix business with pleasure as the sun brightens up your fifth house of entertainment. Spend Wednesday dreaming up new ways to make your work life more enjoyable — you could be onto something big. If you’re in a relationship, prepare to have a serious chat with your partner on Friday. Venus, your planetary ruler of love, will square against Uranus, Scorpio’s personal planet of home and family. Your co-ruling planets, Pluto and Mars will also square against each other, creating confusion. So watch your tone while discussing any plans for big change to avoid bruised egos.

Save your ideas for next week.
