And now, a few bits from ECLIPSE:
24 February Pallas opposes h.Zeus and the Earth quincunxes Uranus. The tone may be one of fighting what we really want, insisting that the material encourages all the ‘wrong’ things in us, and persisting with the notion that smart money will be anywhere but invested in those things we want. Where did we get this nonsense? This may be a result of the soon-to-be conjunct Mercury retro-Mars meet-up in Pisces; the two of them get together in the sign of the Collective and convince us that the only possible acceptable response to things is to deny the individual Will in favor of some Cosmic ‘what the Collective needs’, and with our mental faculties tied up in knots, we may accept these notions as correct ones. Instead what we might do is consider how truly wise our ambitions really are, and whether they are attainable in this world by ourselves as the individuals we are. May bring forward a startling ‘discovery’ or two, and gives us a fresh lay of the land for the Merc retro period.
25 February Venus enters Pisces later in the day (somewhere between 6 and 7 PM Pacific time), but until she does, she sits in 29 hellacious degrees of Aquarius, stressing the intellect with all the jealousy, envy, wish-listing, want, appetite, and insistence on having relationship (even if the other party doesn’t want to) that can make a goddess cry. Finances, too, take a beating, as Venus is oh-so-likely to believe she can buy her way out of anything (or toward happiness). Ignore the tantrum-throwing child inside you, leaving all Venusian matters to which we might want to make changes as they are, for now.
Full Moon occurs on the 25th at 12:25 PM PST at 7 Virgo 23
Though we see old wounds clearly (Sun moving to conjunct Chiron) we are done with these; accounts are closed, criticism put to bed. Now reflected, positive light (the loving support and feedback of others) encourages development of and use of new talents and skills. These will change the view of one’s own individuality; what we saw as uniquely ‘us’ will have to change, as will our relationship to the social circle. Though Full Moons represent endings (to the old hurts we spoke of earlier), this one will also represent a beginning, as the shift in abilities exhibited, change to the Self-image, and the adjustments to interaction with (and probably status within) the group mark the start of a ‘new’ Self, possibly with a new role.

Holy Cow! Do you have 12 hours and a comfy sofa???!!! My Goodness, Julie, how DO you do this?? Yesterday I woke up and was fine for a couple of hours, then I started to panic, flat-out, unabashed panic. I managed to meditate (kind of) my way out, but couldn’t breathe right for hours. I felt like a big, round, moving ball of change was hurtling toward me and I was SO confused because I have just been through a lot of change. And finances taking a hit? They were decimated yesterday, though I am on a strict budget.
You have taught me well and I just tried to be open to feeling everything and knowing, no TRUSTING, it was all going to end well, and by 3 or 4pm I was okay. Something is still coming and I do not know what it is. I also thought perhaps I was absorbing someone else’s energy and their possible angst, adding fuel to my fire!
What a day!!!! Today’s posts are validating and I thank you from the bottom of my heart (and mind) for showing me I am not crazy!
Love,
Me
Hello, R! You are very welcome. I’m so sorry to hear you’ve been having a rough time, but from your description, it strikes me as extreme sensitivity to the Merc turnaround. He’s in Watery Pisces, so none of us feel like we can breathe–and is now moving back toward Mars, and Mars toward him–no wonder you feel the Universe is aggressive right now! I want to thank you for bringing this up publicly–you sharing may help a lot of people who are feeling the same ‘breathlessness’ and not knowing what to do. You’ve done the right thing, remaining calm and reminding yourself to remain conscious and trust–there’s no better advice in this world!
Thank you, R!
Love and hugs,
jd

True to my left-handed nature, I read your e-mails backwards. Having just read the Daily Forecast for today, I am further validated! Phew! I AM just taking a passive route, starting yesterday, and I am comforted to know it is the right thing to do. SO glad to always have you on my shoulder! Oy vey!
Hi R, I tend to read backward, too, though usually not books (but non-fiction gets the treatment sometimes)–makes magazines interesting 🙂
Glad you are feeling better.
Your shoulder-sittin’ friend,
jd

Thank you, R, I will–right after I move all the living room furniture (I’ve got the bug) Happy Sunday!
