New Forecast for February and March from Maui with LoveAries: Half of the planets including mighty Jupiter and electrifying Uranus are moving into your twelfth house and you just might want to check out from reality and enter the Dreamtime. Your imagination is sure to be on fire so hang out somewhere where the folks appreciate far-out thinking. The veils will be thinner during this episode of your life and not everyone is able to understand you. Not that this situation should bother you very much, as jumping ahead of the rest of us to pioneer new territory is what your sign is all about. What the universe is asking of you is to create your own solution to the problems facing us all. You have depended upon yourself from Day One, so there is no reason in heaven or hell to look elsewhere for assistance. What you are is enough and it always has been.
Taurus: Face it--you are a bit concerned that all is not well. The US Treasury Department just issued a statement saying that the same road conditions that caused the first financial meltdown and ensuing crisis last year exist as much if not more now, only the car we are driving on that road is going even faster. Nothing unnerves your sign more than the whiff of financial instability. It is almost as if the powers that be are driving us all to ruin. No matter--there are options and alternatives should that occur. What is happening is that we are witnessing the end of an era, as "The Age of Materialism." grinds to a halt. While money in itself is not evil, our attitudes toward it (Many of us see it as the greatest power on earth) must change if we are ever to recapture the paradise we have lost So help us out and transcend your infatuation with stuff and instead begin discovering the joy of non-material forms of enrichment.
Gemini: If you do not make Herculean efforts to push your agenda out into the world during this cycle, you could be missing out on the chance of a lifetime. On second thought since Pisces is the sign inhabiting the super-powerful tenth house of worldly acclaim in your solar chart, you may not have to push anything at all. The sign of the two fishes is capable of marvellous feats of magic that intellectual investigation cannot explain. There is a catch. It all depends on which of the two Piscean fishes is operating in your life, as one is headed toward realms of divine love and wisdom while the other is still hung up on playing ego games. Since Jupiter's abundant energy is currently located in the Pisces part of the Sky (330-359 degrees on the ecliptic,) either way you go, your public life is about to grow larger. Some of your dreams may be on their way to becoming what we call reality, when they are really but a reflection of the brilliance you have put into the mirror of time.
Cancer: This month is your time to stretch your mind and ponder the mysteries of the universe or should I say the mystery of you. As you are doing that, you may wish to stay away from all kinds of negative vibes. That is always good advice as far as you are concerned and it is especially important now. Like most of us, you are probably doing everything in your power to cease being judgmental. There is a difference, however, between self-judgment and sitting in judgment of others. Take time somewhere during this period for some deep soul-searching. You may penetrate into one of life's greatest secrets--the person or thing you are judging is a quality of your internal perception. I recall a tour I took at the Louvre Museum in Paris. As the group stood in front of the Venus de Milo, a woman said to the guide that she did not see the beauty in this much acclaimed piece of sculpture to which the guide replied, "Madame, if you cannot see it, I cannot put it in you."
Leo: This period of time could materialize as a series of some of life's greatest moments or it could be a total washout. Either alliances are going to lift you up where you belong or you would be better off by yourself. If you are in love, your romantic life could take on a dimension that provides you with matchless experiences. If this does not materialize, reconsider your current choice of partners. You have so much to give (and now as much as ever) but that is no reason to keep hooking up with takers. The best approach is to be honest but diplomatic. Say what you have to say and say it gently. Be insistent yet not expectant for that is how you can bypass disappointment. Know that what belongs to you will come to you and what does not never will. Your life will flow organically once you make up your mind to call a halt to tampering with the process and instead allow the cosmic chips to fall wherever they may.
Virgo: Since you have a reputation for faultfinding, you can use this time to grow into a greater state of acceptance. It is a good bet that you will find that easier to do now. What is the sense of allowing others to get to you? The people who refuse to support you, whoever they are, have no place in your life. The people who do support you are beautiful. You probably are also dealing with some financial issues and some other trivial matters. While racking your brain and agitating your nervous system, you may come to the conclusion that you are doing something terribly wrong. Is some fearful feeling or sense of guilt causing you to punish yourself unnecessarily? If so send it away. Not only is it not helping your life; it is not helping others either.
