Numerology/Astrology for 2/18/17
2/18/17 is the number 3. The number 3 represents the War God Mars. There is a pounding of the drums and the rise and fall of mania in this moody number today. The positive is that you have to have more faith in yourself than in the rules of law. You have to know who to trust and who to not trust. There is a scattering of energy attempting to throw you off center through fear. It is going to take great effort and mental stability to find a balance that will allow you to move creatively and respond appropriately to the actions necessary to move forward. There will be those whose arrogance and conceit are attempting to pull the rug over your eyes and today will define whether you are a sheep or a wolf. You will either follow blindly or you will find your own path independently through the jungle of your life.
The Sun enters Pisces this morning, where it will transit until March 20th. With the Sun in Pisces, you want to be guided by altruistic feelings and a sense of universal correlations. You are less motivated to take action than you might be to feel what is unfolding. You cannot stop this change and so even in its intensity you have to have the attitude of “what will be, will be”. Pisces rules empathy, selfless love, devotion, and wisdom. On the shadow side, it exposes, illusion, delusion, bewilderment, hysteria, madness, dreaminess, falsehood, lies, and self-deception. Take a look at which side of that fence you are standing. The Moon is in Scorpio until 1:53 PM EST, after which it transits fiery, truth-seeking Sagittarius. The Last Quarter Moon occurs this afternoon when the Sun in early Pisces forms a square with the Moon in early Sagittarius. The Last Quarter Moon phase points to a crisis of consciousness which with these aspects is going to manifest in dramatic ways. Minds will want to sort out what works–and what doesn’t. Change is eminent no matter what. Even thought we are not yet to next week’s New Moon/Solar Eclipse (on February 26th), when something new is born once again, the breakdown begins today to manifest something completely new. Expect to be surprised and potentially shocked. Know that after this weekend you will not be able to say in any way that what you are experiencing is normal. Denial that has been hanging on like sticky sweet caramel is going to be washed away by the power of the huge emotional waves of water of Neptune in Pisces. It’s not the best time to start anything, as the decreasing light of the Moon symbolizes a descent into unconsciousness. Right now, this is a moment to hold on tight and ride out this wave. It is quickly going to become a washing machine of turmoil. It’s time to take your head out of the sand because you will have to deal with what is coming whether you like it or not.

Quote
Does the Hawk pierce the silence with its unique scream?
Does the Wolf howl at the moon?
Does nature warn us of impending catastrophe?
Does the Elephant hear the tsunami before your eyes see it curling at the shore?
The voices you hear are a warning.
The rumbling you feel is important to pay attention to.
You may not want to hear that warning but it is given none-the-less.
It is your personal choice to listen or not.
It is your lesson to make appropriate choices that support your survival…. Or not.
Only those that can heed the warnings survive in the game of evolution.
All of life is crying out to you.
Will you listen and follow its promptings?
Or will you drown in the sea of your denial?

Okay, this is the moment… the turning point astrologically. What that means is anyone’s best guess. But this day begins a 3 to 4 week unraveling of energies that will bring quick and rapid changes. It can create a lot of nervousness and upset… so get ready.
A lot of things are going to happen very quickly from this point going forward. What that looks like I am not completely sure.
This is a place of big epiphanies.
Ultimately all this upset is positive but sometimes changes come from catalystic ways. We are in the most sensitive of times as we are caught between the two eclipses.
The next eclipse is on February 26th there is a solar eclipse in Pisces.
Right now, the Sun is in Aquarius and Aquarius is a very fixed mental sign and so you might be noticing how set in your mind you happen to be. You want to be right and you believe what you believe regardless of if it is true or not.
But the Sun is going to move into Pisces right before that eclipse and that is going to make us feel much more sensitive to the energies unfolding. Expect a lot of emotions and a sense that some sort of completion needs to happen.
From February 18th things are going to get very tricky. This is the last time the Nodes are going to conjunct the Sun in the Pisces/Virgo aspect. Today is going to be a trigger day and you are going to be tested in ways that you do not yet understand. It brings up hidden issues and those are going to be critical for you to understand. It is going to show you your self-sabotaging ways, your hidden unresolved and unhealed issues, and your sub-conscious patterns of perception that are very toxic and are causing harm and damage to the world and others.
The Moon is going to square the Sun for days on end and that is always an unpleasant aspect. The Sun is entering a sign when the Moon is squaring it. It is the “Oh My Gosh” moment. Things are going to change fast. There is a huge tension and the Sun and Moon are not going to agree and the Moon is in Sagittarius. You need to prepare for total chaos and breakdown from February 17-26. Things are going to be ending in some way. Your perception is going to change. The Moon and Saturn are squaring. The question is what is the reality?
This is a dangerous aspect. And I am not kidding.
On the 19th the Moon and Saturn are still squaring. Then Mars begins to square to Pluto and this bring death, guns, and destruction. People can lose their mind and this aspect is about killing, ending things, and breakdown. It creates a lot of pressure and fear right in the forefront.
There will be people who are willing to do whatever it takes to end this chaos. February 21st is one of the worst days before the eclipse. The Sun and the South Node are conjunct. It is an extremely sensitive position. Then you’ve got Mars squaring Pluto making things ego oriented and the desire to force a change but it is an ego change. This creates radical out of nowhere, unpredictable reactions in the world.
Then Neptune (the planet of the deceiver and of being lost) is still in Pisces, and Venus is in Shadow getting ready to go retrograde. You may lose yourself in shadow. There is a huge explosive energy and you really need to be aware and to be very careful.
On the 21st, Mars is still squaring Pluto. Watch what you are putting an end to. Then we go into the dark moon cycle on the 23rd and 24th. You will see by the eclipse on the 26th, 6:58 am Pacific, we will hit the ultimate boiling point.
Be cautious of all your choices and actions. From the 21st to the 26th it is a constant point of turmoil with a lot of moments unlike anything you have ever felt or witnessed. We are coming to the end of the delusion and the end to feeling lost. Mars and Uranus are Conjuncting and Squaring Pluto. Then it opposes Jupiter which will inflame it even more.
Everything will be over reacting.
We are coming to the total breakdown of your perceptions that you have believed and your most cherished illusions are going to break down. Whether that is your personal world or a bigger world view, I don’t know. Just know that your impulses are highly over the top and emotionally motived rather than moving from clarity. By the 28th it should begin to calm down a bit. But the wrecking ball of this extreme week will be felt for a very long time.
You are going to have to face what you don’t want to face.
You are going to want to protect and defend untenable positions.
You will not be acting from a place of overview and clarity. You are going to have to face the parts of yourself that are very off and unclear. Your lesson is to find truth over illusion. You can fall into the extreme position of denial and illusion. You will realize that you have to become more clear. Most people are going to discover parts of themselves that you have not wanted to know. It will be a painful process but one that can be very revealing. You have to become highly informed. You have to stop blaming others and choosing disbelief as a way to avoid your own lies. You have to find balance by looking closely to all the pieces of the puzzle. You have to stop believing in the lies that allow you to continue to be in denial and compound your own suffering.
It is going to be difficult time. It is going to be a huge ending of the old reality. It is not about a quick fix. It is not about continuing to validate your old position but open to what you have been resisting vehemently. How you handle this time is going to be very telling.
Do your best to stay conscious in a very scary time. You will have to respond quickly but you need to do that with as much clarity as possible.
