Aries (March 21-April 19)

The long hours you might have spent at work during the past week have certainly put a strain on you and it seems that you only have this Sunday to take control back.

While you might feel the need to sleep the whole day, perhaps you should get involved in more active endeavors because although it seems counterproductive, those will relax you better.

Check every day your Aries Daily Horoscope.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

It seems that the current disposition is prompting you to aggressively ask for what you desire and you also have very little patience in obtaining it.

Maybe you should reconsider your demands and see whether you are actually entitled to make them. None of the people around you needs to be treated in a patronizing manner.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You might be going through a rougher time and you are surely in need for warmth and understanding. But as usual, you are not very good at asking for this in a straightforward manner and you will probably take the long road.

This might translate into some irrational behavior from your side and many people won’t understand why you are doing this.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Your life is going to be like a busy airport today, with many people coming in an out and although it might not be the best metaphor, this is surely how you will feel.

This might also include some melancholia and nostalgia in case you enter in contact with people you haven’t spoken to in a long time and who bring news to you.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You will find that this Sunday helps you reconnect with particular people you might have lost contact with and you’ll get the chance to recuperate the lost time.

And while you’re at it, why not showcase your abilities because you never know what this might help you achieve. At its best you can get a new job or who knows.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You seem to be very proud about something you managed to achieve and the result of which has just arrived.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

A new side of your partner might be revealed today, either by an out of the ordinary situation you are put face to face with or because they just happen to be very honest with you.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Someone special in your life is inspiring you to be a better person and you put most of your hopes in this direction.

But what threatens to destroy your goals and disappoint you is exactly your own naivety and the fact that you don’t seem to understand that we are all human and no one is perfect and you can’t trust anyone entirely.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You will feel a big desire for admiration and respect, especially if you get the chance to join a select group in a particular activity today.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

This is going to be quite an agitated day as you can’t really contend your thoughts and are constantly waiting for something to happen.

But you have no idea what you are waiting for. However, at a subconscious level perhaps you are just being stressed about tomorrow’s events, especially if you are going through something new.

Check every day your Aquarius Daily Horoscope.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

This Sunday you’ll have to learn a thing or two about having fun without too much money on hand and at the same time to actually respect others.

A complicated day otherwise if you think about not being helped by your family, if you asking them for money or such. But overall it will keep you away from temptations and getting into unnecessary troubles.

All Signs

On Monday we have the first Full Moon of the year, which occurs close to Mars retrograde, which is also in Cancer. This gives us an opportunity to resolve challenging family situations. It will fortify us with resolve and the courage to make things right. It means this year we can bring about slow and steady change to break free from domestic oppression. Meanwhile, romantic relationships might blow hot and cold this week; however, by the weekend, loving vibes will be the tenor of the day. In fact, on Saturday, lasting romance is promising! I read somewhere that studies show that people in the throes of romance wear different clothes. And I sort of see that. But actually, I thought they spent most of the time half naked.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

This week the Sun is at the top of your chart acting like a spotlight on you. Because this light is flattering, people might ask you to take on increased responsibilities or offer you a promotion because to them, you shine as competent and capable! Nevertheless, Monday’s Full Moon will create tension between the demands of home and family versus the demands of your external world or your professional life. The good news is that with Jupiter in your House of Communications, you’re optimistic and upbeat, which means you will handle things with a positive attitude. Meanwhile, many of you are having secret flirtations and love affairs, which is exciting. Others will see new ways to make money. If this happens, act quickly because this opportunity is brief.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You want to travel and get a change of scenery! Keep in mind that a change of scenery can take place by doing something different in your own city. Explore new restaurants, parks and antique shops. The bottom line is to shake up your daily routine. Be aware that the Full Moon on Monday could be an accident-prone time for you, so pay attention to everything you say and do. This week relations with friends and members of groups will be warm and rewarding. In fact, this is an ideal time to share your hopes and dreams for the future with someone to get their feedback. It’s also a good week to study and learn something new. (I’m exploring ways to eat sweet potatoes because, they’re a Blue Zone food.)

