Theme: Artistic and Loving

One planetary combinations that has been going on in Aquarius is the close union of Mercury and Venus. This will stimulate our interest in art and beauty. We will also be more open in expressing our feelings to others. There is also a spiritual component to this energy. And scientific discoveries are likely. This continues to be a dangerous time as Neptune has entered Aries. Saturn will also enter Aries February 15th, which should add some sane restriction to warring ideas.

If we really knew the truth of suffering, there would not be one moment that we did not practice with the utmost compassion. ~Jetsunma Ahkon Norbu Lhamo

The Moon is void of course today from 4:53 pm until 7:10 pm EST. Do not make any big decisions during this time period

Theme: Uneasy then Confident

There is some unease for much of the day as the Moon inconjuncts Pluto, Mars and the Sun. Then in the evening the Moon unites with Jupiter which gives us a feeling of confidence. We feel good and are generous. We are more open to spirituality than usual. The back drop is still difficult as Saturn unites with Neptune. Neptune has entered the sign of Aries which is a mismatch. Let’s pray that those in power don’t idealize war now.

Our prime purpose in this life is to help others and if you can’t help them, at least don’t hurt them. ~H H the Dalai Lama

Theme: Stable but Rushed

The Moon is squaring the crowded energy in early Aquarius, particularly in the second half of the day. This will lead to feeling rushed, despite the fact that the Moon moves into Taurus just after mid day. Our emotions are exalted in stable Taurus, so we will have a more secure feeling. But be careful of rash actions and mistakes. Saturn is moving closer to Neptune so remember that things are not as bad as they seem.

Here now is the chance for wholesome deeds, … ~Shantideva

The Moon is void of course until 1:06 pm EST. Do not make any major decisions before then.

Theme: Power

The conglomeration of energy in early Aquarius continues today. The Sun, Mars and Pluto are tightly conjunct, which gives us a powerful opportunity to achieve what we want. We may need a physical outlet to avoid a fight response when we are challenged. This energy is a chance to look deeply into our lives and our goals. Then we can proceed to get what is best for ourselves and others. The Moon squares Jupiter especially in the mid to late day. This bolsters our mood but we should watch out for any tendency to be overbearing.

The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong. ~Mahatma Gandhi

The Moon is void of course today from 4:37 pm until 1:06 pm EST the next day. Do not make any major decisions during this time period.

Theme: Freedom?

With the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars and Pluto all in early Aquarius, Aquarian ideals such as freedom, equality, and innovation are all important to us now. The problem is that Pluto is in the breakdown phase. So we may feel we are losing our ideals now.The Moon makes a sextile to the Sun and the other Aquarius planets, especially during the middle of the day. This indicates inner ease. However, there is a lot of ambition at the same time.

Only through the development of mutual respect, and in a spirit of truth, can friendship come about. ~H H the Dalai Lama

Theme: So What Else?

The last two days readings are mostly relevant today as well: a tendency to see things worse than they are, intensity in relationships and looking for some excitement. Now the Moon is new at exactly 2:53 pm EST. So this is a good time for new beginnings, as our conscious and subconscious minds are united. There is still a heavy emphasis on ambition, and some on humanitarian values. Unfortunately these values have to go through a destruction phase for a few years, before something new will come forth.

One of the most important and central thoughts in Buddhist philosophy is the idea of compassion. ~Jetsunma Ahkon Norbu Lhamo

Theme: Intensity in Relationships

For the next several days Venus unites with Pluto. This adds plutonian issues in our close relationships. We crave intensity, and may be prone to jealousy and the desire to control others. We are also cold and ambitious because the Moon continues for another day and a half in Capricorn, along with the Sun, Mercury and Mars. With the Sun tightly trine Uranus this is a day for new adventures and discoveries, but not so good for being very disciplined.

Pity those who don’t feel anything at all. ~Sara J. Maas

Theme: Not as Bad as We Think

Saturn has pulled into close orb with Neptune, until the northern hemisphere spring equinox. This can affect us in many negative ways. Confusion, self-doubt and uncertainty are all likely. But the negative view point that we are drawn towards is not really accurate. Take a look at the positive things going on now: a gratitude list is recommended. We should be mindful of our health, careful in making plans and we are actually capable of making great sacrifices now.

If we studied Bodhicitta, or the mind of compassion, every single day for the rest of our lives, we wouldn’t even scratch its surface because it is so profound. ~Jetsunma Ahkon Norbu Lhamo

Theme: From harmony and beauty to deep probing

In the mid morning the Moon goes from Libra to Scorpio. Unfortunately this is not a happy place for our emotions, subconscious and home life. We may not like what we feel, but we do have the ability to probe deeply into problems. To make it harder, the Moon is square to Pluto, especially in the middle of the day. This will bring up compulsive tendencies and perhaps nasty power struggles with others. The best approach is to pause and be rigorously self-honest and compassionate.

We need to begin to stabilize the mind by sensing the difference between our nature and our conceptualizations– ~Jetsunma Akhon Norbu Lhamo

The Moon is void of course today until 5:56 am EST. Do not make any big decisions until after that.

Theme: Thinking Big

Jupiter is opposed to the stellium in Capricorn (Sun, Venus and Mars). We are generous in spirit and think in terms of doing big things, particularly relating to religion, philosophy and long distance travel. In the middle of the day, the Moon makes a T square which can be disorienting, as our subconscious is stimulated. Pluto continues to inch its way through Aquarius indicating first a breakdown of humanitarian values, before the renewal of them in several years.

By thinking big, we can transform our world. ~Ben Carson

The Moon is void of course from 12:55 pm until 5:56 am the next day EST. Do not make any big decisions during this time period.
