Theme: Finding Wisdom

The Moon is conjunct the asteroid Pallas-Athena bringing a connection between feeling and strategic thinking, helping you to traverse complex emotional situations. The Sun is moving closer to Mars – physical exercise is a helpful outlet for this high-energy pairing; and keep including people in your plans if you want their support. Chiron remains exactly square Jupiter forcing you to face painful memories, your fears, truly heal and, in that journey, find wisdom.

Force without wisdom falls of its own weight.~ Horace

The Moon is Void of Course in Aquarius from 6.53pm until 8.08pm the next day EST USA. Avoid major contractual undertakings. Take time to enjoy quiet spaces and find the same within.

Theme: Depth Perception

The Moon is conjunct Pluto in Aquarius today which is both deepening and distancing. Aquarius is an air sign so deep emotions do not sit comfortably with this sign. Yet Aquarius is also open to exploring new ideas. Today you can explore your mind yet keep open-minded about what motivates you. Avoid seeking to overly control your environment. The Sun/Mars conjunction brings energy and drive – and strength to achieve goals but there is a cost if you are adversarial without wisdom.

 I try to be aware, flexible and unbiased in my thinking.~ Margot Fonteyn

Theme: Tapping into the soft heart

With Venus trine Chiron today it’s a day to tap into the quiet softer part of your nature and listen. Any restorative or nurturing of self today is more healing than usual. You are more likely to reach out to others who are going through a difficult time. The Moon in Sagittarius sits between Mercury and Venus today aiding communication needed for daily living and connecting with friends. Neptune sits on the cusp of the Pisces/Aries border and will move finally into Aries on January 26th. While it remains in Pisces it is at home – moving into Aries will bring a new paradigm but one that will not be ushered in smoothly.

Most generally, a paradigm is a conceptual scheme representing a group’s shared commitments and providing them with a way of looking at phenomena.~ T.S. Kuhn

Theme: Adventurous Spirit

Five planets are in Sagittarius bringing new ideas, a focus on study and a fresh exploration of the world we live in where the horizons are visible and you can see that you are part of a much larger whole. Enjoy the adventure of enquiry and exploration. The Sun is conjunct the asteroid Juno and square to Saturn/Neptune inviting a close review of relationships.

The Moon is Void in Scorpio from 2.30am until 11.38am today USA EST. Avoid signing contracts. Focus on your inner world and find space for reflection.

My dear, life rarely gives us what we want at the moment we consider appropriate. Adventures do occur, but not punctually.~ E.M. Forster

Theme: Steady accomplishment

With Saturn exactly square the Sun today it’s a day for contemplating what is realistic and possible given the constraints that Saturn places on our actions. The Moon in Scorpio can bring insights into the unconscious trip wires that we set ourselves. Mars in Capricorn provides strength to keep moving forward. Chiron is trine Venus and the Sun providing healing in relationships and purpose.

The time to practice diligently has now arrived. This is the moment to accomplish permanent happiness, Not the moment to fitter away in a state of laziness.~ Thugdrup

Theme: Contemplation in Action.

Sun square Saturn aspect continues to impact us, and by proximity also links to Neptune (conjunct Saturn). This complex, dynamic aspect is better understood if we can link it to cause and effect. The involvement of Neptune asks of each one of us that we let go of attachment. Mars has moved into Capricorn giving us more determination in setting intentional long-term goals that have the most chance of success if we continue step-by-step.

The whole and fertile spirit as guarantee, For every human freedom, suffering to be free,…~ Muriel Rukeyser

Theme: Spiritual upliftment

Mercury is exactly trine Neptune today. This aspect provides opportunities for spiritual upliftment in the moment through making space. Mercury also moves signs today – from Scorpio to Sagittarius bringing an open-minded, wider perspective in communications. Chiron is square Jupiter encouraging enquiry on how you can better see that the glass is half-full not half-empty.

Pain nourishes courage. You can’t be brave if you’ve only had wonderful things happen to you.~Mary Tyler Moore

Theme: Examining details

The Moon is in Virgo giving energy towards focusing on details, communications more broadly, re-finding your routine, addressing any health concerns and caring for small animals. That’s quite a lot – so you best get to work! The Moon is also approaching the nodes bring new and old people into your sphere to help you move through conundrums. Finally, Neptune turns direct today which is good news for the conjunction with Saturn. With both Saturn and Neptune moving forward resolution of this difficult conjunction, while nascent, has begun. It doesn’t mean you’re out of the woods but you can see glimpses of possibility.

Develop enough courage so that you can stand up for yourself and then stand up for somebody else.~ Maya Angelou

Theme: Shadows and wisdom

With the Sun, Venus and Mars in Sagittarius you can be more adventuresome and brave. Uranus is opposite Mercury enabling thought processes and communications to come more swiftly, often from unexpected quarters. In addition, the dark moon is exactly opposite Uranus today. Sudden or unexpected events reveal the more hidden or shadow psychological aspects of ourselves, enabling access to a more authentic self.

Each minute bursts in the burning room, The great globe reels in the solar fire, Spinning the trivial and unique away.~ Delmore Schwartz

The Moon is Void of Course in Leo from 10.26pm until Wednesday 2.20am USA EST. Avoid signing contracts during this period or making large purchases.

Theme: Antidotes

While the difficult conjunction of Saturn and Neptune continues Jupiter is currently the equalizer, beneficially off-setting the most difficult and challenging issues of this conjunction. Jupiter brings optimism in situations where there is despair and a wider perspective on the causes of suffering that is anchored in psychological antidotes. While Saturn is about cause and effect in a worldly sense Jupiter is about the merit we create for ourselves when we undertake virtuous activity. Neptune is what we make it. With Neptune, we can choose to go further into delusion and denial or surrender to an authentic spiritual path and guide.
