When the Full Moon occurs during the Moon’s closest approach to Earth, its perigee, it appears larger and brighter in the sky. This phenomenon is often called a supermoon.
When a Full Moon takes place when the Moon is near its closest approach to Earth, it is called a Super Full Moon. When there is a New Moon around the closest point to Earth, it is known as a Super New Moon.
A Micromoon, on the other hand, is when a Full or a New Moon is near its farthest point from Earth, around apogee. It’s also known as a Minimoon, Mini Full Moon, or a Mini New Moon.
A New Moon at perigee is also often referred to as a supermoon. However, this event usually garners less attention because a New Moon is invisible from Earth.
The Moon’s orbit around Earth is not a perfect circle, but elliptical, with one side closer to Earth than the other. As a result, the distance between the Moon and Earth varies throughout the month and the year. On average, the distance is about 382,900 kilometers (238,000 miles).
The point on the Moon’s orbit closest to Earth is called the perigee and the point farthest away is the apogee.
Supermoon is not an official astronomical term. It was first coined by an astrologer, Richard Nolle, in 1979. He defined it as ‘a New or a Full Moon that occurs when the Moon is at or near (within 90% of) its closest approach to Earth in its orbit’. It is not clear why he chose the 90% cut off in his definition.
There are no official rules as to how close or far the Moon must be to qualify as a Supermoon or a Micro Moon. Different outlets use different definitions. Due to this, a Full Moon classified as a Supermoon by one source may not qualify as a Super Full Moon by another.
The following definitions are used at timeanddate.com:
A Super Full Moon’s angular size is 12.5%–14.1% bigger than a Micro Full Moon, and 5.9%–6.9% bigger than an average Full Moon (in years 1550–2650).
Astronomical terms & definitions
The technical term for a Supermoon is perigee-syzygy of the Earth-Moon-Sun system. In astronomy, the term syzygy refers to the straight-line configuration of three celestial bodies. Another name is perigee Full Moon.
When the Moon is close to the lunar nodes of its path during a syzygy, it causes a total solar eclipse or a total lunar eclipse
Because it’s so close to Earth, a Super Full Moon also looks about 30% brighter than a Micro Full Moon and about 16% brighter than an average Full Moon.
The Supermoon on November 14, 2016, was the closest since January 26, 1948. The next time a Full Moon will come even closer to Earth is on November 25, 2034 (dates based on UTCtime).
The best time to enjoy a Super Full Moon, or any other Full Moon, is just after moonrise, when the Moon is close to the horizon. Just before moonset is also a good time.
When the Full Moon is low, it looks bigger and brighter than when it’s higher up in the sky. This is called the Moon illusion, and actually makes more of a difference to what it looks like than the real boost you get from it being a bit closer to Earth.
The greatest difference between high and low tide is around Full Moon and New Moon. During these Moon phases, the gravitational forces of the Moon and the Sun combine to pull the ocean’s water in the same direction. These tides are known as spring tides or king tides.
Supermoons lead to around 5 cm (2 inches) larger variation than regular spring tides, called perigean spring tides.
The tidal range is smallest during the two Quarter Moons, known as neaps or neap tide.
Although the Sun and the Moon’s alignment cause a small increase in tectonic activity, the effects of the Supermoon on Earth are minor. Many scientists have conducted studies, and they haven’t found anything significant that can link the Super Moon to natural disasters.
According to NASA, the combination of the Moon being at its closest and at Full Moon, should not affect the internal energy balance of the Earth since there are lunar tides every day.
The full moon on Tuesday February 19, 2019 is in the first degree of Virgo. The Full Moon February 2019 astrology is exciting, adventurous and sexy. It joins the courageous fixed star Regulus and is in good aspect to the liberating conjunction of Mars and Uranus.
The February 2019 full moon brings opportunities for change, romance and success. This is wonderful timing because it follows on from the good news, good luck February 4 new moon. It is such a rare thing to have consecutive moon phases with so much potential.
A full moon occurs when the Sun is opposite the Moon. This highlights opposing forces or polarities in your life such as your work versus home, or what you need versus what you want. Inner tension and external pressures can lead to personal conflict and crises that drain your energy. Your home, family and intimate relationships comes into sharper focus following a full moon.
