Lunar Day 22
Different traditions completely disagree on how to treat this day. The European tradition takes it as particularly inauspicious, but suggests that those who were born on this day have the potential to become good people. The Vedic tradition considers it auspicious for trips and transport, whilst Globa recommends it as a day to study sciences, and master a specific subject.
Vronsky:
The day is unfavourable and unsuccessful for beginnings of various activities. A child born on this day will be a good, active person and will live to a very old age. For the one who falls ill on this day the illness can become dangerous. Dreams will be fulfilled.
Globa:
Symbol — the elephant. Wisdom, firmness, the Universal Law, hidden knowledge, informational field. The day for achieving a goal, studying sciences, trades, understanding one's own roots. One should be finding out the future, meditating, teaching others, transferring experience, be generous, altruistic. It is recommended to eat a lot. One should not be conservative.
Lunar Mansion 18, Al-Qalb (The Heart)
8° 34' 17'' Scorpio – 21° 25' 43'' Scorpio
Good For
Building, farming. Treatment of stomach. Exposing enemies.
Not Good For
Almost anything. Family matters. Excessive eating, or eating an unknown food.
Essence
Impending danger. Defence.
Opinions
Warnock: We do not want to rouse this energy agains us. This Mansion may warn of impending danger. We benefit from its ominous message by acting to put ourselves in protective mode.
Warnock: We should be careful not to eat to excess, as we are particularly prone to stomach upset under this Mansion.
Warnock: Make images to build buildings that will be strong, to take away fevers and pains of the stomach.
Volguine: Exerts an especially favourable influence for exposing enemies and in times of war; and unfavourable from all other aspects, especially for the family; it is a sign threatening premature death for the mother (often in labor).
Volguine: One of the worst mansions since enterprises undertaken by the native never give him the rewards they should. Creates the danger of reversal of situation, most often in shameful circumstances.
Volguine: Seems to provoke unfair trials.
Agrippa: It causes discord, sedition, conspiracy against princes and mighty ones, and revenge from enemies, but it frees captives and helps edifices.
Ashmole 396: When the Moon is in this Mansion, build, buy land, farm your lands. Receive dignity and worship. If it rain it shall do good. Take your journey toward the East. If the Moon be with Mars and you wed, you shall find that your wife is no maiden. Buy no servants. Build, enter into ship. Take no new fellowship. Plant trees and herbs. Wear no new clothes. Shear not your hair. Receive and make medicines.

Applying Sun Conjunct Saturn
This transit is about making realistic judgments and locating responsibilities. It’s a transit of beginnings and endings, delays and obstacles, and cooling down. Patience and organization are favored.
Applying Moon Opposite Uranus
Disruptions in the flow of events may occur suddenly now. It’s a time for experimentation and novelty. People’s moods are subject to rapid changes. Expect the unexpected.
Applying Mercury Sextile Jupiter
School, travel and transportation, and legal matters are themes now. It’s a time for exploration and learning.
Applying Venus Conjunct Neptune
This transit stimulates romance, imagination, artistic creativity and appreciation, spiritual inclinations, and the inner life in general. Rules and restrictions are relaxed and there is compassion for the less fortunate. Feelings and emotions rule.
Applying Mars Square Neptune
The motivations, actions, and initiatives of some people may seem questionable now. People tend to be driven more by ideology or beliefs than by reality. At worst, there is name calling, confusion over remarks, weak or deceptive leadership, and sometimes fires or other disasters. Often there is more smoke than fire.
Jupiter void in Aries
Moral and legal matters assume prominence and are used to justify broad-sweeping actions. Decisions that have required long and careful thought, or have been dragged out, are finally made. Growth trends reach a peak or a set of limits. This may be a time to sell, or buy, depending on where trends have been leading. Confidence is high but it is volatile. Important decisions or spiritual events may make news now.
Saturn void in Aquarius
Formalities are the rule; traditions are maintained. Groups of old friends, family, and comrades assemble to remember the past. Conservatism rules; experiments fail. At this time leaders are under pressure and laws are put into effect. It’s a time for staying with tradition and not experimenting with new forms of social behaviors. The past triumphs.
Uranus void in Taurus
Actions are unconventional, radical, or surprising. Not everyone agrees on how things should go, therefore there is discord within groups. Others, who have a specific agenda, persevere to make their point despite fierce opposition. Social conditions are volatile now. The bottom could fall out. It’s a time for experimentation and deviant behaviors. Sudden, unusual, and disruptive conditions occur now that reveal deep inequalities in society and culture.
Neptune void in Pisces
Trends are unclear. Not everything is known, there is much to suspect. The fabric of reality seems to be ripped asunder. Faith in leadership is low. Social and economic conditions are unstable and subject to devaluations. The future looks uncertain and no one is taking any chances. Beliefs about reality are challenged. Some feel overwhelmed, even flooded, literally and figuratively.
