Written in the Planets
The emphasis of the sky has now shifted from Aquarius to Pisces, with the entrance of Mercury followed by the Sun. This usually has a gentler feel, and allows the intuitive centers of our minds to open up like flowers in the spring -- if we let them. It's important to find the balance between planting one's feet in concrete and floating off into some misty etheric realm. Each of us needs groundedness and imagination, so make sure you have both to hand.

Daily Horoscope for February 18, 2018 | By Eric Francis Coppolino
If Today is Your Birthday
You are accustomed to living life on the edge, as if on the border between two countries, or in a time of profound transformation. The current world matches your inner reality beautifully, and you're well adapted not just to survive, but to grow and thrive in these strange times we're living in. Remember how sensitive you are, and take care of yourself above all else. You share a birthday with Toni Morrison, Dr. Dre, and Molly Ringwald.
Aries
Aries (March 20-April 19) -- The Sun is about to enter the angle of your solar chart where you can look into your own thoughts like a mind-reader. It may seem odd to think you have to use telepathy to understand yourself, though that's a useful way to think of it. Slow down and focus inwardly. You will learn plenty.

Taurus
Taurus (April 19-May 20) -- The Sun's sign change today will help you set down some of the responsibility you've been carrying for a while, though there's still important work to be done. You can, however, lean on others more than you have lately, and count on the fact that they sincerely care enough to help you.

Gemini
Gemini (May 20-June 21) -- Mercury, the Sun and other planets are now in your house of reputation, responsibility and ambition. Make your talents, abilities and accomplishments known in ways subtle and overt. Yet, since the sign Pisces is involved, be gentle. Leave people room to figure out who you are.

Cancer
Cancer (June 21-July 22) -- The Sun enters your fellow water sign Pisces today, which will let off some of the pressure you've been feeling. You'll have a better sense of your future as apart from what many people around you may think and feel. Given the state of the world, be grateful that your life is on the upswing.

Leo
Leo (July 22-Aug. 23) -- Today, the Sun enters the angle of your solar chart where the deeper level of relationships is negotiated. This can be slick territory for you, and it's not always easy to get a clear understanding. You will need to compare what you feel, what you believe, and what you know for sure.

Virgo
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) -- You simply must pluck up some self-confidence. What you want will not necessarily come to you, though it's likely to be ready and waiting if you will go to it -- and open your mouth to speak. It's a lot more fun to take your own risks, anyway, rather than letting others do all the daring.

Libra
Libra (Sep. 22-Oct. 23) -- The Sun changes signs to your beloved cousin Pisces today. The coming week will be all new players in a whole new operetta. The sky is soaked in water right now, which calls for a loving, creative and, most of all, sober approach to life. Guide the dream of existence with your eyes open.

Scorpio
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) -- Today the Sun enters your sympathetic water sign Pisces, which also happens to be the most creative and adventurous area of your solar chart. Despite your gritty, no-BS personality, you love the soft and sensual side of life. You were born a scorpion; though, deep down, you adore the fishes.

Sagittarius
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 22) -- Today Mars in your sign is conjunct one of the most prodigious points in the known universe: the Great Attractor. It's fitting that this ocean of power is in your sign (for details, search the word "Laniakea"). You are indeed the great attractor, and you can draw to you anything you want.

Capricorn
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) -- The Sun joining many other planets in your house of words and ideas will give you the moxie to say what you mean, and mean what you say. This is all an experiment, though what human society must figure out is that it's defined by its messages, and its tools. You create yourself as you go.

Aquarius Solar Eclipse Reading from Planet Waves

Dear Friend and Reader:

I've just finished the Aquarius audio reading. It's now available for instant access.

This is a separate project from the annual edition, different in every way. This is a 75-minute astrology reading in two sessions, based on Thursday's solar eclipse in your sign -- the last solar eclipse in Aquarius until Feb. 17, 2026.

Planet Waves
Chart for Thursday's solar eclipse. The monograph behind it is by the German philosopher Dieter Duhm.
This chart has a lot to say about relationships, self-esteem, family and ancestral matters. I do my best to help you orient inwardly to experience these dimensions of growth and healing not only as real, but as accessible, workable places to focus your energy and time.

Your reading is still available at 33% off, for $44. After the eclipse the price will go up to $66, where we will leave it.

My audio readings are some of the most unusual astrology you'll encounter. I believe they go deeper than the work that most professional astrologers do, reaching the spiritual essence of the chart's message, though without the need for a natal chart. This reading will stand up to many playings.

Doing this work takes experience and preparation; if sold as "self help" these readings would be going for many times the price. My intention is to keep them accessible and affordable.

I've prepared a sample of the reading lasting about six minutes, which you can play as an mp3, or download as a zip file. The music is an original piece by Vision Quest, the Planet Waves in-house ensemble.

My method of reading opens up so many dimensions that I could devote hours to each chart. Yet this reading distills certain vital messages, catching you up on the past few months of Saturn in Capricorn, and previewing the transits of Chiron in Aries and Uranus in Taurus.

I'll be following up with a tarot reading in a month or two, a feature that's included with your reading, though is about to be split off as a separate product. That's not delivered on a schedule -- it's ready when it's ready.

Your reading also includes access to last year's audio reading (so that you can review it) as well as The Book of Your Life 2017 written reading.

Thank you for being a Planet Waves customer, and for trusting me as your astrologer.

With love,

Aquarius
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- The week begins with the Sun and Mercury in Pisces, which is another way of saying that the rising tide lifts all ships. Or, to use an astrological metaphor, your sign represents the water bearer, and Pisces represents the water. Now is the time to fill your jug, so you have plenty to give away.

Pisces
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) -- At long last, the Sun enters your birth sign today, which will do wonders for your confidence. For the past month your life has been like driving down a dark highway with the headlights off. All at once the lights will come on. First, take the time to notice exactly where you are.
