Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
**** A friend might surprise you today; or you might surprise them? Social outings, sports events and fun activities with kids might also have speed bumps or detours, which means you need to be light on your feet and ready to jump in either direction. An unexpected invitation might come your way. Who knows?
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

**** Parents should be vigilant because this is an accident-prone day for your kids. Meanwhile, social plans might suddenly change. Ditto for travel plans. You might be introduced to new faces, especially younger people. Keep an open mind because novel, original ideas are flying through the air!
If Your Birthday Is Today
Actor Randolph Scott (1898-1987) shares your birthday today. You are a grounded, yet unconventional, original thinker. You are magnetic; and others admire you. This is a year of service for you, perhaps service to family. Because you are a resource for others, take care of yourself. Might this be the time for a makeover?
Aries (March 21-April 19)
This Thursday will probably teach you that some things cannot be forced and you need to let some things just be.
There isn’t like you are going to be stressed or anything, it’s just that the more flexible you are, the easier you will have it, both at work and at home. Those natives willing to keep an open mind are going to be the most benefited.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)
You need to let go of some of those worries in regard to your family if you want to actually breathe free this Thursday.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)
The extended astral context might ask for some time alone and although you might be feeling under the weather and know deep inside that you need to retreat, you won’t do it because you don’t want to risk your newly gained social place.
Maybe your worries are not actually based on truth facts or maybe you are right but it’s not worth risking your own health.
Check every day your Gemini Daily Horoscope.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Some kind of last minute change will probably turn your day upside down and will demand a lot more flexibility than you are accustomed to.
You are also way too naive in certain aspects of your life and people might find it especially easy during this period to take advantage of you. Try to assume no one has good intentions from the start.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
A social day for most natives, even those who haven’t been in a cheerful mood lately. Perhaps it’s the weather at your place or perhaps you have actual reasons to rejoice.
In any case, the long Thursday won’t seem as long, especially when in the right company and the time will probably fly by as this astral context promises.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
This Thursday is going to bring complex matters of money to your attention and you will have a few things to discuss upon.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
A lot of trouble for nothing actually is going to be the motto of this Thursday for you if you don’t pay enough attention to where you put your things and other similar activities.
At the same time you shouldn’t even dare to dream about making any extra money or such from activities beyond your day to day job because this is not the case.
Check every day your Sagittarius Daily Horoscope.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
You are either misguided or completely out of track with some choices today and it might take you a while to realize it, some natives might not even get a grip with reality until it’s too late.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
You might want to think twice before you commit to any real work this Thursday as you schedule seems already very busy.

Spell for Thursday – Protection Spells

Protection Spells
Protection spells are intended to prevent, protect, and repel danger. Many find this category confusing so lets be very clear. There is no magic spell that functions exactly like an around response from a personal security guard one might hire for service. Locking your door may prevent a human thief. However, certain danger can only be repelled by magical methods. These dangers include:
*Malicious spells, hexes, jinxes, magic “tricks” or negative enchantment cast deliberately against one person by another.
*The evil eye
*Assorted spiritual danger deriving from a vast variety of spiritual sources. These may be caused deliberately or inadvertently.
Although these dangers derive from magical and spiritual roots, they may manifest in very physical ways, as illness, accidents, and general disaster. However, because there derivation is at least partly magical, prevention and remedies must also be at least partly magical.
Tips for successfully casting Protection spells
* Number 5: The number of fingers on each hand is the number most associated with magical protection, as are the magic numbers Seven and Nine.
*Color: Red, black, and blue are the colours most associated with magical protection.
(Note Protection is different from Reversing)

24 Powerful Crystals For Positive Energy – The “How To” Guide
Positivity is not something that we are born with. It is actually a state of mind that requires practice. By training your mind all over again to be positive, which is pre-wired to think negatively and expect the worse, you can respond optimistically to any kind of situation.
The brain, however, tends to react more quickly to bad and negative news than good ones. Thus, it is no wonder you tend to experience pessimism, worry, and self-doubting. It becomes a familiar feeling and becomes contagious.
So, how can you change this?
Well, healing crystals can help encourage emotions of hope, joy, love, and gratitude while also shielding you from all kinds of negative energy.
By stimulating a positive and joyful vibration within your own energy fields, the best crystals for positive energy can help strengthen your intention to be optimistic and positive. So, if you wish to boost your fluctuating moods, enjoy being in the present moment, or your ambition with confidence and self-esteem, then crystals can be a powerful ally.

Moon Phase
The Moon’s current phase for today and tonight is a Waning Crescent phase. This phase is best viewed just before the sunrise in the western sky. In this phase the Moon’s illumination is growing smaller each day until the New Moon. During this part of the Moon cycle, the Moon is getting closer to the Sun as viewed from Earth and the night side of the Moon is facing the Earth with only a small edge of the Moon being illuminated. It can also be a great time to see the features of the Moon’s surface. Along the edge where the illuminated portion meets the dark side, the craters and mountains cast long shadows making them easier to observe with a telescope or binoculars.

Today’s Waning Crescent Phase
The Waning Crescent on January 23 has an illumination of 33%. 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 23 the Moon is 23.81 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: ♏ Scorpio
The current zodiac moon sign is Scorpio, positioned at 19.37° within the sign. The Moon entered Scorpio on Jan 21, 5:38 PM and will shift into Sagittarius on Jan 24, 5:05 AM.

24 January 2025 Current Moon Phase for the Southern Hemisphere
Source: nineplanets.org
The current moon phase for January 24th, 2025 is the Waning Crescent phase.
On this day, the moon is 24.07 days old and 29.45% illuminated with a tilt of -40.309°. The approximate distance from Earth to the moon is 399,054.36 km and the moon sign is Scorpio.
The Moon phase for January 24th, 2025 is a Waning Crescent phase. This is the phase where the moon is less than 50% illuminated but has not yet reached 0% illumination (which would be a New Moon).
In this part of the moon cycle, it is getting closer and closer to the Sun as viewed from Earth and the night side of the Moon is facing earth with a decreasingly thin crescent being illuminated.
The waning (shrinking) crescement Moon will rise at around midnight, transit the meridian after sunrise, before setting after noon. This phase is best viewed 1-2 hours before sunrise and is a great time to see the features of the Moon’s surface. Along the illuminated crescent you can see the craters and mountains of the moon casting long shadows.
The Waxing Gibbous phase, like all moon phases, will last for just over 7 days. The actual length will vary because of the elliptical shaped orbit of the moon. During this Waxing Gibbous phase the moon will rise in the east in the mid- to late-afternoon and will be high in the eastern sky at sunset.
Assuming it’s a clear night, the Waxing Gibbous moon will then be visible through most of the night before setting just before sunrise.
Fun fact: the illuminated side of a waning crescent moon is always pointed eastwards, towards the sunrise.
