Thursday, January 1

Morning is best for independent mental activities, and evening for practical communications.

Moon in loquacious Gemini spotlights mind and communications. Ruler Mercury makes a morning square to fantastical Neptune, fueling creativity, fiction, fantasy and possibly confusion. In the news, there’s apt to be a special item of manipulation. Mercury rules cognition and Neptune rules spirituality, so clarity may come from inner work, dream interpretation or angel connections. Or we might consult an oracle, take a mini-retreat or work on New Year’s visualization materials.

Connections go more smoothly after 1:11 pm (4:11 ET), when loquacious Mercury enters Capricorn, easing some of the tension of the Merc-Neptune square as it triggers the zero point and fills out a stellium with Venus, Mars and Sun also in this sign of mastery. We go from the Centaur’s party-loving energy to a more serious, goal-oriented modality. Afternoon and evening are great for making connections or structuring a proposal, a business, a contract, our spiritual practice, or just about anything that we wish to last. We can also solidify family connections. With Mercury squaring Neptune, don’t make formal agreements, unless it’s a contact with an angel or with your higher self.

Affirmation:
I ask my higher self to keep me focused on divine priorities now and throughout the New Year.

Friday, January 2

The portal of tomorrow’s Full Moon spotlights family, empathy and soul-growth. Enjoy dear ones, avoid an argument.

Today’s numerology of 2 likes company. Ruled by Moon, it favors connections with mother and family. Moon in Gemini, also communicative, goes VOC at 4:24 am (7:24 ET), entering fertile Cancer at 5:09 am (8:09 ET). At 6:58 am (9:58 ET) Moon opposes Mercury, triggering thoughts and feelings around our goals and their juxtaposition to family, emotions or home base.

Now, we can focus on filling our evening with laughter, love and light. We might share empathy, and work on behalf of a group or person in need.

Affirmation:
Angels and spirit guides, come into my space and fill it with your light, here and now.

Saturday, January 3

In the midst of strong goal energy, the Full Moon calls us to honor our soul needs.

At 2:03 am (5:03 ET) Moon in Cancer perfects her fullness, opposing Sun. Sun, Mars, Venus and Mercury are all in Capricorn, sign of achievement. This is lot of energy around goals, and with the personal planets involved, it’s creative, expressive, passionate and potentially sexy. Charisma is high, and relationships can be exciting and constructive. As for Luna, at 2:54 pm, she conjoins magnanimous Jupiter, expanding compassion, good feeling and abundance and precipitating emotional overflow. The chart for this lunation evokes a boxing ring. In the near corner we find crowds, noise and success; in the far corner, feelings, meaning and soul. Although the seesaw configuration can bring indecision, if we can avoid distraction, it favors negotiation and connection.

The dynamic opposition between cardinal Cancer and Capricorn can be emotionally volatile but constructive. We can build for security, for family, for the people, for our souls. We can consolidate something important, related to the structure of our lives, something that we want to last. Capricorn can be given to putting a tweed coat over pajamas when the doorbell rings, and hiding feelings under the rug. But at this Full Moon, emotions come out to play and won’t go away, whether they relate to families affected by migration policies, unresolved trauma issues, or the needs of our own soul saying, “ET phone home.”

This is a great day to create goals for our inner prerogatives, and to review how worldly goals, concerns and interactions can support our sensitive inner life. A simple Full Moon ritual would be to acquire a house plant, bless it as a representative of our personal healing or evolution, and commit to caring for and talking to it daily in parallel to our inner growth. We can rework relationships, get in touch with the kind of masculine and feminine energy we want with us and in us during the New Year, and establish limits to focus on long-term values, abundance and what strengthens us personally.

Constructive energies prevail until late, with a trine from Moon to Saturn the builder at 11:45 pm (2:45 am ET).

At 13-14 Cancer, the Sabian symbol for this lunation describes:

A VERY OLD MAN FACING A VAST DARK SPACE TO THE NORTHEAST… Fulfillment in transcending and changeless wisdom… The… Wise Old Man, an archetypal figure found in all systems of symbolism. In occult terminology the northeast is the direction from which spiritual-cosmic forces enter the Earth-sphere… The Old Man faces the Changeless Reality, the true North… He faces the great Void, that apparent Darkness which is an intense Light invisible to our senses… by consistently and for a long time meditating on the changeless and spiritual reality at the very core of all experiences one can attain the supreme and age-old wisdom. We see in the symbol a way beyond appearances and toward PERMANENCE IN TRUTH.

Affirmation:
Guardian Angel, guide my soul growth and hold me in this focus, now and always.

Sunday, January 4

Prioritize emotional balance and direct creative energies productively.

