Hello Friends
Welcome to the Aquarius New Moon newsletter which is produced monthly in time for each new moon.
The year is really just beginning. This co-incides with the Chinese New Year - 2010 The Year of the Tiger. Faster, lighter and freer than the heavy plodding ox of last year.

Aquarius Moon
People born with moon in Aquarius are often idealistic, intellectual more than emotional, imaginative and tuned into higher vibrations. They can be humanitarian and detached. They will quietly get on with some work that benefits the common good without taking the traumas too personally. They are often group-oriented and attracted to those who are on the 'road less travelled'.
Currently both Chiron and Neptune are transiting Aquarius. If any of your planets, including the moon is in Aquarius you will be feeling the winds of change.

HOW TO SURVIVE THE PLUTO/SATURN SQUARE
Pluto demolishes all before it as it clears the way for something new. Saturn helps stabilise and preserve the old. During the next couple of years these two giants are squaring up to each other. One forcing change, the other resisting. We can see this in the way the issue of climate change is being handled in the political and media arenas.
It is also very evident in the fierce economic tug-of war across the globe. No matter how much the old guard shore up the economy it seems Pluto is intent on flattening it in readiness for a new financial paradigm.
This is the archetypal energy that dominates as we enter the second decade of the 21st Century. People often ask: how is this going to effect me? We need to take three things (or 3000 things) into account before this question can be answered.
If you are living on a high vibration, in tune with the subtle energies of the universe and taking total responsibility for yourself then you will feel and respond to this transit at an energy level. The struggle will manifest within you and you will be aware of old ways collapsing in readiness for the new. Saturn is helping you to keep an even keel despite the tempestuous waters one is sailing in.
If all in your life is literal and you don’t spent too much time looking for the deeper meaning then you may get into bother with authority or something will happen to make you change your ways. The important thing is to look for the lesson for your soul if difficulties occur.
The Pluto-Saturn tug-of-war is real. This alignment is historically associated with war. Here we can see we have choice.
War is a choice. Peace is a choice. Which will we choose? Go with the same old, same old ways of dealing with dispute or step up to the plate and choose from a more enlightened position?
Donna Cunningham, a renowned astrologer, suggests the following guidelines to survive the Pluto/Saturn square:

• Take personal responsibility for any mess you've created. Don't blame the planets.            Dust off your B.S. detector and use it.
• Remember Pluto and Saturn are archetypes. We can use them to let go of stress. We can surrender and let go of all the old ways that are past their ‘use by’ date.

Love, Venus and St. Valentine's Day
St Valentine's Day is the day when lovers celebrate their love. But did you know this special day is said to have originated in ancient Greece?
The fertility festival of Gamelion was held to celebrate the union of Zeus (Jupiter) and Hera (Juno). In Roman times it was called the Festival of Lupercalia. A highlight of the street celebrations was a lotto. Young ladies would place their name in an urn for the chance to win a night with the most eligible bachelor.
The placement of Jupiter and Juno in the astrological chart gives some indication of how we relate. Jupiter is expansive and generous, but can be a bit too generous with his affections to everybody. He doesn't play favourites. The legend of Juno indicates she was constant to Jupiter despite his many infidelities. She indicates loyalty and tenacity. And sometimes the tendency to stay in a relationship long past its shelf date.

Your monthly horoscope. February 2010.

 Aries (21 Mar – 20 April)
There is no doubt this is a month of change for you. Your house of hopes, dreams and friends is chock-a-block. Expect surprises, grace and heavenly help to get to places you previously only dreamt about. Saturn is on your case for a good health and exercise regime.

 Taurus (21 April – 21 May)
Career takes a heavy focus this month. Is it time to make a lasting change. If you can muster the get up and go you will find the new winds of change rather pleasing. Take care of your responsibilities to loved ones.

 Gemini (22 May – 21 June)
Travel and communication are rarely far from your mind. This month will see a lot of comings and goings. Just be careful you’re not chasing your own tail. Things are a bit stiff and formal on the home front. Just ride the wave.

 Cancer (22 June – 22 July)
Upheaval is the name of the game this month. Your cherished routines are about to be trampled upon. You can expect disruption as the old and outmoded is torn away from you. Just relax and release. Surrender to the new.

Leo (23 July – 23 Aug)
Relationships take on a great significance this month. Whether it’s celebrating St. Valentines or trying to communicate with a bright young teenager the best way is to ensure you see the person behind the actions. Look into your heart and communicate from there.

  Virgo (24 Aug – 23 Sept)
You can expect a lot to happen on the work front this month. You’ll get the whiff of the new wind of change but don’t be too alarmed. Don’t allow yourself to get too worked up over your finances. While all about you are loosing their heads … you can keep cool.

  Libra (24 Sept – 23 Oct)
If you are ever going to take a chance or have a bit of a fling this is the month to do it. Don’t be afraid of a little risk. Friends and loved ones might seem pre-occupied this month leaving you to make your own fun. Rise to the challenge. Have a spectacular Artist’s Date.

 Scorpio (24 Oct – 22 Nov)
The activity is centred around home and family this month. Perhaps there is a house move or a lot to sort out with the family. Fathers or authority figures especially are being very lean with their praises. You job is to trust yourself.

 Sagittarius (23 Nov – 21 Dec)
People can be so cold sometimes. It will seem this way during the month. This gives you the opportunity to send out the invites. Throw an impromptu party just to celebrate life. Go ahead and see your calendar fill up.

 Capricorn (22 Dec – 20 Jan)
Money and career are on you mind. Investments that looked like sure fire opportunities just a couple of years ago might be giving you major headaches. Still every cloud has a silver lining. This month you can focus on where your true riches lie.

 Aquarius (21 Jan – 19 Feb
It’s all about you this month. Love and blessings are flowing your way. Just don’t get carried away with hubris – keep your feet on the ground. You might expect extra responsibility in areas related to the finances of others. So get your taxes in order.

 Pisces (20 Feb – 20 Mar)
The ease with which you can negotiate between the unseen and the seen will come in very useful this month. Stay cool and remember someone is not exactly levelling with you. Plans for study or travel may be delayed.

Blessings
