Astrology for the Soul February 12, 2025

I'm in a big transition,
From an old to a brand new me.
Though it's confusing, uncertain and scary,
It's important that I wait and see.

Well, the Leo Full Moon party is over today! Now, while she's waning through Virgo, Libra, and Scorpio, we can welcome the Sun and Mercury into Pisces. I think it is an interesting coincidence that the Gregorian (patriarchal) calendar ends the year and begins the next with Capricorn except that I don't believe in coincidences, LOL! The hierarchical, pyramidal socio-political, and religious structures, particularly of Western civilization with its focus on materialism (earth), capitalism, and competition (cardinal earth), are supported by such a calendar. 

However, if we look at the seasons of the northern hemisphere, where astrology has its roots, Pisces is the end of the winter season, with Aries bringing in the new year at the Spring equinox. This reflects the spiritual nature of this time when long dormant seeds just begin to awaken as the Sun warms the soil. 
As I discuss in today's report, we have not only the Sun and Mercury transiting into Pisces but the Moon's north node, Saturn, and Neptune! It's a big closing period of releasing the past in preparation for a new cycle. The Moon's node is just beginning a new 18.6-year cycle, while Saturn is closing a 28-year-old identity (who have you been for the last 28 years, and are you ready to shed it?), and Neptune is closing a 165-year cycle wherein collective unconscious is purging itself of old paradigms. 

A metaphor that came to me about this time period (the next couple of months) is the memory that I have of a "previous life" when I worked for Virtual Microsystems in Silicon Valley. At the end of the year, the whole company would close for a week or two while we did INVENTORY. Yup, we'd count every resistor, capacitor, PC (printed circuit) board, and even foam shipping carton to see whether or not everything was accounted for. 

During this time of inventory (reflection) no outward sales or activity took place. The deep internal examination sometimes led to accountability issues if there was too much or too little stock. Did someone make a mistake? Report too many sales or too few? Lie, cheat, steal? Break something, write down the wrong number, order the wrong parts? 

Sometimes, taking inventory can lead to deep self-examination where we find ourselves lacking, lost, or missing "parts of ourselves." Looking back, we may find that we're repeating patterns due to "not getting it," or we're just unable to figure certain things out in our lives and move forward. Alternatively, we may have some excess inventory! We are more or have more than we thought, and we underestimate or undersell ourselves. 

One way or the other, this process of Piscean self-examination, assisted by retrograde Mars in Cancer (home, domestic, and emotional life) and next month by Venus and Mercury retrograding back into Pisces until April, is a great time for learning, growing, and changing. Rather than remain distracted by the pull of external society and its demands, let's take some time out "in limbo," as the more we square everything away now, the better our future will be!
