MOVING FORWARD IN A STATE OF FLOW
Now that all the planets are moving in a forward direction things begin to speed up. In the coming weeks and months, we will be thinking more of what is ahead of us and less of what is behind us.
We can make plans for the experiences, projects, and adventures that we want to create. An easier flow develops. This comes as a relief and we know that a new Spring is ahead of us and now coming into focus.

ACTION BEFORE REST
Monday, February 7, 2022
Following the possibly hot-headed weekend with the Moon in Aries, the energy shifted last evening when she entered Taurus. The shift of the Moon into Taurus prepared us for more stability and calm as the week begins. The Moon will remain in sensual steadfast Taurus for the next few days.With the Moon in Taurus, our desires become centered on physical comfort, security, and beauty. Life tends to slow down as we do what we can to create stability and calm in our mental, emotional, and physical environments.
Between 2 PM EST and 7 PM EST, the Moon follows a path that may bring with it stronger energy than you would expect. Make it a point to utilize this boost in your system. Use this potential of innovative and surprising action to push forward a project that has implications for the future. You may surprise yourself and others with how much you can get done before heading home to rest.

INNOVATION SUPPORTS ACCOMPLISHMENT
Tuesday, February 8, 2022
Another full day with the Moon in the Fixed Earth sign of Taurus. Taurus is the sign of steadfast stability and is focused on sensual awareness and the real world of our physical senses. Taurus asks that we turn our attention to building and maintaining the practical structures that support our lives. When the Moon is in Taurus we are asked to slow down, quiet down, and spend time in stillness.At 8:50 AM EST, we come to the First Quarter Square of the Lunar Cycle that began at the New Moon on February 1st. Consider the metaphorical seed of intention that you planted at that time. You will want to take action today to encourage the growth of that intention. It does not need to be anything outlandish, a small focused step forward will do.
At 9:57 AM EST, Mars in Capricorn forms a 120° trine aspect to Uranus. This opens the gate to taking unexpected action on innovative accomplishments. You are ready to make a bold statement by taking uncharacteristic actions today.
Yes, there may be risk involved but you are willing to take it. Freedom and authenticity are more important to you than safety or toeing the line. You are wide awake and alert as you willingly tread new ground and implement new techniques. Creativity flows freely.

SHARE STORIES, THOUGHTS, & IDEAS
Wednesday, February 9, 2022
At 5:27 AM EST, the Moon enters Gemini where it will remain for several days. With the Moon in this Mutable Air sign expect curiosity and quick-paced conversations to punctuate the day. Gathering and sharing information, perspectives, and ideas will support pleasure and personal connections. If you feel restless engaging others in easy repartee will settle your anxiety. This is a great day to be with friends, talking about a wide variety of light topics, and simply enjoying fun interactions. When the Moon is in Gemini, encounters tend to be easy, friendly, and light-hearted. Variety is important and we are interested in diverse topics on a rather superficial level. This is a great time for getting to know new people, passing on quick communications, and completing random errands.
If you have to work today, focus on simple communications tasks. Catch up on all your emails, make any phone calls necessary, and contact folks that you need to interact with.
On Friday when Mercury conjuncts Pluto powerful topics will come into focus, for now, keep it light, airy, and simple.

POWER BELOW THE SURFACE
Thursday, February 10, 2022
On the surface, today looks like a simple day with the Moon passing through Gemini, making a lovely trine aspect to supportive Saturn at 3:21 PM EST. However, there are more powerful dynamics underground that will come to the surface today or tomorrow.Mercury happily turned direct a week ago but is still passing over the ground they covered while retrograde. Tomorrow morning Mercury will make their final conjunction to Pluto. We will talk about this more in tomorrow’s post but it will help to be preparing and thinking about it now.
If your thinking remains superficial today, you may say something that creates difficulties tomorrow. A serious powerful mental consideration is in the works. Don’t be in a hurry but do pay attention to what you need to say and how to do so without causing harm. Don’t let resentments or power plays fester under the surface. Turn a light on your own intentions and make sure they are of high integrity, clarity, and kindness.

CONVERSATIONS OF POWER AND INTENSITY
Friday, February 11, 2022
The Moon continues through Gemini for most of the day but doesn’t suggest the casual lightness we generally think of when the Moon is in Gemini. At 9:04 AM EST Mercury joins with Pluto for the last of three times connected to Mercury’s recent retrograde. December 30, 2021, Mercury (direct) joined with Pluto. January 28th Mercury (retrograde) joined with Pluto, and today it makes its final contact. After this Mercury will get out of Pluto’s intense deep territory.
What profound difficult conversations or powerful contemplations have been relevant at this time? This conjunction occurs at 27 degrees Capricorn. Take note of the house that holds Capricorn in your chart. If you have planets in the very late degrees of the Cardinal signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn) this is very relevant for you personally.
If you are able to identify the issue in your life know that this is the end of (this chapter) of the story. What were the powerful topics and the intense conversations occurring in your life during this time? Expect to revisit the issues, topics, and conversations in some manner.
For larger-scale issues, keep an eye on the Ukraine tension and the Ghislaine Maxwell story over these few days.
At 6:27 PM EST, the Moon moves into Cancer bringing your attention closer to home and hearth. Spend the evening with close family and friends. Plan to hunker down for the weekend with loved ones.

COMFORT AND SENSITIVITY
Saturday, February 12, 2022
With the Moon now in Cancer, it is time to release all restlessness and any difficulties held over from the week. This weekend is meant for getting in touch with deep feelings, sensitivities, and motivations. You want to spend time at home with those you love, to be able to settle into a state of comfort.
Cooking, feeding your loved ones, and nurturing others is likely to be high on your priority list. Plan a family dinner and spend the day cooking. Food is indeed one of the quickest ways to touch the heart of another. Nurture is such a primal need, when food is lovingly prepared we feel it as love.
At 2:35 PM EST as the Cancer Moon trines Jupiter, further expanding your heart. Reach out to your mother, your sister, or any family member you know would be delighted to hear your voice. At 4:49 PM EST, the Moon forms a sextile aspect to Uranus. You may receive a surprise communication from a loved one.

FIND PLEASURE IN DOMESTICITY
Sunday, February 13, 2022
Today brings us to another day with the Moon in Cancer. This suggests a day of domestic concerns and activities. You will be happiest if you simply stay home and nurture yourself and your loved ones.
Think about the variety of domestic activities, they are not made of the same cloth. When the Moon is in Cancer we don’t want to clean, organize, or tidy our home, that is the domain of the Virgo Moon. When the Moon is in Cancer we don’t want to make things pretty or put flowers on the bedside table, that is the domain of the Libra Moon. With the Cancer Moon, we want to cuddle on the couch with a loved one or a beloved pet. Preparing a wonderful meal or baking a pie will feed your soul, but cleaning up afterward is not part of the pleasure.
At 2:16 PM EST, the Moon forms a flowing trine aspect to Neptune. You may choose an afternoon nap. Go ahead. You can always justify rest on a Sunday afternoon.
In these weekly reports, I explore the major aspects formed by transit between the planets. I do not consider every aspect that the Moon makes each day as they can be numerous and give rise to fleeting moods. The aspects under consideration: conjunctions, sextiles, squares, trines, and oppositions. The planets I work with: Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto.
The Changing Moon this Week
The Moon sets the emotional tone as she moves through the Zodiac day-to-day. It takes approximately 28 days to traverse the entire Zodiac.
