You’re trying to catch up on chores and your unrestrained optimism tempts you to take on more work than you can possibly finish. Unfortunately, your exuberance may be stymied if you reach too far. Instead of believing that you need to convert every intellectual breakthrough into tangible results, just allow your thoughts to rise and fall like the tides. Visualize yourself standing on the shores of awareness, but remember that you don’t have to capture every individual wave to make your mark.
You feel as if you’re waiting for something big to happen, yet it remains out of reach. You want to settle down, but your restlessness lingers until you accept that the resistance comes from your own attitude. Fortunately, when you begin to let go of control, the tension begins to disperse. Forget about adjusting specific details of your day; instead consider changing your long-term goals. Ironically, aiming your attention at the distant horizon has a positive impact on the present moment.
It’s challenging to follow through on anything that you start now, but you won’t likely be bothered about it for too long. You forget about what you were doing as soon as you get another idea and become immersed in the next activity. Your behavior might be upsetting to others today, yet you’ll probably continue scattering your energy until you can no longer keep up with everything. Ultimately, obtaining closure on unfinished business improves your reputation and raises your confidence.
Although you may wish things were simpler today, it feels as if you built your relationships on shifting sands. Thankfully, you might be able to change the energy faster than you thought possible by just telling the truth. Don’t hold back; even if your life is turned upside down for a while, it will settle back on the solid foundation that you seek. Have the courage to throw caution to the wind when it comes to following your heart.
You think you know what you want today, but the circumstances keep changing. Just as you become comfortable with one perspective, everything shifts and you need to readjust your expectations. Your willingness to be flexible could prevent a serious headache. Pay constant attention to the interpersonal dynamics and respond with your heart, not your head. Too much thinking now can get in the way of your best interests.
Your key planet Mercury is totally buzzing today, yet it may be too much for you to easily integrate, especially if you believe you already have the answers. The more rigid you are in your thinking, the louder the static is from electrical Uranus. But your readiness for change empowers you to explore the outer limits of your imagination. However, remember that you don’t have to push your thought process over the edge; your evolving perspective is all you need.
Your mind is operating at an incredibly high speed today, yet you’re wondering if you’re capable of keeping it up throughout the entire day. You might assume that things will eventually slow down, but other people keep introducing more complications. The hectic pace is fun at first, but might become more exhausting as the day goes on. Don’t try to do everything all at once. Extending your thinking into the future can help you remain calmer in the present.
You are possessed with self-confidence today, especially if someone you trust is expressing his or her approval of your performance. Although unpredictable Uranus can set off a strike of lighting that upsets your current routine, lucky Jupiter is standing by with cosmic assistance. As long as you’re willing to change your mind quickly, you should be able to make good use of the new information that comes to you now. Letting go of old assumptions clears the way for an exciting new direction.
Your key planet Jupiter encourages you to take on more than you would on another day. Fortunately, you’re able to accomplish so much today that others might think you are a superhero. However, there’s a price to pay for your action-packed day. So many events are interrelated now that one unexpected blip can bring down the entire house of cards. But even a crisis or two won’t stop you if you’re open to starting over again and shifting your course as needed.
You may think that everything is going to calm down, but you probably won’t have time to catch your breath for a couple of days. You’re being called back into action today and you must show up ready to work or you might lose valuable ground. Fortunately, mental Mercury’s shift into your ambitious sign indicates that you’re up for the task. Accept the current challenges with a fierce determination and get started immediately; you don’t have any time to waste.
Although your thoughts are tied to your future, today’s tenacious Cancer Moon reveals your desire to stay exactly where you are now. Unfortunately, you must let go of the past as electric Uranus zaps you out of your nostalgic fantasies. Overcome your fears and face the brave new world that’s right around the next corner. You might not be able to see what’s coming, but if you’re willing to take a calculated risk the rewards will follow.
You don’t have to convince anyone that your plan is the right one today; you only need to communicate with honesty and integrity. There are no correct or incorrect points of view now, just differing ones. Even if your opinions are unconventional, others will respect you for clearly stating exactly where you stand. Nevertheless, you will appear more sincere if you are also sensitive to other people’s positions. Having an open mind is the key to making the best choices.
