The end of January is your time to get away from it all, to retreat, rest, and recover. To prepare for your spotlighted return after February 18, when the Sun moves into your sign, and you feel the Spring even if no one else does.
You may even invent an illness to excuse your absence now – it’s okay!
Until mid-February you’re most successful BEHIND the scenes. Keep your lips sealed, and let your accomplishments speak for you. After February 18, you emerge big-time. Planet of love and beauty Venus enters Pisces January 26, and your looks will be off the charts. Venus stays in Pisces until February 20: so utilize this time! Not so much in person, because you need the rest and retreat, but in other forms: photos, podcast, etc. Show your beauty off.
I repeat: After February 18, you emerge big-time. February 18, 19, 20 should be wildly successful days.
It’s funny, you’re looking so great on the outside no one would ever know what you’re going through on the inside. For everything is going on below the surface this month. In the seclusion and solitude of your twelfth house.
In your twelfth retreat house you have a wealth of planets that are beneficent:
The energy and intention of the awesome Sun
The current Aquarius Moon
The beauty and charm of Venus
The brilliant communication and thought of Mercury after February 11
Stick-to-it Saturn of enduring legacy
And your twelfth house rules:
Retreats, getting away
Rest, sleep, dreams
Seclusion and Time Alone
Finding Your deepest self
Psychological recovery and healing
Healing and therapy: WHY do you sacrifice so much?
Your unconscious
Your imagination
Activating your psychic gifts
Your past
Buried sorrow
All inhibiting factors, including physical inhibitions
and places of confinement (hospitals, prisons, bedrooms, etc.)
In love and in business, partners are preoccupied, giving you this time to retreat and think things over. So that’s great – you won’t miss a thing.
Ask yourself: what do you really need for yourself?
The path will become very clear as February ends.
Just give yourself this month to meditate, dear Pisces!
In love, commitment is the theme. Attached Pisces, you lend a hand to your partner and you put a lot of work into your relationship. Single Pisces, you play the field before you find someone you really like. Or you choose to be alone this month.
There are great changes all around you. Many people are getting laid off work. You yourself may decide to add to or change fields.
Trust your deepest intuition to move forward – but only once you have given yourself the proper amount of time. Face your greatest fear, and you conquer the world. There is only true success ahead of you, Pisces.
Your last month has been a clunker on the head. You had to face stuff you didn’t want to. Own up to stuff, too.
The twelfth house also rules psychological healing and this is what February will bring to you.
You come out of February healed and trusted and confident and in control. And with creative ideas that will make you a fortune.
And you will see how truly loved you are. Just in time for Valentine’s Day!
Dear Fish, with major planets swimming in your unconscious zone (your twelfth house) it really is your most hidden self that the world is most interested in now. We know how you like to present yourself. Let’s have – and see – the trust of a child. Your inner child.
Which leads me right into talking about the asteroid Ceres, currently doing its loving thing in your eighth house of mutual monies / resources with others, including inheritances and taxes with family. That hasn’t been easy, has it? (I’m sorry.)
Ceres is all about nurturing – the nurturing you got when you were young and the nurturing you give yourself now as an adult. Some of you didn’t receive very good training, nor good examples from early family. So this month we look at how to make it better.
This February, the luck is in your second financial house, giving you some lucky breaks in your finances. Until May 16, you have this extraordinary luck here, so use it up. It won’t come around again for another 12 years. If you don’t use it, you lose it.
Know that you can do it. Remember there will be nobody like you ever again. Make the most of every molecule you’ve got as long as you’ve got a second to go.
All the planets are basically going towards YOU now — in the sign of Pisces — and the pressure is on!
But first – they’re still in your twelfth house of dreams and the unconscious – as this horoscope opens, and this tells you to rest / sleep, AND that your instincts and spiritual insight are to be trusted totally.
You may be feeling a little invaded now, particularly when it comes to your significant relationship (s).
All that planetary activity in your twelfth house gives you a particular yen for some alone time.
Your unconscious is filled with the buried past, making your thinking massively powerful. For those of you engaged in artistic pursuits, there will be masterpieces.
And you will be whole and complete again. If you can just trust them. Which you can. We’ve all grown up, you know.
For those of you going through a hard time right now:
A love that was destroyed in your past will be recovered and set to rights.
As much as anything, this adds to your own self-love. You start to trust yourself more. Nasty self-sabotage begone. And this boosts your career more than anything directly professional ever could. You will be amazed.
Brava, Pisces dear. You’re all grown up, too.
Happy 2023, Awesome Pisces! I can’t wait to read you!

The snow is gone from cottage tops
The thatch moss glows in brighter green
And eves in quick succession drops Where grinning ides once hath been.
– February, John Clare
February is the dreariest month – except for Valentine’s Day, bang in the middle to bring us joy. And not only for sweethearts. For those of us who are alone, and more of us are, and by choice, than at any other time in human history, Valentine’s Day is about expressing your love. For your friends, for your fur babies, for your family, for – whomever, or whatever brings you love: express all of it! I believe we all have love in our hearts, and this is why I read you.
My job as astrologer / healer / palmist / psychic is to encourage and activate self-love, too. Very important: love YOURSELF on Valentine’s Day. Buy yourself flowers, take yourself to that movie / exhibit you’ve been dying to see, indulge in a luxurious bubble bath, treat yourself to a luscious dinner. Eat the ice cream. Why not? Love is love.
It is good. It is the best.
The New York Times dubbed me “Love Guru” in a half page article they did on me in 1999. It was published on Valentine’s Day. Here it is if you’d like to read it. https://madalynaslan.com/press/articles/the-new-york-times-article/
I still do this for clients, of course – everyone wants to know who their special person is and when they’re going to meet them – but, as many of you already know, I cover everything. (Viola, my lovely Virgo assistant, is waiting for your email…viola@madalynaslan.com.)

For your monthly, it’s notional – an increase of $1. This will take effect March. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised. Of course, you may opt out or cancel at any time.
