Overview February 2008

february 2008 overview



February is shaping up to be an eventful month. A pair of eclipses are on the main features, along with the first tremors of Pluto’s move into Capricorn. There’s also a crowd gathered in the Aquarian part of the sky. It won’t be a frivolous month, that’s for sure, especially for Aquarians, Leos, and some Virgos and Pisceans.

Eclipses mark times of significant change. Some astrologers say “crisis.” Some say “awakenings” while others say “beginnings and endings.” Some astrologers refer to eclipses as the messengers that drop vital missing pieces of The Puzzle, whatever The Puzzle is at the moment.

I suspect they’re all correct, in their way. But sometimes eclipses bring…well, nada. We read the dramatic forecasts, sit around waiting, holding our breath and thinking “Oh good, crisis! At least it’s better than this goddamned stalemate I’ve been living in for months, years even!” and then….
Nothing.

Did we miss something?

Oh, I can point to significant events that took place on eclipse hotspots. I’ve been amazed with tales of offers that came out of the blue, sudden and totally unexpected job changes, and love life twists that would make daytime television writers blush.

But nothing ever seems to really get solved, does it? You find a few missing pieces, and then discover that The Puzzle is now twice as large and twice as complex as when you started. It’s horrifying, especially at first glance.

Is the (New and Improved! More Complicated for Your Solving Pleasure!) Puzzle more interesting? Or just more likely to trigger heavy drinking and binge consumption of anime porn?

You tell me.


There’s a pair of eclipses this month. The first, an annular solar eclipse on February 6, falls at 16 degrees of Aquarius; all mid-born Aquarians and Leos take note. The second, a total lunar eclipse, takes places February 20 at 1 degree of Pisces (Sun) and 1 degree of Virgo (Moon.)

The order will be solar eclipse first (at New Moon) and Lunar Eclipse second (at the culminating Full Moon ) This is a departure from the pattern of the previous two years; the pattern was Lunar Eclipse at Full Moon first, then Solar Eclipse at the next New Moon second.
There's been some weird energy—backwards, almost, and slightly unrelated.

Beginning with this cycle, we’ll have our beginnings (New Moon) linked in proper sequence with our culminations (Full Moon.) Events should naturally follow, and the cause/effect sequence should be a little less haywire.

At least that’s the theory. If it falls through, there’s always cognac and hentai.
