Your Daily Horoscopes for Friday, January 4th

We must navigate tricky territory when the planets encourage us early in the day and then discourage us later on. An enthusiastic Mars-Jupiter trine inspires confidence; we feel like we can do anything. But self-doubt enters the picture as sweet Venus rubs strict Saturn the wrong way. Thankfully, the dualistic Libra Moon enables us to experience both positive and negative feelings while following a path that is based upon moderating the extremes.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Your ruling planet Mars is supported by buoyant Jupiter today, motivating you to act on your feelings. You feel secure enough to express emotions that would normally make you feel uncomfortably vulnerable. Although your current zest for life may be contagious, you might grow more circumspect toward the evening. Respecting established boundaries now prevents you from having to reconsider your radical approach later on.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

Your key planet Venus forms a stressful aspect to somber Saturn tonight, reminding you that common sense will ultimately overcome your enthusiasm. However, don’t let your self-restraint kick into action too early in the day or you may miss the other planetary excitement bubbling around you. Starting a new project is a good idea as long as you’re willing to follow through with sincere effort after the initial buzz wears off.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

At first everyone seems to be having a fine time, but you can see beneath the surface and the atmosphere isn’t as copacetic as it appears. It isn’t your style to rain on someone else’s parade, yet the responsibility may fall on you to be the one to issue a reality check. Nevertheless, there’s no reason to approach the situation with negativity. Express your thoughts as kindly as possible and then let go of your attachment to what happens next.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

You feel the power of love today but you may not reveal your true passion, especially if the thought of expressing your desires makes you uncomfortable. Although you don’t like being emotionally vulnerable on a regular basis, there’s no need to let your irrational fears stand in the way of a potentially lovely experience. Instead of trying to control the process, just share what’s in your heart without expecting anything in return.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Although there are many excellent reasons to work in partnership now, be certain you have all the facts at your disposal before you make faulty assumptions. It’s tempting to overlook something you don’t want to know, but it’s better to be rational and have a solid handle on reality today. Ironically, acknowledging the weight of responsibility opens the doors for more pleasurable times. Do the right thing when it comes to matters of the heart and the rewards will follow.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You feel like you have an inexhaustible supply of energy today, prompting you to reach for the stars. Fortunately, harmonious trines to auspicious Jupiter in your 10th House of Status suggest that you could make a lot of progress toward your career objectives now. There’s nothing wrong with setting ambitious goals as long as you’re willing to earn your success gradually by working harder than everyone else.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Sink into your own feelings today as energetic Mars activates your 4th House of Emotional Security. Your current optimism might inspire others; however a slight case of self-doubt could gnaw away at your confidence. This negativity may just be a passing thought if you are flexible in your thinking. Once you realize the source of your anxiety, you can easily move past it and refocus on the opportunities at hand

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Your ruling planet Jupiter is a key player in today’s expressive cosmic configuration, pulling you head-first into the realm of relationships. Be careful about going overboard with your enthusiasm, especially if you are using it to cover a deeper concern. Finding a healthy balance between the adrenaline rush of reckless abandon and the dutiful routine of emotional responsibility isn’t easy, but well worth the trouble.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Demonstrating your competence at work is effortless today because everything seems to be going your way. Unfortunately, you may be so sure of yourself now that you take the path of least resistance rather than doing a job in your typically thorough manner. However, you could find yourself in trouble quickly unless you pay attention to all the little details. You can let your hair down and relax once you’ve fulfilled your current obligations, but not a moment sooner.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Jovial Jupiter is harmonizing with irrepressible Mars in your 1st House of Personality today, pushing your exuberance to the surface. Everyone can see that you’re putting your best foot forward, but you may not feel quite as optimistic as you appear. You have legitimate concerns about the actions of others; but instead of wasting your energy making judgments about someone else, change your own thinking. No one else’s behavior needs to negatively impact your day, unless you let it.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Your imagination is often a path for escape, yet today you can dream your way to success as long as you’re willing to cooperate with others on the job. Even if you’re tempted to withdraw from social interaction, push past your resistance and reach out to your co-workers now. Instead of worrying about what anyone else thinks about your contribution, just show up and be yourself. You may be happily surprised with the positive reinforcement you receive in return.

