  • February 23: Swipe right on the unexpected.


Just like your celestial symbol, the scorpion, you are a quick-moving shadow dweller who moves between realms without batting an eye. You always have a secret master plan, and there’s nothing you love more than surprising people with your unexpected power moves. But when does your privacy turn into secrecy? And, perhaps more importantly, at one point are you lying to yourself? (Mic drop!)

On February 9, a Full Moon in Leo will help you see more clearly. As the Sun and Moon meet on opposite sides of the sky, forming equal parts illumination in light and darkness, you’ll come face-to-face with whatever you’ve been avoiding. Perhaps you feel torn between your stability and your ambition? Maybe part of you wants to maintain the status quo while another wants to launch into the unknown?

You might be scared, Scorpio—and that’s okay! You are allowed to have complex feelings, so let all of those truths exist under this lunation.

If you dig tarot cards, consider meditating with the Magician card, which symbolizes the ability to use all your resources (intellect, passion, emotion, and structure) in order to manifest incredible change. Don’t forget that you, yourself, are pure magic.

It’s important to retrace our steps to make sure we’re on the right path, and that’s exactly what Mercury Retrograde is all about. On February 16, the planet of communication begins to cruise backward in Pisces, causing things to slow down in all areas of life. For you, Scorpio babe, this will specifically impact your creative processing. You might find somewhat uninspired.

This is to be expected: You’re simply wringing out old ideas in order to get ready for the new! So don’t fret—you’re just preparing for your glow up. Repeat after me: “When Mercury goes direct on March 9, it’s *over* for you bitches.”

Pisces season kicks off on February 18 when the Sun cruises into the last sign of the zodiac. By this point, Valentine’s Day may be over, but you’ll be feeling super amorous. You’re ready to fall in love or make someone fall in love with you, so go ahead and post your favorite selfies and swipe right on a few cuties.

The New Moon in Pisces on February 23 is an excellent time to connect with new boos, so consider incorporating a date night into your #selfcaresunday. Sure, Mercury may be retrograde, but the shift in perspective may actually inspire you to think outside of the box. This may be the POV shift you’ve been waiting for—and I’m totally here for it!
