Valentine's 2023 forecast: Here's what the stars say about your month of love
This month, love is in the air… and it's not just because it’s Valentine’s Day!
February has some brilliant manifesting mojo to it, thanks in part to no planets being retrograde, plus some very love-specific planets transiting harmonious parts of our skies all month long.
Let's take a look at how this month's astrological energies will impact each of the signs. It can be helpful to read for both your Sun Sign and Rising Sign.
Aries (March 21 – April 19)
Aries, the potential for very deep connection (which isn't always your spontaneous sign's M.O!) happens throughout this month, especially until Feb. 20. Partnered Rams will feel a pull towards deeper, even soul-level connections and conversations with their partners. Single Rams may feel a pull or yearning towards deeper, soulmate-level love, and might even start doing manifestation work around that. Affirmations will be very powerful for you this February, partnered or otherwise. Jupiter is expanding your sense of self, and the first impressions people have of you, so this is the month to speak your ideal self into reality!
Taurus (April 20 – May 20)
Slow and sensual comes pretty natural to the steadfast Taureans, and this February, it's your time to lean into that. You may find that you've been focusing a lot recently on career and money growth, but this month, especially around the Feb. 15 mark, take time to invite in some romance with some Taurean earthly delights: good food and even luxury—slow, sensual, and seductive is the vibe!
Partnered Taureans will feel a lot of appreciation from their S.O. for this, and single Taureans might find that this month brings a welcome distraction from their current money/work focus.
Gemini (May 21 – June 20)
Single Geminis, if there was ever a month to be extra assertive in friend groups or networking apps, this is the month! You've got all kinds of cosmic support amplifying your naturally intelligent, chatty style. Chat that special someone up! You have the added benefit of Jupiter making first impressions of you extra shiny.
Partnered Geminis, this might be the month to start talking about long-term status with your significant other. If already established, this is also a great time to set joint goals together and create some structure around those goals. This is a power couple month for you!
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
Cancerians, this month, you might feel a little reticent about "putting yourself out there." You might be feeling a little more called to nurture yourself, your spirituality, and your personal zen zone. That being said, the conversations you do have, will likely facilitate very deep conversations with your significant other, and even reveal some parts about yourself and your special someone that you did not know before. If there are any mysteries you'd like unveiled about your special someone, this would be the best month to dive into conversations around them.
Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22)
Leos, you lucky loves! This is an especially powerful month for you to call in a new level of relationship and there are even potential long-term marriage discussions. The Sun and Mercury are ensuring your energy goes into relationships this month! Single Leo, not to worry, you will definitely not be left out. Relationships of all kinds this month will be leveling-up, including family and friends. Go forth and conquer, Leos!
Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22)
Virgos, you might have been feeling more focused on your career this year, and also up-leveling your health, fitness, and overall wellness routines. This February, however, you might find yourself surprisingly called to focus on relationships! Especially around Feb. 15, you might find yourself suddenly wanting to have deeper conversations with your loved one about the long-term plans of your current setup.
Single Virgos, you can decide whether you’d like to focus on your high-vibe, healthy uplevel this month, or lean into a special transit (again on Feb. 15) that gives you a very alluring mystery to others. Very magnetic for potential partners.
Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22)
Libra, similar to Leos, you are lit up with love this month! Feel free to dial up the romance, play up the drama (in a playful way) and let all eyes be on you. The Sun and Mercury are illuminating your fifth house of romance and creativity, so bring in the flair this Valentine’s season. You’ll also find you have a lot of luck in calling in relationships this month, so if you’re single, ‘tis your season! If partnered, you’ll easily be chatting about making things extra-extra official and long-term this month.
Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21)
Scorpios, this month you might be on the receiving end of a lot of romance and creativity. This might also be the month where a special someone will really feel and appreciate the depth that comes so naturally to your sign. Be sure to stay very authentic to yourself this month, Scorpio. You’ll never be too much for the right person. In fact, you might find that the right person just can’t get enough of you this love month! Partnered or single Scorpios, this is the month to embody your true depths, and share them with the person you have your eye on. They might vibe with you more than you expected!
Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21)
Sag, you might find yourself unexpectedly taking a lot of action in relationships this month! You’ll have a natural energy to spark, create or drive connections forward this month. You also have lucky Jupiter in your fifth house of romance and creativity, so be open to some lovely romantic surprises this month! You might even find that someone who feels like “home” to you, very comfortable and familiar, starts to shift into something a little more sparkly and romantic.
Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19)
Capricorn, your focus this month might be a lot more on expanding your idea of home, nurturing yourself, and up-leveling your health and wellness. Single and partnered Capricorns can embrace a very gentle, loving, and receptive style of communication with their S.O (or desired S.O) this month! This is an energy you can cultivate, so do your best to communicate with gentleness, and embrace a nurturing quality this month. It will serve you well in love.
Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18)
Aquarians have an extra burst of energy this month with their solar return! Single Aquarians might find that lightning strikes in the community and close friend groups around them. Aquarians, you also have a lot of receptive energy to money this month (that never hurts in the month of love right?). Both single and partnered Aquarians can embrace taking action in bold, romantic gestures this month. The energy is ripe for it!
Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20)
Pisces, your sweet, soulful nature will be shining extra bright and magnetic this month with your solar return and a New Moon in your sign on Feb. 20. Until Feb. 20, Venus—the planet of receiving love, creativity, and even money—is at home in your sign. You are magnetic for being YOU this month, sweet Pisces. Single Pisceans might find themselves attracted to someone who feels like “home”—nurturing and secure. Partnered Pisceans will be receiving a lot of attention for being just who they are. Authentic love at its finest!
Enjoy the celestial romance of this month!
