Your horoscope for the week of January 26 to February 1 says you should prepare for some high highs and some potentially low lows. The energy is particularly frenetic this week, but it’s also paving the way for exciting new beginnings and giving you more forward momentum.
January 27 brings a powerful shift as Mercury—planet of communication—enters Aquarius. This fixed air sign is famous for it’s alternative perspectives that challenge the status quo and commit to the future you desire. Mercury in Aquarius is a beautiful time to think with your community in mind, tying people together through shared ideas and values. However, let’s not forget that Mercury will also join forces with Pluto in Aquarius at the first degree on January 29. This could bring some bold, uncomfortable, and downright terrifying proposals into a discussion, but it will form the bedrock of a powerful vision that reveals what you are truly willing to fight for.
Despite the fact that Mars retrograde is slowing down your progress—maybe even bringing it to a standstill—January 29 is also when a new moon in Aquarius will lay down the groundwork for the next chapter of life you’ll begin to write. This will give you a bit of a boost, especially if you spend time using your favorite manifestation techniques.
You may be left with an unexpected epiphany around January 30, when Uranus—planet of revolution and rebellion—stations direct after a long retrograde that brought more internal change than external change. Shifting gears at 19 degrees of Taurus, this could throw a surprise curveball into your life—one that causes the wires to connect in a brand new way. The Aquarius sun will also be forming a trine with Jupiter in Gemini, bringing added excitement to your social endeavors, intellectual pursuits, and biggest ideas.
The most exciting—and romantic—moment of the week arrives on February 1, when Venus joins forces with dreamy and mystical Neptune at 27 degrees of Pisces. Venus is already “exalted” while moving through Pisces, but with Neptune involved, there could be fireworks that feel downright larger than life. Prepare to fall fast and hard, but also, let’s not be unrealistic about our expectations.
