Source: nineplanets.org

The current moon phase for January 20th, 2025 is the Waning Gibbous phase.

On this day, the moon is 19.95 days old and 67.9% illuminated with a tilt of -25.445°. The approximate distance from Earth to the moon is 403,265.24 km and the moon sign is Libra.

The Moon phase for January 20th, 2025 is a Waning Gibbous phase. This is the first phase after the Full Moon where the illumination of the moon decreases each day until it reaches 50% (the Last Quarter phase).

The waning (shrinking) gibbous Moon will rise after sunset in the east, transit the meridian after midnight, before setting after sunrise in the west.

During this phase, the illumination of the moon will go down from 99.% to 50.1%. Technically, the phase starts as soon as the Full Moon has passed, but it can be difficult to calculate and differentiate the first stage of a Waning Gibbous Moon from a Full Moon when 98-99% of the Moon’s surface is illuminated.

Fun fact: the word Gibbous was first used in the 14th century and comes from the latin word gibbosus which means humpbacked.

Welcome to WOTC! A Thought for Today

We all possess magick in our hearts and spirits. Those of us who choose to learn who we are at our core walk a spiritual path closer to Mother Earth/Gaia.

I am moving slowly this morning and taking a few more breaks so I am not sitting as long with my knee bent. All the regular daily posts will get up hopefully this morning. We will be snuggly at home until at least Tuesday because of – 0F wind chill temperatures. Our furnace is being funny and we don’t want to take the chance of us not being home the furnace quitting with the possibility of lots of things going wrong especially Crystal or Merlin getting sick. Merlin just finished a round of antibiotics for an upper respiratory infection with him almost 13 years old we are watching his health more closely than when he was younger. Crystal wants to stay outside to play even with these brrrr temps but of course, we don’t let her. Please watch how long your companion is out in the winter as their paws can get frostbite as well as their ears and nose.

May your and your family’s lives be filled with love, happiness, laughter, joy, and positive things!

Blessed be.

May sorrow be unknown, and any negativity be minimal. May the wind always be at your back.

Being a Capricorn born on January 18th, you are simple and driven by ambitions you have had since you were little. Life is more than a journey for you.

Persistence is something you have and others appreciate in you, similarly, you are quick to seize details. At times you may find it hard to decide, but when you do, most commitments are for life. Get ready for an exceptional astrological perspective below.

 The zodiac sign for January 18 is Capricorn.

 Astrological symbol: Goat. This is the symbol of the Capricorn zodiac for people born December 22 – January 19. It is representative for the simplicity and ambition in the nature of these stubborn but caring natives.

 The Capricorn Constellation is located between Sagittarius to the West and Aquarius to the East and has delta Capricorni as the brightest star. It is spread on an area of 414 sq degrees and its visible latitudes are +60° to -90°.

 The Goat is named in Latin as Capricorn, in Spanish as Capricornio while the French name it Capricorne.

 Opposite sign: Cancer. This means that this sign and Capricorn are a straight line across each other on the zodiac wheel and can create an opposition aspect. This suggests honesty and sympathy as well as an interesting cooperation between the two sun signs.

 Modality: Cardinal. This is an indicator of the helpful nature of those born on January 18 and their nurturing sense and bravery in taking life as it is.

 Ruling house: The tenth house. This is a space of paternity and virility. It suggests the willful and fertile male figure who aims high. It is often related with the search of a career and all our professional roles in life.

 Ruling body: Saturn. This connection seems to suggest knowledge and loving sense. Saturn is one of the seven classical planets that are visible to the naked eye. This also shows a focus on fun.

 Element: Earth. This is an element that brings conformation and a sense of rational in the lives of those born on January 18. Earth associated to the other three elements models or heats up.

 Motto: “I utilize!”

People born on January 18 benefit from being driven, down to earth and disciplined. Just like a true Capricorn, they are romantic and dependable. They love to discover the concepts behind art and philosophy. They dislike being deceived or having to postpone their plans.

As a Capricorn with birthday January 18, you have a sharp mind, and your attention to detail is impeccable. You can solve most any problem.

Okay, so I am joking, but you get my drift. Your lifestyle is over-the-top and indeed, a bit different from most. The future of person who born on 18 January depends on your current lifestyle.

On the other hand, what your birthday says about you is that some Capricorns like to trim things down to the nitty-gritty. Some Capricorn sun sign people can be extremely creative when it comes to editing a previous convention or tradition to better their professional and personal state of affairs.

