Then on the 25th, Venus square Jupiter
Venus represents the goddess of love and luxury. In square Jupiter, we may feel stretched out of our comfort zone or get surprised with some unplanned expenses. Do you have champagne taste on a beer budget? Are you trying to save up for something greater but haven’t been honest or realistic about your expenses? Squares help challenge our personal and spiritual growth. What do you want to be free from? What do you want to be free for? This transit represents the card of Temperance: what would the middle road look like? The energy can be felt a few days ahead of time and occurs February 25th and August 19th.
And on the 27th, Mars square Jupiter
Are you feeling the need to go above and beyond the call of duty? Some things are worth fighting for – but beware: it can be easy to make mountains out of molehills under this defensive energy. Your spirit is strong, use it wisely for your best karma. What do you need to shake off so that it doesn’t stick with you? Do you want to find a healthy physical outlet to funnel emotions through? Is it time to rewrite your agreement with reality, and reconsider what you perceive as possible? “When you find the urge to dominate others … Replace the search for external power with authentic power.” Wayne Dyer
February 28th is a powerful day:
Mercury CAZIMI in Pisces
“When Mercury is cazimi (conjunct the Sun), it is an auspicious time for communicating and writing from the Soul. Meditation activates the part of your brain that communes with your higher self. Do you feel your spidey senses? This one is in Pisces – the sign of the dreamer and the intuitive. Information wizardry: listen for downloads, bright ideas, and good news in the early morning or REM hours.
This transit can be felt a day in advance and occurs February 28th, April 12th, June 14th, August 19th, and September 30th, and December 6th. Cazimi’s bring a magical moment – do you want to read more about them here? https://wiseskiescollective.com/cazimi-a-magical-moment/”
Mercury conjunct Saturn in Pisces
Clear thinking. Organization. Concentration, focus, and serious communication. Clarity around your dreams. Receiving psychic hits while relaxed. Taking time to unplug in order to have space to understand and discern with clarity is important. This is a beneficial time to research and use the gifts of a clear mind/body. Mild boredom is likely if you’re not currently engaged with interesting ideas, projects, and conversations. Be mindful of necessary delays in travel or shipping and just go with the flow – ‘people watch’ and learn if your trip is put on hold. This can be felt a few days in advance.
Saturn CAZIMI in Pisces
When Saturn is cazimi (conjunct the Sun), it is an auspicious time for self-development activities. Hard work and spiritual discipline is rewarded. What are you devoted to in all your actions and words? Saturn represents time and karma. The time is ripe for the karma boomerang to return. Where can you thank your past self? Where can you start working today, for your future self? Beneficial relationships with your inner-authority are expanding. A secondary consideration: Where have you felt limited based on old fears? Is this ‘day one’, or ‘one day’? Is it time to rise and shine!? Cazimi’s bring a magical moment – do you want to read more about them here? https://wiseskiescollective.com/cazimi-a-magical-moment/
Closing out the month with a Leap Year!
Mercury sextile Jupiter
“Opportunity knocks. Get clear on your vision and imagine-big! The Skies support you in this: what you think about grows. Where do you want to find expansion, good luck, and good mojo? Just think about it, add an emotion into your vision. Wait and watch for what is wanting to happen through you. It’s also a beneficial time to interview, write resumes, self-promote, work with the media, travel, conduct book signings, gain favor in legal issues, investigate publishing, and explore spirituality. This transit can be felt a day in advance and occurs February 29th, and July 8th.

Relationship focus. The prominent people showing up in life right now have a leading role in your spiritual contracts and soul growth. Who wants the best for you? Who are you cheering forward?
