FEBRUARY 2024

RUNE OF THE MONTH:

Ansuz “the mouth of the river”. As we think and speak, we create our reality. What we say and how we say it, matters.

Let us pronounce impeccable words coming from pure thoughts and loving intentions, that we may manifest a world that enhances our lives. We are asked to look for sources of wisdom in and around us, seek the advice of those we respect and admire, and be aware that in our divinity, we know.

* * * * * * * * * * *

Mercury turns direct on Monday January 1st, 2024 at 22º33’ Sagittarius. Its shadow period lasts until January 21, 2024. The degree Mercury turns direct on, is symbolized by “Immigrants entering a new country.” Today, there could still be some misunderstandings, changed minds, lost keys, disrupted schedules, and missed flights. Tomorrow, communications will shift to their new order. A wonderful way to start this new year, on a new mental basis, free from the known.

Uranus remains retrograde this whole month until January 26, 2024. Its shadow period lasts until May 14, 2024. The degree traveled in January (19º23’-19º05’ Taurus) is symbolized by: “Wisps of clouds, like wings, are streaming across the sky.” We are asked to uncover our unique gifts and talents and assert our independence. The more we embrace our true self, the more spiritually connected we are. We then become a conduit for all forms of synchronicities and divine inspirations.

Pluto re-enters Aquarius on January 20th, until September 1st, 2024. The degree traveled in January (0º-0º19’ Aquarius) is symbolized by: “An old adobe mission”. As most old, outworn structures in the world are collapsing, the new is starting to emerge from the rubbles. In 2023, Pluto still spent most of the year in Capricorn. A lot of corruption emerged at very high levels of power. As Pluto re-enters Aquarius, almost for good (it will be fully in that sign in 2025), the balance is gradually and resolutely shifting to the people taking things in their own hands. Laws that make no sense, rules that do not honor humanitarian rights, intolerance, and the lack of social solidarity are all being disparaged. The dangers of A.I. and social media are likely to come to the forefront. There could also be increased concerns regarding extra-terrestrial intelligence, and the advances of science and technology devoid of a connection to spirituality.

This month’s intentional meditation started on Thursday 1/25 when we took out as many blank sheets of paper as we had 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 9:54 AM. Once that moment passed, we gathered our Full Moon charged blank sheets and placed them in a folder.

On Friday 2/9, 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 2:59 PM for the New Moon in Aquarius. Once that moment has passed, staple them together and put them away in a folder expecting the manifestation of all your dreams….

Next month’s intentional meditation starts on Saturday 2/24 with the Full Moon in Virgo at exactly 4:30 AM.

Friday 2/2: Mercury Sextile Neptune (2:55 AM)

A day best spent in quiet contemplation, reading, dreaming, painting, or watching an inspiring movie. Any past mistake or misconception can be corrected today. Going with the flow and exercising discrimination helps us bring balance to a potential situation created by someone who, possibly under the influence, is acting in strange ways.

Sunday 2/4: Mercury enters Aquarius (9:10 PM) till 2/22

During the next two weeks, science, technology, and inventions are favored. Our intense concern for the future could make us forget the present. Our mind is particularly progressive. We are interested in humanitarian endeavors, are attracted to ufology and science fiction, and think out of the box. The perfect time to install new software, enroll in a computer class, or study astrology.

Monday 2/5: Mercury Conjunct Pluto (4:58 AM)

Negotiations are favored. A day to keep our reservations to ourselves while being understanding, cooperative, and accommodating. Our ability to X-ray situations and people assists us in reaching solutions that benefit all involved.

Wednesday 2/7: Venus Trine Uranus (1:25 PM), Mars Sextile Neptune (4:20 PM)

A new romantic attraction is exciting albeit not as enduring as we may hope, unless we remain independent, and are willing to give each other a lot of space and freedom. Our social life expands our cultural and intellectual horizons. We could make or lose money rather suddenly and unexpectedly. Our imagination is vivid. Our creativity is enhanced. Unusual friends are stimulating. We are drawn to secrets and out of the ordinary experiences.

Thursday 2/8: Sun Square Uranus (2:45 AM)

A person or situation from the past could unexpectedly resurface helping us re-evaluate our own progress. A day of sudden, stimulating changes requiring unusual, innovative solutions.  

