Cancer Summary
Recent years have been frustrating, but February seems to show you that you are about to take a major turn for the better. Jupiter, now in Pisces, is in a far better position to support your needs. This month this will become very obvious. You will get a chance to either go back to college or to travel quite far, or work with people in another country on a fantastically interesting project. Your actions could lead you down brand new lanes too, so don't hesitate to start.
Opportunities to do research, write, or edit in media will be astounding, too. It doesn't matter what phase of communication you may devote yourself to, from publishing to public relations, from sales to copy work for advertising, you will have your best chance ever to stand out.
A big breakthrough in one of these areas is due this month, especially over the last days of the month, February 26-28. These dates found late in February are due to be among the most fortunate of 2010, because at that time, Jupiter will align with the Sun.
Earlier, a moneymaking idea that you come up with could be pure genius, February 5-6.
Your cash flow has been very tight lately, but the events of this month should bring positive news that helps you quickly fatten your bank account. This may happen immediately or later, as soon as talks develop to an end point. The Sun rules your second house of earned income, and because the Sun will meet with the good fortune planet Jupiter, you'll see an expansive trend. This is especially good news, for on January 30, you had to write a check or had to make a big financial decision. You will know for sure that finally, luck is on your side, and as a result, your confidence in the future - and yourself - will grow.
This month will be good for your finances for other reasons. The new moon on February 13 will bring opportunities to get funds from outside sources, such as a loan from a bank, investment money from a venture capitalist, a cash settlement from an insurance company, or an outright gift or prize. Just be careful about all fine print and ask questions. Sometimes when Neptune is involved, as it will be at the new moon, you can be sold a bill of goods, so to speak - make sure all that you are told is true and solid.
Working on commission may turn out to be quite lucrative this month too, so if you do work this way, or expect bonus money, you'll have reason to be excited about your financial possibilities. If you work in the arts, in acting or the theatre, your luck will be tripled, due to the prominence of Neptune.
Mars is still in your financial house, showing how obsessed you are with increasing your cash flow, but because Mars has been in this house since mid-October, it suggests your efforts are starting to pay off.
Romance is always on everyone's mind, as Valentine's Day comes February 14, a Sunday. Fortunately, Venus, the goddess of love, will be in Pisces from February 10 to March 7, and Pisces is a sign that has a bewitching relationship with Cancer.
On February 16, Venus will conjoin her energies with Jupiter, giver of gifts and luck, a once-a-year event that is so special, if you could bottle the results, you'd become a millionaire. You'll feel the radiance of this day earlier, by February 14, so if you are attached, make plans - this day could be outstanding.
You seem to have travel on your mind too, all month. It is not clear if you will be on the phone or Skype a great deal with people at a distance, or if you will actually be going to have a face-to-face meeting. The full moon on February 28 in Virgo could bring a chance to pack and go. With the light getting ever so slightly brighter, and the weather just a touch warmer, even if work doesn't make you go, you'll have reason enough to flee. You may even decide to see a sibling or cousin in a nearby town - a good idea.
At month's end you may launch an important communications project as well. You may show off a new blog or send out a self-promotion advertising or publicity campaign. You may design a new iPhone app or announce the start of a radio show. You may design a logo for your business, or order special stationery for personal use, complete with engraved initials. If you need to sign a contract on February 28 or March 1, and if you have checked out the fine print with a lawyer, do! You'll have Pluto looking kindly on this venture, suggesting the other side will turn out to be an excellent partner. Dates to Note for Cancer:
Money has been tight, but better days are due. Watch February 27-28 for upbeat news of increasing financial resources.
If you need to borrow money, then the new moon on February 13, very strong for two weeks, could help you raise funds from a bank or other outside source.
The media, university study, and international trade will be big themes this month and next month, but particularly at February's end.
Travel is very likely at month's end, but you will have many other opportunities to pack and go all month.
If you're asked to sign a contract, do so on February 26-28, assuming you've read all the fine print with your lawyer! It's a fantastic time to do so.
Romance will take a back seat to all the other things going on this month, but you will have Venus in lovely angle to your Sun from February 11 to March 7.
When Venus conjoins with Jupiter on February 16, you have a major glitter day for love. This is two days after Valentine's Day, but could be close enough to shower you with pixie dust. With the moon in Pisces on Valentine's Day, if you have someone you hold dear, this year's day for lovers seems destined to be special.
One other day that will stand out very brightly for love will be February 23 and 24, when the Sun and transformative Pluto will cooperate beautifully, and the moon will glide in Cancer.