The lunar qualities of emotions and instincts reach their peak at a full moon. Use you increased emotional strength and intuition to overcome any relationship challenges. Subconscious awareness allows for an impartial and balanced look at your personal relationships. You will clearly see any relationship dynamics or negative feelings causing disharmony.
A full moon has a relationship to the previous new moon. Your February 4 new moon goals can now be fine-tuned or completed, it is harvest time. You can make emotional adjustments in response to those new goals. Full moon February 2019 lasts for two weeks up to the March 6 new moon.
The February 19 full moon at 00°42′ Virgo Sign is conjunct the mighty fixed star Regulus in the Heart of the Lion, Leo Constellation. So this is a strong, sexy and daring full moon. The Moon also makes the bountiful trine aspect (120°) to a Mars Uranus conjunction. This exciting and revolutionary alignment compliments the bold nature of Regulus.
Fixed star Regulus at 00°05′ Virgo Sign gives courage, independence, ambition, success, power and fame. It is the star of royalty, generals, presidents, sex symbols, athletes and astrologers. Regulus makes people competitive, aggressive, generous and open-minded.
However, the success, brash self-confidence and frankness of Regulus breeds envy, hatred and powerful enemies. Not so long ago, to become the king you had to kill the king. Donald Trump has Ascendant and Mars conjunct Regulus. He will be on the front foot and especially combative during this eventful two-week moon phase.
According to Robson [1], Moon conjunct Regulus gives occult interests, powerful friends, gain by speculation and public prominence, with great power, honor and wealth. But such benefits seldom last and there is danger from enemies and false friends, violence, trouble and sickness. Regulus with the Moon also makes women high-spirited and independent.
Leo Constellation is associated with royal events, especially the ascension or death of kings and queens, the election or death of heads of state, assassinations, uprisings, massacres, currency, the stock exchange, the Vatican and the European Union.
The precession of the equinoxes explains why full moon February 2018 is in the Sign of Virgo but the Constellation of Leo. The planets and fixed stars influence your life, not 12 imaginary divisions on a piece of paper.
The full moon February 2019 astrology chart below shows Mars conjunct Uranus connected to the full moon by the harmonious blue trine aspect. There is another significant planetary alignment shown below. Mercury conjunct Neptune is sextile Venus conjunct Saturn. But the most important influence on the full moon is the Mars Uranus conjunction.
Mars conjunct Uranus gives a strong urge to break free of limiting conditions. On its own, this is an erratic, unpredictable and volatile conjunction. However, the harmonious aspects to the Sun and Moon lower the risk of reckless behavior and upsetting events. This means you can let your hair down and take a few risks. Let this full moon spice up your life with change, excitement and adventure.
Trust your instincts and follow your passionate desires. You can fully express your kinky side under this sexually provocative influence. Open mindedness and experimentation could be sexually liberating, reinvigorate an exiting relationship, or bring a passionate new romance. A lowering of inhibition will bring greater personal freedom and unexpected opportunities.
This is a good full moon to get new projects off the ground with a burst of daring energy. Although your fighting spirit and adrenaline will eventually fade, you can get new projects to a state where that initiative is no longer required.
Mercury conjunct Neptune on its own can bring confusion, fear, deception and scandal. But the sextile to Venus Saturn brings sensitivity, romance, sensuality, karmic attraction and creative imagination.
Venus conjunct Saturn on its own can bring sadness, loneliness and lack of affection. But the sextile to Mercury Neptune brings companionship, true love, reassurance, loyalty and commitment.
Together, the alignment of these four planets brings compassion, healing, selflessness, clairvoyance and spirituality. This is a good full moon for dreaming, psychic awareness and learning occult subjects like astrology and Tarot.
Both Regulus and the Mars Uranus conjunction have the potential to bring irritation, rebellion and violence. But their high-spirited, lusty and outgoing natures complement each other to bring positive change, adventure and excitement.
In a similar way, the negative influences of Mercury conjunct Neptune and Venus conjunction Saturn are alleviated by the sextile aspects that link them.
This means the incredible amount of energy created by Regulus, the full moon and the three planetary conjunctions, combine in a complementary way that is more harmonious, safe and user-friendly than each on its own.
So full moon February 2018 brings exciting opportunities that will make you feel more alive and free. Many separate things which have confused, scared or depressed you will seem to come together and make sense. It should restore your faith that God, or the Universe, does have a plan for you.

