Retrogrades, Eclipses, a Stellium, and an Abundance of Caution
Okay, I haven’t seen this sort of a thing in a long time. Part of it is the current transits (Mercury Retrograde in Aries, Venus Retrograde in Aries and Pisces, a fat stellium, and a pair of eclipses, one in Aries and the other in Virgo and Pisces). The other part is the extreme variety of ways people are feeling and responding to those transits. I have seen people handle worse transits with more joy, ease, and grace. I know part of it is the socio-political-economic impacts of the times we live in. But still, it made me curious. And cautious. I had a feeling there was more to it than that.

February packs so much beauty, power, energy, and emotion into such a short month. Navigating it requires exceptional commitment and extraordinary strength. As winter starts to wane and the spring starts to unfold, we need more time and energy to address everything that is happening and everything that stands before us. But the juxtaposition of the marathon that is 31 days of January and the relatively minuscule 28 days of February—even fewer, depending on how many holidays fall on weekdays—is just such a brutal push.
