astral meanders 1-7 February 2012

In general: The main astrological happening of note in February is Neptune finally entering Pisces. It will certainly be evident in the large amount of water activity across the globe during this month. Mars will also be retrograde for the whole month, draining the usual spark and energy from many of us! Venus is closing in on a conjunction to Neptune, and trine to Saturn. This is enormously satisfying and helpful when it comes to beginning the process of self-discovery and in a more global sense when it comes to better understanding our differences and consequent individual needs. For those with birthdays this week the year ahead holds a deeper respect for self and a greater compassion for others. On a global sense this is also true with many world leaders and heads of organisations attempting to bridge the gaps in equality. Locally we can try to spend more time understanding each other.

Thought for the week: Love is the crowning grace of humanity. Petrarch

Aries
Emotional issues that have been a stumbling block for some time should come to some sort of closure this week. Generally the results should be pleasing. Individuals from the past should also be re-entering your life this week. Energy may be a little low but you don’t have to push yourself, so enjoy the

Taurus
This week brings news, action and communication about life direction, long term goals and life developments. Its time to embrace your confidence and the adventure of your life. Travel beckons and many of you will be planning or taking trips away. It’s a good week and indeed an entire month for Taurus.

Gemini
You are enquiring and curious this week and may discover something about yourself and others that enlightens the rest of the year for you! Avoid being too smart for your own good on the second of the month as this could lead to unnecessary conflict. Old issues may reappear for your attention late in the week.

Cancer
You have been growing in strength this year and this week is a strong culmination of that strength. A strong collaborator appears on the scene this week, someone who can support your efforts and goals. Your dreams and visions are expanding and the opportunities to build on these will come forth now.

Leo
Leo’s world is expanding on many levels now and as it does so do your opportunities. It’s a busy social time too and you can find it hard to rest! You may be wearing those fiery emotions on your sleeve but it works well for you now. Just watch your lower energy levels and get the rest you require now.

Virgo
This is not a good week for anything new or too adventurous but it is a good time to establish healthy working routines and put plans to paper. You may need to guard against misunderstandings as communication is a little off centre and others can be difficult. Don’t take on too much now as you don’t have the energy!

Libra
Friends and intimate partners are providing you with great intellectual stimulation this week and many long philosophical discussions will keep you smiling. You are learning a good deal about yourself now too and this affords you the tools to make February a very special, dynamic and productive month.

Scorpio
It’s a loving and sociable week for Scorpio. You are beginning to understand which partnerships work for you and which do not. A particular partnership appears to be more than usually positive and provides stimulus for the future. Your energy is as intense as usual and you are feeling good about life in general.

Sagittarius
Folk from the past can remerge and provide you with some positive possibilities for your future. It is an inspiring time overall and creativity is beginning to stir again in the best possible way! Home and family also figure prominently now and will provide some very enjoyable and heart felt moments for you.

Capricorn
Better financial prospects and an improved social profile are on the agenda for this week. Plans may have to change in the short term and there are the inevitable dark moments as Pluto challenges you but having an open mind and heart can make the difference for you. Embrace the changes that are afoot and you will reap great rewards.

Aquarius
This is a powerful time for Aquarius and an enlightening one, which like it or not will light the path ahead in sharp focus. It can be a lucky week if you are open to it and a chance meeting with someone can prove to be dynamically providential. You may find yourself beginning to be a little more emotional than usual.

Pisces
Old relationship issues may return to you this week and force you to re-evaluate your personal issues and difficulties. Being authentic and accountable with yourself and maintaining a good sense of humour can be very helpful! You are learning more about yourself and your intuitions and learning to trust both!

Astral Peeks: FULL MOON in LEO: Wed 8 Feb 2012

A full moon occurs when the transit (moving) Sun and Moon are exactly opposing one another in the zodiac. It tends to signal a time of endings, culminations, and things coming to fruition. February 7th 2012 Full Moon in Leo
In Leo, this Full Moon is worthy to end a creative venture, or promote your creativity, connecting it more intensely to your emotions. Everyone may seem to possess a tad more of the drama king or queen now, and their emotions may be volatile. This Full Moon opposes Mercury, which could bring problems with infrastructures. It may appear as if everyone is having a tough time understanding each other.
