February Horoscopes

by Henry Seltzer

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 - June 20)
Mutable Air. Your ruling planet is Mercury.

Everyone around you is joining hands, Gemini, although not necessarily in the physical. You are tempted to shout �alle alle outsinfree� just like in the childhood game. A mystical nature overcomes you at times so that the other-dimensionality of the outer universe is no longer just a rumor. You are, from the security of a deeply felt place of inner refuge, discovering new worlds not so much to conquer as to enliven and even to embrace. All this would be wonderful were it not for the nagging thought that you must somehow still take care of real-world business. This is not as much of a problem as you think since you are simultaneously occupying at least two realities at once. Try clapping your hands three times and softly whispering "make it so."

As the month begins you are in a mode of philosophical speculation. Even more than usual for you � your curiosity and urge to explore other-dimensional realities is strong and vibrant and informs your sense of reality fully as much as the varied and colorful life within strictly the physical plane. Your sense of the depths of your being has an important purpose in that you are investigating the well-springs of desire with an idea of better understanding these emotions, including any dysfunctional patterns stemming from early wounding that are still frozen in place these many years later and still causing you problems when they arise from out of the blue to throw their monkey-wrenches straight into the machinery with which you navigate your everyday world. By looking more closely into these problems you can move beyond them, not by willing them out of existence and not by ignoring them either, but by facing them with a calm and fearless acceptance which allows you to more fully integrate these walled-off feelings and move on. The Full Moon of Tuesday, February 7th, comes along as a relatively peaceful and thoughtful energy that yet strongly encourages this process of increased awareness. You have tremendous drive at this juncture it is true, but it is mostly aimed at the inside of your psyche. You are in essence a spiritual warrior for the cause of truth, and not the shifting and insubstantial truth of consensus thinking but rather the deeply intuitional truth that comes to you from within the purview of your own mind and heart. You are determined to shift what is necessary in you and in others around you to make that truth a more concrete and fully present reality for you as you ease into an uncertain future, resting in the knowledge that one thing at least cannot fail you and that is your ultimate dependence on Spirit and your inner strength to guide you through. With the Last Quarter Moon of Tuesday, February 14th, Valentine's Day, you are looking into the events of the last few weeks even more closely. There is a way that you are hoping to refine your understanding of what has transpired and see things is a realistic and also boldly idealistic fashion as you continue through a month of massive changes, with more on the horizon. Nothing will make sense t you know if it is not the �path with heart� as Carlos Castaneda puts it, namely that vocation which is also the avocation of your soul making sense out of this world. You are feeling this idea even more strongly at the time of the New Moon a week later, taking place on Tuesday, February 21st in your career sector and in conjunction with mystical Neptune. Then you are challenged to have it all; the consciousness of struggle and limitation, and of prior wounding, together with the brightest possible hope for a future that somehow knits everything together, just as it should be, and in some sense already was.
