Important transiting aspects for the week of February 11 – 17, 2013

Sunday, February 17:
First Quarter Moon @ 29 Taurus 20
Vesta inconjuncts Saturn

Today is the First Quarter Moon – the Sun and Moon square each other in FIXED signs – Aquarius to Taurus. The tension is between maintaining your ideals and affording your ideals. Both are necessary, but combining them is a challenge now. The Taurus Moon wants a comfy home, while the Sun at the last degree of Aquarius is feeling the excitement of freedom & independence – for yourself and the group. The only problem – who’s in charge.
