Astrology February 19, 2014: Roadblock – Mercury Square Saturn

astrology for february 19 2014, communication, Mercury square Saturn, Moon in Libra

“As soon as we start putting our thoughts into words and sentences everything gets distorted, language is just no damn good—I use it because I have to, but I don’t put any trust in it. We never understand each other.” Marcel Duchamp

COSMIC WATCH:

Retrograde Mercury square Saturn, Moon in Libra

The proverbial saying “silence is golden” may be an effective, diplomatic strategy (Libra Moon) to avail ourselves of today, particularly if we find that we’re in an awkward or difficult situation in which we’re just not mentally connecting with somebody, for whatever reason, and we intuitively sense that, no matter what we do or say, we’re likely to remain at an impasse (Saturn). It’s like one of the roads of the two-way conversation is closed, so what would be the point in trying to journey down it?

Also, it could be that if we’re willing to wait it out or redirect our focus, the road will re-open again shortly, and the conversational flow with be smoother. Too, often there’s great wisdom and reassurance in simply honoring the natural rhythm of things versus feeling that we must force issues in order to meet some arbitrary timetable or expectation of ours. “Speech is for the convenience of those who are hard of hearing; but there are many fine things which we cannot say if we have to shout.” Henry David Thoreau

Who, to you, epitomizes the perfect communicator?

Famous February 19 Birthdays:  Seal, Smokey Robinson, Lee Marvin, Victoria Justice

“We’re very physical creatures and we worry about how we look sometimes more than our spiritual selves.” Smokey Robinson

Enjoy your Wednesday!

Astrology February 18, 2014: Peace Within – Sun Enters Pisces

astrology for february 18 2014, connectedness, horoscope february 18 2014, Moon in Libra, sun enters pisces february 18 2014, unity

“The cosmos is within us. We are made of star-stuff. We are a way for the universe to know itself.” Carl Sagan

COSMIC WATCH:

Sun Enters Pisces, Moon in Libra

The Sun’s ingress into “contemplative” Pisces, the last sign of the zodiac, reminds us of our universal roots, where there are no boundaries or divisions, only an enduring interconnectedness with all life forms. The Moon in “relationship” Libra eloquently restates this “togetherness” theme, as does the Nodal Axis shift today, from Scorpio-Taurus into Libra-Aries.

Too, it’s often tempting to think of the concept of unity as something that begins ‘out there.’ That only when others get their act together will there finally be a chance for all of us to peacefully co-exist. Of course, in reality, it doesn’t quite work that way, does it? Unity has always been an inside job. Something that can only come about once we have surrendered our inner turmoil and supplanted it with a reassuring, unyielding peace within. A state of being that allows us to love ourselves and others, unconditionally. “I can only love you most when I love me best.” Steve Maraboli

What is inner peace for you?

Astrology February 17, 2014: Build A Better Mousetrap? Mercury-Uranus

astrology for february 17 2014, efficiency, horoscope february 17 2014, Mercury semisquare Uranus, michael jordan birthday, Moon in Libra, Moon in Virgo

“Each of us is an artist of our days; the greater our integrity and awareness, the more original and creative our time will become.” John O’Donohue

COSMIC WATCH:

Void of course Moon in Virgo shifts into Libra at 1:23 pm EST, Mercury Semi-square Uranus

The work week commences with the Moon at the end of “methodical” Virgo. Ideal for wrapping up old business. We will also want to continue channeling our “inner efficiency guru.” Additionally, the Mercury-Uranus alignment may poise us to act a little like the wacky scientist in a lab, conducting quirky experiments that no one else quite gets, especially since this is the Sun’s last full day in “tinkering” Aquarius. Meantime, the lunar shift into “balancing, sociable” Libra adds a refreshing, unifying feel to the day. “Treat everyone you meet as though they are the most important person you’ll meet today.” Roger Dawson

What would you like to see invented? A better mousetrap? Stiletto heels that are actually good for the feet? How about socks that are hole-proof? 🙂

“I wish my stove came with a Save As button like Word has. That way I could experiment with my cooking and not fear ruining my dinner.
” Jarod Kintz

Astrology February 16, 2014: Speak Your Piece – Mercury Trine Mars

astrology for february 16 2014, fear of public speaking, horoscope february 16 2014, mercury trine mars, Moon in Virgo

“Much unhappiness has come into the world because of bewilderment and things left unsaid.” Fyodor Dostoyevsky

COSMIC WATCH:

Retrograde Mercury trine Mars, Moon in Virgo

We’re more confident in rallying behind our ideas today, or wanting to say what’s on our mind. Also, a positive time for buckling down and tackling projects that require attention to detail, including those that involve perfecting a skill or craft. May also want to put editing on that list.

