Your stars with Lilith
A whole lotta moving and shaking in the celestial sphere this week, with Mars/Venus in adventurous, entrepreneurial Aries and Sun/Mercury in sudden-change Aquarius…
*ARIES: Mars and Venus in Aries advance your personal projects through meeting new people, supporting communal causes and being available for radical changes of perspective or attitude. A fabulous week if you can avoid obsessive, one-directional thinking. Resist over-sharing and gossip. Step away from heated power struggles. Maintain the vision splendid ...
*TAURUS: You're an earth sign. This month's fiery Mars/Venus and airy Sun/Mercury energies launch a rocket boost in your activities area which has you stepping out and/or up to new responsibilities. This week's gift is a Pied Piper personality who demonstrates how to downplay the strain and make it a game.

*GEMINI: This week could shift gears pretty quickly on several levels at once. Tread carefully, because hasty decisions made from nervous reactions could destabilise or undermine your professional and financial future. If discussions turn feral, aim at remaining calm. Take time to think things through before crystallising plans and sealing deals.
*CANCER: This month is best utilised for organising resources, mending fences and renewing contracts. With midweek moon in your sign approaching an eclipse, you lunar lovelies are likely to be extra sensitive; if the warm winds of change turn towards scorching, hang a Do Not Disturb sign on the Crab shell till energies settle.
*LEO: February's emphasis is on relationships. All kinds: public alliances, professional competitors, personal interactions, private lives. Jupiter is presently ramping up interpersonal learning, with immediate feedback on how you're doing. Mars and Venus in firecracker mode throw explosive exchanges into this week's mix, providing the perfect opportunity to practise handling difficult situations diplomatically.
*VIRGO: While Virgos like to be thoroughly prepped for any venture, don't immediately believe everything you hear this week. People may mean well, but might not have their facts straight. Making decisions based on assumptions rather than accurate information could leave you between a rock and a hard place. Mercury in Aquarius can be tricky.
*LIBRA: Mars and Venus probably have you feeling pretty chipper right now but Jupiter retro in your sign can seesaw moods from flagrant optimism to dire disappointment. This calls for the familiar dance along that median strip of balance. But despite inconsistent trends and strange behaviour, this week's challenges are still exhilarating …
*SCORPIO: Mars and Venus in Aries light a fire under precisely the kind of passionate, assertive, ardent climate you thrive in. Just don't let adrenalin override tact, because this week's people will be hyper-sensitive. Home base is your featured venue right now, with a family and community cast. Expect interesting visitors and exciting innovations.
*SAGITTARIUS: Sagittarian planet ruler Jupiter retrograde in your zone of communication, conversation, information and local activities suggests unexpected news, with possible family issues brewing. Best approach? Staying open to new points of view. Cautions? Speaking sharply or before editing, or just simply saying too much could work against you this week.
*CAPRICORN: Fast change, while not your forte, is a feature of this month. Unstable isn't your favourite operating mode, but it does tend to stimulate major breakthroughs. If others (or you) are moody, defensive and irritable, a playful approach will lift everyone's spirits and attract more support than serious considerations and weighty obligations.
*AQUARIUS: Know that quote about the futility of always doing the same thing and expecting different results? Results are your truest guru, so if something you keep doing isn't working, try the absolute opposite. A different outcome is guaranteed. It might even be one you wanted, because this week the force is with you.
*PISCES: If you're in the creative arts where imagination can be put to professional use, this is your week; as the zodiac's primo emotional juggler, you could work up something worthy of Cirque du Soleil. But if you rely on cold hard facts, best check them, because deceptive trends aren't assisting clear thinking.
