Happy February! It is my intention that you are well-rested from your winter hibernation period as we move forward into spring with renewal, clarity, focus and the determination to move forward in the age of Aquarius planting seeds with humanitarian reward for the benefit of the greater good.
The Tarot card for the month of February is the 10 of Wands. Ten is the Tarot number of abundance. Wands are the symbol of creative energy. This month is a time to move forward with persistence, enthusiasm, and reliability by utilizing common sense with conduct that is honorable, disciplined and benevolent. This card symbolizes the ability to achieve success in all fields of life; the ability to have a positive influence on others in order to become more as we work from a positive and benevolent perspective (not from a position of fortune or personal reward). Moral fortitude is a great mantra for this month as we may encounter challenges, frustration or feelings of being overwhelmed (even though we are well equipped for handling all our responsibilities when taken in stride).
Questions to ask yourself this month: Is there too much of a good thing? Am I trying to please too many people? Have I taken on too much?
This month it is of particular importance to focus on what is important. Utilize our abilities of discernment to make better choices. Establish boundaries. Have clarity with our focus, intentions and actions. This month it is important to maintain balance with what we take with us moving forward. It is the optimum time to identify what we can (and are willing to) release so that we permit ourselves to move forward with grace, ease and to best manage our load without becoming overwhelmed or burdened by hindering our own progress. Understanding and applying "I do what is mine to do" will be a beneficial theme.
February 7th brings us the Full Snow Moon in Leo. This particular moon brings a great time to create support networks, be creative, have some fun. The moon in Leo marks a time of aspiration and charisma. Ruled by the Sun, Leo creates power, affection, passion and pleasure. It is a time to be social, embrace self-confidence, have boundaries, be inspired, feel distinguished and to help others. It is important to keep the ego and arrogance in check. Be mindful of the yearn for acknowledgement, approval and to avoid melodramatic displays. It is optimum to let go of unhealthy over-indulgences. The time is best to develop individual power, courage and lead in the face of opposition or challenge. You are a bright star in the field of stars and there will be a heightened awareness of extra confidence and pride.
The Feast of St Valentine (the martyr) is on February 14th bringing love, passion and a conviction of how far we would go to defend our beliefs. February 15th is known for the Pagan Festival of Lupercalia as a fertility festival to the Roman God of agriculture - so with the timing of these historic celebrations it is beneficial to reevaluate current convictions and beliefs as to whether or not they are serving us ( and the greater good), and to make room to plant the new seeds for spring of appreciation, love, relationships, gratitude and passions.
The New Moon is on February 21st in Pisces. This new moon is nudging us to comprehend our hidden beliefs, our hidden secrets and mysteries that lie dormant within our consciousness and sub-consciousness. Take the opportunity to resolve issues that may be blocking further growth. Pisces also is a sign of extremes, of empathy, and one that sees through rose-colored glasses. There is gentle optimism, compassion without conditions. This moon will provide a glimpse beyond our usual judgments, a good time to forgive old hurts, soften any wrongs that have caused resentment and to see others from the perspective that we are all doing the best that we can. This moon provides an invitation to integrate your spiritual life into everyday and the bigger shifting of institutions to a more enlightened viewpoint as this new moon can facilitate release or deep sorrows ( if we surrender to it with an open heart) as we strive to comprehend the circumstances and allow the healing to take place. With healing comes acceptance and forgiveness. In time, we will be able to extend our gratitude, gain new awareness and the confidence to create and bring fruition to our desires and hopes for the greater good of all.
What you may witness, feel or experience this month: Stress may have taken a toll on your body. Work to remain calm and in balance. Take the time to cry, release and heal. Make sure that you get adequate rest, sleep and nutrition for mind, body and soul. Be cautious to not take on too much or become overwhelmed. Establish clear boundaries. Make good decisions. Establish priorities and move forward gracefully without resentment or burden. There may be challenges with headaches, stomach or digestive issues, sinus or lungs (processing life elements). There may be challenges with back, shoulders, arms, legs, knees (forgiveness and the ability to move forward), hearts may feel heavy or feelings of "being bogged down" as things aren't moving forward as quickly as desired. Be mindful of ego, drama, and intention. Emotionally and mentally things may be sluggish. Continue to move forward slowly and with patience (moral fortitude) - it well serve you best at this time. Remember - It is ALL good - even though you may not see the movement, things are progressing as they should, and the divine timing is at work (whether we are paying attention or not) Simply be the best you can be, do the best that you are able; as that is ALL the Universe requires to match our efforts and keep us on track.
Safe travels and well wishes
