New Moon in Aquarius, 6 February: your 10th house, annular solar eclipse
Saturday 6 February brings the New Moon at 17°37′ Aquarius, exact at 15:56 UTC, and for Taurus it falls in the 10th house, the house of career and reputation.
Astrology reads the New Moon as the time to start small and mean it, and in February the small start belongs to your 10th house, the Midheaven: a fresh start with an authority, a boss or your own sense of responsibility. In your 10th house this February, Aquarius makes the mood cool and forward-looking, concerned with the group and the future.
Astronomically the February New Moon is a solar eclipse, because it falls near one of the Moon’s nodes, the two points where its path crosses the Sun’s; for Taurus that happens in the 10th house. NASA classes it as annular; for Taurus its greatest moment, at 16:00 UTC at 17°37′ Aquarius, is the one the tradition counts, and on the central line the ring phase lasts up to 7 minutes 51 seconds. Astrologers read an eclipse here as a calling clarifying itself, sometimes through opportunity and sometimes through an ending that clears the path. Read the annular solar eclipse for Taurus in full.
A practice for the February New Moon: decide one thing you will stop doing because it no longer serves your calling.

Saturday 20 February brings the Full Moon at 2°05′ Virgo, exact at 23:24 UTC, opposite the Sun in Pisces, and for Taurus it lands in the 5th house, the house of romance, creativity and children.
At a Full Moon the Moon faces the Sun across the sky, and this February it faces it from your 5th house, Good Fortune, lighting a creative work reaching the point where it has to be shown or set aside. For Taurus this February, Virgo makes the mood useful and discerning, ready to sort and to mend. With the Sun across the chart in your 11th house, the February Full Moon speaks along the axis of the heart and the hope: personal joy and the friends and causes you belong to.
This Full Moon is also a lunar eclipse, a Full Moon close to the nodes, when the Moon passes through the Earth’s shadow, and for Taurus it darkens the 5th house. NASA classes it as penumbral, greatest at 23:13 UTC with the Moon at 1°58′ Virgo in Taurus’s 5th house, a faint shading rather than a red Moon. A lunar eclipse across the fifth house is read as the end of a romance’s first chapter, or a creative project finally let go.
A practice for the February Full Moon: tell someone you admire them, without needing anything back.
Planets changing sign or direction in February
Mercury crosses into Pisces on 1 February and so into your 11th house. Until 18 February, with Mercury in the house of the Good Spirit, the tradition reads a sociable spell, good for collaborations and for asking allies for advice.
Venus crosses into Capricorn on 3 February and so into your 9th house. Until 1 March, with Venus in the house of the God, the tradition reads a spell for pilgrimages of the pleasant kind and for love that widens your world.
Uranus turns direct in Gemini, your 2nd house, a slow turn spread over several days. The turn comes around 8 February, at 1°40′ Gemini, and since a slow planet’s turn is felt over weeks rather than on a day, the tradition would look for it in Taurus’s what you value and self-worth through February.
Mercury turns retrograde in Pisces, your 11th house: from the Earth it seems to halt and reverse, the start of one of its 3 backward loops this year, which ends on 3 March. The turn comes on 9 February, at 5°58′ Pisces, and Mercury retrograde in your 11th house is read as old friends reappearing and group plans needing to be renegotiated.
Mercury, moving retrograde, slips back into Aquarius on 18 February, returning to your 10th house until 18 March, a house it passed through before it turned. What it touched there in career and calling, and reputation is read as coming back for a second look before Mercury moves on.
On 18 February at 21:33 UTC the Sun crosses into Pisces, which for Taurus is the 11th house. Until 20 March, the Sun in your 11th house makes a month for friends, groups and hopes for the future.
Mars, moving retrograde, slips back into Leo on 21 February, returning to your 4th house until 14 May, a house it passed through before it turned. What it touched there in home, and family and roots is read as coming back for a second look before Mars moves on.
Love, work and money for Taurus in February
Venus begins February in Sagittarius, your 8th house, and enters Capricorn, your 9th, on 3 February, turning affection toward love across distance or difference, and the shared beliefs that hold a couple together. The Full Moon on 20 February falls in your 5th, the house of romance, creativity and children.
Mars, the planet of effort, moves from Virgo, your 5th, into Leo (your 4th) on 21 February, so the drive of the month shifts toward working from home, and the foundations a career quietly stands on. The New Moon on 6 February lands in your 10th, a house the tradition gives to career.
For money, no lunation or fast planet changes in your 2nd house (Gemini) or your 8th (Sagittarius) in February, so the tradition would put the month’s weight elsewhere and leave Taurus’s budgets to ordinary prudence.