January born Capricorns have a way of getting rid of unnecessary layers that could slow them down. As a result of this, people can be critical of you. But, to see the forest, you may have to cut down some trees. This is the case with this Capricorn born on January 18.

They have nothing but your best interest at heart when they say you need to stop giving the wrong people the opportunity to hurt you warn the January 18 astrology predictions.

Most of the people you choose in love are not the kind looking to settle down. While a good time is important, so is stability. Take your time with this. There is no shame in a good old fashion courtship. I know you do not like to be criticized or judged, so I am the one to tell you this because your friends cannot. Listen to your birthday love compatibility and take the right steps.

They do not want to jeopardize your friendships. Oh and one more thing, fraternizing with people in your professional circle, is a no-no. It is not good for business. Consider that next time Capricorn before making moves on the new hire.

January 18 personality plan things. Perhaps, there is a job there. Planners make a decent living. Have you ever thought of entertainment as a profession? You are funny! Capricorn, you could be anything your heart desires. It seems like you are always in the right position to catch all the latest news on who’s who and the most popular spots for connections

To sum it up Capricorn, if today is your birthday, you are suave but underneath all this coolness can be a mess. You, with your mood swings and emotional breakdowns, can be a bit disturbing depending on the position of the Moon. People born on January 18 are quite hard on themselves, and you could benefit from lowering your prudent standards, just a tab bit.

Those kids on the bus were having fun when they mooned you so relax and take it in the manner in which it was done. It was all in fun! Goats are active creatures. January 18 Capricorn birthday people have a real down to earth approach to life

Moon Alert

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

The Stars Rate Your Day

5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult

Aries (March 21-April 19)

** This might be a challenging day at work you. Very likely, authority figures, the government or some kind of behind-the-scenes energy will block what you want to do. Ironically, a boss (or a parent) might be sympathetic. (That’s small but it’s something.)

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

** Children might be an increased responsibility today. Likewise, plans related to vacations, social outings, the arts or the entertainment world and even the hospitality industry might be stifled. No wonder you have strong feelings to escape. “I’m outta here!”

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

*** Today you might want to have some quiet time at home; however, to your chagrin, you might be challenged by parents, authority figures or others who don’t agree with your plans. Don’t get caught up in a power struggle with anyone. Sidestep this with grace if you can. (Use your clever words.)

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

*** This is a mildly accident-prone day for you, so pay attention to everything you say and do. Meanwhile, you might feel a bit worried today because no matter what you try to do, you’re challenged by authorities or people who tell you that you can’t do something. This can be discouraging.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

** This is a poor day for important financial discussions because very likely, if you challenge someone today their response will be, “Talk to the hand.” Poor day to deal with banks. Poor day to ask for a loan or a mortgage. Even shopping is not ideal.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

*** In one way, this is a positive day for you because the Moon is in your sign, which gives you a small advantage over others. Nevertheless, discussions with partners, close friends and even members of the general public will not flow easily. Someone might block your plans. “Whaat?”

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

** Do not expect things to go your way today. Even if you keep a low profile, whatever you try to do, even in small ways, will be blocked by rules, regulations, authority figures or even the restrictions of health issues. Therefore, don’t push the river. Take it easy.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

** Keep things light when talking to friends as well as members of groups and organizations today. This is not the day to get on your soapbox and espouse your views. Au contraire! Others, especially younger people, might not agree and they’re vocal about it. Take it easy.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

** Responsibilities with home, family and parents cannot be ignored today, as you will soon find if you try to press on with other matters related to your outer world. Therefore, face your responsibilities and deal with them as well as you can. Just do it.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

*** Avoid controversial discussions, which might soon mushroom into arguments today. Likewise, be careful dealing with issues at colleges and universities as well as making travel plans because your efforts will be blocked by someone. Knowing this ahead of time, pull back.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

** Avoid money squabbles or disputes about shared property or possessions because they could become nasty and petty today. You don’t need this. In fact, you want some peace and quiet right now. You don’t need headaches with others who are telling you what you cannot do. You’re an independent soul!

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

*** Be as diplomatic and accommodating as you can be today to get along with others because even then, it will be difficult. Someone you know, perhaps a partner, spouse or close friend, might raise objections to whatever you want to do. Or they might accuse you of doing this? Bummer.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor Jim Carrey (1962) shares your birthday today. You are confident, tenacious and decisive. You have a strong sense of purpose and drive. You’re also a team player. This is the last year of a nine-year cycle, which is why it is time to take inventory of your life and let go of what is no longer relevant

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Some minor debt won’t really let you sleep or live for that matter today and you will do whatever it takes to sort it as soon as possible.