Pluto void in Capricorn
There is movement toward displaying outright power. Tolerance and patience are pushed aside in favor of drastic actions. Old wounds are reopened and confrontations forced. Power plays occur. Secret forces make their presence known. Some seek to act on their urges, others attempt to stop them. Deep secrets are revealed. A collective cleansing is in order.

FEBRUARY 12
The Sun semi-square Jupiter early day can point to some over-estimation of our energy or motivation levels. We want to grow, improve, and expand, and it may be necessary to push some boundaries now, but it’s best to do so gently. The Moon spends the day in perceptive, deeply feeling Scorpio. While it’s not always easy to get a good “read” on others this afternoon with the Moon’s opposition to Uranus, it’s a fine time for exploring the layers of situations.
FEBRUARY 13
The Last Quarter Moon occurs at 11:02 AM EST, when the Sun in Aquarius forms a square with the Moon in Scorpio, pointing to a crisis of consciousness. It’s a time to consider what our recent revelations mean to us and what we might do as a result. This Quarter Moon signals the need to review and sort rather than push something new. Until the New Moon on February 20th, it’s a better time to tie up loose ends, take inventory, and let go if necessary. The Moon moves into Sagittarius at 8:32 PM EST. It’s an adventurous and truth-seeking Moon transit. We may take a more philosophical and less strategic approach to life now.
The Moon is void from 6:53 PM EST, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a sextile to Pluto), until the Moon enters Sagittarius at 8:32 PM EST.
FEBRUARY 14
The Moon spends the day in optimistic Sagittarius. However, a minor challenging aspect between Mars and Pluto can add a layer of pressure to the day. It can be difficult to fully commit to what we choose to do today, as much as we’d like to, without the distractions of Pluto-related worries, concerns, and challenges. While competition can be motivating in the morning, we become more invested and take it a little too seriously as the day advances.
FEBRUARY 15
The Moon is void from 8:07 PM EST, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a sextile to Saturn), until the Moon enters Capricorn the next day, Thursday, February 16th, at 12:01 AM EST.
FEBRUARY 16
The Moon continues its void until it enters Capricorn today at 12:01 AM EST.
FEBRUARY 17
The void Moon occurs from 11:18 PM EST, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a conjunction to Pluto), until the Moon enters Aquarius the next day, Saturday, February 18th, at 12:35 AM EST.

This week: The Sun is in Aquarius until the 18th, when it enters Pisces; Mercury is in Aquarius; Venus is in Pisces; Mars is in Gemini.
The Sun is in Aquarius from January 20-February 18. During this cycle, we are motivated by our hunger for knowledge, experience, and originality. Innovation is more important to us than convention. We become more aware of what is outdated in our lives, and strive to find new perspectives and new ways to do things. The class distinctions, structure, and order that Capricorn finds appealing now seem to be too rigid. The freedom of the individual becomes far more significant to us. We strive to free ourselves from some of the restrictions, inhibitions, and limitations that now feel constraining rather than safe.
We recognize those things that are obsolete or outdated, and we’re ready to change the world with new ideas and methods. We might often let our heads rule over our hearts during this cycle, preferring an objective, impersonal, and rational approach to life.
The Sun is in Pisces from February 18-March 20. With the Sun in Pisces, we are guided by altruistic feelings. We are less motivated to do than we are to feel, imagine, and dream. A “what will be, will be” attitude reigns, and we are guided by a sense of universal correlations. Pisces rules empathy, selfless love, devotion, and wisdom. Its shadow side can include self-pity, a feeling of being victimized by life, passivity, and elusiveness.
While we may not always verbalize our feelings and impressions during this cycle, they’re strong and motivating. We prefer to believe and trust, giving things/people the benefit of the doubt until they prove us wrong. We might often tune out problems or conflicts rather than tackle them head on, hoping they will iron themselves out. Prosperity flows when we’re connecting with our heart, being kind, and helping others. The need to withdraw or retreat to restore our energy is strong from time to time.
Mercury is in Aquarius from February 11-March 2. When Mercury is in Aquarius, we are hungry for knowledge and open to new and original ideas. We begin to think outside of the box, and our thinking becomes more progressive and objective. Our communication and thought patterns are spontaneous, somewhat fragmented, reasonable, objective, and liberal. This is a time when inventive thinking is at a peak.
We’re reasonable, finding it easier to separate intellect and emotion when assessing a situation. Although progressive-minded and receptive to new studies and information, we are not quick to sway from our ideas and beliefs. During this cycle, we take more interest in thinking that’s daring or original. As we envision a better future, we can come up with truly interesting ideas and concepts.
Venus is in Pisces from January 26-February 20. Venus in Pisces is tender and affectionate, although hard to reach, as there is a longing for something that is difficult to define and hard to satisfy. Borders and boundaries blur under Venus in Pisces. The shadow side of this position is allowing ourselves to be deceived because we want to believe, as well as evasiveness. We should watch for falling in love with an idealized image of something or someone. It’s also important to watch for avoidant or indirect behavior.
