An itch or desire for personal freedom and yearning for something new or different may be pricking your brain. The Sun is now in "Freedom-Loving" Aquarius thru February 18th cultivating revolutionary concepts and visionary ideas. However, Venus in "Security-Conscious" Capricorn is dazzled by the Moon in "Hard-working" Virgo, keeping the focus on matters of the heart, but also on money and security. There may be a perplexing situation that involves a decision or sacrifice between maintaining personal security verses a desire for independence & the need to let go of someone or something. The Sun in Aquarius is encouraging: Group-think projects, independent thought, social engagements, a feeling of belonging, and a yearning for independence. Moreover, you may feel the need to broaden your horizons in career, routine habits, love-life, & career. Balance is key to future success. There may be a desire to kick-start or change-up your social scene or on the contrary, you may need to go solo for a while to cultivate your individuality and to make your contemporary ideas a success. Cutting-edge ideas and a unique perspective may take you to next level. Only you will know if bringing people in or shutting them out will help you achieve your goals. You can do well with group projects but also working independently under this influence. The ability to be alone for long periods of time, yet instantly becoming a social butterfly is what makes Aquarius the most unusual, peculiar and oftentimes the most misunderstood sign of the zodiac. Enhancing this universal energy, Mars, the power-house of physical vitality is in "Intellectual & Charming" Libra, joining the Aquarian Sun and "Mental" Mercury in the Air Signs. Your mental agilities should be razor sharp and your mind thinking about all sorts of things. While the Air signs can foster enlightenment, creativity, and visionary ideas, the Moon in Virgo and Venus in Capricorn, both earth signs, help to keep a healthy perspective and balance out the desire for freedom & independence and the need for security and the bottom-line!
Many of the the ideas over the next month will focus on what you want for the future. Some may seem out of reach, for now, however, intentions set in place now will echo throughout the year, particularly in the month of August. Therefore, if you work diligently toward your goals, (as long as they are realistic), you may come full circle in manifesting your desires and getting the positive outcome you seek. A sense of pride and accomplishment may be realized and an achievement award or public recognition may come your way.
