Moon Alert

There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today. The Moon is in Pisces.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

You might feel restless today because you’re unsure of something that’s going on behind the scenes. Perhaps you have that feeling that you’re waiting for the other shoe to drop? Relax. Enjoy schmoozing with others because people are happy to see you.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Today you have to stay on your toes because for starters, a friend might surprise you. Or you might meet someone who is unusual or different, but definitely interesting. Possibly, news from a group will catch you off guard. They might say or do something that you can’t endorse or don’t agree with. Stay tuned!

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Pay attention to everything you say and do today because someone in a position of authority – boss, parent, teacher or the police – might say or do something that catches you off guard. Do you need to do any damage control? Tread carefully.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Travel plans might suddenly change today or be delayed or cancelled. Possibly, you have to travel when you did not expect to do so? News in the media might surprise you. Double check college and university schedules because something unpredictable will occur.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Make friends with your bank account today to make sure you know what’s happening because something unexpected could impact a bank account or something to do with shared property or how you are involved with the wealth and resources of someone else, including an inheritance.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Go gently today because a partner or close friend will almost certainly do or say something that surprises you. You might need to give yourself some time before you process how you feel about this. Definitely take time before you respond. Avoid a knee-jerk reaction.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Your work routine might be interrupted today. Therefore, be smart and give yourself extra time so that you have wiggle room to deal with the unexpected. This way you are better prepared for whatever happens, even if it comes out of left field. Surprising news about your health might also occur. Meanwhile, pet owners should be vigilant.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Parents should be aware of their kids today because this is a mildly accident-prone day for your kids. Meanwhile, social plans might change today. Stay light on your feet because you might want to accept a last-minute invitation? Or possibly, social plans are cancelled.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Your home routine will likely change today. Perhaps a small appliance might break down or a minor breakage could occur? Someone completely unexpected might knock at your door, catching you unawares. Get dressed. Stock the fridge so that you’re ready for anything.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Pay attention to everything you say and do today because this is a mildly accident-prone day for you. However, on the upside, you might have a sudden, brilliant idea that occurs you out of the blue. Zowie! This is because today you find it easy to think outside of the box.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Keep an eye on your money and possessions so that you can protect what you own against loss, theft or damage. Meanwhile, you might find money or you might lose money. It’s a tricky day, which means something might impact your assets, which is why you must be on the alert.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Do not be hasty and jump to conclusions today, which might happen because you feel independent and rebellious! You have a strong need to be free and do exactly what you want. Nevertheless, think before you act. Don’t do anything you will later regret.

If Your Birthday Is Today

You might deepen a bond with someone older or even someone in a position of authority in a group to which you belong. Or perhaps this older, more experienced person will give you advice today? Someone will say or so something you don’t expect.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Today you choose to present an attractive but conservative image to the world. You want respect. You want to look right. You certainly don’t want to be flamboyant. Because you have always valued quality, you will know how to strike the right balance. (A boss might surprise.)

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You might enjoy the study of history today or take a serious interest in the news. You will also enjoy serious discussions with people who are older or more experienced because you do want to understand more of the world and put things in context.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Someone might give you a practical gift today or do a favour for you that is helpful and meaningful. If you’re dealing with a bank or a financial institution, people will respect your request, as long as it is reasonable. Nevertheless, financial matters might surprise you. Stay tuned.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Today it’s not easy to express your affection for others; nevertheless, the affection is still there. Saturn is lined up with Venus, which will temper your impulses to express yourself. Some of you might have to say goodbye to someone at this time. Today is definitely a time of sober reflection and quiet feelings.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Today you will work with diligence, especially because you want to earn the favour of someone in authority. Coworkers might think you are a bit distant, but the truth is you don’t feel like indulging in your feelings in a public way. Your work routine will be interrupted.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Romantic relationships will be serious today. Nevertheless, affection will be there. Some of you might have to say goodbye to a loved one. Others might feel a bit lonesome or cut off from someone. A relationship that begins now will be long-lived and loyal. Parents: please watch your kids.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

A discussion with an older family member will be practical and sober today. Nevertheless, you might cover important ground and be happy with the results. You might also discuss issues that need to be addressed about home expenses or repairs.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

