February 2006 Hor-O-Scopes
February is funky.
You may think it's because we're in the doldrums of winter, or because February contains Valentine's Day (a.k.a. "the day when I can only assume the rest of the free world is getting lucky and I am watching a CSI re-run and eating microwave popcorn for dinner hate you hate you.") But it's really a planetary issue.
Listen, when Mercury is in Uranus (HAH HAH HAH) we all feel a little uncomfortable in our private parts. Lots of surprise communications. A full moon on the 13th, with Venus un-retrograding and Jupiter humping through the zodiac. Ya'll. There's just a lot going down in the stars for this, the Short Month To Crazy.
Advice to all signs: Chocolate goes great with red wine.
---
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 - Feb. 18)
Would you like fries with that Quarter Pounder of Stress? Your commitments to school or work combined with the constant demands from your family and friends have you near the end of your rope this month. That urge to escape your life and run on autopilot is particularly strong near month's end. You might begin harboring serious fantasies of sitting alone on a mountaintop and pondering your navel. Take a deep breath, clear you calendar for at least one full day in February, and commit to some serious alone time before you become commit-able. You may long for a padded room ... but I hear that straightjackets make your butt look big.
PISCES (Feb. 19 - March 20)
It's half past backbone time. Remember when you thought your lucky number was 1-800-2PLEASE? Indeed, the people-pleaser gene is so strong in you that I sometimes wonder if you have ever done anything just to please yourself. Have you? Wait, don't answer that. Ya'll just start getting all defensive and that does neither of us any good. Try instead to remember your daydreams, the ones that involve you being successful and happy. Your real wants are right there, beneath the surface. As soon as you realize that the most important person to please is the person in that daydream, which by the way should be YOU, you'll be on your way.
ARIES (March 21- April 19)
Sure, some people may think you are self-centered or arrogant, but is it your fault that the universe has called upon you to be a born leader? Yes, sometimes you get so impatient waiting for things to happen that you make impulsive decisions. And, yeah, you often get frustrated when people don't catch on to things as quickly as you do, and so you get a little snappish. But who can blame you, right, it's just your nature. In February, please try to have some patience with those of us not quite up to speed yet. Also, with Mars finally vacating your Money house, you will cease being stressed about money all the time and you can finally take me to dinner. Hi!
TAURUS (April 20 - May 20)
Use or be used. Ever heard that phrase? No? It's a little self-serving as far as mottos go, a relic from the "Me" years of the plastic 1980s (oh, how I loved you, sweet little 1980s. Come back to Crazytown.) During the self-help boom of the 1990s, such crash, selfish mottos became obscure while we dug deep, found the child within, took a course in miracles and Celestine Prophesied. Now it's the mid-to-late 2000s, and we're stuck in a sort of motto-less rut. I hope that February finds you developing a new personal motto, because I think every Taurus needs one. "Because I can!" sounds nice. So does "I am the captain of my own ship!" Aye, aye.
GEMINI (May 21 - June 21)
I don't usually start out with actual horoscope-y stuff, but Venus is un-retrograding this month on the 3rd, so that's good. For you. Who will need to sign something or make some decision or hell, just go shopping, and the planets say, "Yes!" After the 3rd, of course. And then Mars is going freaky and moving into Gemini on the 17th, which is Really. Really. Good. For. You. Now, about that shopping ... test drive a new pair of shoes, a skirt, a handbag (mmmm, handbags) or some other unexpected little treat. Whatever power struggle you have found yourself locked in for the past few weeks (months?) will be best resolved by walking away, and I suggest a walk to the nearest mall. The best route might involve a trip to the salon as well, for a pre-spring trim and a manicure. Ya'll have worn yourselves weary with constant over-analysis of a particularly thorny relationship, and you deserve a little retail therapy.
