Monday, January 18th ~ Today the moon is void until it enters Aries at 2:08am EST. We may feel more energetic or inspired to get to action. A lot can be done today but we have to be mindful to not burn ourselves out. Asteroids Eros and Vesta meet in sextile today, creating a lot of desire, passion and sensuality that is explored or shared in a more private way. The day is more physically focused and places an emphasis on movement, impulse, and tangible results. It is the last day of Capricorn season, and as we move through the final degree of the sign of the sea goat we may wish for recognition or acknowledgment for our effort in some area.
Tuesday, January 19th ~ The Sun enters Aquarius today at 3:39pm EST, joining Mercury, Saturn, and Jupiter in the sign of the water bearer. This Aquarian focus makes it easier to see the big picture. We can dream big here, but Saturn is keeping everything in check. In some ways this makes things better as we do not float away into space but are firmly moored in this reality. This allows us to create more changes for the better here in the physical realm. The first decan of Aquarius is ruled by Uranus, and so for the next ten or so days we see major shifts in ego and self-identity. We may enjoy shape shifting and being chameleon-like. Asteroids Psyche and Juno are opposing one another today; as a result, commitments could feel somewhat stifling. Keep your options open or be honest about where you are.
Wednesday, January 20th ~ The moon is void of course from 3:29am until it enters Taurus at 1:56pm EST. In the morning we could be restless. All the Aquarius and Aries energies make being bored intolerable, and so some people will really stir the pot just to feel something. Once the moon is in Taurus in the afternoon and in its position of exaltation, this impulse mellows a little. Today is the First Quarter Moon which creates some friction that can serve as a catalyst propelling us toward our goals. The day is really loaded with aspects. We have Mars and Uranus in conjunction, which we have been feeling all week and will continue to feel into the weekend. There are two sides to this particular energy; one gives us bursts of energy and can allow us to achieve feats of strength we might normally consider difficult, such as running a marathon or lifting a hundred pounds. The other side of this will make some people quick to anger. Tempers could flare up in strange or possibly dangerous ways. If you can, lean into the physical side of this as the way through the anger is to burn it off through exercise, sports, etc. You can also engage in healthy competition through a game but remember to breathe throughout. Mercury trines the North Node today which makes the things we say carry great weight. This is a good aspect for writing and communication in general. If all this wasn't enough, asteroid Vesta moves retrograde today. We could find our home life or living situation creating some kind of ripple effect. We may feel a sense of deja vu, like we are going through a similar energetic pattern as we once did in the past. It is a chance to meet the energy in a different way.
Thursday, January 21st ~ Today the moon is in Taurus all day. We continue to feel the after effects of Mars conjunct Uranus, so again my recommendation is to get physically active. If you're feeling combative at all you can channel this into exercise, sports, or even a video game. Ceres and Neptune are in conjunction which actually helps to soften the intensity of the more masculine Mars/Uranus conjunction. This is a gentle, flowing transit that connects us to ancestors and visions of the past. We especially tap into the vibration of the mother, and all mothers who we are linked to both physically and spiritually.
Friday, January 22nd ~ The moon is in Taurus today, turning void at 4:28pm EST through the end of the day. We are likely to desire a safe, comfortable place to retreat. Spending time at home or somewhere we feel cozy will be a necessity. Psyche's retrograde ends, with the asteroid moving direct at 9 degrees Gemini. During Psyche retrograde, we can return to mental patterns or thoughts from the past. We can look at things from the vantage point we once had long ago. This isn't to say that we regress. Usually this is accompanied by a knowing that we have moved beyond this point. Now that Psyche is moving direct again, we can work to integrate these past beliefs, thoughts, or patterns to create new neural pathways and possibilities. Ceres squares the North Node today, which contributes to the feeling of wanting to hide away in a quiet, familiar place. Taking unnecessary action might not be a good idea; conserve your energy and get your thoughts clear before moving.
Saturday, January 23rd ~ Another active day in the cosmos. The moon is void of course until it enters Gemini at 2:43am EST. Air signs abound in the transiting chart, and so we may feel lighter and more interested in banter and playful conversation. The quest for information intrigues and delights. Mars and Jupiter move into square with one another at 2:48am EST, and we feel this all day and into tomorrow. The main lesson of this transit is to not burn out. You may feel sure you can handle adding more onto your plate, but it's important to take a step back to assess and check in with yourself before blindly barreling ahead. Venus sextiles Neptune at 2:48pm EST, a great transit for spirituality and creativity. You may be compelled to paint, write, or do something else that ends with beauty made manifest. Relationships offer a sense of spiritual comfort. However, the Sun and Saturn are also in conjunction today (perfecting at 10:00pm EST) which by its nature can make us feel lonely or removed from others. We could feel like we are frozen in place by responsibilities and all that is expected of us. It is not the easiest transit to navigate. If we can lean into the Venus/Neptune sextile it can help to counter the harsh effects of Sun conjunct Saturn. Meditate, create, or send a friend some love over the line. The problems arise when we get too into our head and away from a space of presence.
Sunday, January 24th ~ The moon is in Gemini all day, which can make us more talkative, playful, or inquisitive. Neptune and Ceres meet in conjunction at 19 degrees Pisces, squaring the North Node at 19 degrees Gemini. Escape is the key word for the day. We dream about other worlds and easily slip into fantasy. This can feel fun and inspiring but there is the potential for guilt over neglecting our responsibilities. Remember that floating away to gain some inspiration from time to time can help us complete our work with more passion later on. Enjoy the otherworldly vibes and see what ideas or visions come your way.
