“It (Islam) was the first religion that preached and practiced democracy; for, in the mosque, when the call for prayer is sounded and worshippers are gathered together, the democracy of Islam is embodied five times a day when the peasant and king kneel side by side and proclaim: ‘God Alone is Great’… I have been struck over and over again by this indivisible unity of Islam that makes man instinctively a brother.”

If Your Birthday is Feb. 13
(The Day of Liveliness) | Aquarius Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
You have the opportunity to move forward on a particular issue that might have caused you to feel hurt or resentful. Behind the veil of that emotion is a source of personal power, on which you can firmly rely.

Written in the Planets
Mars and Venus both form squares to centaurs in Capricorn today. Take special care, particularly in relationships, to ensure everyone’s personal space and freedom is respected; yours as well as that of others. If plans are formed that would alter current commitments — however reasonable those plans might seem — weigh them carefully at this time, and proceed with caution, leaving room to retrace steps as far as possible.

If Your Birthday is Feb. 12
(The Day of the Unifier) | Aquarius Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
Aquarius is not one to lack the capacity for critical or independent thinking. Yet it may help you now to cultivate or sharpen this ability. Study every report with a skeptical eye. This isn’t the same as debunking whatever you hear without good reason; it’s about committing to yourself that you will draw your own conclusions.

Written in the Planets
Pallas squaring the Great Attractor looks like a comment on the limits of diplomacy. Civility and compromise are often useful in day-to-day life; yet there is also a point at which we must declare our position outright, at which it’s more important to be honest than amiable. Understand where that is for you and be clear on when you might need to raise your head above the parapet.

If Your Birthday is Feb. 11
(The Day of Improved Comfort) | Aquarius Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
You’re in an excellent position today to notice the patterns in your life and capitalize on them. Sure, you could just coast on whatever good feelings are coming your way. But why not work that energy, even if just a little? New pursuits, travel or anything that shifts your perspective could be especially beneficial. Changes made while you’re feeling optimistic can set especially productive developments in motion. Get to it.

Written in the Planets
Today the Moon enters Virgo, following close on the heels of the Leo Full Moon and eclipse. The days around and between eclipses are particularly fertile pattern-shifting phases; and Virgo is a great sign for spotting details and patterns, and for putting your ducks in a row. If you already have a plan in mind, great: start working it. If you don’t, see if something like organizing your physical space helps to clear the mental space you need to get the ball rolling. With the Aquarius Sun exactly trine Jupiter in Libra today, favorable winds are blowing. Sure, just getting the sail up on the mast will move you along a little. But with the sail up, your hand on the rudder and some navigational tools at the ready, you might really get somewhere should you choose to activate the potential.

What Do We Do About These Flesh-Eating Zombies?

There’s a proto-fascist in the White House, and a large group of people who are still in denial. What exactly are we supposed to do?

If Your Birthday is Feb. 10
(The Day of Acclaim) | Aquarius Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
One of your ruling planets is in a curious position right now: it’s conjunct a planet that signifies ‘amorality’, and it’s also conjunct the ineffable, soulful source of our ‘cosmic homing signal’. Keep your intuition turned on; be humble enough to question your own motives; and see if you can hear the call to serve the higher good. Today’s Full Moon and eclipse features the Sun in your sign, and it’s in direct contact with the situation just described. If ever there was a moment to step up into your dharma, this is an excellent one.

Written in the Planets
Tonight into Saturday, depending on your time zone, there will be a penumbral lunar eclipse with the Leo Full Moon. The Aquarius Sun and Leo Moon are aspecting several significant objects located all around the zodiac wheel. Some of these aspects indicate harmony and flow; others suggest a kind of uncomfortable process of continual adjustment. When you put those two types of energy together it can equal some genuine progress and movement. You can get more detailed treatment of this Full Moon eclipse in this week’s Planet Waves FM, and also on the Planet Waves website. The core of the message seems to be to focus on what matters most to you, and on what you love to do that you can offer to the world. As you set those positive patterns into motion, you begin to step into your dharma.