If we happen to be up in the wee hours, we can use a wonderful sextile from Moon to liberator Uranus in productive Taurus which supports research and acting on financial options. We might also reach out to a friend or knock on an innovative door.

At 4:59 am (7:59 ET), Moon in sensitive Cancer trines intuitive Neptune, favoring dream guidance and spiritual activities (perhaps in our sleep!). At 5:44 am (8:44 ET) Luna enters dramatic Leo. Her energy combines with the diligent numerology of 4—ruled by Saturn—to favor self-expression, generosity and warmth, positive recognition (giving and receiving), and creative work. Early morning is the best time for connections—breakfast with friends, colleagues, clients, or one’s love object.

At 10:25 am (1:25 pm), things get deep and possibly heavy as Moon opposes intense Pluto. After that, we might research something that supports children or our creativity, or we could visit the therapist, journal, work on spiritual healing, start a petition or otherwise engage in armchair activism. Avoid direct confrontation and if personal struggles arise, back out.

At 1:25 pm (4:25 ET), things lighten up a bit thanks to Moon’s quincunx to Mercury the messenger in constructive Capricorn. With Moon in creative Leo, this combination makes for enthusiastic communication for the purpose of solving a problem or building something or someone up. Use it mindfully, because both Cap and Leo can be bossy.

Affirmation:
There’s no lack of direction in this project, Infinite Intelligence works to coordinate all elements for excellence, here and now.

Monday, January 5

Our charm quotient rises and we can enjoy romance, socializing and business with recreation.

Today’s  daring numerology of 5 moves us to try something different, while Moon in playful Leo makes minor tensions to sweet Venus, radiant Sun and passionate Mars, all in ambitious Capricorn.

We can have fun, but there’s a serious, constructive tone to our interactions and interests. We can socialize with purpose, for PR, romance or to build something lasting. We can also devote our creativity to enriching a project or goal.

Affirmation:
I am grateful for the opportunities to serve that flow, here and now and always.

Tuesday, January 6

A joyful day to share abundance and be productive.

Sun conjoins Venus, radiating vibrations of love, joy and prosperity and facilitating people connections. Today’s numerology of 6, ruled by party-animal Jupiter, favors gatherings, negotiation, justice and abundance.

If your date slept over, you’ll enjoy the wee hours, thanks to Moon in passionate Leo combining with Sun-Venus. Or you could exchange early messages with a love object, a creative colleague or your child. Catch the star of love early, since at 5:05 am (8:05 ET) Moon goes VOC, entering diligent Virgo at 8:57 am (11:57 ET).

Charm continues to flow, but connections take on a more practical, serious tone. Reach out to others that are connected to one or more of the following areas: work, communications, a traditional kind of romantic endeavor, or a project for wellness, clean-up, service or finance.

Affirmation:
Divine love flows to me and through me, and good circulates in all my connections now.

Wednesday, January 7

Communications go great, as do romance and useful creativity.

Today’s numerology of 7, related to cognition, spotlights intellectual connection and mental or intuitive collaborations.

Venus conjoins Mars, firing up attraction, charisma and romance. In sensual Capricorn, this is a hot aspect yet also focused on what’s lasting. Moon in diligent Virgo trines the conjunction, and also ruler Mercury and Sun. These strong earth energies can make tangible headway, in love, socializing, connections, business, work, service and healing—where we can apply our creativity.

The magic continues tonight, as Moon sextiles abundant Jupiter in fertile Cancer. Perfecting at 9:59 pm (12:59 am ET), this harmony brings opportunities in teaching, publicity, sales. campaigning for a cause and making good connections with the public. Act to fuel them.

Affirmation:
I give thanks for the positive forces that support my abundance, here and now.

Thursday, January 8

Organize, declutter, be audacious, fall in lust.

Moon in diligent Virgo joins with today’s powerful numerology of 8, to support tangible progress. Before before we make any progress, though, we may have to survive a nerd fest, as this picky Moon opposes demanding Saturn at 9:46 am (12:46 pm). Avoid being hard on yourself or others, particularly family. These tough energies can be applied to organizational tasks, projects or jobs. And we can clear the decks for action.

At 11:50 am (2:50 pm ET), we get back in the flow as Moon trines rebel Uranus in prosperous Taurus. It’s worth bold action to:

• Upgrade our AI knowledge or business
• Make an innovative investment
• Reach out to someone who helps with the above or in some way brings fresh air

At 3:23 PM (6:23 ET) Moon goes VOC; we can take a rest. At 4:06 pm (7:06 pm) Moon enters relational Libra, giving us a few hours to make practical connections, for: PR, compromise, negotiation, teamwork, or efforts involving justice.

