Monday, FEBRUARY 18

Chiron enters Aries today, where it will transit until 2026-2027. With this transit, we’re rebuilding our confidence, which is a particularly sensitive topic now. Personal and health problems or body image issues that have held us back come up for review. We’re learning to assert ourselves and focus on our needs (in healthy doses) without feeling guilty in the process. This transit emphasizes the concept that healing begins within oneself.

Chiron entered Aries in April 2018 before returning to complete its transit of Pisces from September 25th, 2018, to today. The year 2019 features Uranus moving out of Aries (in just over two weeks from now) and Chiron’s move into the sign!

As well today, the Sun enters Pisces where it will spend the coming month. During this cycle, we are guided by altruistic feelings. We are less motivated to do than we are to feel, imagine, and dream. A “what will be, will be” attitude reigns, and a sense of universal correlations guides us. Pisces rules empathy, selfless love, devotion, and wisdom. Its shadow side involves self-pity, a feeling of being victimized by life, passivity, and avoidance.

This morning, the Venus-Saturn alignment perfects, and we may be facing reality about our finances, a personal belief, or a love/social matter. A commitment may be made, or there can be a “test” of sorts to an existing commitment. Renewed ties to old friends, ideas, and projects are possible, or a new sense of responsibility towards existing ones can emerge.

As the day advances, however, we head towards a Mercury-Neptune alignment, which has an entirely different flavor! Daydreaming, visualization, and prophecy are stimulated. It’s possible to heal and inspire through our words. However, it’s not an ideal time for clarity and straightforward communications. We should avoid allowing wishful thinking to dictate our decisions.

The Moon spends the day in Leo, and its harmony with Jupiter in Sagittarius this evening encourages us to grow, improve, and pursue our ideals or goals with confidence.
