February Horoscopes

by Henry Seltzer

Pisces Horoscope (February 19 - March 20)
Mutable Water. Your ruling planets are Neptune and Jupiter.

Your sensitivity is always high but this month it knows no bounds, Pisces. You might find yourself in something of a fog, albeit a productive one. One part of you is lost in it, while the other is seeking a new and more centered form of stability, and considering ways and means. Significant others in your life take on new importance as the month unfolds. Old patterns participate but for a change under your control rather than theirs. You are on the edge of something phenomenal and only have to lift your gaze to the broadest possible perspective in order to fully see it. This is in every way the first month of the rest of your life.

As the month begins, you are riding the wave of the Aquarius New Moon into cosmic spaces below and beyond the reach of your conscious mind. This is familiar territory for your sensitive Piscean energy so it might not seem to be much of a stretch for you, but it is true that your normal humming along daytime self will be on the back burner for a while, at least until the 18th when the Sun crosses into your sign. This is a powerful time for delving down into the internals of your process as you have an uncanny ability now to resolve what has been stuck and move more readily through your accumulated changes. There could be a surprising breakthrough. Although operating largely from your unconscious you are also very aware of opportunities for growth in your professional persona and with the resources that you bring to the table of waking-world outer life. The First Quarter Moon of Thursday, February 10th, could place some obstacles in your path. These might take the form of communicative snags with family or loved ones, and allow you to make progress still, as long as these difficulties are surmounted. You win when you avoid getting stuck in the conflict but use the energy to find a synthesizing "third way." You are very determined in your approach at this time and by getting creative rather than reactive you can work wonders. The Full Moon that comes along in the following week, taking place just after midnight on the West coast, on the night of Thursday, February 17th, and on into the next morning, of the 18th, brings your ongoing transformational process into a new phase. You are very aware of significant partners in your life, and of the necessity for balancing issues of self and other. There could be a strong sense of self that emerges now, and also a tendency toward undirected intention that might be difficult to manage. You have to wink one eye and see the world through levels of intuition rather than by making use of purely logical constructions. You are also more aware right now than usual of the potential for knee-jerk reactions to trip you up, and are therefore in a position to become more conscious of these old patterns of behavior and therefore more accepting of yourself at deep levels. It is amazing how much progress you can make with these ancient issues, when you are willing to simply apply your heart rather than your head to the problem. The Last Quarter Moon of Thursday, February 24th, represents another opportunity for greater understanding and acceptance, since these issues are now magnified. You are experiencing a crisis of consciousness, in the phrase of master astrologer Dane Rudhyar, meaning that you are questioning your most basic assumptions now, and you might be surprised at the extent of your realizations.
