February 2022
ARIES (March 21 – April 19)
This month Aries is empty of planets but has a good aspect from the Sun, Saturn and finaly Mercury. These are good aspects for meditation. Saturn benefits a great deal from regular meditation as it supports wisdom and patience. If we move slowly into new activities with awareness and wisdom, we make few errors. The aspects support confidence and understanding, therefore regular meditation will enhance the influence.
Aries Buddhists love to be motivators. This month cultivate good relationships. Meditations on love and compassion are excellent supports to the development of personal good qualities and good friendships.
TAURUS (April 20 May 20)
This month Uranus moves slowly forward in Taurus. The month will start with some agitation as the Sun will square Uranus in the first week but that quickly disappears. The middle days of February are peaceful as there are no complicated aspects to stimulate you. The end of the month is great with Jupiter and the Sun coming into supportive aspects. Be a little careful of miscommunication at month end as Mercury will be square Uranus, but that should not be a problem as you are happy and enthusiastic.
Taurus Buddhists love to be grounded and practical. This month be present to what transpires in your immediate environment. Speculation can be useful if it opens the door to new ideas. Be present, enthusiastic, and compassionate.
GEMINI (May 21 – June 20)
This month is a mixed bag. The Sun and Saturn support you from a distance in the first weeks of February. These are secondary influences help you be happy and intelligent. The month ends though with too much energy. The Sun, Jupiter and Neptune will all be square to Gemini and cause agitation. Astrology is just an influence like the weather. This means right now the conditions are sunny, but you have to be aware of unexpected showers from other aspects come at month’s end. That would be a realistic view of things.
Gemini Buddhists are quick on their intellectual feet. This month be friendly and inspirational. Gemini has a strong intellectual capacity so be mindful of your speech and be supportive verbally of others.
CANCER (June 21 – July 22)
This month everything seems related to deep feelings. This is very good for Guru Yoga practices and faith. The reason is Pluto, Mars, Venus and Mercury are opposite Cancer. There is a beneficial aspect from Jupiter all the month of February. Therefore, Jupiter’s good energy elevates the deep feelings that stimulate you from Pluto’s opposition. The use of Guru Yoga is to support you with confidence and capacity to deal with whatever manifests as the day progress. Your teachers should always be an inspiration to work skillfully with all situations.
Cancer Buddhists normally work with feelings. This month be reflective emotionally. Do meditations that increase your faith. A good month to be mindful of the blessings of having a Guru.
LEO (July 23 – August 22)
This month you might have an enlightening moment in the first three weeks. The Sun and Saturn are conjunct and in opposition to your sign. That is great for profound insights provided you are not materialistically focused. This aspect could cause materialists to be confused and full of doubts. People with a spiritual vision will see the expanse of the sky as never before. It only lasts for the two weeks and so keep your spiritual eyes open.
Leo Buddhists like to be motivators. This month look at the world with the eyes of a yogi/yogini. Keep your vision on the grand scheme of things, not the little details.
VIRGO (August 23 – September 22)
This month life is lively with Neptune and Jupiter running in opposition to your sign. This effect is increases all of February. Be mindful of imaginary ideas that are a little too fantastic. Expect life to be full and unpredictable. If you are open-minded then you may find yourself excited with the progression of events. If you have a defensive attitude and are closed-minded then life might be unsettling. Be mindful of yourself as that is the best protection.
Virgo Buddhists do things in an orderly manner. This month you are running on intuition. Keep an eye on your ethical conduct. If you do something negative remember guilt is a double negative (you did something hurtful and you feel bad about yourself) whereas regret sees the problem as negative and helps you avoid repeating them in the future.
LIBRA (September 23 – October 22)
This month life seems bearable. The Sun and Saturn are well aspected to Libra. You do have Mars, Venus, Mercury and Pluto all square, but they are moving forward quickly. Therefore be confident you can handle any problems that come up, even if they seem complicated. You have a stable stimulation from the Sun and Saturn that will help you utilize your time to accomplish positive activities.
Libra Buddhists keep life in balance. This month life is good as you have a meditative nature. Do actions that benefit your neighborhood and community. Buddhists should express their positive qualities and influence the world constructively.
SCORPIO (October 23 – November 21)
This month Uranus runs opposite to Scorpio, and that means unexpected events. The Sun and Saturn sit square your sign for a short time and that might make you a little confused. You have good aspects from Venus and Mars though, giving you an affectionate nature. Focus on being friendly and all should go well. As Atisha, the great Indian saint says, “All suffering can be laid on the doorstep of self-cherishing.” Don’t focus on yourself, instead be aware of others and help them. Remember, we are interdependent with the universe, so be helpful and the universe will help you.
Scorpio Buddhists are passionate. This month be careful of confusion in the first week. You are prone to creating an illusion about yourself. Remember samsara is an illusion too, so don’t worry as everything you do is just relative to the moment and is not ultimately permanent.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 – December 21)
This month should go well for you. The Sun and Saturn support you from a distance. These are secondary influences to help you be happy and intelligent. Be a little careful of exciting illusions you create. The reason is Jupiter and Neptune are square, which can stimulate excitable fantasies. Astrology is just an influence like the weather. This means right now the conditions are sunny, but you have to be aware of unexpected gusts of wind that might push you in an undesirable direction. That would be a realistic view of things.
Sagittarius Buddhists are inspired individuals. This month slow down and do realistic activities. Your self-control is important to keep you on track and going in the right direction.
CAPRICORN (December 22 – January 19)
This month everything seems related to deep feelings. This is very good for Guru Yoga practices and faith. The reason is Pluto is in Capricorn with Mercury, Venus, and Mars. These four planets all bless you with a lot of energy. The deep feelings that stimulate you from Pluto are good for meditations that have faith and confidence in them. It is a good month to focus on intelligent beliefs within your Buddhist practice.
Capricorn Buddhists reflect and contemplate on decisions. This month be mindful of what direction you choose to go in. Faith plays a good role in your activities and so resonate with what you do, and you will have a lot of power.
AQUARIUS (January 20 – February 18)
This month you are the center of the universe. First off it is your birthday! Celebrate by phoning your mother and thanking her for the rebirth. Even if you don’t get along with your mother, she still gave you the opportunity to meet the Dharma and work on your issues. She deserves a hug from you or at least a prayer if she has passed on. The same applies to your father of course. The Sun and Saturn are conjunct for the first week of February. This is a good aspect for deeper meditation and self-confidence. You close the month with stable contemplative ideas. The reason is Mercury will come conjunct Saturn, blessing you with realistic understandings of samsara.
Aquarius Buddhists are sociable beings. This month work for social justice and human rights. You have the intelligence and self-confidence to accomplish good works. Be mindful of your speech, it is both a source of inspiration but also a weapon that inflame situations.
PISCES (February 19 – March 20)
This month you are the center of the universe. First off it is your birthday! Celebrate by phoning your mother and thanking her for the rebirth. Even if you don’t get along with your mother, she still gave you the opportunity to meet the Dharma and work on your issues. She deserves a hug from you or at least a prayer if she has passed on. The same applies to your father of course. The month will inspire as never before. Initially you don’t think anything special will happen this month but by mid-month all the rules of the game change. Be prepared to become the catalyst of change. Do it skillfully though. Radical change upsets people, so implement change with grace and poise. The reason for all this is Jupiter and Neptune are in Pisces.
Pisces Buddhists are sensitive and introspective. This month you are inspired in love and words. Write a poem, some prose or compose a dharma story. You are happy, witty and intelligent. Enjoy the stimulation while it lasts.