At 9:47 pm (12:47 am ET), Moon trines deep Pluto, melting through Libra Moon’s meeker tendencies to infuse us with boldness. We can set a limit, have a hot date, or make a breakthrough in emotional healing, research or armchair activism.

Affirmation:
I declare myself free from all programs—inherited or imposed—that might limit my spiritual power. I am a direct descendant of the divine, and I assume my power to manifest good, now and always.

Friday, January 9

We can share gratitude, support a cause or person, enrich connections.

Moon in socially adept Libra is ruled by Venus in practical Capricorn, who happens to oppose expansive Jupiter. When these two benefics get together—even in tense aspect—there are social, romantic and financial opportunities. Hot Mars is also approaching Jupiter, which can make things explosive, motivating or sexy. Most of the planets, including Moon, are in cardinal signs, favoring action. As for today’s mystical numerology of 9, it’s more about giving than receiving. We can reach out to help, show we care, share knowledge or guidance, take some time out, or express our gratitude or generosity. Avoid potentially explosive interactions, and do promote your creative work.

Connections go best before 4:34 pm (7:34 ET), when Moon squares Mercury the messenger. After that, we can focus on study, creative communication or contributive participation in a small group.

Affirmation:
I am grateful for life’s rich fullness, here and now.

Saturday, January 10

We get a boost of energy and a brief, early window to campaign for something, exert our leadership, fight for a cause or achieve a higher level of faith.

We’re revved up, as energized Mars in focused Capricorn perfects an opposition to over-the-top Jupiter in fertile Cancer. We can get enthused about goals, work, home, families, beliefs and campaigning for sales or a cause. In the wee hours, Sun also opposes Jupiter, while at 7:08 (10:08 ET), Moon in Libra makes a T-square with the Jupiter-Mars opposition.

Today’s numerology of 1, ruled by Mars, fuels a pioneering spirit. We want to start something or get things going. It’s best to do it before 7:48 am (10:48 ET) when Moon reaches her Fourth Quarter. So begins the final week of the lunar month: seven days to simplify our lives and focus on chewing what we already bit off.

At 18-19 Libra, the Sabian symbol for this lunation describes:

A GANG OF ROBBERS IN HIDING… Protest against disharmonic social privilege.The protest against an unbalanced society with its rigid stratification into classes can be seen as a positive factor, even if it challenges the principle of order, for it reveals dynamic qualities in individuals and the will to transformation. In another sense, it is the dark shadow of the ideal of “nonpossessiveness.” The question is: How valid and effectual is this kind of protest?… any effective resistance to the momentum of crystallized institutions should be organized if it is to be effective. Individuals alone are impotent in producing actual changes in social consciousness. A “group” must be formed… GROUP PROTEST.

After today’s lunation, we get another hour for progress. Use it to take the reins of a situation, to campaign for a cause, or to promote a business—especially real estate—or put positive energy into family or home.

Starting at 8:54 am (12:54 pm), Moon goes VOC for the rest of the day. After this, save key actions and connections for tomorrow and enjoy nature, artwork, your partner or friends.

Invocation:
I call on the spirits of perennial trees, to fill me the inner strength to continue growing, even when it takes most work, now and always.

Sunday, January 11

A wave of courage supports strategic action.

Moon remains VOC in Libra until 2:55 am (5:55 ET) when she enters strong Scorpio. Still in opposition to Jupiter, Moon’s coruler, Mars, wants to act on the determined energy of this lunar placement.

Things get more intense after 9:03 am (12:03 pm ET), when Moon squares ruler Pluto. With the planet of power in rebellious Aquarius, we may feel confrontational. Avoid direct conflict for and try to direct today’s courageous, transformational impulses strategically. We might follow up on research or bureaucracy related to a major life change, finish something, follow through on an empowering intention or gather information, support or resources to close a cycle.

Today’s numerology of 11 provides a welcome softening influence. Our heart-centered prayers or meditation strengthen angel connections to lift the planetary frequency.

Affirmation:
I radiate love to myself and others, and angels apply this heart energy in planetary healing, now.

Monday, January 12

Moon in bold Scorpio supports independent action, inner work and major life change.

At 1:44 pm (4:44 ET), doors open as we reach out to people or a person for a constructive alliance, as Moon sextiles Mercury in Capricorn, sign of the builder. Today’s numerology of 3, ruled by Venus, sweetens our words and interactions.

At 6:46 pm (9:46 ET), Moon trines Jupiter, the promoter planet, still in orb of his opposition to bold Mars. With Moon in Scorpio, this aspect gives us strength to take the reins of a project we have to promote or to fight for a cause, an achievement or an inner goal.