Sunday, January 8, 11:30 pm PST, Monday, January 9, 2:30 am EST
The opposition of the Moon in sensitive Cancer to the Sun in dutiful Capricorn exposes two very different ways of seeking security. Subjective feelings of safety and personal comfort are needed with the Moon in maternal Cancer while hardening our defenses to face the challenges of the world is Capricorn’s task. Should we be tender or tough? Favorable aspects to the Sun and Moon from Mars in skillful Virgo empower us to find healthy ways to move between these two positions. The emotions kicked up by this lunation can show us how to nurture our inner needs while still standing strong in our public lives.
Inspirations are flying fast and furiously as the entire day builds up to the exact moment of the Full Moon that activates 19 degrees of Capricorn and Cancer (11:31PM PST). Early on, your talents as a superb problem-solver are enhanced – thanks to a mentally-exuberant, 72-degree rapport from Pallas to Jupiter (3:45AM PST). This could also be a good day to conduct strategy sessions, on a wide range of topics, with a trusted adviser or friend. You receive some excellent back-up support – mentally and spiritually – as Mercury forms a flowing trine to Jupiter in earth signs (10:06AM PST). However, the universe seems to love tossing a shocking surprise into the proceedings just to see how mortals on Earth behave. This shocking surprise arrives in the form of a Mercury-Uranus 90-degree sharp square from Capricorn to Aries (3:24PM PST). Jumping to conclusions without information or clear answers is taboo. If you have to drive or travel a far distance, use sound judgment. Communications can also suffer around the time-period when Mercury and Uranus play mischief-makers. Meanwhile, the rest of the evening pulls you toward the potential magic of the Full Moon (11:31PM PST). Send out your uplifting thoughts and prayers to humanity and the kingdoms of nature. Individual and group meditations are advised. Think more of your higher purpose while dwelling in your physical, emotional and mental bodies in this lifetime. Be a loving, compassionate ambassador of goodwill to people on the skids.

| First, light 2 black, white, or silver candles. Sit or stand in front of the mirror so only your face shows. Repeat the following: “Spirits of fortune, spirits of the inner eye, remove the veil of the future tonight! Spirits of the future, spirits of the divine, let visions show in this mirror’s sight!”Afterwards close your eyes and remove all thoughts from your head. Say, out loud, the inquiry for your scrying. (EX: How will tomorrow proceed?) When you feel cleared of distractions, slowly slit your eyes open to full view. Your inner eyes will now open, and the journey into the mirror begins. Remember that the inner eye sees inside the mind. Most people when scrying do not see the images appear with the physical eyes on the mirror’s surface but see within the mirror and in the mind’s eye. The mirror acts as a focal point, a gateway within. You may need to repeat this action many times. Symbols, images, and even moving scenes may play out for you. |
You may set your hopes on a lofty goal today because your enthusiasm can counteract a discouraging mood. Although your thinking may be inspired now, you’re still able to remain pragmatic about what you can actually accomplish. Later in the day you might wonder if you extended your reach too far. Don’t worry; you didn’t. It just going to take time for you to put it all together.
Although your self-confidence should pull you through a bout with uncertainty, your moods swing widely throughout the day. It’s not like you to put blind faith into a vision or a fantasy, but it really seems possible to reach for the stars today and grab one. Unfortunately, you may not be as ready for prime time as you think. Don’t be too hard on yourself when you realize how much more work is still in front of you. Thankfully, you can rely on your legendary patience now that you need it.
Your day begins as an intellectual curiosity; you wonder if your dreams are worth pursuing. But as the day wears on, you become more involved with your fantasy until you’re hooked by the heat of your desires. You may worry that you’ve lost your objectivity, but you bravely push into unknown territory as you’re tempted by your irrational feelings. Just remember to take it slowly; if you suddenly find yourself in emotional deep water you might be tempted to run back the safety of dry land.
As long as you can stay connected with your inner world, the path ahead should remain clear enough to let you continue on your way. It doesn’t matter if you run into an unexpected obstacle if you know that you’re doing the best you can do. But don’t convince yourself that you know what’s going to happen. Although your fate can shift several times, staying focused on your goal remains your best strategy.
