Pisces Season and the Power of the Aries North Node

Pisces season starts mid February and Venus & Vesta takes us through the emotional landscape that the sign of the fish takes us through.  This sign will draw out all our compassion and empathy for those suffering in the world with hope that we get more nuance about the major Aries conjunction that is bringing us to war. KEY TAKEAWAYS The North Node destiny point in Aries is active all month long, drawing out the narrative that war is the way to peace, yet it makes a conjunction to Chiron, who is the wise counsellor, inviting us as individuals (as Aries rules the individual ego), to look at the pain and suffering that this will cause. The North Node and Chiron conjunction is exact on 19th February and as this is the first day of Pisces season, the emotional cost of where we are heading will highlighted in some way. The Sun in Pisces is going to be working with Saturn, who also has the wisdom to look at emotional heartache in Pisces and perhaps make sure we are compassionate and empathetic in our dealings. The Virgo Full Moon wants all the details and her discernment allows us to cut away anything that is unstable or erratic.  We can use her energy to look into our finances the global finances, and do the right thing. The upcoming solar eclipse on April 8th in Aries further emphasises the themes of personal evolution and future-mindedness. The conjunction of Venus, Mars, and Pluto in Aquarius from February 20th to 23rd brings a powerful and complementary energy for creative endeavours and community-focused actions. February ends with a leap year and Venus & Vesta explains how this brings the Tropical astrology in line with the calendar and seasons on earth. BEST MOMENTS "I just want to give a shout-out to Aquarius season because it has been quite confusing, utterly expansive and really sort of there's been some powerful shifts going on."  "I mean, really lovely things like my friend's daughter's passed her part driving test theory the first time around. Great, great news. My housemate moved out and that was a big win for me. My friend's husband got a fabulous new job." "Aquarius is about expanding your mind and moving into the future. But also now in February, all month long, we have the North Node, which is our destiny point, our future point, active all month long."  "Chiron is the master healer - he wants us to heal, obviously, but at first we get triggered and upset, but eventually we've got to understand, we've got to move out of being sorry for ourselves or reacting in an overly emotional way." "Here is the sun coming up to Saturn for the 27th. So, yeah, look, this is a growing idea. We're going to get peace via guns, but slowly there's going to be more and more politicians, more and more people standing up and saying, no, no, this is the actual cost of the war."  Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/venusandvesta/?hl=en   Website - https://www.venusandvesta.com  Ann-Louise Holland is a shamanic homoeopath, herbalist and astrologer.  She teaches astrology along with Steiner based anthroposophy, both of which are concerned with cultural events that bring about humanity's evolution and awareness to the soul's journey.  Venus & Vesta is a podcast about astrology for astrologers, monthly updates on the movements of the planets and asteroids, weekly detailed discussions, aligning the stars with what is happening in the world.
