Weekly Forecast - February 1 – 7, 2026, Kelly M Beard, 3 February 2026

2/1 • LEO Full Moon:

The Leo Full Moon sheds light on the disparities between your true self, the image you hold of yourself, and how others perceive you. It serves as an annual self-esteem check-in, exposing any issues with self-love, self-value & self-worth, revealing your tendency to function from an external viewpoint rather than an internal one. This luminary event might uncover unchecked ego patterns or neglected childhood wounds, which could manifest as inner unrest or personal dissatisfaction. Rediscovering the art of play, a fundamental aspect of being human often forgotten due to societal conditioning, is essential. Integrating joy & playfulness into daily life becomes a joyous exploration during the Full Moon energies. It invites you to experiment with creative ideas, envision potential evolutions of your Self over the next 6-12 months, and consider the role you play within your chosen community. Where can you best radiate your essence and share your light moving forward? Each year, this phase allows for the release of negative patterns & outdated aspects of Self, making space for a new, evolved version of you to emerge and positively impact the world. It is a moment to embrace what you love and let go of anything incongruent with your genuine self, allowing your authentic essence to shine brilliantly. This purging process brings a lighter heart and reconnects you to a revitalized vision for the future.

2/3 • Uranus Direct in TAURUS (until April 25th):

We have just completed this year’s annual Uranus Retrograde, and for the final time in Taurus. The personal planets will interact with Uranus every year so we can consciously co-create with them. That work has been in the Taurus Dept for the last 7+ years and now that is shifting to Gemini. Every year’s annual retrograde is a special time to assimilate the changes you’ve been going through. Uranus is a collective planet and so affects many people and takes 7-years to accomplish its mission in each sign. During 2018-2026, it has been in the process of awakening the Taurus House/Area of Life and stimulating any of your planets in Taurus/Scorpio or Leo/Aquarius (by default). The last 4-5 months have revealed what aspect of your life needs the most awakening and/or vitality. This will be an annual process that you can consciously co-create with if you’re paying attention. Uranus wakes us up & shakes up our routine with a sudden shock of some sort and it is up to you to not fall back asleep or back into the old patterns. There is a shift in the values & priorities that support the newly awakened Emergent Self and how that works on the ground, in your body, on the Earth, in real time. So use this annual energy to wake up dormant resources within you and learn how your electro-magnetic field really works. It takes conscious practice and dedicated focus when working with your own power & magnetic field. We are cultivating a whole new way of living in our bodies and on the planet.

Imbolc • Candlemas • Cross Quarter • Aquarius Gate of Power • is the second of 8 Sacred Seasons ~ Inviting a Renewal of the Light. The Light is returning, the days are getting longer and the nights are getting shorter. Cross Quarters are considered the *Gates of Power* ~ the in-between ~ the mid-point between the Solstices & Equinoxes. In agriculture, this is called the *Sweet Spot* ~ the thin membrane between Seed & New Life. This particular one inspires a Purification through Fire & Water that will help you prepare space for new energy to flow through. This is the season that you commit to the process of nurturing the intentions that you set for the new year around Winter Solstice. In order to create anew, often, sacrifices, choices & changes must be made. This time of year also coincides with several celebrations, when many cultures give up something cherished in an effort to cleanse, clean & clear a space for renewed growth, within your Being and your environment. This is about clearing a space for the *new* to come in. (You should prepare as if it has already arrived.) This season will culminate in 6-months (August) with the Leo Gate of Power/Cross Quarter/Lammas, so what would you like to express or create by then? What are you willing to give up to further your goals? What are you willing to fight for in order to preserve or protect it? What relationships are you cultivating at this time?

2/5 • Mercury (lower mind & ideas) ~square~ Uranus (Higher Mind & awakening):

This energy presents a challenge by urging you to broaden your consciousness, prompting a shift in your thinking or thought patterns and encouraging new & different responses to information, as it is presented. Uranus triggers sudden realizations, personal revelations & revolutionary concepts, ideal for adventurous souls who tend to thrive on change & innovation. However, if you are deeply attached to routines and the predictability of plans, this energy might cause frustration, taxing your nervous system as things appear sudden (even though they have more likely been simmering beneath the surface for some time now). Flexibility & openness become crucial, requiring an adjustment to accommodate the heightened mental activity & information influx—although controlling it entirely might prove challenging. Consider recalibrating your personal filters by spending time in Nature, allowing yourself to process thoughts at your own pace & clear your mind. This period fosters immense inspiration, innovation & creativity, encouraging you to tap into these energies. Yet, be mindful that anything initiated now may need a review later, prompting a meticulous examination of the details of any revelations or creations. You are merely scratching the surface—this phase emphasizes revelation & awakening, eventually leading to the practical logistics and effective actions required to materialize your ideas, dreams & visions.

2/6 • Mercury Enters PISCES (until April 14th):

Mercury in Pisces activates our imaginations, for better or worse. Remember that using your imagination to imagine the worst-case scenarios is a poor use of this powerful gift. The imagination is another way that your Soul talks to you and when anything is moving through Pisces, especially the Messenger who naturally moves so freely between realms, we have access to some potent creativity & new visions for the future. Take advantage of this energy to clarify what New Vision you want to step into as we approach the first Retrograde of the new year when you will have to pause, reflect & re-think things in your Pisces House/Area of Life. If you imagine doom & gloom, it is more likely to manifest. If you imagine breakthroughs with relationships & resources then you will create more of that. This time in Pisces is going to have its own additional caveats. Your intuition & imagination will be involved, so try to connect fluid language with vivid imagery – the Pisces-way. Keep in mind nothing is linear or logical about Mercury in Pisces, this is All-Spirit or Other-Worldly. So any spiritual healing work is tremendously supported by this energy. Check-in with your own beliefs, dreams & fears. And make time to be in Nature, under the Sky, that always gives the Monkey Mind a break, but especially during Pisces time, each year, we are supposed to be dreaming up the action plan that we will execute & embody once Mercury moves through its Retrograde and into Aries. And don’t forget the best thing about this energy is that it is totally easier to commune with your Angels, Ancestors, Orishas & Animal Spirit Guides when the planet of communication is in the sign of other realms, imagination, creativity, dreams & mysticism. It’s the best time for Divinations and consulting with your personal Council to find out what will be supported throughout the rest of this year. One final note, this is a really good time to recalibrate your Mental Boundaries – meaning: watch your input & output levels and bring your mental health back into balance, especially before a Retrograde that is going to ask you to rewire what you are dreaming into existence.
