       Forecast for February 2012 - Really Big News!

Sun in Aquarius, moving into Pisces 2/20
2/3 Neptune moving into Pisces
2/7 Full Moon in Leo
2/9 Special Clue Day
2/21 New Moon in Pisces
Mars in retrograde motion in Virgo thru 4/13
Saturn in retrograde motion in Libra thru 6/25
 

February is hosting a very important astro-event. But before I explain, there's a little work required of each of you because this Month's forecast will be figured by You as an individual regardless of your zodiac sign. First, think back to what you were doing in 1998, then do a quick review of the next 14 years of your life and deduce what area held the greatest challenges and upsets. Was it your work, money, health, spirituality, love or blood relationships? Wherever the greatest obstacles or trials occurred, it should help you to know that life is about to improve for you in that regard.

Since 1998, Neptune, the planet of dreams, imagination, wishes and artistic endeavors, has been shivering in icy Aquarius, the sign of technology and unemotional, grounded attachments. To say the least, this was not a comfy place for Neptune or artistic individuals, though it clearly aided the advancement of technology.

But on February 3rd, for the first time since 1862, Neptune is moving into its home sign of dreamy Pisces for a 14-year stay. Water signs (Pisces, Cancer and Scorpio) should notice the beginning of a shift the fastest, but almost everyone will be feeling an urge to move the focus from technology to the arts as the large planet moves fully into Pisces. Anyone in an artistic field who has been on the verge of giving up his or her struggle to succeed needs only to hold on a bit longer. Your turn has finally arrived!

Another aspect of this once-in-a-lifetime placement is an increase in psychic phenomena and the fascination with all things mysterious. How cool is that going to be!

Meanwhile, keep in mind that Mars is in retrograde motion in restrictive Virgo through April 13, which means progress may be impeded during this restrained energy period. Ramming your head into a brick wall to force action will probably only get you a headache. On the plus side, Saturn, the Karmic Lord/lesson teacher is in retrograde motion in moderate Libra through 6/25, substantially reducing that planet’s ability to do its job of presenting challenges and pop quizzes.

Finally, because of a special alignment of planets and Neptune’s historical move, on February 9, most people should receive some sort of sign or message that will give a clue of the good things arriving in the coming decade. 


So, with that information, just imagine how your life is about to improve, visualize yourself in that new life and remember to say “thank you” to the Universe when it becomes a reality.


         Welcome to 2012!

When it comes to a long-range forecast that needs to be generalized for a large number of people, the metaphysical tool I find to be most accurate is numerology. To discover what the focus will be for you in the coming year, check out my Numerology Basics page and follow the simple mathematical equations.

Meanwhile, I feel obliged to address the big question hanging over all our heads. Will this year mark the end of the world? Doom and gloom prophets insist the end of the Mayan calendar is the evidence that we are all about to vanish from the face of the Earth. I say poppycock! As I forecasted in my book, "Metaphysical Fitness, Ten Commandments for Spiritual Being", it is more likely that we will be seeing the end of the world AS WE KNOW IT. Times--and things in general--are very definitely changing and my advice is to stay flexible, choose the path of light over the shadows and attend to whatever issues in your life you've been ignoring or wishing they would go away. Do that and, this time next year, you'll be glad you did.

As to January, 2012, the first two weeks will be very supportive to forming resolutions and getting started on them, seeking new employment or residences. The second half of the month, however, has the energy planet, Mars, going retrograde for several months. Though this energy will not totally block your progress, it will hinder the speed and ease with which you'll be able to act.

SUN SIGN SEXY TRAITS


The Sun Sign, which is based on your date of birth, is only a piece of what makes you you, astrologically speaking, but it’s the part that is most familiar. Here’s how I interpret the signs from a Sexyscope point of view. You may want to note what the sign’s traditional image and key word means on a sexual level.

AriesARIES - March 21 to April 19 – The Ram - ACTION

Wham! Bam! Thank you, ma’am. Aries is the charge-full-speed-ahead sign, often without thinking the attack all the way through. Like any good military-type, romantic gestures and lengthy foreplay are merely a means to the final takeover. Don’t expect long-term loyalty with this one. Once the hill has been taken it’s no longer interesting. A full sub-dom relationship is the only kind an Aries will keep coming back to.

TaurusTAURUS - April 20 to May 20 – The Bull - POSSESSION

Taureans are seldom adventurous in the bedroom but they have the longest endurance of all the signs. They can be counted on for a good solid encounter that lasts hours or even all weekend long. They can be coerced into trying almost anything if the partner is exceptionally beautiful. The expression “hung like a bull” is often accurately descriptive of male Taureans. Stubborn is an innate trait for this sign but a pretty face, hot body or elegant gift will get them to be more open-minded.

