Your General Horoscopes for the Week of January 21

Claire Petulengro, Astrologer

From The Astrology Room

 

ARIES (March 21st-April 20th)

No problem is too small to be shared. Please remember that my friend, as it really will make your life a better place to be. New faces with strange names bring luck to your career and finances and you begin to work out how to make your life a more fun place to be.

 

TAURUS (April 21st-May 21st)

Travel is well starred and you start to feel more in control of life and where yours is going. Try not to tell lies for others this week or it will come back on you. It’s vital you keep your nose clean as new faces in your life are working out whether you could be a long term option.

 

GEMINI (May 22nd-June 21st)

Whatever changes this week brings, embrace them. They are stepping stones to a better life with more adventures. You can pretend you want a predictable life, but you and I know different. Debts you settle now can do much for your credit rating.

 

CANCER (June 22nd-July 23rd)

Are you talking for the sake of it, or do you really mean the words you say? Only you can answer that question with any real honesty Cancer. By being truthful to yourself, you will get the respect you crave from others. Family come round for you just in the nick of time on Friday.

 

LEO (July 24th-August 23rd)

Try not to do favours for others which you know they would not do in return for you. I’m proud of you and all you have achieved, but a jealous face seems to know just how to hurt you with their words. Don’t allow them airplay, but get on with the many other commitments you have this week.

 

VIRGO (August 24th-September 23rd)

If there is a bad habit you wanted to give up or someone you wanted to get out of your life, then this is the week you can do it. You may not realise it, but the stars have given you the gift of foresight so you will be able to guess the next move of others. Family prove demanding, but give them time and space.

 

LIBRA (September 24th-October 23rd)

Do not get involved in futile arguments with others or you will only end up alone and frustrated. Without realising it, you have achieved more in this month than you normally do in six. Try to take the time out to find pride in all you’ve done. An important face will soon give you recognition if you do.

 

SCORPIO (October 24th-November 22nd)

There is a certain amount of frustration in your chart which is making it hard for you to get things done your way. Just try to go with the flow my friend, as you’ll have plenty of chance to make adjustments by Friday. By showing you have tried it their way, you will prove that you listened.

 

SAGITTARIUS (November 23rd-December 21st)

If your cup is empty, then go fill it up Sagittarius. I see from your stars that you have spent much of this year waiting for others to do things for you. Change this and show how proactive you can be. It’s what will take you to the next stage of your very exciting adventure.

 

CAPRICORN (December 22nd-January 20th)

News you were waiting for has been delayed, but this gives you the perfect opportunity to get out there and do what needs to be done for yourself. You can shine in front of the very faces you have spent months trying to get to notice you. Don’t leave a debt, but contact those concerned.

 

AQUARIUS (January 21st-February 19th)

If you would allow your heart and your head to communicate, then you would see that they are actually working with each other and not against each other. Making time for the younger generation can teach you about what is really important to you. It may even lead to you picking personal over professional this week.

 

PISCES (February 20th-March 20th)

Try to make sure that you get to where you need to be on time this week. It seems from your stars that a mistake you made over the weekend has left you with little or no confidence. Mistakes are how we learn though Pisces, so be proud of your experience and go on to be a better person for it.

Weekly Karmic Forecast by Kelly Beard: January 20 – 26, 2019

This is the video version of the Karmic Tools Weekly Forecast for January 20 – 26 2019, as read by the Author.

The Karmic Tools Weekly Forecast by Kelly M Beard covers the current planetary transits which affect people in different ways and to various degrees of intensity. Take notice when it is a Personal planet (Sun / Moon / Mercury / Venus / Mars) interacting with a Social (Jupiter/Saturn) or Collective planet (Uranus / Neptune/Pluto). And pay extremely close attention when it is a Social planet interacting with a Collective planet because that means something *big* is brewing that will move large groups of people along their evolutionary paths. Tuning in to the energy and rhythm of the planets can serve as a useful *guide* as you move along your Individual Path. It also helps to understand your place within the context of the larger Social & Collective Story. On this youtube, you will find out how these energies tend to manifest, as well as guidance and direction. *NOTE* There are some days when there are NO CONTACTS (besides the Moon), please note that there are no missing entries, I just discuss the actual Activations of each week + the day they happen.

