Friday, JANUARY 1
Mercury forms a sextile to Neptune this morning, stirring our imagination. We can experience a sense of knowing and understanding with minimal explanation or instruction. Intuition is highlighted or awakened, and we apply it to practical matters creatively. We appreciate subtleties, which aids our understanding of others and situations. We are more readily inspired, and we might inspire others with our words. There is psychic openness in our interactions, and our communications are notably gentler or more compassionate.
A Venus-Uranus minor square later today suggests some restlessness or discontent with our current pleasures or pastimes, and a small change may be satisfying at this time. The Moon spends the day in the sign of Leo, stimulating our desire to reach out and share ourselves with others in heartfelt ways. Satisfaction comes from pride in our actions and creations.

Saturday, JANUARY 2
The Moon continues its transit of Leo until 8:13 PM EST, harmonizing with Venus in Sagittarius and Mars in Aries. This grand trine in Fire signs spurs us on and encourages the playful pursuit of our desires. We can feel inspired to create something unique. From 8:13 PM forward, the Moon transits humble, helpful Virgo.
We seek nourishment from others, and we tend to more naturally support others in turn. We take pride in these efforts today with the Sun sextile Ceres. Needs and cravings seem to be in harmony. With Mercury trine Vesta, we can feel pleasantly dedicated to our work or ideas. We are more able to focus on what we’re doing and communicating, and we’re especially inclined to notice and consider details.
The void Moon occurs from 5:00 PM EST, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a trine to Mars), until the Moon enters Virgo at 8:13 PM EST.

Sunday, JANUARY 3
The Moon spends the day in the sign of Virgo, harmonizing with the Capricorn Sun this evening. We seek to bring more order to our lives and be of service or help to others under the influence of a Virgo Moon. This can be a time when showing our reliability and backbone brings rewards. Transits today encourage cooperation and focus. We can feel pleasantly motivated to take care of business, get organized, or attend to important details.
The Sun is parallel Venus today, and we seek balance and harmony, preferring to attract rather than pursue and compromise instead of fight. We’re putting more pride in our relationships and ability to compromise. Guiding, sharing, and helping are themes.

Monday, JANUARY 4
Jupiter forms a semi-square to Neptune early today, and our idealism comes to the fore. We’re hopeful but perhaps looking in the wrong places for inspiration. Unrealistic or inflated expectations can mislead us–people can lead us astray, too. We might gloss over essential and realistic details, or disorganization can trip us up. It’s best to tame expectations and watch for self-deception.
However, as the day advances, this turns right around. We can become quite concerned with getting to the truth or the bottom of a matter, perhaps too insistently. We might uncover valuable information or gain insight into a topic that’s important to us–indeed, we’re more determined than usual to find solutions.
It’s a time for unearthing hidden meanings, although if this goes too far, we may be obsessed, manipulative, or paranoid. Battles of words can ensue. Increased tension or worry may motivate us to make useful changes, however. The Moon spends the day in perfectionistic Virgo, further encouraging us to find and fix problems.

Tuesday, JANUARY 5
The Moon finishes its transit of Virgo at 12:42 AM and enters Libra. The Moon in Libra is fair, balanced, and compromising. Its trines to Saturn and Jupiter this morning are steadying and clear-headed. We can visualize what we want to do, and our sense of form and design is strong. With Mercury parallel Venus and a Libra Moon, we’re particularly diplomatic today. We’re inclined to discuss relationships and affections, perhaps analyzing them. There’s a notable willingness to share our ideas and feelings and to accommodate others.

