I see a half-moon a-rising! The half-moon is very busy this week. It is jumping from Taurus to Gemini before finding its home in Cancer. Keep reading to find out what these lunar transits have in store for you!
Monday, February 7
Around breakfast time, the moon in Taurus forms a splendid sextile with Jupiter in Pisces. This is a perfect transit to exist under. This sextile brings us social and monetary success. We feel inspired and charitable, and are ready, willing, and able to help those in need. We are genuinely grateful for the friends we have and the things we have accomplished. But we are not merely resting on our laurels. We are making more detailed and extensive plans for our future.
Around lunchtime, the moon forms a trine with Mars in Capricorn. Under this trine, we are endowed with great physical and mental energy. We feel willful and resourceful. You may have struggled with hardships recently, but you are pushing through and persevering. Keep at it!
About an hour later, the moon forms a conjunction with Uranus. This constellation brings out the positive and negative traits of Taurus to an extreme. Under this conjunction, we may be stubborn and hard to reason with. We might lack an inner balance and be unwilling to compromise. We also might develop unusual habits or fall back into certain unsavory behaviors. On a more optimistic note, romantic relationships may occur. It simply goes to show that we are all worthy of love even on our bad days.
In the early evening, the moon forms a trine with Venus in Capricorn. Under this trine, love and partnership are on our minds. We find ourselves in sweet and charitable moods. We are helpful and eager to adapt to the needs of our partners. The opportune moment to discuss romantic commitment may arise soon. Be sure to keep the lines of communication open.

Early this morning, the moon in Taurus forms a square with Saturn in Aquarius. Under this square, we feel incredibly restricted. We may feel embittered and unsatisfied with our current situation. We also feel secretive and find it difficult to be truthful with our loved ones. A little alone time and mental rest may be beneficial. But it may also be helpful to reach out and talk to someone when you feel ready.
Around breakfast time, the sun in Aquarius forms a square with the moon. Under this half-moon, we can face many obstacles in our personal and professional lives. We may feel uncomfortable in our own skin and around others. This discomfort can lead to public disputes. Since we are particularly susceptible to health issues at this time, we may find it helpful to take a mental health day and let ourselves unwind.
At noon, the moon forms a sextile with Neptune in Pisces. Under this sextile, our spiritual life flourishes. Taurus and Pisces are working together to give us a fertile imagination. We feel a tremendous amount of empathy at this moment, and this empathy can inspire our creativity. Now is a great time to utilize our artistic talents to create something that can inspire others.
This evening, the moon forms a trine with Mercury and Pluto, both in Capricorn. We are eager to learn and we use good judgment. Under this placement, we are more likely to use critical thinking and positive rhetoric to overcome our troubles. We also may feel a bit restless at this time and have a strong desire for adventure. We are open to experiencing anything new. At this time, we can easily influence others with our charisma and leadership qualities.
Wednesday, February 9
Just as we are waking up, the moon moves into inquisitive Gemini. Under this moon, our mental faculties are sharpened. We are curious and sympathetic. We are ready to have new experiences and meet new people. This is a wonderful time to network, and meet someone who may open doors for us. We are open to new possibilities and are willing to learn and to achieve any and all opportunities.
Thursday, February 10
Right after midnight, the moon in Gemini forms a square with Jupiter in Pisces. Under this square, conflict may arise in many facets of our lives. We may find ourselves at odds with others and pick fights with everyone around us. We may be careless with our resources as well as our health. Be mindful of alcohol and caffeine, because our livers are especially vulnerable.
Around lunchtime, the moon forms a trine with Saturn in Aquarius. Under this trine, we see things clearly and tackle our goals with a great level of dedication and care. We feel organized and responsible. There is a desire to sort out our space as well as our thoughts. We are setting our intentions with care and consideration. There is no immediate rush to see our plans come to fruition. We are happy to take methodical and deliberate steps in achieving our goals.
Friday, February 11
While we sleep, the moon in Gemini forms a square with Neptune in Pisces. Under this placement, we are passive and anxious. We may feel hypersensitive and be easily hurt by the words and actions of those around us. This hypersensitivity can lead us to direct our insecurities inward. We may be unkind and dishonest with ourselves. At times like this, self-care is very important. It may help to eat your favorite meal or watch your favorite movie. Meditation may also help. It could be very tempting to get lost in wishful thinking. Some positive escapism may help take your mind off of your anxieties.
A couple of hours later, the sun in Aquarius forms a trine with the moon. Under this trine, we experience levels of harmony that would make a Libra jealous. At this time, we feel physically, mentally, and emotionally healthy. We have a healthy work-life balance and we feel proud of our accomplishments. The relationships with our friends and family are strong and our relationships with our partners are flourishing. Take some time to warm yourself in the glow of your personal and professional achievements. You’ve earned it.
Around breakfast time, the moon finds its home in cozy Cancer. Cancer is a water sign and water seeks its own level. Like Cancer, we also yearn for home and seek our own level. The moon governs our emotions, and during this lunar reunion, we are empathetic and in touch with our own needs and feelings. Now is a wonderful time to curl up in bed with a good book to read or show to binge-watch. We can unwind with a home-cooked meal or a nice, long bath. Under this moon, it is okay to be a homebody.
