Don't miss out on the planetary aspects at the end of the Report to fill in the blanks on most days.
Many aspects, especially those involving slower-moving planets, can influence several days, especially when approaching their exact date. Many will last for days beyond if the planets are moving very slowly.

  • For some people this week has been productive when presenting talents and products to the appropriate target audience but there is still a wait-and-see period hanging in the balance. For others it has been very difficult and filled with what I identify as Saturn and Neptune complaints. There are frustrations and we are faced with our weakest link. It is a time when your work is not working or your body is calling out for its special needs. Relationships are difficult to manage at best, and for many I hear the divorce word being used to try and curb another's behavior. As we experience the blocked and frustrating qualities of this year's Saturn and Neptune opposition we attempt to position ourselves in a better light. Shakespeare said: "The web of our life is a mingled yarn, good and ill together". This is the perfect script for the struggles set upon us at this time when Saturn, the planet that rules the structure in our lives is opposed by Neptune, a planet comfortable with wasting it away. It is a time when nothing seems to be working and we stretch our fabrics to maintain our foundations and hope our ship is not sinking. There are those on the receiving end of your efforts more content to simply walk away and leave you to pick up the pieces.
    This week all the cards will be on the table and Friday's Leo Full Moon brings a high energy week filled with a list of consequences - for good or ill. Consequences are under the rule of Saturn. Saturn is retrograde, in a sign causing its detriment and in the grip of a further weakening while in opposition to Neptune. Not until February 28th is the opposition exact but this week a contra parallel between Saturn and Neptune exposes this aspect early. We see it in the news with the US president. He proposes a troop increase and is met with severe opposition from both parties when he suffers the lowest approval rating of all presidents. Not so unlike those in charge in our homes, offices, etc. who are also met with extraordinary obstacles. Not even Hollywood stars are getting off the hook for messing up. Every blunder and unfortunate action is broadcast by the media who seems to be running our lives. By the time the Full Moon rises at the end of the week our work will be clearly cut out. The last time this pair formed an opposition was in 1971-72. Richard Nixon was about to suffer Watergate.
    Then in 2001 Saturn and Neptune formed a contra parallel aspect like the one we'll have on Thursday. Looking back - it was G.W. Bush's first few months a president. His actions then may be further revealed now, as to what his actual agenda was for his America.
    Mercury is the messenger of the Gods, tells a story at the important astrological points along his travels. It is time to prepare for his February 13th retrograde period. By listening closely to what we see, hear and say when Mercury enters Pisces this Friday, February 2nd, we may gain some insights to the message from this messenger.
    February 2nd is the day of the Full Moon in Leo. Leo rules matters of the heart and of kings. Decisions to implement changes are churning behind closed doors all around the world. Mercury crosses a sensitive point on January 29th. It is the point where it will finally turn direct after its retrograde trek on February 13, 2007. It is not until March 7th when Mercury turns direct. There is a re-emphasis of the divorcing influence with the up-and-coming Mercury positions. With all this threatening the stability of our partnerships there remains the Jupiter and Uranus square (90°) that presents the drive to reinvent ourselves. Try as you may to keep things the same, the need is stronger to break out of old molds. What will you do?
    This week is shy on Good Days. You are better to keep your nose to the grindstone with no new activity. Gather facts and watch what others do. Use the deadline energy of the Full Moon to finish something up that has been lingering. The pressure is on to employ for a specific task. This is probably Bush moving forward with his troop increase. The February 2nd Moon-Saturn occultation on the same day indicates a heavy cost to be paid by February 10th. Avoid manipulation as it comes back to haunt you.

    Take a break from the chaos and visit
    Peace Village.

  • Moon Signs & Daily Summaries
    Please read my
    article on Refranations as they are an important astrological event marker.

    New Weekly Feature
    For ease of reading the details of each day, when available or appropriate, follow the daily summary.


    A Day Rating is not intended to describe the feeling of the day or how you will experience that day but offers clues about the end results to your activities if you chose to take a specific action during that Moon sign period.

    A Moon sign period begins when the Moon enters a new sign and remains in effect until it leaves that sign. A Difficult Day can bring unwanted complications for the end result of your objectives. By choosing a Good Day and before the void of course Moon period, you increase you chances for a smoother and more favorable outcome. The day is rated by the last aspect from the Moon to a planet before it leaves the sign. That last aspect begins the void of course Moon period. Your activities are considered to be under the umbrella of the Moon sign that changes every couple of days. Days with the same Moon sign often carry the same day rating for the couple days the Moon occupies that sign.

    There some very important exceptions:
  • When a planet changes signs, the day rating can change.
  • When a planet changes direction, the day rating can change.

  •  
    These instances are referred to as a refranation, indicating that you are to expect someone to leave before you complete your objectives or the situation totally changes due to new and unseen developments or reversals.

    General Notes On Cancer MoonsCancer
    - Tough Opponent in Sheep's Clothing. The observed void of course Moon period begins at 4:13 p.m.; however I will ignore that for the difficult aspect between Moon and Pluto tomorrow night.
    If you become involved in a uniquely charming situation, know that there is a twist that seduces you into what turns out to be a thick and heavy weight. When someone applauds you to give more you will have to accept them as your boss. They could lay down the rules where you live. Don't sign up for anything today or tomorrow, unless you want to get into bed with a wolf!

Exquisite dance and design principals are easily expressed. Venus in Pisces may be more focused on sympathy and holds an empathic compassionate response. On the financial side of Venus she may posses a liquid quality when handling money; spending is greater especially on cosmetic items.

Our thinking process becomes less direct and lends weight to symbolic impressions and imagination. The facts could be distorted or open to interpretation. Gossip runs high with Mercury in Pisces. Many errands are run in private as talks behind closed doors involve scheming. This is a good time for writing in quiet spaces and finding your inner voice. Trips over water, even the local bridge may become a topic. Quotes from clergy or private counsel are used to make an attempt to answer questions. Activities involving machines, equipment and counting devices, such as voting machines can be topics. Announcements to be made clarifying private actions that may come out into the open.