Venus is exalted in Pisces and does well in the sign. It’s devoted, compassionate, exceptionally giving, and capable of sacrifice. We might refer heavily on our intuition with our finances and love life during this cycle. We gravitate to–and appreciate–unusual, tossed aside, poetic, artistic objects, situations, and people. We seek activities that move, inspire, or touch us.
Money may slip through our fingers, or we could turn a blind eye to some of the practical elements of our lives now. However, finances improve if we connect with our otherworldly talents, imagination, desire to heal and serve, or sense of mission.
This transit is not particularly strong for resolve or determination, but it’s good for adaptability and increased understanding or acceptance.
Mars is in Gemini from August 20, 2022-March 25, 2023. [This is much longer than usual due to a Mars retrograde cycle from October 30, 2022-January 12, 2023.]
In Gemini, Mars is versatile and flexible but not especially determined or focused. We should watch for becoming so scattered that we’re ineffective. However, it’s an excellent period for diversifying our interests and understanding the power of our communications.
It’s an excellent time for strategizing and devising useful tactics to achieve our desires and goals. We’re resourceful and clever, and we know how to use words effectively.
Perhaps most notable during this period is our tactical skills. We know how to maneuver things to get our way. We use words to charm and express anger. We’re very talkative, and animatedly so, when passionate and enthusiastic about a topic.
Jupiter is in Aries.
Jupiter was in Aries from May 10 to October 28, 2022 before it retreated into Pisces. This was part one of two, with the second and final part occurring from December 20, 2022, to May 16, 2023. Read more about Jupiter’s transit of Aries.
Saturn transits Aquarius from March 21 to July 1, 2020, and from December 17th, 2020, until March 7, 2023. Read about Saturn’s transit of Aquarius.
Uranus is in Taurus.
Uranus transits Taurus from May 15, 2018, to November 6, 2018, and then from March 6th, 2019, until 2025/6. We approach money and personal possessions in new ways and learn to free ourselves from certain material constraints. Innovative ways to make ourselves comfortable emerge. We’re less inhibited about expressing sensuality, self-love, body love, and pampering. Above all, we’re challenging what we previously valued during this cycle.
There can be abrupt changes with money, valuables, possessions, and income that lead to a reshuffling of priorities or values. Income might come from non-traditional sources or ventures. In general, we’re bringing progressive ideas to the world of business. New ways of doing business, as well as making, viewing, and handling money, are likely. Our income and the energy we put into making money can be variable.
Romance & Relationships
Venus is in Pisces from January 26-February 20. Like Aquarius, Pisces love is universal. However, Pisces draws no bounds in love. With Venus in Pisces, we have compassion (and perhaps attraction) for those who are left out, overlooked, or victimized. We are self-sacrificing, and we have a hard time setting up borders. The walls go down, we have a hard time saying no (especially if our compassion is engaged), but we are also prone to avoiding all that makes us feel uncomfortable.
Wishful thinking is one expression of Venus in Pisces. We can too easily believe what we want to believe. People can be hard to pin down, and love is hard to define under this influence. Pisces never sees the world in black-and-white terms. Rather, Pisces sees all the colors of the rainbow. With the goddess of love in Pisces, our love is all-embracing, we are able to forgive and understand, we are seducible and seductive, and we show compassion to our partners.
Venus in Pisces is tender and affectionate, although hard to reach nevertheless, as there is a longing for something that is hard to define and hard to satisfy. Borders and boundaries blur under Venus in Pisces. The shadow side of this position is allowing ourselves to be deluded, as well as evasiveness.
This week: On Tuesday and Wednesday, a yearly alignment between Venus and Neptune occurs, and we’re especially sensitive to and aware of beauty and spirituality. We’re seducible and can be seductive. This is a psychically open time, but also a period when we may be seeing what we want to see rather than what is. It can be a highly romantic time, and we can be more understanding and compassionate with one another. This energy is even stronger with these planets also parallel.
On Thursday, we’re optimistic and ready to take a chance or give someone or something the benefit of the doubt. However, we should watch for overextension. It’s best not to overstate or make big promises based only on the good mood of the moment.
On Saturday, we seek a deep love in which we can merge souls and personalities with our lover. We are quite devoted to our partners, and we seek such devotion in return. A Venus-Pluto sextile supports intimacy, understanding, and depth in our connections. This is a strong week for relationships.
Venus, the Goddess of Love: Highlights in the Coming Week:
Venus in Pisces A martyr complex, a love for the underdog, a search for your soul mate: such are the experiences associated with the new cycle you’re now just beginning. A yen for soul-stirring romance, a weakness for the weak, and a tendency to idealize people and relationships … very aesthetic, very other-worldly.
Venus contra-parallel Chiron February 8. Others, and especially partners and love interests, have something to teach us. This is a time for identifying vulnerable areas.
Venus conjunct Neptune February 14-15. New and fresh beginnings on romantic levels characterize this transit. Heightened sensitivity to, and awareness of, beauty and spirituality. We are easily influenced, seducible and seductive, and given to strong powers of imagination. We are more attuned to the world of beauty and romance. Gentleness with others is the best way to harness this energy. A “magical” time on a romantic and social level, but it could also be a confusing or illusory influence as well. Psychic openness and compassion.
