Celebrating Spirituality 365 Days A Year – Quirinalia and The Feast of Fools

Witchy Cat Graphics & Comments

February 17th

Quirinalia and The Feast of Fools

Quirinalia was a first fruits festival that honored Quirinus, the name given by the Romans to the deified Romulus. As a divinity, Quirinus ranked as one of Rome’s most important patrons, along with Mars, Jupiter and Juno.

Early Rome was divided into 30 curiae, each of which had its own day in February for the performing of the Fornacalia, or first-fruits offering to Ceres of toasted emmer-wheat. As the city expanded, the curiae were displaced by the new divisions known as “tibus.” As a result, many people did not know which curiae they belonged to. Because of the confusion they were allowed to make the sacrifice on the Quirinalia, which came to be called “The Feast of Fools.”

Your Daily Horoscopes for Friday, February 14th

Romance takes center stage today, but not just because it’s Valentine’s Day. The dramatic Leo Full Moon at 6:53 pm EST focuses our attention on issues of the heart. But the conceptual Aquarius Sun shifts the spotlight from personal love to a more social context. A lunar square to stern Saturn can harden our feelings and make us question relationships in general. Thankfully, the Sun’s trine to superhero Mars could save the day with a happy ending.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You have high hopes and are willing to take a risk to fulfill your heart’s wishes today. You might not want to take no for an answer because the exuberant Leo Full Moon in your 5th House of Romance encourages you to expect too much from love. Tempering your dreams with a bit of realism may be enough to prevent disillusionment in relationships. Persistence may work in your favor now as long as you remember to be sensitive to the feelings of others.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

Although jumping on a plane might not be possible now, you are still tempted to escape by going somewhere far away in your mind. But this is a time to be practical, not dreamy when it comes to what really matters. The Leo Full Moon in your 4th House of Roots is a reflector that shines a bright light on family issues. Fantasies only distract you from the real love that could be found at home. Real emotional comfort is closer than you think.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

You have a few tricks up your sleeve today when it comes to expressing your attraction to someone special. The playful Leo Full Moon highlights your 3rd House of Communication, inspiring you to take a chance when it comes to love. However, you could overdo it by getting carried away with your feelings. Being confident is one thing, but too much bravado on your part might spell an early end to your evening. Remember, a healthy interaction is a two-way street so be willing to receive as well as you give.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

There could be an upcoming change in your income status or, perhaps, a shift in a business partnership. The bright Leo Full Moon illuminates your 2nd House of Money, so you might be more concerned with the bottom line than you are with romance now. Nevertheless, look at everything in a broader context. Practice compassion for others who may be experiencing uncertain times, too. A quick reality check today will give you a more balanced perspective; money can’t buy you love.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You may need to show a bit of caution in the romance department today, even if you know exactly what you want. The melodramatic Leo Full Moon floods your 1st House of Personality, possibly stressing your relationships and temporarily turning your life inside out. You could become overly defensive if someone stands in your way, so remind yourself that it’s not necessary to express everything you feel. Waiting until tomorrow before saying what’s on your mind will probably be better off for everyone involved.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You might feel invisible today, especially if you think that someone special isn’t taking notice of you. Don’t fight the natural flow of energy as the Leo Full Moon illuminates your 12th House of Privacy, hiding your emotions from view. Nevertheless, your actions will still have the impact you want. Save the flowery speeches and love letters for some other time. Just let behavior do its magic. Even the most subtle gestures will have positive impact if your heart is in the right place.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You might decide to play it low key today and keep your personal feelings to yourself. However, you expressive Leo Moon falls in your 11th House of Social Networking, encouraging you to get involved with a group activity. Although you might resist at first, you’re like to find pleasure in your participation once you overcome your initial anxiety. Let go of your personal desires and melt into the group experience for now. Surprisingly, you can derive a great deal of emotional satisfaction by being part of something larger than yourself.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

People are likely to stand up and take notice of you today, but the recognition you receive may be professional rather than personal. Fortunately, the theatrical Leo Full Moon brightens your 10th House of Public Status, empowering you to reveal your feelings to someone special. You’re at the top of your game now and it’s rather easy for you to shift the focus from business to pleasure if you are romantically inclined. Don’t be afraid to make your move as long as you pay careful attention to the reactions you receive.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You might be dreaming of a trip with your partner or special friend, but travel plans could require extra attention today as circumstances change. Even the simplest of dinner plans may have to be modified at the last minute. Ultimately, the bold Leo Full Moon in your 9th House of Adventure reminds you to focus on your personal needs and do whatever it takes to reach your destination. The details may be unstable, but don’t lose sight of your goal. Following your bliss sometimes requires perseverance and hard work.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You may have to revisit a financial decision today that could alter you evening plans. Instead of making a unilateral decision, it’s smarter to check in with your friend or partner. It could take courage on your part to reveal your vulnerability, especially with the proud Leo Full Moon falling in your 8th House of Deep Sharing. Don’t slip into the trap of pretending that everything is fine if it’s not. Taking a risk and sharing your concerns could be the key to increased intimacy.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Don’t focus on your shortcomings today, especially if you’re worried that someone doesn’t like you as much as you like him or her. Today’s emotional Leo Full Moon in your 7th House of Relationships is opposite the Sun in your cerebral sign, reminding you of the sharp contrast between your subjective feelings and objective reality. Your performance might fall short of your expectations, but you may be judging yourself harsher than anyone else does. Simply doing the best you can will likely be more than enough.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Although someone you love might rain on your parade today, your positive attitude may be enough to chase the bad emotional weather away. However, you won’t find your way back to the sunny side of the street unless you take a chance and give your imagination free rein to explore a new avenues of expression. The Leo Full Moon is lighting up your 6th House of Details, so paying attention to the little things can make the difference between failure and success. A bit of forethought and follow-through goes a long way.

Your Ancient Symbol Card for Feb. 9th is Chance

Your Ancient Symbol Card for Today

Chance

The Chance card denotes a period in which taking risks may produce positive results. This doesn’t mean head off to a casino with your life’s savings! What is suggested is that you should make gains by taking a well calculated risk. For the power of Chance to be fully realized it is essential that you pick your risk carefully, move forward with conviction, and above all else don’t get greedy!

As a daily card, Chance implies you are currently in a place where taking a chance is likely to produce substantial rewards. In other words, take a few calculated steps out on the proverbial limb, but remember if you take it too far you are likely to lose all that you gain and possibly more.

Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, February 4th

We are eager to start something today, but getting a project off the ground may be more challenging than we expect. Although the enthusiastic Aries Moon strikes a background note of enterprising spirit coupled with impulsive behavior, we could run into complications from stressful lunar alignments with naysaying Saturn and go-for-it Mars. Additionally, confusion is in the air as cerebral Mercury prepares to turn retrograde on Thursday.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You are driven by your irrepressible emotions today, yet you can easily get in your own way if you push too hard. Reality is trying to tell you something now, but it may be nearly impossible to decipher the message. Observe the dynamics of this ongoing dance; if your efforts meet resistance, don’t waste too much energy trying to overpower the obstacles. Instead, go to the source of your feelings; you should start to make progress again once you take the time to figure out what you really want.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

A recent change of plans might be a bit unnerving since you often prefer the comfort of the status quo over the uncertainty of the unknown. Circumstances have quieted down enough now for you to look at where you are going and to decide whether or not you really want to head off in this direction. Reassess your long-term goals, but allow current events to pull you back into present time where you are needed. Acting in a responsible manner doesn’t need to prevent you from dreaming about the future.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

You’re ready to take a major step forward in your current effort to catch up on backlogged communication. However, you could run into trouble immediately if reality has a different idea about how you should spend your day. The tricky part is that you may not have enough time to avoid what’s coming your way, for the incoming curve balls are so unexpected. Thankfully, letting go of control at just the right moment makes life more enjoyable now. You can always return to your previous plans later in the week.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

You want to believe that it’s sufficient to just change your attitude and circumstances will respond accordingly, especially if you need some recovery time from a recent clash with reality. Going home, getting cozy and curling up with a good book and a cup of tea sounds like a perfect solution to all that ails you today. Nevertheless, you must take care of business first if others are depending on you. Balancing inner and outer needs makes the most sense in the long run.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You are all fired up and it’s challenging to talk yourself down from the ledge of enthusiasm today. Unfortunately, everything could grow more complicated than you wish, especially if you overlook a minor detail that comes back to haunt you. Or maybe someone is resisting your plans now, even if they won’t tell you directly. Address any issues that surface since they will only get harder to resolve as the days go by. Slow down and get things right so you don’t have to redo them later on.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Your sense of enthusiasm is often powered by your highly functioning analytical mind, which can see every little flaw, no matter how tiny it may be now. Others might be overwhelmed by so many details, but your brain is built for this type of situation. This is your chance to shine; let your associates lean on you for your expertise. Tell yourself that you are up for any challenge today. You can always rest in a day or two after your work is done.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

