Your Daily Horoscopes for Monday, January 25th
by Rick Levine
General Horoscope
Our expectations may be unrealistic now as we catch glimpses of what’s to come. Messenger Mercury turned retrograde on January 5 and as it turns direct today, our goals seem closer. Certain areas of our lives that were put on hold start moving ahead again. An exciting Sun-Uranus alignment makes us think anything is possible. Meanwhile, the rowdy Leo Moon slips into levelheaded Virgo at 10:45 pm EST, helping us regain a more practical perspective.
Aries Horoscope MAR 21 – APR 19
You might have thought all was sitting pretty within your world, but it becomes apparent today that something was wrong all along. You may not be able to fix it immediately, but that won’t stop you from trying now. Keep in mind that your tendency to impulsively respond to a crisis isn’t always the most productive solution. Putting things right is going to take some serious time and thought. Proceed with great determination but don’t expect miracles overnight.
Taurus Horoscope APR 20 – MAY 20
You can’t help but feel frustrated if you haven’t made much tangible progress toward your goals this year. Nevertheless, there’s no reason to fret because the planets asked you to make some very big plans and then required you to begin very slowly — so slowly that it may seem as if you’ve been moving backwards. Actually, no time has been wasted at all. If you remain patient and persistent, you’ll see over the next month how your delayed start was just what you needed to be successful.
Gemini Horoscope MAY 21 – JUN 20
Although you may be weary of all the little setbacks you’ve already faced this year, you are rather hopeful that your path is finally clearing now. Even if a series of mix-ups and frayed loose ends are taxing your patience, don’t even think about giving up today. There were important lessons to learn over these last few weeks, but it might take additional time to figure out what they mean in regards to your future. In the meantime, try not to judge yourself harshly for what you haven’t yet finished. Being a student of life is an integral part of the soul’s journey.
Cancer Horoscope JUN 21 – JUL 22
Your thoughts have been preoccupied with all kinds of relationship issues over these last weeks and it’s not always been easy to face the truth. Conflicting emotional needs, stirred by Mercury’s recent retrograde through your 7th House of Others, now seem to need immediate resolution. But current tensions may be a result of simple misunderstandings. The only way to find out is to engage in an open dialogue. Luckily, the tides are turning now, enabling everyone involved to be more forgiving. A strong partnership starts with honest communication.
Leo Horoscope JUL 23 – AUG 22
These past few weeks may have thrown you a few curve balls, making it difficult to follow through with your normal daily routine. This period of testing isn’t quite over, but today marks a turning point in the energetic flow. Pay attention to what unresolved issues resurface now, for these specific problem areas hold keys to the solutions of even larger questions. The pace of positive change picks up over the next few days if you’re willing to push for progress.
Virgo Horoscope AUG 23 – SEP 22
Although you are in the midst of a highly creative phase, your ideas have been unable to gain traction this year. You might even feel as if you are running around in circles or covering old ground. Since Mercury is your key planet, its three-week retrograde cycle affected you more strongly than most. Thankfully, this deja vu phase is coming to its conclusion. You’ve been treading water long enough; it’s finally time to move forward. Keep in mind, this energetic shift can take a few days to find its rhythm, but you should prepare for blastoff at any given moment.
Libra Horoscope SEP 23 – OCT 22
Maybe Nietzsche was right when he suggested that we live in a cycle of eternal recurrence, revisiting the same issues again and again. However, this feeling that you’ve been here before is actually an opportunity to break out of your old patterns. Strong foundations are crucial for your future success, and you have a chance to firm up your base as Mercury turns direct in your 4th House of Roots. What you start now can develop into something of lasting value if you’re committed to do the work.
Scorpio Horoscope OCT 23 – NOV 21
You’re beginning to realize that the future is coming at you faster than ever before. The pace of your everyday life may have slowed down to a crawl while Mercury was retrograde in your 3rd House of Immediate Environment. Or, even if events were moving at a more rapid pace, you felt lethargic and couldn’t catch up. However, the time for you to make changes is today. Look back over the past month and decide if you want to stay in the comfort zone you created or if you’re ready to explore unfamiliar ground. Sometimes “later” really means “never.” Act now or forever hold your peace.
Sagittarius Horoscope NOV 22 – DEC 21
You have an opportunity to experience some healing around issues of self-esteem now that logical Mercury is turning direct in your 2nd House of Values. This personal challenge is about examining your core beliefs, your sense of self and how you built a philosophical foundation that protects you from your own emotional pain. You might put a lot of energy into making people think you’re wide open to new experiences when secretly you’re not. Fortunately, the solution is simple today; change the way you think, which in turn opens new paths for the adventure of self-discovery.
Capricorn Horoscope DEC 22 – JAN 19
You might feel weighted down by your own heavy thoughts, but you don’t seem to be able to work your way out of your current predicament. It’s as if you’re close to understanding something very important, but it keeps vanishing like a dream fading in the morning light. For the past three weeks, cerebral Mercury has trudged backward in your sign requiring you to go over things one more time to make sure you have them right. Now, as it turns direct, review time is over. The future is calling; don’t look back.
Aquarius Horoscope JAN 20 – FEB 18
You are on the verge of your dreams coming true. You replayed your favorite fantasies over and over again while mental Mercury retrograded through your 12th House of Spirituality during the past three weeks. But imagination opens the way for reality as quicksilver Mercury’s direct turn motivates you to get real now. You still have plenty of sweat equity to invest but, thankfully, your revitalized determination can give substance to your visions. Intention plus hard work equals magic.
Pisces Horoscope FEB 19 – MAR 20
Your friends and associates are simultaneously a great help and a major pain in the neck today. They may remind you of a past hurtful situation without even realizing it. You might choose to push these memories away — or you can embrace conversations that initiate a deeper healing process. Open your heart and you’ll experience interesting changes within the next week or so. As Lao Tzu wrote, “Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.”
