It’s the end of the month and what a month it’s been. My Aries daughter graduated middle school and is now headed for High School. She is my last child and it really hit me as I toured her new High School. She’s really growing up. Now she even has a boy friend.
I don’t have final degrees in my birth chart so this Saturn opposition with Uranus, joined this month by Jupiter (let’s not forget Neptune to the side) has not been a biggie for me. It does explain my slow business as I realize many people are under the squeeze of this opposition. Another bead store in town burnt down earlier this month. I figure they were hit by the opposition. I thought it would increase my business so I increased product. They struggle to stay alive setting up a roadside stand. Many struggle under the stress of this opposition as Jupiter joins in. The world itself is a mess. Reading the news verifies this.
My Aries daughter does have a generational 27th degreed Capricorn Neptune that has been influenced by this opposition. She has a 0 degreed Taurus which I call her Aries anchor. Her strongest aspect is 0 degreed Aries Saturn upon the foundation of her personality (28th degreed Pisces IC).
It is this subliminal/spiritual 28th degreed IC/ Midheaven axis that has been under seige by the Retrograding Virgo Saturn opposition with Pisces Uranus. Her whole public image has changed as she has been reserved and methodic most of her life. She now ventures into relationships with the opposite sex. This month the Jupiter ruler of her Sagittarian Ascendant has joined in to the opposition, virtually blocking her Uranus influenced, unigue public image.
All I can say is that she has made a good choice in her 1st boyfriend. I approve of his birth chart. He is the smartest boy in the class (Cancer Sun conjunct Sirius). She is probably the smartest girl in the class. She is still reserved (0 degreed Taurus Mercury) but he is more public. This Scorpio mother is staying out of it watching as his concerned mother takes control.
We leave the month with a wide spread of planets. Mercury in Taurus, the Sun in Gemini, Venus in Cancer, Mars in Leo, Saturn in Virgo. In the outer realms we have Pluto in Capricorn, Neptune in Aquarius, Jupiter in Pisces and Uranus on the border of Pisces /Aries.

February, the month of Aquarian friendship and unity has been an interesting month for me. I’ve been sidetracked by facebook.com which lead me to classmates.com. It’s been a trip down memory lane for me. I moved from the New York east coast to the California west coast 20 years ago. I lost touch with my old friends. All of a sudden I have a way to find them.
I’ve suggested that the mutual reception going on between Aquarian Neptune and Pisces Uranus has alot to do with the internet. The internet being an escape into a world of fantasy that’s constantly changing. A web of intrigue. Chat rooms and message boards are out and larger group orientated my space, twitter and facebook have taken over. Notice my use of the words “larger group orientated”.
This mutual reception also has to do with friendship. This month of february has the Sun and personal inner planets Mercury and Venus adding their focus to Aquarian friendly group orientated projects.
As the personal inner trio moves on heading into Pisces territory of disillusionment I got attacked by some kind of “Security Tool” virus. I had to send my computer to the computer hospital. Pisces is the sign of hospitals and institutions. My Uranian computer was due for an overhaul. It only re-iterates my fear of internet virus attacks, identity theft, etc, etc. Even with security and virus protection these attacks eat at our computers and spread everywhere. They morph constantly.
I discussed the double Yod aspect at the beginning of the month. Since I knew it was a complex interaction that could lead to despair I concentrated on having faith. Retrograding Libran Saturn frustrates me and Retrograding Leo Mars could of made me angry. Pisces Jupiter showed me that I needed to grow spiritually. Neptune is symbolic of the faith I needed to have in the overall picture. This too shall pass. All will be well.
I constantly have to work on perseverence. Fear is the lack of faith. I have to have faith that my oldest son Jude will make it across country with his new wife and 2 young sons. He’s my rolling stone and is headed back to New York. Construction of new homes has slowed down to a snails pace in Carson City. He’s been an unemployed framer for a while now and is headed back east in hopes of finding work. Many people are sick and tired of being unemployed.
My 3rd son (1983) has had a hairy month too. His Aquarian Moon handle has been through the mill. I can’t go into the details but as an astrologer I know it’s that pesky Aquarian Moon being triggered over and over as the personal inner Sun, Mercury, and Venus dance upon it.
Knowing that this increase in Aquarian vibrations and double yod was working helped me work my way through this month. I’m fully prepared for March. March winds are on their way.

I’ve been feeling “out there” for a while now. I’m obsessed with taking pictures of my jewelry and learning how to show it in picture form. This is a big waste of time. Handmade jewelry by an American is a big waste of time. No ones going to pay for the time and materials it takes to make a necklace. It’s taking twice as much time to photograph it, write about it and get it online.
This is what I have been insanely trying to do all January. Since the Cancer Lunar and Capricorn Solar Eclipse started. I’m sick to my stomach over this. I’m disillusioned (Neptune) over the complexity and vastness of the internet (Uranus). I’ve been searching (Pluto) to understand this virtual world that has taken over the American way of life.
It’s hard enough to get noticed in a small town. It’s virtually impossible to get noticed when the odds are quadrupled by the thousands. Someone once told me that “all I am is dust in the wind” and that’s how I feel these days. An infantisimal speck in the vastness of the world.
I do not wallow in despair. I’m simply expressing my conclusion.
Retrograding Leo Mars is working it’s way back through my 12th house. I like to think of the Leo 12th room as my creative spiritual room. A room I can retreat into to find spiritual peace. As I said my energy this month has been working it’s way through an invisible astrological virtual land of creative despair. I’m going to have to use faith to find my way out. Leo artists are rarely appreciated in the 1st place. No one appreciates my website but I continue with it as my artistic Leo spiritual (12th) outlet.
I shall continue to use Libran Saturns vibration for this aesthetic project. Libra is a territory symbolic of beauty and my jewelry is beautiful. I use beautiful stones that are appreciated in works of art called jewelry. Have you ever noticed how your eye is drawn to a persons jewelry? Stones have vibrations. They are little pieces of the Earth that we wear.
Capricorn Pluto has me delving deep into the mystery of capitalism. How can I be a successful business person? 1st of all I can not give in to Saturns fear and frustration. I must continue to persevere no matter what the odds are. This is a dog eat dog world and I must use these Capricorn Pluto (and Libran Saturn) vibrations to get organized.
Capricorn Pluto approaches my Progressed Capricorn Sun. It’s not there yet but I can feel the approach of success. It’s always “darkest before the dawn” will be my motto. Libran Saturn approaches my exalted birth Libran Saturn (after this Retrograde period). Pisces Jupiter approaches my birth Aries Jupiter in a year. I am “approaching” the peak of the mountain. I must not give in to the stress and difficulties of the climb to the top.
