RELATIONSHIP ASTROLOGY FEBRUARY 12 THROUGH FEBRUARY 27

SYNOPSIS: Some tensions, turbulence and creative inspirations in our close network mark the weeks of the FULL MOON to NEW MOON. Powerful transformations in your relationships are a potential. We want the best for ourselves and will work for it. It is not necessarily through conflict, though there is definitely some motivating friction present, but there is now a sense of determination to get any chronic glitches in our relational infrastructure corrected that arose in the last few weeks. Have heart though. If we can keep ourselves out of victim mentality or unnecessary drama and engage our adulting personality parts we will be thanking ourselves later.

THE DETAILS: A few days ago we all experienced the MOON conjunct MARS Rx and MERCURY conjunct the SUN which may have generated some extra anxiety and aggression if not some powerful conversations. Now at the FULL MOON those have moved on a bit but the SUN is still square to disruptive URANUS for a few more days which may be triggering some kind of leap for freedom or revolution. Turbulence and tension. LILITH is square PLUTO which adds to our unconscious drive for independence and the expression of our wild side.

MARS Rx is getting ready to turn direct on February 23rd and so is pretty much stopped in the sky. Its been swinging square to the healer CHIRON since the end of January and due to the change in apparent motion hangs on to that aspect until through most of March. This has been creating a lot of friction around our intrinsic wounds. Building pressure to move forward in doing what we can to transmute those wounds into wisdom and gifts. Fortunately, at the same time MARS has been, and will be in a trine to SATURN until April. This aspect pumps up our determination to grind through whatever obstacles we encounter of which there may be many. Healing and the acquisition of wisdom is by necessity a long and arduous task and this period is crucial in our journey. Not fun, but necessary.

Contrarily and auspiciously, JUNO which represents our commitment to relationships is trine to dreamy and spiritual NEPTUNE and in a wedge pattern with the MOONS NODES (JUNO trine NN and sextile SN) from January until the end of February which may pump up our romantic and idealized view our close relationship and connect it all strongly and beneficially to the long-term trajectory of our relationships. Be aware it may not go as we hope or imagine but whatever happens can eventually clear some sticky karma and grow us up some more.VENUS gets into a half square with URANUS for a few days, it peaks on the 18th, which may briefly push us out of our comfort zone. This can be liberating and exciting or scary, depending on how well we can work with the unexpected on the fly. Its only about a week so try to roll with it as best you can. At least things are not boring and stagnant.

MERCURY enters PISCES on the 14th and the SUN gets there on the 17th making a PISCES party that goes on until approximately March. SUN, MERCURY, SATURN, NORTH NODE, NEPTUNE and finally, the NEW MOON (on the 27th), all crowd into watery PISCES. This mutable sign emphasizes being flexible and adaptable, compassionate and guided by emotions and intuition and merging with the larger whole. On the negative side PICSES can be indecisive, confused and escapist so show some grit.  It seems like its going to be a melty month where a lot of things may become uncertain while they go through a liquid phase. This is really just a higher continuation of what having both SATURN and NEPTUNE in PISCES for the last two years and 14 years, respectively, has been presenting us. SATURN and NEPTUNE both bust out of PICSES and into action-oriented ARIES, at least for a while, this year and a lot of things will start to crystalize, for better or for worse, from then on. ARIES is the start of the zodiac and SATURN + NEPTUNE cross back and forth into it significantly joined together as awkward bedfellows to launch the second act of the slow-pocalypse we are all in.

Last but not least, JUPITER, now getting some momentum direct, sadly won’t really be showering us with its potential for good luck and optimism too much this period. As we approach the NEW MOON, JUPITER trines wild and free LILITH and begins to lightly sextile VENUS and we may find ourselves tempted to blow money we don’t have or pursue a hopeless romance because it is also just beginning to square the SUN then.

This all looks like two weeks of leaning into some sharp points of some necessary house cleaning and inner work before we head in to the further transformations of 2025. Of course your experience will be dominated by the aspects and transits occurring in your own chart. We all have our part to play in how this goes.
