You're no stranger to vulnerability, Cancer, but February asks you to dig even deeper! The month starts out with a New Moon in Aquarius on February 1. A new beginning is around the corner as it relates to your relationship with intimacy with others. The New Moon is making a stressful connection with Uranus, the planet of disruption and unexpected events. This may manifest as a push and pull between wanting to crawl out of your shell and share some of your secrets with others...all while also fearing the reaction from members of your trusted community or friend group. If you don’t feel fully supported by someone, take that as a sign that you deserve to be surrounded by people who lift you up. Don’t fear being seen—those who are meant for you will show up.

Okay, can we talk about your love life already? It’s been going through the wringer and that’s putting it lightly. The cosmic energy lightens up on February 3 when Mercury goes direct in Capricorn. Mercury has been backpedaling through your house of committed relationships, contracts, and marriage for some time now. Exes and f*ckboys from the past probably resurfaced. This cosmic revision was all about assessing your needs and worth. Who is worthy of your time and nurturing energy? Hashing out unresolved relationship drama clears the path for more aligned partnerships moving forward.

While we’re releasing the past (or trying to—let’s be real, that's quite the challenge for your nostalgic self), the energy remains thick on February 4 as the Sun and Saturn meet up. There is extra emphasis on the emotional residue from these situations. Try to allow yourself to feel and acknowledging these feelings as they move through your body in the present. A fresh cycle is around the corner. On February 11, Mercury and Pluto link up for one last hurrah, and power dynamics within all relationships take centerstage. Secrets are revealed and the information you receive on this day will inform how you want to move forward in your closest ties.

All of this relationship energy will have you reflecting on your self-worth with the arrival of the Full Moon in Leo on February 16. What have you learned? What do you deserve? This is a period of integration. This Full Moon may bring up opportunities around income or financial resources. You could be finishing up a big freelance project or focusing on new ways to cultivate cash. On February 17, Jupiter in Pisces softly links up with Uranus in Taurus, inviting opportunity and expansion. This marks a positive shift in your mental perspective. You’re moving forward with more pep in your step and luck on your side.

As the Sun makes its annual dance into Pisces on February 18, you may have travel on your mind. Taking or planning a trip physically (if safe and possible) could be high on your to-do list....or you can also take trips in the ~astral plane~. A few days later, the cosmic energy intensifies as mindful Mercury in Aquarius clashes with disruptor Uranus in Taurus. You may be triggered today and act or speak from a place of pain. Slow down and be mindful before speaking. This is reactive energy that can cause tension within your friend groups. Something you or someone else says can leave quite a sting. On the positive side, expect mental breakthroughs!
