Hey Sagittarius! Mars is
retrograde in your career sector in February, and he’s not happy!
Any planet which is in reverse will create difficulties, because it will be
unable to express its natural qualities, but with Mars, frustration could turn
to anger and if this is repressed, the effect on your body will be
detrimental. It will be very hard to express your feelings in your work
place at this time, particularly with reference to your attempts to prove your
worth and gain promotion. You may feel thwarted at every turn by other,
less competent colleagues! Alternatively, you could find yourself
exploding and telling your boss exactly what you think, which isn’t really a
good idea! Retrograde periods are times for reassessing and re-evaluating,
going back over old ground and seeing what needs to be changed, so it may be
time to think about whether your current career is really making use of all your
skills. Maybe you’re worth more than this!
The full Moon on the 7th could bring
travel plans to fruition, if you have been planning an exciting trip for a
while, now is the time when things will begin to take shape for you. If
you have been involved in a higher education course or have been fighting for
justice in a legal matter, you will see results at this time. Once these
projects are over however, there may be a ‘what next?’ feeling, such was the
focus of your energy, so you will need to fill the gap with a new
interest. Venus conjunct Uranus in your house of love will add a touch of
adventure to your romantic life between the 10th and 16th too, you might meet
someone new unexpectedly, and Valentine’s Day will be a rollercoaster ride of
emotion and excitement! What goes up must come down though, so be
cautious, as this love affair could fizzle out quickly. Declarations of
love from children during this period will surprise you.
With Mercury in your house of
communication until the 14th, you will be firing on all cylinders, mentally
alert and ready to show the world what you know! This is a restless
transit, because it is hard to close down your mind, so you may be pacing
the floor in the early hours, searching for sleep! Neighbours and siblings
will be chatty and you will probably hear interesting gossip from them, and you
will be busy with short trips around your neighbourhood and lots of errands to
run. If you are buying a car around this time, you will probably go for
something nippy, and will be more attracted than usual to silver or white.
A friend in need could call on you for support around the 12th to 18th, and you
may need to deal with correspondence on their behalf or tackle their list of
chores.
The Sun turns his attention to your
domestic area after the 20th, where he will busily connect with four other
planets across the skies! You will be at the centre of family life
during this period and will be relied upon to help family members with your
advice and authority. Working from home is well-favoured, and if you are
having a clear out of old items, you will find something valuable around the
time of the new Moon on the 21st, which will take you back in time to
remember happy days in your childhood. Partners could be disruptive
however, and it won’t be easy to talk to them, so if you have important stuff to
say, waiting until March is well-advised! Enjoy your month!
