The energies of the Full Moon in Leo cascade into the week, when people’s common concerns can push back against individual desires and ego. And yet the chance for us to come together collectively in a very positive way is still possible, with Mercury and Venus remaining close together early in the week in the sign of friendship, Aquarius.
Yet the celestial news headlines this week will likely be all a buzz with the modern ruler of Uranus stationing direct on Wednesday, ending his five-month retrograde phase. And whilst this is important, insofar as anything to do with personal freedom, higher truths and everyday financial affairs can be released from the internal tension the rewind created at some level, Uranus is still set to be very influential later this month, and in a potentially chaotic, unsettling and disruptive way. Even this week, it is in a right angle with Mercury in the idealistic Aquarius (initially), so there is still plenty of potential for fast, brittle exchanges and disagreements over points of principle or money.
The Sun is also in a quincunx with the more emotional agenda Jupiter can have in Cancer. Idealism and emotional security can be elusive – or is a friendship or group involvement set to creak?
And then on Friday, Mercury glides into probably its least-favoured location in its entire zodiacal journey, into Pisces. The elusive vibe of this sign does not sit well with Mercury’s desire for clarity or fast exchanges. However, if there is something we wish to express through word, music or around healing or the arts, we can be inspired for the next three weeks, before the first Mercury retrograde of the year begins on 26 February.
