Last week’s Mercury/Mars/Neptune conjunction in Pisces square
Jupiter really seemed to download much information from multiple sources into
our psyches that may take some time to unwind/sort out/ground into reality. It
may be difficult to get a grip on what it all means right now and thus almost
impossible to explain to others. Fortunately, both Mercury and Mars will aspect
Saturn and Pluto positively this week and bring some discipline to the mind and
all this new stimulation and what to do with some of it. Monday is a continuation
initially of all the Pisces energy as the Moon in Pisces conjuncts Mercury and
Mars early in the day, however then the energy shifts as the Moon sextiles
Pluto and trines Saturn and Mercury sextiles Pluto. Mercury/Pluto will give us the
opportunity to focus the mind and look deep within ourselves and the way we
think and find ways to transform by releasing old psychological junk and
claiming the power over our own psyche. This is excellent for studying any
subject matter that is shadowy or hidden much of the time like the occult, psychology,
magick, sexuality, etc. Be aware we can get very narrow-minded/obsessive
mentally under this energy and block out much external stimulation messages.
Mercury’s square to Vesta shows that challenge comes from groups we normally
belong with and seeing how they are stuck and perhaps slowing you down from
going to places where you may have to go without them, as they may not be able
to relate to your current message/interest (at least not on the your current
level.)
Then on Tuesday Mercury trines the Great Taskmaster, Saturn,
and you can really get down to business in putting things in their proper
place/perspective. We feel positive about our duties/work and can accomplish
much. This is particularly good for paperwork/computer work/intellectual work,
as the mind has great discipline and focus and can really plow through things
succinctly. A good day to make plans, negotiations, business deals, get advice
from experts, organize things, etc. The mind is serious and wants to move
forward. Mars is conjunct Chiron today also which gives us great power to take
on things we normally would not/give in to, which can have a powerful healing
effect/boost to self-esteem. We may take responsibility for our own learning
and healing also. Pluto is square Pallas Athene exact today too, a longer term
transit that is longer and not as acute in daily energy, but can be seen to
represent more female type values/approaches to power and the challenge that is
to get instilled in a patriarchal system. Continued issues surrounding sexual
identity/roles, as seen mundanely through societal issues surrounding gay
marriage and partner benefits, and gays and women in the military, will
continue for some time. On personal levels, this transit may feel like we are
fighting blocks in our own lives to feel free sexually/creatively. It’s also a
calling to clear out certain obsessions/habits we may have in our minds, so
that we may allow it to transform.
Wednesday is our weekly dose of hard lunar aspects to the
Uranus/Pluto square with a conjunction to Uranus and a square to Pluto exasperated
by a Sun/Pluto semi-square: we may find ourselves in some very frustrating
power struggles/highly tense situations today that can set off explosions of
anger, wrath, quick movement, desires to break free, etc. Issues with authorities/superiors
are possible. Pressure may be building up on incomplete projects that need
addressing, while at the same time your inner make-up is being challenged by
circumstances/others.
Thursday, Valentine’s Day, is quiet and peaceful for most
part with an evening Moon/Sun sextile making harmony among lovers, on this
special day for them, easy to achieve.
Friday, Mars following Mercury, sextiles Pluto: we can tap
into incredible amounts of sustained energy/effort today and achieve many
progressive acts for ourselves. A good time to set and take action on goals for
self or with groups or best of all, a combination of both. You can move with
purpose, courage and strength today.
Mars then trines Saturn on Saturday, which gives great
sustained effort and the ability to do much disciplined physical work. Energy
is released in a “timer release” type form and you have the patience to see
long, even tedious jobs through. Good for detailed work of any kind. Also, good
relationships at work especially with the boss, as you can make him feel he can
count on you. Mars square Vesta however can cause an imbalance in male/yang
energy and drive others from you or bring up sexual issues. It may be hard to
live up to all you promised others today. Over aggression is possible too.
Sunday’s only notable event is a 1st Quarter Square of the
Moon in Taurus to the Sun in Aquarius: the emotions may feel threatened by
having to sacrifice some of our creature comforts in order to live in a braver,
newer world of equality and justice on all levels. Meeting this challenge
however can actually bring us a greater sense of security than falling back on any
of our old habits could ever meet. We can learn to be the creator/inventor of
our own new world.
So then theme of this week is to start build something solid
upon all of the inspiration this current Piscean energy is bringing us.
Next week, the Sun joins the Piscean waters also and links up
with Neptune, while both Saturn and Mercury go retrograde. Keep floating along!