Capricorn Summary
Life is changing, something you saw at the end of December and mid-January, but February brings a lovely burst of cosmic opportunity. Last year 2009 was likely a strong and positive financial year, but this year seems to have started on an expensive note. You will need more cash in weeks ahead, but this month you may have a chance to do so.
With Jupiter brightening your third house, the way you communicate can now make or break your success. You can become more articulate and masterful with the communication arts and even surprise yourself with your growing sophistication with words. Be open to honing your skills and, if necessary, take classes.
Here are some examples to illustrate this trend. If you have always been in marketing, your company may ask you to become a spokesperson for your company or to teach others what you have learned. You may come up with an idea for a new app or blog or sell a book concept. If you are a writer, you may get an opportunity to host a radio or TV show. As you see by these examples, you seem to be moving into new realms. By doing so, you will broaden your talents and open up new areas for profits.
When Jupiter conjoins energies with the mighty Sun on February 27-28, an aspect that brings of the luckiest phases of the year, it would be the perfect time to see how bright this whole area of communication is for you. You may need to hand in an important document, white paper, or manuscript. Anything that allows you to show off your communication or negotiation skills will be fortunate and highly lucrative for you. February 26, 27, or 28 would be an ideal time to sign a contract. To make sure you enjoy the project you commit to now - and one seems to be coming up soon, if not in February, then in March - Venus, the planet of happiness, will be on hand to help. This will be particularly evident on February 16 when Venus and Jupiter will combine forces in your communication house. Jupiter's presence connotes generous financial benefits from the work you do too, so you will want to pay attention to the opportunities being presented.
Ideas that you come up with will be quite brilliant when Mercury in Capricorn sends a beam to Uranus, planet of genius, February 5-6.
Finances will also be on your mind too this month, particularly after the new moon, February 13. Ever since Mars entered your credit, debt, taxes, and other people's money sector - your eighth house - your expenses have been high. Now, with the new moon, you can find ways to generate more income. If you are in a creative field, or are an actor, designer, director, choreographer, or musician, or do anything else artistic - or work with artists in a support function - you will do especially well at this new moon. That's because Neptune, a planet associated with art, will be quite prominent.
Because the Sun rules money that comes to you through others, you may see a huge sum of cash on February 28, or two-three days prior to this date. This would not be earned income but money given to you as a loan, commission, inheritance, court settlement, or outright gift.
Neptune's presence underscores that you will need to be clear about financial dealings, for you could be led into a confusing situation that becomes unnecessarily complicated or could glitter brightly, but upon closer inspection not be all it first seemed to be. If you are not sure, talk over impending deals with your accountant or financial advisor.
A matter at a distance may come to fruition at the full moon, February 28. Alternatively you may be visiting a college campus, taking a major exam, or handing in a thesis or other key paper. It is also possible you may have to see the passport agency, do jury duty, or have an international matter to finish up. It's a positive time - enjoy it.
Romantically, how you fare will depend on what happened in December and January in your closest relationship. The eclipses were affecting your partnerships quite strongly. If you are still together, happily, you might decide to take a little trip out of town simply to enjoy one another. Grown up time to celebrate your love together would be a perfect idea for Valentine's Day weekend.
Dates to Note for Capricorn:
Any project involving speaking, writing, editing, teaching, or selling will be laden with opportunity and financial gain if accepted or done on or near February 26-28, the luckiest day of the year, due to Jupiter conjunct the Sun. So much good will flow from the endeavor you start then!
Brainstorm for ideas on any project on February 5-6 when you come up with ideas that stun others, and you, too! They'll be brilliant!
Romantically, if attached, the eclipses in January brought news. If you broke up last month, you may want a very quiet month in the company of friends.
A short trip is very likely for Valentine's Day, February 14, and would be an ideal way to enjoy your love.
Finances may get a boost in the second half, after the new moon February 13. You've had very high expenses lately - this new moon will help you catch up and improve your cash flow. Those who work in the arts will be most favored.
Be clear about financial management and read all fine print in any deals you make. You may not completely understand some of the ramifications, due to Neptune's position.
Fantastic financial news could hit on February 26-28, some of the best ever! Again, it won't be earned income but income that comes in other ways.
Venus will tour your house of communication from February 11 to March 7, insuring you will like the project you work on.
Sign a contract on February 26-27. You will make money and see growth if you do.
A trip, or an overseas deal or one involving academia, will come to fruition at the full moon February 28 plus or minus four days. Finances will be discussed at this time too, but it's all-good!
Best romantic dates: February 13-16 is your very best. Also: February 4, 5, 20, and 24-28.