Rising of Divine Feminine – Eclipse at Supermoon Amplifies Energies

Rising of Divine Feminine – Eclipse at Supermoon Amplifies Energies

Our world is in turmoil on so many levels, the intensity we’re already feeling being amplified as we head into the January 20-21 dramatic lunar eclipse at the first supermoon of 2019. Against this backdrop is something we will see increasingly this year – a rising of the divine feminine. Continue reading for background on what this means for society, each of us personally, and future generations.

Divine Feminine

As a reminder, the divine feminine is a universal aspect of all human beings. Each person has an inner divine masculine and inner divine feminine. With the patriarchy long dominating society, the divine feminine took a back seat. Feminine qualities of empathy and compassion were discounted in favor of patriarchal expression involving ego power, domination, and competition. That patriarchal train is coming to the end of the line.

With society’s awakening the old outdated patriarchal models are crumbling. This is making space for a brand-new model that honors all beings and embraces divine feminine attributes.

Predictions 2019

In my “Predictions 2019” eBook published last week, I describe a mega alchemy of society under way: “During 2019 we will see a growing resurgence of divine feminine energy that will spark transformative debates within halls of power and begin to heal a deeply divided society.”

We saw the beginnings of this resurgence in 2017 and 2018, but 2019 will be a marker year for the divine feminine. Women, and those supportive of empowering women, will be coming forward as leaders of this new movement. We’re already seeing this in the US where record numbers of women were elected to office and selected to serve as industry leaders. That is only the beginning.

Women’s Marches on Global Scale

This weekend on January 19 is the third annual global women’s march – likely to be the largest to date. Why are people marching? They will march for women’s rights and empowerment within society – but the larger container is human rights and freedoms. Issues of this movement include health care, education, families, equitable and compassionate treatment of all groups, world peace, the environment, climate, and the sustainability of the planet. Stay tuned, this is not merely a trend but a massive societal overhaul.

Breakthroughs Now

This weekend’s powerful eclipse gateway can be like a lightning bolt for bringing something important to fruition. Consider what you have going on – deadlock in a relationship, stalemate in a work project, confusion about next steps on your path – invite this lightning bolt energy to stimulate the breakthrough you need. I emphasize need, not from the ego level but higher view of spirit. Part of the process is being willing to trust that there is a divine right orchestration and outcome, letting go of the ego need to control the timing or details. Next part is embodying the mindset of celebration, seeing yourself celebrating a new energy or opening. Then, holding that mindset, allowing the miracles to unfold.

Lunar Eclipse

Lunar Eclipse

We are finally at the point we have been preparing for what seems like lifetimes. The last few months in particular have been a wild ride as the cosmic forces have intensified and accelerated our process of healing, growth and evolution. The Full Moon Lunar Eclipse, whose energies will extend into early February, is the culmination of all that we have experienced so far. As such it symbolizes a new beginning and gives us the chance to move fully into a new reality, into a new Earth reality.

Whether you are ready or not this Eclipse will greatly influence your life. The intense energies will amplify everything. No matter where you are in your life the eclipse will take you out of your comfort zone. It is time to embark on a new journey to claim your inner wisdom, to love deeply, dare greatly and leap without needing to be assured of success!

Much love

Kate

Your Daily Cosmic Calendar for Monday, January 21

COSMIC CALENDAR

During the two days after any full moon — especially one that served a dual purpose as a Total Lunar Eclipse—there are many ways to play the role of goodwill ambassador around the globe. Helping you connect more sensitively to the hearts and souls of billions of earthly lives is a grand trine in fire signs. This geometric dynamo is composed of the moon in Leo making trines to Mars in Aries (6:20 p.m.), plus Venus and Jupiter in Sagittarius (8:45 p.m. and 9:13 p.m., respectively).

Another trine between Ceres and Chiron in water signs (6:12 p.m.) — and happening just two minutes after the lunar trine to Mars — provides added encouragement. However, as is often the case, blocking actions by cosmic discord-generators try to stymie your efforts as Mars squares Saturn (3:49 a.m.), Ceres and Uranus form an oblique, 150-degree tie (2:32 p.m.), and Mercury squares knowledge-wisdom producer Pallas (9:58 p.m.). Stay above the fray by tuning out self-doubts and being adamant about changing the world for the highest good.

[Note to readers: All times are calculated as Pacific Standard Time. Be sure to adjust all times according to your own local time so the alignments noted above will be exact for your location.]