Too, Mercury-Mars is a plus for public speaking, although it appears that the majority of us will probably be choosing to pass on that particular option, if statistics are correct. It’s estimated that approximately 75% of us suffer from ‘glossophobia,’ a technical term given for the severe fear of public speaking.  In fact, public speaking is deemed to be the greatest fear a person can have, even surpassing the fear of death! Why is that, I wonder? Could it be because most of us fear humiliation? Or, is it because we lack faith in our ideas? What do you think? Are you with the majority here?

Astrology February 15, 2014: Shift Perspectives – Mercury Conjunct Sun

astrology for february 15 2014, horoscope for february 15 2014, Mercury conjunct Sun, Moon in Virgo, perspective

“To change ourselves effectively, we first have to change our perceptions.” Stephen R. Covey

COSMIC WATCH:

Intellectual Mercury (retrograde) conjuncts the Sun in “innovative” Aquarius, an aspect that can help us to shift or adjust our perspectives. Sort of like looking through a kaleidoscope and rotating the angle of the lens, we are more receptive, maybe even eager, to sampling different points of view, or taking in new information.  The Moon’s entrance into “analytical, logical” Virgo (2:58 am EST) also adds some positive foundational glue here. Virgo is one of two signs ruled by the planet Mercury (the other is Gemini).

“A misleading perception or false belief is increasingly being perpetuated that the unconscious or the intuitive is all that really matters in any spiritual endeavor, and that the conscious, rational, logical, analytical mind is the mortal enemy of spiritual awareness and soul growth.” Anthon St. Maarten

Of course, with Mercury retrograde, it’s possible that we may later change our mind about something that we decide today, but instead of recoiling at this possibility (a draining perspective), why not celebrate the fact that we have the power to choose our illustrious thoughts in the first place? Such a wonderful option that many of us take for granted.

Where do you think you might presently be stuck in your thinking?

Astrology February 14, 2014: A Full Moon in Leo

14 Friday Feb 2014

astrology for february 14 2014, Carolyn Myss, full moon in leo, horoscope for february 14 2014, inner critic, Jack Benny, Moon square Saturn

“The moment you doubt whether you can fly, you cease for ever to be able to do it.” J. M. Barrie, Peter Pan

COSMIC WATCH:

A Full Moon in “self-confident, theatrical” Leo (6:53 pm EST) symbolically encourages us to heroically “own our performance” on the stage of life, regardless of what the critics and others may have to say about us (the Full Moon’s square to “evaluating, censoring” Saturn); something that is not always very easy for many of us to do, in practice, with our ever fragile egos continually getting in the way. Included here, would also be ignoring or turning a deaf ear to the judgmental voice of our own “inner critic,” whose review is usually the one that we fear the most because it is normally the most scathing or flagellating.

Author and spiritual teacher, Carolyn Myss, says that only when we learn to purge “the insecure voices in our head that have authority over us,” will we be able to develop self-esteem and then be able to tune into the authentic voice inside of us, which is purportedly the true messenger of our soul. Myss insightfully adds that “this purge” is our “real spiritual journey.” It certainly is an ongoing challenge to subdue or cancel out much of the various familial, societal, and cultural conditioning, that begins bombarding us in early childhood and continues on through adulthood, a smothering legacy that can hold us hostage to a false or distorted sense of self. Fortunately, this Leo Full Moon today can aid us in re-aligning or re-awakening us to our natural passions and creativity, if we but do the work and go within.

On a lighter note, this lunation also deliciously sextiles “passionate” Mars, the planet of desire, in relationship Libra, hinting at the possibility that there may also be other delectable goodies in store, for at least some of us, this Valentine’s Day, besides the traditional heart-shaped box of chocolates, which, in itself, sounds wildly appealing to yours truly, being that I am presently unattached and a serious chocoholic. 🙂 The energizing Moon-Mars sextile also perhaps helps us to take some healthy risks in our interpersonal relationships, as well as possibly neutralizing the affects of the more confining or self-limiting Moon-Saturn square.

“And he took her in his arms and kissed her under the sunlit sky, and he cared not that they stood high upon the walls in the sight of many.” J. R. R. Tolkien

Other activities for a Full Moon in sunny Leo: do or say things that will help others to shine brightly; be generous with praise or compliments; show leadership; lavish affection on loved ones; include a fun spirit of fanfare in whatever you do; wear something bright or colorful; host a party; create videos; try your hand at acting; attend plays or movies; play in the snow. And, of course, wear big hair!

How might you stave off, or starve, your “inner critic” (Saturn), today and every day?

How important is it for you to hear applause?

How are you at giving and receiving love?

How loved do you feel in your heart, this very moment?

If you could have anyone in the world as your “Secret Valentine,” who would you want it be?

Famous February 14 Birthdays:  Hugh Downs, Florence Henderson, Jimmy Hoffa, Gregory Hines, Jack Benny.

“My wife Mary and I have been married for forty-seven years and not once have we had an argument serious enough to consider divorce;  murder, yes, but divorce, never.” Jack Benny

Happy Valentine’s Day and Full Moon Blessings!