CANCER (June 22 - July 22)
Lots of people talk all kinds of smack about Cancers, like how we're so sensitive, and moody and such little homebodies. But they never talk about the COOL things we are: we're very open to new ideas, we love to get introspective and work on improving ourselves, and we'll get our crazy on in the self-help aisle, ya'll know what I mean. We're creative and funny and know lots of useful trivia. Ok, maybe that last part was just me. So even if Valentine's Day has got you down, I don't want you to buy into the bad press. The skies are real funky for Cancer in February, but it's funky-good -- especially the full moon on the 13th and the New Moon on the 28th. Venus has been screwing with us since December, and we've all been asking, "Where is the love?" Our need to be acknowledged is second only to our need for melancholy, so this is a perplexing state for a Cancer. But everything we're doing now is laying the groundwork for the social upswing and happy summer ahead of us. Jupiter is hanging out in the Love house until the end of November, ya'll, so I might actually go on a date this year. And if I can do it, SO CAN YOU.
LEO (July 23 - August 22)
BLAME SATURN. All that stuff that happened and kind of sucked? Blame Saturn. But later this month, once the Hallmark moments of Valentine's Day have faded like a bad memory, you'll begin to see a subtle shift in both your energy and your luck. I feel like I should be sending you HappyGrams or something, since the ick and muck of the past three months is (mostly) finally behind you. The full moon this month is in Leo, and I suspect you may be one of those getting lucky while I am home watching re-runs. I'm just saying is all. But I'm not hating on you -- you deserve this one. The metamorphosis from the grey days of winter to the hopeful weeks of spring may make you feel cocky. Swagger.
VIRGO (August 23 - Sept. 22)
Build a shrine to gossip this month... you might as well, since you've been privy to your fair share of grapevine chatter these past few weeks. All the rumors and whispering can't obscure the reality of your situation, however, and setting out on the warpath of truth will do you no good. There is no reasoning with craziness, remember? So before you light a candle at the alter of justice, evaluate your position as clearly as possible and start planning some ways to deal with the invasive lunacy around you. The good news: YOU ARE NOT THE INSANE ONE.
LIBRA (Sept. 23 - Oct. 23)
I'm so jealous! All the planets are lining up for Libras this month, first, there's Mars Moving into your Hot Mama house, and ya'll have a full moon in your Shiny Happy House and Venus is un-retrograding just in time to hang out in your house of Big Pimpin' ... now that's Astrology Gone Right. Go ahead and indulge in that post V-day red velvet heart full of chocolates. Feel smug. Your hard work last month is beginning to pay off, and the rewards are part of the goal!
SCORPIO (Oct. 24 - Nov. 21)
Meet Super Scorpio, crimefighter extraordinaire, destroyer of evil, sole defender of free thinking! Super Scorpio is scouring the planet, making a mental list of who is naughty and who is deplorable, making it safe for the weaker zodiac signs to self-express. Our heroine is fighting off evil left and right! The Bullying Bad Guys are closing in fast, and the Lying Scum she battled just last month has reared his nasty head. Pop those villains like a pimple, Super Scorpio! Use your super-strength powers of intuition to stomp out bad choices! Evil is no match for your ability to accessorize! (Ya'll I am so sorry. I am totally stoned on cough syrup.)
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 - Dec. 21)
Unless it's the mental "Bag Lady Meets Flea Market" state you're after, you need to get busy and do some serious house cleaning. You are surrounded by clutter, both physically and metaphorically. One way of dealing with your stuff is to think of how happy it will make you to be free of it. The letting-go process is the easy part, it's the actual down-and-dirty of search and destroy that scares you. Make a list of every single thing that's annoying you -- from your leaning tower of laundry to the whiny friend who complains nonstop -- and get busy paring down. This month is no time for hanging on to the past if the past is kind of moldy and bringing you down. Purge, little Sag. Purge.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 - Jan. 19)
There is a grace period for lethargy -- it's called February. It's the month that isn't really cold deep winter, but it's not yet the thaw of spring. No wonder it's characterized in classical literature by words like "bleak" "grim" and "dreary." This February gives you a full moon in Leo on the 13th, which is good for you to re-charge your little Cappy engine and falls in a peak time of a perfectly direct Venus, so shop now or forever hold your peace. Stupid Mercury is retrograding in March, so Hi, Jennifer? Let's go shopping this month for cute shoes for the Paris trip, because March will be Mercury-icky for shopping. Capricorns also have some love junk in their chart this month, all really good, and I'm not expounding because I'm sort of jealous and kind of need lunch. Love ya'll.

