FEBRUARY 2023
RUNE OF THE MONTH: “Rad”, riding the chariot. It is now time to
share our ideas with the world. Only by testing what we have created
in the real world, can we know if it works. This month requires of us
the courage to show our truth and receive the feedback that will
enable us to keep moving forward.

This month’s intentional meditation starts on Sunday 2/5. Let us
take out as many blank sheets of paper as we have intentions and
place them near a window, on a balcony or in a garden so that they
basked in the light of the Full Moon in Leo at exactly 10:29 AM.
Once that moment passes, let us gather our Full Moon charged
blank sheets and place them in a folder.
On Sunday 2/19, take out your blank full moon charged papers
and write on each a concise, positive intention. Place them on a
balcony, in a garden or near a window so that they are out by
exactly 11:06 PM for the New Moon in Pisces. Once that
moment has passed, staple them together and put them away in a
folder expecting the manifestation of all your dreams….

Friday 2/3: Sun Square Uranus (6:50 PM)
A day to expect the unexpected. Plans change suddenly. New
circumstances appear. People we hadn’t seen in a while, reappear.
Fallouts alienate us from people we thought we were close to. To
make the most of these strange situations, it is important that we
remain very flexible, present to the present, and just go with the
flow.
Saturday 2/4: Venus Square Mars (7:29 PM)
We could feel frustrated. A relationship may break down due to
impulsive, destructive behavior. Today, impatient, aggressive action
may not be the most suited to remove obstacles in our social life.
Poised, honest, direct responses are more effective in bringing
back harmony and balance.
Monday 2/6: Mercury Sextile Neptune (10:26 AM)
A day best spent in quiet contemplation. Not the best for decisions
requiring attention to details, as we tend to overlook important,
practical information. Excellent however for creative work. Our
imagination is productive. We are inspired by art, and what lies on
the other side of the veil.
Tuesday 2/7: Venus Sextile Uranus (9:29 PM)
Love turns to friendship, while a friendship may become a love.
Romance is unusual, either because of the manner in which we meet
this person, or the nature of that new love interest. A day to
balance intimacy and freedom. We seek financial independence and
may receive an unexpected income. Our social life becomes varied
and interesting.
Friday 2/10: Mercury Conjunct Pluto (9:16 AM)
Today we are able to X-ray situations and people. However, to
reach the results we seek, it is important that we remain
cooperative, helpful, polite, and considerate of others.
Saturday 2/11: Mercury enters Aquarius (3:22 AM) till 3/2
During the next 3 weeks, our mind is open to unusual topics, we
connect dots in special ways, are inventive, futuristic, and highly
individualistic. We are attracted to science fiction and technology.
More friendly and sociable than usual, we enjoy people from all
walks of life.
Wednesday 2/15: Venus Conjunct Neptune (4:25 AM)
Love may be evasive. Romance and enchantment may not be all they
seem to be. We could easily fall in love with love and be deceived
by someone who is not telling us the whole truth. Money matters
are strange. Frauds are possible. We feel vulnerable and somewhat
lazy. A day to take it easy, relax, watch an inspiring movie, and be
creative.
Thursday 2/16: Sun Conjunct Saturn (8:48 AM)
A day of thoughtful, mature, serious behavior. Great for
completing backlogged work, furthering our ambitions, and making
long-term plans. We either seek the company of people we respect
and admire or prefer to stay alone.
Friday 2/17: Mercury Sextile Jupiter (6:13 PM)
A wonderful day to plan a long-distance trip, learn a foreign
language, or start an advanced training. The law, religion, or
philosophy are appealing topics of interest. We are positive. Our
faith and trust in life, as well as our self-confidence are at an all
times’ high.
Saturday 2/18: the Sun enters Pisces (2:34 PM) till 3/20
During the coming month, we could feel more dreamy than usual.
We seek peace, balance, and beauty. Meditation and art are
attractive. Sacredness is inspiring. Our dreams could be
particularly meaningful.
Sunday 2/19: Venus Sextile Pluto (9:05 AM), Venus enters
Aries (11:56 PM) till 3/16
A relationship begun today feels destined. Emotions run deep. Our
passion burns with intensity. An excellent day for a financial
investment that will bring abundance over time. During the next 4
weeks, we are emotionally impulsive, prone to falling in love with
love, and leaping before thinking things through. We may spend
money more quickly than we are able to earn it.
Tuesday 2/21: Mercury Square Uranus (2:22 PM)
A strange set of circumstances may throw us off kilter. People are
likely to act in detached, erratic ways. We are drawn to a new,
exciting topic of interest. Independent action is appealing. Our
mind functions in unusual ways.
Wednesday 2/22: Mercury Trine Mars (12:14 PM)
Our thoughts are competitive, sharp, and alive. A great day for
expanding physical energy on work requiring much courage and
stamina. People may be aggressive or opinionated. Calling a spade a
spade, being direct and honest helps us get our point across
effectively.
Wishing you a wonderful month of February!
In Loving Light.