When relating to others today, you might be a bit reserved. Someone might think you are cool or standoffish. Actually, you do feel a bit removed, which makes you reluctant to express your feelings. Guard against accidents.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Financial decisions today will be conservative but reliable. You won’t take a chance because you want a sure thing. If shopping, you will look for ways to save money and will probably prefer buying practical, long-lasting items. Protect your money and possessions today. Be alert.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Today fair Venus is lined up with Saturn in your sign, which makes you emotionally conservative and reserved. You will be restrained in expressing affection for others, even though you still feel this affection. You might also have to say goodbye to a loved one. Don’t do anything you regret later.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

It’s possible today that you feel a bit lonesome or cut off from others. There seems to be a gap you find difficult to bridge. Fortunately, this is a short-lived influence so don’t worry about it. Respect the advice of anyone older or more experienced than you because it will probably be practical and wise.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actress Diane Lane (1965) shares your birthday today. You are loving, caring and kind. You stand up for your beliefs. You like to participate in charitable activities. This is a fun-loving, playful year! Loosen up! Enjoy socializing with others because this year you have a great zest for life! Old friends may reappear once again.

From MoonGiant.com

Moon Phase for today: Jan 16, 2023

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.

Visit the January 2023 Moon Phases Calendar to see all the daily moon phase for this month.

Moon Alert

There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today. The Moon is in Sagittarius.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Parents and authority figures will be pretty intense today. Therefore, this is not the day to decide to challenge them. (Ya think?) If you do, you will encounter more than you bargained for. Step aside. “A lot of men didn’t and a lot of men died.”

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

This is a poor day for arguments and disputes about politics, religion and racial issues; nevertheless, you will probably be drawn into them! Try to avoid this if you can because people will be intense and convinced that they’re right and that you will be better off if you agree with them. Oy!

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Don’t get embroiled in discussions about shared property, inheritances or insurance disputes because you might have to contend with someone who is trying to exert unreasonable power over you. People are intense today and they want to convince others to agree with them.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Keep things light today. (If you can.) Avoid intense discussions with partners and close friends because people can be quite pushy today. In fact, avoid dangerous areas and any possibility of a criminal element. There are some “heavy” vibes out there today.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You might be determined to introduce reforms and improvements to your job today. However, don’t be pushy with others. (There are none so deaf as those who are wearing headphones.) Likewise, you might be super determined to improve your health today. Lighten up a bit.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

This is a terrible day for romantic arguments because they will get out of hand, possibly dangerously so. This is because people are intense and passionate today. They’re convinced they are right and others should agree with them. Come hell or high water!

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Avoid intense family discussions and arguments today because they won’t be pretty. Someone will try to push their views on others, and they might be overwhelming and aggressive. On the upside, you personally, might see ways to make improvements at home.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Discussions with others will be intense, even overwhelming today. You might have to contend with someone who is trying to exert power over you, which will force you to defend your own right to do things the way you want to do them. Oh yes, this is a day where people can be really pushy!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Avoid disputes about money and possessions today because they could be nasty. On the other hand, you might see useful ways to use money or something you own to make improvements somewhere or to help a third party. Hopefully, you can do this.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Be careful who you hang out with today. Avoid people who are aggressive, angry or potentially criminal. This is the kind of day that brings the worst out in people. In fact, everyone will be intense and a bit aggressive today so be discriminating. Be smart.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Avoid dangerous areas today or places where there are few people because this is the kind of day where the criminal element might be felt, even in a threatening way. Take the high road in every sense of the word. (Plus, the view is better.)

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Very likely, you will encounter a friend who seems to be coming on a bit strong today. Or perhaps, you will talk to someone in a group situation or a meeting. If so, this is a poor day to contradict or cross swords with someone because you might be surprised at their reaction. People are intense and purposeful today!

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actress and voice actor Jane Horrocks (1964) shares your birthday today. You have dignity in a practical, conservative way. However, in the next moment, you are wildly impulsive! You are generous, kindhearted and helpful. This year is the time for you to receive promotions, awards and acknowledgement for what you do You might assume a role of leadership.
