Astrological Events Happening in February 2024
We start the month with Mercury, the planet of communication and conceptualization, settling into the stubborn energy of Aquarius. When Mercury enters a fixed sign, everyone may fight to have their opinion heard without much listening, which can hinder flexibility and freedom. This feeling will only worsen as Mercury crosses over Pluto, bringing conflict to our conversations. However, once Mercury makes it through the flames, we may find these breakdowns leave room for new ways of thinking. Sometimes, you need to let out your anger and scream your head off before you can find common ground.
The new moon in Aquarius on February 9, 2024, sets up a square to Uranus, suggesting unexpected drama or disruptions in an area of life you thought you had under control. This could manifest as running up on issues with an authority figure or external forces putting undue pressure on you. You might feel the urge to burn your entire life to the ground and start over, but it's important that you don't overreact in the moment. Mercury will apply a square to Jupiter during this new moon, which could cause you to overreact. Normally, a transit like this wouldn't cause this level of disruption, but with the new moon brushing up against Pluto in the days leading up to the new moon, something's gotta give.
Mars links up with Pluto in Aquarius on Valentine's Day, February 14, 2024, just two days before love planet Venus enters Aquarius. This conjunction shows intense feelings and exertions of power that could spark fights and fallout. There could be explosive arguments between you and a partner where neither of you is willing to budge, and for some people, it could be the breaking point that finally makes or breaks the relationship. For single people, it might mean a bad date or disagreement over dinner and drinks with your pals. Whatever your plans, keep it sweet if you can; there could be a possibility of reconciliation later in the evening, and the moon and Jupiter will cozy up next to each other in the sign of Taurus, which could be a perfect moment for some cuddles and makeup sex.
Then, on February 19, 2024, as we transition toward the hopeful energy of Pisces season, things take a turn for the reflective as we reflect on our next steps. The full moon in Virgo on February 24, 2024, will feature a tense Mars-Venus-Jupiter square, which brings emotional demands to the surface. Whatever relationships you've maintained out of obligation or guilt will likely fall apart. This might've scared you before, but after the chaos of Aquarius season, you'll feel more confident than ever in your ability to embrace reinvention.
February 2024 Horoscopes for Each Zodiac Sign
Curious to learn what the stars have in store for you this month? We recommend reading the horoscopes for your sun and rising signs for the most accurate message.
Aries (March 20-April 19)
This month's astrology suggests that you should upgrade your life by letting go of any bad habits or negative people who are hindering your progress. It's time to evaluate who is genuinely supporting you and who's just around to watch you fail. The new moon in Aquarius may reveal an energy vampire or a secret enemy in your circle who's been sabotaging you subconsciously. You should be prepared for the possibility of shocking or revealing news about someone whom you thought was a friend. This event can emotionally empower you to let go of them and make better choices for yourself.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
You're probably tired of hearing about money and your career, but as long as Jupiter is spinning around in your sign, that's your focus. And this month is going to demand a lot more from you energy-wise. Expect incoming money and financial blessings that you will need to learn how to balance more effectively. This is going to require a bit of trial and error, and at times you might feel like you've taken on way more than you bargained for. Be mindful of where you exert your energy as the planets begin moving into Aquarius, sapping your motivation and frustrating your efforts. If you can spare some time during the upcoming full moon in Virgo, take a break and relax.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)
This month, you may experience a few awkward or frustrating situations at work that lead you to doubt yourself and your abilities. Maybe you'll be caught gossiping with a coworker or losing focus on the important details of a situation. It can be easy to let shame push back into the shadows, but that won't prevent this from happening again! Instead, use this month's Aquarius energy as a chance to dig deeper, identify the root cause of the issue, and work towards finding a solution that works best for everyone involved. Avoid stubbornly sticking to a wrong decision, as this will only lead you deeper into trouble!
