Weekly Horoscope for February 4: Rerouting to Promising Horizons.

Energetic patterns halt to a sudden stop this week. Like a fast car that hits the brakes just in time before crashing, be grateful for divine disruptions. Mercury, our collective messenger, enters the objective realm of Aquarius on the fifth. Detached perspectives clear our consciousness. Life makes more sense as we fly high, looking down at ourselves with a bird’s eye view. 

The week reaches its climax with the Aquarius new moon on February 9. The lunation squares, or is at odds with, its planetary ruler, Uranus, the planet of disruptions. Expect the unexpected! Anxiety hijacks our nervous system. However, integrating new information introduced to us with tact and authority will soothe. The new moon longs for a new beginning, yielding progress. Once you find your adjusted directions, you can drive again with more faith that you will soon arrive. The only difference is this time, you reach the correct destination.

MANTRA

I accept the circumstances that are not in my control while remaining empowered to change what is.

Your solar eleventh house of social belonging and goals amplifies. Rose-colored glasses fall off regarding your associations. While misunderstandings, friction, or disagreements with friends or colleagues feel temporarily unnerving, trust that any information that bubbles up is in your best interest.

Are you content with what you put your time, effort, and energy into? Do you see it bridging you toward the long-term desires you hold? Don’t leave any leaf unturned when it comes to your purpose.