11:43 pm (2:43 am ET) Moon sextiles Mars. If we still happen to be up, we can organize our drawers, closets or space, declutter or attack a tough cleaning job.

Invocation:
Archangel Michael, please mobilize me and my circumstances towards new good, here and now.

Tuesday, January 13

We can make lasting progress in diverse connections and endeavors.

Moon in powerful Scorpio opens a window that’s worth rising early for, since it connects with the beautiful, constructive sextile from Venus, planet of love, values and finance, to Saturn the builder. Their alliance makes morning a great time for self-expression, with people and in business. Take action and reach out to harvest the potential for lasting, positive transformation.

At 9:33 am (12:33 pm ET) waning Moon in transformational Scorpio trines Saturn the builder, strengthening our organizational abilities, and favoring decluttering or taking determined action on something that we had begun previously.

The string of supportive harmonies gets interrupted at 10:49 am (1:49 pm ET), by an opposition from Moon to Uranus, planet of freedom. We move from the steady calm of Moon-Saturn to a sudden, disruptive need for space. And it’s a good idea to take a time out for independent activities like reading, researching the family tree, journaling, spiritual healing, taking in an art exhibit, armchair activism or working on something creative.

Take key actions before 2:59 pm (5:59 ET), when Moon goes VOC, or after 3:34 pm (6:34 ET) when she enters adventuresome Sagittarius. The Venus-Saturn sextile favors the more constructive potential of this lunar placement. We can get great mileage through:

• Working on trade, diplomacy or a legal matter
• Promoting a project, product or cause
• Holding a business meeting
• Lending or borrowing money
• Building connections in romance, business, collaboration or socializing

At 9:54 pm (12:54 am ET), things can get intense. Moon sextiles Pluto. In sociable Sag and friendly Aquarius, this harmony favors socializing and collaborations with a purpose.

We can reach out and try a new way to express our ideas, promote something or enrich our people connections.

In the midst of opportunities for growing something stable, we get an injection of boldness and desire for change. Moon in adventuresome Sagittarius combines with today’s exploratory numerology of 5, an opposition from messenger Mercury to expansive Jupiter, and a trine from Venus to wild Uranus. This combination fuels our vision and desire for new horizons.

At the same time, Venus—goddess of love and values—perfects her sextile to stable Saturn, motivating us to build lasting alliances and abundance.

With Uranus involved, we can build with authenticity and innovation. Avoid getting carried away by the desire for excitement, or interrupting a negotiation by throwing caution to the winds and standing up on your soapbox. We can try instead to direct our boldness by knocking (or knocking again) on a key door, or by persevering at something of lasting value. Positive agreements can be reached. Today’s directed efforts can contribute to lasting success and connections.

Affirmation:
By mentally experiencing the results I want, I claim my success field now.

Thursday, January 15

Actions in new directions can be highly constructive.

Moon in Sagittarius opens our vision and lifts our spirits. Still in orb of her sextile to Saturn, Venus perfects her trine to freeing Uranus. This trine moves us to cut free from stifling situations at home or with family, and moves us to try new, more authentic ways of relating and generating abundance. With a sextile from Venus to stable Saturn, it makes an interesting combination of innovation and security. There are opportunities to create stability in new directions. Also, the planet of love is approaching a sextile to glamorous Neptune, triggering our magnetism in romance or in our image.

Today’s numerology of 6 supports abundance, protection, joy and positive gatherings or dealings. Morning is a particularly good window. At 6:40 am (9:40 ET) Moon makes a quincunx to ruler Jupiter, increasing our charm quotient, social instincts and ability to attract positive emotional responses from others.

At 10:17 pm (1:17 am ET), cheer fades as Moon squares stern Saturn. Best to sleep through this one.

Affirmation to use before going to sleep: As I sleep tonight, I download the future in which this (name intention) has already manifested, and it enters my world easily, here and now.

Friday, January 16

We can share our creative gifts, expand our range of compassion, promote something, and build romance or popularity.

At 3:47 am (6:47 ET) Moon enters goal-oriented Capricorn, setting a constructive, practical tone for the day. We can apply her gifts in numerous ways, although the best will come through people connections, creativity, compassion and/or romance.

Venus, planet of personal love, sextiles Neptune, ruler of angelic love. Still in harmony to constructive, strategic Saturn and freeing Uranus, she expands our heart energy, helping us apply our talents to build something beautiful, compassionate, romantic or magnetic.

This day supports moving out of our comfort zones and making interesting connections. Don’t get stuck on a particular person, but simply express your talent and love, and make sure your light shines.

Affirmation:
I am made of light, and I radiate brightly, now and always.

Saturday, January 17

On the portal of tomorrow’s New Moon in Capricorn, we can lay the groundwork for lasting progress, forge magical connections and try new ways of building something solid.

