astral meanderings 18-24 feb 2009

Astral weeks by Bev Murray February 18-February 24 2009

In General: The Sun enters Pisces on the 18th, suggesting mellow energy and some attention to romance and dreams. From the 18th to 22nd the Sun makes pleasant aspect to Pluto, helping with communications in general. Old problems can be sorted out and old issues cleared up. The 18th also has the aide of the optimistic Sagittarius Moon, and we should find it easier to articulate our feelings. A very real possibility is business opportunity, and also opportunities to acquire the help and assets we need to manifest our projects and new ideas. Romance can bloom in the most unlikely of circumstances this week too. If you are having a birthday this week you can expect a very positive year ahead and some success in all projects started now. On the world scene we should expect a more positive aura in general, with some investment growth. I wouldn’t get too excited about this however! Locally it’s a great time for charity work.

Astral Peeks:
Interesting facts: The Age of Aquarius
We are currently voyaging from the Age of Pisces into the Age of Aquarius. Although many people consider the Age of Pisces to begin at year 0 with the birth of Jesus with Aquarian Age beginning at 2000, nearly all astronomers agree that the Age of Pisces actually began in year 498 C.E., signifying entry into Aquarius in 2658 C.E. The Piscean Age has been discerned by the growth of the three major monotheistic religions, each of which claims to be the only correct one, and the attempted termination of the individual ego.
As we shift from the Piscean age into Aquarius, we are being shown that many of our believed truths may well be illusions and that any unreality upon which we have based both our religious and personal ethical foundations will of necessity be challenged. We will be learning to do more than just follow, we will be learning to ask ourselves the hard questions and to take responsibility for the answers.