Venus parallel Neptune February 14-15. Heightened sensitivity to, and awareness of, beauty and spirituality. We are more attuned to the world of beauty and romance. We more naturally embrace compassion. Psychic openness.
Venus contra-parallel Jupiter February 16. We’re optimistic and ready to take a chance or give someone or something the benefit of the doubt. We are able to make the best of a situation now. Watch for overextension. It’s best not to overstate or make big promises based only on the good mood of the moment.
Venus sextile Pluto February 18-19. Subtly powerful and uplifting time for romantic/sexual relationships. New insights into relationships and love. Strong attractions.
As it orbits the Sun, Venus shows phases like the Moon. When it is closest to the Earth, passing between us and the Sun, Venus appears almost entirely unilluminated. When it passes around the far side of the Sun, its disk appears almost completely illuminated. When it is prominent in the morning or evening sky, Venus is around half phase.
Sun semi-square Jupiter. We may feel vague restlessness and discontent with life as it is. We want more, but perhaps too much. Overestimation, wastefulness, and exaggeration. Elevated moods, but unstable ones, as they may not be based on reality.
Mars sesquiquadrature Pluto. Our desires are intense and difficult to satisfy under this influence. A tendency to bully and confront may dominate. Efforts to make changes could be thwarted, or power struggles emerge. The trick is to remain flexible and to develop strategies for achieving our goals.
Venus conjunct Neptune. New and fresh beginnings on creative levels characterize this transit. Heightened sensitivity to, and awareness of, beauty and spirituality. We are easily influenced, seducible and seductive, and given to strong powers of imagination. We are more attuned to the world of beauty and romance today. Gentleness with others is the best way to harness this energy. A “magical” time on a romantic and social level, but it could also be a confusing or illusory influence as well. Psychic openness and compassion.
Sun conjunct Saturn. This is a time when we are called upon to “get real”. We feel the constraints of time and are motivated by the desire to manifest tangible results. It’s “nose to the grindstone” time. We may feel overworked; alternatively, we welcome some discipline into our lives. Avoid launching new projects, particularly financial ones. Instead, work on a new plan for creating order in your life, or on an old project that requires a new commitment. Emotional energy is not enough to fuel us for the time being; thus we could feel sapped on a physical level. However, making new commitments to old goals, shouldering responsibilities, and making careful use of our resources could feed our need for structure and order in our lives.
Sun semi-square Chiron. The desire to learn and grow through experiences and through others is strong, but may be hampered by a lack of confidence or a fear of being different.
Mercury semi-square Neptune. We are not thinking clearly, preferring to daydream. Technical facts can be glossed over at this time. It’s not a good time to make a presentation, to ask for what you want, or to formalize agreements.
Mercury sextile Jupiter. Positive thinking, new insights, and cooperation are themes now. This influence favors short trips, writing, teaching, studying, submitting applications and forms, test taking, and making diagnoses and observations. This is a time when we more readily exercise good judgment, take a more philosophical approach to thinking, and are more open to learning.

February 2023:
When the Moon is in Leo
The Moon in Leo speaks to our "inner child". It's a warm, generous, whole-heartedly loving position. Pride keeps us from pettiness, but it can also prevent us from opening up and revealing how we are truly feeling. We are on stage, our feelings are grand, and we appreciate some drama in our lives. We are easily threatened by anything that seems to be impersonal. This is a time when we seek attention--when we want to stand out for our special qualities. It's a strong time for romance and any creative activity as well.
The Moon in Leo generally favors the following activities: Creative activities, activities involving children, generous undertakings, undertakings in which personal recognition is desired, and risk-taking.
When the Moon is in Virgo
We instinctually gravitate towards practical activities under the influence of a Virgo Moon. In an urge to set things right, we might easily find ourselves re-organizing and rethinking plans. Emotional satisfaction comes from solving problems, making order out of confusion, and helping others. Health matters might come into focus. We notice the smaller parts that make up the whole, and instead of letting nagging details bother us, we might work on ironing them out so that we can feel more confident moving ahead.
The Moon in Virgo generally favors the following activities: Mental pursuits, work activities, services, and routines. Activities that would benefit from tending to details.
When the Moon is in Libra
Creating order is the focus, not necessarily through tidying or organizing as was the case while the Moon was in Virgo, but rather through pleasing interactions with others and aesthetics in our environment. We tend to solve problems through diplomacy, and we are more able to put aside our own emotions in order to achieve the peace we crave. The tendency now is to avoid direct confrontations. Decisions do not come easily. Seeing both sides to any given situation is the main reason for hesitation. Fear of losing others' approval is another.
The Moon in Libra generally favors the following activities: Relationship and partnership issues, activities involving teamwork and cooperation, activities that involve self-examination, activities related to beauty.
When the Moon is in Scorpio
Intensity is what the Moon in Scorpio is all about. Whether it's passion, elation, sorrow, or desire, emotions are felt on a deeply personal level. We are motivated by the desire to get to the bottom of things, and we instinctively read between the lines. Superficiality won't work for us now. The Moon in Scorpio urges us to uncover our own power, and it's an excellent time to rid ourselves of old fears and limiting habits. It can be an intimate and passionate time. Avoid manipulative tactics, brooding, and suspiciousness.
The Moon in Scorpio generally favors the following activities: Taxes, accounting, intimacy issues, psychological examinations, research, self-examination, getting rid of old things.
When the Moon is in Sagittarius
The Moon is at her most optimistic and upbeat in Sagittarius. We are motivated by a need to seek the truth, and we are ready to pursue a new vision. We are not interested in details just now. Instead, we focus on the big picture. New experiences and adventures satisfy a deep emotional need. Spontaneity is the key. We may also be inclined toward overdoing and overstating. We don't want to plan ahead, and prefer to "wing it".
The Moon in Sagittarius generally favors the following activities: Adventurous activities that involve "winging it", travel, higher education, starting publishing projects, advertising, sports, physical activity.
When the Moon is in Capricorn
We become aware of the need for structure and planning ahead. We also instinctively are aware of the limitations of time. We are motivated by a desire for success. Achievement and manifestation are most important to us now. We are resourceful and don't want to waste time, energy, or resources. This can be a very sober influence--even a depressing one. However, it can also be a productive time when we look reality in the eye.
The Moon in Capricorn generally favors the following activities: Long-term activities that yield slow but steady results, practical undertakings, career issues, making a business plan, practical investments.
When the Moon is in Aquarius
Attraction to all that is new and unusual, and an instinctive need for improvement, characterize the Moon in Aquarius. Reactions are more intellectual than emotional, and interactions are more impersonal than personal, under this influence. This is a time that promotes social gatherings, dealing with group ideals and goals for the future, brainstorming, new ideas, and progressive changes. We are open to new methods of doing things and we have our eye on the future. It can be hard to stick to schedules now, as personal freedom is most important to us.
The Moon in Aquarius generally favors the following activities: Unusual or radical undertakings, social pursuits, group projects, trying something new, joining a group.
Jan 21, 2023, 3:53 PM, Sun Conjunct Moon (New Moon)
Jan 28, 2023, 10:19 AM, Sun Square Moon (First Quarter Moon)
Feb 5, 2023, 1:28 PM, Sun Opposition Moon (Full Moon)
Feb 13, 2023, 11:01 AM, Sun Square Moon (Last Quarter Moon)
Feb 20, 2023, 2:06 AM, Sun Conjunct Moon (New Moon)
The LAST QUARTER MOON occurs on Monday, February 13th, 2023, at 16:01. Monday, the Last Quarter Moon is exact when the Sun in Aquarius forms a square with the Moon in Scorpio.
The Last Quarter Moon phase points to some sort of crisis of consciousness. After basking in the awareness symbolized by the full light of the Moon at the time of the recent Full Moon, we disperse our knowledge and come to a point when we need to sort out what works for us–and what doesn’t–in preparation for next week’s New Moon, when something new is born once again.
This is not the best time to start a major project, as the decreasing light of the Moon symbolizes a descent into unconsciousness. It’s time to begin finishing up the details of that which was conceived at the last New Moon. We might consider what our recent revelations mean to us, and what we might do as a result.
It’s better to review and sort than to push something new. Until the New Moon, we might take inventory, tie up loose ends, and let go if necessary.

Aquarians have a rebellious nature, and are eccentric, spontaneous and original. They are forward thinking and detached, and can seem conservative though they really are not very much so. They are scientifically minded and logical, and confident in manner.
Aquarians are likely to be years ahead of their time in the way they think. They can also appear to be more involved with work than with other people, although they truly value social contact.
Aquarians are intuitive, imaginative and inventive, and inclined to take chances, especially in the service of their goals. They can be quite noble in their deepest nature, but also may come across as critical and demanding. Their highest purpose is found in aligning themselves with the advancement of social and humanitarian ideals.
The element related to Aquarius is Air.
The Air element is the masculine or yang energy representing the breath or prana - the realm of ideas and archetypal associations that link the physical and non-physical world together. It corresponds to the Jungian typology of Thinking. All forms of relationship and thought fall within its purview. Air people tend to live in their heads, being logical and scientific, as well as curious about what is around them and detached in their outlook. They dream the world into being with their future-oriented conceptions. They choose all parties to a dispute rather than taking sides, and thus provide the social linkage that can join disparate groups to each other.
The mode of Aquarius is Fixed.
Fixed signs are in-taking rather than outgoing, receptive rather than originating. People with many Fixed signs tend to be stubborn and difficult to sway from their intended course of action.
The ruling planets of Aquarius are Uranus and Saturn.
Uranus is the planet of freedom and revolutionary vision, the urge for change and the ability to visualize new possibilities. Uranus rules Aquarius, and is exalted in Scorpio. It is also associated with mental studies, electricity and astrology. Its position indicates the arena of originality and freedom from conventional thinking in your life.
Saturn is the planet of limitation and contraction, and the trials of life experience. This includes disciplive, punctuality, and the conservation of material resources. Saturn rules Capricorn and is exalted in Libra, and is limited and material, versus unlimited faith (as represented by Jupiter). It indicates areas where the personality will be restricted by fears and lack of confidence, and also areas which are important to be worked on in this lifetime.

Sun in Aquarius This is a time when your path of self-development and expression becomes more and more unusual – setting you apart from the crowd and from all that is traditional. The new, the futuristic, the high-tech are the hallmarks of your lifestyle as the cycle gets underway. Ideas and technologies that change the way people live – not just one person, but many – are a major new focus in your life. Involvement with ideals and idealistic groups enhances your sense of purpose and mission.
Sun in Pisces The mystic, the martyr, the sinner, and the saint: these archetypes take on greater importance in your life at a time like this. Forgiveness, compassion, and understanding come naturally, when you look at life from an eternal perspective – and if anyone ever does know such things, you’ll probably come to understand them as this cycle unfolds. This can be a phase of sublime spiritual development, to be sure. But you should be aware of tendencies to believe too quickly, too deeply, or to become dependent on things or people that seem to offer quick and easy answers to life’s deepest yearnings.
Mercury in Aquarius The tried and true doesn’t cut it anymore: it’s the new, the unique, and the original that catches and holds your interest now. Idealism, rationality, and critical thinking become more and more a part of your mental patterns and the way you communicate. You are inventive, original, high tech.
Venus in Pisces A martyr complex, a love for the underdog, a search for your soul mate: such are the experiences associated with the new cycle you’re now just beginning. A yen for soul-stirring romance, a weakness for the weak, and a tendency to idealize people and relationships … very aesthetic, very other-worldly.
Mars in Gemini Learning, communicating, the exchange of ideas: these are the experiences you crave as a means to make your mark now, as a new phase begins in your life. You’re a person with something to say, and you realize that others have information that is essential to your goals. A time of much mental energy and initiative … perhaps with an element of conflict tossed in for good measure.
Jupiter in Aries Faith in yourself and your future is emphasized as you begin this new cycle. A feeling that anything is possible leads to new ventures, a clean break from the past. At its best, this is a very positive and optimistic new cycle in your life, but at times, overconfidence can border on foolhardy bravery. Don’t burn your bridges behind you!
Saturn in Aquarius Ideals are in for a period of testing, as a new phase begins in your life. What are principles worth, unless they are put into practice? That’s an important question for you now. This could mean you may be disappointed by causes you believe in – but if you abandon your principles, you lose.
Uranus in Taurus Practicality and ingenuity combine as powerful drives in your life now that you have begun a new cycle. Taking innovative concepts and making them real and practical is your strong suit; getting stuck in the mud is to be avoided at all costs. Financial savvy, inventiveness, worldly genius.
Neptune in Pisces Things spiritual and psychic take the driver’s seat of your imagination as you begin a new cycle. The fine arts and all manner of fantasies assume a larger-than-life importance. Surrendering to fate, karma, and other powers greater than merely mortal may be seen as the ultimate liberation. If all is Maya (illusion), what is the reality that gives rise to the world of appearances?
Pluto in Capricorn As this new phase dawns for you, the pursuit of social/political power and status has a way of seeming necessary and inevitable – and let nothing stand in its way. It starts out small but has bigger consequences than you’d think. Ambition, responsibility, a place for everyone, and everyone in their place…

OBSERVER LA COMÈTE C/2022 E3 (ZTF)
Février 2023 va être marqué par le passage d’une comète qui sera visible tout au long du mois, même si son éclat ne permettra de la percevoir que faiblement à l’œil nu.
On sera donc loin d’une C/1995 O1 (Hale-Bopp) (visible en avril 1997) ou d’une C/2020 F3 (NEOWISE) (visible en juillet 2020) qui ont illuminé le ciel pendant quelques semaines lors de leur passage.
Cette comète visible ce mois-ci s’appelle C/2022 E3 (ZTF). Elle a été découverte le 2 mars 2022 par le télescope de Schmidt de 1,2 m de l’observatoire du mont Palomar. L’acronyme ZTF provient du programme d’observation, le Zwicky Transient Facility, qui surveille les objets rapides, types astéroïdes ou comètes, de notre système solaire. Lors de sa découverte, la comète avait une magnitude de 17. L’absence de coma l’a d’abord fait identifier comme un astéroïde, mais des observations complémentaires ont révélé sa nature cométaire. Les éléments d’orbite actuellement connus permettent de calculer qu’elle a fait un dernier passage il y a 50 000 ans (± 3 000 ans) et que son passage actuel va lui fournir une énergie de mouvement qui va la faire quitter notre système solaire après ce passage en 2023. Dans le passé, elle était stockée, comme des milliards d’autres noyaux de comètes, dans le nuage de Oort, à environ 1 année-lumière du Soleil.
