Aquarius (January 21st to February 18th)

“Drawing lines in the sand” is funny business in a lot of ways.  Generally, we tend to say that this means that you’re serious about setting up boundaries and sticking to your “guns.” But it’s sand. Sand ain’t the best substance to maintain lines, and those lines may not last more than a few hours if it’s near where the tide comes in. With some stellar configurations this week, like Venus’ entanglements with Uranus and Pluto, you may feel compelled to “draw lines” with some key folks in your life; but I suspect they’re already blurry or will be soon. So don’t go hard on attempting to make radical breaks or alliances. You could embrace this time as the moment where you’re entertaining conversations about particular things, like breaking up or building partnerships.  If you want something to stick, this ain’t the week to make it happen though.