Martin Luther King Jr. Day in the United States

Love one another

Martin Luther King Jr. Day in the United States

Martin Luther King Day is a federal holiday held on the third Monday of January. It celebrates the life and achievements of Martin Luther King Jr., an influential American civil rights leader. He is most well-known for his campaigns to end racial segregation on public transport and for racial equality in the United States.

Is Martin Luther King Jr. Day a Public Holiday?

Martin Luther King Jr. Day is a public holiday. It is a day off for the general population, and schools and most businesses are closed.

What Do People Do?

Martin Luther King Day is a relatively new federal holiday and there are few long standing traditions. It is seen as a day to promote equal rights for all Americans, regardless of their background. Some educational establishments mark the day by teaching their pupils or students about the work of Martin Luther King and the struggle against racial segregation and racism. In recent years, federal legislation has encouraged Americans to give some of their time on this day as volunteers in citizen action groups.

Martin Luther King Day, also known as Martin Luther King’s birthday and Martin Luther King Jr Day, is combined with other days in different states. For example, it is combined with Civil Rights Day in Arizona and New Hampshire, while it is observed together with Human Rights Day in Idaho. It is also a day that is combined with Robert E. Lee’s birthday in some states. The day is known as Wyoming Equality Day in the state of Wyoming.

Public Life

Martin Luther King Day is a federal holiday, but has slightly different names in some states. Non-essential Government departments are closed, as are many corporations. Some schools and colleges close but others stay open and teach their students about the life and work of Martin Luther King.

Small companies, such as grocery stores and restaurants tend to be open, although a growing number are choosing to close on this day. Some compensate by opening on Washington’s Birthday instead. Recent federal legislation encourages Americans to give some of their time on Martin Luther King Day as volunteers in citizen action groups. Public transit systems may or may not operate on their regular schedule.

Background

Martin Luther King was an important civil rights activist. He was a leader in the movement to end racial segregation in the United States. His most famous address was the “I Have A Dream” speech. He was an advocate of non-violent protest and became the youngest man to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. He was assassinated in 1968.

In 1968, shortly after Martin Luther King died, a campaign was started for his birthday to become a holiday to honor him. After the first bill was introduced, trade unions lead the campaign for the federal holiday. It was endorsed in 1976. Following support from the musician Stevie Wonder with his single “Happy Birthday” and a petition with six million signatures, the bill became law in 1983. Martin Luther King Day was first observed in 1986, although it was not observed in all states until the year 2000. In 1990, the Wyoming legislature designated Martin Luther King Jr/Wyoming Equality Day as a legal holiday.

Today Is Monday, January 21, Today We Pause & Honor The Life & Achievements of Martin Luther King Jr.

Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.
(excerpt  from Rev. Martin Luther King’s Speech At the “March on Washington” in 1963)

 

“I say to you today, my friends, so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream. I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed, “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.” I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia, sons of former slaves and the sons of former slaveowners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood. I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice. I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.

I HAVE A DREAM TODAY!

I have a dream that one day down in Alabama — with its vicious racists, with its Governor having his lips dripping with the words of interposition and nullification — one day right there in Alabama, little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers.

I HAVE A DREAM TODAY!

I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, and every hill and mountain shall be made low. The rough places will be plain and the crooked places will be made straight, “and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together.”

This is our hope. This is the faith that I go back to the South with. With this faith we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope.  With this faith we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of brother-hood. With this faith we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle together, to go to jail together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free one day.  And this will be the day. This will be the day when all of God’s children will be able to sing with new meaning, “My country ’tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing. Land where my father died, land of the pilgrim’s pride, from every mountainside, let freedom ring.” And if America is to be a great nation, this must become true.

So let freedom ring from the prodigious hilltops of New Hampshire; let freedom ring from the mighty mountains of New York; let freedom ring from the heightening Alleghenies of Pennsylvania; let freedom ring from the snow-capped Rockies of Colorado; let freedom ring from the curvaceous slopes of California. But not only that. Let freedom ring from Stone Mountain of Georgia; let freedom ring from Lookout Mountain of Tennessee; let freedom ring from every hill and mole hill of Mississippi. “From every mountainside, let freedom ring.”

And when this happens, and when we allow freedom to ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God’s children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual: “Free at last. Free at last. Thank God Almighty, we are free at last.”