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Keep an eye on your possessions and your money because Monday’s Full Moon will agitate both your Money Houses. You might have to settle some financial affairs, including debts with others or credit card companies. You might have to resolve how to deal with shared responsibilities. You might also deal with differing value systems. Whatever the case, you will do this with skill because with Venus at the top of your chart, your relations with authority figures are excellent. In fact, this placement of Venus might trigger a new romance with someone older or someone who is more established or like a mentor to you. (The best labour-saving device is marrying rich.)

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

This is a tricky time for you because the Moon is your ruler; and on Monday the first Full Moon of the year takes place in your sign. The energy of every Full Moon lasts for about 48 hours, so you’ll feel this heightened energy leading up to Monday and into Tuesday. The best way to handle this is to be patient with close friends, partners and spouses because this is where you will feel increased tension. But first, relax and be more patient with yourself. Mars retrograde is taking place in your sign, which might create demands on you that are frustrating. You might expect others to help you, and feel disappointed if they don’t come through. Keep in mind this is temporary and things will look better by the end of the week. Definitely.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You might feel stressed about health issues or staying on top of the demands of your job due to Monday’s Full Moon. Some of you might also have increased concerns about a pet. With every Full Moon, our problems seem to get worse as we approach the Full Moon; and then after the it peaks, these same problems inexplicably disappear. Go figure. Keep this in mind if you feel at loose ends at the beginning of the week. Meanwhile, financial matters are looking good right now. In fact, money and help from others can come your way. You can accomplish a lot in terms of small successes, day by day. “Okay, I’m dressed.”

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Virgo parents will have to be patient because this first Full Moon of the year might create tension with your kids. Perhaps you’re ready to turn over a new leaf, which means everyone has to clean up their act? But maybe your personal resolve is not shared by others? Be smart. Lighten up and be happy for small successes. Baby steps. After all, Rome wasn’t built in a day, and I hear they’re still working on it. Fortunately, relations with partners and spouses are warm and mutually rewarding. However, be vigilant because this is an accident-prone time for your kids. Be supportive. Everything takes time.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

As you read this, you might be experiencing tension with family members because the Full Moon on Monday could create a tug-of-war between the demands of home and family versus the demands of your external world. Furthermore, something unexpected or surprising might take place at home or within the family. Actually, this is a good time to pause and reassess your motivation and direction in life. Refine your career goals instead of starting new ventures. Be patient with authority figures. Don’t overwork or push yourself too hard. Fortunately, coworkers are supportive and things at work are flowing well. And there’s always lunch hour – when truth is stranger than fiction.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Pay attention to everything you say and do because this is an accident-prone time for you because of the Full Moon. Obviously, an accident doesn’t have to happen, but this energy could distract you because it hypes your emotions as well as the feelings of everyone else. For example, it can trigger arguments and outbursts with others. Slow down and take it easy. Meanwhile, this week will bring you many opportunities to socialize and enjoy sports events, fun activities with kids and romantic outings. You might want to rethink some travel plans and do something less ambitious. You might choose to visit some place you’ve been before.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Many of you are concerned with financial matters right now as well as dealing with your possessions and property because Monday’s Full Moon vibrates across both your Money Houses, which will cause something to come to a climax – or hopefully, a resolution. Nevertheless, keep an eye on your belongings and your money because something unexpected could impact them. For example, you might find money; you might lose money. Protect what you own against loss, theft or damage. Meanwhile, you’ll enjoy redecorating your digs and making things more attractive or interesting. You might entertain to show someone your clever ideas. “I made this mobile out of champagne corks and beer cans.”

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

The first Full Moon of this year is opposite your sign, which means you will feel it. More specifically, you might feel tension with spouses and partners – even members of the general public. You might do something impulsively or react to a provocation without thinking. Be careful. Avoid doing or saying something you might later regret because you value your good reputation in the eyes of others. However, this Full Moon could also lead to a better understanding of your closest relationships. It might curb negative behaviour and encourage building a healthier more supportive bond with someone as this year wears on. With Venus in your House of Communications, you are understanding, patient, diplomatic and charming. (That’s a bonus.)

