This is not the best week to be a Curious George. After all, curiosity isn’t enough. You must make a more concerted effort to get to the facts. Getting the facts is not so easy. We all look at things from a different perspective and all information is subject to individual interpretation. However, some material facts remain. These are like little pieces of a jigsaw puzzle that take time to assimilate. That is why “time is the best story teller of all”.

The Sun in Pisces is opposed to the Moon in Virgo. It’s a full Moon. At Bellevue Hospital in New York City they have a saying when the Moon is Full; “Prepare more beds!” People are usually acting crazier when there is a Full Moon. There are 4 planets in the sign of Pisces; Sun, Venus, Jupiter and Uranus. This combination is sure to draw out the people who are sympathetic to your cause. It can be very lucky for anyone who is trying to uncover secrets of past memories & experiences. It gives you an insight at the precise moment that you need it and everything becomes vividly clear.

This is a good time to examine the details of personal projects. Try to organize everything in a way that will make the best argument for what you are trying to accomplish. You might want to hit the problem head on but you can also wait for it to come to you. Remember that “spontaneity is well prepared.” This is a chance for you to shine…go for it.

Four planets; the Sun, Jupiter, Venus & Uranus are passing through the sign of Pisces. This configuration should help take the edge off some of the events of the week. Pisces is a water sign and is the most compassionate sign of the Zodiac. However, Pisces does have an agenda which should be brought to your attention. They have a hidden agenda. The good thing about it is that it usually benefits everyone. Still beware of the mastermind tendencies that emerge from beneath the surface.

Mars is retrograde in Leo and this has reversed the course of some activities, at least temporarily. You’ll get back on track when Mars goes direct in the middle of March. Meanwhile enjoy the robust energy of this planet in the sign of Leo. Leos love to play games and they are very good at it. They are like the cat who keeps batting the mouse around with it’s paw. They are just playing although it may not feel like it.

Saturn square Pluto is the heavy and lengthy aspect that keeps the pressure on. This keeps you reviewing your progress and forces necessary changes to your personality and projects. Try not to resist this influence and it will produce a lot of results. It may feel unpleasant and depressing but if you work with it you will benefit.

The Moon in Taurus would like you to have some creature comforts so do something relaxing.

It’s time for a group think. So far nothing is working. The question is how to get everyone rowing the boat in the same direction. It looks like the problem is poor intelligence but actually it may be the mind creating illusions and delusions. Either way, a new approach to the problem must be achieved. Powerful forces are opposing a solution so it will take courage to do the unpopular thing.

No peaceful approach is welcomed and the typical response is to create war. Military wars, price wars, psychological wars are all designed to maintain the status quo. It may look like there will be a breakthrough but this is an illusion. As King Solomon said, “there is nothing new under the Sun”. War is a tactic that dissolves human dignity and cannot be justified.

The human race isn’t showing too much evolution. The same problems emerge over and over. The same responses are repeated over and over. As Mohandas Gandhi said, “Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.” Gandhi always practiced nonviolence.
Perhaps the only way to help others is to set a good example. He who preaches, preaches to himself.

This week ends with far more progress than expected.

This week promises to be full of surprises. This is in part because of the 3 planets in Aquarius. This may not be the best time to play politics. It could be all over before you know you have been playing. The Sun, Venus & Neptune in Aquarius assure that there is a curve ball in there somewhere. Also, the Moon is in Sagittarius doesn’t give good instincts and it is trine to Mars in Leo. You may feel like you are on target but miss by a mile.

The exact square between Saturn in Libra and Pluto in Capricorn exposes an explosive situation that may be under way. Examine the situation carefully and proceed with caution. Expect more dissatisfaction from the general population. The far left and far right are stirring things up. Eventually, however, moderation and sanity will prevail.

Jupiter in Pisces is sextile to Pluto in Capricorn. This could open up an unexpected opportunity when you are not particularly interested in making any changes. This could be a missed opportunity. Stay flexible and always be open to changes that would allow you to expand your current skill set. Change is unnerving to most people initially, but usually develops your potential.

Hold on to your hat…the blasting is only about to begin. Make sure you don’t blow holes in your own psychology.

Your energy level has been very high and will continue through the coming weeks. You feel physically fit and ready to take on some new projects. This is all thanks to Mars in the fiery sign of Leo. The Moon is just entering Virgo so a lot of this energy this week will go towards mercurial pursuits such as the intellectual activity of problem solving. This will come easily without the usual reservations.

Mercury in Capricorn is very dangerous. It is so focused on moving up in the world that it tramples on everything around just to achieve a goal. Mercury in Capricorn is very dry and because Mercury itself is dry it just reinforces this lack of compassion for those who are less fortunate. Try to put your feet into the shoes of others.

Jupiter is sextile Pluto so any luck that you have may be attributed to this loving aspect the “sextile”. Pluto tends to dig feverishly to get to the bottom of any mystery. This relentless digging can be constructive or destructive. If you are going to dig, don’t dig half way.

The Sun is in Aquarius conjunct Venus so your social life should be relaxing and fun. Aquarius always promotes goodwill toward others. They are interested in any kind of group activity although they are interested in the whole rather than the part. It’s the camaraderie that they seek. They aren’t particularly interested in the individuals. This type of interest and probing is characteristic of the water signs. Aquarius is an air sign represented by the water carrier. They bring the right people together at the right time.