This might involve leaving from work earlier and getting into all kinds of other troubles because of postponed work. But when you set out a particular priority for yourself there is absolutely nothing to stop you.

Check every day your Aries Daily Horoscope.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

A revealing day in terms of personal desires and maybe you will be able to understand why you behaved a particular way at some point.

However, it is up to you if you want to share your discovery with anyone, especially if you might find it a bit too private. Another interpretation of this would be that you are not very comfortable with this yourself.

Check every day your Taurus Daily Horoscope.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

If you really want to obtain something from one of your family members you might have been in conflict lately or with whom you still are, maybe you should use kind words.

And as unlikely as this seems it will actually be best than any other strategy, at least you’ll take them by surprise. And you do love leaving people with their mouths open.

Check every day your Gemini Daily Horoscope.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Your friendships should count more on honesty rather than on what the other person can do for you and you are kind of failing at this.

And it seems that this Friday this will be more than obvious and you might have explaining to do in regards to this selfishness of yours. Some other things will go smoothly and no real worries are on you.

Check every day your Cancer Daily Horoscope.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You are doing whatever you can to re-edit a previous success at work, even trying to manipulate things a bit in your favor but it seems that things are not like this anymore.

You will find it a lot more difficult to play with things and eventually you might have to give that up entirely. This is a good day to spend outdoors and reconnect with your spiritual side.

Check every day your Leo Daily Horoscope.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

It seems that this Friday you will have to deal with several activities at the same time and your energy levels are going to drop early on.

Due to the fact that there might be some deadlines involved as well you will probably be forced to continue beyond your capabilities and this will surely take out only what’s worst out of you.

Check every day your Virgo Daily Horoscope.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

An exciting Friday for those natives with actual plans but not too shabby of a day either for those too busy to actually make plans.

Once we sorted the entertainment area we should focus on work where things aren’t as easy and deadlines are exactly outside the corner. Maybe it wouldn’t be wise to postpone anything.

Check every day your Libra Daily Horoscope.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You are highly enthusiastic and seem to look at everything through pink lenses. While it isn’t condemnable to enjoy yourself, if those close to you are not necessarily in the same good mood, maybe you should temper yourself while you’re around them.

This is because the only thing that can cloud your day this Friday is someone else pointing out that you are not very sensible.

Check every day your Scorpio Daily Horoscope.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You seem to put a lot of passion and effort into today’s tasks, no matter how mundane they are. Perhaps your optimism is unrelated to work but you sure can make things appear more agreeable and make the best out of any situation.

Other than this, you might find this Friday quite practical if you go for a round of shopping.

Check every day your Sagittarius Daily Horoscope.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Group work may not be your forte but this Friday you will be rocking it. You are still very impulsive and would still jump to alleviate everyone’s share but it seems that you are also kind of lazy and disinterested and this combination will help you get going.

At the same time, you might come up with some genius solutions and be willing to delegate their usage to someone else.

Check every day your Capricorn Daily Horoscope.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

The current disposition is transforming you into an incredibly good listener and you are willing to help others with no strings attached.

Of course some things are too good to be true and it seems that your altruism will only expand to people you know and you are still very selfish when it comes to complete strangers and this is not to change any time soon.

Check every day your Aquarius Daily Horoscope.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Whether you want it or not you will have to count on someone else with some practical matters, perhaps some documents to send somewhere or similar.

And you will stress out the whole time and beyond the point you receive confirmation just because this is how you are. On the other hand, you might find an useful ally in the person of a friend from work.

Moon Alert

Avoid shopping or important decisions after 11 PM EST today (8 PM PST). The Full Moon in Cancer peaks at 5:27 PM EST (2:27 PM PST).

