February 5 2017 We Live by the Sun Feel by the Moon Weekly Horoscope

General for Week Commencing: Monday 06 February 2017

Aries Monday 06 February 2017  Mar 21 - Apr 19 There is a big week in the skies this week and there is nothing bigger than Jupiter’s retrograde turn on Monday. Jupiter, the largest planet in the solar system is going to stop all traffic in its way, putting a red light at the start of the week for most of us. This doesn’t mean things will stay stalled, but while Jupiter is on the turn, everything gets out of his way. Even by midweek, settled into his retrograde phase Jupiter will be a different planet. In retrograde motion in your relationship sector until early Jupiter, this opens the doors to the past and second chances. The week will end with the Sun and Jupiter, the two largest bodies in the solar system linked, creating some auspicious conditions for friendship and relationship building. From the get go make sure the communication lines are open, especially on the relationship front.      Taurus Monday 06 February 2017  Apr 20 - May 20 Yes, there is a lot going on this week and some very powerful planets and cosmic events in play. For you this week is personal, for you finally get your very own support system. It was during the Moon’s final hours in Taurus over the weekend that Ceres returned, making her the first planet here since, well since she retrograded back out in October. After three months in Taurus Ceres, dwarf planet and goddess of the solar system put things on hold. On a mission to get to the heart of your own needs and priorities, Ceres rightly guessed that with no other planets coming along and no backup, the timing wasn’t right. Ceres promised she would return just before new doors were due to start opening. Her return then can only mean one thing, new doors are about to open. Mars won’t return to Taurus until early next month, but preparations have just begun.      Gemini Monday 06 February 2017  May 21 - Jun 21 Even if Venus and Mars hadn’t left your career sector over the last two weeks, Venus just over the weekend, they too would have been stopped in their tracks by Jupiter’s retrograde turn on Monday. For weeks now, both because he has been slowing down and before there has been so much else going on, lucky Jupiter has been forgotten. Yet turning retrograde in a fun, playful, romantic and creatively charged part of your chart on Monday, that is about to change. While this opens the doors to the past and second chances, it is Jupiter’s actual turn that makes everything else temporarily stop. This comes just as Venus is spending her first full week in a social and serendipitous part of your chart. While there is no danger of your professional game going off the boil, life itself is starting to fight back.      Cancer Monday 06 February 2017  Jun 22 - Jul 22 While this week might seem to come from out of nowhere, in reality an explosion of activity across the income, work and career fronts has been slowly building for some time. Okay, maybe not the income opportunities, but then the weekend’s lunar eclipse in your income sector will be this year’s first real wildcard. It’s on the work and career fronts that things have been slowly coming together, with Venus’ return to your career sector over the weekend bringing everything to a tipping point. For the first time in nearly two years Venus and Mars have met up in your career sector and for just the second time in three decades, it is with the support of Saturn in your work sector. While you may still be catching up, either on work or sleep in the early part of the week, expect to come alive by midweek.      Leo Monday 06 February 2017  Jul 23 - Aug 22 This is the week there is a division within the solar system, where a few planets are making a big noise and other, more subtle planets are banding together to work their magic behind the scenes. Those noisy planets are Jupiter, Venus and Mars, the glamour planets of the solar system. Jupiter will grab our attention with his retrograde turn on Monday, yet apart from slowing things down this is good news for you. Jupiter’s retrograde turn will open the doors to the past and second chances on the communication front, with a chance to give the past and unsaid words a voice. The timing couldn’t be better, with Jupiter immediately moving into support your relationships. This will be especially evident during a lunar eclipse over the weekend that could put pressure on your relationships.      Virgo Monday 06 February 2017  Aug 23 - Sep 22 Venus and Mars, spending their first full week together in your financial sector in two years, won’t even try and compete with Jupiter in the early part of the week. Jupiter’s retrograde turn in your income sector is not just the event of the week, but one of the major events of 2017. This not only opens the doors to the past and second chances on the income front, but sets the scene for some fairly intense financial dynamics later in the month. To start with Jupiter is working closely with the Sun, just as Mercury returns to finally bring things up to speed on the work front. By midweek Venus and Mars will lose their patience and with Jupiter settled into his retrograde phase will demand at least some of the focus shifts back to money matters. Here there is a lot to get excited about.      