The lunar cycle this month inspires the dawn of vision. Look forward and wide, see what you intend to create alone and with others. Let it surprise you. Let events this month churn the depths of your heart so that your sight becomes authentic.

Aquarius has moonlit flashes of thought for the benefit of all, while a square between Mars and Pluto intensifies our anger, will, and passions. We are at once envisioning beauty while we must face who we truly are. Observe and let any shadows into the light of cosmic humor and loving absurdity. We need be light with whatever circumstances arise. We can play and delight. Powerful energies are showing up now. They can humble and transform us, if we allow, allow, allow, our hearts to break even. Heart must guide vision. Aquarius highlights community and family, belonging. Apply your cutting and off beat way of seeing things. While celebrating the group, realize true individuality. Things are not as they seem. Embrace or release whatever energies to spur you forward. See the big picture. Aquarius seeks an enlightened society but mindful of when this ideal becomes a hindrance to progress. The antidote it to #feelitall and work with others, without following blindly nor dismissing detachedly.

February 5th is also Losar Tibetan New Year / Shambhala Day. It’s the year of the Yin Earth Pig. The combo is said to be nurturing and strengthens our ties with community, health, and nourishment. Celebrate the feminine wisdom embodied and your receptivity.
