FEBRUARY 2020 {overview}
2020 is a leap year, and our gift of an additional day comes this month.
This month is focused on INTEGRATION and
finding the BALANCE as best we can,
on the heels of the roller coaster days of Dec/Jan,
within the continuing ups and downs ahead,
and about being attentive to personal boundaries.
Much will come through ALTERNATIVES…
doing things differently, while
Nurturing and nourishing personal power and individuality.
Resist the tendency to fall back into old patterns of behavior, as this is the quickest way to lose yourself, your boundaries, your power…
We continue to be guided to embrace the unique self,
to present this authentic self to the world without shame or fear.
to find our personal power within the darkness.
to see, honor, and nurture the light that grows within
Bringing our energy forward and outward.
…Along the way we have bursts of inspiration, creativity, and clarity…
This is a great month for thinking outside the box, and for finding alternatives.
There is a caution flag up this month highlighting carelessness and misjudgment,
As decisions made this month will have long term consequences
So allow the space for perspective and consideration before making any bold moves.
This also applies to HEALTH.
Decisions around any drastic course of action regarding health, such as surgery, should not be made too quickly or without seriously looking at “the alternatives”
Synchronicities
will reinforce the path when moving in the right direction.
Quick push backs or smack downs
are reminders that navigating within lower level energies does not serve the highest good.
With this, the KARMIC CLEANSING and
DISMANTLING of structure and power continues.
Be sure infrastructures are in place or are being tended to.
It is of vital importance to be working from the ground up, right now…
to look beneath the surface – winter’s gift,
to ensure growth and productivity are fully supported.
The connections to The Ancient Ones & Ancient Ways continues to come forward into the conscious mind.
This will intensify throughout the month, with archaic memories flooding and potentially overloading us at times.
There will be several days where ancient wisdom will be downloaded, the effects of which will be extreme fatigue, feeling emotional, agitated, disoriented and confused.
Milk baths, bay leaves (in bath or burn), jasmine (in milk bath, tea, diffuse), Eucalyptus (in shower, diffuse, in a balm across shoulders), rest/ quiet retreat, and plenty of water will help to ease the integration process and the stresses of the month.
This new decade is pushing us to examine, refine, and heal our relationships,
Including (especially) our relationship with our self.
This month is the time for clarity within our current relationships,
and to create greater balance in our relationships as we move forward.
Remember that we have been guided to be authentic to who we are – versus trying to live up to who we think others want or expect us to be.
Listen to your own inner voice. Honor your own needs.
Within romantic relationships,
take the time to reinforce love, attraction, and the bonds shared.
Celebrate the gifts of a romantic partnership by giving extra time and attention to
the appreciation of the little things, romantic gestures, and plenty of passionate love making.
MERCURY goes RETROGRADE on the 16th through March 9th,
adding to what will be a highly charged midmonth period.
Boundaries will be pushed (crossed),
Trust will be eroded
forcing the need to reexamine many areas of “life”.
This will be a revolutionary period, across the board.
DISease on the planet will continue to rise.
Expect the political and earth landscapes to erupt,
as the needs of society and the planet continue to be ignored.
This month’s dark moon phase will help to clear much of the landscape,
making way for those alternative visions to take shape.
By the end of the month, missing information will come forward, bringing understanding and clarity.
It may even seem to appear out of thin air. This is YOU manifesting what is needed to move forward on your own unique journey.
DATES OF NOTE:
02/02/202
A palindrome date, an exceptionally rare mirror image date. The next will be 03/03/3030, 1000 years from now.
It is the 33rd day of the year.
333 days remain.
“The Goddess is Alive and magic is afoot.”
The day holds a heightened magic vibration,
and contains an amplified, direct line to the power of creation through the Divine Feminine.
This is a day for calling things in. So carefully consider all that you would like to see manifest in the coming years.
Use this portal to seed the vision of the utopian future for yourself, your family, and all of humanity!
