Poems & Ideas to Dance the Year
VENUS STIRRING
All that lies within
Cries in supplication to love’s mystery
Recalibrating heart’s injury
Releasing hope’s chagrin
Of mortal coils we’ve spun.
Pinioned in old damage done
Of giving and receiving
Repeated numbly from time begun.
Ancient chains link each day
Holding passioned life at bay
From boundaries lost in torn repair
Done without Venus care.
Rise now with appetite
To reclaim love’s sheer delight!
COSMIC ENERGIES~WILL YOU BE MINE?

Wisdom Body notes feb. 13-28 by Samantha Cameron
February may be a month of only 28 days, but it overflows with weird news/odd challenges and transformative change! Stand still, open the heart, feel your abundance of warrior courage ~ We shall prevail from insightful love…..abundantly shared on the 14th. February of ’26 is a game changer for the world, and each of us personally. Be glad that a celebration of love is what February is known for, as that is precisely what is needed to see us through this month- this year! Take a moment to bear witness~ to stand in commitment to your intuitive wisdom and grow with greater awareness of who you are, and are becoming. Honor daily moments of standing in witness, a profound practice of not looking away, of committing to being present, with compassion ~ First for Self then for another.
“The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes.” Marcel Proust
Astrology helps us to stand back and calibrate life objectively, with new eyes, to understand timing and transcendental truths rooted in daily life. I have found it supportive when dealing with confusion and unknown direction. I am more easily in witness mode when I can be objective as it offers growing awareness of who I am and who I am becoming, and therefore what I can do. It supports committing to the right cause at the right time through small daily, sometimes hourly, practices, of not looking away, of deepening into Soul Self.
Planetary Timing and sequencing: Skip this if the Astro Info is confusing. All will be distilled and revealed in following paragraph. Astrologically, February opened with Uranus turning Direct. (See previous Blog from 2/1-“The Wow of Now”.) As the great Promethean Mind of electric thinking and brilliant ideas moved forward in greater discovery. Many issues turned upside down, and chaos ensued. Did you notice? Now, we turn toward Eclipse Season of letting go and clearing old closets, with the first Eclipse arriving at the New Moon, of 29 degrees of Aquarius, on the 17th. Next is the historic Saturn journey in Pisces coming to an end, to join Neptune at 00 Aires on Feb. 20th. These two opposite energies only meet here once, then not again until 2061….An oh so rare and important moment influencing the year ahead! This is followed the first of three Mercury Rx working with water’s emotional confusion. Mercury stations on the 26th. Prepare now for any important work or intentions.
Guidance and illumination of these ‘hot spot energies: ‘The hottest, or most significant of these cosmic moments is the embrace of Saturn and Neptune, who only meet up every 36-37 years. Their sizzling dance has even greater significance than usual as it takes place at the zero point of Aires, where life begins. This is a world point at the entry to the zodiac, demanding brave, and bold moves from the shock waves shimmering our systems. It is a huge reset button as it is a starting point for the world. If you know your chart, look to see where 00 Aires lies for that will be the area of your life that leaps up to begin again. Aires is ruled by the warrior Mars who dislikes taking prisoners. He rules with speed and determinization, activating motivation, passion and intention. Where and what are your challenges? What vision do you seek to open and pursue? Where might you grow more creative by weaving unusual talents?
As in all big Cosmic events, those with planets closest to the ‘event degree’ will feel it most strongly. Those with Pisces birthdays circling the 20th of Feb. will be most affected as the Sun, their ego and ID will be infused in the reset dance of this planetary mash up. Also, those with planets, especially their Sun, near 00-3 Aires will be pushed and influenced. Pay greater attention to dreams, intuitive voices, and synchronicity as the oppositional forces of Saturn’s construct and strong boundaries tries to marry Neptune’s spiritual center of confusion and creativity. Take time to think things through, to integrate everything from a different POV. Invite your wild brain to sit with unusual possibilities and approaches.
As this is the most important planetary event of ’26, we need to see it as a larger, transcendental concept. It needs to create ways within to find new expression without. It is an opportunity to be courageously inspired, not repressed by the demand to take new approaches. A great example of these energies took place the last time they came together. Their meeting was in Capricorn, the sign Saturn rules, and revealed a literal collapse of Saturnian construct, dissolved in Neptune’s greater spirit of joining the world as one. The Berlin Wall fell!
On the 17 we have the New Moon, and what is usually a quiet, inner time will be oh so electric and pushy. The year’s first Eclipse happens at the extreme 29 degrees of Aquarius. To be followed by its partner in crime on March 3rd. As you know, Eclipses can be dramatic wild cards, using sudden release and clear-outs that surprise. This is so we pay greater attention to areas in our life needing change. They can shake off complacency, enticing us to a higher plane. This Eclipse has mixed energies that will affect not only our perception, but technology, banking, and greater possibility of scams. Remain vigilant! Blessings of change, higher mind, and inspiration be yours. May our spirits reach out in Valentine heart-happiness to embrace one another.