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

The first Full Moon of the year on Monday is tricky for your sign because it could stir up feelings of insecurity and self-doubt. It might also trigger misunderstandings and tension with work colleagues. Remember that the antidote to anger is patience. Resist the urge to lash out or have a biting retort to someone because you might later regret it. Think of your long-term objective. You have to work with these people on an ongoing basis. Basically, you want to do what’s best for you, which is to survive in your job in the happiest way possible. Finances look good right now. Money might come to you. In turn, some of you are buying beautiful things for yourself and loved ones.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Your relationships with friends or groups might be stressed now due to the energy of the Full Moon on Monday. (This tension might have started on Sunday and will last until late Tuesday.) It could be triggered by something unexpected. Perhaps a friend will say or do something that catches you off guard? Or someone new and different might enter the picture? This might create problems with romantic partners as well as your kids. One saving grace is that fair Venus is in your sign now, and Venus always pacifies and charms most situations. Venus will help you make peace with others and enjoy good times. A blessing!

Moon Phase

The Moon’s current phase for today and tonight is a Waxing Gibbous phase. Visible through most of the night sky setting a few hours before sunrise. This phase is when the moon is more than 50% illuminated but not yet a Full Moon. The phase lasts about 7 days with the moon becoming more illuminated each day until the Full Moon.

During a Waxing Gibbous the moon rises in the east in mid-afternoon and is high in the eastern sky at sunset. The word Gibbous first appeared in the 14th century and has its roots in the Latin word “gibbosus” meaning humpbacked.

Today’s Waxing Gibbous Phase

The Waxing Gibbous on January 12 has an illumination of 98%. This is the percentage of the Moon illuminated by the Sun. The illumination is constantly changing and can vary up to 10% a day. On January 12 the Moon is 13.54 days old. This refers to how many days it has been since the last New Moon. It takes 29.53 days for the Moon to orbit the Earth and go through the lunar cycle of all 8 Moon phases.

Today’s Moon Sign: ♋ Cancer

The current zodiac moon sign is Cancer, positioned at 6.63° within the sign. The Moon entered Cancer on Jan 11, 11:00 PM and will shift into Leo on Jan 13, 10:26 PM. The zodiac moon sign represents the position of the Moon as it moves through the twelve signs of the zodiac. Each zodiac moon sign lasts about 2 to 2.5 days as the Moon travels through that part of the sky.

13 January 2025 Current Moon Phase for the Southern Hemisphere

Source: nineplanets.org

The current moon phase for January 13th, 2025 is the Full Moon phase.

On this day, the moon is 12.75 days old and 98.22% illuminated with a tilt of 152.59°. The approximate distance from Earth to the moon is 377,214.25 km and the moon sign is Cancer.

The Moon phase for January 13th, 2025 is the Full Moon phase. In this phase, the moon is 100% illuminated when seen from Earth (hence the name Full Moon).

The Full Moon happens when the moon is on the opposite side of the Earth from the Sun. The sunlight fully illuminated the moon, and this is what we call being “full”. The moon will be visible throughout the night sky as it rises at sunset in the east, transits the meridian at midnight, before setting at sunrise in the west.

The specific point at which the Full Moon occurs can be measured down to a fraction of a second. The time that passes between full moons is called the Synodic month and is 29.530587981 days long.

Fun fact: lunar eclipses can only happen within a few days of the Full Moon, but they don’t happen for every Full Moon because the moon’s orbit has a 5.1° tilt around the Earth compared to Earth’s orbit around the Sun. Only when the intersection of these two orbits is pointing towards the centre of the Moon do we get a lunar eclipse.

Phase: Full Moon

Moon age: 12.75 days

Moon illumination: 98.22%