Moon in diligent Capricorn gets a boost as Sun, also in Capricorn, sextiles ruler Saturn. Our constructive instincts are backed up by opportunities; doors can open; a boss, teacher, elder or authority figure can provide support; a business deal can solidify. Reach out.

Relational Venus perfects a sextile to mystical Neptune. A dream can come true for long-range intentions in finance, romance, spirituality or compassion. At 4:43 am (7:43 ET), Venus enters practical Aquarius. Feeling drawn to all things free, fair and wild, we go from Material Girl to starry-eyed-cosmic-friend mode.

Our independent spirit is further fueled at 8:59 am (11:59 ET), as Sun trines rebel Uranus. Authenticity beckons, and we can integrate it into relationships or projects we are building.

At 5:14 pm (8:14 ET) Moon opposes Jupiter, blending with the Venus-Neptune sextile to make the rest of the day great for promotional, spiritual and compassionate endeavors.

Affirmation:
Guardian angel, please direct me to recognize my greatest talents and strengthen me to develop them, here and now.

Sunday, January 18

The first New Moon of the new year makes this a powerful day to set intentions for mastery, to surround ourselves with angels, devas and our favorite spirit guides, and to start something related to connections, business, spirituality, compassion or creativity.

Moon in Capricorn makes a stellium with Sun, messenger Mercury, dynamic Mars, relational Venus and intense Pluto, opening a window for powerful new beginnings. We feel emboldened to take part in evolutionary tendencies that may have previously seemed overwhelming. We can set goals that are aligned with the current forces of change. They may relate to Capricorn areas such as work, public life, or business. The close involvement of the personal planets indicates that though the goals may be ambitious, the path isn’t not solitary. We can make connections, form a team, and mobilize others with our ideas and confidence. This lunation’s final dispositor is Neptune, so the intentions we set and the goals we act on can also be spiritual. In fact, even material concerns are likely to have a subtle or compassionate aspect. Mysterious Neptune’s influence and the opposition of Jupiter are also warning signs not to let our own goals and energy get absorbed by someone’s hot air or manipulative tactics. Listen to your intuition and angels.

Making things more intense, Mercury perfects a conjunction to Mars, and Venus conjoins Pluto!

At 28-29 Capricorn, the Sabian symbol for this lunation resonates with the Neptune influence at this portal. It describes:

A WOMAN READING TEA LEAVES… The ability to see… hidden meaning… The reading of tea leaves is… a modern version of… procedure[s] used by priests of all ancient religions. The… power of occult forces or entities to convey the information that will clarify confusing situations. [Also,] the ability… to see through… facts and discover how they are related to the realm of basic meanings or archetypal processes. This is… true CLAIRVOYANCE, the capacity to see in everything the Signature of deeper realities.

As for today’s timing:

• Early morning is especially good for promoting something.
• The New Moon perfects at 11:52 am (2:52 pm).
• At 1:57 pm (4:57 ET), Luna goes VOC. It’s time for a brief break from key actions or contacts, until 2:18 pm (5:18 ET), when Moon enters Aquarius.
• Evening is great for people connections in love, friendship, intimacy or powerful collaborations. We may also discover secrets and heal issues of self-esteem and family.

This all is thanks to Moon’s conjunctions: to sweet Venus at 6:03 PM (9:03 ET), and to transformative Pluto at 8:35 pm (11:35 ET).

Affirmation:
I telepathically contact my true team, and they gather naturally now.

Monday, January 19

We get a burst of energy to think about, to visualize, and to act on our goals.

An exceptional concentration of major aspects combines with today’s assertive numerology of 1, and the still-active New Moon portal, while Moon in Aquarius fuels our spirit of innovation. Most of the aspects are harmonies, and several are related to Uranus, ruler of Moon, Venus and Pluto in independent Aquarius.

• Mental Mercury perfects a trine to Moon’s ruler, brilliant Uranus, stimulating higher cognition.
• Sun sextiles psychic Neptune, bringing opportunities to express our subtle, compassionate or artistic side, and to apply our spiritual gifts in ways that align with our personal goals.
• Sweet Venus continues her conjunction to transformative Pluto, intensifying desires. We can focus with laser clarity, and our powers of manifestation and attraction are optimized. We will want to watch for obsessive or secret desires that could get messy, as Pluto can drag us deliciously along. We can try to keep our cool, and use strong feelings as triggers for inner work on self-esteem or detachment, or if we’re in a relationship, for shared evolution.

We won’t want to sit out today’s powerful alignment for action, as dynamic Mars in Capricorn, sign of his exaltation, sextiles worker Saturn and a trine to exciting Uranus, while the latter perfect a sextile to one another. If we act our dreams now, doors can open.

