Your Mars & Venus in Aquarius Horoscope
What these transits mean for your goals, love life, and finances
Since January, Venus and Mars have been traveling side-by-side in earth sign Capricorn, urging us to put our noses to the grindstone and get sh*t done—both in life and in love. While the dual earth transits have (hopefully) helped you get organized and practical with your energy, affections and wallet, they were also kinda boring. (No offense to my Capricorns out there.) Well, life’s about to liven up because on Feb. 13 & 16, both Mars and Venus enter Aquarius, bringing a shift in energy and sociability.
With Mars, the planet of action and energy, leading the charge on Feb. 13, your actions and drives are imbued with the revolutionary spirit of Aquarius. During this transit, you’re encouraged to break free from conventional constraints and embrace innovation and progress in your goals and pursuits. Work and career take on a new dynamic as you find yourself drawn to endeavors, businesses, or extracurricular endeavors that promote social change and advancement. Mars in Aquarius fuels your passion for humanitarian causes and pushes you to collaborate with like-minded individuals to effect positive change in your communities and beyond.

Work that doesn’t stimulate your imagination or give you an opportunity to socialize with other people will be really hard to do during Mars in Aquarius. Mars is an enlivening planet that brings lots of action and momentum to the area of life ruled by the sign through which it transits. It can also bring swells of egotism, competitiveness, aggression, and/or conflict to that same area. So, pay attention to the area of your chart / life ruled by Aquarius; Mars is moving through this area, simultaneously enlivening, energizing, and making you a tad more aggressive. Good thing we have Venus in Aquarius moving into this arena in a few days (Feb. 16, to be exact).
Where Mars pushes, provokes and asserts, Venus softens, pacifies and puts an emphasis on pleasure and harmony. In Aquarius, though, Venus adds a touch of eccentricity and experimentation to matters of the heart and finances. As the planet of love and values traverses this unconventional air sign, you’re invited to explore new ways of relating and expressing affection. Witty banter and trivial conversations reign supreme during this time, as airy Aquarius is driven mad with lust by any and everything related to the mind.
Relationships may take on a more experimental and liberated tone, as you prioritize freedom and authenticity in your connections, and get curious about what freedom and authenticity mean to YOU. Similarly, your approach to finances undergoes a shift, with a greater emphasis on unconventional investments and innovative money-making opportunities. Whether dating, single, married or aiming to make more money, Venus in Aquarius encourages you to break free from traditional norms and embrace your unique desires and preferences. Of course how, precisely, Mars & Venus in Aquarius are impacting your goals, relationships and wallet, depends entirely on your Rising Sign. So, without further ado:
