It’s going to be an intense Valentine’s Day, lovers. Love goddess Venus is holding hands with Lord of the Underworld, Pluto. You’d think this might soften Pluto’s edges but no, he’s casting a few vicious glances to the sensitive Cancer Moon and impetuous Jupiter in Aries.
Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn: you’re feeling waves of empowerment crashing into alternate waves of powerlessness. It’s all a matter of perspective. If you’re feeling somewhat battered by the Universe, it may help you to reframe your experiences and to remember that taking hits from Life is a woefully universal experience. The details of how vary from one person to the next. But the price we pay for loving others is the risk of losing them. This is not personal; it’s a painful fact of life. And now that Chiron has swum into Pisces, there’s no room for victim mentalities. That message may especially hit home for all of the mutable signs: Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces.
One thing is clear: everyone wants a big piece of whatever Cupid’s giving out —beyond the requisite hearts and flowers. Feelings have great depth now, with a reigning need to feel truly heard and understood. There’s an enormous influx of energy to open hearts wider than ever. Let this be, and try not to resort to wearing your intellectual armor as a cover for any vulnerable feelings that may surface. True love bypasses all of your thinking processes, and comes in through a most tender heart.