Saturday 2/10: Mercury Square Jupiter (5:25 AM)

Promising more than we can deliver, or trusting people making extravagant pledges is ill-advised. Extremes in business, financial or legal affairs, blind trust, or excessive expectations create more harm than good. Formal functions feel boring. Best to remain as moderate and philosophical as possible.

Monday 2/12: Mars enters Aquarius (10:05 PM) till March 22nd

During the next six weeks, our energy is innovative. We thrive on being different, unique, innovative, and independent.  Unkeen on following the rules or traditions, we unemotionally want to do things our way. Enjoying our freedom of action feels paramount.

Tuesday 2/13: Venus Sextile Neptune (5:36 AM), Mars Conjunct Pluto (10:06 PM)

Highly sensitive to beauty, and aware of higher realms of consciousness, we are caring and compassionate, yet also compulsively driven to bring our own potential out. A rebellion against oppression, a desire to assert ourselves, a need to be productive, and a willingness to cooperate with others towards a constructive common goal could shift our life direction, helping us achieve far-reaching results.

Friday 2/16: Venus enters Aquarius (8:05 AM) till March 11, Mercury Square Uranus (7:53 PM)

During the next three weeks, our humanitarian instincts are greatly enhanced. Our social life expands, becoming more exciting. We are attracted to unusual people from all walks of life who open us to new horizons. Today, more specifically, our plans could be suddenly disrupted. Our perception of a given situation could be transformed by an unexpected information. People could prove unstable and unreliable, acting in erratic, irresponsible ways. We seek freedom from constraints.

Saturday 2/17: Venus Conjunct Pluto (12:48 AM)

Today, to maintain the peace in a committed relationship, it is recommended that, without sacrificing our integrity, we graciously compromise. Our love is put to the test. Any unresolved emotions resurface enabling us to express and transmute festering feelings. A good connection becomes deeper and more passionate. One that was shaky is likely to reach a point of no-return.

Sunday 2/18: the Sun enters Pisces (8:13 PM) till March 19

During the next month, our compassion and psychic sensitivity to beauty, art, and invisible realms are greatly enhanced. Going with the flow, we are dreamy and idealistic. Creativity and imagination are favored. Healers, channelers, actors, musicians, film makers, dancers, photographers, poets, and painters are particularly inspired.

Wednesday 2/21: Venus Conjunct Mars (11:14 PM)

Our social life is friendly and harmonious with a good balance of the masculine and the feminine. An elegant event may require that we pay more attention to our physical appearance and dress fashionably. A wonderful day for a pleasant date.

Thursday 2/22: Mercury enters Pisces (11:29 PM) till March 9

During the next two weeks, our imagination and creativity are enhanced. Deeply moved by music, poetry, and art in general, all forms of beauty inspire us. This may not be the best period to sign legally binding documents, as we tend to be rather dreamy and unrealistic, paying little attention to practical details. Wonderful for taking a vacation, going on a silent retreat, and spending time in quiet contemplation.

Saturday 2/24: Venus Square Jupiter (8:01 PM)

As long as we remain grateful, moderate, and are careful to not fall prey to poor judgement, this day is good for examining our relationships from a more philosophical standpoint. We are likely to be drawn to another culture, are interested in studying a topic that expands our understanding of the world, and keen on sharing with others what has given meaning to our life.

Tuesday 2/27: Mars Square Jupiter (12:30 AM)

Not a day to be extravagant or shop impulsively! An item we desire may be overpriced, or we may later regret that we bought it. Gambling is not advised either, and we should be aware of a risk of theft. Today, moderation is key. Let us remain philosophical without excess, and channel our energy into positive endeavors.

Wednesday 2/28: Sun Conjunct Mercury (12:43 AM), Mercury Conjunct Saturn (7:08 AM), Sun Conjunct Saturn (1:25 PM)

Today we are required to demonstrate the seriousness of our purpose. Seeking the company of mature people whose achievements we respect and admire, focusing on our duties and responsibilities, tackling the work at hand, and completing backlogged projects enable us to achieve long-lasting, practical results.

Thursday 2/29: Mercury Sextile Jupiter (1:53 AM)

Study and travel give our professional position and our finances a chance to expand. Teaching, lecturing, writing, are all favored. Moderation, optimism, and faith open exciting new doors.

Wishing you an exciting month of February!

In Loving Light.
