The 1st is a day to celebrate, the 2nd to take extra time to check details. Except for the two eclipses--Solar on 2/6 and Lunar on 2/20 the month is relatively peaceful. Eclipses can herald change so be prepared. The 10th presents another opportunity for fuzzy thinking, however the 14th brings energy galore. Mercury turns direct on the 18th, for which all are grateful, the 23rd/24th suggests a need to balance discipline and creativity, the 26th brings another happy day. |
