Planetary Transits for February 14 – February 20

 

Note: We are in the two-week period between the Annular Solar Eclipse (Feb.

7) and the Total Lunar Eclipse (Feb. 21). Delay major changes and exercise

a lot of care and patience during this time.

 

Sun transits Aquarius from 00:56 to 08:00°. Sun is weak until Feb. 18 and

closely conjunct Rahu until Feb. 21.

 

Moon is waxing and transits Taurus, Gemini, Cancer and into Leo. The full

Moon is in Leo on Feb. 20. The Total Lunar Eclipse is on Feb 21, and is

visible throughout most of the Americas as well as Western Europe. The

Total Eclipse begins at 03:01:10 UT. The Greatest Eclipse is at 03:26:05

UT. The Total Eclipse ends at 03:50:57 UT. (Subtract six hours for CT.)

 

Mars transits Gemini, from 01:19 to 02:41°. Mars is weak until Feb. 29 and

under the influence of Rahu until March 11. There can be problems relative

to fire, earth, property, explosions, (Explosion at Sugar Factory Kills Six,

Injures Dozens) police, military, executives, etc. Mars remains in Gemini

until April 28.

 

Mercury transits Capricorn from 15:49 to 14:35°. Mercury is retrograde

until Feb. 18.

 

Jupiter transits its mooltrikona sign, Sagittarius, from 18:40 to 20:01°,

outside the orb of influence of other planets. This is good for law,

religion, publishing, teaching, etc.

 

Venus transits Capricorn from 01:47 to 10:25°. Venus is weak until Feb. 16.

(Last week’s prediction: The Writer’s Guild of America strike should be

settled by Feb. 16.)

other planets. Saturn is retrograde until May 2.

 

Rahu and Ketu transit Aquarius and Leo, respectively, stationary at 03:45°.

Persons with rising signs in the 3-degree range, or with planets in odd

signs in the 3-degree range, such as Senator Barack Obama, need to be extra

careful and patient. Rahu and Ketu remain in the 3-degree range until March

26.
