If your birthday is within a few days
of February 9th, the extra susceptibility to being deceived or deluded should
yield to an increased sense of inspiration and idealism at the end of the month
when Neptune comes out
of Retrograde (RX).
All Water Bearers will have felt this to some degree, but the effects would have
been strongest for those born around that time. Neptune RX tends to
dissolve boundaries of all types and can change your view of the world
considerably in a subtle, quiet way. Realism is likely to still be a bit
of a challenge, a circumstance that can be somewhat uncomfortable for a logical
Air Sign, but this is not always
a bad thing. If there is something you really want or would like to
pursue, later this month an opportunity could surface that could pave the way
for you to do just that, possibly through a connection established through your
vast network of friends and associates. This will be thanks to a nice,
friendly sextile between Neptune and expansive, lucky
Jupiter in your Natural
11th House of group activities,
friends, hopes and wishes. Be conscious
of the fact that you might be seeing things through the proverbial rose-colored
glasses, but don't necessarily let go of your ideal. Rather make concrete,
realistic plans regarding what needs to be done to achieve it. Your Sign Ruler, Uranus is likely to institute some more surprises and upsets related to your possessions and finances as he continues to chug through your Natural 2nd House. These are likely to be annoying for the most part, though toward the end of the month you may have to make a choice relative to an investment opportunity that could ultimately be quite beneficial as he faces off with Venus in your Natural 8th House of shared resources. The 8th House also covers intimate relationships and transformations, so a surprise could just as easily come along with them as well. Just for the record, with Uranus squaring Jupiter most of the month it's probably not a good idea to loan out anything of value, including money, to any friends or take any other chances that involve speculation as you may tend to be too optimistic; remember what I said about Neptune earlier and your sense of reality. This aspect could also present an emotional upset of some sort directly related to your core beliefs being challenged or the loss of something you value. It's hard to say what could happen when Jupiter and Uranus square off since the former tends to be expansive and lucky but you never know what you'll get with the latter. Venus will be trining Pluto early in the month, which should bring to light various elements relative to either your investments or intimate relationships that you should know how to resolve by midmonth when Venus and Saturn have a bit of a reunion. These revelations could come through the advice or insights of a friend or associate and should be helpful, especially if it's time to take a serious look at your investments, both of a monetary and emotional nature. In fact, if you pay close attention, a major opportunity could come from it. Rethinking previous decisions and plans in these areas and any new data gathering will be favored as well, also midmonth, as Retrograde Mercury throws a positive sextile to Venus. Mercury RX has quite a sorry reputation for breakdowns and it's definitely a poor time to make major purchases of anything electronic, mechanical or, heaven forbid, both, but this aspect is actually helpful for going back over previous decisions and rooting out any flaws or information you missed the first time around. On October 11th, that New Moon in Libra, your Natural 9th House of long distance travel, higher education and legal issues, could usher in a new phase of some sort in one of these areas. If you've been thinking about taking some action or waiting for something positive to happen in one of those areas, the wheels are likely to start turning sometime after that, especially if your birthday is right around February 7th. The Full Moon in Taurus, your Natural 4th House of home environment, may highlight or possibly culminate a problem or two relative to a project or activity involving your home or family, especially for those born a few days within or on January 23rd. Mars is throwing some extra energy in your Natural 6th House of work, health and pets that should help you get a few things off the ground in that arena. Mars in negative aspect can mean aggression and possibly trouble, but fortunately he is in favorable aspect to some of his fellow planets that should have a very positive bearing in this area, though it may require a few adjustments on your part in order to take full advantage of them. In other words, opportunities may present themselves that are generally positive, but not without some discomfort, especially since Aquarius is a Fixed Sign who dislikes change, regardless of the fact you can be pretty unconventional. Having a different view on life can be just as entrenched as a more mainstream one. Most of this activity will be around the middle of the month, though the month begins with some opportunities when Mars shakes hands with Saturn through the 19th, which should tie those ambitions to an increased sense of responsibility. It's worth noting that Saturn has recently moved into Virgo, your Natural 8th House of shared resources (a.k.a. other people's money), intimate relationships (a.k.a. sex), and transformations (a.k.a. major personal changes). While Neptune dissolves, Saturn builds, so if these areas of your life have needed a bit of remodeling, more than likely over the next two and a half years you will see some progress in this area. Responsibilities are likely to increase and most likely you will take your obligations more seriously than you have in the past. Virgo is a very methodical, detail-oriented, and organized sign, which represents a reasonably good pairing of energies. Back to Mars, midmonth he'll trine Mercury RX, which will enhance your ability to do some deep thinking relative to your career. If you'd like to make a change, you're likely to be able to make some progress identifying what it might be and have the ambition you need to move in that direction, whatever that may entail. Around that same time, Mars will also sextile Venus, which could bring some financial benefits your way. These may require some extra effort on your part, but the opportunities are there if you're willing to work for them. This should be a busy and eventful month that includes numerous opportunities relative to your investments, work and career, possibly even a chance to incorporate some of your dreams into your life. Listen to your intuition, but make sure you have your facts straight as well to make sure you're not pursuing anything that turns out to be no more than a pipe dream. |
