SUN: The sun starts the month out at 11.8 degrees of Aquarius and goes all the way to 9.1 degrees of Pisces by the end of the month. While the sun is in Aquarius, we are motivated by our hunger for knowledge, experience, and originality. Innovation is more important to us than convention.On the 18th the sun makes it’s way into the watery mutable sign of Pisces. With the Sun in Pisces, we are guided by altruistic feelings. We are less motivated to do than we are to feel, imagine, and dream. A “what will be, will be” attitude reigns, and we are guided by a sense of universal correlations. Signs that will notice this shift the most are Leo, Aquarius, and Pisces.

This means Venus is moving from her favorite position to one of her most challenging. Venus in Pisces is tender and affectionate, although hard to reach nevertheless, as there is a longing for something that is hard to define and hard to satisfy. Borders and boundaries blur under Venus in Pisces. The shadow side of this position is allowing ourselves to be victimized or deluded, as well as evasiveness.