You can appear to be quite an enigma today, especially if you consciously choose to keep your emotions hidden from others. Although you might feel thin-skinned, you’re probably more secure if your friends and co-workers can’t ask revealing questions because they don’t even know something is wrong. Ironically, someone’s eager support may annoy you as much as the resistance you face. Thankfully, your troubles fade once you become confident enough to reveal your vulnerability to someone you trust.
You are a fount of inspirational vision and strength for your friends today. If you are participating on a team effort or project, others in the group or your family will look up to you for guidance. But there’s no need to be authoritarian; just share your feelings as you respond to what’s happening around you. Your instincts will naturally reveal the most logical steps to take next.
Sharing your dreams with someone you trust enables you to stay emotionally balanced today. But this isn’t an open invitation to float away into Fantasyland. Instead, this is an opportunity express your vision of an ideal future realistic enough to be possible. However, your feelings may be harder to reveal later in the day if you didn’t begin the dialogue when you had the chance. Getting a previously hidden secret out into the open enables you to delve deeper toward the evening.
Your perspective grows more intense throughout the day as magnetic Venus forms a dynamic aspect with your key planet Pluto. If your intentions are altruistic, you can convince others to join you in your cause. Your ability to reframe an unpleasant situation allows you to make it attractive while still adhering to the truth. Take your time to explain exactly what you see now because you can widen people’s horizons and help them see possibilities they might have missed.
You might appear to be spacey to others at first, but once they hear you explain your idea further it begins to make more sense to them. Your imagination enables you to extend your thoughts well into the future, yet you’re able to back up your observations with sound thinking. Ultimately, this is a great day to share your dreams if you’re willing to keep one foot firmly planted on the ground.
Your communication is so clear today that you can hold your audience’s attention as you talk about the future. However, you’re also in touch with your imagination, so you’re not limited to a logical perspective. There’s no need to hold on to previous plans as current circumstances continue to change. Letting go of an old agenda helps to make more room for a newer one that is more meaningful to your current state of mind and more interesting to everyone else.
Your day may start off smoothly enough, but you could be brought right to the edge of your comfort zone before it’s over. Although you seem to have a healthy balance between reality and fantasy, you grow increasingly uncomfortable as an emotional drama sidetracks you from your dreaming and planning. Don’t fight against the currents pulling you out of your rational world; be patient and remain open to the process of transformation. You can learn a valuable lesson from this experience.
You may feel as if the pressures are easing so you can breathe easily again. You’re enthused by the intriguing possibilities you see everywhere you look. Happily, you believe your goals to be within reach. Nevertheless, you can also sense a growing disturbance in your peaceful energy field, and although you can’t recognize its source, this disharmony bothers you. Trusting your sixth sense is wise now, but don’t let your fear of the unknown overpower the comfort you know.

Cerebral Mercury in responsible Capricorn is excellent for rational thinking and clear communication. However, the speedy messenger’s aspects with boundless Jupiter and spontaneous Uranus today fill our heads with original ideas and spur provocative comments. Once this energy settles down we will quickly put our thoughts in order and find the intellectual discipline needed to concentrate on achieving our ambitions.

Keep in mind that this is day two in preparation for tomorrow night’s potent, enlightening Full Moon. It is also a day filled with several aspects, and the more aspects in any one 24-hour time-period, the more emotional shifts and mood changes normally are in the works. Early morning insights can be pervasive – thanks to Mercury forming supportive, 60-degree alliances with Saturn (12:14AM PST) and Neptune (7:17AM PST). The pragmatic and the exalted can merge with dazzling results. If emotional turbulence begins to nip at your heels, join the club as the Moon makes five alignments from 10:36AM PST to 2:59PM PST. Along the way, Gemini Moon becomes void at 11:53AM PST – with this limbo time-span lasting until 1:06PM PST when the Moon enters its natural abode of watery Cancer. Once the Moon enters Cancer, everything connected to home and family concerns are back in the limelight. Cooking, baking and cleaning campaigns are emphasized. Learning more about your ancestral tree and the value of your antiques and heirlooms can provide revelations. Some jarring energies could arrive in the evening hours as Venus forms an abrasive, 45-degree tie to Pluto (7:38PM PST) while the Sun forms a similar connection with Chiron (7:51PM PST). It is a good time to heal old wounds and pains. A major event happens later on when Mercury enters Capricorn (10:35PM PST) – a cycle that lasts until January 27. Think more about your higher destiny on Planet Earth than on trivial pursuits.