No matter how hard you try, it still may be tricky to find a point of balance today. Intellectually, you know what you must do and you’re eager to head off in that direction. But others might believe that you should be embarking on a completely different path. Although you would like to take every point of view into account, it’s simply impossible to do so. Instead, be as considerate as possible to all involved. Nevertheless, if you cannot please everyone, at least be true to yourself.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Life might be easier sometimes if only you could turn off your intense emotions and your incisive powers of perception. But, of course, you can’t. Anyway, it wouldn’t be like you to just gloss over the hidden reality of a situation, even if people around you find it difficult to face the gory details. Thankfully, you don’t have to pretend to live up to anyone else’s expectations if you set clear boundaries today. It’s easier to honor your emotions if you create enough room to contain them when they become too extreme for others to handle.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Staying on the sunny side of the street is difficult today if your plans run into resistance from others. Unfortunately, no matter how much you focus on your own intentions now, other people may still rain on your parade. Nevertheless, don’t waste energy trying to outrun an emotional storm or to push away the clouds of doubt. The current turmoil won’t last, but, thankfully, your faith will.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You are truly amazing to watch once you make up your mind to overcome a particular obstacle. When others feel the pressure of circumstances building, they might collapse under the weight of responsibility. However, you Goats love to strategize how to use the current events as opportunities to improve your situation. Even if there are some minor speed bumps in the road now, this is an advantageous time to apply yourself diligently toward reaching your goals.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

There is an uneven progression to your accomplishments today. You might even get yourself all worked up now, only to initiate action and then discover that you wasted precious time running off in the wrong direction. Luckily, you can be very productive if you delay your response in order to avoid making too many false starts. Take a deep breath and visualize crossing the finish line; slow and steady wins the race.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You may intuitively sense that big changes are moving slowly toward you. In the meantime, you have plenty to do to fend off more immediate opposition. The problem is that it’s difficult to find the real source of the blockages you now face. Even if the resistance is a direct manifestation of your own imagination, it can still be discouraging. Don’t give up until you accomplish what you set out to do. Your success depends upon your unwavering belief in yourself.

Your Daily Cosmic Calendar for February 4th

Prepare yourself for a momentous day across the board. Primary partnerships may see some new wrinkles and nerves can be frayed as Jupiter in Cancer opposes Pluto in Capricorn at 1:17AM. Don’t make any difficult situations more stressful by trying to throw your weight around or taking a partner for granted. Every act of kindness is a step in the right direction.  Mercury enters compassionate, empathic and psychic Pisces at 6:30AM — although this Messenger of the Gods planet is also slowing down in motion as it nears a three-week reversal starting on Thursday Feb. 6. The Moon in Aquarius is in void mode starting at 8:46AM and lasting 11 hours until 7:46PM when the lunar orb enters Pisces.  In the meantime, Venus — which began a retrograde cycle on December 21, 2013 at 29 degrees of Capricorn — will make a station and turn direct at 12:50PM (activating 14 degrees of Capricorn). [Venus will remain in forward motion until July 25, 2015 when it will go retrograde again at 1 degree of Virgo — a reversal lasting 44 days until September 6, 2015 when it returns to direct motion at 15 degrees of Leo.] Today, all Venus themes — love and romance, business deals and opportunities, social activities, the fine and graphic arts, circles of friendship, your antenna of feelings and sensations, essential values to live by — are accentuated not only at the exact time of the shift, but throughout the entire 24-hour time-period.  Be ready for some celestial shenanigans this evening when the Sun makes an off-kilter, 150-degree tie with Jupiter (8:06PM). When the two largest cosmic bodies form one of these alignments, large-scale plans can often go awry or lose their traction. While a Moon-Mercury conjunction in Pisces (8:40PM) gives communications and correspondence a temporary boost, the red planet Mars in parallel with the Moon (11:09PM) reminds you to be extra sensitive to loved ones needing support rather than criticism. [Note to readers: All times are calculated for Pacific Standard Time. Be sure to adjust all times according to your own local time so the alignments noted above will be exact for your location.]