Lors de sa découverte en mars 2022, elle se rapprochait du Soleil et venait de croiser l’orbite de Jupiter. Elle était alors à 4,3 au de notre étoile. Elle est passée au périhélie, soit au point de son orbite le plus proche du Soleil, le 12 janvier 2023 à 19 h (UT). Elle n’était plus qu’à 1,11 au de ce dernier. Sa magnitude avoisinait alors 7.
Du fait de cette proximité, elle évacuait alors entre 1 et 2 tonnes de vapeur d’eau par seconde. À titre de repère, c’est 5 fois plus que ce qui avait été constaté pour la comète 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, rendue célèbre pour avoir été visitée en 2014 par la sonde européenne Rosetta.
En s’éloignant du Soleil, C/2022 E3 (ZTF) a la bonne idée de se rapprocher de la Terre dont elle sera au plus près – périgée - le 1er février 2023 à 18 h (UT), à seulement 42,5 millions de kilomètres. Sa magnitude devrait alors osciller entre 4 et 5. En théorie, elle devrait donc être visible à l’œil. Cependant, alors que la comète sera située ce jour-là entre l’étoile Polaire et l’étoile Capella, une Lune située non loin dans les Gémeaux et à 4 jours de la pleine lune va rendre cette observation bien difficile. Il est donc conseillé d’attendre que la Lune décroisse et s’éloigne de la comète.
Notons que C/2022 E3 (ZTF) va traverser le ciel d’hiver sur une trajectoire quasiment nord-sud tout au long des mois de février et de mars. Sa progression sera rapide du 1er février – elle sera alors dans la Girafe – jusque vers le 20 février – elle sera alors dans le Taureau, dans le prolongement au nord-ouest (en haut à droite) de la ceinture d’Orion. Ensuite, et durant tout le mois de mars, elle plongera lentement dans l’Éridan, à droite de la constellation d’Orion.
En février, la comète va nous offrir trois conjonctions remarquables :
- Dans la nuit du 5 au 6 février, elle va d’abord passer très près de l’étoile Capella dans la constellation du Cocher.
- Dans la nuit du 10 au 11 février, elle croisera la planète Mars, à environ 2 degrés.
- Le 14 février, elle rendra visite à l’amas ouvert des Hyades en frôlant l’étoile Aldébaran.
Outre qu’ils permettront de la trouver facilement, ces rapprochements seront aussi l’occasion de photographier l’astre chevelu à proximité de beaux repères célestes.
Comment observer cette comète ?
Les prédictions d’éclat nous indiquent que sa magnitude devrait osciller entre 4,8 et 7 en février, le maximum intervenant bien sûr en tout début de mois du fait de son passage au périgée, alors qu’elle devrait avoisiner la magnitude 8 à la fin du mois. Comme écrit précédemment, la présence de la Lune va hélas perturber la période la plus favorable du début de mois. Il sera assez compliqué de la localiser à l’œil nu à cause d’un fond de ciel rendu très brillant par l’éclat lunaire. On optimisera ses chances de l’observer en privilégiant la période du début de soirée du 8 février avant le lever de la lune au 25 février après son coucher, la période optimale pour l’admirer en soirée se situant entre le dernier quartier (13 février) et 48 h après la nouvelle lune (22 février).
Considérant son éclat, l’observation à l’œil nu sera probablement très décevante. Comme bien souvent avec les comètes, les jumelles vont s’avérer être un excellent instrument. En offrant un champ large et lumineux, des 7 × 50 (grossissement de 7 fois et lentilles de 50 mm de diamètre), 10 × 50 ou 12 × 50 permettront de voir la coma et éventuellement une ou deux queues (plasma et poussières). Avec une lunette (80 à 120 mm) ou un télescope (115 à 200 mm), on aura suffisamment de lumière pour distinguer une forme particulière, ainsi que d’éventuels détails dans la coma, mais aussi dans les queues si elles sont assez brillantes.
L’observation des comètes peut en effet être source de surprise. Si certains astres ont pu grandement décevoir, comme C/2012 S1 (ISON), il arrive parfois que des comètes offrent une activité plus importante que prévue. Dès lors, le noyau étant beaucoup plus actif, le nuage de gaz, d’eau et de débris évacué par la comète est beaucoup plus grand et dense que prévu. Vue depuis la Terre, ce nuage étant éclairé par le Soleil, la comète devient bien plus brillante et peut montrer plus de détails, comme C/1995 O1 (Hale-Bopp) qui offrait en 1997 deux queues bien visibles à l’œil nu. Croisons les doigts : peut-être que C/2022 E3 (ZTF) nous offrira pareille surprise… ?!
MARS DANS LE DOS DE LA LUNE
Cette fois-ci aura été la bonne. Après celle de décembre, qui s’est passée en catimini derrière les nuages en métropole, celle de janvier s’est déroulée dans le ciel clair de La Réunion. Les observateurs réunionnais s’en sont donnés à cœur joie ce 3 janvier 2023 pour assister à la première occultation planétaire de l’année, celle de Mars par la Lune.
