Astrology for Friday, 28 February 2020:

​Today is a busy day in the skies. The Moon ingresses into Taurus—the sign of its exaltation, but without reception from Venus in Aries. The Moon in Taurus shifts our attention down into the felt experience of the body, our sensuous selves, that which nourishes us and connects us to pleasure. It may not feel immediately clear how to access the resources needed to shift our attention in these ways. It may take more patience and careful feeling—in many ways, strategies that are opposite from those of Venus in Aries. The Moon then makes a conjunction to Uranus and a sextile to Mercury moving retrograde in Pisces. Disruptive Uranus may unsettle our habitual ways of connecting to our bodies and emotions, daring us to feel something new or in a new way. This could leave us feeling unsteady or disoriented. The sextile to Mercury reminds us that there is information that has not yet been revealed, and we may not yet see how this story will unfold. What would it be like to become more present for yourself in this moment as well as attentive to the lessons of your past selves, without knowing what the outcome of this learning will be? Venus then makes a square to Pluto in Capricorn, likely activating power struggles in our relationships—particularly between what we want right now and what we desire in the long-term. The Moon makes a trine to Mars in Capricorn then a sextile to the Sun in Pisces, reminding us to proceed with steady, deliberate action and to move with that which is life affirming. Even if you don’t know where you are going, you know how to get there as long as you continue to connect to that which allows you to shine more brightly. Finally, Mercury makes a sextile to Uranus, signaling unexpected messages or the arrival of information that has the potential to unsettle and shake things up, potentially situations that you thought were over and complete. Don’t be surprised if a process that seemed to be finished breaks open again in ways that could not have been anticipated.
