Leo
Leo (Ruling Planet: Sun; Element: Fire) Another energetic fire sign, you are known for your headstrong pride and dominating ego. But the Lion can also be quite affectionate, not to mention a loyal friend who demands the loyalty in return. In fact, you demand a lot of things. You can be impatient and arrogant when others won’t alter their opinions at your request, but are sensitive to anything that could wound your ego. You like to talk big game, Leo, but more often than not, you go home crying.
Aquarius, the sign opposite to yours in the Zodiac, is prominent in the stars this month, which, for you, pretty much means you’ll be blessed with a sense of stability and balance to your life this February… finally. Communicative Mercury enter the air sign will create the perfect environment for a conversation, and Venus crossing into Aquarius on the 16th will only add fuel to your fire, so to speak. Make your relationships a top priority. It’s also a good time to make a commitment to someone, and when a full moon in Virgo occurs on the 22nd, you should finalize any disputes and either commit to or quit any extra work you’ve taken on recently. You’ve just got to remember to have the confidence to commit to these decisions, both personal and financial.
Your February Trax:
The first track of Philly punk band Cayetana’s LP Nervous Like Me should be all the musical validation you need in order to tackle the conversations you need to have this month. Teens of Style by Car Seat Headrest is another upbeat, lo-fi album that could create the ultimate space you need to make commitments. If you’re looking for something a little sharper, both instrumentally and lyrically, try staying active while absorbing Why Choose, the 2015 LP by Shopping. If you’d rather laze in bed with the music turned up, settle on down with the Brooklyn-based Chumped LP, Teenage Retirement.
