Time Out
Moon void of course: Every month the moon moves through the 12 signs of the zodiac, spending just over two days in each. As it does, it forms various relationships with other planetary bodies. Void of course begins when the moon stops engaging with another planetary body before moving onto the next sign. The moon’s influence is weakened while void of course, which can result in diminished success or satisfaction. Wait until the moon fuels up in a new sign before you do it, buy it, or say it. Timing is everything!

Aquarius
[Jan. 20–Feb. 18] The eclipses and Mars in Aquarius (Feb. 4–Mar. 14) fire you onto a new two-year chapter. A friendship could blossom into a romance or a lucrative business partnership. A sibling could factor in strongly now, too. Key action dates: Feb. 7–9, 16, 17.
Pisces [Feb. 19–March 20] The lunar eclipse can clue you in/expose you to more than you knew previously or thought was possible. New challenges keep you on your toes. Venus ignites vibrant financial or romantic prospects through June. Feb. 23 brings another layer, level, or chapter.
Aries [March 21–SApril 19] Attention-getting comes easily, thanks to attraction planet Venus in your sign for a longer-than-average stay. Now through the beginning of June, new inspirations set you on fire. New love, new social life, new creative enterprise—it’s all there for the taking!
Taurus [April 20–May 20] Eclipse season thrusts you into a new status quo, perhaps surprisingly so. A new reputation is growing, too. Responsibilities, negotiations, or parenting challenge your coping skills. Life may veer off or take off; to be sure, very little will remain the same. Don’t regret; reinvent instead.
Gemini [May 21–June 20] Something exceptional or surprising could occur around the lunar eclipse. Feb. 8–20 is exceptionally opportune for travel, teaching, performing, publishing, and study. Network, socialize, promote, connect, enter contests. Re: love or some other new prospect, Feb. 16–18 can be key launch-it or risk-it-all dates.
Cancer [June 21–July 22] A rollercoaster month lies ahead, especially re: finances and affairs of the heart. The lunar eclipse Feb. 9 can bring a sudden split or departure—it’s been brewing for some time. One door closes, another opens right behind it; Mars and Jupiter can re-inflame conflict/crisis or reignite passion Feb. 16–18.
Leo [July 23–Aug. 22] From one extreme to another, once it gets rolling, expect it to move along very quickly. In fact, an even keel can be near impossible. You are breaking into brand-new territory; trust your instincts, seize the moment, reinvent. Feb. 9–18 can be overwhelming. Feb. 16, 17, you could feel under attack.
Virgo [Aug. 23–Sep. 22] Nose to the grindstone, catch-up, or the new hunt takes all you have and then some. Study habits and health regimes may need a complete overhaul, too. Feb. 7–19 can bring sudden flare-ups, endings, beginnings, interruptions, repairs. Prospects/finances improve Feb. 22 onward.
Libra [Sep. 23–Oct. 22] Fuelling you with inspiration, confidence, sex appeal, and positive initiative, Mars, Jupiter, and the Sun are in optimum stellar position. Re: hot romance, a birth, a winning streak, or some other get-up-and-go, the stars are vibrant, Feb. 7–9, 16, 17.
Scorpio [Oct. 23–Nov. 21] February delivers a fresh-start month. Family circumstance, a home-based business, a change of residence, finances—the lunar eclipse brings a significant, perhaps sudden, change. Mid-month comes fast and furious, swinging you into full throttle.
Sagittarius [Nov. 22–Dec. 21]Watch for an important communiqué, a special event, a great opportunity, a contest, a windfall, or someone influential to fire you up around Feb. 8, 9. Now through June, Venus in Aries refreshes your love life, creativity, and vitality.
Capricorn [Dec. 22–Jan. 19] You are particularly resourceful now; put it to good use! Jump on instincts, try a new angle, move/move on, reinvent yourself and your finances. New capacities and talents prove that you have more than enough of what it takes. Key action dates: Feb. 5, 6, 8–12, 15–22.
