CYCLES OF THE HEAVENSFEBRUARY - AQUARIUS
With an incremental increase in winter light and the newly emerging shafts of green life from hard frosted earth, the Sun leaves behind the deep hibernation of midwinter and the grounded pragmatism of Capricorn. From 20th January it ascends now into the celestial realms of Aquarius and the temenos of fixed air, from whose clear and rarefied heights the Water Bearer pours forth his divine inspiration to humanity. Here we are refreshed in the sparkling stream of consciousness which flows from heaven to earth, opening our minds to new concepts, loosening old mental constructs as new ideas arise before us and bringing future possibilities into our awareness. Here we enter the conceptual and abstract realms where we are liberated to create and explore new mental forms and expand our horizons to new conceptual limits. Ruled by Saturn, this sign unites mind with form and serves to bring through the new collective impulses and ideas whose time has come to be embodied and enlivened in matter. This, indeed, is the sign of the intellectual pioneer who brings new ideas into being on behalf of all humanity and, as form follows thought, enables a new world to arise. Individually at this time, we too can explore fresh ideas and thoughts of how we would like to refashion our own world, and we may be inspired with creative possibilities which can, in due course, manifest in our lives.