I wanted a President’s Day poem but have you ever tried to find a decent President’s Poem? I can tell you, they don’t exist. So I opted to go with something witchy.
We sing and dance and hold our rites,
We live and love together.
We go sky-clad or wear our outer robes
If it is chilling weather.
About the altar we do dance;
We praise The Gods
We love and ever do, we give
Our thanks to the sun.
And moon above, We are The Craft;
Love The Craft; We are Witches All.
Join us.. In Our Circle For We Are Witches All.
Walk into our Circle and feel the love Bound,
And Meet The Lord and Lady who guide us in our Rounds;
” An’ Harm None, Do What Thou Wilt.”
It is The Wiccan Rede.
We fear no foe for love we show,
In thought and also Deed.
Our words of thanks, our songs of praise,
We offer them in pray’r.
We sing their praise, we ask their help;
We know that they are there.
Good morning, my sweets! It is Monday, February 18th, Presidents’ Day! Since it is Monday morning, I will ask you, do you want the good news first or the bad news first? Really there is no bad news, basically everything is lovely and I have a lot of thank you notes to write. Even though we have received a lot of donations, we are still $100 short on helping the two elderly Pagan sisters out I told you about yesterday. We are close enough to pay their entire electricity bill through the month of March. I figure if we get it paid through March, warmer months will be here and their light bill will not be that outrageous. I am hoping and praying with all my heart that the light company is closed today so we can come up with the rest of the money to pay these lovely ladies’ bill. So you will have to forgive me today, I think most of you know me well enough, that you know when I get on a certain topic, I am worse than a dog with a bone. With that said, after each post today will be a donate button to finish out the remaining balance of these ladies’ light bill. I also figure that if we are able to pay their light bill through March that they will have enough income to buy groceries with. That is one worry that is always on my mind with these two women, that they have enough to eat. I know when people get older they forget to eat at times or don’t have the money to buy the food needed because of medicine. We get their light bill paid, I know they will have the money themselves to at least feed themselves. That will be one worry off my mind anyway. Like I said, please forgive but I am that dog after the bone, there will be donate buttons on each post today. I figure there might still be some that would like to donate but didn’t have the funds or know where to donate at. Today, it will be easily accessible. Thank you to all of you who have donated so far, it means the world to me and I know it will certainly mean the world to these two sisters.
I was talking to Lady Beltane this morning. She called to see if I had needed the funds raised yet for the two sisters. We got to talking and after we hung up, I got angry. Don’t get me wrong, it was not at Lady B at all, it was at the light company. I honestly believe by the time this whole mess is over with I will be in jail. I mean seriously the more I think about it, the madder I get. I told you I looked up the laws in regards to disconnecting people’s lights. I read them to the supervisor and that b*tch told me, “they didn’t matter to them, they were a Co-Op and they could do what they wanted.” Just who the heck do these people think they are. Seriously, they are above the law. I don’t think so and I be darned if they aren’t going to find that out. I wrote the Country Judge, the County Attorney and the Commonwealth of Kentucky’s Attorney General in regards to this matter. I told them that we have a Co-Op that thinks the law does not apply to them. I have already heard back from the State’s Attorney. He was very curious as to why the laws wouldn’t apply to this power company. He gave me his word that he would contact them. What the outcome will be who knows. Hell, they might come out and cut our power off next for making such a stink. But I really don’t care. If the power company thinks it is above the law then I seriously believe it should be taken down a notch or two. I plan on going to their next meeting since I am a member and supposedly part owner in the company. That is the way the Co-Ops work around here. You live in the area, you are a member(whether you like it or not) and part owner. Another topic I am going to bring up is as members we are suppose to get a check from the Co-Op every year. This check is suppose to be dividends the company has earned throughout the year. They are suppose to given its members a share of those dividends by check. I talked to several of our neighbors out here and even the Post Master and asked them if they had ever received a check from the power company. Their answer was the same as ours, NO! Half of them didn’t even know we were suppose to receive a check from the power company. Guess what, those people want to know where those checks are and they have also agreed to go to the meeting with me. It ought to be one heck of a meeting. As we like to say around here, “the fur is goin’ fly.”
