Saturday, FEBRUARY 28

This morning’s Mercury-Venus alignment is friendly and past-oriented. We tend to analyze or intellectualize our feelings.

With Mercury retrograde, there can be much ruminating or conversing about past relationships. This can be a time of new revelations about old issues.

We are inclined to chat, socialize, and flatter when Mercury and Venus meet, and with Mercury retrograde, we may be looking back and clarifying feelings or connections.

This is a cooperative influence that stirs our desire for harmony and balance, and as a result, we may not dig too deeply.

Mentally, we’re not as disciplined as usual, preferring to chat and think about pleasant things. It’s a friendly time, but it’s also a time for looking back at old issues in a new, although possibly glossed-over, way.

Whether or not glossing over is helpful is the question — some things belong in the past. We can feel as if we are starting fresh. Certainly, our ideas feel new and exciting, even if we are recycling some old perspectives.

The Moon continues its transit of Cancer until 3:17 AM EST, when it heads into Leo. The Leo Moon stirs our need to play, express ourselves, and create.

We’re enthusiastic and take particular pride in our accomplishments. We can visualize what we want to do, and our sense of form is strong.

The Moon continues its void period until it enters Leo today at 3:17 AM EST.