The Stars Rate Your Day

5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult

Aries (March 21-April 19)

** Today you’ll feel pulled between the demands of home and family versus the demands of your external world or career. With this Full Moon, you can’t ignore your public reputation. Nevertheless, you have a strong focus on home and family today. Tough call.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

*** Pay attention to everything you say and do because this is an accident-prone day for you. Obviously, an accident doesn’t have to happen but you could be distracted, irritated or emotionally upset because of the Full Moon energy. Relax.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

*** Financial issues might come to a head on this Full Moon day. You might encounter disputes about ownership. You will almost certainly have disputes about differing values, which are difficult to deal with because people identify with their values. You might have to agree to disagree.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

** Today the Full Moon is in your sign; and the Moon is your ruler. You will feel some emotional tension dealing with others, especially partners and close friends. Old angers and frustrations might be bubbling beneath the surface, which could make you quick to lash out. Don’t do it. Life is short – and fat.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

*** Today’s Full Moon might create stressful health issues for you. It will certainly promote conflicts or disagreements with work colleagues, including customers and clients. Because patience is the antidote to anger, you are best served by counting to three or taking a deep breath before you reply to anyone.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

*** Parents must be extra vigilant because today is an accident-prone day for your kids. Keep an eye on them. Meanwhile the energy of today’s Full Moon might create stress in romantic relationships. Even social situations might trigger short tempers. Avoid sports fights.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

** You are a people pleaser and you like to keep the peace. Today will be challenging because for starters, you are high viz. People notice you more than usual. Furthermore, conflict with bosses, parents and authority figures might arise because of today’s Full Moon energy.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

*** This is a mildly accident-prone day for you so be mindful and pay attention to whatever you say and do. Definitely, avoid controversy and arguments about politics, religion or race because these will quickly get out of hand. Actually, it’s a nice day to socialize! Enjoy the arts and playful times with kids.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

** This is a testy day for financial discussions because today’s Full Moon might put you at loggerheads with someone, especially about shared property, taxes and debt. Therefore, tread lightly. Instead, entertain or redecorate where you live. Postpone financial plans for a day or two.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

** Today the Full Moon is in your sign, which will create tension between you and partners and close friends. Be aware of this. However, you can handle this with grace because fair Venus is in your House of Communications sweetening your words.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

** Be careful. In many ways, you have been reassessing your job or issues related to your work and even your health. This is a touchy subject for you. That’s why today, when the Full Moon creates even further stress in these areas – you might be thin-skinned. Don’t overreact.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

*** Be vigilant today because this is an accident-prone day for your kids. Likewise, arguments or tension between romantic partners or casual friends might also occur. However, with fair Venus in your sign, you will be charming and diplomatic with everyone. (Saved!)

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actress Julia Louis Dreyfus (1961) shares your birthday today. You are focused, determined and keen to better yourself. You embrace humanitarian causes and social reform. Whatever you do, you give it your all. This is a year of exciting change and increased personal freedom. You might travel more to expand your horizons. You will meet new friends.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

You will finally get at least half of solution for something that has been troubling you for a while. The interesting part comes in when the other half is nowhere to be found and you are not really in the best place to focus on your own.

You will find that the work day is quite free so you should try and meet up with people willing to help you.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You are playing Cupid this Monday and not really going to give up until you see your plan to completion. And the most complicated part is that you are doing this at work, with people you don’t really know that well.

But you are in for some fun and risk and no one can really stop you. If everything goes according to plan you will rejoice the whole week, this is how high the stakes are.

You are trying to hide just as vulnerable you are in front of a particular person at work but the more you are trying, the weirder you appear in front of everyone.

So maybe just take another check at your own qualities and stop comparing yourself with this person and start behaving the way you do with everyone. Although it might seem complicated, with a bit of focus you’ll move past this.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Your interaction with small children is benefited today and you are also going towards a more spiritual side.

Therefore you will take everything with a lot of peace this Monday and not feel stressed by anything in particular. However, this will surely annoy your fast paced friends who you will hear from in quite an aggressive manner.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Your mind is wondering and you surely would want to be on a beach somewhere instead of that square office.

But you know that most natives are stuck in the same situation as you and only some lucky few are enjoying themselves at the moment. This should give you a push towards coming back with your feet on the ground.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You are inclined to do whatever it takes to impress people you are entering in contact with today even though you might never see them.

This means you will behave like in slow motion today, choosing your steps carefully. But the downside of this, beside the obvious superficiality is that you will find this day unusually tiresome and like it never ends.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

A new week, a different habit for you and this time you seem to focus your attention on attracting everyone’s looks.

Perhaps you will spend half of the day in the mirror just arranging that last detail or you are going to adopt some kind of controversial behavior just to ensure you have all eyes on you. And there isn’t a particular reason why you are doing this but I’d go with vanity.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

This Monday is an excellent time to discover something you are very good at but always been reluctant or scared of doing.

It might be something that has to do with work, maybe taking just one extra responsibility or maybe doing something at home, coming out of a moment of selflessness and empathy with your partner.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

An important day for your career with the stars all rooting for you in this direction. So if you have any presentations going on, an important interview or similar activities where you need to be top notch, than be sure that you have a grain of luck with you.