Wednesday, JANUARY 6
The Last Quarter Moon occurs in the sign of Libra this morning, and this phase of the Moon points to a possible crisis of consciousness. After basking in the awareness symbolized by the full light of the Moon at the time of last week’s Full Moon, we begin to see what works for us–and what doesn’t–in preparation for next week’s New Moon when something new is born again. It’s not the best time to start a significant project, as the decreasing light of the Moon symbolizes descent into unconsciousness. We might begin to finish up the details of whatever we conceived at the last New Moon. We’re arriving at a more mature view of a project or situation.
The Moon spends the day in the sign of Libra, and we’re significantly invested in our relationships, motivated to create a balance. The Moon’s square to Pluto and a Sun-Pluto parallel suggests a tendency for more intensity from our lives and relationships. The need to gain more control over our lives can feel pressing, and we should guard against temperamental behavior and decision-making.
Mars ends its lengthy transit of Aries, entering Taurus today for a stay until March 3rd. We might go to great lengths to protect what’s ours and to build our feelings of security and comfort during this cycle. With this position, we are determined, stubborn, and persistent. Mars in Taurus can be a relatively passive influence but full-on when resisting or defending something! In stark contrast to the impulsive Mars-in-Aries cycle, we pursue our goals by plodding along patiently. We’re looking for long-term satisfaction, although we can be particularly focused on creature comforts.

Thursday, JANUARY 7
The Moon continues its transit of Libra until it enters Scorpio at 3:53 AM EST. The Moon in Scorpio is persistent, passionate, and perceptive. However, it can feel on edge as the Moon opposes Mars, squares Saturn and Jupiter, and then opposes Uranus today. There can be some resistance to our needs and desires, and we can feel held back or pulled in different directions. Mercury and Venus will both change signs tomorrow, adding to a sense that we’re not settled.
We seek to probe deeply into topics and understand things rather than scratch the surface today with the Scorpio Moon and Mercury and Pluto forming a parallel aspect.

Friday, JANUARY 8
The Moon spends the day in observant, deep-feeling Scorpio. Both Mercury and Venus change signs today. Mercury heads into the sign of Aquarius, where it will transit for longer than usual–until March 15th–due to an upcoming retrograde cycle starting on the 30th. When Mercury is in Aquarius, we are hungry for knowledge and open to new and original ideas. Our thinking is progressive and objective. Our communication and thought patterns are spontaneous and liberal, and perhaps somewhat fragmented.
Venus moves into Capricorn today, and until February 1st, we are more likely to form connections with people who support our ambitions. We value enduring relationships, reliability, and faithfulness. We take expressing our feelings seriously and could take our time warming up to others.
The Sun forms a sextile with Neptune late morning, and we take things as they come, finding meaning in our experiences more readily than usual. This influence stimulates our imagination and sets an excellent mood for respecting our intuition. We’re tuned in, inspired, and charitable. We see things from a perspective that celebrates our differences. What feels like serendipity experienced now may have to do with a good sense of timing and a feeling of being in sync with the universe.
However, as the day advances, tonight’s Mercury-Mars square can agitate. We should watch for hasty communications and skipping steps. We can find ourselves too quickly in disagreement with others, most likely because we’re communicating ineffectively or impatiently. We may be competing for the floor when expressing our ideas, thoughts, and opinions, making it difficult to engage in healthy dialogue.

Saturday, JANUARY 9
The Moon continues its transit of Scorpio until it heads into Sagittarius today at 6:15 AM EST. The Sagittarius Moon is enthusiastic, confident, and forward-looking.
This morning, Venus forms a trine with Mars, encouraging friendly competition. Our timing is natural in our relationships, with business affairs, and in the arts. This transit spurs us on and encourages the pursuit of our desires. It’s easy to act upon our social and romantic needs.
We might bring more creativity to the work we do or the services we provide. It may be time to take a creative approach to our relationships and projects, and we’re particularly resourceful. This transit supports flow and ease in close personal interactions without sacrificing engagement. We can make connections that prove fruitful and fortunate, and business relationships and pursuits can prosper. We are also more interactive and charming than usual.
Later today, Mercury forms a conjunction to Saturn, and we’re inclined to think and communicate about serious matters, responsibilities, obligations to others, and worries or grievances as the day advances. Our ability to concentrate is enhanced now, possibly because circumstances call for it. There could be an increased need for solitude to think or solve problems.
This is a time for seeing things realistically or for their practical value, and we seek tangible results. This aspect can mark the start of a new project that involves communications, such as writing, speaking, or reporting. There might be a verbal or written commitment made now, or we could experience a form of a reality check.

