Guest guest Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 Dear Friends, As always, this little amusment is best read according to one's ascendant and/or Moon. The Sun sign takes the bronze. regards, Chris February 2006 Vedic Horoscope General Venus turns direct once again on February 3rd in the nakshatra of Purvashada. This may curtail any self-indulgent tendencies that might have marred efforts in recent weeks. So schmoozing the boss just got a little easier. More generally, our collective intention for socializing and interaction with friends may have a clearer path of expression this month. Jupiter and Neptune move in unison for several weeks now as the great benefic slows down ahead of its station. Unfortunately, they form a square aspect for much of the month so beware of distortions in hopes or higher ideals. For example, this would not be a good time to take an oath that required an unequivocal adoption of clear legal principles. Liquids of all kinds may also be subject to exaggeration or unnatural growth or distribution. We can only hope this doesn't apply to gasoline prices. Saturn continues to be trined by Rahu(North Node) creating difficulties for persons or groups based on traditional ideas or social structures. Muslim and Christian fundamentalists please take note. Problems with mining will continue to be in the news since Saturn rules things underground. One interesting feature of the January 29th New Moon in Capricorn is that it opposed Saturn within two degrees, and closely conjoined Mercury. This points to a disruption of information, or perhaps a pernicious application of malefic energy to distort information. Not that there isn't already enough of that going on these days, but it may play a larger role in all of our lives this month. I note that since the Winter Olympics are set for Italy this month, we may have more than our fair share of scandal and intrigue. The New Moon of February 27th in Aquarius, by contrast, removes the Saturn influence and replaces it with Uranus -- the planet of shock and change. Given that Mars is squaring this New Moon while receiving Ketu's destabilizing aspect, there may be a strong desire for changing the status quo in many facets of life through March. ARIES (Apr 13 - May 13) Mars finally moves out of Aries on the 5th so there may be a welcome lessening of intensity in your life. The Taurean influence will likely push you more towards stopping and smelling the flowers. And as Mars transits Krittika for most of February, expect to draw a crowd wherever you go. You will be blessed with more vision and leadership abilities now, so your words will carry considerable influence. On the 19th, be careful of conflict with superiors. TAURUS (May 14 - Jun 14) After Venus stations on the 3rd and begins to move forward, you may find your life moves according to plan a little more. Those mysteries that have been befuddling you may finally yield their fruits. Be attentive to a subtle shift around the 18th when Venus enters Uttarashada. Before the 18th, you may be focused on self improvement even at the expense of ruffling feathers. After the 18th, you may be more retiring in the face of opposition and prefer to sit back and reflect more about your situation. A spirit of reconciliation may find its way into your heart. Expect some good news at work around the 23rd. GEMINI (Jun 15 - Jul 15) For most of the month, you may focus on matters of ethics or higher philosophy as Mercury transits your 9th house. Expect to encounter some unusual and intelligent thinkers that will change your thinking about ways to improve yourself. This atmosphere of education and learning is mostly likely to occur between the 8th and 17th as Mercury transits Satabisha. After Mercury enters Purvabhadra on the 18th, there may be a turn towards more mundane matters like money. In the course of this transit, be aware of speaking too frankly, especially with superiors. The period from the 20th and the 23rd looks promising for friendship and socializing. CANCER (Jul 16 - Aug 15) With Ketu still transiting Hasta, your life with continue to have an edge to it. This will likely keep you a little off balance and may make relaxing difficult. Some problems concerning partners may occupy your thoughts in the first half of the month as the Sun transits the 7th house in the presence of dissolute Neptune. There may be an unusual air about you this month that can impede progress when dealing with others. Your self-projection batteries may be a little run down just now, so try to find time to recharge them. You may receive good news from unexpected or a distant source around the 19th. LEO (Aug 16 - Sep 15) With fiery Mars transiting Krittika for most of this month, you will feel extra energetic. Perhaps the best outlet for this new found energy is your career. This is a great time to expand your network of contacts or research new positions that interest you. Expect to make some highly original or innovative new friends that might assist you on your path. A shift in emphasis may occur after the 19th when the Sun enters Satabisha. The previous gregariousness and need to announce yourself to the world may be replaced by a quieter tone of