The energies are swiftly traveling the universe this week as the First Quarter Moon in Gemini occurs and the sign shifts to Pisces until the end of the month , while the gods of love and war finally part their ways. This week we also have a Venus and Mars trine as Saturn and Neptune drift in front of the Sun. Sometimes things can seem to be going slow. Or maybe for some signs really fast! Regardless we all feel as if we are shifting time a bit. Some of us need things to be fast past right now in their journey and others a bit more relaxed. Saturn is good for the energy flow as we each start through new projects from last weeks new moon.
Saturn also is a great energy boost for success it makes us get that reboot we need to feel as if we are right on track. You may be learning a new skill at a fast pace. Progressing on a new project or maybe you got a raise or promotion at work. Or maybe you are simply enjoying a well deserved vacation allowing yourself to store all the knowledge you've recently gained and are about to collect on your next adventure. All is well when we are progressing and moving forward each at our own pace.
That being said the Sun and Neptune are getting together for a once a year combination. This can cause caution because when these energies cross it is not recommended to be making big decisions. It is suggested that you take time for yourself that day to relax and reflect on more positive and majestic things and save hasty decisions for next week
Also in the Cosmic front we have the moon setting in to a waxing crescent ( In Gemini) which will create a triangular pattern with two rather bright star clusters - Hyades and Pleiades in the constellation of Taurus. These clusters are two of the closest to Earth. The star Aldebaran will also appear rather closely to the moon at this time making for stunning photos or simple star gazing.
Wednesday ( Feb 25) will also be a great day for sky watchers to look for their binoculars and check out Mercury. Rising slightly before the sun , the innermost planet will be shining bright for about 30 minutes before sunrise.
As I mentioned before Mars and Venus the gods of love and war will be parting ways at the end of this week. Which seems to be food for many of us as their energy has brought up a lot of family burdens. Often times when these two get together it reminds us that we are much different than our parental figures. Causing for some confrontational energies. Ya know... Love for thy fam , but war when you stand up for yourself. It is really a time to stand your ground though even if it means parting ways from those who may disagree for a while. We don't need any more negativity being blasted on earth. If you can't get a long with someone seperate yourselves rather than feeding the negative energies. That being said this event does bring some extra lights in the sky for us to look too. Both planets will be near the moon as the begin to part ways. Another challenge is to find Uranus which is only about 5 degrees from Venus.
It seems like there is a lot happening in our cosmic world this week. As always SHINE BRIGHT.