The very idea of shutting off two elder women’s power in the middle of Winter has got my dandruff up bad. As if I need anything else to get my dandruff up these days. All I would like to see us do is raise the last $100 so we can get these dear ladies power bill paid through March. Then I will leave you alone, I promise. I guess I have been calling these ladies by the wrong name, they are Elders in our Pagan community. As Elders, I know personally, I feel like I owe them something. They have did so much for the local community during their lifetime. I guess knowing them personally even makes it more important to me that we try to help them as best we can.
When you see the donation button, please don’t get angry with me or upset. I just feel obligated to do something for these women. They have been a mentor to me and numerous other witches over the years. They have been a great asset to the Pagan community and to see them go without heat, I can’t stomach the thought. They have done so much and asked for so little. I believe we should treat our Elders with respect and honor them as they should be. We owe them so much. I know personally, I have learned a great deal from these two Elders. I would like to try and pay them back anyway I can.
Now if I don’t stop talking, we won’t get anything done today. I just wanted to tell you the good news and also let you know why you would be seeing donate buttons today. We are so close and like that old dog with a bone, I can’t quit till I have that bone. Now I am off to work.
Happy President’s Day, my precious family,
Love ya,
Lady A
Well had you thought we had run off and left the country? No, you ain’t that lucky, lol! It has been a wild couple of days, I can say that. There were suppose to be posted on here daily so you would know the site was still alive but…..oh, well, here I go back to the old saying, “when the cat’s away, the mice will play.” Since I saw there hadn’t been any posts on the site in the last few days, I decided to take a break from building our new store and come and aggravate y’all for a bit, lucky, lucky, lucky! Your luck has never been so good has it.
As I stated the last few days have been rather wild and that is putting it mildly. I am sure I have mentioned it before but for those of you who are new here, I will mention it again. The WOTC is not only active on-line it is active off-line as well. We help out local food banks, help the Elderly with some of their expenses throughout the money(since they are on limited incomes) and we still take in a stray or wild animals on occasions. I am an animal lover, can’t help myself when we get one of those calls. A call that an animal is in distress or going to be shot if something isn’t don’t with it, I am Johnny-on-the-spot. But that is just a few of the things we do off-line.
I have my reasons for bringing up some of the things we do off-line because of a phone call I received Thursday. It was a phone call from two local elderly sisters who are witches themselves. We have helped them out off and on when they needed it. They called Friday because they needed our help. Even though our funds are gone and I mean, gone, gone. I couldn’t refuse them and I told them I would see what I could do for them. Neither one of the sisters have ever married, they only have each other, no family left. They feel like I am their family because when my mother was alive I remember us stopping by to visit them on our way to town. They were quite a bit younger than my mother but they were witches so she made a point of visiting them when she could. The live on the other side of county from where we are now. I can still remember going to their house. On both sides of the gravel road leading to their house was nothing put trees. Thick trees, in fact, it looked like a forest with a path cut through it. Then the house was a house built out of wood. Honestly it looked like the house from Hansel and Gretel, seriously. The only difference the house from the fairy tale was in much better shape. I took them some groceries recently and it still looks the same except it had a few boards that had come loose. I had Lord M with me and he fixed the boards for the sisters. You get the idea, these sisters do not have much money coming in at all and are basically just surviving day to day,
Now back to the phone call, one of the sister (Mildred) called and asked if we could talk for a minute. I told her sure anytime, she knew that. She was upset and I could tell that. I was afraid something had happened to her sister but thankfully that wasn’t the case. She was upset because she had received a $538.00 electricity bill, I told her I didn’t doubt it because our bill had been outrageous this month. She told me that they didn’t have the money to pay it. I asked her if she had talked to the light company and she said no. I told her to give me a minute and I would call them and see what I could do. I called the electric company, which by the way is a Co-Op. A Co-Op is suppose to be owned by its members and the members are suppose to have some rights and say so in how it is run. I talked to one of the ladies there and she was just down right rude. She told me that the sisters would have to pay the full amount of the bill or have their power cut off. It is in the low 20’s and they are going to cut off two elderly ladies’ power. Really? I asked to talk to a supervisor. The supervisor was a little nicer. She asked me how much could they pay that day and then call back and make payment arrangements before the next disconnect notice came due. Well I told her I could pay $50.00 on it. That was all I had and I gladly did it. The supervisor made a note on their account that payment arrangements would follow. I called the sisters back and told them what I had done. They were delighted. I told them to be sure to call back before the disconnect notice was due to make payment arrangements or else they would be out to cut them off. Well they called back to make the arrangements and I got another phone call. Mildred was upset to no end. She told me the lady told her that she had to pay $180.00 that day and then the remaining balance would be stretched out to the 28th of this month. Of course, the poor sisters did not have the money nor did I.
