This week we gaze into the boiling fluids of the Water-Bearer’s bowl, scrying what futures we may be headed toward. Things get moving early in the week with a duo of powerful influences. Tuesday is host not only to the Full Moon in Leo, but also sets the table for Saturn’s retrograde station in Libra, loading up the early week with the uneasy mixture of Full Moon intensity and Saturnine heaviness. Tuesday night, Venus drags herself out of Pisces and enters Aries, where she’ll be heating the passions for the next several weeks. On Friday, Venus conjoins Uranus in the early degrees of Aries, seeding revolutionary excitement, sudden outbursts and emotional breakthroughs.
Saturn’s retrograde station comes early Tuesday morning. Saturn turns tail in the very last degree of Libra and will hike back all the way back to 22 degrees Libra, where the solemn planet eventually stations direct on June 24th. The retrograde station on February 7th wreathes the surrounding days in seriousness, and will likely coincide with difficult turns of fortune for those who have not brought sufficient equilibrium to their circumstances. It is a call to examine the trajectory of your choices and their consequences, a silent question as to whether the future you are building is the one you want to live within. This reassessing and rebuilding period will last until June 24th, when Saturn stations direct.
While Saturn calls us to examine the architecture of the futures we’re sliding toward, the 
Moon waxes its way toward Fullness in the Lion’s sign. Although the Moon will be at its fullest moment on Tuesday afternoon in the Western hemisphere, for all intents and purposes we’ll experience it both Monday and Tuesday nights.
The hot, personal Moon in Leo juxtaposes the distant, objective Aquarian Sun. The Sun in Aquarius emphasizes a detached, rational and rather cold concern with the patterns of human life, both individually and collectively. The Moon in Leo challenges this impersonal pondering with a surfeit of heartfelt energy. The intensity of these personal 
questions is reinforced by Mercury’s perfect conjunction with the Sun on Monday night. This kazimi brings Mercury’s thoughtful energy to the very core of concerns. The question is not just where things are going, but what role are you actively playing in the possibilities you glimpse. Who will you be in the stories unfolding around you? Protagonist or merely tree #3?
Tuesday night, beneath the hot silver of the Full Moon, Venus crawls out of Pisces’ ocean and once more enters the hot arena of Aries, where the Evening Star will be until March 5th. In Aries, Venus sets fire to the passions, triggering sudden connections, rowdy 
behavior and a taste for kinetic aesthetics. While Venus’ yearly pass through Aries can be a lot of fun, it does tend to kindle interpersonal conflicts. With Venus’ time in Aries coinciding entirely with Mars’s retrograde this year, there are likely to be more than a few sparks over the next several weeks.
On Thursday Venus conjoins Uranus in early Aries. This conjunction stimulates passions, triggering suppressed feelings and inflaming revolutionary zeal. It can be a very inspiring energy, but it’s the kind of fire which easily burns out of control. With the Moon also conjoined red, retrograde Mars in Thursday night’s sky, you may want to keep a fire extinguisher handy.
Horoscopes are not a real chart reading by an experienced astrologer. However, they are fun and can be reasonably accurate. In addition to referring to your Sun sign, read your from Ascendant and Moon if you know them. If you don’t, find out. I’m a long time fan of the free chart generation software at astro.com.
Oh, and if you’re still concerned that your sign has changed, get a little clarity here.

Wow the skilled execution of your Celestial understanding is Stunning
… The way you communicate imparts wisdom when most astrologers spend
their time describing knowledge or worse wrapping it with
pseudo-mysticism … both useless and deluded you bring the convolution
down to a watchable movie … Respekt ;]