At 5:45 pm (8:45 ET) Sun enters freeing Aquarius, activating the cusp with Capricorn and precipitating brilliance in strategies and business.

Affirmation:
Nothing can hold me down, I am up in my true, divine place, now and always.

Tuesday, January 20

A day for creativity, spiritual family, mental power and powerful connections.

Sun and Moon in Aquarius bring charisma to friendships and connections.

Mental Mercury makes an early sextile to Neptune in Pisces, the psychic water sign of his rule, strengthening intuition and bringing opportunities to share empathy or express our spiritual and creative gifts.

Just two hours later, at 8:41 am (11:45 ET), the planet of thought joins Sun, Moon, Venus and Pluto in the perceptive sign of Aquarius, helping us express our ideals, develop our intellect and connect with those who share our path of power.

We can use this exciting day to make new connections, explore mental horizons, research something innovative, start a volunteer group for prayer or altruism, communicate or write about activism or humanitarian concerns.

Try to finish work, take key actions and make intentional connections before 6:16 pm (9:16 ET), when Moon goes VOC. At 10:50 pm (1:50 am ET) Lunae enters mystical Pisces.

Affirmation:
I invite divine love to do its healing work in me and through me, here and now.

Wednesday, January 21

Still on the portal of Sunday’s New Moon, we can focus on spiritual tools to support the intentions we set at that time. And we can enjoy romance, mental work and creative connections.

Moon in mystical Pisces favors inner work, such as:

• Meditation
• Dream yoga, interpretation and incubation
• Contact with angels and light beings
• Structuring our spiritual practice
• Renewing visualization materials
• Forgiveness
• Prayer

At 7:49 am (10:49 ET), Sun conjoins Mercury in free Aquarius. We want to and can enrich our minds and express our ideas. With Moon in Pisces, we might go on a shamanic journey, attend a spiritual group or gathering, work on a project requiring imagination, settle a dispute with friends or family, research alternative perspectives, write a proposal, agreement or contract, sign documents, send tweets, messages or emails.

Mars is in sextile to Neptune. We can promote a spiritual, intuitive or compassionate project, inject romance into a steady relationship, produce music or a video, act on our dreams. We should avoid being too easily influenced, or looking through Neptune’s special pair of rose-colored glasses.

Affirmation:
The same power that triggers my opportunities supports me to act on them

Thursday, January 22

Moon in Pisces spotlights the imaginative and mystical.

Mental Mercury conjoins deep Pluto, bringing x-ray vision to our thoughts and healing power to our words. Communications take on an intense tone, and we can persuade others.

Mars perfects a sextile to Neptune. With the planet of action exalted in Capricorn and Neptune in Pisces, the dreamy sign of his rule, we can act to ground: our vision, an art project or a spiritual goal. Promotions and sales can be charming… but focus on being ethical and think twice before letting someone convince you.

Morning is a window of fortune, with a trine from Moon to co-ruler Jupiter in abundant Cancer at 8:41 am (11:41 ET).

We feel confident, expansive and inspired. Spiritual work can be filled with love and faith. An altruistic endeavor can expand. Combined with the Mercury-Pluto conjunction, our words become imbued with resurrecting power; we can lift others’ spirits and convince them of almost anything.

The rest of the day is great for prayer, mantras, journaling and other inward ways of using words.

Affirmation:
My words are not just ideas, they’re doors of power that allow Spirit to enter into situations and resurrect the good in them, here and now.

Friday, January 23

We can get a lot done and take action towards our goals.

Sun in liberating Aquarius conjoins Pluto the powerful, unleashing our confidence and determination, while after finishing her transit through mystical Pisces, Moon enters restless Aries.

If we’re up in the wee hours this morning, 12:59 am (3:59 ET) Moon sextile Uranus, if we’re up we can provoke an opportunity for sudden, results in an innovative direction.

1:17 am (4:17 ET) Mars enters Aquarius. The steady, committed energy of Mars in Capricorn gives way to the rebellious, idealistic approach of Mars in Aquarius.

In the wee hours, Moon gets charged with constructive, creative power by conjoining Saturn and Neptune.

At 5:26 am (8:26 ET), Moon enters quick, bold Aries, where she keeps us jumping.

Then, at 5:41 am (8:41 ET), she sextiles dynamic ruler Mars, getting us moving and favoring sales, promotion, activism and other bold, constructive initiatives.

