February 2015

(all times PST)

February may be short but it packs a powerful punch. Several, in fact. We can do great things in great bursts, so be sharp, keep things in focus, and keep that head up!

Sun Feb 01 the Moon is in Cancer when Venus is conjunct Neptune. Dream on. It doesn’t get much softer than this. Give yourself permission to feel deep, and have that much more beauty to write about later.

Tue Feb 03 we have the Full Moon at 14 Leo. This lunar month, put more noble concerns into your words. Heck, resolve to be more noble. Later at night, the Moon is conjunct Jupiter. Tonight and tomorrow are lucky times, so think and act with big spirit.

Wed Feb 04 the Moon is in Leo all day, entering Virgo late that evening. Write big and know that you can pull back and tidy up later.

Fri Feb 06 the Moon is in Virgo all day. Late morning, the Sun opposes Jupiter. Get a grip. In the afternoon, the Moon opposes Mars. Take off in a better direction.

Wed Feb 11 the Moon is in Scorpio when Mercury goes stationary direct. Get mentally organized, be serious about what you want to do and why, and don’t fret if you don’t get a lot of words down today.

Thu Feb 12 the Moon is conjunct Saturn in Sagittarius. You can deal successfully with even the biggest projects. It’s a good day to outline that door-stop of a novel.

Sun Feb 15 the Moon is conjunct Pluto in Capricorn. This always makes things look more dire and flawed than they really are. Stay calm, be methodical, do things in increments, and feel upbeat no matter what. Sunday is the Sun’s day. Let your spirit shine.

Mon Feb 16 the Moon is conjunct Mercury in Aquarius. Mercury is no longer retrograde but it’s moving slowly Your thinking may still be a bit slow, too. Think slow and careful. Heads Up in a good way. Be patient with people, including yourself.

Tue Feb 17 is Mardi Gras. Let the good times roll! It’s also the day before the New Moon, so Heads Up and don’t get rolled over or rolled away. Keep your eye on your work, keep a low profile, and get a lot done. And be safe.

Wed Feb 18 we have the New Moon at 29Aq. You can see the big picture without getting lost in it all. Feel a part of something big all lunar month long. Almost immediately after the New Moon, the Moon promptly enter Pisces. Be grateful for that last gasp of Aquarius. Have powerful feelings (as all writers and artists need) without getting all mushy and ambiguous about your work. Three minutes later, the Sun enters Pisces. All doors are open to your instincts and intuition now. Write, write, want to write, and write from the heart. You can organize it better later.

Thu Feb 19 we start the Chinese New Year. It’s the Year of the Sheep. The Moon is in Pisces all day, and it is conjunct Neptune in the very early hours. Dreams may be hard to shake today, so if any dreams seep into your work, don’t be surprised. You may want to make use of them, anyway. In the afternoon, Mars changes signs, leaves Pisces and enters its home sign of Aries. Heads Up. Mars doesn’t get much stronger than this. While your mind and feelings may be swimming in circles, you may be yearning to hit the ground running with some project. Keep your sense of direction and don’t bounce off any walls.

Fri Feb 20 the Moon is in Pisces when Venus now changes signs, leaves Pisces and enters Aries. Love, beauty, and good manners get much more proactive. Three hours and eight minutes later, the Moon also leaves Pisces and enters Aries. It may be hard to hold back on something that isn’t quite ready to go yet. I won’t even bother telling you to be patient. At least try to be sensible and safe. Measure twice, then cut once. Something like that. Seventeen minutes more and the Moon is conjunct Venus. This may not slow you down but it can keep you aimed in a more pleasant and agreeable direction. Fifty-eight minutes more and the Moon conjuncts Mars. Heads Up! So much for slowing down. Be passionate about what you’re doing but don’t get belligerent about it. Things may be calmer night, as the evening ends with the Moon making a trine with Saturn. Feel older, wiser, and more mature in how you deal with your work.

Sat Feb 21 the Moon is conjunct Uranus in Aries. Heads Up. If you want to hide out at home and write, go for it. It could get wild out there this weekend, and even if you don’t cause any trouble, trouble could still find you. That evening, Venus and Mars are conjunct, yes, in Aries. Hot times. Passions don’t get higher than this. Heads Up! Oh, let’s make that Heads Up!!!!

Tue Feb 24 the Moon enters Gemini in the evening. Write up a storm from now till early in the morning Friday. You may have energy to burn that’s left over from the weekend, so pump it into your work.

Wed Feb 25 the Moon is in Gemini all day. Write, read, converse, discuss, and network with abandon. In the evening, Mars is trine Saturn. About two hours later, the Sun is conjunct Neptune in Pisces. Judgment may not be very sharp but inspiration is abundant. Think of it as not yet edited stream of consciousness.

Thu Feb 26 about an hour after midnight the Moon makes a sextile with Jupiter and then goes void of course for the rest of the day. It’s still in Gemini, though. Write on!

Fri Feb 27 the Moon leaves Gemini at 4:50 am and enters Cancer. It’s been a frantic last several days and if you want to take a break and be a homebody, go for it. You can still write, or at least read, at home, you know.

What a wild, manic Heads Up kind of month! The good news is that Mercury is direct before the end of it all. Be patient in all your endeavors and give yourself time to untangle any knots that have been tied this month. You can handle it. You can be gloriously productive this month, too, don’t forget. Do the best you can each day, for yourself as well as for others. All your work is ultimately destined for others, anyway, right? Write! Edit, submit, keep in touch with your contacts, and don’t backslide if and when things bog down. Don’t let yourself feel isolated. You are so very much not alone!

Don’t hesitate to be spectacular, because you are! Heads Up!