Libra: This could be the time when you realize your true purpose in life. Perhaps you think you already know what that is, however, the sky patterns suggest that some of those old ideas of yours are about to dissolve. Mars in Leo going through the twelfth house of your chart is busting to cut loose and make a splash. Planetary energies, however, tend to turn inward in the twelfth and some of your best scenes are played out in private. Perhaps it is time for you to overcome a belief that if others are not watching your movie, it does not count for much. Nonsense! You are rehearsing for what may be your biggest assignment—one that will require attentive awareness and sharp acting skills. In a way, you have been acting all your life, using your charm to make life work out your way. Now you can use those attributes of yours in the most unselfish ways. When you do, the miraculous becomes an everyday fact in your life.
Scorpio: Often Sun in Scorpio people prefer to lurk in the background rather than be the person you greet at the front door. If that describes your self-image, have you got a surprise in store? This is a period of uncharacteristically extroverted behaviour in which you metamorphose into the life of the party. Not only that but it seems regardless of the occasion, you shape-shift into a form relevant to the time. Scorpio is ruled by Pluto, the higher octave of the power planet, Mars. Does that mean that Pluto is Mars plus? In a way, yes it does. It means as well that Scorpios, equipped with extreme sensitivity, are deeply and powerfully connected to subtle forces in other dimensions. Their ability to channel this extra-dimensional energy and transmit it with great intensity offers them powers they may be aware of yet have never defined. That is until now.
Sagittarius: Chances are you are a bit uneasy that your outgo is out of proportion to your income. More is flying out the door than is coming in. Yes, you have been in this situation before but the question is do you wish to keep going there? Your high standards refuse to allow you to settle for less--you do things right or you do not do them at all. OK then. One way to save your hard earned loot is to stay close to home and play it close to the vest. No, that is not how you usually operate but if you do so now, not only can you catch up to where you want to be, you may decide that less is truly more. The universe would love it if you did and this could be the launching of an additional career--the ushering in of a new way of perceiving the world through the spiritualization of consciousness.
Capricorn: This is a most auspicious period in your life. Saturn's present placement in the sky positions the ringed planet in your solar chart in its most elevated location where it can do the most good or the most evil. What makes the difference is decided by how you think. If you function within a win/lose paradigm where someone's gains has to mean someone else loses, Saturn shows its competitive side and you grow more than willing to do almost anything to get what you want. On the other hand if what you do is in service to the greater good, Saturn demonstrates its power in ways that are unmistakably incorruptible. You are already familiar with how to work with Saturn's energy in constructive yet harmless ways for the Saturn principle has the greatest affinity with Capricorn. Others complain about the tests and trials that Saturn subjects them to but you carry the inner knowledge that while the mills grind slowly, they grind exceedingly fine.
Aquarius: With Mars in your solar seventh house of relationship, you may be busy supporting a partner or associate, yet you do not always see eye to eye and there is the danger of becoming combative in relationship. If the waves of change in the world are about balancing Matter and Spirit in a more proportionate manner, then your sign being the vanguard of the zodiac ought to be at the forefront of this vital movement. Somehow though, you may be undergoing an internal conflict (although you may not identify it as such) in which you question if the bandwagon you have climbed upon is what is most needed and is it exactly what you had in mind for your current agenda. It is intriguing how with all your intelligence and your intuitive gifts, you sometimes operate at cross purposes. No worries, sometimes you have to see what it is not before you can feel secure remembering what it is.
Pisces: Five planets are positioned in the first house of your solar chart and you can do just about anything you want. Hopefully, what you do is a fair and honest reflection of who you are. At this time, you have a better than ever opportunity to rediscover yourself and delight in the fact that so much of what you thought diminished you and held you back, you can now see as a blessing. It is understandable that in your eagerness to trust the process and believe what you want to believe, you have been deceived and taken advantage of, however your willingness to look the other way without playing the blame game is what makes you the rare being that you are. Your gifts are precious and more than ever, they are ready for prime time.
