Leo, February 2010
Your Shui:
Called the ‘dean of science fiction writers,’ the author Robert Heinlein once said; “Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.” Well, he could have been writing about your own energies this month Leo since this month, so associated and draped in all things love, will openly show you how you can indeed maintain a strong sense of self and identity while also maintaining the ability to go for and get whatever it is you want in life. Especially love. But you’ll also find that you can’t get to any of those aforementioned places all by your lonesome. Look, as uncomfortable as it might be to open yourself up and be vulnerable to the vagaries of life, sometimes it’s a necessary evil in order to get to all the creamy goodness that waits on the other side. And sometimes, just sometimes, you have to admit and apologize for the past before you can move into a fabulous future. This is THAT month. The planets portend that it will be incumbent upon you in February to forgive that same past (and that person you’ve been ignoring and /or pissed at for so long now) in order to be able to glide like the angel you are into your heavenly experiences that await. But, first, you’ll have to deal with some sucky energies on the 5th when expansive and optimistic Jupiter hits an irritating, annoying and uneasy wall against stinkmeister Saturn. See, with Jupiter currently taking up real estate in your 8th House of Other People’s Money you are eager to expand your own strategies while making some cool and quick cash from shared resources. Or, the positive impact might even fall from an opportunity offered by a generous and influential partner. These early in the month energies, especially those on the 6th, can actually indicate big and eventual success as long you remember there is no ‘I’ in T E A M. Look, Leo, we all know that you love the spotlight. Not so much sharing it though. However, and listen well here, if you want to find some spectacular success in the immediate, you will only be able to do that with other people involved. I can say this as well, the success that you could soon be mired in will be all the bigger and all the more sweet if you not only join forces with like minds but also get all invested in bringing benefit and blessings to all. “For the highest good of all mankind” should be your new brand model as well as your constant and consistent motto in February. Just don’t get too cocky, especially around the 10th, 11th and 12th when it seems like everything you try goes awry. This too shall pass my friend so don’t put too much time or energy into trying to think of alternative routes or different ways of doing things. Don’t give up though either since Venus and Mercury join forces during this fierce time to bring you just the perfect words that will let you confidently fake it ‘till you make it. Believe me, your attempts at impact and successful communication will increase even through the inventive Aquarius New Moon on the 13th. And even though you might be crystal clear in your needs and wants, the mixed messages that you seem to be getting from everyone around you, particularly when Pluto sextiles Venus on the 15th, frustrate and annoy. Just keep on keepin’ on. YOU are exactly where you need to be and are doing exactly what you need to do in order to make the most of all the super duper energies heading your way. Think Gwen Stefani as the 17th sinks in and have NO DOUBT! The Full Moon that falls on the 28th sheds a shining light on how bright your life really is. Don’t sweat the small stuff as you focus on your ever expanding finances. Keep an eye on the big picture as you go about reframing and healing your past. Prepare for launch Leo and the next spotlight you see shining down right on you will be from the fifth star to the left. 3, 2, 1….lift-off!
Your Shui:
You have a dual agenda this merry month of February; the first is to maintain a solid sense of self no matter what’s going on around you. Have no doubt that you are always exactly where you are supposed to be doing exactly what you are supposed to be doing. But, while maintaining your strong sense of confidence and esteem you also must admit that you didn’t get where you are all alone and that you also can’t get wherever you’re headed in that same solitary state. It really does take a village Leo, even if you’re the one voted to be the Chief. Your energies in February predict and predicate success soon coming your way, so, for that reason, I am going to advise that you download an image of something called ‘The Banner of Victory’ and hang that somewhere in the ‘Fame’ area of your main floor. This ‘Banner of Victory’ symbolizes that very thing, success, in all of your endeavors. Sometimes it is depicted as a long flag similar to those employed by ancient Eastern armies as it was believed to bring an elevation in rank, on every conceivable level. If you read my daily blog posts on my website you know that I often talk about one of my most revered teachers Hilda Charlton. Hilda used to teach that whenever we were facing any issues, events or agendas that made us either nervous or even frightened, we should visualize holding a white flag and then flicking it out in front of us before riding into battle. This is what Joan d’ Arc did whenever she faced the enemy. She carried a long white banner that signified victory and success and just before she entered the battlefield she would unfurl it and ride with it waving success in the wind. See a thread of theme here? Place the ‘Banner of Victory’ in Fame and forgive all those whose bodies you’ve left on the battlefield of the ego. Then this truly will be a month that you’ll remember until end of days.
