Feeling the squeeze? Mars has been in Aries since January 28, a bold placement for the planet of action and determination. But this week Mars squares off with Pluto and rendezvous with Uranus. This is pressure cooker astrology. Try not to blow.

Welcome to Pisces Season! We’re swimming our way through the last of the astrological year. Pisces is the final sign, two fishes swimming in different directions. In Pisces, we take the totality of our consciousness and return it for the benefit of spirit or matter.

As I mentioned in yesterday’s update, we’re coming up to a prickly stretch of astrology as Mars in Aries makes aspects to Pluto and Uranus. Today’s Scorpio Moon is activating this energy and it may be manifesting as emotional outbursts and flashes of rage.

The Moon is in Scorpio today! With Mars in Aries, we may feel like we want to take action, start fresh. After all, Aries is the first sign of the zodiac, one that speaks to new beginnings. But we may be hitting on a deeply sensitive point as a result.

We’re still rolling along with a Libra Moon today. Pair that with an Aquarius Sun and we’ll be focusing on friends, community, and social interactions. Since Libra and Aquarius are both air signs, there’ll be a strong need to communicate and connect as well.

We’ve got a spicy Libra Moon on serve for Valentine’s Day! Normally Libra is anything but. In fact Libra’s known for sweetness and charm. But if you toss in aspects to Mars and Pluto, this could be a V-Day filled with breakthroughs — as well as facing facts.

As I mentioned on Friday, we’re in eclipse season, a time roughly twice a year, when life switch gears. The energy around eclipses tend to be intense, filled with insights. Events move quickly and suddenly. Eclipses are like a clock striking a new hour.

Feeling on edge? Not only do we have a full moon tomorrow, a time when emotional energy is heightened, but we’re coming up to a Leo lunar eclipse as well. Something has to give, something has to shift. We have to be brave, bold, and true to ourselves.

The Sun may be in Aquarius, but the Moon is in Cancer today. On paper, Aquarius and Cancer don’t have much in common. Cancer is home, family while Aquarius stretches out into the intellectual, impersonal. But both signs are about connection — if in different ways.

Mercury, the planet of communication and movement, is finally in Aquarius! If Capricorn pushes Mercury to seriously weigh its choices, then in Aquarius it sees the big picture. Mercury in Aquarius is intellectual, futuristic, and scientific, too. It also blazes a trail.

We’ve got an airy start to the week. As the Moon rounds out its time in Gemini, it’s picking up support from the Sun and Jupiter. We’re chatty, busy, social, and thinking big. But Mercury is coming up to 29 Capricorn; we’ve got some big things to figure out today.

Venus, the planet of peace, cooperation, and beauty, moves into Aries today. Truthfully Venus isn’t at home in Aries, a sign where it has to learn to assert itself. It’s also less likely to find common ground, something the world needs right now.
