Your Weekly Horoscopes: January 30 to February 5, 2022

Holding space for other people isn’t easy, but the responsibility is all yours with the new moon in your friendship sector on the 1st. That said, more than anyone, you know that surrounding yourself with the wrong people takes a toll on your vitality. As your ruling planet Mars connects with spacious Jupiter on the 4th, you’re excited to put more energy into your spiritual hygiene and boundaries. Other people’s negative thoughts should not be holding so much space in your life.

You know what you need to get what you want, and once Mercury stations direct on the 3rd, you’re ready to get to work. What you’re doing is transformational, for you and for your loved ones. And what you’re setting up now should last for many years to come. Don’t get thrown off by your certainty and focus! Even the most changeable person needs an anchor.

The new moon in Aquarius on the 1st finds you signing contracts, taking out loans and opening a fresh line of credit (hopefully with plenty of sign-on perks).

Be patient as you likely won’t see the benefits of this partnership until the full moon in Aquarius six months from now.