The rest of day is full of potential, thanks to Moon’s chain of sextiles that generate opportunities. At 11:33 am (2:33 ET), she sextiles Pluto. Reach out to someone who can have a decisive influence; or take transformative action. At 12:17 pm (3:17 ET), Moon’s sextile to Sun facilitates teamwork, socializing and sharing our feelings openly. At 3:16 pm (6:16 ET), Moon sextiles Mercury to make afternoon great for connecting with spiritual family and idealistic colleagues, and to promote a cause, product or service.

Friendship, romance and business expand tonight, as at 8:18 pm (11:18 ET), Moon sextiles Venus, lady of love and values.

Invocation:
Archangel Michael, pull me out of my comfort zone and move me to share my ideas, service and energy, here and now.

Saturday, January 24

This morning, we can assert our influence and take the reins of our lives.

A conjunction from leader Mars to forceful Pluto brings out the leadership potential of Moon in Aries. We can clarify the kind of life we wish to lead, or the mark we wish to leave, and use our energy in assertive ways that promote, insist on and get what we want.

Write it down, take independent action, avoid getting distracted, try a new approach.

Today’s numerology of 6 brings good fortune and protection. But still, avoid direct confrontation.

Forge ahead before 1:36 pm (4:36 ET), when Moon goes VOC for the rest of day. Do research for fun, work on spiritual healing.

Affirmation:
I am not alone. The Presence that sent me is with me, opening my way and supporting my success, here and now.

Sunday, January 25

Moon is VOC in Aries until 10:05 am (1:05 pm ET), when she enters Taurus, sign of her exaltation, giving us a few wonderful hours to enjoy nature, a rich brunch, and music. If we have work or business to do, this is a great time to apply the assertive strength of the Mars-Pluto conjunction, to improve your connections for business, a project or something related to security.

At 1:27 pm (4:27 ET), emotional intelligence may wane, as Moon squares pushy Mars, followed by another square to intense Pluto at 4:07 pm (7:07 ET). We can make headway with independent activities such as research, major cleaning or decluttering, playing online chess or armchair activism.

At 8:47 pm (11:47 ET) Moon reaches Second Quarteruarter, a great lunation for reviewing our progress on things we intended or set in motion at last week’s New Moon.

At 10-11 Taurus, the Sabian symbol for today’s lunation says:

A WOMAN WATERING FLOWERS IN HER GARDEN… Development of the powers of the mind on which ego-consciousness is based… The psycho-mental nature… takes form [from]… biological functions and drives… “As the roots, so the flowers”… The consciousness attaches itself to this wondrous efflorescence; it lavishes its attention upon it, its love — alas, usually a possessive kind of love (“This is my garden!”)… CULTIVATION.

The above symbol evokes one of the beings from the Winter Solstice tradition of ancient Mexico: the hummingbird, one of Archangel Michael’s many spiritual cousins. The hummingbird, “colibri precioso”, is the warrior essence of the newborn Sun. His only weapon is his tiny sharp beak, which he wields to defend his floral territory, where he feeds on nectar. This is a beautiful symbol of spiritual warfare: guarding the space our where our consciousness can flower.

Evening favors independent work.

Invocation:
I call on the hummingbird essence to protect my space and energy, that my higher self may flower, here and now.

Monday, January 26

A day to consolidate our gains in business, artistic endeavors and relationships.

Moon in abundant Taurus combines with the power-numerology of 8 to support tangible progress.

At 5:31 am (8:31 ET) Moon emerges from a square to Mercury the messenger, to another ruler Venus, stimulating creativity and sensual, sweet or productive connections.

At 9:37 am (12:37 pm ET) Neptune enters Aries. We’ll come out of a fog and feel mobilized to pursue our dreams and spirituality in a more assertive and independent manner. (See more on this in our January General Influences.)

4:41 pm (7:41 ET) Moon sextiles Jupiter, facilitating connection, romance, inspiration, education, promotional activities, and—with both planets in the sign of their exaltation—expanding the abundance potential of Taurus Moon.

We can do business, launch a promotional campaign, take care of money, make an investment, lease or rent property, take on new staff, set up a new business, work for long-lasting results or stability, security and protection, buy a home, open a bank account, reorganize stock portfolio, remodel or decorate.

Affirmation:
Spirit sends abundant love and supply, and is finding ways of getting them to me, here and now.

Tuesday, January 27

We roar and the world responds.

Assertive Mars perfects his conjunction to Pluto, emboldening us to act for the change we desire and, in Aquarius, to shape networks and break free of codependence, people-pleasing and limits on our potential.

At 8:43 am (11:43 ET), Moon conjoins ruler Uranus, impelling us to step outside the box. We can journal, read and do emotional healing; and we can connect with our authentic instincts.

At 9:58 am (12:58 pm ET), we can direct our inspiration constructively as Moon sextiles Saturn the builder. Implement long-range plans, work on business and financial growth, apply for a permit, or reach out to a teacher, elder, boss, client or authority figure.