interaction. Look for a strange encounter to bring a helpful female into your life around the 28th. .. VIRGO (Sep 16 - Oct 16) With Mercury transiting your 6th house for most of this month, the desire to perform service and help others will resonate strongly within you. Legal and medical concerns generally go well now, even if much of the work is done quietly without fanfare or is not fully understood. In the course of your daily efforts, you may meet up with someone who changes your perspective on a fundamental human quality. Be ready with an open mind. After Mercury enters Purvabhadra on the 18th, a shift in tone may occur that pushes you towards thinking of yourself more. Try to resist the temptation towards self-indulgence at the end of the month. LIBRA (Oct 17 - Nov 15) Venus turns direct on the 3rd, so there may be a smoother application of effort towards your goals after that date. This is a good thing too, because the influence of Venus in Purvashada will compel you to pursue your immediate interests forcefully. Be careful not to enter into battles over principles, especially with partners. After Venus enters Uttarashasa on the 19th, there will probably be a modulation in tone to your life as you are more comfortable letting others come to you rather than going after them. This time will also herald a period of good relations with siblings. Watch for good news to come your way around the 23rd. SCORPIO (Nov 16 - Dec 14) As Mars transits Krittika for much of February, expect your powers of perception to be at their most acute. At times, this may be a little too much for some people around you, especially since Mars is currently in Taurus, the sign of the bull. Certainly, if you can direct your energy into new projects then that is one way to avoid coming on too strong. Workplace efforts are highlighted now as you have what it takes to be persuasive and market your ideas to the right people. Around the 20th, there may be some tense moments involving a boss or person of authority. And since Mars is transiting your 7th house, relationship matters will also be front and centre. Near the 24th, things may get a bit murky so be sure to ask for proof. SAGITTARIUS (Dec 15 - Jan 13) Your good fortune will likely continue for another month at least since Jupiter sits happily in your 11th house of gains. It's starting to slow down as it approaches the station in early March, but that if anything will make it stronger. Venus turning direct in your first house after the 3rd is also part of this lucky picture for you. As February progresses, things will remain favourable (of course!) as Venus moves into Uttarashada after the 19th. Expect more gains at work and new insights into affairs that can make an important difference in your life around this time. Relations with siblings go well in the second half of the month generally, as new, unusual ways of thinking create hitherto unforseen opportunities. CAPRICORN (Jan 14 - Feb 12) Both the Sun and Mercury transit your birth sign in the first half of this month making you more noticeable than usual. Career matters improve after the 3rd as Venus, your lord of the 10th house of status, turns direct. And with your 10th house Jupiter slowing down towards its station in early March, you can look forward to helpful developments in the workplace. The really significant improvements probably won't occur until the last week of the month when Venus enters Capricorn. As before, however, none of this will feel especially gratifying just yet as your life will be subject to periodic sudden changes and minor bumps in the road. As long as Rahu remains in close aspect to Saturn until the end of March, you will forgo the risk of complacency. AQUARIUS (Feb 13 - March 13) February may start a little slowly for you, but picks up sharply by mid-month. You make new friends and extend your network as you encounter more people you have something in common with. As a result of these contacts, you may be inclined to delve more deeply into subjects of interest such as alternative health and the occult. Near Valentine's Day, you may learn something new that strengthens your belief system. Your moment in the sun will come near the 28th, as acquaintances and neighbours cast an admiring gaze. PISCES (March 14 - Apr 12) As your ruling planet Jupiter slows down ahead of its station in March, expect to have more secrets of the universe revealed to you. Some of these may involve notions of justice or art and beauty. Help from on high (or out of nowhere) may assist your workplace efforts after Venus has turned direct on the 3rd and completes its transit of Purvashada. A good date to circle would be the 6th as Sun conjoins Neptune in your 11th house of gains. While the gains may not be tangible, the recognition will be. Throughout this month, there will be the risk of thinking too big, or making plans that never go anywhere. The challenge will be to cut a fine line between efforts that nourish your need to know truth and efforts that are serving no clear purpose. Admittedly this is hard to do, but when in doubt, trust your senses. http://modernVedic Astrology.com http://modernVedic Astrology.blogspot.com Autos. Looking for a sweet ride?