After I talked to Mildred, I called the power company. By this time, I was mad as an old wet hen. I had already pulled up the law in regards to utilities company disconnecting people in the Winter months. The law states that no one can be disconnected between the Winter months of November through February of each year. It also went on to state that if a person in the household was disabled, elderly or needed the electricity for live saving equipment then the power could not be cut off either. I informed the supervisor of this and she said since they were a Co-Op they could do as they pleased. The law didn’t apply to them. Which, of course, we had a hardy disagreement over that. I asked them when the next Co-Op meeting was and I would be there with bells on. I also wrote the County representative over this matter but I have not heard back from him yet. It didn’t matter what I had to say to this woman, she told me they either pay the bill or else they would be disconnected.
Now can you imagine that? Two elderly sisters, one 82 and the 84, fragile and thin, living in a 100 year old house(which has cracks everywhere you look) getting their power shut off? I could not believe the cruelty or inhumane treatment coming from this supervisor or the electric company. What it all boils down too, is that if these ladies do not come up with the money to pay their power bill, they will be disconnected probably either Monday or Tuesday. We are flat broke or else I wouldn’t have been beating my brains out trying to rebuild the store. I need your help, these sisters need your help. It would absolutely kill me to think that they got their power cut off. They wouldn’t leave their home to save them. They would stay there and try to survive. Survive they wouldn’t, they would freeze to death. I can’t let that happen. I am asking that you help me by assisting them in trying to pay their power bill, Later on, when we get back on our feet, we plan on insulating the house for them but right now we have to worry about the power being cut off. I am not asking for myself but I am asking for these dear, sweet old ladies. If you could meet them you would fall in love with them. Just listening to their stories, then learning witchcraft from them and just basically stories about the old days. They are wonderful, beautiful human beings and for the power company to do this is just wrong. I plan on going to the Co-Op meeting and I also plan on pursuing this at every level of government in this town. This treatment of the elderly is oh, so wrong and I plan on making a huge stink about it. But right now, we have no choice but to try to pay the bill.
I said I would never beg you for money. I am not begging for myself, I am begging for these two wonderful ladies. Will you please help me raise the money to keep their power from being shut-off. It is the middle of Winter, they need their heat to survive. They still have many years ahead of them and to think of them freezing to death is killing me. I am asking for your help in assisting them to keep their power on. I know it is a hard time for everyone but we can’t let our Elderly be treated like this. Hell, they will take a dog in off the streets but they won’t keep our elderly warm by just leaving their heat on. It is pathetic. These sisters desperately need your help. If they knew I was telling their story, they would be mad as heck at me. They are proud women and they don’t like asking for a hand out. I told them it wouldn’t be a hand out but a hand up. They had did so much for the Pagan community around here, I feel that it is only right that we try to help them. No matter what you can give, it all adds up and hopefully we will be able to keep their power on during these cold days ahead.
Thank you so very much,
Lady of the Abyss
| As we all get older in the Pagan Community, it is easy to get confused about how we should present ourselves. We’re unsure as we try to be nice and harmonize with the fashions that younger members of our community have adopted.
So I’ve made a sincere study of the situation and here are the results. Despite what you may have seen on the streets or at Pagan gatherings, the following combinations do not go together and thus should be avoided:
Please keep these basic guidelines foremost in your mind when you shop. |

Good luck and success are possible. Pleasure is likely.
Astrological Influence

Pisces brings intelligence and perception to the forefront. This may be a time to rely more on serendipity than cold, hard facts.

The Rings
Keywords: Love, relationships.
Meanings: The Rings is the rune of love and when it is the leading stone, it is a positive answer to your question. It is very much a rune of relationship and can indicate engagement, marriage or a new/renewed relationship. It can also indicate the need for a fresh approach to an existing relationship.
The Hierophant represents the protector of a culture’s heritage and traditions. His purpose is to defend and teach the established ways and beliefs a group embraces. He is inherently conventional and a true believer in the power of the group. He loves the structure of the group and its values. It is the task of The Hierophant to bring new members into the group—to prepare the uninitiated to take their rightful place in his culture. In this sense he is very much like a teacher or a priest. He also acts as the repository of his group’s history. The Hierophant is certainly not one to buck proper authority. However, he is staunch and worthy defender of the tried and true. He represents the positive aspects of conformity.
