Aquarius Aquarius
February 12 ~ February 26
“Everything is energy and that’s all there is to it. Match the frequency of the reality you want and you cannot help but get that reality. It can be no other way. This is not philosophy. This is physics” (Albert Einstein). Einstein was a Pisces, although he sure sounds like an Aquarius. While he was a brilliant scientist, he also coined the phrase that imagination was more important than knowledge, so clearly, he used his. Mercury is in your sign but will enter Pisces on Valentine’s Day, Friday, Feb. 14, and while it will open your heart, it will also open your field of dreams. Less thought, followed by action is the advice for the month, as Mars retrograde in Cancer has you overthinking just about everything you have been feeling. The best antidote is the act of do-ing. Put yourself in motion, even if only inner action is possible. Initiate a daily walking meditation in the woods or along the shore. Be kind to a stranger, make someone’s day, and it will make yours. To move the energy, you must move, and it will open the trap door that has held in the unwanted. Mercury proceeds to flawlessly trine Mars in Cancer the same day that Mars stations direct, Sunday, Feb. 23, offering you the gift of resolution as well as a solution. We entered February with Mercury in Aquarius, Jupiter in fellow air sign Gemini stationing direct on Feb. 3, and the following day, loving Venus entered compatible fire sign Aries. This, to give you that fresh-start feeling buzz. Very likely, February already feels far better than January. At least it holds the promise for life to improve. Venus in Aries is slowing her pace, however, due to an approaching retrograde on March 1 ~ April 12, which will have the effect of increasing the quality of your ideas and ability to reach others with an innovative message. Venus Rx will also be slowing down your mind and bringing your attention to what matters most in any given moment. Without this, the speed of your thoughts will have you feeling as if you are in multiple worlds at once. Mars clears his shadow from the retrograde on May 1, and Venus clears her shadow mid-May, which gives you some idea about what’s in store for the next three months. I would say life is a work in progress, but also a loaded energetic scene for the unimaginable. April promises to ignite maximum transformation as your ruler Uranus is supremely positioned to Mars in Cancer and a stellium of planets in Pisces. It’s wise to plan ahead, even exciting to look forward to it, although we can never predict the winds of change when Uranus is involved. For now, be in your center, soften your footsteps and stay open. A world of something very different is on its way.
Brainstorm the best of what it can be, and you will play a positive role in its unfolding!
