Summary:  There is likely a past-life connection that involves a previous from a previous past-lifetime coming true.  It's almost as if some sort of self-defense mechanism had prevented you from experiencing this earlier, but now healing is occurring.  Neptune's role in this eclipse is to provide a cloud so that we cannot interfere or intervene with the workings of the universe.  We are probably feeling anxious, nervous and restless as a result not knowing how to prepare ourselves or plan because we don't know of know where things are headed. However, in the 2-3 weeks following the eclipse on February 26, the cloud will dissipate, in other words, the curtain will be raised, and you will see how life is playing out, and you can finally figure out how to act in it as you take center stage.  There is also a love connection to this conjunction; your love life will be affected in some way, such as your ability to give and receive love.

Summary: It is likely the Mars-Uranus conjunction happening at the time of the New Moon Solar Eclipse in Pisces is going to making a situation uncomfortable.  This likely involves an area of our lives where we had been deluding ourselves and had refused to move on from, keeping ourselves chained to it.  However, now, despite any protestations on our part, the all-knowing and better-knowing universe is intervening to help us get unstuck so that we can be receptive to the new beginnings that are being ushered and heralded in by the eclipse.

Cards: Prioritize; Compassion; Sensitivity

Summary:  This week will feel very chaotic as a result of the many energies coming from planetary interaction, so you are being advised to prioritize and to concentrate on the most important things.  Also, show compassion for yourself if you can't do it all.  You will be very sensitive to these many energies; for example, you might nervous, anxious, irritable or impatient.  Others will be as well, so be compassionate towards them too.

Summary:  We are being asked to trust the universe that now so happens to be taking matters into its own hands and getting itself involved in helping us to finally cut our way out of a situation that was taking us nowhere and for which we could not imagine a future.  This frees us up to have a 4 of Rods experience.  However, we are being advised to not engage in emotional discussion that is intended to pull at our heart strings, and we should instead shield ourselves between the lunar events of the New Moon Solar Eclipse in Pisces on February 26 and the Full Moon in Virgo on March 12 and be firm and resolute in our decision.

Card: 6 of Rods

Summary:  This conjunction will activate a portal that puts you in touch with past-life energies.  These energies might allow you to successfully do something that you have no experience with (in this lifetime).  Also, you might be picking up where you had left off in a previous lifetime;  this time, however, this is a great chance for victory and success.  There might be twinkles of recognition between you and others with whom you had a past-life experience.

It looks like the New Moon Solar Eclipse that is taking place in the sign of Pisces on February 26, 2017 will help people of Piscean persuasion move on from certain beliefs that might have limited their potential.  This will show itself in a readiness on Pisces' part to see the flip side of the coin, or rather to choose to make the best of a situation or to see the benefit of it.  Also, actions that involve showing appreciation and gratitude will be rewarded by the universe with much happiness and emotional contentment through the concept of like attracting like, or, in other words, the law of attraction.

Summary: It looks like in the next 6 months to a year that you will be looking out over the wall and choosing to leave your comfort zone to explore the various options then available to you.  After a period of deprivation (perhaps self-imposed), you will be ready to play catch up and to make up for lost time as you enter a period of intense creativity, joy and fun.  Here the warning is to not overdo it.  There will be an endless stream of abundance, and you shall want for naught.  It is important, however, to pace yourself and practice self-discipline, self-restraint and moderation.  Also make sure you have your own personal "womb" to retreat to where you can take the time to recharge your batteries and to replenish your resources.  At the end of this, you will be a new person in terms of mindset, beliefs, philosophies, outlook, etc.

Cards: Nurture; Gifts from God; Remember Who You Are

Summary: This week is about discovering nurturing your inner child.  How do you do that?  You pay attention to how you nurture others and apply that to yourself.  Oftentimes we forget who we are because our parents imposed their own wishes and needs upon us.  We, in turn, impose ours on those whom we nurture.  Observe how you are trying to get your own needs met through how you nurture others.  Instead, understand that others have their own set of needs and try to recognize the difference between theirs and yours.

Cards: Clear Your Space; Sensitivity; Compassion

Summary: This week's full moon lunar eclipse will help us clear away and let go of things that had long burdened us, but that we had delayed dealing with.  This will, of course, make us more sensitive and emotional as we face them one last time.  We must show compassion for and be forgiving of not only others, but also of ourselves, perhaps for having put it off for so long.

Summary:
You know have a chance for wonderful new beginnings if you break free of a confining and limiting situation which you were unhappy about and which had been draining you.  In fact you will gain a "pillar of strength," and much creative potential can be unleashed.  There is a direct connection between this reading the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse reading (Strength = Leo; both spreads had the Ace of Cups in the final position).

Summary:  The events leading to the outcome of reading will be further described in the Venus retrograde reading.  It looks like this Jupiter retrograde cycle will help alter and shift our perceptions so that we think more along the lines of "gray" and less "black and white."  The universe will be guiding us through experiences that will help us expand our mental outlook and beliefs in a way that we are then more flexible and less firm on having to understand things a certain way.

Summary:  After a period of being stuck in a type of stalemate and not knowing whether you had "won or lost," and therefore you did not move forward, you are now accepting closure with your heart rather having to know all the hows and whys, in other words, without answers that you would need to analyze to understand and that might have provided the clarity you sought.  The universe did not help you out in this regard, and the information the universe did share with you was conflicting.  Perhaps you didn't want to move on because that might have entailed admitting defeat for yourself, but now it looks like by the end of this eclipse's energies (6 months to 1 year), you will have opened yourself up to new possibilities, allowing Fortuna to "pour" her goodies upon you ;-)

Summary:
This Venus in Aries transit is strongly affected by the retrograde.  It looks like you'll either get a do-over, a second chance or you might even take a new approach to an old topic.  This likely involves something you had set your eyes on or had caught your interest before Venus entered Aries, but that didn't materialize.  The ultimate goal of the universe after this transit is to have you living in the moment, enjoying yourself and not planning ahead because when you don't think about the future, you don't have have worries or fears.  In fact, during this time period you will break out of and free yourself from self-imposed mental blockages that had prevented you from shining or reaching your potential.  The retrograde phase of this transit might prove somewhat difficult, complicated and indirect in its results as you work to achieve some form of stability, however, once Venus leaves its shadow you can expect major changes that lead to new beginnings that you already see coming.