Mars abordait la Lune par son limbe plongé dans la nuit lunaire, il était donc possible d’obtenir la courbe de lumière du phénomène, c’est-à-dire la variation de la lumière renvoyée par la planète Mars tout au long de son immersion derrière le limbe lunaire.
La figure 1 montre un chapelet d’images faites au foyer d’un C8 équipé d’un réducteur de focale de 0,63 à l’aide d’un APN 1100d doté d’un capteur CMOS avec un temps de pose de 1/2500 s. L’échelle du pixel sur le ciel est de 0,85″, ce qui donne un champ de 60,5′× 40,3′. La planète Mars est parfaitement résolue (diamètre apparent de 14″). À noter, la trajectoire relative légèrement incurvée de Mars rapportée au centre de la Lune (visible également sur la prédiction correspondante du phénomène, fig. 2). Le C8 était monté en parallèle avec le télescope T60 de l’Observatoire des Makes qui a servi à l’obtention de la courbe de lumière donnant la variation d’éclat de Mars au moment de l’immersion (voir fig. 5), débarrassé de toute pollution lumineuse en provenance de la Lune.
L’image de la figure 3 correspond à l’instant exact auquel Mars a perdu la moitié de sa lumière. Elle a été réalisée par Quentin Gineys au foyer d’un C11 à l’aide d’une caméra Asi224mc avec un pixel de 0,26″ et un temps de pose de 1/1000 s. Autre image faite à l’aide d’un C11, celle de Pierre Thierry à l’Observatoire des Makes (fig. 4).
Deux courbes de lumière furent obtenues à partir de ces observation faites en deux endroits différents de l’île. Les instants de contact varient d’un lieu à l’autre en raison du fort effet de parallaxe engendré par la proximité de la Lune. La prédiction des instants du premier contact (extérieur et intérieur) est reportée en traits interrompus sur la figure 5. Ces instants de prédictions ont été calculés en admettant un modèle lunaire légèrement aplati (le rayon équatorial est alors supérieur d’un peu moins de 2 km au rayon polaire). Les légers écarts entre la prédiction et l’observation s’expliquent par la forme non lisse de la Lune dont le profil lunaire présente des aspérités (plaines et montagnes). Cela se voit plus nettement sur la courbe obtenue au T60 pour laquelle l’instant du premier contact survient 2 secondes plus tôt que la prédiction. De telles observations, outre leur intérêt esthétique évident, peuvent ainsi révéler une autre « face cachée de la Lune », celle où la Lune n’est pas cette sphère parfaitement lisse, mais bien un corps céleste avec une forme légèrement aplatie (du fait de sa rotation propre) et un relief marqué.
Les prochaines opportunités pour La Réunion surviendront le 5 mai 2024, pour une occultation de Mars par la Lune, mais avec diamètre apparent de 5″ seulement, et le 24 juillet 2024 pour l’occultation de Saturne par la Lune.

Le vote régional commence en Italie en test pour le Premier ministre Meloni
12 février 2023
Le parti de Meloni est entré dans l'histoire en obtenant 26% aux élections législatives de septembre
Rome (AFP) - Des bureaux de vote ont ouvert dimanche pour les élections régionales dans les deux régions les plus peuplées d'Italie, des sondages considérés comme un test de popularité du gouvernement de trois mois du Premier ministre Giorgia Meloni.
Abritant 13 millions d'habitants combinés, la puissance économique du nord de la Lombardie et du Latium, qui comprend la capitale Rome, élira un nouveau président régional et des membres de l'assemblée.
Les candidats soutenus par la coalition d'extrême droite de Meloni devraient triompher dans les deux régions.
Son parti d'extrême droite, les Frères d'Italie, est entré dans l'histoire en obtenant 26 % des voix aux élections législatives de septembre.
Et en octobre, elle est devenue la première femme Premier ministre d'Italie, à la tête du gouvernement le plus à droite à Rome depuis la Seconde Guerre mondiale.
Le vote sera également surveillé de près pour détecter des signes de tensions entre Meloni et ses partenaires de la coalition - la Ligue d'extrême droite de Matteo Salvini et Forza Italia de droite de Silvio Berlusconi.
En Lombardie, le président régional Attilio Fontana, membre de la Ligue de Salvini et candidat de la coalition de Meloni, devrait être réélu pour un nouveau mandat de cinq ans.
Plus au sud dans le Latium, le candidat de droite Francesco Rocca devrait l'emporter face à une opposition divisée, en remplacement de Nicola Zingaretti du Parti démocrate, qui a démissionné après avoir été élu au parlement national l'an dernier.
Les bureaux de vote devaient rester ouverts jusqu'à 23H00 locales (22H00 GMT) et rouvrir à nouveau lundi.
Les résultats étaient attendus plus tard lundi.