Sunday, JANUARY 10
The Moon spends the day in Sagittarius, sparking our desire to learn, explore, and discover. A change of scenery or break in the routine appeals now. We set our sights high. Optimism is one of the positive traits of this position; neglecting to see the essential details is a potential problem, especially with Mercury semi-square Neptune and the Moon square Neptune. We may not be seeing things clearly, and we can find it all too easy to gloss over technical facts. There can be cloudy thinking or a tendency to daydream. We may not express ourselves clearly, or others are not reading our messages well–usually, it’s a combination of the two!
However, a Sun-Vesta trine helps ground us as the day advances. The need to dedicate ourselves to a project or cause is strong now.

Monday, JANUARY 11
Mercury aligns with Jupiter in the sign of Aquarius today, and both bodies form a sextile to Chiron. We’re inclined to talk and think about our dreams, plans, friends, and connections now, opening up and enjoying the process.
Verbal expression flows smoothly, and agreements or resolutions can figure strongly. We should watch for overstating and promising more than we can do, but it remains a good time to enjoy good humor and positive vibes. We have good intentions, and warm, healthy conversations are possible as a result.
Stretching our thinking to include new possibilities is a useful exercise now. We might free ourselves from restrictive and negative attitudes that have been undermining our progress.
We are incredibly open to learning from others and better able to help them understand our perspective. It’s a time of opening our minds to different views and philosophies. We are absorbing and possibly sharing what we’ve learned from past experiences and mistakes.
The Moon continues its transit of Sagittarius until 8:30 AM EST when it enters Capricorn. The Moon aligns with Venus in Capricorn this afternoon, and we’re practically inclined, finding more pleasure in taking care of business.

Tuesday, JANUARY 12
Mercury forms a square to Uranus this morning, and we can be impatient and scattered. Disorganization or abruptness with our communications is likely. It’s not easy to put everything together, organize our thoughts, or deal with routine matters under this influence. Tasks may be left undone or interrupted. We may be jumping ahead of ourselves in our communications. New information can surface that upsets the status quo, but it can also encourage new thinking and perspectives. This transit certainly stimulates our senses and can bring on sudden flashes of insight and fresh new ideas.
This afternoon, Venus forms a square to Chiron, and we may withdraw or hold back, easily rebuffed or hurt. We can feel somewhat drained temporarily, although this does allow us to refuel with more authentic motivation. A good approach would be to recognize and explore our feelings of vulnerability.
The Moon spends the day in responsible Capricorn, and it’s Balsamic all day–a New Moon occurs seconds after midnight tomorrow. While we can feel a little wired, it’s best to wind down.

Wednesday, JANUARY 13
The New Moon occurs seconds into the day in the sign of Capricorn, symbolizing a new beginning. It makes sense to focus on some of the constructive traits of the sign of the Goat–tenacious, resourceful, disciplined, wise, ambitious, prudent, constant–and consider how to positively incorporate these qualities into our lives. It’s a time to focus on practical and attainable long-term goals, work on developing maturity and common sense, prepare for the future, make commitments and recognize responsibilities, and realistically nurture our dreams.
With this potent Capricorn energy, we have the chance to create some serious order in our lives. It’s time to make concrete plans. We might develop reasonable boundaries and rules that offer us some freedom from worry and chaos.
This lunation aligns with Pluto, emphasizing an intense, focused, and ambitious period ahead of us.
A Mars-Saturn square occurs this morning, and with its proximity to the New Moon, it has more power. As determined as we may be, there are obstacles to surmount! We could feel blocked from asserting ourselves or pursuing our desires. It’s a time to slow down and make adjustments and edits, as we may encounter resistance if we push ahead. It can seem like more effort than usual is required to complete tasks. We might deal with disapproval or a dip in confidence, and we should draw on patience and aim to develop our endurance. It’s a better time for maintenance than it is for moving forward. We might recognize some of our limits and adjust our speed accordingly.
This evening, Venus forms a trine to Uranus, however, and we’re lightening up considerably as the day advances. This transit brings us out of our shells, encouraging our bolder, more innovative natures, socially speaking. We are especially interested in all that is new, fresh, invigorating, unusual, and out-of-the-ordinary regarding romantic involvements, entertainment or pleasures, and financial undertakings. We may be experimenting, improvising, and trying new ways of relating to others and expressing ourselves. We might discover alternative ways to make (or spend) money. Although a little detached, we’re freer with our feelings, and we find beauty in the unfamiliar or uncommon.

