Saturday, February 20, 2010. The Moon is in Taurus through Sunday morning which ends with a fine parallel to Mars before it leaves the sign. This allows for very positive results for the type of things you need assistance pushing your agenda, through a delicate gateway which requires diplomacy, grace and the art of persuasion. Part of the battle is to maintain your own cool and resist desperate language so as to gain the desired support. The object is to succeed without alienating your benefactor. If you do a project together you may go into something more in the future. For now try to revive an older plan or work on building a project previously designed. This is the time to revisit a man.

MOON ENTERING CANCER - Feb 23 2010
The Cancer Moon is a nesting time but not reclining.  There is a desire to retreat and protect one's vulnerable underbelly.  The baby side of people surfaces and emotions are highly visible if you are at all able to get close enough as very often people are "crabby". This is a time to nurture and find a way to nurture yourself. People stick to their clans and cliques being less likely to socialize with outsiders and seem to be comfortable with close family members. If you are appropriately placed you can obtain insider information.  Matters of saving and providing for necessities are concerns.  Food preparation and shared meals are more important.  Matters of cash as related to security, real estate and patriotism are Cancer matters.  Issues involving dependency or defensiveness are likely to arise with the Moon here.  What people need to survive also takes precedence.  Headlines are more dramatic than usual.  This is a great Moon for planting vegetables and the most fertile sign of the zodiac. The best time to plant fruits and vegetables and general planting. If you are a Cancer, matters tend to go your way.  Enjoy family dinners and nestle in with a loved one.

If you keep your plans to a one-time deal only you could succeed as there is a very nice parallel between the Sun and Jupiter all day.