GeminiGEMINI - May 21 to June 20 – The Twins - VARIETY

Have you had a menage-a-trois lately? Geminis are known for having two distinct personalities so it’s natural for them to want two very different relationships simultaneously…both at once is even better. This is the sign of the artist and talker. Phone sex is over the top with a Gemini, who often has a sexy voice to begin with. If you want to hold onto a Gemini, consider a costume or wig, that when you wear it you “act” like a person opposite of yourself.

CancerCANCER - June 21 to July 22 – The Crab - TENACITY

There can be no big finish for a Cancer without the romantic attachment and plenty of talented foreplay. Lots of kissing is imperative and those born under this sign are usually really good at giving as good as they get. Cancers are natural caretakers and respond beautifully to being taken care of. These people are the forever kind. Promise them happily-ever-after and they’ll follow you into hell and back. Break that promise and the Cancer may retreat into his/her shell for a very long time. However, be warned, all that devotion and dependability comes with major mood swings and a dose of hypochondria.

LeoLEO - July 23 to August 22 – The Lion – EGO

Want to turn on a Leo? Massage the ego before, during and after massaging any body parts. It’s not just helpful, Leos are addicted to compliments and assurance of their power. A partner who learns to tell pretty lies about a Leo’s appearance and position in their world will usually be well rewarded. The hottest sex for a Leo is outdoors on a sunny day…and if a few hikers just happen to catch the show, so much the better.

VirgoVIRGO - August 23 to September 22 – The Virgin - VIRTUE

Virgos are the least promiscuous sign of the zodiac so once they have chosen a mate, they will never look at another. Unfortunately that’s often because they are convinced that very few people are able to satisfy them the way they want it to be done. The ultimate sexual experience for the virgin involves handcuffs and restrictive leather trappings.

LibraLIBRA - September 23 to October 22 – The Scales - HARMONY

A Libra is often called a hopeless romantic and the most loyal friend anyone can have. On the down side, they are not known for being inventive sex partners. Rough or even overly aggressive sex can actually be a turn-off. The only purpose conflict and arguing serves in their life is to give them something to mediate or resolve. But they love words, so talk dirty to them and you might be surprised by what comes out of (or goes into) their mouths. A Libra requires balance in all things and thus needs to be on top as often as the bottom.

ScorpioSCORPIO - (October 23 to November 21 – The Scorpion - PLOTTING

An alternate key word given for Scorpio is SEX! They want it, they need it, they do whatever they have to do to get it, but best of all, they are usually very, very good at it. Because a Scorpio never makes a move without a detailed plan for assured success, knowing more than the average human about how to arouse and satisfy a partner is almost instinctive. Scorpios rarely settle for mediocrity in anything. It’s good to keep in mind that once these people choose a mate they are incredibly faithful and protective…until they feel betrayed, then the key phrase becomes, “Be afraid, be very afraid.”

SagittariusSAGITTARIUS - November 22 to December 21 – The Centaur/Hunter - FREEDOM

Sagittarians do it in the car, they do it in the elevator, they are probably members of the mile high club. The more unplanned and spontaneous the encounter, the hotter it is, both for the Sag and his or her flavor of the day. This is the sign most likely to experiment with the non-traditional areas of sex play just for the sake of experience. You can count on a Sag to cheat on you but you probably won’t care because this one is so damn much fun to be with, whether for a day, a month or a lifetime. Just don’t hold on too tightly.

CapricornCAPRICORN - December 22 to January 19 – The Goat - AMBITION

Often called the workaholic of the zodiac, Capricorns tend to approach all of life in a business-like manner. They have a healthy interest in sex but work responsibilities tend to come first. Capricorns rationalize having affairs with co-workers because they can have a quickie in the supply closet and get right back to their desks. On the other hand, when they do carve out time for romance, they tend to work really, really hard to make sure the job at hand is completely finished before moving on.

AquariusAQUARIUS - January 20 to February 18 – The Water-Bearer – INDEPENDENCE

Aquarians make good friends but are slow to become intimate. They are more comfortable living alone than any other sign and will do without sex rather than getting physical without a mental connection. Although they are known to be cool and aloof, once they have chosen a partner, they turn steaming hot. A strange blend of high tech and new age, an Aquarian will be the first to bring toys into the bedroom or to implement the ancient wisdom of kama sutra.

PiscesPISCES - February 19 to March 20 – 2 Opposite Swimming Fish - TEMPERANCE

This is the go-with-the-flow sign. A Piscean is not so much submissive as wonderfully agreeable. The how and where of sex isn’t as important as enjoying the contact. There are always a number of movies running in the Pisces brain so it takes a pretty inventive partner to hold onto Pisces’ attention. Sex play in water is a specialty of the fish.
