January 2015
Thought for the
month: “Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.” Oscar Wilde
In General: January will shape up as a lively, slightly
hectic but overall optimistic time. A Grand Fire Trine between Uranus in Aries,
Saturn in Sagittarius and Jupiter in Leo will keep us all excited about the
possibilities of the future and very much on toes. When Mars enters the picture
midmonth with a conjunction to Neptune and a square with Saturn however, our
actions can be blocked and globally it can be a testing time of irrational
behaviours and an increase in the rate of accidents. Redemption comes in the
final week of the month with Venus presenting us with some peaceful and loving
energy instead!
January 4 is a full Moon in Cancer. This moon trines
Neptune in Pisces bringing increased intuition to many of us. Dreams can be
more profound and memorable at this time. Relationships can be more intense and
deep connections can be formed. January 20th’s
new Moon in Aquarius brings innovative ideas and humanitarian actions to the
fore. If you have a birthday this month then expect a busy year with lots of
twists and turns! On the world scene it’s a month of intense and sometimes
irrational behaviours as well as an awakening of global compassion. Locally we
can expect to have strong intuitions that we can trust, at the full moon.
Aries
You enjoy spending
time with your friends in January, and championing the causes you believe in.
You will also find it easier to make new friends, attracting likeminded people
to you naturally. Mercury makes a muddle of things in general though, as he
enters Aquarius on the 4th and will retrograde in Aquarius starting January
21st. Plan more carefully!
Taurus
Mid-January Mars will
enter water sign Pisces, and your energy becomes more cerebral than physical or
emotional. You’re driven toward intellectual pursuits, and want to learn more
and more about things in general. You also want to work toward your dreams for the
future, feeling that you can make some progress now.
Gemini
This month you definitely
don’t want to be fenced in! You want to roam the world and have a good time
while you’re doing it. You can come across as more gregarious, bold, and
optimistic. Venus
enters Pisces on January 27th, joining Mars, and you relish pursuing your
goals, working hard and trying to make good impressions on the right people.
Cancer
You’ll get to the
heart of the matter with anything that interests you this month. You can also begin
to transform something, making it feel new again. You have no patience for
superficiality now. A full moon occurs on January 4th in your sign, Cancer, and
this is the time of year when you reap what you sow.
Leo
In January you enjoy
spending time with your loved ones, getting and giving attention, and feeling
close with them. You prefer being with others instead of being alone. The new
moon in Aquarius on January 20th, is a good time to reconcile with someone, see
an old partner return, revisit relationship issues, or re-ignite an old
compromise.
Virgo
On a relationship
level, there are likely to be some challenges, perhaps intimacy problems, and
certainly many of you guys will be taking a more serious tack with your
romantic life. Your career and leisure time will also be in focus. You will be
able to combine the two in some way and this will make things so much easier
for you.
Libra
This month you are
happy when you’re engaging with your hobbies, having a good time, being
sociable, and generally letting loose. You come across as more friendly and
outgoing than usual. The January 4th full moon can be a high point to start
your year. If you've been doing the right thing and putting in work toward a
goal, you can see it come to fruition now.
Scorpio
You can be too
defensive of yourself and your beliefs this January, and need to make sure
you’re listening to what other people say and not jumping to conclusions. If you are in a
relationship, this month you will try to spice things up and make it feel like
it did when you first met. It’s an excellent month if you’re in an artistic or creative
profession.
Sagittarius
Right now you’re
interested in many different things, and you’ll pursue all of them. You have a
healthy curiosity about the world and come across as more talkative,
intelligent, and positive. This is a good time to take up new challenges. It’s time to define
the new you. You now have a better idea of what you really want in life and you
are ready to go after it.
Capricorn
This month is a great
time to launch a self-promotional campaign. Lavish Venus makes a sextile to
Uranus on the 13th, possibly putting you in line for a very lucrative job. It’s
a good time to work behind the scenes. Your mental energy surges. You come up with lots of ideas,
and are enthusiastic about all of them.
Aquarius
The overall theme for
you guys this month is contemplation and meditation. It's a really good month
to spend some time alone, thinking about what it is you really wish from your
life. This applies to relationships, money, work, and health. Take some time
out to contemplate what it is that you want; not what others want or expect
from you.
Pisces
You seem to need
extra rest and extra time to recover when you do anything strenuous, physically,
emotionally, or mentally this month. You do your best on your own, when no one
is demanding anything of you. You can be very creative and inspired, right now.
You may come across as more imaginative, compassionate, or spiritual.