Thursday, JANUARY 14
Uranus stations and turns direct today after five months of retrograde motion, and Uranus energy hangs heavy in the air this week, with related themes dominating.
As the planet gains speed in the next few weeks, our urge to express our unique self, take some chances or risks, rebel, listen to our instincts, and stir up change are reawakened or externalized.
The Sun forms its yearly alignment with Pluto today. It’s a time when we seek more intensity from our lives and relationships. We’re persistent and our ambitions intensify. The need to gain more control over our lives can feel pressing, and we should guard against temperamental behavior and decision-making. We are strong-willed, resourceful, and focused, and we may very well benefit by keeping things to ourselves and not rushing forward prematurely.
This influence brings the desire for self-mastery to our attention. A small crisis might alert us to an area of life that requires work, improvement, and transformation. The need to gain more control over our lives motivates us, although some paranoia or extremes of thinking could be behind this. The focus should be on recycling, updating, revising, and eliminating so that we can grow.
A Mars-Neptune semi-square this afternoon can serve to diffuse the intensity. In fact, we can feel a bit winded temporarily. Seeing holes or losing some confidence in our plans, desires, and pursuits can be more of a symptom of the need for a bit of inspiration or a well-deserved break than a sign that our plans are lacking. Of course, if there are flaws, adjustments may be necessary. Otherwise, we may need to rest or recuperate before pressing forward. The Moon spends the day in fair-minded Aquarius.

The Moon transits Aquarius until 5:18 PM EST, and we seek intellectual stimulation and unusual or unconventional experiences. The Aquarius Moon is earnest, friendly, and principled. Some emotional detachment can help us now. Note that the Moon continues to be void until the Moon enters Pisces, and it’s best not to begin all-new ventures.
The Moon’s transit of Pisces from 5:18 PM EST is gentle, creative, and compassionate. It’s a good time for winding down or taking a break from the usual pace. Emotional or mental refreshment is useful for gaining perspective now. We head into “diffuse mode” to process and digest rather than focus too intently on specifics.

The Moon spends the day in Pisces, harmonizing with Mars, Uranus, and Venus. We’re encouraged to wind down or mellow out, and we may seek novel creative outlets to do so. The Moon in Pisces transit can serve to heighten our awareness of our spiritual nature and needs. We can also be evasive, or we might shy away from conflict, especially confrontation.
Mercury and Pallas align in the sign of Aquarius today, however, and we can be mentally active. A love for order in the world of ideas and problem-solving can figure strongly now. We’re especially concerned with what’s fair and just.

Sunday, JANUARY 17
Jupiter forms a square to Uranus today. While it’s an aspect between outer planets and its influence is strong, it only occurs this once. This transit stirs restless, rebellious energy. We might take risks for the sake of freedom but should avoid stirring the pot mindlessly. It’s not an ideal time for financial speculation or travel. We, too quickly, avoid taking responsibility for things that truly matter during this transit.
However, we might open ourselves up to new ways of thinking, which can be magical. As a matter of course, changes can be chaotic, but they can also turn into interesting and useful detours. It’s best not to jump too quickly into new ventures, as follow-through is not a strong suit at this time. Impulsiveness can work if we’re in tune with our needs, but it can lead to mistakes if we’re not. We should watch for making decisions while in the “freedom at all costs” mindset.
The Moon spends the day in the sign of Pisces, aligning with Neptune this morning and harmonizing with the Capricorn Sun tonight. We quickly tune into the vibrations around us, and we’re psychically open now. We’re inclined to dream, inspire, and seek inspiration.