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Throughout this month, you may find yourself dealing with a lot of emotional baggage and past feelings, especially around the full moon in Virgo towards the end of the month. It's possible that old conflicts and resentments may resurface during this time. Rather than avoiding them, it's important to face them head-on to understand what they're trying to tell you about your current situation. Mecury's journey through Aquarius is a reminder that talk is cheap! Watch for how people are treating you. This will help you make the necessary adjustments to bring yourself closer to a path of alignment.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
It's possible that you might come across some information or a secret about a family member or someone close to you that could shake your confidence and make you question your relationships. This month, tensions around this information will be high due to Mercury (communication) and Mars (aggression) both crossing over Pluto (destruction). You might feel like reacting impulsively, but it's important to avoid jumping to conclusions. Wait until after the full moon in Virgo has passed before taking any serious action.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Virgo, this month, you're trying to change your mindset by making significant changes to your daily habits and routines. It's time to let go of any past guilt and forgive yourself for not being perfect. Lingering on your mistakes can seriously damage your physical and spiritual health. The full moon in Virgo this month encourages you to set yourself free and ground yourself in your current reality. The best option is to move forward and find new ways to appreciate the little things in your life and make them part of your personality.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct 22)
This month, you'll have the opportunity to experience a burst of creative growth. Aquarius season will inspire you to be more authentic and daring, even if it means being messy. However, one of the obstacles you may encounter is your desire for perfection and concern about what others think of you. If you can accept that being human is a messy journey with its own challenges, you can free yourself from other people's expectations and live more genuinely in the present moment. Embrace a new way of showcasing your talents during the new moon in Aquarius and let other's criticism roll off your back.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
As a Scorpio, it's time to make some changes in your home. You might feel stuck and unhappy with your current situation, but the energy of Aquarius season can help you move away from toxic environments. During the new moon and full moon this month, you may find yourself struggling with old relationship wounds. Don't hesitate to ask for help from your chosen family and community. They will support you, whether you're trying to break free from a cycle of the past or escape your current reality. Remember, you're not alone.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Sagittarius, it's time to stop playing with people's hearts, whether leading someone romantically or deceiving yourself with little white lies. If you delay taking action, things could worsen, and Venus crossing over Pluto around Valentine's Day could complicate matters. You might be trying to convince yourself that playing it cool is the "nice" thing to do, but your avoidant ways are only delaying the inevitable. And yeah, this can be about your lover or your boss or your BFF. Not all bad relationships are romantic!
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Everything feels like it's moving way too fast for you this month, Capricorn. Other people might be telling you to keep hustling, but it's okay to cut yourself a break. You're not going to miss out on the perfect opportunity or lose the moment forever because you relaxed. You've already put in the effort and shown you can deliver what's expected of you. Lean into the romantic vibes of the full moon in Virgo this month and shut out the rest of the world for a bit. Spend your spare time in the arms of a lover – or for the singles – give yourself permission to go on a few frivolously fun dates. Cheers to a good time!

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
This month is a great opportunity for you to strengthen your sense of self. However, this transformation won't come without some challenges. Pluto's influence this month will disrupt your love life (Venus), cause anger issues (Mars), and affect your mind (Mercury). So, it's likely that the new moon in your sign will be an emotional time. The bad news is that you can't hide from these challenges. The good news is that you don't need to hide from them either. It's best to face whatever is coming to the surface. Don't let past experiences or fears stop you from pursuing love. Remember that you are deserving of love just as you are, and you don't need to change yourself to earn the affection of others.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
You're in a deep slumber for the first half of this month, Pisces, and it might feel like everyone else is falling apart around you. Be mindful not to get pulled into other people's drama or petty disagreements, especially leading up to Valentine's Day. Your main focus should be on healing and spirituality, with an emphasis on endings and reflections. During the back half of the month, Pisces season will awaken a powerful sense of conviction within you, inspiring you to achieve great things. Use the transformative energy of the full moon in Virgo to set fire to your old life and clear space for the new you.
