Know your strength, know your path,
and walk it as a son or daughter of God.

May God grant me Health, Protection and Guidance.
The Sun has entered AQUARIUS
Aquarius, you are the Eleventh Sign of the Zodiac. After the establishment and structure of the energies of Capricorn, it is your job to make sure that these structures blend, mix and are flexible with the needs of the people they are meant to serve. In the Northern Hemisphere, yours is the month of the deepest part of winter, which can be most unrelenting. The cold, dry air crackels with electricity. Yet the light of Spring is returning, most perceptibly, along with signs of life, although subtle, which stirs our hopes that Spring will arrive soon. In the Western Zodiac yours is the sign of the Water Bearer, although his jugs were more likely to be filled with air, which is your element. In early Babylonian times your constellation was called the “Giant,” suggesting a great being who knows all and sees all. You are likely to be aware of any political situation since you represent group dynamics. You may now value your role as a detached outsider, especially if you feel there is corruption with group leaders. However, you will be completely devoted to a group that fulfills its stated objectives – when the objectives are those you firmly believe in. Your beliefs generally center around the rights of individuals and the advancement of knowledge. You also tend to assert your own individuality, even if it means working against your own interests. (It is said that those with an Aquarian Moon are most cold and detached.) Your greatest shortcoming is an automatic reaction against any rules, even those that are for your true benefit. Above all, your strong freedom seeking instincts will force you to stand up fo yourself as well as for the rights of others. Used wisely, this drive can serve both yourself and those you influence.

ANIMAL—The Opossum—DIVERSION
Opossum…Roll over!
Are you really dead?
Or just playing possum?
Was it something I said?
The Opossum greatest form of protection is to roll over and play dead. In doing this, Opossum confuses many a predator into believing that the game is over. Oftentimes the confused rival walks away or looks in the other direction for a moment, and the Opossum runs to safety.
Opossum medicine uses a great deal of strategy. If all else fails, Opossum plays dead. It has the ability to fight with its claws and teeth, but rarely uses this form of protection. Instead, the supreme strategy of diversion is constantly employed when things get a little hard to handle. Opossum has developed an act that would receive the Academy Award in the animal kingdom. The musk of the death scent is excreted as well, adding to the master play that sends enemies on many trails of confusion.
As Opossum has turned up for the vibration of February 2020, you are being asked to use some form of strategy in a present situation. Rely upon your instincts for the best way out of a tight corner. If you have to pretend to be apathetic or unafraid, do it! Oftentimes if you refuse to struggle or show that hurtful words bother you, your taunter will see no further fun to the game. Warriors have used Opossum medicine for centuries, playing dead when the enemy nears and outnumbers them. Then, in a flash, when the enemy is least expecting it, the war cry is heard. The fright of this serves to further confuse the unsuspecting opposition. Victory is sweet when the strategy is one of mental as well as physical prowess.
Opossum is relaying to you that you are to expect the unexpected and be clever in achieving your victory. This could be a victory over a bothersome salesman or nosey neighbor. In essence, Opossum is beckoning you to use your brain, your sense of drama, and surprise attack—to leap over some barrier to your progress.

RUNE OF THE MONTH
GROWTH
Re-Birth — A Birch Tree
Berkana is the Rune of the Life Process. It denotes fertility that promotes growth both symbolically and actually. This growth may occur in affairs of the world, family matters, or the relationship with one’s self and the Divine. This is a “leading to” Rune in that it is the seed planted that leads to blossoming and ripening.
What is called for here is going into things deeply, with care and awareness. This Rune is concerned with the power of influencing development and with the flow of beings which brings them into their new forms. Its action is gentle, penetrating, and pervasive.
First disperse your resistance, then accomplish the work. For this to happen, your Will must be clear and controlled. In regard to the issue, your motives must be correct. Any “dark corners” should be cleansed; this must be carried out diligently and sometimes with expert or professional help. Modesty, patience, fairness, and generosity are called for here. Do you possess these virtues?
Once resistance is dispersed and rectification carried out and seen to hold firm, then through steadfastness and the right attitude, the blossoming can occur. At times events or, more likely, aspects of character, may interfere with the growth of a new life and life process. You may feel dismay at failing to take the right action. But, rather than discouragement, what is called for in February 2020, is diligence. Examine what has taken place over the past six months, your role in it, your needs, and the needs of others. Are you placing your wants before the needs of others? Strip down, as you meditate, until you can identify the blocks to growth in the current situation. Then, penetrating gently, while imitating the wind.
You may be required to fertilize the ground again; to re-do something or re-think something, but with the correct preparation, growth is assured.
Don’t be afraid to make the leap or take the chance.

