Skywatch: Week of Feb. 21 to 28

340

By Flo Higgins
If you are looking for a compassionate partner or friend, look no farther than someone born this week. This Pisces has an understanding of kindness and service.
Pisces is the 12th sign in the zodiac and as the final sign, it is sensitive, conservative and emotional. Because this water sign is so sensitive, Pisces must watch their feeling nature.
If a Pisces becomes upset or confused because of the lack of compassion in people, they often select unbecoming behavior. This is how they choose to hide their disappointment and pain.
Now we are watching Justin Bieber, who is a Pisces and was born on March 1, 1995, as he deals with the pain of his success and fame.
Pisces, as sensitive as they are, find it difficult to deal with other people’s opinions of them. So, they often act out without any real thought.
People born this week: Kelsey Grammer, Feb. 21, 1955; Senator Edward “Ted” Kennedy, Feb. 22, 1932; Dakota Fanning, Feb. 23, 1983; Kristin Davis, Feb. 24, 1965; James Phelps, Feb. 25, 1986; Michael Bolton, Feb. 26, 1953; Katy Mara, Feb. 27, 1983; and Noureen DeWulf, Feb. 28, 1984.
At the end of this week, at 9 a.m. Feb. 28, Mercury will go direct. So, line up your contracts, go buy your new car or house or whatever you have been putting off. Now is the time.
The best time to start would be after 9 a.m. and before 6 p.m. on the 28th. The clocks are turned ahead on March 9, so the days will be longer and spring is just around the corner.
Aries (March 21 to April 20) The empowerment that comes with a job well done is about to knock on your door. Just go slowly, plan clearly and you will never deal with a bad decision again. Your life is moving along beautifully if you just pause as you move forward. And look for a new BFF and expect a successful relationship.
Taurus (April 21 to May 20) You are slowly making decisions that will change your life. With that in mind, you must also decide what to take with you from the past. Your new outlook on life is forcing this change. The key is letting go of the past and understanding your deep need to travel on a new road.
Gemini (May 21 to June 20) It is coming close to decision time. So, try being as cautious as you can possibly be. If you are able to do that, the next phase of your journey will be easy. You can properly handle any tension or disappointment. No more talk, just start taking action. A close pal could be a big help in this journey.
Cancer (June 21 to July 20) You need to focus on what you would really like to obtain in the next few weeks. Try to avoid nasty moods when life gets challenging. After all, it won’t last long and you will be the winner. Others want to help you, so let them, if possible. An old friend is looking for you.
Leo (July 21 to Aug. 20) It is time to be meticulous in organizing the details of your next project. You cannot afford to move too quickly when it comes to making money. After all, your new role in life should let you really shine. If you plan this move right, you will achieve your career goals.
Virgo (Aug. 21 to Sept. 20) This is a time to appreciate your good luck in getting things done on time. Your ever-ready nature makes it impossible to pull the wool over your eyes. So, keep your guard up, trust few and expect more responsibility, more money and more fun. Your time in the sun has arrived.
Libra (Sept. 21 to Oct. 20) If you haven’t argued with anyone in the past week, you deserve a prize. The energy you have been living with is dynamic and aggressive. Use it for making some business moves and let others do the same. Don’t waste your time on nonsense. You have too much to do.
Scorpio (Oct. 21 to Nov. 20) A surprise meeting could open some doors that you might have thought were closed forever. Consider some new offers as presented, but pause and check all details before making any final decisions. You will add to your future success if you just stay still now.
Sagittarius (Nov. 21 to Dec. 20) If you are hooking into constant surprises then it is obvious you have connected in a positive way to Neptune. So stay positive, then you may be involved in a serious dynamic relationship. Your life is turning you around for good.
Capricorn (Dec. 21 to Jan. 20) The tension of Pluto, Uranus and Mars on your sun is sometimes overwhelming. But, since the changes are now under way, you are learning to cope with them. That is good. A new love relationship could also brighten your life soon. Plus, more money will start rolling in.
Aquarius (Jan. 21 to Feb. 20) Reorganize and make the changes you have been planning now that the time is better. A new BFF will appear and business should start to flow in a new direction. If you feel anyone is shady, avoid a situation with them by listening to your inner voice. It will pay off big. Your goal should include stop wasting time.
Pisces (Feb. 21 to March 20) Try not to take too many people and their actions personally. Remember, their problems have nothing to do with you. They have to do with their issues. A new friend could turn out to be a real pal and could be helpful to you in the near future. Just watch your success unfold before you.
