Sun 15 Aquarius square Uranus 15 Taurus
With the Sun in Aquarius our aspirations for the future are tied somehow to our social responsibilities. As the Sun squares Uranus in Taurus we experience an electrical tension between our worldly aspirations & our personal desires for freedom from constraints related to money & resources, the body, pleasure, leisure, art, nature & beauty.The job of the fixed signs is to sustain conditions, which means they’re exceptionally loathe to change. But big change is coming & coming for us soon. The Sun's square to Uranus shows up like a Willy Wonka golden ticket: a shiny promise of exhilarating liberation, which indicates the impending upending of the old order of our lives, which will undoubtedly involve certain parts of our personality & experience getting sucked down the tubes in gigantic blueberry form on the way to a happy ending.Concepts of a golden future necessitate radical change but also Wonka-like eccentricity, innovation & the courage to be true to ourselves. They also require us to sacrifice a degree of comfort & personal ambition for the benefit of the collective but this also brings breakthrough benefits for us.

Venus 11 Pisces square Mars 11 Pisces:
Tensions in relationships, communications & ideas contain creative & intelligent potential today. Venus finds her exaltation in the luscious, imaginal realm of Pisces & as she squares Mars, who’s over it in Gemini, she’s in a superior position. Her heightened ability to dissolve hard edges in Pisces offers a creative solution to conflict & communication problems. The lovers’ square might show up as delightfully cerebral & mellifluous creative & romantic tensions or as a need to soothe argumentative tendencies & spiky intimacy avoidance but there's potential for beautiful results.

Full Moon 16 Leo square Uranus 15 Taurus
Monday’s Full Moon in Leo is a climactic culmination of recent Uranian events. It represents the peak of a cycle that began on the New Moon in Aquarius on January 22 and relates to the emergence of a new idea or future possibility, which was coming into view when Venus, now exalted in Pisces, was conjunct Saturn, ancient ruler of Aquarius. Here Saturn is the crystallizer of previously unimagined futures, which emerge through innovation and higher degrees of collective maturity.
Uranus, the Great Awakener, modern ruler of Aquarius, squares both Sun and Moon from Earth bound Taurus, charging matters relating to money and resources, the body, pleasure, leisure and beauty with a revolutionary energy, which acts as a prescient foreshadowing of the big changes coming in March.Recent Uranian breakthroughs have been priming us for the electricity we’ll experience on this Full Moon. Uranus’ square to the luminaries triggers sudden, shocking, unexpected but liberating shifts in energy, mindset and events, which somehow release us from old constraints and charge the unfolding narrative with radical plot twists that reorient our pathway into the future.
The Sun is far from home in Aquarius, sign of the collective, breakthrough thinking and decentralised networks of power, and it tones Leo’s natural exuberance with more serious cerebral energy but Leo rules the heart, leadership and play. We might ask ourselves at this pivotal culminating moment, how we can do things differently? Where are the rigid parts of ourselves clinging to old orders of being and relation? And how can we recentre the more authentic parts of ourselves in order to synthesise a new experience of belonging and being in the world?
