Its is in the Stars, Week of Feb. 24, 2014

 by Valerie Greene

Big Changes in the Star brew this week.

 With the most helpful being, the planet Mercury's return to direct motion!  Happening with a new moon too, all on Friday Feb. 28, the last day of our month of Feb. 2014

What a new moon gives us, is a chance towards new starts! Anything  new in our life, that we want to expand and grow.

 And what a normal direction, for our planet Mercury does, is help us to move forward at last, with our communication ties, also helping us to finalize, those lasting decissions. 

However, all that glitters at first sight isn't always gold!

 Meaning that even though we will all have some relief from the double trouble, of our Mercury going forward again on Friday. There are unfortunately some other planetary changes that can gum up the works, of us feeling like, we at truly moving on forward, towards accomplishing our long sought after goals. 

 Because , action planet Mars, turns retrograde on March 1, immediately followed by stern Saturn's own retrograde on March 2.

 Brining with it, a period of time that you'll want to review the course you've been traveling as you begin thinking about what needs to change, and why it needs to change!

 Both planets then having their turn at stalling us, that seems to give life a slower repeating pace,

 where we have to work things out through extra effort and patience....maybe bringing out stumbling blocks that might now be  suddenly recognized needing unexpected attention!

 All of that... until both planets get back to their normal forward direction . For Mars that will be after, May 18, 2014..... and for the disciplined planet Saturn that wont happen until July 21, 2014.

Seems like a long period of revaluating our lives, and delays. 

 Just keep in mind that the course of our Stars. help to put our lives on course...even though not always without stumbles, and some pain! 

It will be for progress that can withstand the long haul, so the aggravations and delays in the long run, will be worth it!

It is in the Stars...

This week changes that you need to know!

Happy Birthday Pisces! The Sun just began its yearly trek in your sign!

 Giving you Pisces, sometime this month, your birthday!  Your very own personal New Year!

  Did you know.. that days like this, the beginning of any new planetary cycle tends to set the trend for the days ahead?

So, therefore it would be nice to set the new trend positively! Bringing positive results during that new cycle.

 Today's first full day of the Sun in Pisces has a  Libra moon, in positive aspect to retrograde Mercury in Aquarius.

 By its self this helps to set an innovating trend. But today, Feb. 19, our Libra moon will also co-join the action planet Mars, to give a push towards being more active! 

 

 A nice Help for all signs to want to be more involved with using their energy and passions to get things accomplished.

Seems just what is needed as we prepare for the season of spring!

 However, even though that is true, towards being more productive for the next 30 days, we also have a negative planetary  that can snarl up those activities, and muddy up our communications. 

Yes, it will continue to be the retrograde Mercury causing many aggravations,  and changes of your mind, making it difficult for you to see progress. But also the serious planet Saturn this day in negative aspect to our retrograde Mercury, complicates our thoughts, and keeps us seeing all the negatives.

How to cope? Slow down! Use this months trend towards serious careful thought. Maybe areas of your life that you have up until now, not wanted to deal with?  Also try to be as flexible as possible. Remember that innovation for this time period is the key, toward success!

 Happy moving towards spring, today, and Happy Birthday Pisces! Try extra hard to make this day a good one, as it sets our trend until

March 21 the first full day of our spring, 2014!  

Happy Valentine's Day, everyone! A day to let loved ones know how much you care!

 Looks like our stars are bringing out those feelings, in a big way, with a full moon!

But... this full moon in proud Leo, is also opposite to the planet of communication. So don't be surprised if all those emotions start giving you, and others, mixed messages!

  That is because, part of you would like to show how much you care, and part of you wants to resist... staying aloof and free of any entanglements. 

 Foolish Pride will be at the root, of it all. Suddenly making you want to be noncommittal. 

 However, with the communicator Mercury, still moving backward, whatever you decide, concerning expressing Valentine's Day emotions, you are likely to change your mind about, by the end of the month!

So tread lightly and keep your options open. That way hopefully avoiding some emotional missteps in your future ?

Saturday, and Sunday, it will be easier to express yourself. All thanks to a Virgo moon leading you towards a more practical approach. 

That clearing thinking also can smooth out those ruffled feathers that could have happened on Friday, Valentine's Day. Enjoy! 

 

Important Star changes this week...

by Valerie Greene

 Expect to feel pulled! Tying to please everyone will be impossible, as we enter the cycle that... I call, "double trouble"! 

 Yes, Mercury is indeed again,....changing direction! 

 The planet Mercury, is the planet that rules thought, communications, and travel. And from our earth's view, about three times in a given year, it appears to change its normal direction, and move backward!

 Bringing with it a feeling of moving backward ourselves! A time period when we change our minds often. When thoughts from our past, often resurface. Especially thoughts, concerning communications that were not finished well, or totally completed. This also includes bringing some people back into our lives that we have not connected to, or with for awhile.

 Mercury does this for completion. Bringing us back to things undone. However, that means that doing and thinking new things for this time cycle will not be easy!

 Mercury is now slowing down as I write this, but will appear to stand still, tomorrow Wednesday, Feb. 5...and Thursday, Feb 6, hence...not easy days to get things done or control! Days of feeling on edge, with many delays.

 Then as we ease into Mercury's retrograde...in full swing, Friday, Feb. 7... bringing more delays, confusion, and feeling like we have to do everything we attempt to do, on Friday, over! Setting that double trouble period in time for about three weeks.

 Mercury at last will again start to move forward, on March 1, But, even though there will be less double trouble, after March 1, keep in mind that Mercury will need to get past the point that it began its change in direction, before we ourselves can safely also move forward in our lives, too.

 That date? This year, also happens to be the first day of spring, March 21. A great boost toward a busy get things accomplished, type of Spring!

In the mean time, how to cope? Try to avoid making any new important decissions, or large purchases that you could find unreliable!

 Also, drive with extra care for the next three weeks. Because what we have set in motion in the past, might now come back to bite us...got a ticket, or had an accident? watch out...could happen again in this time cycle...think patience, and get those old problems attended to!
 Making Mercury in rtrograde,,,Purposeful!
