During the first week of February, Venus is in opposition to Mars which affects our relationships by causing us to having a higher regard for our needs versus the needs of our partner. The opposition effect typically means that there can be issues that come out which have you both pulling against each other in a classic tug-of-war battle. Since Venus rules Libra which is the sign of the scales, there is a strong need to seek out balance by reaching a compromise that keeps both of you feeling happy, loved, and valued by each other.

On February 7th, Saturn goes retrograde until June 25th. This is an ideal time to finish up projects that need to be finished once and for all. In many ways, we will need to finish these up before we can move forward and take the next step in our lives. Thus, this period is not for starting any new business projects or a new business for that matter. Just focus on what was started in the past and bring it to a successful conclusion. Otherwise, any new endeavor will typically be fraught with a lot of frustration and a constant need to reorganize and reprioritize. In addition, you'll still have the old project hanging over your head! Therefore, just remember to take care of the old stuff first and things will go much more smoothly for you.
