Welcome to February, sis! Tis’ the season of loving on yourself, filling up your own cup first, and acknowledging that rest is restorative. As the sun continues to rest in Aquarius until February 18th, remember that you can always dream new dreams and you don’t have to place them in a container or label yourself as someone who wears just one hat. You can be multifaceted— step outside of your comfort zone.
To no surprise, the first Mercury retrograde of the year is here and it’s also in the sign of Aquarius. During this retrograde period, it can be a great time to go on a digital detox to help clear your mind and re-strategize how you wish to show up for yourself in real life when no one is watching. Once the sun shifts into dreamy, intuitive Pisces on February 18th, allow yourself to romanticize your desires in life. Pisces season encourages us to wear our hearts’ on our sleeves in order to get to the bottom of who we really are when we’re feeling our most vulnerable. There is nothing wrong with craving connection, sensual pleasure, and fantasizing about the partner of our dreams. February is all about reminding ourselves that we can be both strong and delicate, loud and soft— we can coexist in many different spaces. This month is for us and we are truly our ancestors’ wildest dream. #HappyBlackHistoryMonth

Aquarius
Happy Solar Return to all you February Aquarius’! This month will feel like a breath of fresh air as Mercury retrograde will have you feeling a need to start anew and really get to the bottom of what makes you happy. During the last few weeks of your season, remind yourself that self-care is not selfish. In fact, as you start to reimagine and rediscover who you are and what you desire out of this lifetime, it’s important that you invest much of your energy into yourself. Take your power back, boo!
Once the sun shifts out of your sign and moves into Pisces on February 18th, it’s time to start putting those visions for yourself into action. Start thinking about what you need in this moment to make your dreams and visions your reality. If you get stuck and feel like you’re losing your spark, no worries. Don’t overthink it. Reconnect to your senses. Focus on the little things that taste good, smell good, and feel good. Curate a playlist and set the vibes for yourself. Keep riding out the beautiful high from your birthday season.
What you deserve this month:
Pisces
Breathe, Pisces. As you gear up for your season in mid-February acknowledge the space you’re currently in. You are going through a powerful healing and transformative period. As Mercury retrograde highlights your 12th house of closure, endings, and karma, notice who and what chooses to walk out of your life. The more you’re able to welcome the new change and unleash the strong-hold on what could have been, the easier it’ll be for you to receive whatever it is you’re wishing for. Stop trying to explain to others why you deserve something from them and instead be that for yourself.
As Pisces season begins on February 18th, it’ll feel like you’re waking from a blissful night of rest. Tis’ the season of reminding yourself who the f*ck you are and getting back into your bag. Your intuition is on point and will be a guiding force to helping you figure out which path you want to take as you enter the next chapter of your life. Know that your emotional nature is never a burden. Anyone who truly knows a Pisces’ knows that you all serve as mirrors to everyone else and ultimately help people unlock their true potential.

Remember that there is someone out there that you can lean on when it feels like you’re hitting a wall. There’s a strong sense of wanting to break free from your old normal and reimagining what life is like when you initiate the change you’ve been yearning for all this time.
Once Pisces season begins on February 19th, you’ll find yourself wanting to crawl in your shell as your gear up for your solar return next month— cheers to that! After a month of putting yourself out there, connecting with friends and putting in the work to manifest your dreams, take some time to turn inwards. It’s totally fine to save some of your magic for yourself, love.

It’s important for your career to be in great alignment with your personal values and beliefs. This month, ask yourself what would you like to see change within your career path? You have big dreams to find your true calling and do the work that fills your soul— don’t second guess yourself. As Mercury retrograde hits your 10th house of career and reputation, expect longer work days ahead especially if you’re taking on a new role or job offer. It’s ok to take your time, no need to rush through the work.
Once the sun moves into your 11th house during Pisces season, give yourself a breather from work and connect with those in your circle who bring you joy. Those who nourish and feed your energy. If you’d rather spend more time off Instagram and social media, give that to yourself. Perhaps, you’re in search of a creative outlet to help release any frustrations from work. Gather the girls around, via zoom or FaceTime and put on a cute paint and sip session. Vent to one another, hold space for one another.

With your 8th house being highlighted for the first half of February, ask yourself when do you feel the sexiest? Is this feeling synonymous with when you feel most alive? Tap into your sensual power by diving deep into what your mind and body crave. This will allow you to harness the creative passion and self-expression you've been searching for. As you slowly step out of the shadow, remember that you don’t have to be everything to everyone— save some of your magic for yourself. Valentine’s Day this year will be one to remember whether you choose to be boo’d up or spend some alone time, exploring the depths of what turns you on— rooting for you!
As Mercury stations retrograde in your 8th house of debt and loans, watch your pockets, sis. Be very diligent about creating a budget for yourself. It’s ok to reward and splurge on yourself, but be sure you’re not doing it out of impulse or in need of “retail therapy”. Write down your wants versus your needs and start thinking about how your savings goals can contribute to your long-term visions and dreams.

There is something that both of you need to get off your chest. If single, best believe they’re all eyeing you.