Your Weekend Lunar Love Horoscopes for Jan. 4th – 6th

Weekend Love Horoscopes

January 4 – 6: Take a Wild Ride

Jeff Jawer on the topics of love, horoscopes, astrology

This weekend offers a wild ride of adventure, excitement, mystery, romance and deep reflection. The ever-agreeable Libra Moon forms a friction-free Grand Trine with athletic Mars and confident Jupiter on Friday that encourages honesty and a willingness to take risks.

Trying new and different activities and speaking with friendly frankness inspires us to explore ideas and experiences that are outside the range of our normal activities. Connecting with new people or connecting in new ways with a current partner adds a big breath of fresh air to our relationship lives.

Sweet Venus joins the party on Saturday to warm up the late afternoon and early evening with a taste for art, music, beauty, travel and entertaining conversations. Very late that night we begin to move into more emotional and passionate spaces when the evocative Moon enters intense Scorpio. Intimacy comes when we let go of words and allow feelings to lead the way to the closeness we desire.

Sunday is ideal for complex conversations with favorable lunar aspects to cerebral Mercury, incisive Pluto and serious Saturn. The distance between mind and heart diminishes when we take plenty of time to discuss personal matters. Expressing ourselves with maturity and listening to others intently overcomes differences and increases trust.

Your Daily Cosmic Calendar for January 4th

Every so often, the universe tries to throw the kitchen sink in your direction by filling up the 24 hours of time with a wide variety of solar, lunar and planetary aspects. When so many sky patterns are vying for attention and supremacy, expect to go through several mood shifts and mental ups and downs. In the early going, focus your attention on a loved one’s needs as Mercury unites with Juno in Capricorn (2:09AM PST). A tremendous wave of creativity and enthusiasm arrives a couple of hours later as Mars trines Jupiter in air signs (4:47AM PST), Venus makes an inspirational, 72-degree rapport with wounded-healer Chiron (5:00AM PST), and Mercury makes a supportive, 60-degree tie with Chiron (5:55AM PST). Not to be outdone, the Moon in Libra puts together a Grand Triangle in air signs by forming trines to Jupiter in Gemini (6:36AM PST) as well as Mars in Aquarius (6:44AM PST). Literary, educational and athletic pursuits look promising. However, pressing your luck later on may not be a good idea since Venus makes a frictional, 45-degree tie with Saturn (5:30PM PST), Mars makes an abrasive, 135-degree contact with Ceres (5:45PM PST) and the Last Quarter Sun-Moon Phase (activating 15 degrees of Capricorn and Libra at 7:59PM PST) arrives with another dose of frustration or rising discord. A good-luck charm can come in the form of a supportive, 60-degree rapport from Juno in Capricorn to Chiron in Pisces (7:48PM PST). This uplifting aspect helps to neutralize some of the tensions affecting key relationships this evening.

Gibbous Moon

(waning /52% illumination)

This is a tremendous time of transmutation. All of the prior elements are coming together for a final burst of creative output. You have seen a clear view of your own needs and the posture of significant others. Now the accumulation of that input is leading to a deep, core change within you. In this phase, you will naturally be inclined to seek higher guidance so that you can emerge from this transformation successfully. The Disseminting Moon favors sharing what you have learned (and are learning) with others.

