• Lunar position ~ Capricorn  – Avoid risky endeavors today, focusing instead on activities that are fairly predictable and routine. That said, while you remain self-disciplined, don’t ignore opportunities that are unconventional in nature. You might uncover a direction that you didn’t see before and one that can resolve any challenges that may arise. Refer to the current Esoteric Influences for more information regarding today’s influences.
• Sign strength – there are seven planets/planetary bodies (The Sun, Vulcan, Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, and Pallas) in Aquarius today suggesting innovative thinking and group consciousness that builds toward progressive change. On the negative side, the Aquarian influence may impact one’s ability to remain sensitive to the emotions of others.

• Significant Aspects or patterns that may inspire or inform magickal workings. The Ascendant, North and South Nodes, as well as Lilith aspects are in their own categories below:
  • Stelliums (power interactions)
    • Sun/Vulcan/Mercury R/Pallas – the courage to develop a new strategy for interactions with others
  • Sun (12th/Aquarius) conjunct Vulcan (12th/Aquarius) – suggests courage is required to chart one’s own direction.
  • Sun (12th/Aquarius) conjunct Mercury R (12th/Aquarius) – describes strong communication skills with a tendency to speak instead of listening
  • Sun (12th/Aquarius) square Mars (2nd/Taurus) – suggests the potential for risky behavior and expressing oneself without causing conflict to break out
  • Sun (12th/Aquarius) semisquare Chiron (1st/Aries) – indicates trouble with self-expression and a need for patience and compassion
  • Venus (12th/Aquarius) square Uranus (2nd/Taurus) – suggests difficulty with commitment and compromise
  • Saturn (12th/Aquarius) square Uranus (2nd/Taurus) – describes issues with authority and compromise furthered on by inadequacy
  • Saturn (12th/Aquarius) sextile Chiron (1st/Aries) – indicates perseverance through emotional difficulties and from that experience to assist others on their own path

• Ascendant – Pisces – signals a sensitive and imaginative approach, an intuitive and empathic nature, with the tendency toward emotional imbalance or questionable boundaries.
• Black Moon Lilith ~ Taurus — remaining in your comfort zone is tempting, but it also signals an unwillingness to take risks toward a better outcome. In the 2nd House of money and self-worth, the risk may involve containing the darker aspects of self and the control of one’s ego. A square between Jupiter and our dark Goddess indicates excessive behavior is likely today. A weak conjunct with Uranus supports this tendency suggesting that you don’t like restriction, while a stronger conjunct today between Mars and Lilith cautions against overreaction.
• Node influences ~ N Node – Gemini; S Node – Sagittarius describes the need for self-control and a focus on a spiritual perspective. The challenge involves understanding the viewpoints of others as well as expressing your own in a helpful manner. A square continues between Neptune in Pisces and both the North and South Nodes signaling a focus on fantasy or imagination and suggests that maintaining your physical health will help ground and center your perspective and provide a foundation for creative success. A trine between the Sun and the North Node counsels you to let go of past perceptions that are holding you back.

• Lunar Phase ~ Balsamic; New Moon on 11 Feb 2021 at 11:06 AM PST at 23°Aq16
• Mansion of the Moon ~ 22nd – Caadaldeba – 1°Capricorn; head of Capricorn; encourages prisoners and servants to flee, cures disease
• Retrograde ~ Vesta – now in Virgo, look inward to better define your expectations of others so that you respect their boundaries, input or expertise; Mercury – slow down and reassess; look within and reassess perceptions and interactions with others.

---

• Polarity – Masculine (12), Feminine (11) – projective and receptive energies are in relative balance today signaling the ability to both assert oneself as well as step back when required.
• Elemental Influence ~  Air (intellect, reason, balance, communication) provides the strongest influence today suggesting interactions with others are important today. Earth follows indicating a focus on material concerns. Will and emotions (Fire and Water) are less of an influence suggesting self-assertion and flexibility may be less.
• Energetic Sign Quality/Mode ~ Fixed (stable) sign energies dominate the other qualities suggesting stability and routine are favored today. Motivation and flexibility may be the challenge.
• Rays ~ While all Rays appear to be increasing today, the 5th Ray of concrete knowledge and science continues to provide the strongest impact on our perceptions today signaling a focus on scientific knowledge and truth. The 1st Ray of will and power has strengthened its effect upon the expression of will while the 3rd Ray of active intelligence has increased its influence which may have an impact on achieving understanding or shared truth. The 4th Ray of harmony through conflict is remaining fairly steady from last week signaling ongoing discussions are occurring that could benefit from a focus on truth and with the increased impact of the 3rd Ray, we’ll see how that manifests. The 6th Ray of devotion and idealism continues to have an effect on how ideology impacts our perceptions and with the 2nd Ray of love and wisdom continuing in its lesser strength, ideology may overshadow rational or objective truth. Again, the 2nd Ray acts as a counterbalance to the 6th, and if in balance, it can provide a wiser influence on the potential cult-like effect of the 6th. With the lesser influence of the 2nd ray, a higher expression of wisdom or perspective may be lacking. Although the 7th Ray of ceremonial order and magick has increased its impact its level suggests manifesting harmony and new beginnings may still prove challenging. For further information, this post may be helpful.
