Friday, January 2nd - Today is a fairly benign day astrologically. We are mostly preparing for the big grand cross on Sunday and the upcoming full moon. The waxing moon is in social Gemini until tomorrow night. This makes tonight a good time to socialize and enjoy yourself. Several different moon in Gemini aspects come our way over the course of the morning and afternoon. There may be some need to rove and roam. You may find you have a hard time keeping still, or are unable to focus on one thing at a time. At 4pm EST the Moon trines with its North Node. This is a good time to take care of unfinished emotional business. Gemini Moon ensures that it won't be too heavy to deal with these things now and the Node gives us a karmic boost should we try to make things right. Get what you need to done and then take the night off. Carry a carnelian.
Saturday, January 3rd - Today Venus moves into the sign of Aquarius. This is a rather cool blue place for Venus, and gives love and romance a dose of the bizarre. Let go of expectations and enjoy thinking outside the box when it comes to both creative projects, and romances. The moon is quite active today. It begins by turning void of course at 6:55am EST, where it will stay until 8:08 tonight. Gemini void of course moons make it a good idea to not share too many ideas with others, unless they are of a light nature and don't require too much response. Wait to have important discussions until later tonight. The moon enters the warm sign of Cancer at about 9pm EST this evening, and this will mark an immediately need to be with those you care about, or just to get home for some quiet time. The sun in conjunction with Pluto this evening will make you want to get to the bottom of everything. No details will be missed, but with a void of course moon it's best to wait a bit until you come to any premature conclusions. The moon moves into quincunx with three different planets today at some point: Mercury, Venus and Saturn. Quincunx aspects are vaguely uncomfortable, so there may be some difficulty in relating to others or seeing where they are coming from. Again, hold your tongue and wait until later tonight or tomorrow morning to discuss anything of importance. Carry any blue stone to help your throat chakra and increase communication.
Sunday, January 4th - Today is a massive day on the astrological front, and so you will likely feel a number of emotions that may or may not be your own. Big astrological (and astronomical) events tend to open up the collective consciousness more and more each time, and so it is easy to dip into the emotions of the world, particularly if you are a sensitive person. While a lot of small aspects are occurring today, the biggest things to look out for are happening tonight. At about 9pm, a Grand Cross will occur. This cross will include a Moon/Pluto opposition and a Uranus/NN opposition, with squares connecting each corner. Since the Sun and Pluto are still in conjunction, the Sun will be sucked into this cross as well. This is an even bigger deal because the moon is full tonight at 11:53 PM EST. Emotions are going to run incredibly high and there is a capacity for bizarre, sudden events to occur. Lie low if you can, or ride out these vibes and channel them into something creative. If this wasn't enough, the moon is going to be void of course again for this entire event. At about 12:05pm EST Sunday afternoon, the moon goes void, where it will stay until Tuesday morning. This is a long void period, and will give both Sunday and Monday the feeling of being in a surreal dream. Mercury joins Venus and enters Aquarius tonight at 8 o'clock, which makes it a good time to think big picture thoughts. There is a lot of latent creative energy circling the cosmos right now, and tonight can be channeled this way if you are careful not to get pulled into the astrological melodrama that is going on. Carry any sort of grounding stone, or a personal talisman that means a lot to you to get you through the evening.
Monday, January 5th - Apologies for not getting this forecast up until late! We can still track the patterns of the day and see how they might influence tomorrow. This morning it is possible that emotions ran high as an overflow from last night's full moon and Grand Cross. Around 2am there was a Sun/North Node square that could have caused some vague discomfort in sleep. It may have been a case of waking up and feeling uneasy or a little foggy. This evening Mercury sextile Saturn connected both conversation and responsibility. There was probably a drive to finally get some work done after footing was lost this morning. It was a good evening to talk to someone, or connect with family. Tonight at 9pm the Moon met Mars in a quincunx aspect. Under this influence it is important to take it easy and not force yourself into exhaustion. The moon has been void of course all day so most work attempted today might fall short anyway. Go to sleep early and put off late work or plans until tomorrow if you can. Burn some incense or a candle before bed.
Tuesday, January 6th - The moon enters Leo around 6am and comes out of its void at the same time. Leo Moon is creative and enjoys compliments, both giving and receiving. It is a good day to share ideas with others and tell them what you think of theirs. The moon trines Saturn in the morning at 8, which connects both signs of Leo and Sagittarius. It is a good day for fire signs, or for harnessing fire sign energy. Passion, creation and innocence are all highlighted today. Try to hold onto these ideals as the Leo moon sweeps through some vaguely unpleasant aspects this afternoon. It forms an opposition with Mercury late morning, which may make it a bit challenging to say how you really feel. Next the moon sweeps through and opposes Venus at noon, creating a dissonance between emotions and art, or emotions and your outwardly manifested relationships. Luckily the moon is a fast moving luminary and so only spends a few hours in each of these aspects. By 4pm, it has joined Neptune in a quincunx. This will make your emotions a little harder to access, and could give you a dreamy, sedated feeling if you are sensitive. The rest of the evening is free of new aspects and so enjoy the feeling of the fiery, warm Leo moon. It is truly a case of sun and moon united and this energy is polarizing. Carry a citrine.
Wednesday, January 7th - This morning has the potential to be a bit of a wild ride. Moon in Leo trine Uranus early on will give your day a jolt. Someone may surprise you with their unexpected emotions or reactions. Moon quincunx Pluto at around 8am will only give you befuddlement if you try to sift through their reasoning or motives. Go with the flow; things will become clear and luminous as the day progresses. The moon sextiles the North Node at about 10am EST, and this will bring about a gentle healing vibration. It's a good time to do something nice for yourself. At 4pm, the moon and sun clash in quincunx. Your outer reality may not line up with what you are thinking about or yearning for, but that's okay. Perhaps what is in store for you is better than what you hoped. Let go of your expectations and see what emerges. Carry a piece of pyrite.
Thursday, January 8th - Just as the clock chimes midnight, the moon trines Jupiter. This will give you extremely lucid, expansive dreams should you set your intention the night before. As you wake, you can tap into the feeling of love and protection that surrounds us all on this earth. It will be easier to feel this morning than it has been for some time! At 10am, the moon will oppose Mars. There could be some heated discussions or frustrations, particularly for those who haven't given themselves some time to breathe lately. The Leo moon is void of course from 12:05pm EST until 5:08pm. This five hour window is not the best for making any important or rash decisions. Wait until 6pm, when the moon shifts over to Virgo and leaves the void. It will be easier to take a step back and consider your options. The Virgo moon will square Saturn in Sagittarius at 8, which may make you feel as though you need to make up for lost time. Keep in mind this is just a feeling, and has no particular basis in reality. Finally the week closes up with a Chiron quincunx North Node aspect, which may bring up old wounds and concerns. Keep your footing and try to find a way to transmute them into something brighter. Carry an onyx.
See you next week! AW
