Full Moon occurs at 8:37 AM GMT on February 18th. The Moon is at 29:20 Leo conjunct the star Regulus. What this does is bring out secret activities and stresses matters of friends versus false friends and enemies. It speaks of power, violence and gains that don't last. Regulus is a 'royal star' of the nature of Jupiter and Mars; it denotes great expansiveness and force.
The Moon at 29:20 Leo and the Sun at 29:20 Aquarius are in exact aspect applying to the mean Lunar Node at 29:44 Sagittarius. This is a sure sign of dramatic events coming up in the world. The Node in Sagittarius is giving us the hint that it is in those parts of the world ruled by Sagittarius. The Arab countries, Australia, Spain, Southern France, Hungary, especially the area of Budapest, as well as the cities of Cologne and Stuttgart are places to watch as all of these are under Sagittarius. Watch the Middle East; this full Moon is bringing out turmoil.
The full Moon is opposite Mercury, Mars, Neptune and Sun. And it is happening during a major solar storm. The affects are extremely tense - and transformative. Something has to give.
The affects of the solar storm may soon bring increased volcanic and earthquake activity. It also will interfere with radio transmissions. Solar storms of this magnitude can also cause health problems in certain individuals. It concerns the ethers of the body (the medium thorugh which the electric vibrations of life are diffused), the etheric vibration of life flowing toward and away from the heart, the circulation of the bloodstream flowing toward and away from the lungs, and the nerve network. This can cause spasmodic affects including nervous tensions, cramping of muscles, and heart and circulatory conditions. The electrical system of the body can be affected. The Sun, Neptune, Mars and Mercury in Aquarius opposite the Moon in Leo make this all the more possible and tie the psychic principle, or sympathetic nervous system into all this. The best you can do in these conditions is not get worked up, but stay relaxed and calm. Make sure you drink plenty of water. It is better to let go of petty issues that get you worked up, and relax while this is happening over the next few days. Pay attention to your body. Keep calm and centered and don't worry. The more positive side of this coin is saying that our perceptions are being sharpened and some of us will recieve some remarkable inspiration.
As if the above advice does much good, the full Moon at 29 degrees says the world is at the end of its tether and is out of patience. This is a highly dramatic time, indeed.
With the North Lunar Node at 29 degrees Sagittarius we may look forward to when Uranus comes to 29 degrees Pisces between February 22nd and March 11th. During that time which straddles the coming new Moon on March 4th, we will see repercussions in the market to events now developing. It is probable that the market will retreat in the lunar period between March 4th and April 3rd.
In addition to the full Moon opposite Mercury, Mars, Neptune and the Sun, we notice that Venus at 16:13 Capricorn is exactly square Saturn at 16:46 Libra. Venus and Saturn are also in mutual reception. This means that getting around problems now is like jumping from the frying pan into the fire; attempts to avoid problems will now create problems.

This shows the governments trying to get around their problems with people in working classes including public services. It won't work; problems won't be resolved at all successfully now. The current problems are too difficult for the governments to handle.