2/02 – Imbolc
The Goddess Brigid’s day.
Though Persephone, Hecate, and the green man may make their presence known.
Always good to show them some recognition. too.
The halfway marker between winter and spring,
From winter’s rest emerges the returning light and the first inklings of spring
Our energy begins to shift, as we prepare to step out and engage more with the outer realms.
The fires of inspiration are stoked. Plans begin to take more solid form.
Still, we rest and reflect.
But the balance will begin to shift to a more active state, as we move closer to the Spring Equinox.
To me, this is not a day of excess, feasting, or over-indulgences.
This is a day of purification and “Light-ness”
Mid-winters dormancy does not want anything too jarring.
We are still sleepy, not fully out of hibernation. Not fully ready to burst outward.
Gather round a fire and/or Light a candle,
Enjoy some easing music
and a lighter meal
– perhaps some soup and a good wine – not too much.
Celebrate the light of life.
2/09 – THE FULL MOON
Your dreams are calling. Emotions are heightened. There is a reawakening, as the visions for your life take form.
There is a burst of energy coming with this moon which could be overwhelming.
Pay attention to how you are reacting physically, emotionally, spiritually so that you can manage your responses.
Remember, boundaries, self-care… find quiet in the chaos
2/14 – St Valentines Day
Love is in the air. Or is it?
Due to where it falls within the month – energetically speaking, try not to put too much pressure on yourself or anyone else to fulfill the societal obligations around the day.
Better to spread the love out, throughout the month, in a way that honors the needs of one another.
This is more authentic.
This is a good day to simply be satisfied with what you have in life and to put some extra love into all you do.
*** and so begins a week or so of intensity. This is where balance and boundaries are key. ***
Feb 16/17 – MERCURY goes RETROGRADE
The first Mercury Retrograde of 2020 – 2/16 through 3/09
Its pre-shadow period begins on 2/01, and its post shadow ends around 3/29
This one arrives during a highly charged and challenging time.
This time period will highlight the illusions we hold on to. Especially around power and control.
Watch communication with others.
Tolerance, understanding and compassion will be challenged but will be of greatest benefit.
Know that this year’s Mercury
Retrogrades will be valuable assets for those who are open.
Put your energy and focus into what is most important, and what you value
most.
Be flexible. Don’t take things too seriously or too personally.
Especially those things which are out of your control.
Plan ahead.
Be thoughtful with your communications.
Give the breath and the space to be responsive, rather than reactive.
This day, the 16th may feel heavy and difficult to navigate. Exhaustion
may suddenly hit you.
Try to avoid having too much on your plate and be prepared to give yourself
some extra down time.
2/20 to 12/24 – DARK MOON PHASE
This comes on the edge of some bold, intense chaos energy.
Though potentially challenging,
it will be a welcome time of clearing away all the nonsense that has been building up to this point.
Take advantage of this power time to do some pre-spring cleaning,
As well as, to engage in rituals of cleansing and healing.
As we get to the New Moon’s peak,
the energy will start to level out and we should be feeling good and “sane” again.
2/23 – NEW MOON
This beautiful New Moon cycle that will prepare us for the new beginnings to come, as we welcome the beginning of spring.
The energy will start to level out,
the hard edges will soften,
and we should be feeling able and willing (excited even) to take on the days ahead.
At least within our own little corner of the universe.
2/29 – LEAP DAY
Another great day to focus on abundance and the infinite potential the universe holds for each of us.
Take advantage of this extra day by doing something special for yourself,
or something that excite you – that feeds your soul, that you feel you never have time to do.
However it is spent, be sure your mindset is in your heart space.
Positive, gratitude, fun, easy… are the keywords for this day

(The work I do is about connection to spirit, the dimensional realms, the moon, and energy. My “Dates of Notes” are therefore days when we know we will be influenced by and have access to specific energy.
As well, I am not an astrologer so I’m not going to list all the astrological transits.)
