Grounding, Instigation & Containment Moon/Aquarius over Mars & Sun. Saturn-Neptune

The Moon moves to Mars Aquarius today (16th) and joins the Sun on Tuesday. Saturn has re-entered Aries to join Neptune, both idling in preparation for reprising the legendary conjunction at its inception of last May. It gears up to close - by early March - on situations which defy necessity, deals needing sealing, and issues begging for containment. The Moon today instigates new ways of management and direction.  Indicating splintering in toxic grouping. Separation from outworn alliance. Rending of agreements that promise a lot and offer little. Before March makes restructuring and reclamation an impossibility.

Mercury retrogrades in Pisces on the 25th February until the 20th March. After collaborating with Venus to find the easiest options and smoothest ways forward ... may be hard to spot, but worth the investigation.

ASTROLOGY IN BRIEF

Mercury enters Pisces today, followed by Venus on Tuesday. Saturn leaves the sign next Friday to join Neptune for the sealing of the conjunction in Aries. It may be difficult for now to take forward the stronger measures planned for some time, as much obfuscation and fudging and evasion muddies the water. And the dive Mercury takes when retrograding on the 20th of this month can look like a disappearance of past detail or historic data, but what emerges as the planet is direct again in late March indicates deeper dredging from obscurity, and might surprise, or even shock.

FULL MOON IN LEO ... opposing 5 planets in Aquarius

The Full Moon in Leo today (snow moon) opposes - over the next 24 hours - all transiting planets in Aquarius .. Mercury, Venus, Mars and Pluto. Very much it is the heart versus the head for some situations. It brings a full stop, as a lot of full moons do, to many issues where awkward or distant communications have caused prevarication and delay.The opposition is in fixed signs: air and fire. So displays and rhetoric of the impassioned and fanciful kind tend to be brought down to basic facts and sensible terms. Or they dissipate into nothing and are consigned to the past. Neptune has re-entered Aries and waits for Saturn to conjoin, by the middle of this month, to close and finalise on opportunities, propositions and clauses instigated last May/June. This full moon urges braver or more graphic action in some situations where other approaches have failed.

 

Poetry by Eugene Samolin 

 

One Green Breath

When One branch burns 

The whole tree feels the flame.

When One leaf bleeds,

The roots remember the pain.

We are woven in the same green breath,

Israel, Palestine, East and West.

Each heartbeat a fruit of the same vine,

Each prayer a spark in the same light divine.

The good of the whole

Is the good of the one;

Until peace is made,

The world cannot be won.

ASTROLOGY IN BRIEF

The Sun in Aquarius conjuncts Pluto and has passed Mercury which conjuncts Venus: deceptively gentle attitudes in difficult issues. Mars has entered the scene and conjuncts Pluto on Wednesday. While Moon/Aries tries, until Monday (26th) to introduce the transformers, and players jostle for supremacy. Neptune, re-entering Aries on Tuesday, idles at nought degrees and negates or obscures crucial facts until next weekend. All points to the future - with Wednesday as an instigation or trigger to things volatile but entrenched. Some situations are stuck in historical precedent and dictates, awaiting the enlargement of information with Moon/Cancer over Jupiter on Friday and Saturday next.

ASTROLOGY IN BRIEF

As Venus just passed the Sun and Mars in Capricorn these last couple of days and the trio oppose Jupiter/Cancer the organisational flair of those who understand comes to the fore. With strong boundaries and terms and conditions that many did not see coming. Moon LIbra today (10th) forms a T-Square, as Mercury lags a little behind, supplying background data and information missed previously. A time of reckoning and a time for closing doors to eliminate back-draft and crafty exits for the wrong people, as Neptune & Saturn move to last degrees of Pisces. 

Today’s full Moon (wolf Moon) in Cancer.

 

Today’s Full Moon (3rd) a pWolf Moon) is in Cancer opposing Sun Capricorn, with Venus, Mercury and Mars also in Capricorn. This is a populus Moon, inclusive and collective, it passes Jupiter resting in Cancer by late Sunday, begging more harmonised views and attitudes to harsher situations. Organised compassion might be the keyword here until Thursday. The new year threatens to even up old scores from last year by March of this.  Uranus moving finally into Gemini by May signals the need for diffinitive choice in disparate divisions. Leaving little room for manoeuvre where uncertain loyalties or tenures risk losses from lack of strong decision. A tough start to the year, but a progressive one.