It’s difficult to maintain a steady work pace today if your natural rhythm feels off balance. Your key planet Mars is stressed in your 6th House of Daily Routine, possibly making advanced planning of your day counterproductive. It’s better to be free from too many commitments now because you could be required to respond to changing circumstances. If you feel as if you’re stuck in a rut, making small changes is healthier than turning everything upside down.
You typically stick with a decision once you make up your mind, but you might go back and forth several times today before you finally are satisfied with your choice. Your ambivalence could leave you feeling nervous, especially if you’re getting pressured by others to make a commitment. However, it’s not wise to give your final answer before you are comfortable with it. Step back from all the noise so you can listen to your inner voice; your intuition won’t steer you wrong now.
It seems as if time is speeding up and your life is moving faster than you prefer. Normally, you like the thrill that comes from a lot of activity, but today you will be ready for some rest by the end of the day. Give yourself time to relax in the evening, since you will need to have your wits about you if relationship issues surface. An emotionally charged conflict that arises now is best handled in the present moment with honesty and kindness.
You would love to find a harmonious balance today between your desire to resolve an ongoing disagreement and your tendency to avoid difficult communication by withdrawing into your shell. Although you’re considering every option, you’re fairly comfortable with your own feelings. If you sense emotional tension in the atmosphere, make everyone feel better by confronting the issue directly.
You may receive a “Get Out of Jail Free” card from the universe, however, you must use it right away. Although you haven’t solved any long-term issues, you can sidestep the problems for a while as you relax by taking a scenic ride today. Imagine yourself moving through the day as if it is a dream while always keeping one foot on the ground, so you won’t forget what’s real. Remain open to pleasurable experiences now without stressing about how you will integrate them into your life.
The proverb “the devil is in the details” could be your unraveling today. Everything may appear to be unfolding according to your master plan, but it’s entirely possible you could overlook something very important. Rather than trying to minimize your error, face up to it right away. Avoiding a problem will only make it grow in size. Make the necessary changes so you can put things back on track as quickly as you can.
Today goes well for you if you can keep your feelings to yourself, since your desires will likely conflict with what others want. Unfortunately, you have something to say and you don’t want to put it off. Once you begin expressing yourself, it’s hard to know when to stop. You could work yourself into a state of anxiety that makes you less effective in communicating your message. Avoid becoming a victim of your own passion now by using as few words as you can to explain your point of view.
You may be juggling your responsibilities today because you’re trying to accomplish too much at once. Still, you could complete everything that is required if you stop and prioritize what you need to do. Mapping out your day helps to prevent you from scattering your energy and frittering away your resources. Be realistic in your approach; if necessary, pare back activities instead of waiting until you’re already behind schedule.
You may believe that a new strategy is required now to take a relationship to the next level or to revitalize it with fresh energy. Nevertheless, you still might resist the necessary changes unconsciously if you aren’t certain which way you want to go. Don’t let confusion stand in the way of truth. Rather than tapdancing around the edges of confrontation, be direct and say exactly what’s on your mind. Even if your opinion creates dissension, resolution will be possible once everything is out in the open.
You have lots of thoughts running through your head today, but it’s challenging to put them into words because they are moving so quickly. It’s difficult to gauge the impact of your presentation because one minute it seems as if everyone’s agreeing with you, and then the next minute someone’s belittling your perspective. Paradoxically, you’ll be more successful if you don’t try so hard. Be patient and save your most convincing arguments until tomorrow when the planets are on your side.
You might think that you can sweet talk your way through a tricky situation today, but someone may not be willing to take what you say at face value. There can be powerful feelings just beneath the surface, making it difficult for you to get your way. Normally, your fixed sense of purpose enables you to successfully navigate your way through the obstacles. Although it’s difficult to focus now, you can still win an argument if you remember to keep bringing the discussion back to the point at hand.
