Astral Meanders February 3rd-9th 2010

In General: As the month of February begins, Venus, Neptune and the Sun are in Aquarius. Mercury, Pluto and the lunar Node are in Capricorn. Saturn is square to Pluto, Jupiter is sextile to Pluto and Mars is retrograde in Leo. This makes for the start of a very earthed and centered month. Practicalities are our main concerns and any frustrations will ultimately show themselves as gifts of learning for us. If you are thinking of picking a fight now, then think again because fighters tend to be losers at the moment. Remembering too that Saturn is still retrograde, asking us to go back and reorganize or renegotiate any activities or commitments that continue to be a source of dissatisfaction in our lives. In this we can learn to say no or to get a better angle on our goals. Venus conjuncts both Neptune and Chiron this week suggesting new beginnings for relationships, the healing of old wounds and compassionate openness to the needs of others!! If you have a birthday to celebrate this week then expect a year ahead where you get to know your true goals and improve your relationships! On the world scene this week suggests some revisiting of old issues and some healing and learning here too. Aggressive action of any kind will be met with disappointment on the part of the aggressor!! Locally take some time out for romance.


Thought for the week... Holding on to anger, resentment and hurt only gives you tense muscles, a headache and a sore jaw from clenching your teeth. Forgiveness gives you back the laughter and the lightness in your life. Joan Lunden

It’s a month of inner retreat and regeneration all round. Relationships become extra important to you and for those not in a long term relationship the yearning for one will be there. You are also more sensitive to what others needs are now and will deal with them in a tactful and caring manner.

Astral Peeks:
Dr. George W. Carey was the first to propose the theory that a person’s astrological sign corresponds to a particular biochemic cell salt. There are twelve months, twelve sun signs, and there are twelve biochemic salts. The salts that go with each of the sun signs, according to Dr. Carey' s ideas, deserve a few doses each month to help preserve the balance in the body. Whether or not you believe in astrology, this approach is interesting and has shown some legitimacy, based on research and clinical use. Here are the signs and their cell salts:
Aries: Kali Phos Taurus: Nat Sulph Gemini: Kali Mur Cancer: Calc Flour Leo: Mag Phos Virgo: Kali Sulph Libra: nat Phos Scorpio: calc Sulph Sagittarius: Silicea Capricorn: Calc Phos Aquarius: Nat Mur Pisces: Ferr Phos.
