Horoscopes
Aries
You’re eager to work on your to-do list today, dear Aries, after some rather unfocused days behind you. However, things are not necessarily smooth sailing on this front, largely due to obligations in other areas of life and a persistent call to daydream, reminisce, or otherwise mentally float away from the tasks at hand. Try not to be hard on yourself for any of these things. Focus will return eventually, and trying to push too hard could leave you behind even further.
Taurus
Be especially mindful of how you express yourself today, dear Taurus, as you may come across quite curtly without meaning to. However, if something needs to be said, this may be a way of finally putting it out there. In close relationships, insecurities or fears can fuel interactions and lead to unhealthy exchanges, or feelings of being alone even if physically with someone. If a positive momentum is missing today, avoid taking it to heart. Be patient and avoid blaming either yourself or someone else. Creative pursuits may very well thrive today, as long as you’re focused on pleasing yourself and not too invested in others’ responses or feedback.
Gemini
The day can begin with a strong desire to accomplish something solid and practical, dear Gemini, but if plans don’t run smoothly, try not to take it to heart. There can be many distractions, not the least of which is a tendency for your mind to wander. There can be some see-sawing emotionally, and it may be difficult to know what to do next, what/who to believe, or even what you want. There is an inclination to quickly become frustrated or aggravated by small problems and flaws. Old issues that you thought you had buried might emerge and occupy your mind, or a bad dream can affect your mood. What you need more than anything today is an anchor, whether that’s a person or a favorite activity. With this in place, you can accomplish much.
Cancer
You could be feeling especially passionate and enthusiastic about a project or personal interest today, dear Cancer, and want to pursue it further. In fact, you’re drawn to the details and excited about sinking your teeth into it. However, circumstances may be such that you’re taken on different paths. A loss of focus can be one such thing, and responsibilities or duties can be another. There can be a general feeling of discontent around you, and some of it could be originating within you, so be honest with yourself. In fact, there are times when we feel unsettled or unsure and we attract uneasy energy to us as a result, to the point that we feel life around us is chaotic. Today may involve some of this type of energy. However, important lessons can occur if you look for them. For example, insecurities can be illuminated, and you need to see them before you can resolve them.
Leo
There is a “back to business” feel to the day, and especially the morning, dear Leo. You may be connecting with people who are mentally aggressive, and while you may be annoyed, if you take a step back, something that’s said can jump start thinking that can ultimately helpful. You can get a lot done today if you avoid over-stimulating yourself or pressuring yourself to get things done too quickly. The Sun is moving towards an opposition to Jupiter, exact tomorrow, and there could be a need to reassess certain projects or endeavors that may not have advanced as you had expected. Watch that a strong desire for success doesn’t cloud your judgment.
Virgo
With the Moon entering your sign early into the day, dear Virgo, you can experience an emotional reawakening of sorts. You want to feel connected to your environment, and you’re looking for feedback and acknowledgement. This is a more impulsive time of the lunar month. This afternoon, when Neptune opposes the Moon in your sign, you could be feeling guilty about tending to your own needs. Keep in mind that taking care of yourself is vital before you can share yourself with others in a healthy fashion. It’s not at the expense of a relationship, but rather to its benefit. Continue to be generous with others, but open yourself to receiving as well. Tomorrow’s Sun-Jupiter opposition will open your eyes to any excessiveness when it comes to supporting or servicing everyone but yourself.
Libra
With the Moon moving into your solar twelfth house today, dear Libra, you need your space. This is a natural time of the lunar month for some level of withdrawal or anonymity. You have been doing a lot of giving recently, and now it’s time to give a little more to yourself. Practice self-compassion. Details that you have missed in recent days begin to fill your consciousness, making this a fairly good day for looking back at projects that need some more attention or editing. However, overall, it’s not likely to be the most productive of days on a mundane level, but is strong for processing and looking back.
Scorpio
You can begin the day really wanting to get things done, dear Scorpio, but consider that if you push yourself too hard at the beginning, you might burn out a little too fast. Slow and steady wins the race today. There are humps to get over, and they may involve concerns about money, talents, or resources (feeling that you don’t have enough, or enough access to them), and later today, a daydreamy lack of focus. However, once past these, you’re in considerably better shape for taking care of business and tending to details that you’ve missed, neglected, or consciously put aside.
Sagittarius
Coming out of some emotional, high-flying days, you’re now gearing up to take care of business, dear Sagittarius. While the mindset is there, some challenges are possible. For one, you can be a little too focused on what you’re lacking to fully appreciate what’s there in front of you. Another possible challenge involves going at a project full speed ahead, and trying to rush through something that requires a slower pace to get just right. Distractions from the home front or family can also interrupt the flow, after which it’s smoother sailing. The Sun and your ruler, Jupiter, are moving towards an opposition, exact tomorrow, and you’re reaching a turning point in an educational or communications project.
Capricorn
The Moon’s move into your adventure sector today is a bright one, dear Capricorn, as it tends to lift you out of yourself and your mind to the larger picture. Even so, Virgo is on this sector of your chart, so that you are naturally drawn to the details and practicality of long-term plans. This can actually be a fun exercise for you, but with the Moon challenged here today, this detailed focus can too easily turn into fretting. Try not to focus on what you’re lacking, as this is counter-productive, unless of course you quickly turn it into an opportunity to solve a problem.
Aquarius
Early today, you can experience a strong urge to get things done, dear Aquarius, but could feel that you are required to move more quickly than you want to. Organizing or researching work can be attractive today. Certainly, you’re not quite satisfied with skimming the surface of things today. Because of pressures and your mindset, you may be a little stern or unwittingly insensitive in your communications. It can be quite easy to get lost in your own world today. Some form of retreat can be in order, if it can be managed.
Pisces
The Moon moves into your partnership sector today, dear Pisces, and you’re naturally inclined to look for balance. Of course, that means noticing the imbalances. If you dwell on them, things can become tense. However, if you look for ways to bring things back to a harmonious state, this can be an important, empowering exercise. If you’re facing an emotional person, try not to respond with pulling away or other evasive behavior. While there can be some problems with misunderstandings, your concern and care can help strengthen close relationships. Sometimes, a conflict helps to take a relationship to a new level, as it’s better than sweeping a matter under the rug.

The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EST) on February 5th:
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).