However, the rest still has to come from you so don’t take it for granted.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Money is the most important thing for you today and you might find yourself pursuing them in an aggressive manner.

Maybe taking more shifts at work or planning on getting an extra job or doing something freelance. While you are highly motivated now, you might want to think about how you are going to feel about all this work later on and if it’s not too much.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You are going to tolerate some practices and gestures, some you wouldn’t otherwise, just because they are coming from a particular person and in case you are too obvious with this, you will raise some eyebrows.

If this impartiality of yours happens at work then you are in for extra trouble. You should try and separate emotions from work decisions.

Check every day your Aquarius Daily Horoscope.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

An extra push will do you just perfect this beginning of the week even though the push might come with some strings attached and might stress you out entirely.

But if you don’t get through this storm you will take things a lot easier than you should and will not have learned anything. So do embrace what’s coming and just hope for the best.

Spell for Tuesday – Powerful Egg Shell Protection

(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY SPELLS POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY)

Powerful Egg Shell Protection Spell

(SIDE NOTE from Lady Carla Beltane: To clean eggshells of that film that stays after you use the egg for whatever run the eggshell under as hot of water that is comfortable for you while gently moving a finger around the inside the shell. Then place the eggshells open side up into an empty egg carton to dry thoroughly. After they are thoroughly dry, I place them on my pastry sheet and use a rolling pin to crush them.)

Waste not want not applies to more than just meals! We believe that all ingredients and, what some would call trash, contain powerful symbolic magic.

And today, we’re going to harness the symbolism of the strong, powerful egg shell in our newest protection spell.

This spell leverages the potent symbolism of the egg, representing life, potential, and protection. As always, while spell ingredients provide energy to propel our manifestation, the power lies within your intention, the faith you have in the process, and the energy you infuse into it.

As you cast this spell, focus on the symbolism of the egg as a container of life and potential, as well as its shell as a protective barrier.

Egg Shell Protection Spell

Prep Time1minute 
Spell Time10minutes 
Total Time11minutes 

Materials

White Candles

Bowl

Salt

Permanent Marker optional

Whole Pasteurized Egg Shell

Instructions

Cleanse: Begin by creating a safe and sacred space. If desired, cleanse the space with smoke from sage or your favorite cleansing herbs. Light the white candles and place them on your altar or sacred space.
Consecrate: If you wish, you can use the marker to draw symbols on the egg that are meaningful to you and represent protection. These could be runes, sigils, or other symbols associated with protection in your personal practice.
Visualize: Hold the egg in your hands. Close your eyes and visualize yourself or what you want to be protected is living inside of the eggshell. Imagine that the eggshell is keeping you safe from negative energies or influences that may be affecting you.

Protect: Pour salt into the bowl, and place the egg int the center. As you do this, recite the following incantation (or one of your own creation):

“Shell of life, pure and round, Ward off harm, guard my ground. By the power of earth and sea, As I will it, so mote it be.”

Manifest: Leave the egg within the salt circle on your altar or sacred space for as long as you feel is necessary. Some people might choose to leave it overnight, while others might choose to leave it for several days.
Close: End the ritual by closing your sacred space in your chosen manner. You might choose to do this by extinguishing your candles, thanking any spirits or deities you invoked, or simply stating your intention to close the space.
Clean Up: Once you feel the spell is complete, take the egg outside and return it to the earth. You can do this by burying it in the ground or breaking it and scattering it in a garden or forest. As you do so, thank the egg and release any negative energies it has absorbed.

The Moon will be visible throughout the night sky rising at sunset in the east and setting with the sunrise the next morning in the west. During a Full Moon the moon is 100% illuminated as seen from Earth and is on the opposite side of the Earth from the Sun. The point at which a Full Moon occurs can be measured down to a fraction of a second. The time it takes between full moons is known as a Synodic month and is 29.530587981 days long. Keep track of all the Full Moons throughout the year on the Full Moon Calendar >

Today’s Full Moon Phase

The Full Moon on January 13 has an illumination of 100%. 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 13 the Moon is 14.53 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 20.66° 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.

14 January 2025 Current Moon Phase for the Southern Hemisphere

Source: nineplanets.org

The current moon phase for January 14th, 2025 is the Waxing Gibbous phase.

On this day, the moon is 13.76 days old and 99.94% illuminated with a tilt of 201.783°. The approximate distance from Earth to the moon is 380,729.27 km and the moon sign is Cancer.

