Things are circulating around finances for Aquarius as Mercury enters Pisces this month. Meanwhile, Mars meets your ruling planet, Uranus, the day before Valentine's Day this year. Together these planets may cause tempers to fly and tensions to raise. Our solution? A cooling and calming menu. We recommend our avocado-cucumber chilled soup as your Valentine's Day dinner starter!
Mars meets Uranus on February 13th, which means we'll be talking a lot about money. This is also a time to break away from your normal patterns and try something new! Skip the traditional surf and turf dinner, Pisces. Why not try a Moroccan tagine to spice things up this Valentine's Day?
Time for new projects, Aries! Get ready for things to shake up the status quo. However, with Mars entering Taurus on Valentine's Day, you'll be seeking security and feeling money conscious. Try a traditional, homey meal that won't break the bank, like pasta e fagioli, a hearty Italian pasta and bean dish.
It's your month, Taurus, and unfortunately, you're feeling absolutely wiped. You're just looking to dive into your own headspace and let your subconscious work. You may be craving the comforts of home with minimal stress, so go ahead and indulge in that three ingredient mac and cheese. It's your time, after all!
Your ruling planet Mercury will enter Pisces in the week before V-Day, making you think big in terms of your career and life. By February 14, you'll be wiped by thinking of the big picture. A detail oriented task will ground you and bolster your self-confidence. Try your hand at piping sugar cookies or making macarons.
You're in a chatty mood this month Cancer, as Mercury enters Pisces. When Mars enters Taurus, you're moving away from business to your party self! A quiet Valentine's Day in is not on the menu for Cancer this year. Pop that bubbly and consider celebrating with a crew. Maybe a pot luck is in order?
This February, you're looking for a deeper connection, Leo. You're looking forward to conversations that linger and embraces that melt. Right around Valentine's Day, you'll experience a new surge of energy and furthering of connections. Embrace this theme by a menu that encourages canoodling. We recommend slowly cooked mushroom risotto and a bottle of wine for a meal that only gets better with time.
When Mercury enters Pisces this month, communication will be key. While you favor a more abrupt and straightforward communication style, you may find that your partner is looking to delve deep and share their feelings with you. What better way to indulge that than an intimate dinner for two? Start that conversation with some old fashioned's and pop a meal in the slow cooker so you can eat when the time is right.
You may be feeling a little overwhelmed this month, Libra. As Mercury enters Pisces your communication and creativity collide! You may be inspired to find organization within your creative realm. When thinking of your V-Day menu, choose something fun and new (we recommend our burnt miso butterscotch chicken), but remember your mise en place and create a timeline to keep you relaxed!
Scorpios are about to ride quite the wave of energy for Valentine's Day! February 13th may very well be a momentous day with the introduction of a new project or the beginning of a personal journey. By Valentine's Day, you'll be feeling all fired up- we say go with something spicy. Cook that dinner with ancho chiles and go ahead and try that pinch of cayenne in your brownies!
Looks like things are shaking up for Sagittarius for Valentine's Day. You may experience an abrupt or shocking change on February 13, getting your mojo raring to go. On Valentine's Day, your energy will be off the charts, so maybe avoid that after-dinner espresso in lieu of some chamomile tea.
Mars and Uranus have a tumultuous meeting right before Valentine's Day for you, Capricorn. On the day of, however, your vibe will shift and you'll be ready for a good time- bring on the party! Rather than a formal dinner, your playful mood may inspire you to enjoy your own personal party spread. Bring on the finger foods and hit us up for some sweet shots to end the night!