The Magus is the physical embodiment of decisive action based upon knowledge and aimed squarely at specific goals. While firmly set in the material world, he none-the-less has a powerful spiritual connection as well. His knowledge, wisdom and skill are all encompassing. He is complete. His power as a creator is unmatched on our earthly plane. He is self-aware and unafraid to act. His enormous strength gives him the freedom to act as he chooses. However, responsibility comes with that freedom. Because he is not bound to the restraints of others he must choose how to act. The question that always lies before him is should he act morally, or forsake ethics for personal gain.
The Hanged Man is the most enigmatic card of the Tarot. Even Tarot giants like Waite, Crowley and Levi had trouble deciphering The Hanged Man’s true meaning. Generally The Hanged Man is thought to represent the value of surrender and selfless acts. The Hanged Man embodies the notion that sometimes to lose is to win. Unlike the aggressive Chariot, The Hanged Man creates his fate through inaction and accepts his fortune passively, without resistance. He does not struggle to control the path his life takes, but rather allows events to sweep him where they will, even if he is called upon to sacrifice himself. He is so at ease with the Fate the Universe chose for him that even hanging upside down from a tree does not ruffle his inner peace.
The Empress is “The Earth Mother” of the Tarot. She embodies all that is nurturing, clean and wholesome. Her powers resonate from her drive to create and care for life on a grand scale. She is in tune with Nature’s rhythm and realizes that life’s most pleasurable moments often stem from the simplest things. She is not afraid to enjoy herself–to let loose—to the point of being lavish. Abundance and luxury are important to her. The Empress is completely comfortable with her femininity and her sexuality. She is sensual, earthy, generous, and likes the good life. Still, her driving force is a need to create and nurture, and fulfilling this need overrides everything else.

THOSE BORN ON the Aquarius-Pisces cusp are known the natural psychics of the zodiac.
Loved for their compassionate, understanding, and tolerant traits, Aquarian-Pisces tend to have more extroverted personalities than you might imagine for those with such sensitive souls. Being around people can rejuvenate an Aquarius-Pisces, give them a sense of purpose, and relieve stress.
The only problem? This innate desire is often coupled with a sense of isolation … and the feeling of being misunderstood.
Though they are goal-oriented, those who embody the Aquarius–Pisces cusp are major procrastinators. Sometimes this procrastination is built-in, given the innate disorganization that disrupts any organic flow that might have carried them to the finish line. But who has time for organizing things when your mind is filled with so many great ideas? There is so much creative energy to this cusp, so much compassion and emotion, that the chores that make daily life run smoothly can easily fall to the wayside.
If you are dually ruled by both Uranus and Neptune, know this: You are loved. You are amazing. You are brilliant, creative, and highly intelligent. You might feel at times that people just don’t GET you. But, hear this: People don’t need to get you. You get them. And that’s your greatest strength.
And if you know a person born on the Aquarius-Pisces cusp, tell them this: You love the way their mind works. You love the way they see the world, and you are grateful to be able to be a part of theirs. Let them know they are seen.
IF YOU ARE BORN ON FEBRUARY 17, you are hot-blooded and yes, my dear Aquarius, you are weird and wonderful! It’s not because of your out-going personality, or that you do not care for people knowing your business. It is not even that you prefer to be a loner. You like being by yourself.
People with a February 17 birthday are private and expect people to respect your wishes. (Call before you come as intrusive people are turn-offs for Aquarians.) It is because, Aquarius, you get in a mood and suddenly, your word becomes questionable.
As your birthday horoscope profile shows, you become rebellious, hurtful and angry, almost to the point of doing physical harm to someone. If not this, then you are keeping to yourself. You do not answer phone calls or return messages.
February 17 Aquarius, you can be stubborn and sometimes, you are just unstable. You need not act on your impulses all the time. It is in you. Be strong. Because of this, you do not make friends right away, or at least any real friends. You want them to shed their quandaries but will not allow yourself to be seen as human.
On the surface, many that seek your companionship are willing participants in the dating game until they find out that you value your freedom more than you appreciate them. Aquarians born on February 17 are usually best compatible with someone much like themselves.