Ooh, swagger. I'll have to spend the month practicing.
Posted by: Anmiryam at February 2, 2006 12:43 PM
Anmiryam, I would like to see that ;)
Posted by: laurie at February 2, 2006 12:44 PM
Quarter pounder of stress?! Like, don't they make something bigger than that?! But you know - I *HAVE* blocked one full day for myself (at least until everyone gets home) this month. My birfday. I plan on sleeping in, yarn whoring, and watching Judge Alex. Yay me! Yay you and your horrorscopes!
Posted by: MonkeyGurrrrl at February 2, 2006 12:51 PM
ok. we are in our workroom reading the 'scopes for each of us and laughing so raucously we've been shussed (geez!) Since the straitjackets are not a viable option, we will continue to lighten our atmosphere via you, you clever girlie! Thank you!!!
Posted by: the library staff at February 2, 2006 12:54 PM
At least your birthday isn't on Valentines Day like mine is. I never celebrate it on that day because my friends always have romantic plans with their husbands/boyfriends. Not that I'm resentful or anything..much.
Posted by: Debbie at February 2, 2006 12:55 PM
I just LOVE being a libra right now!!! Good things!
Posted by: Miss Mantoan at February 2, 2006 12:55 PM
i'm a libra, thanks for the good words
Posted by: bess at February 2, 2006 01:07 PM
mmmm, red zin and chocolate... my favorite dinner.
Purging? What's that? Oh you mean clearing out three years worth of magazines hiding behind my knitting chair? Or the piles of clothes that are destined for goodwill? hmm.
Posted by: Kim at February 2, 2006 01:09 PM
Can I hold you to the swaggering? It sounds so impossible. Reruns are my life.
Posted by: Carrie K at February 2, 2006 01:14 PM
Hehehe I'm reading the Celestine Prophecy for the 47th time right now, how did you know? :)
Wait... there's something wrong with microwave popcorn for dinner?
Posted by: Carma at February 2, 2006 01:15 PM
Yes, I am a true Scorpio, which is a blessing and a curse. I did pour a cocktail over the head of a much deserving individual the other night who offended me. I hope that this qualifies as "crime fighting". BTW: I and several others who I know do not celebrate the VD holiday. While I applaud jewelry and perfume specials, it is hardly ever a "romantic" day. The restaurant, flower, candy industries have conspired to say get romantic dammit. I hardly find it fun to have a special extra expensive menu and to be herded like cattle through a "romantic" dinner. Add to that the jacked up flower prices, etc. And if you have a sweetie and he forgets, there's hard feelings to be had.
Miss Wendy believes that it is more special to be surprised with this shit out of the blue, in August. Also, it is best to be kind to your SO ALL year. Miss Wendy has no sweetie right now and 'tis a good thing because no one spoils her like she can spoil herself. Keep that in mind when you go out to buy shoes and yarn. Hope you feel better soon Aunt Purl!
Posted by: Miss Wendy at February 2, 2006 01:15 PM
Hee! I'm loving the Libra horoscope this month. Make mine a red velvet heart filled with Jelly Bellies. My ripening belly should start to really round out this month. :) (though I get no wine with the candy)
Posted by: cant_talk_knitting at February 2, 2006 01:20 PM
So I'm a born leader? Yay. And i so need the no money worries. Now's that's great news.
When shall I expect you in Boston for dinner?
Posted by: Mary in Boston at February 2, 2006 01:21 PM
Yes! Like all the other libras who hang on your every pronouncement, Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! KissKissKiss! I'll name my second-born shawl after you! I swear!
I was convinced you were trying to figure out how to say nicely that I was once and for all doomed.
THANK YOU!!!!