Daily Horoscopes for Thursday, January 3rd

We want to be responsible now, but it may be difficult to settle down and follow through on our commitments as mental Mercury tensely squares erratic Uranus. Although we are restless, help comes from three planets in stable Capricorn and the Moon in patient Virgo. Meanwhile, an optimistic Sun-Jupiter alignment tempts us to follow our bliss. The Moon’s shift into accommodating Libra at 8:10 pm EST reminds us to consider other people’s needs, too.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Although you may feel like changing the course of events today, others might not be willing to follow your lead. You could be too impulsive, since you’re inclined to jump to conclusions without having the necessary facts to support your fantastic ideas. Go ahead and be as inventive as possible now, but don’t expect anyone else to join in your parade. March to the sound of your own drum instead of waiting for something to happen.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

You like knowing what’s real, yet a whole new set of data may come to your attention today that gives rise to self-doubt. You might even question whether or not you’re on the right track. Your resistance to change could harden into rigidity but this isn’t a sensible strategy, especially if your previous assumptions were wrong. Remaining open to other options doesn’t fix the underlying problem, but it can make your day easier to manage along the way.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

You’re on top of your mental game today and can amaze people with your wit and wisdom. However, extra care is required or you might become so enthralled with your own cleverness that you take an argument too far. Too much eagerness on your part could cause you to lose ground in a conflict. Go ahead and take a risk, but think twice before pushing your luck.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

You may step on someone’s toes unintentionally because you’re uncharacteristically insensitive today. Normally, you’re acutely aware of people’s feelings, but you might get so excited now that compassion falls to the wayside. Your temporary lack of concern doesn’t mean you are unkind; it’s just that your enthusiasm makes you a bit inconsiderate. The simple solution is to stop and think about the impact of your words before you speak them.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You are eager to enjoy yourself today, but previous commitments might present time management problems. Unfortunately, your nervous energy could grow distracting unless you consciously channel it into a creative activity. It’s a good day to work in partnership with someone whose approach is much different from yours. A collaborative effort can be highly productive and may even bring the personal satisfaction you were originally seeking.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

An unconventional plan helps to break you out of a familiar rut today. A job-related issue that’s been eluding resolution may suddenly be put to rest, with the answer coming to you like a bolt of lightning. But don’t take yourself too seriously, even if your solution is brilliant; acting in a self-righteous manner puts others on the defensive. Simply make your decision and then move on without the need to prove your superiority.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Your day won’t likely run as smoothly as you wish because unexpected circumstances can have a dramatic impact on your schedule. Unfortunately, you might become quite frustrated if you cling to your original agenda. The smartest way to handle irresolvable tension now is to simply let it go. Acknowledging that fate is temporarily in charge of your life makes embracing the surprises more pleasant than resisting them to no avail.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Worrying about an unlikely outcome only creates additional stress as you become enthused about a radical approach to a sticky problem at work. There are many possible solutions now, but you have reservations about moving into uncharted territory by taking charge. Your ideas are probably better than you think, so go ahead and initiate action. You can always make necessary adjustments and try again later if you don’t hit the nail directly on the head.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

The notion of doing something completely different from everyone’s expectations is rather thrilling now. Unplanned activities may supersede your previous commitments. You could even stir up a bit of mischief just to see what kind of reaction you get. Have fun; there’s no need to go out of your way to conform since your current unconventional ideas will likely lead to a sensible plan by tomorrow.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You are usually cautious in your conversations about business, but your thoughts may be so loud today that it’s hard to keep quiet. You might even say contradictory things now, which lowers your overall credibility. Instead of rambling on and on, continue to develop your ideas on your own and wait until tomorrow before sharing them. You’ll have a much better chance of impressing others if your plan is well conceived.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Your nervous system is wired tightly today while chatty Mercury is getting buzzed by electric Uranus, your key planet. Be careful, since you could easily commit your time and energy to a creative project that isn’t really in your best interest. Consider the consequences before agreeing to an endeavor that can drain your resources. There’s no reason to add more activity to your already busy schedule unless it’s something you really want to pursue

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You want to show everyone how independent you are today, making you less accommodating than usual. Your patience may be tested, tempting you to say something that could be disruptive. Nevertheless, you don’t have to put up with childish games as long as you’re prepared to deal with the ramifications of your current rebelliousness. Thankfully, the results will be worth the temporary turmoil if you clearly express your honorable intentions to others.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for January 3rd

