Horoscopes
Aries
A Full Moon occurring today can bring buried or unacknowledged emotions to the surface, dear Aries, and decisions made about or with friends can be made quickly. Epiphanies about your social life, affections, and feelings can occur now, or an announcement or final word on a matter. Others may demand your attention and there can be a scurry of activity. Emotions are brought to the surface, and while things can be fairly wacky around you, it would be wise to listen carefully to what your heart is saying, but then take your time before jumping to decisions and conclusions. There can be a tendency for timing to be off, however, and for you to misjudge a relationship. Creatively speaking, this is a powerful time. Some of you could be announcing or presenting a project.
Taurus
Recent imbalances in your life, particularly concerning home and work or personal life versus public life, can become very obvious today and this week, dear Taurus. Family or home life can demand your attention now, possibly through sudden problems or realizations. While there can be some drama and impulsiveness experienced now, your intuition is backing you up. You seem to have a strong sense of what to do next. Even so, enthusiasm can be a little unstable or up and down now, as you could be seeing holes in your plans or areas that have not progressed as you had expected. For some, there could be travel or outside interests interfering with family demands, or vice versa. Should I stay or should I go? may be a question for you today and tomorrow.
Gemini
You are especially open to making changes today, dear Gemini, and with a Full Moon in your communications sector, this can involve news or information coming in, a personal interest, or studies. A need for change in your immediate environment, school, or neighborhood could figure strongly now. Final word could arrive on travel or educational plans. This Leo Full Moon is about attention and drama, so if you’ve been holding back or acting indifferent with friends, this is a time for letting people know they’re appreciated. However, today and tomorrow, you may need to be careful with what you’re broadcasting, as things can be overblown.
Cancer
Emotions run high and can be surprising with a Full Moon occurring today, dear Cancer. For you, it’s about balancing the giving and receiving of pleasure, sharing, and issues of power. Financial matters can be a hot topic. You become especially aware of your needs and desires today, and you’re feeling especially generous. The tendency may be to overdo or promise a little too much, however. For some, though, there can be a sudden awareness of a lack of money or a pinch with your finances! Whether you’ve been ignoring your need to pamper yourself or overdoing it recently, today you’ll want to balance the scales.
Leo
The Moon in your sign all day, dear Leo, and reaches Full this evening. There can be important personal revelations, possibly about a partner or relationship, and the enthusiasm stirred up now can take you far. This Full Moon might also stir new ideas and desires concerning your own self-image. Something about you or a partner can be exposed now, or an important culmination can also occur. While this is definitely a time for pushing your usual boundaries, watch for exaggeration – keep things real. You’re going to get attention, so make sure it’s of the positive kind!
Virgo
The Moon in your privacy sector all day today and tomorrow, dear Virgo, suggests that the most emotional satisfaction is likely to be found in some form of withdrawal or rest. Today, a Full Moon occurs here, and there can be strong desires and impulses to make a quick, possibly daring decision. There may be a work project or health matter that is reaching a head now. There can be very important dreams or intuitive flashes that occur today, and they’re about letting go of things and attitudes that no longer serve you well. Do your best to avoid nervous tension, which will distract you from what you’re really meant to do. This Full Moon illuminates a matter that puts you into dramatic touch with a feeling that you’ve been burying or ignoring. Private and previously hidden matters can come to light now, making it a good time in the coming weeks to deal with them.
Libra
Friends can require a lot of attention and possibly some support today, dear Libra. Take advantage of the rush of energy around you to ride your inner waves. Some drama in your social circle is possible with a Full Moon occurring in your sector of friends, groups, and ideals. You might also experience a romantic revelation of sorts, or a creative project is coming to a head now and in the coming weeks, Emotions that have been building inside can push for release today, and the need for a change, improvement, or outlet is powerful. You have many ideas, as well as the courage to run with them. Today and tomorrow, however, watch for overdoing.
Scorpio
This can be a time for a big announcement, realization, publication, or showcasing, dear Scorpio, with a Full Moon occurring at the very top of your solar chart. It’s a great time for some personal PR. This lunation can stimulate stronger emotions surrounding your career, responsibilities, or reputation. This is a time for improving your life, releasing tension, and recognizing emotions and needs that you’ve kept at bay. If a need for some attention and recognition is part of this, embrace it. The need to put your past behind you is strong so that you can make necessary changes in both your personal and professional lives. However, it’s important to avoid exaggeration and to watch what you broadcast, as a tendency to over-commit is strong today and tomorrow.
Sagittarius
News can arrive now that opens up new doors for you, dear Sagittarius, or that closes a door so that you can move forward. You may be making an announcement, publicizing or publishing something important, and reaching out to new people. The Full Moon in Leo today generates a whole lot of emotional energy, and mental energy as well, especially for you. It can illuminate something you’ve kept to yourself, or could bring the fruition of a project. An idea that you’ve been working on might blossom now. Advertising or promotional efforts can be successful. Watch for exaggeration, however.
Capricorn
Something that’s been building inside and wants release can emerge today, dear Capricorn, with a Full Moon occurring this evening. There is impulsive and enthusiastic energy to the day. Revelations about money, personal possessions, shared finances, taxes, debts, or investments can be experienced now. For some, a discovery about feelings or an intimate relationship can figure strongly. You may want to get closer to someone, and the need is compelling now. It may be time to settle some of your debts, financial or otherwise. There can be new money coming into your life for some, or a shuffle of money sources.
Aquarius
The Full Moon that occurs today, happens in your opposing sign (Leo), which can point to relationship issues coming to light, but also to possible exposure of a personal matter, dear Aquarius. This can simply be something that has been brewing inside of you and you now reach a personal epiphany, but sometimes another person becomes aware of something about you that was previously hidden. This energy can be very revealing on an inner level. If you’ve been ignoring feelings about someone, or a relationship itself, this is a time when these things demand their share of attention. You’re inclined to reach out to someone today.
Pisces
The Full Moon that occurs this afternoon can bring light to a spiritual or service-related matter for you, dear Pisces. Emotions can be strong now, and flaws of a particular system, project, job, or even your own body, can be magnified in your mind. The need to make changes to your routines becomes very obvious now. A work project or a job itself can begin or end in this stage of your life. There is an increased ability to see the details that need to be completed on a project. A health issue might come to light. Blockages that come to light can be revealing, if raw.

The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EST) on February 3rd:
Note that when an aspect is Applying, it has not yet happened but is within orb – it’s pending. When an aspect is Separating, it has already happened/perfected and is moving away from the aspect. Depending on the speed of the planet/body involved, the aspect will have perfected, or will perfect, in a matter of hours (often the case with the Moon), days, months, and possibly years in the case of the very slow-moving outer planets and bodies.
Note that the Moon moves at a rate of approximately one degree every 2 hours, so that if an aspect involving is applying and has an orb of 5 degrees, the aspect will perfect (be exact) in about 10 hours. If the Moon is separating from an aspect with an orb of 2 degrees, it has already formed said aspect approximately 4 hours ago (since the following are positions at noon today, then it would have occurred at about 8 AM today).
**I suggest paying close attention to applying aspects. The energy of the aspect builds as it gets closer to exact. Once an aspect has happened, it’s over. Separating aspects are good to know for context, but in terms of energy that is with us today, applying aspects are most important. (This is the case for daily astrology influences, which pass quickly, and not natal astrology aspects, which are with us for a life time).