Although you may be an incurable dreamer, it’s not helpful to drift off into the clouds now. You won’t be able to complete what you have started if your mind keeps wandering into the future. It’s more important to concentrate on the present moment than to think about what you will need to do next. If necessary, lean on a trusted friend or partner for help. But even if someone’s advice feels more like criticism, listen to what you’re being told and consider incorporating it into your strategy.

Emotional EruptionsJanuary 6 – 8 |
Friday is fun and flirtatious with the Moon hanging out in chatty Gemini, making it easy to start conversations on virtually any subject with just about anyone. Minds are easily stimulated and curiosity about everything tempts us to gossip about others. But the heady side of this Air sign is augmented with physicality and a strong taste for pleasure when lunar connections with romantic Venus and passionate Mars spice up the evening with a lust for life and a hunger for love. Playful and provocative games can entertain those looking for diversion and inspire Eros for people lucky enough to have willing partners.
Emotions become even more powerful on Saturday with the Moon’s shift into watery Cancer. Yet the safety usually sought in this security-oriented sign is shaken by eruptions of unexpected events and volatile feelings. Rebellious Uranus springs surprises and reflects rapidly changing moods that can destabilize evening plans. Flexibility helps to keep the lid on the intensity, which is important with a supersensitive Cancer Full Moon occurring late Sunday night. This emotional lunation opposes powerful Pluto which could push people to extremes, taking relationships to critical points that may bring breakthroughs for some or cause breakdowns for others.
It may seem that the upcoming Full Moon that will happen late on Sunday night is far into the future. Nonetheless, in astrology, the two days prior to a Full Moon represent a 48-hour time-period to prepare for the enlightening vibrations that come through to humanity from divine sources at the Full Moon. The two days after a Full Moon signify a distribution phase of the illuminating energies received. Therefore, a complete five-day process is really at work. Your job today is to stay in clear contact with friends and dear ones – gently guiding them upward and onward to the heights of inspiration that can occur a couple of evenings from now. While a supportive, 60-degree link from Vesta to Pluto (8:24PM PST) and a flowing trine from the Moon in Gemini to Venus in Aquarius (8:41PM PST) can give you a wealth of happy feelings, spurring you to excel in business ventures, and creative and artistic media, the Moon also squares Mars (8:45PM PST) while Venus in Aquarius and Mars in Virgo form an off-kilter, 150-degree link (9:28PM PST). Of these two aspects, the Venus-Mars 150-degree connection is the one to watch and possibly tweak in your favor. The tendency is for love bonds to possibly go awry due to a miscommunication. However, focus and attentiveness on your part may save the day. The bottom line is that you want to keep your distance from battles of the will and foolish arguments that lead to cul-de-sacs of the mind and heart.
Silver rays flowing, Full Moon’s power growing.
Coming, going, coming, going, flowing down to me…….
Moonbeams flowing, Goddess power growing.
Coming, going, coming, going, flowing into me!
So Mote It Be!
You may actually enjoy yourself today, even if you don’t get very much accomplished. You might be more interested in learning something new than you are in finishing your work. Unfortunately, this can stir up the ire of a co-worker who wishes that you would hold up your end of the deal. Avoid causing unnecessary trouble now by attending to your responsibilities before going off on your intellectual exploration.
You may feel as if you are caught between two opposing forces, yet you’re limited in how you can respond. It would be ideal if you could accept a wonderful invitation that is offered to you today, but previous work obligations don’t give you enough time. You would love to jump at a chance to make more money, but it probably isn’t time yet. Keep plugging away for now; your opportunity to shine will come soon enough.
The Moon’s return to your sign is exciting because you see wonderful possibilities everywhere you look. However, too many choices can be a bit overwhelming, especially if you’re trying to follow through on a task that you started earlier in the week. Don’t be too hard on yourself if you aren’t able to concentrate on your work. Just make certain that you return to it later so you don’t let anyone down.
