AQUARIUS
The winter cold will test your buds, but a new moon brings with it an exciting opportunity for personal growth, in your stem and in your leaves.
Luck Days: 6, 12
Off Days: 5, 19

---

PISCES
If you live in a warm climate, like on a west-facing windowsill, stay on good terms with water. When a run-in with a scorching sun tests your patience on the 19th, you will need it.
Sunny Days: 17, 19
Flowering Days: 22, 25

---

ARIES
Mars is in Scorpio until March 5th, which means you will be stronger but at the same time more attracted to crisis. Watch out for the cat, whose potent feline energy may effect you during a moment of instability ‘she ‘ll chew up your flowers and blow chunks in your soil.
Blight Days: 7, 10, 24

---

TAURUS
Taurus, Taurus, Taurus ‘a part of you which you thought had wilted long ago will spring forth again with a renewed vitality. Now is the time to shed your pale, brown leaves. Make a courageous move ‘pruning shears are your friend, my friend.
Rot Days: 2, 19
Fresh Days: 5, 21, 28

GEMINI
Botanists say this month is a good time to organize your finances, and by finances, of course, they mean sunlight and water.
Seedling Days: 15, 19, 20

---

CANCER
The new branch that you have been holding off on is finally ready to grow. Bloom, Cancer, bloom! Just don ‘t grow too big for your pot. Bigger pots cost, like, twice as much!
Cucumber Beetle Day: 14

---

LEO
A darkness descends: Your owner will forget to water you for ten brutal days this month. While expansive Jupiter is retrograde, it is important to remember forgiveness.
Dry Soil Days: 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24
Thirsty Days: 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24

---

VIRGO
You will start to see your social life pick up when your caregiver decides to try talking to you because she heard that ‘s good for plants. A mid-month deep clean of the apartment may lead to new neighbors and even pot-mates, but stay away from Aries, who is not to be trusted (primarily because of that weird, powdery fungus stuff on its leaves).
Aphid Days: 10, 11
Mildew Days: 23

---

LIBRA
Last year was a bit of a lazy one for you, dear Libra, but now is the time to flower. Start today. The natal Sun is in conjunct Pluto, so it may be slow going at first, but your objectives are true. With any luck, it will be time to repot by May.
Rainy Days: 3
Aromatic days: 7, 10

---

SCORPIO
Beware of loose soil, Scorpio. A business opportunity will present itself towards the end of the month in the form of synthetic fertilizer, but remain patient until the stars shine on your side of the sill in the form of peat-free compost.
Pungent Smell Days: 22, 23, 24

---

SAGITTARIUS
Relationship changes on the 7th will have you thinking about propagation. The positive emanations of Pluto suggest it ‘s time for one plant to become several, and for the extra plants to be a nice gift for relatives.
Foliage Days: 12, 16
Pest Days: 18

---

CAPRICORN
The moon is in your sixth house of health and minor obligations, and your roots have grown long far too long. Have you considered becoming an air plant?
Wilty Days: 5, 6, 24
