The real excitement, though, arrives two days later on February 3, when Neptune takes a giant step into Pisces - where it will remain until 2025. Aside from a brief stint last year, this is the first time since 1848 that Pisces has hosted its ruling planet. Neptune is one of the slow-moving outer planets, and whenever one of these powerhouses changes signs, it represents the start of a new era. And when a planet moves into its own sign, this influence becomes even stronger. In the case of Neptune in Pisces, you'll experience a surge of creativity, especially in the realms of poetry and music, as well as a renewed interest in spirituality and exploration. You'll feel a strong urge to follow your dreams and turn your idealistic visions into reality ... though you may lack the necessary energy at times. Ultimately, Neptune's greatest strength may be in softening the blow of some of the harder-edged planets currently holding sway -- this is a planet known for bringing everything into a gentler, dreamier focus. Naturally, no dream could be complete without a bit of romance, right?

With Venus and Mars partnering up on the first day of the month to add passion and romance to your life, February is certainly off to an enthusiastic start!
Of course, this transit will require some deft balancing work, as romantic and affectionate Venus stands opposite the cosmos from dynamic, energetic Mars. Fortunately with these planets, if you don't get the equilibrium quite right, you'll still have a pretty good day. But if you can temper Mars's exuberance with Venus's gentle touch -- and vice versa -- you'll enjoy a phenomenal day!