You don’t have to work as hard with two Aquarians. You are mirroring so, figuring out where your weakness is or where your strengths are, is easy.
On the other side, Aquarius, you are a do-gooder. The Aquarius birthday analysisfor those born on February 17 shows you are proud humanitarians. You will do something beneficial that will change the conditions of people for the better. You know how to get down to the root of a problem, hear both sides and draw your conclusion before making a decision.
Some of your efforts may be idiosyncratic so expect a negative response or two. That is when you pull your pants up and dig deeper. People should respect your hard honesty. After all, you get the job done.
The February 17 birthday person is full of ideas, and your results are prosperous. What is wonderful about you Aquarius is that you are intelligent, rational, and down-to-earth. Those born on this day are Aquarians that can be trusted. You are always looking for new ways to make money. You have a progressive way of thinking. Aquarians are sophisticated people.
As the February birthday zodiac sign, you will be driven like the wind. Some people never change how their surroundings look. Not you, Aquarians live for a change. You also have a flair that is different from most of ours. It is a drastic change from shopping at Gap.
You have invented your style, which shows your personality off. You love to mix and match the oddest of things. The proof is in your decorator’s tips complete with all the latest commodities. Innovative and unique ideas impress you.
You are advised to stay on the grind and stay away from quick loan services. Avoid the stress so you won’t suffer from headaches and experience sleepless nights.
Aquarians, you need to take good care of your health. You have an appreciation for alcohol. You need to be careful with that especially since you are prone to having some mysterious accidents, some of which can be downright funny stories.
Avoid shopping or important decisions from 9 AM to 11 AM EST today (6 AM to 8 AM PST). After that, the Moon moves from Cancer into Leo.
You are restless for change and you want to have a good time! One of the things that might make this day interesting is you will meet someone new and different. This person might be avant-garde or bohemian. In fact, this person might be someone you already know! (Oh wow.) Ken?
This is an unpredictable day. Things are unpredictable on the home front especially dealing with authority figures like parents. Be ready for anything. If you are caught off guard by unexpected changes – never underestimate the power of courtesy. Be cool.
You are very curious about things today. (Admittedly, you are a curious person every day of the week. “Look – a bright shiny object!”) But today is different. Someone might introduce you to unusual ideas or different ways of thinking. Very thought provoking.
Something to do with money, resources, the wealth of your partner, or shared property might be surprising today. When it comes to money, you don’t like surprises. You like to plan for a rainy day and you watch your pennies. Today’s a good day to keep your eyes open.
The Moon is in your sign today, which makes you a bit more emotional than usual. However, you are probably reacting to what someone else is doing – a partner or close friend, and it is something you didn’t foresee at all. Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!
New technology might be introduced to where you work today because something unexpected will greet you. It might be perplexing or it might be liberating. Keep an open mind — but not so open that everything falls out.
A surprise invitation to a social event might delight you today. Admittedly, a scheduled event might be cancelled. Your kids might also surprise you in some way today. Expect to have a vigourous discussion with a female friend. But on the whole, this is a fun-loving day!
People notice you today, even though your primary focus is to cocoon at home and get away from all this. Mars opposite your sign makes you feel that others are annoying – and they probably are. Look around you because life is quite beautiful. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
You want to do something different today because you’ve had enough of the same old, same old. Ideally, it would be nice to travel. After all, you are the traveller of the zodiac. But if you can’t travel, you can at least explore your own backyard. Try it.
You might see new ways to earn money today or to make a little on the side. Or possibly, you will spot something that you want to impulsively buy because it’s unusual. Check all financial deals very carefully because things are unpredictable today.
You’re restless today. You’re full of excitement because you are planning something or you’re hoping for something to happen. This is the kind of day where you can go with your impulses to see where they lead you. Expect a miracle!
It’s Sunday and you want the day off. Have another cup of coffee and read your newspaper or do the crossword so you can relax. You need a break today. Give yourself some time off for good behaviour. You deserve it.
Actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt (1981) shares your birthday today. You are hard working and ambitious. You handle problems with dignity and strength. This year hard work and effort pay will pay off. Start by simplifying your life so you can build solid foundations. Focus your energy in one direction. Physical exercise will be important this year. Explore yoga, martial arts or jogging — any physical discipline that you enjoy.
