Astrology for week of 2/17-2/23
Monday 2/17 MOON DAY
Moon in Libra trine Sun in Aquarius
Moon enters Scorpio at 7:18pm
Libra Moon for most of the day ruled by Venus in Aries and the last full day of Aquarius season. We could be feeling attuned more to our immediate needs and desires within our relationships, having more courage to take the lead and go for it. With the Sun at the last degree of Aquarius we could also be feeling a bit restless and ungrounded, follow gut instincts today and do something for yourself.
Tuesday 2/18 MARS DAY
Mars rx in Cancer at 17*
Moon in Scorpio square Pluto in Aquarius and trine Mercury in Pisces
Sun enters Pisces at 5:06am EST
Mars hardly moves this weeks as he is preparing to station direct this Sunday. As Mars has been venturing through cancer we’ve been having a very emotional experience. Part of this is learning what to do with our emotions or what to do with ourselves when we’re in this emotional space. We’re learning how to self-nurture and emotionally self-regulate as well as learning emotional responsibility and accountability. A lot of this real time learning has come from triggers, there of course to aid this evolutionary experience. Combined with the current Pisces stellium I think that we will be employing acceptance and forgiveness this week, for ourselves and others, as we continue to face and process our emotions. Life isn’t happening to us it is happening for us.
Wednesday 2/19 MERCURY DAY
Mercury in Pisces at 9*
Moon in Scorpio trine Mars rx in Cancer, trine Saturn in Pisces and opposing Uranus in Taurus
Today Mercury is in a disseminating square to Jupiter in Gemini, the exact square being tomorrow. Within this disseminating phase we could be feeling lots of mental agitation and unrest, also fogginess and confusion; our maps are outdated for this current journey. So we could be facing some personal (or societal jeez) delusions based off expectations when we expect life and others to behave in a certain way, disillusionment of truth; we see the errors/inconsistencies in something or someone we’ve believed. With Mercury being the South Node ruler it is very much part of the current curriculum that we need to pay attention and adjust/improve our mental illusions and delusions. Where have you been in denial and lying to yourself? Scorpio moon today, we’re facing our emotional psychic sludge, our fears. Question the inner and outer narratives today
Thursday 2/20 JUPITER DAY
Jupiter in Gemini 11*
Moon in Scorpio trine Neptune in Pisces
Moon enters Sagittarius at 7:54am EST, square Sun in Pisces and sextile Pluto in Aquarius
Mercury in Pisces last quarter square to Jupiter in Gemini
The Moon in Sag today aids the emphasis on the need for authenticity and truth today. We’re being confronted with our illusions and delusions, with our denial. This last quarter square is about changing our mind, being more realistic and honest with ourselves. Heavy need for discrimination, ask questions, use critical thinking. This is all a uncomfortable and humbling task, be gentle with yourself and others today
Friday 2/21 VENUS DAY
Venus in Aries at 9*
Moon in Sagittarius opposing Jupiter in Gemini, square Mercury and Saturn in Pisces and trine Chiron in Aries
There could still be a fair amount of mental aggitation and restlessness from the Mercury/Jupiter square, Moon in Sag we’re working on emotional honesty and authenticity. Venus in Aries, we’re all a bit more reactive, more aware of our subjective feelings and needs. We could also be feeling a bit fiery, Venus in Aries and Mars in Cancer were self-protective. So how can you take care of yourself through the fear and confusion of current events? How can you cultivate the bravery and courage to participate and make choices today?
Saturday 2/22 SATURN DAY
Saturn in Pisces at 19*
Moon in Sagittarius square Neptune in Pisces
Moon enters Capricorn at 6:08pm EST
On this Saturns day we have a Pisces stellium pointing us toward faith and forgiveness. This week has been about facing the reality of our expectations, ideals and delusions and with the South Node now in Virgo we’re being made aware of where we’ve been in denial and avoiding those problems and issues (Mercury in Pisces ruling the SN). We can find forgiveness for oursleves and others in that we’re all just doing the best we can in this wild human experience? Can you find faith that there is a greater plan and everything is working out as it’s been programmed?
Sunday 2/23 SUN DAY
Sun in Pisces at 5*
Moon in Capricorn sextile Pisces Sun and square Venus in Aries
Mercury in Pisces disseminating trine to Mars in Cancer
Mars in Cancer station direct at 8:59pm EST at 17*01”
This eve Mars finally stations direct! It’ll take a few days for him to pick up speed and we’ll be in the retrograde shadow until May so it may take some time for us to feel like we’re finding our confidence and our forward momentum. As Mercury trines Mars today maybe we can find some deeper meaning and higher understanding, love and surrender. The potential for healing and forgiveness is turned up to 11. For those on the spiritual journey this transit could bring a mystical magical exeriance, I would definitely make a lot of quiet reflective space for source to come through today. May all beings experience a moment of love and peace today.
