FEBRUARY
2004 by Bob Mulligan
Circumstances
offer us a chance to alter some significant components
of the way we treat other people in February. Okay,
we have Valentine's Day on Saturday, February 14th,
but relationships will be a key theme all month. Our
romantic relationships assist us in identifying characteristics
in our personality that need to be changed. Some relationships
in life require more work than they seem to be worth.
We have to be sure of our long-range goals. This is
a month where events become a “proving ground” for
our intentions and goals. People talk about change,
but transformation requires effort and commitment.
After the 8th, we are really in transition. This is
when Venus (Feminine energy) enters Aries (sign of
assertion). She will be in mutual reception with Mars
(Masculine energy) until the 5th of March. All our
personal progress hinges on these two forces getting
along with each other. Friendly persuasion and love
are the keys to making anything and everything work
out now.
Energy
builds powerfully during the 1st week, then peeks
at the Full Moon on the 6th. Meditate at this time
if you are able. This is at 3:47am EST. It's an early
morning or a late night but really worth the effort.
We can see our creative vision turn into a reality.
The second week is a time of trying new things and
being assertive. Success here means knowing when enough
is enough. The third week is a time of transition
from productivity to meditation and concentrating
on our inner life. On the 20th we have our New Moon
in Pisces, setting a new emotional trend for the beginning
of the astrological new year, starting next month.
The fourth week is a time to prepare a new plan for
living. It's a time of establishing a new direction
and method. This is a wonderful week.
1st
- Sunday - Mars Contra-parallel Uranus, Mercury Semi-Sextile
Pluto, Venus Square Pluto. It's a powerful day. We
start new projects today. The outcome can be along
predictable lines, but we have to go for fast results.
2nd
- Monday - Sun Parallel Neptune, Sun Conjunct Neptune.
It's more difficult to focus because today has a dreamy
quality. However, we all feel some urgency to get
certain things accomplished.
3rd
- Tuesday - Mars enters Taurus. Our projects can take
on a practical aspect today. It's as if everything
slows down and we get a chance to focus.
4th
- Wednesday - Emotions are high and we are looking
for quick and easy answers. Surprisingly, many long-standing
problems have simple answers.
5th
- Thursday - It's as if we are easily dragged into
“no win” situations. Stay emotionally buoyant; do
your best to prevent interruptions. You have some
real tasks at hand. See how many you can complete.
6th
- Friday - Full Moon at 17 Aquarius at 3:47am EST,
Mars Sextiles Uranus, Sun Quincunx Jupiter, Mars Sesquiquadrate
Jupiter, Venus Semi-square Neptune, Mercury enters
Aquarius. This time of meditation can help reinforce
personal and collective creativity. Take time aside,
even though it is at an uncomfortable time of day
for most people. You will see that this time can be
very productive. There are lots of changes, opportunities,
interruptions, accidents, but stay productive and
you will be handsomely rewarded.
7th
- Saturday - Change of plans and new interests can
make this day fascinating. Be prepared for the unusual,
then get down to your basic plan.
8th
- Sunday - Mercury Sesquiquadrate Jupiter, Mercury
Semi-Sextile Uranus, Venus enters Aries. Suddenly
we have leverage and momentum in an area where progress
has been sluggish. Use your head, there are real solutions
to real problems, however, be willing to take half
of what you really wanted and be satisfied for awhile.
9th
- Monday - Mercury Square Mars. We can be too quick
reaching conclusions. Talk to people and exchange
new ideas. Be willing to adopt a new point of view.
10th
- Tuesday - Sun Parallel Pluto, Venus Semi-sextile
Uranus, Sun Sextile Pluto. Feelings of freedom coupled
with an inner prompting to experience the unusual
can provide our motivation today.
11th
- Wednesday - Sun Sesquiquadrate Saturn, Mercury Semi-square
Pluto, Mercury Quincunx Saturn, Sun Contra-parallel
Mars. We may be forced to accomplish something more
than we had wanted today. We have both energy and
commitment going in our direction.
12th
- Thursday - We have a way of seeing our life and
causes too seriously. Everything seems to be all or
nothing. Strong wills and harsh words can close doors
completely; just be sure that this is what you want.
13th
- Friday - Mars Contra-parallel Pluto, Mars Sextile
Saturn, Mars Sesquiquadrate Pluto. We have lots of
energy, but can it be directed correctly? Values are
at stake now. Are we sure that what we are going for
is really in our best interest?
14th
- Saturday - Venus Square Saturn, then Semi-sextile
Mars. We struggle to get fed emotionally. Sometimes
our manner of assertion gets in the way of being able
to get what we want. If you want to be with someone
(rather than just doing your own thing) be willing
to see what they need.
15th
- Sunday - Mercury Conjunct Neptune. Brainstorming
can bring lots of new ideas without the details being
obvious.
16th
- Monday - Progress is made by being positive, practical,
and measured in our responses. Stay on a traditional
course of action, obey the rules, forget about getting
other's approval and you can have a pleasant and accomplished
day.
17th
- Tuesday - Mercury Quincunx Jupiter. Be open to new
ideas and be willing to wait for clarity.
18th
- Wednesday - Communicate, be pleasant. Today is tricky.
There is no simple formula for success. Make adjustments
for things changing.
19th
- Thursday - Sun enters Pisces, Mercury Parallel Neptune,
Sun Parallel Uranus. We find complimentary forms of
development today as we are lifted to think creatively
in a new way.
20th
- Friday - Venus Sextile Neptune, then a New Moon
at 4:18am EST at 1 Pisces. Mercury Sesquiquadrate
Saturn, then Sextile Pluto, and finally a Contra-parallel
to Mars. We are both mentally and emotionally quite
stirred up. Be willing to plan for the future. Some
tasks won't be completed now; patience is required.
21st
- Saturday - Venus Quincunx Jupiter, Sun Conjunct
Uranus. Be careful of the way you assert yourself
today. It is possible to make a sudden leap forward.
Be patient but be prepared to move with opportunity.
22nd
- Sunday - Energy and external support is stop and
go all day. Work to stabilize your feelings. Things
are getting ready to change.
23rd
- Monday - Venus Parallel Jupiter, Mercury Parallel
Pluto, Venus Semi-square Uranus, Mars Conjunct North
Node. Blending of the unique with the expected is
quite something. Many connections can be made. Be
willing to examine what comes up.
24th
- Tuesday - Mars Contra-parallel Neptune, Mars Square
Neptune. This is a great day for meditation and being
inwardly peaceful.
25th
- Wednesday - Mercury enters Pisces, Saturn Trine
Saturn. An emotionally comfortable and stabilizing
day.
26th
- Thursday - Mars Trine Jupiter, Sun Contra-parallel
Venus. This is a fortunate day for competing and reaching
out to others. Practical results are within reach.
27th
- Friday - Mercury Conjunct Uranus, Venus Trine Pluto.
An emotionally expansive time. Insights are personal
and prepare us for the future.
28th
- Saturday - Mercury Trine Saturn, Mercury Parallel
Uranus. Conventional wisdom leads us in the direction
of healing old wounds and settling past accounts.
29th
- Sunday - Mercury Contra-parallel Venus, Sun Contra-parallel
Jupiter. It is a light refreshing day. Don't promise
more than you can deliver and you will go in a positive
direction.