The Moon’s shift into your 12th House of Privacy reinforces your tendency to withdraw emotionally if circumstances become too confusing or intense. But taking defensive action and retreating behind a wall of secrecy won’t necessarily make you feel any more secure. Your smartest strategy now is to talk about your concerns. Getting your feelings out into the open saves you from having to pull into your fantasies in order to feel safe.
Although there may be pressure on you to fulfill promises you made at work, you might rather be socializing with your friends or associates. Unfortunately, it’s so easy to distract yourself today, you could forget to return to your chores. Instead of avoiding your responsibilities by pursuing one thing after another, make a commitment to finish what you start before rewarding yourself with the pleasurable company of others.
You are standing at a fork in the road and have a choice to make now that could have a significant impact on the direction of your career. Although you can clearly see the pros and cons of taking either direction, you must decide based on what you know today, rather than what might happen in the future. Your dreams are important, but it’s smarter to be practical and stick with the facts when making major decisions.
Your current ideas are not limited by reality, yet thinking big may lead you in an entirely new direction. Unfortunately, placing too much importance on your imagination can be disorienting if you don’t balance your dreams with your actual circumstances. It’s better to give yourself permission to let your mind wander than attempting to stop your natural creative flow. Just remember that you don’t have to act on every whim or share every thought.
It may be annoying at first if something happens to distract you from your agenda today. You won’t likely change your mind easily, but your unwillingness to be flexible isn’t helpful now. Having to let go of your plans may seem like a setback, but it could be a blessing in disguise. This is not about your failure to reach your goals; rather, it’s a temporary break in your progress that allows you to recharge your batteries so your energy is there when you need it most.
It’s all about relationships today with the Moon’s presence in your 7th House of Companions. Other people can either be a source of exciting fun or irritating distraction. Or, more likely, someone is both pleasant and bothersome at the same time. You don’t want to be alone so you enjoy the company, yet it’s difficult to maintain a steady pace when another person keeps pulling you off track. There’s no simple solution to your current dilemma, but being adaptable enables you to keep a positive attitude all day.
You are confused about what to do at work today. Even if you’ve been assigned a specific task, there are several ways for you to approach it. The dualistic Gemini Moon’s visit to your 6th House of Details can bog you down in minutiae or red tape unless you keep reminding yourself of your goal. Ultimately, it’s better to jump in and get busy than to continue analyzing the various possibilities. The sooner you start, the sooner you finish.
Losing yourself in fantasies becomes more attractive day by day, but the longer you can remain focused on the real world, the better off you’ll be today. Your dreams can be a significant source of inspiration if you also keep your feet on the ground. There will be time to float off into your imaginary world in the days ahead, but for now, keep bringing your thoughts back to the present moment so you can make good use of your original ideas.
Although your life may be filled with things to do and people to see, you might prefer the idea of amusing yourself on your own. Or, perhaps, you like the idea of friends coming over to your place so you don’t have to go out to enjoy yourself. Even at work, you may be torn between your desire to keep to yourself and the need to interact with your co-workers. However, there’s no urgency to resolve this dilemma today, for it will take care of itself soon enough.
Keep decision-making to a bare minimum as the Moon in Taurus squares Neptune (12:47AM PST) and begins a short void lunar uncertainty zone that lasts until 2:45AM PST. Drop important plans for the time-being and be more reflective and contemplative. Once the lunar orb enters loquacious and versatile Gemini (2:45AM PST), light-hearted conversations, arts, crafts and hobbies are back in the picture. Stop worrying about things you can’t control. Catch up with correspondence and high-tech interests as the Moon makes a supportive, 60-degree liaison with Uranus (4:37AM PST). The Moon in this kind of rapport with revolutionary Uranus can also spark ingenious brainstorms that may eventually lead to the financial pot of goal. Write down inspirations in a special notebook for future implementation. Remember the admonition from the first day of the year concerning Jupiter and Saturn being close to an opposition sky pattern. Their tug-of-war across the zodiac is an actual frequency of energy that can disrupt how you think and feel on high and deep levels of awareness. Your best bet is to inject good humor into your business and professional work in order to avoid a retreat into self-doubt or pessimism.