Mercury retrogrades February 16th through March 9th, 2020
The Personal Signs:
ARIES (3/21-4/20)
In February it’s hard to focus your attention as your creative mind shifts into overdrive. You’re in uncharted territory that Lights you up from inside. You may feel like you’ve struck gold. Now Aries, find a way to manifest all these great ideas with the seeds you have planted
TAURUS (4/21-5/21)
In February life begins to settle down, although you may feel a bit of numbness. Do not give up or throw in the towel. You are actually doing some very important inner level work at a very deep level. Relax, trust, and breathe, and all will come together in time.
GEMINI (5/21-6/20)
February brings a softer and lighter, if not foggy, feeling around the edges. You are finding out where your life is on track or where it’s stuck. Another month of caution is recommended, especially since mercury is retrograde for most of the month. Take time to look at where things are in your life, especially concerning your career and money.
CANCER (6/21-7/22)
February allows the pressure to ease up and you can breathe easier again. It’s a good time to take charge and establish some healthy boundaries with others. Remember, you can’t fix what you didn’t break.
LEO (7/23-8/22)
In February you bounce back from the deep depths you have been through with enthusiasm and determination. This allows you to put everything in its proper perspective and reconnects you to the core of who you really are. Push forward with strength and watch out world!
VIRGO (8/23-9/22)
February brings an amazing relief from that pressure, and you wonder what all the fuss was about. You deserve to be calm and comfortable. Just know that you are processing in spaces and places in your consciousness that are immune to the Virgo logical mind.
LIBRA (9/23-10/22)
February brings the desire to have fun and play, which ignites a huge creative spark that shows you just how vibrant and alive your world, your life, and you can be. You like people, yes you do. You feel free because you see people as who they really are without the need to save them.
SCORPIO (10/23-11/22)
You are not at all enamored with the lack of focus that plagues you as February opens. You want to get something – anything – accomplished, but everything seems to vaporize without warning. Relief is on the way at month’s end, when you can put your preparation to good use.
SAGITTARIUS (11/23-12/21)
In February you breathe a huge sigh of relief. Your confidence returns and you realize it’s always a challenge when you lose sight of that inner compass. One thing that emerges is the awareness that you need to revitalize you, how you handle money and success, and you are driven to do so. You feel there is no choice because you cannot live a life that holds no meaning for you.
CAPRICORN (12/22-1/19)
February brings in more confusion and uncertainty. One minute your focused and making plans, and the next minute they all vaporize. Accept that this is about learning to think imaginatively and not rationally, and some very interesting possibilities can begin to emerge.
AQUARIUS (1/20-2/18)
February allows you to take a deep breath and begin to feel like yourself again, only better. You’re aware that this is only temporary but don’t attempt to read the future. You probably need to clear your circuits so you can meet every challenge or delay with grace and confidence rather than impatience and grumpiness.
PISCES (2/19-3/20)
February isn’t much better than last month, Pisces. You feel as if there’s a cloud hanging over your head that will hit you with unforeseen troubles and complications. Take heart. It’s only the past hitting you in the face, along with some strong negative energy that’s hitting everyone now. Put your guilt and pain away because it’s appropriate to focus on your life and your healing at this time. To make significant changes you need to recharge and regroup. Then the awareness of what your next step should be will come.