We are inspired to put our best foot forward today and live our lives to the fullest potential. Normally, we become more upbeat when the Moon visits adventurous Sagittarius. We might even try to sidestep uncomfortable details in favor of considering the overall picture. Fortunately, the Moon’s cooperative sextiles to superhero Mars and messenger Mercury help us to follow through on the conversations we start, even if we run into disagreements.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

On the surface it seems as if everything is coming up roses today, but there is more going on than is apparent. It’s great that you have so much happening within the realms of your imagination now. Your dreams are motivational, as long as you continue to clearly distinguish between reality and fantasy. Others see you as competent and they believe your actions are straightforward, but you may be more uncertain than anyone realizes. Acknowledge your true feelings, but don’t let them impede your progress.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

Although there may be a lot to finish at work today, you are determined to deliver on your promises. Push as hard as you can early in the day, since you might grow weary earlier than you expect. Fortunately, you’re capable of handling everything that’s thrown at you now, even if you inadvertently get involved in more than you should. But remember to take some time off once you complete your tasks; being extra nice to yourself this evening is a just reward for a job well done.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

An angel may fly to your rescue today, whether you need the assistance or not. But in any case, accepting help is wise because it can deepen the bond of friendship. Don’t worry if another person’s involvement slightly reduces your efficiency. Ultimately, it’s not about increasing your production now; it’s about improving your relationships. Learning to graciously receive is a gift in itself.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Performing your job well feels exceptionally satisfying today. You don’t even need acknowledgment from others; the fruit of your labor is reward enough for you now. Nevertheless, fulfillment may be elusive if you think that you should be pursuing a different line of work. Fortunately, opportunities are lurking right in front of your nose, and if you are clever enough you could turn one of them into a new direction in your current career.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Although you could sail through the day with a smile on your face, it’s more productive to channel your positive attitude into a creative endeavor. Either way, it’s an uplifting time, but you might as well have something to show off when all is said and done. However, don’t isolate yourself from everyone else; collaborating with others now can open doors to a colorful new world.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You can’t approach your work in the same manner as you did last week because something has changed and the old methods are not as effective anymore. Thankfully, you could become inspired and invent an entirely new and original way of doing your job. Don’t worry if your idea is the best one or not. For now, just trying something different may be enough to break the ice and stir the energy in a positive direction.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You might experience an exciting burst of energy today, but you have to take a risk in order to make the most of it. It’s crucial to keep yourself motivated, for if you become lazy, you could miss a significant opportunity. Forget about taking the tried and true path to success now. Carpediem; if you want to accomplish anything extraordinary, you must set your comfort aside, step out of the box and do something you’ve never done before.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

This could be a much better day than you anticipate as something especially nice comes your way. Of course, any unexpected pleasant experience would be welcome, but finding a bargain, receiving a cash windfall or making a new friend positively impacts your life. However, you must be in a receptive frame of mind now or the good news might pass you by unnoticed. Adopting a grateful attitude invites more blessings into your world.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Your life is overflowing with an array of wonderful possibilities now. However, your excitement won’t automatically manifest tangible results unless you set the stage for their expression by establishing goals and working hard to achieve them. Your acts of generosity will be returned, but probably not quite as you expect. Demonstrate your strength of character by being open to change.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You woke up with a happy song in your head today, but oddly enough it’s challenging to put your finger on the source of your optimism. It’s as if you know something awesome is going to happen, but you don’t know what it is or why you are so sure of it. Don’t waste a lot of time trying to deconstruct your instincts now; instead, just act as if your hunch is correct and keep singing. Your faith may be enough to alter your future in a positive manner.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Your social calendar might light up today, since the Moon is now visiting your 11th House of Friends and Community. Although the Moon’s journey doesn’t actually increase your popularity, you don’t have to try so hard to be included in every fun activity. You could exude more charisma than you realize now and your assertive style might even seem aggressive unless you consciously tone down your approach. Enjoy the camaraderie but be sure to share the spotlight to keep everyone happy.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Your outward behavior doesn’t tell the whole story now, since your actions seem to be all about your career.