Libra Monday 06 February 2017  Sep 23 - Oct 23 Just as Venus and Mars come together to create some stunning developments on the relationship front, Jupiter’s retrograde turn in Libra on Monday thrusts your own needs onto centre stage. At this stage this won’t be a problem, but later in the month there could be more active competition between your personal and relationship needs. Yet with Venus, planet of love and guardian of your relationships not just taking your relationships under her wing for the next few weeks, but the majority of the next four months, then this is made to work to your advantage. While Venus is seen to be backing your relationships, as your ruling planet she will always have your back. Another planet who has your back is Saturn, helping to keep the communication lines open from the get go. Even the Sun is in your camp, bringing a fun and even romantic charge to the week.      Scorpio Monday 06 February 2017  Oct 24 - Nov 21 Don’t be put off by conditions at the start of the week, for it is simply a case of Jupiter choosing the wrong time to turn retrograde. Or at least that’s how Venus and Mars will see it, champing at the bit to get things moving on the work front. This is the first time Venus and Mars have met up in your work sector in nearly two years and they’re ready to hit the ground running from Day 1. The problem is that Jupiter is not only turning retrograde on Monday, but in a nostalgic part of your chart. The largest planet in the solar system will be making a U turn in slow motion. Once retrograde this won’t have too much impact, other than a need for time to hear yourself think every now and then. By the weekend, a lunar eclipse in your career sector will be helping Venus and Mars to jump start things on the work front.      Sagittarius Monday 06 February 2017  Nov 22 - Dec 21 There are two different camps in play this week and on paper they should be at odds with each other, creating conflicts and friction. Yet while one is loud and brash the other is quiet and subtle. You know what they say about the quiet ones. Three forces, in three different areas of your chart are fielding what can be described as the minor league. These are cosmic forces that are game changing, they’re not going to alter the course of the week or drag attention away from anything else. That’s why Venus and Mars, in this first full week in a playful and romantic part of your chart and a lunar eclipse in an adventurous part of your chart, won’t be threatened by them. They probably won’t even notice them. Yet behind the scenes, income, work and career forces are putting some very nice building blocks into play.      Capricorn Monday 06 February 2017  Dec 22 - Jan 19 Jupiter has been slowing down in your career sector for weeks, so it will be no surprise that things have come to a complete stop. Jupiter’s retrograde turn on Monday is going to stop everything and not just professionally, but only during his turnaround. Once retrograde, Jupiter will spend the next four months holding the doors open to the past, second chances and untapped potential. Even as Jupiter turns retrograde there is support. The week will start with support from the Moon in your work sector, ensuring your antennas are tuned as the tide turns on the career front. The week will end with the Sun and Jupiter in a friendly aspect, Jupiter holding the doors open to the past on the career front, while the Sun reveals new income opportunities. Meanwhile, Mercury finally leaves Capricorn on Tuesday, putting the finishing touches on your game plan for this new solar year.      Aquarius Monday 06 February 2017  Jan 20 - Feb 18 Your new solar year finally gets the green light or at least it will once Mercury finally returns to Aquarius on Tuesday. And not a moment too soon, for with the Sun leaving and your birthday month ending at the end of next week, you’re running out of time. Mercury is the planet that gives you the intellectually savvy edge needed to create your game plan and resolutions for the coming year. Venus and Mars have already moved through Aquarius. Mars left just before Christmas and Venus in the New Year. Their focus was on the ‘what’ and the ‘why’. So you began the year knowing what you wanted and what excited you, you just needed your birthday month and new solar year to get underway. The Sun is focused on ‘what is’ and since returning it has been all about an authentic starting point. Finally Mercury returns to help you figure out the ‘when, where and how’.      Pisces Monday 06 February 2017  Feb 19 - Mar 20 Jupiter’s retrograde turn in your financial sector on Monday is no threat to Venus and Mars’ early days in your income sector, other than this could stop everything in its tracks. Later in the month there could be some friction between income and financial forces, but if you can start by working with both it won’t be a problem. Jupiter, focused on money matters as a whole, is taking the road already travelled. His retrograde turn will open the doors to the past, second chances and untapped potential. This is a major financial review that will run through to early June. Venus and Mars are focused on new income opportunities and their focus is on the road that has yet to be travelled. As long as they stick on their own side of the road there won’t be a problem. Unexpected work developments will give income opportunities a kick start, especially in the later part of the week.
