Weekly Astro Forecast for January 1 – January 7:
The New Moon occurred in the zodiac sign of Capricorn on December 29 at 6:53AM UTC Time. The New Moon phase sets the stage through January 4 and this will be the time to commit to personal goals and to get things done. You’ll probably feel more driven and motivated, or you might get hit with a touch of spring fever and decide to clean out all the cobwebs and make new changes.
Sunday, January 1. New Year’s Day. Happy New Year! With the New Moon in the zodiac sign of Aquarius you will feel more open to try something new. Your intuition might feel awakened, or you might decide to connect with others, or follow through with your desires and attend an entertaining event.
The Transits for Sunday
The New Moon. With the New Moon in the zodiac sign of Aquarius, you are open to the New Year and whatever it brings as long as others do not make you feel boxed in and tell you what you need to do.
Mars (the troublemaker) Conjuncts Neptune at 06:52AM UTC Time. Your intuition might feel awakened and inspire you to start a new creative project, or you might decide to get out and see a movie, read a book and relax, or you might feel driven to find some entertainment if you think it will be relaxing.
The stars like you today. The planets are united and agree with each other because they are very close, but might send you into a blind spot because you’re too close to a situation!
Jupiter (expansion) Semisquares North Node Rx (the future) at 12:15PM UTC Time. Your destiny could take a turn for the better if you make the time to reach out to someone, or attend an important event, but that might be hard to do if you want to rest and chill out.
The planets don’t understand each other, but you’ll probably feel determined to move forwards without a clear understanding of what you are getting yourself into.
Monday, January 2. With the V.O.C. Moon in the zodiac sign of Aquarius, you might be thinking of letting go of some of the social obligations that are draining you, but later when the Moon makes an ingress and finds its new home in Pisces, you might have a change of heart and find clarity regarding the direction you want to take with your social obligations.
The Transits for Monday
The New Moon begins void-of-course at 7:58AM (Greenwich Time) in the zodiac sign of Aquarius. This is not the time to take risks because the void-of-course phase is the time when Pandora’s Box might open and the unthinkable happens, or you might feel tired and want to shut down and rest.
Sometimes the void-of-course phase makes you feel like you got out on the wrong side of your bed — you feel irritable or in a bad mood because you stepped into a crisis-in-action before you’ve had your first cup of coffee or you just start off with the wrong foot forward!
The New Moon makes an ingress and finds its new home in the zodiac sign of Pisces at 9:57AM UTC Time. With the Moon in Pisces, you might feel more sympathy for others. Just don’t fall for a sob story and let the problems of others become your problems because you might get yourself into something you will regret, or end up feeling drained by the situation.
Tuesday, January 3. With the planet Venus entering the zodiac sign of Pisces, love and relationships (personal and professional) might be on top of your list. You might be on a soul-searching mission to connect with the right relationships, or on a mission to find your soul-mate, or what is going to turn you on.
The Transits for Tuesday
Venus (wants, needs and desires) enters the zodiac sign of Pisces at 07:46AM UTC Time. You enter a new cycle of change and your heart might feel stirred up and you might throw yourself on a mission to find the ONE, or start a romantic relationship. Just make sure you do your homework before you jump into something or the relationship might be short lived.
Mercury Rx (how the mind works) Sextiles Venus (wants, needs and desires) at 07:40PM UTC Time. Social connection might be on top of the list today, or you might be ready to start a relationship (personal or professional), or you might commit to someone, or make a big promise.
The planets like each other and cooperate and inspire each other, bringing you into a new creative opportunity to take for a spin.
Wednesday, January 4. With the V.O.C. Moon in the zodiac sign of Pisces, you might feel tired because you have been burning the candle at both ends, or it’s possible that you have been over-extending yourself. But as the day progresses, you might get a second wind because the Moon makes an ingress and finds its new home in the zodiac sign of Aries. With Mercury Rx entering the zodiac sign of Sagittarius your mood will change and you will feel invigorated with energy again.
The Transits for Wednesday
The New Moon begins void-of-course at 1:32AM (Greenwich Time) in the zodiac sign of Pisces.
William Lilly, a famous astrologer, said that when the Moon is void-of-course in the zodiac signs of Taurus, Sagittarius, Pisces, and Cancer, the Moon can still perform its duties!
Mercury Rx (how the mind works) enters the zodiac sign of Sagittarius at 02:16PM UTC Time. You start a new cycle of change to expand and achieve something important to you. You might decide to explore a spiritual path regarding religion or philosophy, or you might decide to travel, or go back to school, or decide to start looking for a new house because you want to move, or you might explore something that has a special meaning to you.
Then again, if you are thinking about any of the above, Mercury Rx Might make you turn an important goal inwards because you have more planning to do before you are ready to make the change.
The New Moon makes an ingress and finds its new home in the zodiac sign of Aries at 4:19PM UTC Time. With the Moon in Aries, you might feel irritated, or lose your patience, but the irritation will be short-lived and you will be off doing what you want to do.
Thursday, January 5. Deep emotional feelings that are going to be hard to shake off might come out of a hidden place today. With the first quarter Moon in the zodiac sign of Aries, you are going to feel an inner heat and might decide to get to the bottom of something.
The Transits for Thursday
Venus (wants, needs and desires) Semisquares Pluto (power and transformation) at 06:41AM UTC Time. You might feel inner emotional tension today, and this tension might make you feel suspicious, or feel that someone has a hidden agenda, or you might feel jealous, or more possessive or controlling, or feel that you are in a power struggle with someone, or you might be experiencing a romantic disappointment and feel upset because something does not add up, or you did not get closure.
The planets don’t understand each other, but you’ll probably feel determined to move forwards without a clear understanding of what you are getting yourself into.
The first quarter Moon occurs in the zodiac sign of Aries on January 5 at 7:46PM UTC Time and this energy sets the stage through January 11. This Moon phase brings you into the time of “Check-Point-Charlie,” the time of needing to check to see where you’re at and determine if you need to change something or work harder to realize a dream or accomplish something important to you.
Friday, January 6. With the V.O.C. Moon in the zodiac sign of Aries, you might feel moody, or that things are not happening as fast as they could, or feeling that others should stop talking and start doing and put their foot on the gas pedal and get going.
The Transits for Friday
The first quarter Moon begins void-of-course at 6:41PM (Greenwich Time) in the zodiac sign of Aries. This is not the time to take risks because the void-of-course phase is the time when Pandora’s Box might open and the unthinkable happens.
Sometimes the void-of-course phase makes you feel like you got out on the wrong side of your bed — you feel irritable or in a bad mood because you stepped into a crisis-in-action before you’ve had your first cup of coffee or you just start off with the wrong foot forward!
The first quarter Moon makes an ingress and finds its new home in the zodiac sign of Taurus at 8:17PM UTC Time. With the Moon in Taurus, you might be thinking about the good old days, or experience some unexpected mood swings today, but they will be short lived.
Saturday, January 7. With the first quarter Moon in the “Check-Point-Charlie” phase, and Pluto shaking hands with the Sun, you might decide to keep something to yourself to feel safe and in control.
The Transits for Saturday
The Sun (what you want) Conjuncts Pluto (power and transformation) at 06:44AM UTC Time. You will feel motivated and focused, but you will also stay in control by keeping something very close to your chest.
The stars like you today. The planets are united and agree with each other because they are very close, but might send you into a blind spot because you’re too close to a situation!
See you next week!
