February 2025 Astrology Transits

The astrology of February...

begins with a dreamy conjunction between Venus and Neptune in Pisces. Two of the more idealistic planets (both happy here in Pisces) give us a much needed breath of fresh air. Unlike January, the astrology of February is a mix of tension and release when it comes to how the planets are speaking to one another. Use this month as a resting place, if you will, as the rest of the early part of the year ramps back up.

January 31-February 2: Venus Conjunct Neptune, applying conjunction to North Node in Pisces

• Theme: Romantic dreams and soulful alignment.

• Insight: This dreamy conjunction amplifies love, beauty, and artistic expression, with the North Node adding a sense of destiny or karmic significance. Emotions run deep, intuition is heightened, and connections—both creative and personal—may feel fated or profoundly meaningful.

• Suggestion: Enjoy the magic, but stay mindful of illusions in relationships and when it comes to what you value. Channel this energy into creative projects, meditation, or spiritual practices that feel aligned with your growth and purpose.

February 4: Venus Enters Aries, Jupiter Direct in Gemini

• Theme: Bold confidence and forward momentum.

• Insight: Venus in Aries brings fiery passion and directness to your relationships and values, while Jupiter stationing direct after months of retrograde restores a sense of optimism and expansion.

• Suggestion: Take initiative in relationships and in pursuit of personal goals. Trust that clarity is coming back, making it a great time to start fresh and embrace new opportunities.

February 6-8: Venus in Aries Sextile Pluto in Aquarius

• Theme: Magnetic attraction and deep connections.

• Insight: This transit intensifies desires and deepens relationships, helping you step into your power when it comes to love, money, and your values.

• Suggestion: Use this energy to strengthen authentic connections and pursue goals with confidence. Lean into transformative experiences that might arise.

February 6-12: Mars in Cancer Trine Saturn in Pisces

• Theme: Steady action and emotional discipline.

• Insight: Mars retrograde in Cancer working harmoniously with Saturn in Pisces supports slow but meaningful progress, especially in personal and emotional matters. You might still be feeling frustrated with how slow you feel things are going, but Saturn is here to remind you that slow and steady is almost always better than quick and erratic.

• Suggestion: Be patient with yourself and others. Focus on consistency over speed, knowing that the groundwork you lay now will pay off later.

February 7: Neptune Conjunct North Node in Pisces

• Theme: Spiritual destiny and surrender to the unknown.

• Insight: This rare conjunction invites you to trust in divine timing and embrace a higher path, even if it’s unclear at the moment. Dreams, intuition, and synchronicities may guide you during this time.

• Suggestion: Pay attention to inner nudges and signs from the universe. Meditate, journal, or engage in spiritual practices to align with your soul’s journey.

February 11-12: Sun in Aquarius Square Uranus in Taurus

• Theme: Unpredictable shifts and personal breakthroughs.

• Insight: This square can shake things up, bringing unexpected changes that push you out of your comfort zone, especially as it relates to values, relationships and finances. It’s an energy of disruption, but also innovation.

• Suggestion: Stay flexible and open-minded. If something unexpected arises, ask yourself how it might be redirecting you toward growth.

February 12: Full Moon in Leo

• Theme: Expression, recognition, and creative fulfillment.

• Insight: The Leo Full Moon shines a light on self-expression, leadership, and the courage to be seen. With a tense T-square to Uranus in Taurus, unexpected shifts or emotional breakthroughs may push you out of your comfort zone, challenging you to embrace authenticity in new and surprising ways.

• Suggestion: Celebrate your wins and practice releasing self-doubt. Stay open to change, even if it feels uncomfortable; it could be the boost you need to break free from old patterns and step fully into your power.

February 14: Mercury Enters Pisces

• Theme: Intuitive communication and dreamy thinking.

• Insight: Mercury in Pisces shifts our mental focus toward intuition, imagination, and emotional expression, making logic feel less linear.

• Suggestion: Don't think too hard; allow yourself to trust your instincts. Journaling, poetry, and deep conversations can be especially meaningful during this transit, especially right before Mercury enters its retrograde shadow.

February 18: Pisces Season Begins

• Theme: Emotional depth and spiritual renewal.

• Insight: As the Sun enters Pisces, our collective energy turns inward; favoring introspection, compassion, and surrendering to flow.

• Suggestion: Prioritize self-care, creative pursuits, and emotional healing. Let yourself dream, but also make sure to set boundaries.

February 23: Mars Direct in Cancer

• Theme: Emotional energy regains momentum.

• Insight: After weeks of retrograde, Mars moving forward restores motivation, though in a more intuitive, emotionally-driven way.

• Suggestion: Clarity and action will begin to feel more easy. Move forward with care, using what you’ve learned during the retrograde period to take more thoughtful action.

February 25: Mercury Conjunct Saturn in Pisces

• Theme: Serious conversations and disciplined thinking.

• Insight: This transit calls for thoughtful communication and realistic planning. It’s a great time for deep discussions and long-term commitments. If you haven't already made plans for the year ahead, today might be a good day to buckle down. The Moon’s conjunction with Pluto in Aquarius on the same day as the Mercury-Saturn conjunction intensifies the emotional and psychological depth of this transit.

• Suggestion: Take your time with important decisions. Focus on structuring your ideas before taking action and being mindful of how you communicate.

February 27: New Moon in Pisces Square Jupiter in Gemini

• Theme: Expanding dreams vs. staying grounded in reality.

• Insight: This New Moon in Pisces carries a deeply intuitive and spiritual energy, but its square to Jupiter in Gemini adds an element of overextension. While Jupiter in Gemini wants to explore every possibility, the New Moon in Pisces encourages surrender and flow, which may lead to feeling scattered or unsure about which path to take.

• Suggestion: Stay open to new ideas but be mindful of overcommitting or getting lost in too many options. Set intentions that balance inspiration with practicality, and trust that clarity will come with time.