Posted by: k at February 2, 2006 01:28 PM
Ha. My motto as a Taurus is "What's mine is mine, until the day I die and then it's still mine."
This includes all things like jewelry, books, yarn, friends, cosmetics, ex-spouses (yes, that's plural, you wanna talk Crazytown here?), vehicles, food, clothes...
Posted by: roggey at February 2, 2006 01:29 PM
I really am full of useful trivia. Depending on your definition of useful. LOL
woot woot to all the libras ... also have ya'll noticed I have really glommed on to this slang the cool kids are using these days? lord help me.
Posted by: laurie at February 2, 2006 01:34 PM
Hi - my first time posting a comment here - but a long time fan!! :)
Lovin' my Cancer horoscope, esp. the part about "The skies are real funky for Cancer in February, but it's funky-good" ... you always crack me up!
P.S. I just started a blog (it's really kind of boring compared to yours) and I put a link to yours on it - hope that was okay!! I want to share your humor with everyone I know!
Posted by: Candice at February 2, 2006 01:42 PM
I hate when I get mercury up my butt. Fortunately, that hasn't happened since the last time someone tried to take my temperature. And the, it wasn't the mercury (per se) that was the worst; it was the glass shards.
Any chance we'll see you at WeHo tonite?
Posted by: MonkeyGurrrrl at February 2, 2006 01:42 PM
BUT EVERYTHING MAKES MY BUTT LOOK BIG--oh wait...maybe it's my butt that makes my butt look big. something to think about while I climb up the mountaintop to contemplate my navel.
Posted by: erin at February 2, 2006 01:45 PM
Dude - I think you smacked my nail straight on the head. I'm the Aquarius girl crouched in the corner, sucking her thumb, rocking back and forth and sobbing quietly.
I hate work.
Posted by: Libby at February 2, 2006 01:52 PM
thanks candice :)
Monkey! I will not be at snb tonight... I have walking pneumonia. Did you know pneumonia could walk? Seriously. What a stupid name is that? A walking disease? good grief. I still think it's the evian flu...
Posted by: laurie at February 2, 2006 01:56 PM
erin... my butt makes my butt look big, too. LOL
Posted by: laurie at February 2, 2006 01:56 PM
the rocking pneumonia and the boogie-woogie flu. Am I dating myself too much with that reference?! Well. At least I'm good company.
Posted by: MonkeyGurrrrl at February 2, 2006 02:00 PM
A motto, huh? Hrm....
Posted by: Imbrium at February 2, 2006 02:04 PM
whoa. How did you know I was cleaning house today? Thanks for the validation, and the encouragement to make the resident Aries take me out for dinner!
Posted by: Alex at February 2, 2006 02:09 PM
Psst! Post office? Been there lately??
Thanks for today's posting--we've missed you!

Posted by: Helen at February 2, 2006 02:11 PM
As a Capricorn I PROTEST the length of that horoscope! And demand more! Exposition! No farewells disguised as authentic paragraphs!! Mercury in retrograde in March? Holy fucking SHIT. I will close myself off in my bedroom and not emerge until, say, June. When does it flip itself right again?
Posted by: Éireann at February 2, 2006 02:12 PM
sitting alone on a mountaintop and pondering my navel...any reason I shouldn't be doing this already? Oh yeah, there are cheesecake squares that need to be baked.
Posted by: shananigans at February 2, 2006 02:18 PM
Ah, chocolate, nature's perfect breakfast food. Also lunch, dinner, tea and snack.
You want me to become less of a people pleaser? OK, anything for you.
Posted by: Lucia at February 2, 2006 02:26 PM
I refuse to be patient with those who cannot keep up (i mean, really?), but I will GLADLY take everyone out to dinner. Woohoo cashola!
Posted by: liz e at February 2, 2006 02:29 PM
Okay, I'm a little lost. I'm Libra and I understood everything after the mention of chocolate! Could someone explain that most-promising fortune to me, the horoscope illiterate?
Thanks!!!
