Sharing Your Heart Energy But Detaching from Drama
By James Jarvis, M.A.
By adding the universal year 2005 (2+0+0+5=7) to the 2nd month of February, we come up with the vibration of 9. The 9 month is a time to complete outstanding projects so you can free up extra energy to devote to your inner life. Take some time off for self-healing and renewal this month.
With Venus in Aquarius from Feb. 2 to 26, we have an opportunity to broaden our personal value system. Venus in Aquarius helps us envision a new paradigm of relationship that is in sharp contrast to the traditional codependent model. Since Venus rules the heart chakra, you might want to explore new ways of sharing your heart energy. Let Venus in Aquarius help you open your heart to greater intimacy and authenticity in all of your relationships.
Mars moves through the sign of Capricorn from Feb. 6 to Mar. 20. With Mars in Capricorn, you have the ability to concentrate your will so you can bring your goals into manifestation. Mars in Capricorn is like the general who creates the battle plan and then uses strategy, tactics and the skillful use of resources to put the plan into action. In order to manifest, you must be willing to set up such a strong intention that the universe knows you are serious. Use Mars in Capricorn this month to create a strong plan for the manifestation of your worthwhile goals.
The new moon at 20 degrees Aquarius on Feb. 8 brings in a new cycle of growth and awareness. Relationships, in particular, will be affected by this event, as the moon represents what we need for emotional security. The new moon in Aquarius calls us to learn emotional detachment. The challenge is to be able to detach from our relationship dramas without abandoning our partner or ourselves.
Mercury journeys through the sign of Pisces from Feb. 16 to Mar. 5. With Mercury in Pisces, it’s time to re-envision your dreams. One of the most powerful ways you can do this is to access the realm of imagination through journaling, drawing, meditation or daydreaming. It is through this realm that all new possibilities are created. By allowing your imagination to lead at this time, you may access new ways of being that you’ve never “dreamed” of before.
Chiron, which takes 50 years to orbit the sun, moves through the sign of Aquarius from Feb. 2005 to Apr. 2010. Those born between 1/29/55 to 3/26/60 and 8/20/60 to 1/20/61 will have Chiron returning to the same position it was at birth sometime over the next five years. Many people with Chiron in Aquarius deal with issues of alienation and feeling like the black sheep of the family. The truth is that with Chiron in Aquarius, you really don’t fit in and that’s the point. Each of us has to deal with becoming our own person despite what others feel, want or think.
The full moon in Virgo on Feb. 24 helps you nurture the relationship between body and mind. Use this month to find out what your body needs to support your emotional health. Maybe it needs more exercise, better nutrition or more attention to your diet. Use the positive qualities of Virgo, discernment and discrimination, to put your life and daily routine into increasingly coherent order.
AQUARIUS (JAN. 21-FEB. 18) The clarity and objectivity you usually rely on may be missing right now. It may even look a bit like confusion! The confusion, however, is just an opportunity to transcend your normal ways of thinking. This is a time for vision questing and thinking outside of the box. Your higher mind is particularly receptive to new possibilities. Take some time to tune in to this guidance.
PISCES (FEB 19-MAR. 20) You might find that your need for solitude will increase this month. There is much to be gained by paying attention to your need for self-renewal. Being in nature, meditating, dream work, visualization and guided imagery are ways of nourishing this part of yourself. Don’t worry, you won’t become lost in the cosmos! You are just recalibrating your rudder so that your guidance system is in order.
ARIES (MAR. 21-APR. 20) Pay attention to your imagination this month, as it will reveal keys to your long-range vision. There is a strong urge to connect with like-minded community, so look for groups that have similar values and vision for support. You may find that your thirst for spirituality and higher truth are the driving forces in your life right now.
TAURUS (APR. 21-MAY 21) An opportunity to create a new relationship with your own sense of personal power is at hand. Look to see if you have limiting thoughts that prevent you from expressing your power. Clearing outdated perceptions will enable you to just let yourself be. This could have a major impact on your career, as others will see you as a leader.
GEMINI (MAY 22-JUN. 20) You may be reevaluating what is important to you, particularly on a material level. There is an urge to let go of what you don’t need and to simplify your life. Creativity is heightened, and you might want to beautify your environment in some way. There is a new desire for stillness and peace that draws you inward. Meditation may be just the ticket.
CANCER (JUN. 21-JUL. 20) Activities that give you an opportunity to be in your body are really important right now. You have a ton of energy, but maybe haven’t had an outlet for it. Being outdoors, sports, and traveling are all channels for this energy. There is a sense of wanting to have more fun too! Discover what it is that you love to do and do it! As your heart opens, you will discover new joy and relationships.
LEO (JUL. 21-AUG. 22) Your intuition and ability to tune in to others is very strong. Try sharing what you are picking up with friends and loved ones. This will give you feedback about the accuracy of your perceptions and could help them discover more about themselves. You have a strong desire to communicate more harmoniously right now. Being mindful of what your intuition is telling you will support this goal.
VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEP. 22) Finances are enhanced by taking time to visualize your ideal scene. Put aside your natural practicality for a moment and try to let your imagination take over. You are unusually creative now, but this creativity doesn’t come from your mind. It comes from your ability to just let yourself dream. Try suspending the critic and the editor and just brainstorm possibilities. Tapping into this realm will provide ideas that your left brain will love!
LIBRA (SEP. 23-OCT. 22) You are more sensitive than usual to issues of equality and justice this month. It’s like you are becoming a warrior for peace. There is a deepening commitment to speaking the truth even though you might “rock the boat.” Your words have tremendous force behind them, so remember to temper your directness with compassion and diplomacy.
SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21) Communicating the depth of your emotions is your biggest task this month. This could involve dialoging with family members about unresolved issues from the past. You have a new sense of detachment that will help curb unnecessary reactions. Focus on your desire to let go of the past and create a deeper bond and connection with family.
SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 20) Your personal willpower is very high, and you may be “chomping at the bit” to get moving. If you have been feeling frustrated or held back, try to own this rather than projecting it on others. The change you seek is within. As you start taking action based upon your core values, you will find that external conditions will begin to support you.
CAPRICORN (DEC. 21-JAN. 20) Boundaries are being explored in the context of your personal relationships this month. If you have been too cautious in this area, you are being asked to let go, trust and open your heart. If you have been giving yourself away, you are learning how to say no. Either way, there is tremendous growth available to you. What you want most are relationships that are mutually supportive.
