Libra Horoscope for February 2017

This is an important month of transition, Libra. Your creative self-expression takes center stage, and as well the way that you have for reaching out to important others in your life. With Jupiter opposite Uranus and Eris across the axis of your chart that symbolizes self and other, insights have been flying fast and furious; and because these cosmic triggers are still quite active, the flood of intuitional information is far from over. Partners are potent for you in this month’s cycles. Some of the messages that the universe has been giving to you are likely being delivered by means of these significant others. As the month continues to unfold, you are investigating to serious purpose a variety of ideas. You might also be coming to some painful realizations concerning prior patterns that you are more than ready to let go of, and that have their corrective in greater acceptance and awareness. The deep transformation in which you are engaged arises from within.

The following was written by this month's guest columnist Maria DeSimone of Insightful Astrology:

You’re in a magnificent place this month when it comes to love and partnership. As February begins you’ll still be under the rays of a gorgeous New Moon that fell in your true love sector on January 27. If single, you’ll have a wonderful opportunity to meet someone worthy of your heart over the next several days. If you’re already dating there’s a distinct possibility you and your sweetheart are ready to make a more exclusive commitment. You can thank your ruler, Venus, for this potential. On February 3 she’ll move into your partnership sector, in a strong position to help support harmony between you and your love. If you’re already married or in a committed partnership, this recent New Moon, along with Mercury moving into your 5th house on February 7, might bring about conversations or a decision to have a child. You and your lover might even be sharing baby news early in February thanks to these planetary line ups and if that’s the case, you’ll both likely feel overjoyed.

Another possibility is that you are more focused on a creative endeavor than on romance. If this is the case then you’ll be in an unusually strong position to have your artistic ideas flow this month. Begin the project by the 9th in order to take advantage of the New Moon push but know that Mercury will help you flesh out your plans and ensure there are no creative blocks all the way through February 25. You might collaborate with a partner on this project and if so, the joint effort will likely be mutually gratifying.

Looking ahead to February 10 a personal aspiration is likely to take flight. A stunning Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in your 11th house of hopes, wishes and dreams will see to this. What are you ready to manifest that will make your heart soar? This is what you are meant to focus on now, knowing that any obstacles have been removed in order for you to enjoy the most fulfilling outcome. Since this part of your chart also rules technology it’s possible that you’ll be ready to release an app, website, webinar series or even a social media campaign that is creatively inspired. You might also take on a deeper, more meaningful role in an organization you’re a member of. On a mundane level, social engagements should be deeply gratifying midmonth and throughout the end of February.

By the time February 26 rolls around, a New Moon Solar Eclipse will fall in your work and health sector. This will be your time to initiate changes in order to promote a better sense of well-being. If you’re looking for freelance work, or to make a job switch, begin the process after this lunation.
