February Horoscopes

by Henry Seltzer

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

Dream on, Pisces, and recognize that your dreams might easily morph into so-called reality and� vice-versa. This is definitely a time to look more closely at your life in three dimensions even as a surge of energy takes you quite beyond them. Your resources, including financial ones, have been fluctuating for weeks now, with surprising pay-offs as well as shortfalls so that there is no discernable trend. Now in this present month the drama of it all fades to less importance compared to finding out why your basic sense of security has been so affected by what is after all only a concept. Relationship is another area that is subject to a more intense scrutiny than usual as you mentally meander through surface events in search of the deeper � and more truly vital � meaning.

As the month begins, you are feeling the rush of the recent New Moon from the end of last month in your sector of dream realities behind and beyond your conscious mind. This is a place you are already comfortable and familiar with, but in this period you might feel even more sensitive than usual. You are mentally pregnant as well with the possibilities inherent with the entrance of mystical Neptune into your sign, the sign that it rules, which comes up as early in the month as Friday, February 3rd. This is therefore a special month of a special year, when your idealism will run strong and when you are challenged to avoid the confusion that is naturally associated with the collision between the physical planes of existence here on planet earth in contrast with those energies that are far beyond the physical and yet underlie it. Since these energies are extremely powerful for you at this time you are getting a crash course this month in handling the paradox. You are in an unusual place in which you fully sense the unbounded potential of your situation and yet also the limitations that are entirely inherent in the human condition. You have to somehow make it all work in spite of these and in the light of your other-worldly faith in each and every possibility to unfold for you in glorious fashion. There is a way that it is all true: the bounded straight-jacketed actuality together with the unbounded sense of possibility, and the secret lies within the infinite expansion of your own mind and heart, to the extent that you can really tune in there. These contrasts are even more pronounced by the time of the Full Moon of Tuesday, February 7th, when Saturn, representing the limitation side of the equation, is also standing still in the sky, having turned to retrograde motion on the very same day. This is ideally a time of balance and of a sense of service to the greater collective and to your own inner world, as you can manage to hold as equally dear to you both horns of the dilemma of existence. Significant persons in your life are important to you now as well, and you might get caught in the normal trap of projecting your inner struggle onto others. You are a warrior for your cause and you could run into active disagreements if you do not handle the energy by attending to what is going on and taking back the projection. These matters reach yet another stage of conflict and of potential resolution with the Last Quarter Moon of Tuesday, February 14th, Valentine's Day. This is another powerful juncture, traditionally a time of mulling things over and seeking to find a way to understand more fully what is coming down both in terms of outer events and of inner realizations, and this month made even more intense by the magnitude of your potential shifts. You are preparing the way for another new phase as your birthday time approaches. The New Moon of Tuesday, February 21st, is an extremely potent one for you, when you might feel yourself actually crossing a kind of inner threshold. The past is very much with you now, both with regard to family issues that still percolate somewhere inside you and also your consciousness of early wounding which has been showing up in the borderlands of your awareness for some time as well. There is nothing you can do about the past except to continue to acknowledge and accept it, as you have been this month struggling to accept current realities also, and to regard whatever has happened, even if painful at the time, as somehow meant to be.