Debbie: Happy Birthday to you! You share my Mom's birthday! (May she rest in peace.) We always thought she was lucky because she ALWAYS got presents for V-Day!! But finding Valentines/Birthday cards from her 7 children was real pain in the neck!
Hearts and chocolate to you, and to you too Laurie!! Feel better soon!
Posted by: mctwin at February 2, 2006 02:35 PM
Bring on the Good Funk - I am ready! Although my Sag moon tells me that I'm better off clearing out the wreckage - purge away and then the Funkmeister can show me with lurv!
Posted by: Robby at February 2, 2006 02:45 PM
I am a Cancer and you are so right about us!!!
And it is true that there are lots of great things with Cancers :)
Posted by: Pumpkin Pie at February 2, 2006 02:59 PM
And, yeah, you often get frustrated when people don't catch on to things as quickly as you do, and so you get a little snappish.
Wow... second day of the month and this has already happened a few times.
Posted by: Zardra at February 2, 2006 03:02 PM
"Our need to be acknowledged is second only to our need for melancholy..." Oh. Yeah. Nothing like seeing yourself in words to bring about an epiphany.
Thus proving true the part about Cancer's being introspective. Ha!
Posted by: Nancy R. at February 2, 2006 03:03 PM
So you think I (fellow Cancer) am gonna get a date this year? Hmmmm.... Well if it actually happens, you'll get the credit! ;-)
Posted by: Mary at February 2, 2006 03:11 PM
mary ... basically Jupiter is all like, "Please, Cancer! Have love!" until end of November... of course, it will require you (and me) to be open to it, meaning I have to leave my house now and then (boo). LOL
mctwin ... it just means that the planets are sitting very favorably positioned in your chart this month. You have a little help in the money sector, love sector, communications sector and home life. All very good!
Posted by: laurie at February 2, 2006 03:14 PM
Walking pneumonia for real? Oh my goodness you sweet thing, I hope you are drinking lots of liquids, etc. etc.
Thanks for the Pisces entry, I'm pleasing myself by making a scarf for ME! Of course, it will probably go into the pile of others that I don't wear, but whatever...
Feel better real soon.
Posted by: Christine G. at February 2, 2006 03:31 PM
thanks christine! i am so sorry i missed your open house...
yes, I have something called walking pneumonia. wonder if it's because of the treadmill I bought har har. ouch. hurts to laugh.
I'm going home now... ya'll have a good day :)
Posted by: laurie at February 2, 2006 03:34 PM
You DID NOT just say Mercury is in Uranus. Good heavens. Anyway, hooray for Cappy love junk - and I can't wait to tell my mother she should swagger! :)
Posted by: Julie at February 2, 2006 03:34 PM
Love you!! More advice from one Pisces to the rest of y'all Pisces: Laurie is right. I had to move 1300 miles to find my backbone, but I'll tell ya...it sure is nice to have one. There's nothing more satisfying than living your life for your ownself! Not to say you can't still do for others, but you gotta think what's best for you first.
You go Laurie with your bad self!!
Posted by: taral at February 2, 2006 04:01 PM
Hey, can I be a Gemini instead of a Sag this month? Pretty please ... with cherries on top??? Because retail therapy sounds a HELL of a lot better than house-cleaning. So let's just pretend I was born in June. K? K! Thanks! :) Whoo hoo!
Posted by: Kat at February 2, 2006 04:03 PM
Dammit, you were spying at my huge piles of books in my office again, weren't you? Hrm?
Maybe I'll finally get the caterer all lined up and I'll feel all mentally better. :)
Posted by: Gail at February 2, 2006 04:06 PM
hmm...does buying lots of yarn count for GEMINI? Ill need a lot of retail therapy after this week is out...
Posted by: midnightsky at February 2, 2006 05:18 PM

I was a bit worried when I read about funky skies but then you turned it around. You have given me yet another excuse to keep going out on a regular basis. I mean when I throw that huge birthday party this summer I've gotta be able to invite a ton of folks.
