Horoscope: February 5, 2016
Your stars today
Aries | March 20 – April 19
Several important matters need attention, most of them immediately. This isn’t a problem. The issue is that certain individuals feel you’re neglecting them. While, obviously, you’ve explained, you weren’t thorough enough. Others are confused. Invest time now in detailing what’s up and why you’re so preoccupied. That should do the trick.
Taurus | April 20 – May 20
On the day it actually takes place, this Monday the 8th, the events triggered by the New Moon may seem unsettling. However, regard these and the unanswered questions you encounter as a springboard for exploration. What you learn and who you meet will be of huge interest, if not benefit.
Gemini | May 21 – June 20
Somebody you care about seems upset, and you’re not sure what to say or do. The real problem is they aren’t able to tell you what’s on their mind. While for you, as a Gemini, this variety of analysis is essential, others don’t care. They just need is a bit of loving sympathy. That’s all.
Cancer | June 21 – July 22
Every New Moon is about a fresh perspective, especially on existing arrangements. However, this Monday’s is also about pausing, for reflection on the past and, especially, on recognising what no longer works or, perhaps, should go. While it might seem you’re doing nothing, what you learn will prove immensely valuable.
Leo | July 23 – August 22
As a fire sign, you take pride in your swift reactions and fearlessness. However, certain matters must be taken slowly. Initially, you might think these can be dealt with easily. But, actually, they’re more complex than they seem. They require in depth thought and analysis, and could devour your time and energy.
Virgo | August 23 – September 22
You’ve several far-reaching decisions to make, a number involving those closest on the domestic or professional front. Much as you’d like to get these settled, try to wait and see what the Virgo Full Moon, on the 22nd, brings your way. These events and insights could substantially alter your thinking and priorities.
Libra | September 23 – October 22
Don’t be surprised if what begin as minor changes suddenly turn into something more far-reaching. These are the influence of the New Moon, which is about a fresh perspective on existing arrangements. For ages you’ve known changes were essential. Now those changes are likely to fall into place, and easily.
Scorpio | October 23 – November 21
Often the new can stand alongside the old without causing conflict. While, obviously, you’d prefer this, you’re concerned about the influence of the changes currently unfolding. While it’s true, they’re bound to shake things up, that would be no bad thing. You’ve been trapped in certain arrangements for far too long.
Sagittarius | November 22 – December 21
It’s not so much that you’re stubborn but that, once you’ve made a plan, changes can be distracting, and worse slow the pace. Yet these aren’t just wise, they’re necessary. It’s a matter of dealing with them now, and all at once, or putting them off and facing considerable disruption and disarray.
Capricorn | December 22 – January 19
The link between tender-hearted Venus and the usually tough Pluto, in Capricorn, indicates a breakthrough in even very complex relationship issues. True, initially this may mean making what seems a compromise. Nevertheless, do so. It forces others to be more flexible, as well. This in turn kick-starts the healing process.
Aquarius | January 20 – February 17
Making a promise to a friend is one thing. With these, if sudden changes are necessary, it’s no big deal. However, one particular individual seems determined to extract a most lasting commitment from you. Say a simple but firm no. With so much in transition, such guarantees simply aren’t possible.
Pisces | February 18 – March 19
Planning ahead may be a virtue. But in your case, it’s worth bearing in mind the Pisces New Moon, which constitutes a sort of personal New Year, takes place in a month’s time, on 9 March. Knowing that, regard what you organise now, and plan for the future, as being subject to change.