How you deal with delays and frustrations can test your character. This theme may be prevalent today as a void lunar uncertainty zone begins at 4:16AM PST during a Moon-Venus square of 90-degrees. From 4:16AM PST to 5:12PM PST, it is best to go with the flow, complete old business on a high note, and put new, bold enterprises on hold while the void-of-course Moon in Virgo is in charge. During the unsettled nature of today’s lunar predicament, Mercury squares Uranus (8:31AM PST) while Venus opposes Ceres (9:01AM PST). Major aspects that occur during a void time-span are usually watered-down or made less influential. Therefore, the Mercury-Uranus square from Capricorn to Aries is a challenge on the communication, literary and educational fronts, but the aspect may lose some of its volatility and anxiety. The Venus-Ceres polarity is a reminder to stay as productive as possible in crafts and hobbies, but don’t go overboard on complex projects difficult to manage effectively. Once the Moon enters Libran territory (5:12PM PST), the cosmos is directing you to improve the quality of your primary partnerships and plunge into a favorite fine or graphic art project. Love vibrations increase in frequency — courtesy of a Sun-Venus parallel (6:05PM PST). Let the good times roll at an impromptu party tonight.

I say, “Hail!” to the Holy One who appears in the heavens!
I say, “Hail!” to the Holy Priestess of Heaven!
I say, “Hail!” to Inanna, Great Lady of Heaven!
Holy Torch! You fill the sky with light!
You brighten the day at dawn!
I say, “Hail!” to Inanna, Great Lady of Heaven!
Awesome Lady of the Annuna Gods!
Crowned with great horns,
You fill the heavens and earth with light!
At evening the radiant star, the great light fills the sky,
The Lady of the Evening comes bravely forth from heaven,
The people in all the lands lift their eyes to Her,
The ox in his yoke lows for her,
The sheep stir up the dust in their fold,
The beasts, the many living creatures of the steppe,
The lush gardens and orchards, the green reeds and trees,
The fish of the Deep and the birds of Heaven,
Inanna makes them hurry to their sleeping places.
I say, “Hail!” to Inanna, First Daughter of the Moon!
Mighty, majestic, and radiant,
You shine brilliantly in the evening,
You brighten the day at dawn,
You stand in the heavens like the sun and the moon,
Your wonders are known both above and below,
To the greatness of the Holy Priestess of Heaven,
To you, Inanna, I sing!

(Each goes forward to add their word to the clay tablets. These can be used as divination later, in succeeding years.)

Your Daily Cosmic Calendar for January 2

Cleaning up your act may still be in the offing on the second day of 2013. Virgo Moon remains in force and that often translates as the need to get rid of non-essentials. Bring outgrown clothing to second-hand stores for resale. Make the kitchen and bath areas shine again. Stock up on vitamins, minerals, soaps, lotions, herbs, nuts, seeds, and seasonings. The little things of life can make or break your day. Fortunately, the Moon in Virgo and the Sun in Capricorn form a harmonious trine (9:00AM PST) — providing much of the day with an optimistic sense that goodwill can prevail over worry and self-doubt. You want to bask in this aura of physical vitality, emotional fortitude, and mental exuberance for as long as possible because a Mars-Pluto parallel at 20 degrees south of the Celestial Equator clocks in at 7:47PM PST. Parallels are calculated via north and south distances from the great circle around the Earth known as the Celestial Equator. Many professional astrologers see parallels as fairly equivalent to conjunctions of cosmic bodies in the zodiac or via the Ecliptic (the apparent Sun’s path in the sky). This Mars-Pluto encounter indicates that the psychic atmosphere is filling up with assorted tensions. Pressing the anger button or barking out commands to dear ones is taboo. Strive for serenity and direct your passions into enjoying exercise routines or athletic contests.