The Moon phase for January 14th, 2025 is a Waxing Gibbous phase. This is the phase where the moon is more than 50% illuminated but has not yet reached 100% illumination (which would be a Full Moon).

In the Northern Hemisphere, the right side will be illuminated, and in the Southern hemisphere it’ll be the left side that is illuminated.

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 word Gibbous was first used in the 14th century and comes from the latin word gibbosus which means humpbacked.

Being a Capricorn born on January 12th, you love portraying yourself as an ambitious person with important goals and this is not an exaggeration. Leading a busy life is what satisfies you and everyone is curious from where you have so much energy.

You are caring and attentive with your family and often support them when they least expect you, because you love jumping to the rescue of anyone. Prepare to read an outstanding personality report below.

 The zodiac sign for January 12 is Capricorn.

 Astrological symbol: Goat. The sign of the Goat influences people born between December 22 and January 19, when in tropical astrology the Sun is considered to be in Capricorn. It refers to the stubbornness but also the simplicity and responsibility of these natives.

 The Capricorn Constellation with visible latitudes between +60° to -90° and the brightest star delta Capricorni, is one of the twelve zodiac constellations. It is spread on an area of 414 sq degrees between Sagittarius to the West and Aquarius to the East.

 The name Capricorn comes from the Latin name for Horned Goat. This is the most common used name to define the zodiac sign for January 12 zodiac sign, however in Greek they call it Aegokeros and in Spanish Capricornio.

 Opposite sign: Cancer. This is the sign directly across the zodiac circle from the Capricorn zodiac sign. It suggests acceptance and seriousness and these two are considered to make great partnerships.

 Modality: Cardinal. The quality proposes the easygoing nature of those born on January 12 and their protection and impulsiveness in regard to most life situation.

 Ruling house: The tenth house. This placement suggests the paternity and virility of the willful male figure with high goals and ambitions just as Capricorns want to portray themselves.

 Ruling body: Saturn. This celestial planet symbolizes pure force and caution. Saturn is consistent with Cronus, the god of agriculture in Greek mythology. Saturn is also suggestive for the discipline component of these personalities.

 Element: Earth. This element symbolizes organization and practicality and is considered to rule over confident and polite people under the January 12 zodiac sign. Earth also gets new meanings in association with the other elements, modeling things with water and fire and incorporating air.

 Lucky day: Saturday. This is a day ruled by Saturn, therefore symbolizes energy and supremacy and identifies best with the Capricorn natives who are structured .

 Lucky numbers: 2, 6, 11, 18, 23.

 Motto: “I utilize!”

 People born on January 12 can be defined as down to earth, prudent and natural leaders. Just like a true Capricorn they are caring and attentive. They enjoy traveling and they love the moments when their merits are being recognized and rewarded. They hate having to deal with ignorance or having to postpone their plans. The best setting for those born under this sign is a peaceful and far away spot where they can stop for a moment and rediscover themselves.

 Positive traits: These natives are relentless and very organized. They prefer to have everything around them in spot and instill their discipline into those dear to them as well, or at least they try. They are naturally helpful and even tend to plan others above their own needs. They have a forceful sense of justice and often prefer to take the long and rough path than to overlook their principles.

 Negative traits: These natives need to learn to take more risks, measure better their cautious attitude and enjoy what live has to offer them better. They are often too suspicious of even the smallest things to let themselves enjoy them. They are hasty and erratic and seem to get blocked whenever some sort of change occurs or when they are faced with tight deadlines and outside pressure.

This single native is focused on the other aspects of life and is never in a rush to commit if he/she doesn’t feel it’s right.

 They are either trying to win their lover’s heart while complaining about their unrequited love or they play hard to get. However they are an attractive and full of energy lover although they are prone to falling in and out of love quickly. A creative, freedom lover, once decided to settle will invest all their attention in their family and they will probably have brilliant children. Some struggle, trial and error will govern parts of their love life but in the end everything will be worth it. They are most compatible with those born on the 6th, 9th, 15th, 18th, 24th and 27th.

 January 12 Zodiac people are most attracted to the other earth signs: Taurus and Virgo as they tend to share the same vision of life. In love, Capricorn is permanently seeking for an attractive and sensible lover and the best to offer them this is the native born under Cancer. The lover in Capricorn is said to be least compatible with Sagittarius. As for the rest of partnerships between the other star signs and Capricorn, you know what they say, stars predispose but people dispose.

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!