Jupiter has just entered the sign of Pisces which indicates that more world turmoil is emerging. This week, although not as explosive as last week, will drive opposing powers toward the center. Suddenly, the inability to “go it alone” has become apparent. These coalescing influences will continue to be unstable and unproductive for the near future but will eventually give way to a constructive conclusion.

Still major insecurities remain a part of our daily life. This is difficult to moderate and is the source of undue stress. Stress can takes it’s toll physically if not kept in check.
Individually we must find a way to cope. A belief in higher influences or a commitment to concentration can minimize these feelings of fear and insecurity. Learn from nature. Nature provides many of the answers to life’s little problems.

Mars still in the sign of Leo provides optimism and energy to continue projects that require a great deal of energy. Say “no” to unrealistic expectations coming from yourself or others. A kind of heaviness prevails in the general atmosphere, so you must lighten up. This will help you and the others around you.

Pessimism can easily be reinforced by those who you surround yourself with. Choose carefully the friends that you take into your confidence. Be honest with yourself and you will receive support from those who truly like you.

Most of the planets are in Air signs and Earth signs at the moment. This should ground some of your wild ideas and introduce some practicality into their implementation. Mars is in the Fire sign of Leo and this should continue to give you the needed energy and enthusiasm to see things through to their end. The Air signs; Libra, Aquarius and Gemini are theoretical. Air signs like to communicate and learn languages easily. The Earth signs; Capricorn, Taurus & Virgo are practical and very much concerned with security.

This week we have the Sun, Venus, Mercury & Pluto in Capricorn. This makes us very ambitious and directs us toward creating a place for ourselves in the world, preferably one with status. Capricorn is represented by the mountain goat. Therefore, a long journey begins with just one step. Step by step the goat climbs to the top of the mountain.

Also, this week, we have the Moon, Jupiter & Neptune in Aquarius. Aquarians are interested in mankind as a whole. They are not too attached to individuals although they possess a strong individuality themselves. They direct their efforts to the whole of society and do well in public service. Aquarians don’t feel comfortable in corporate settings and usually find themselves at odds with the hierarchy of the company.

All ideas require hard work and only succeed through sustained effort. If you think you have a good idea, pursue it.

This week finds us feeling a little icy. Four planets in Capricorn tend to eliminate any feelings of compassion that we might otherwise feel. It seems that we think that people get what they deserve…but really people get what they think they deserve, maybe? The Moon in Scorpio allows us to investigate the underworld of deep seated emotional entanglements. Why isn’t it easy to use free will? Free will requires that you become independent on every level. This is not an easy task. But start with just one situation and work your way into applying free will more successfully over time.

Someone once asked, “how much free will do we have?” The answer given was, “less than we think we do but more than we’ll ever use. To use free will, you have to have to change yourself. You are like a puzzle piece and those around you are the pieces with whom you are connected. It’s hard to change your shape. But if you do then the others will have to fit around you and they will have to change too. It isn’t so easy.

We have been conditioned psychologically as well as physically by our ancestors. Both their strengths and weaknesses are embodied in us. Little by little we can determine new and more successful approaches to problem solving. We don’t have to rely on what comes easy for us but are free to create a new solution. This is a good time to analyze those traits that might be holding us back from complete enjoyment and satisfaction in our lives.

Good fortune follows the courageous one.

Form is very important now. Some how the wrapper is what gets people interested. We have to determine if there is any substance but we must be attracted first. Venus, Sun and Mercury in Capricorn want substance. They like things with lasting value. These 3 planets combine to bring intelligence, power and beauty together in a durable package. Mature ideas are developed and bring forth applicable creations.

Mars in Leo is opposed to Neptune and Jupiter in Aquarius. Personal experience triumphs over the illusions of the masses. We must learn to rely on our own judgment. Only then can we take responsibility for the results of our own efforts. When we question ourselves all the time it indicates a lack of confidence and this is communicated in our interactions with others.

Neptune conjunct Jupiter in Aquarius shows the confusion that the general public in undergoing. There is the need to expand our options but at the same time a danger of overexpansion. Neptune occludes our ability to see clearly. Sometimes we just have to forge ahead even when things aren’t clear but we have to do it responsibly.

Pluto square Saturn threatens to give us an upper cut if we don’t pay careful attention to the passing of time. To postpone is just as dangerous as to accelerate. Timing is always at the basis of true success. Be at the right place at the right time. This is in your control.

Practical matters are in the forefront of your plans and actions. The Moon in Taurus wants comfort while the Sun in Capricorn is more concerned with the status derived from professional accomplishments. Mercury in Capricorn can be cold and cut through all the social niceties. Venus in Capricorn meshes this combination of planets in Capricorn and provides some decency to getting what you want. Lines are drawn in the sand.

Mars will spend a total of about 9 months in the sign of Leo. This will instill a sense of enthusiasm and ardor into the project. What is happening now is deeply important to your entire being. Mars is opposed by Jupiter and Neptune in Aquarius so take care that you don’t go off the deep end with some of your unfounded suspicions. You don’t want to seem unrealistic and/or unreasonable.

Saturn will be in Libra for the better part of the next 2½ years. This will give you a chance to dig into personal relationships and identify what has worked and what hasn’t worked. This is a golden opportunity to change your persona and attract many new things and people into your life. Although this is sometimes a painful catharsis, in the end it will be well worth it.
