The Moon-Neptune opposition in the middle of the day gives us sensitivity, and confusion if we can’t integrate the mystical energy. Now that Mercury is retrograde until February 20th, this is a time for reflection, research and finishing old projects. This is not a time to go in a new direction, especially if an idea to do so arises during this period. Something unexpected and beneficial will happen today. Why, sometimes I’ve believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast. ~Alice in Wonderland
The apex Moon yod, with Chiron and Saturn involved, in the middle of the day, indicates that we are dealing with past wounds and karmic patterns. With the Moon in Virgo, this is a good time to clean up and get organized. Mercury goes retrograde at 10:54 am EST today. The good news is that Mercury, our thought and communication, stays in Aquarius (where it is considered exalted) for another month and half. Still be careful and patient in communication for the next 3 weeks. Mercury is in retrograde, which explains why cominucation is s,o dffmclut.. ~Anon

For a few days we will likely have ego conflicts with others. We need to guard against impatience and irritability. At the same time we may be able to transcend the small stuff, and focus on personal growth and learning. For another month and a half we will be tense and upset if we are not willing to make needed structural changes. This is the time to clear out what is not working in our life. Abandoning perfectionism is such a relief for us, and them. ~Kristine Carlson

It’s an intense, eventful day with lots of opinions circulating in the ether. It will be hard to disengage especially when people have fixed ideas. Developing a sense of playfulness can soften even the most opinionated. It’s important to see the big picture today and not get stuck in the weeds. Every individual matters. Every individual has a role to play. Every individual makes a difference.~Jane Goodall
With the Moon opposite Venus conjunct Pluto today our emotions are triggered in relationship to others. During this time we are invited to explore the depths our relationships. Undercurrents can surface and we have the opportunity to see how visibly complex relationships are. It’s a time to be courageous and investigate deep truths. The land is dearer for the sea,The ocean for the shore.~Lucy Larcom

With the Moon in Cancer home and family are foremost for the next few days. Internal reflections are more likely. These reflections help in dealing with stress resulting from unexpected pressures and battles. You are emotionally more resilient and in touch with your heart which also helps with dealing with sudden changes and disturbances. Inside-the laughter of friends. Outside the Moon & I alone.~Steve Sanfield
“Alas! O mother of great kindness! This mind has taken rebirth in this form of aggregates and elements! Today I ventured up to the palace roof and saw for the first time the suffering of the negative karma that is endured in this world. The suffering of birth, old age, sickness, and death is unavoidable! Alas! I can no longer bear the thought of it! Women in samsara are tied down, imprisoned, with no means to end their karma. It is like the relentless pounding of waves. All who are born in existence must experience such suffering as though they were a group of heartless fools! Now that I know such suffering exists, I cannot remain idle. However examined, samsara is something to seek liberation from. One cannot avoid the process of growing old. There is no way to prolong youth or prevent decrepitude. We are like grounded birds, unable to fly. We must struggle along like cripples, our limbs helplessly retracted. This suffering, however examined, is inescapable! “Now I must find the path to freedom. By the power of previous karma, the pain of illness, like being pierced a hundred times by a sword, must be endured. Without believing in the reality of karmic cause and effect, one will continue to think that obstacles and suffering are imposed by some external force. I must free all beings from this deluded misconception! We who are born in this world must, with each passing day, month, and year, experience the exhaustion of our lives. No one is capable of postponing the miseries of death when its time arrives. Even though one is surrounded by relatives and dear friends, one must enter the narrow passageway of death alone when life is snatched away, like a candle flame that flickers and dies, like a strand of hair pulled out of butter. Even parents, relatives and friends cannot grant refuge or protection from our solitary journey down the narrow paths of the bardo. Until karma is exhausted, all the suffering that must be endured is beyond comprehension. When death arrives, it is far too late to feel remorse. Our remorse and regret must then be laid bare before the Lord of Death50 himself. I wonder when this unavoidable event will happen to me? I cannot help but weep uncontrollably at the futility of our condition. As we fail to appreciate this opportunity, life passes by like a burst of wind. I shall ponder this until I cannot even stay at rest in my own bed due to the intensity of my fear and anticipation. Now my only thought is to go as quickly as possible to where I can practice the sacred Dharma. O parents of great kindness, please grant me your permission!”
Gradually you can extricate yourself from constraints. What binds you loosens. What is hard softens. There is pressure to deal with unexpected and sometimes unwelcome changes, but equally there are opportunities to go beyond you own comfort zone and venture into broader more inspiring spaces. Don’t let people pull you into their storm. Pull them into your peace.~Pema Chodron

This is a peak day to focus on responsibilities. We need to conserve our energies to do what needs to be done. This can be a time of professional advancement, or a time of feeling isolated and alone, or both. Our spiritually enhanced time with loved ones continues. In the second half of the day we are taken by fantasies and day dreams. Best to make big decisions before or after this time. Let us seek not fix to the blame of the past. Let us accept our own responsibility for the future. ~John F. Kennedy
There is an abundance of energy to tap into for the next week. The challenge is to stay grounded and not bite off more than you can chew. The Moon has entered Gemini.

Appreciation of beauty and artistic creativity are also enhanced. Think of all the beauty still left around you and be happy. ~Anne Frank