Unimportant events that might normally pass by unnoticed now stand out with greater emphasis once the Moon slips into detail-oriented Virgo and sharpens our perspective. However, words don’t seem to match up with what’s happening as communicator Mercury aligns with confusing Neptune. The Moon’s stressful opposition to Neptune infuses our feelings with fantasy. Nevertheless, separating facts from fiction can be enough to create positive change.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Although this is likely a day away from work, there might be so much to do at home that you wish you were on the job. Nevertheless, you can see past the present moment as you anticipate the waves of relief heading your way. In the meantime, focusing on the present moment keeps your mind occupied. Don’t let your responsibilities lag; taking care of the most pressing tasks right away eases the intensity so you can find time to relax.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

A cautious approach to having fun today might sound restrictive at first, but you should be able to make this strategy work with ease. There is no need to go overboard with any type of indulgence; you can thoroughly enjoy yourself now by sharing simple pleasures with your friends or family. Instead of scheming for more gratification in the future, find contentment with what you have in the present.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

You may feel conflicted today because you’re currently motivated by needs that are different from your natural tendencies. Normally, you would choose communication over silence and activity over passivity. However, you can recharge your emotional batteries now by passing up a tempting party invitation or skipping a distracting trip to the bookstore. But even if you wisely choose to retreat, a part of you still longs for the action. Rest now; play later.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

You are unsure about how involved you want to get with the emotional dramas that are unfolding around you. You might decide that acting cautiously is smarter than jumping into a conflict, only to discover that you are already playing a role in the scene anyhow. You may as well offer your assistance today, for your resistance will only delay a workable resolution. Showing your support by listening to your friends is the first step to establishing common ground.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You may doubt yourself if you are putting too much effort into containing your energy. You’re happiest when your love can be expressed naturally and everyone fully appreciates the magic you bring to their world. Now, however, it’s tricky finding a healthy balance between your inner and outer worlds. Too much exuberance makes others uncomfortable. Too much self-restraint prompts them to worry about you. Don’t be overly concerned; ultimately, all you can do is be yourself.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Even if there are unresolved issues floating around a current relationship, you can still latch onto a sense of well-being today. Once you decide to take everything in stride, communication becomes more straightforward and you’re apt to just say what’s on your mind. You’re smart enough to know that some things are beyond fixing, and worrying about them won’t make it easier to let go. Forget about the big picture for a while and revel in what you can do in the present moment.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Retreating from the hectic world is a smart idea today and if you take care of your responsibilities early on, you can actually manifest a very relaxing day. However, you must scale back your social obligations or things probably won’t unfold according to your ideal plan. Be ready for a few unexpected twists and turns; engage them willingly instead of resisting the inevitable. Your adaptability is the secret to your success.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Although you might believe that being alone with your thoughts is the best way to spend the day, you will probably be better off hanging out with others today. But don’t squander your time by celebrating with just anyone; you can be as selective as you want when it comes to the company you keep. Choose a few special friends and carve out enough space to share something meaningful. An unexpected gift of appreciation or a warm gesture of affection is a wonderful way to demonstrate your love.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You have recently experienced a phase of expansionism and it’s time to re-establish balance in your life. Actually, your tendency to overstep limits may be a central theme for months to come, but it’s still not healthy to lose yourself in unrealistic visions for next year. Instead, focus your attention on something you can change right now — in the present moment. Today, thinking small is your smartest strategy.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Having a concrete plan can help you feel better, but it still may be difficult to turn your thoughts into actions today. Don’t be too self-judgmental if you can’t yet get the traction you desire. You wisely realize that the best ideas take time to develop. Nevertheless, remember that you are currently caught between optimism and realism. Be patient; the pace will accelerate in the months ahead and a solid foundation prepares you for the changes of the future.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

It’s awesome that you can still be comfortable even when life gets strange and weird. It’s not that anything in particular is going wrong now; it’s just that there are lots of loose ends that defy tying up. Instead of attempting to finish last year’s business today, accepting circumstances as they are may be your most intelligent approach. Your irreverent sense of humor might just save the day, capturing the attention of admirers of a quick wit.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Your friends might try to bring you back down to earth today, but it’s not easy to spend time with them if they’re raining on your dreams and draining your enthusiasm. It’s not that they have bad intentions where you’re concerned; it’s just that they don’t understand the intense relationship you have with your imagination. You can be more tolerant of others once you understand that they sincerely have your happiness in mind.