At 12:55 pm (3:55 ET), Moon enters loquacious Gemini. Her verbal dexterity gets an upgrade as just 3 minutes later, she sextiles imaginative Neptune. Develop your intuitive and creative gifts, take a class, promote your spiritual business, reach out to a channel or guide.

At 6:52 pm (9:52 ET) Moon trines Pluto, still in conjunction with Mars. We’re emboldened to express ourselves, persuade others, defend someone, declutter our inbox, bookshelves or papers, set a limit, negotiate and connect with colleagues, clients and siblings in assertive ways.

Affirmation:
Divine love and power speak through me to bring forth good in this situation now.

Wednesday, January 28

Moon in mentally restless Gemini makes trines that give us confidence, eloquence and charm.

Connections go particularly well this morning and afternoon, as at 3:06 am (6:06 ET), she trines Sun, at 12:01 pm (3:01 ET), she trines ruler Mercury and at 12:32 pm (3:32 ET), she trines sweet Venus.

The assertive numerology of 1 gives us energy to express ourselves or dive into something related to communications. We can make a short trip, give a presentation, work on sales, start a new project, share your ideas with associates, authority figures or clients, obtain a contract, present a proposal, connect with siblings, neighbors or clients.

Affirmation:
Each time I reach out, my confidence grows, now and always.

Thursday, January 29

Morning is great for connecting with others, and afternoon and evening for independent spiritual or creative activities.

This morning, Moon in loquacious Gemini moves us to express ourselves. Ruler Mercury conjoins Venus, our words can be beautiful and magnetic; communications bring love and prosperity.

Use this energy early, as at 11:57 am (2:57 pm ET) Moon goes VOC. We get a few hours to play word games, do riddles and crossword puzzles, sing karaoke, hang out with siblings or neighbors, read trivia, use affirmations just to feel good.

At 2:32 pm (5:32 ET), Moon enters sensitive Cancer. Just 8 minutes later, at 2:40 pm (5:40 ET) she squares Neptune. At the critical degree of zero Aries, we get an intense stimulation of intuition, compassion and creative imagination. We’re receptive to vibrations and invisible transmissions. It’s best to keep a low profile and focus on independent, spiritual activities such as journaling, prayer, meditation, or connecting with angels. Avoid any potentially iffy situations and energies: drinking, using plant medicine, consulting a medium or an unfamiliar channel, hanging out in a crowd, and so on.

We can create new visualization materials, set up or renovate our altar, bless our prayer space, upgrade our spirituality bookshelf, invite the angels to fill our home, start a new course of metaphysical study, donate to a worthy cause.

Invocation:
Archangel Michael and Archangelina Faith, please come into my home and fill each space with your hosts and your blue forcefield now.

Friday, January 30

A great day for connections with family, clients, our public, or someone we can help.

Moon in Cancer combines with the sweet numerology of 3 to favor family connections. We can care for, enjoy and bless our home, or cultivate empathy, compassion, intuition and positive imagination.

Communicative Mercury and affectional Venus each make a quincunx to fortunate Jupiter, bringing out the benefits of Cancer Moon for business, particularly real estate or something related to families, nature or women.

Evening is great for connections, for promoting or for campaigning for something, thanks to Moon’s quincunx to sweet Venus and her conjunction to expansive Jupiter. Intentional connections enrich our finances and relationships.

Affirmation:
Divine love flows to me through the best and highest channels, now and always.

Saturday, January 31

This morning favors business and work, while afternoon brings passion, creativity, romance and radiant heart energy.

Today’s numerology of 4 is ruled by taskmaster Saturn, giving a practical bent to today’s influences.

Venus, goddess of love and values, perfects her quincunx to Jupiter, planet of abundance, fueling charm, joy, warmth and prosperity.

The day starts with Moon in fertile Cancer. We get our house in order, work on emotional issues, search for new living quarters, work on real-estate, home repair or business.

Finance and business are particularly favorable from 11:55 on, when Moon sextiles Uranus in Taurus, sign of prosperity. Opportunities arise as we explore new directions, or expand our digital or online business.

At 1:52 pm (4:52 ET), Moon trines Saturn and we can ground the energy of the fertile Cancer Moon, or organize our home or family business.

At 4:09 pm (7:09 ET), Moon enters warm Leo. At 4:23 pm (7:23 ET), she forms a trine to mysterious Neptune, bringing out the creative, romantic side of this placement. Take in a film or an art exhibit, woo your love-object, express your love and gratitude, use meditation and prayer to fuel your heart chakra.

Affirmation:
I give thanks for the love energy in my heart, and I feel it expanding to reach all life, here and now.
