More Energy Changes - Pisces Rules

Last week I blogged about Mercury and Venus changing signs and the opposition between Mercury and retrograde Mars and what it all means. How we would feel different at the end of the week than we felt at the beginning. Here is a quote from that entry. “In the political world it rules public opinion, treaties, the Secretary of State and the public school system. A few days after entering Aquarius, Mercury and retrograde Mars oppose one another, a combative stance that does not bode well for peace and harmony.” Last week the Superintendent of schools in Central Falls announced that the entire teaching staff at Central Falls High School would be getting the boot. The teacher’s union is up in arms. Mercury ruling the public school system,the young, in Aquarius,speaks to organized groups, unions. Opposing Mars it also speaks to opposing opinions. This week is a Pisces week. On Sunday, February 14, 2010 Sun joins forces with Neptune in Aquarius. Neptune rules Pisces thus bringing the Pisces flavor to the table. This is a perfect aspect for Valentine’s Day. Love in its highest form. Venua is in Pisces, where, in astrological terms, she is exalted, meaning the Venusian energy operates at full force. Venus rules love, money, the arts, negotiation and diplomacy. On Monday Venus makes a positive connection with Pluto in Capricorn. Pluto, in Capricorn from 2008-2023, has the enormous task of purging society of those involved in big government and big business who have profited from the misery of others. Right now the public’s anger is directed at Congress, Washington, DC, Wall Street and the financial industry. Soon this will expand to include Big Pharma, health insurance and Big Oil. This is not an overnight process and will take some time. Venus will join forces with Pluto many time over the course of Pluto’s run through Capricorn. This week, Venus in Pisces offers the olive branch as she takes on the persona of the diplomat. Tuesday she joins forces with Jupiter also in Pisces, the sign that Jupiter rules. So you see, the Pisces energy is super strong. Jupiter is optimistic, confident and hopeful. Pisces is about our wishes and hopes. How we want things to be ideally. There is danger with Pisces in seeing things through rose-colored glasses. Seeing things how we want them to be, not how they really are. This is the time when we need to do a reality check. As Venus moves along touching base with the big boys she greases the wheels of negotiations and diplomatic relations. Mars, the warrior, the planet of action makes a friendly aspect to Saturn on Monday mixing things up. Saturn is in Libra and is also exalted here. Saturn principles operate well here. Saturn in Libra is the chief negotiator. Retrograde Mars in Leo wants to stir things up. Here Mars is all about strategy. In the political debates and union negotiations the name of the game this week is how to position oneself. On Thursday, Sun enters Pisces completing the Pisces takeover of the week. Watch the news reports and you will see that events reflect the Piscean ideals. Keep your eye on your own feelings and situation and how the Pisces influence impacts you personally.
We need those intangibles that feed the soul now. Take heed.