Oh, and I thought that it was totally a Cancerian thing to have a wealth of useful/useless information. Perhaps I will harness this knowledge for money and try out for Jeopardy.
Posted by: Dagny at February 2, 2006 05:40 PM
*MUAH*
That's a big kiss from yet another Libra. Yep. My life is already thrown into high gear for the month, but it's nice to hear it's not all supposed to go to hell by the 28th or anything.
Got a new place to live (byebye Ex!), got a new boy (hello E!), and all in all just feeling tickled to death with myself.
So here's my fingers crossed for you to find all the fabulous, exciting happiness you're looking for too. And soonish! :-D
Posted by: mivox at February 2, 2006 05:48 PM

I'm convinced that you've been spying on me. How DARE you tell me to ^!%#@ relax? Stress is the only thing that keeps me on my toes! And warning me that straitjackets make my butt look big won't dissuade me, my ass looks big already. Nyeh.
Posted by: Samantha at February 2, 2006 09:50 PM
As a worry wart Virgo it is good to hear that I am not the insane one! I was starting to have my doubts :-) Chocolate and red wine as well... things are looking up!
Posted by: Janine at February 3, 2006 03:07 AM
I'm sure hoping Libra is right. Have a good day.
Posted by: Estee at February 3, 2006 04:04 AM
Walking pneumonia? The germs are tired of you bad-mouthing them. Take care of yourself! Lots of soup, and all that stuff. (By the way, you're right on schedule for getting horribly sick after all that stress.) You get better, and lay about with cats, and all that.
Posted by: k at February 3, 2006 04:52 AM
Swaggering is NOT a problem for us leos!

Posted by: IngridH at February 3, 2006 08:08 AM
Dear Purly, this Cancer is gonna do all she can damned well do other than gettin' naked on a street corner for quarters to get herself a date! Woo!
And that means that Saturday, I brave the elements to join a bunch of "Young Single Adults" in some sort of wintery activity (haha, you wanna go sledding but the rain's washed all the snow away so it'll be all sitting around, sipping at hot chocolate and maybe pondering sliding down the mudhill). Man, wish me luck because I'll need it.
Posted by: Kit at February 3, 2006 09:01 AM
as a libra, i sincerely hope you are right.
it's been a rough month (plus) and i could use some positivity in the house of big pimpin.
Posted by: miss kendra at February 3, 2006 09:28 AM
I don't know how you do it. Every month since you started these, you've nailed me (a pisces). I mean spot on, dead f*ing on the money.
I've never given any credence to horoscopes before I read yours, but now I'm starting to think there may be something to this whole astrology thing that I don't understand...
Posted by: Corey at February 3, 2006 10:02 AM
Another Capricorn here! Love junk?... Good love junk? Please, tell me more! Pleeeease... :)

Is it sad that my first thought was "woo-hoo! there's CSI on valentine's day!" Alas, vday is not a thursday, so I guess I'll have to content myself with watching the re-runs on Spike (the extra benefit is that I doubt that 'tv for guys' does much to observe the day)
Posted by: Amelia at February 3, 2006 09:58 PM
You're soSO right about the Pisces people-pleaser gene, but this Pisces woman is old enough to have grown a backbone many years ago, so I'm just gonna assume I'm on my way. ;-)
Hope you're feeling better, Laurie. Walking pneumoniabirdflu is the pits. :-/

Good gawd I hope you are bang on with your Leo-scope this month Laurie. My water heater is suffering a greivous wound this morning and is slated for an uncerimonial death later today. I think that getting some luvin later this month would indeed help to offset this craptastic day and all the others there has been in the last three months. Well, at least my cats are still healthy and climbing over each other to be the first to sit in my lap! YAY!

I am a Leo and I regret to say that I was not getting any last night. Went to dinner and a movie with a friend who introduced me and my current BF, so that she would have someone to be with on Valentine's day. WHOA, was that the wrong thing to do. We both ended up hurt at the end of the evening. Sharp words were said, etc. Someone was an hour late getting to the restaurant. I should have stayed home last night.