If Your Birthday is Feb. 9
(The Day of Vibrancy) | Aquarius Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
As we gear up towards the lunar eclipse, you may find yourself getting a recurring idea — one of those intuitions that hangs just on the edge of the consciousness. If you notice it, pay attention and dig deep. Somewhere within is likely to be a nugget of wisdom that could help you to see things in a whole new light.

Written in the Planets
The Uranus-Eris conjunction is aspected by both the Sun and Vesta today, drawing everyone’s attention once again to the weird displacement experience we’re all having. If your experience of this seeming alternate reality is getting a little too much, don’t forget that you always have the option of withdrawing for a little while. If necessary, take a more active approach — practice grounding your energy, or visit somewhere that makes you feel stronger or safer.

Leo Lunar Eclipse, Muslim Ban and How to Be an Artist

If Your Birthday is Feb. 8
(The Day of Precognition) | Aquarius Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
Your consciousness is especially fertile right now. And while you may be tempted to hold tight to an established thought, consider taking a moment to weigh one or more other sides to the story. It looks like that will be easier for you today than it often can be. Sometimes the best ideas or richest forms of awareness emerge from seeming chaos. Go with that flow.

Written in the Planets
When you think about your relationships and your part in them, do they seem governed by (or based on) emotions more than on rational thought? That makes sense: love is an emotion, and the people we fall in love with (or have ‘chemistry’ with) often seem to defy prediction. Yet you can also look at your relationships as a reflection of your deepest values, put into action or mirrored back to you. Today Venus in Aries opposes the objects Logos and Makemake in Libra. The suggestion here is that there’s a certain logic to how things came to be in your most intimate partnerships. If you’re having trouble seeing it, that might signal a need to look a little deeper within yourself. The people you’re involved with present information, but not the answers.

This Week’s Horoscope for Aquarius by Eric Francis Coppolino
Over the next few days, the Sun in your sign will make a series of productive and useful aspects to important planets, among them Saturn, Jupiter and the Uranus-Eris conjunction. That means you get to raise your profile and, in a sense, play in a league much higher than you’re usually accustomed to. If you want to take advantage of this opportunity, conduct yourself appropriately: dress properly for every occasion. Treat authority figures with respect, without kissing ass. And most of all, make sure you know what you’re talking about before you open your mouth to speak. That means being wholly conscious of the limits of your knowledge (which is not exactly the specialty of those born under your birth sign). Also, you’ll soon become privy to inside information, which you must treat with the utmost confidence.

If Your Birthday is Feb. 7
(The Day of Utopia) | Aquarius Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
When your intellectual mind is telling you one thing but your body or emotions seem to be telling you another, which do you prioritize? That is, do you tend to camp out on one side of the equation without allowing the other side to influence you? It would seem that the wisest among us strive to take all sources of internal understanding into account, without letting just one set up an unquestioning blockade. If you can consider, question and integrate both your head and your gut, you may find that reality-checking yourself becomes a more informed process.

Written in the Planets
When the Moon enters Cancer today, it places added emphasis on emotions. This heightened sensitivity could dovetail with Ceres, which is in Venus-ruled Taurus and is making the body-emotion connection more palpable. Yet the sky is also offering a dose of slightly detached intellectualism via the Sun in Aquarius and Mercury, which enters Aquarius today. The setup suggests a classic question: do you let your mind or your emotions guide you? However, it’s a false choice; both elements of your awareness and experience are valuable. The question is not so much about pitting them against each other, as it is about recognizing whether you are only considering one while discounting or ignoring the other. Once you can see the proportions for what they are, you can sidestep stubborn myopia and use all the tools at your disposal.

If Your Birthday is Feb. 6
(The Day of Popularity) | Aquarius Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
You have the ability to make a completely new start in certain areas of your life. This will require a clearout of some sort, whether psychic or physical. Take the time to be discerning and thorough about what you need and what may be discarded; doing this properly will give added impetus and freshness to the change.

Written in the Planets
Jupiter’s station retrograde is likely to present a moment of truth concerning matters of generosity and openness. How might you practice either of these, if you had no restraints on your time and energy? Of course, restraints do exist; and there seems to be so much that needs mending that it’s hard to know where to begin. Yet Jupiter is asking each of us now to consider where we might make changes, and how far we are following our own ideals and wishes.
