Friday, FEBRUARY 22

A square between Mercury and Jupiter today can incline us to exaggerate or blow things out of proportion. Information overload is possible now, and it’s all too easy to miss or neglect essential details. We may have a hard time putting our ideas to practical use, or we might overstate under this influence. Our thoughts and plans can be on the theatrical or grandiose side. We could have a hard time convincing others of our point of view, and we could too quickly jump to conclusions. There can be a lot of blowing off steam, talk about nothing, and a lack of clear mental focus, but we may make measurable progress if we can concentrate, and even if we can’t, our attitude is positive.

A Venus-Pluto alignment suggests getting beyond an obstacle. Our feelings are intense, and we have the power of attraction at our disposal. There is a tendency to want–and to demand–more than usual from a partnership or friendship. It’s important to note that there can be quite a flair for drama today. However, the Moon spends the day in compromising, rational, and fair Libra, which can help bring some objectivity to our lives.
