Stars Above Kitsap

Feeling fried? The electrical craziness of Jan. 20’s Aquarian new moon settles down with Mercury retrograde giving us a chance to figure out where in the world we are shooting off to.

To survive the upheaval in our society, everyone needs to figure out a personal mission statement — a two-year process is coming up — but we know deep inside we can’t keep throwing everything we’ve got at the wall and getting stuck with what sticks!

The Feb. 3 full moon in Leo teams up with expansive Jupiter, also retrograde, and lined up with slow moving Saturn who puts a damper on the party. This combination deepens the question of where are we going so fast, do we really want to go there, and heck, is it fun?

Pisces energy softens intensity, as Mars — the god of war — waltzes with his goddess of love, Venus. We need this quiet break, people, so plan a few fun, mindless dates. Valentine’s at the General Store Cafe in Port Gamble? Quiet time in front of a slot machine at The Point or the Clearwater Casino? An art or nature walk? Find your zen somehow.

Horoscopes

Feb. 3-18

Aquarius, you may or may not be the problem in the your larger circle of friends. Stay true to yourself as you wait it out. A close friend could hold the mirror for you. Meanwhile, proceed cautiously with organizational plans.

Pisces, you are oh, so (too) willing to give yourself up for the greater good but, my little angel, your body must be tended to. However you do that, make it fun. Maybe a spa date at the Longworth Studio with your best pal could perk you up and leave you looking good.

Aries, your body is a transforming station for electrical energy. Seriously, touching others can heal them. Remember not everything can be figured out — let information come to you through dreams, repetitive images, song lyrics or time with your goddess of love.

Taurus, work is busy and as hard to organize as a basket of kittens. Home looks oh, so far away and the god and goddess combo is a direct hit to your heart. Take a gentle, wandering, unfocused stroll with your sweetie or dog. Nature is always a balm for you.

Gemini, your friend Mercury, going retrograde, slows you down enough to realize how fast you’ve been moving. You seriously need a mission statement … not too little, and not too big, but just right so you can stick to it and not get bored. Logic is your strong suit but gentle dreams saturate the air. All is information you can use to find your north star.

Cancer, in a real sense, any full moon is your full moon because the moon is your ruler. This one has you pondering resources, time, money, energy and your body on two levels: how you use those for yourself and in close partnerships. You give a lot, but you also soak up a lot from others. Taking care of your body is a habit you must practice.

Leo, this is your full moon. Yahoo! Cozied up to Jupiter and wired to Aquarius, you are totally ready to party with brilliant, weird and wired friends and lovers. You may even enjoy a moment in the spotlight — dancing on the table tops or dazzling others with your wisdom. Your personal statement is well on its way and others seek your guidance.

Virgo is another friend of retrograde Mercury. Getting the nitty-gritty of life just right takes real perception and observation. Watch yourself as though a little drone flies over your head taking notes.  You have a guardian angel, willing to help if you ask. Messages await in dreams.

Libra, Aquarius is such a kick with the snap, crackle, pop of creativity. Circulate among large groups and wacky friends to get the most out of this moon. Venus and Mars may be showing you exactly where you’ve lost your focus in your ‘hands-on, get the work done’ routines. Ahhhh, there it is!

Scorpio, technology is fun — when it works. Electricity at your base could be burning out systems. What tools do you really need, and which are toys not worth your time? The Mars/Venus dance shows up in your area of fun and romance. Let someone take you down a soft, fuzzy road. It’s not natural for you, but you need the break.

Sagittarius, we can only hope the Seahawks’ Russell Wilson has as fortunate a full moon as you are up for. While hanging out in the personal arenas of your life, you’re pondering your pole star. What is a mission statement that includes heart and tenderness, and  recognizes that everyone needs recognition?

Capricorn, power behind the scenes must work for individual power — then a culture has true justice and power. Heavy, man. Keep the faith, speak with compassion about the 1 percent and lean into your mission. You aren’t alone — look behind you where many join the grassroots revolution. OMG, you are a leader!