The Moon ends its transit of Pisces and enters Aries at 2:08 AM EST. The Moon in Aries is assertive, direct, and straightforward. We want to move on and start fresh. We have no interest in dwelling on the past. While we want to be the first to discover new things, the Moon harmonizes with practical Saturn and then inclusive Jupiter today, and we can benefit from sharing time–and ideas–with others. This can be a time of increased ambition in general, and while we can make strides towards our goals, we may be putting too much pressure on ourselves to push matters forward.

Tuesday, JANUARY 19
The Sun enters the sign of Aquarius today, where it will transit until February 18th. During this cycle, we are motivated by our need for knowledge, experience, and originality. Innovation is more important to us than convention. Our attention turns to what is outdated in our lives, and we strive to find new perspectives and methods. The class distinctions, structure, and order that Capricorn found appealing now seem to be too rigid. The freedom of the individual becomes far more significant to us. We strive to free ourselves from some of the restrictions, inhibitions, and limitations that now feel constraining rather than safe in the month ahead. However, we can be unreliable, unpredictable, or too rebellious for our own good when the Sun is under strain.
The Moon spends the day in forward-looking Aries. An Aries Moon is bold and pioneering, and also very independent.

Wednesday, JANUARY 20
Saturn forms a semi-square to Neptune today, and some feelings of disillusionment can emerge as our dreams and ideals may be put to the test. Questioning our faith in our dreams can lead to lack of follow-through or wasteful activities and avoidance of responsibilities. Ideally, this crisis leads to a realignment of material goals and spiritual ideals as we assess what is truly meaningful to us. This is a longer-term, outer planet transit, but it’s a standalone one.
Also today, Mars aligns with Uranus. This transit occurs approximately every two years, and when it does, we can experience a sudden desire to make things happen. It’s a powerful time for ridding ourselves of attachments that have been weighing us down and for letting change in. We are bold and assertive, willing to experiment, and hyper-conscious of a need to act independently. The best way to harness this exciting but erratic energy is to act rather than react. However, it can be difficult to know whether our impulses come from genuine desire or if we are rebelling against restrictions. We should watch for rash decisions and impatience, which can lead to accidents or other missteps. Anger or rebellion can be sudden, unexpected, and erratic.
With Mars and Uranus in Taurus, there can be abrupt changes, choices, or decisions with money, valuables, possessions, ownership, and income, leading to a reshuffling of priorities or values. On a psychological level, this can be about boundaries, self-worth, and matters of respect. The Moon continues its transit of assertive Aries until 1:57 PM EST when it moves into stubborn, deliberate Taurus.

Thursday, JANUARY 21
The Moon spends the day in the sign of Taurus, and with this Moon position, we crave simplicity, comfort, and predictability. However, with both Mars and Uranus currently in the sign, we’d be wise to embrace some level of change and progress. The need to do our routines just a bit differently can arise. Nobody can force us to do anything just now–we are only in the mood to do things voluntarily. While the Mars-Uranus alignment is separating, the Moon aligns with Mars and Uranus today, and it’s strong in our hearts and memories.
However, a Mercury-Chiron semi-square challenges us to communicate with more sensitivity. There is some tendency to doubt our perceptions, and there can be impatience with rules, anxiety or guilty feelings, and conflicting viewpoints to contend with now. We may not have enough faith or confidence in our choices to make effective decisions at the moment, but this gives us a chance to learn more about areas where we feel uninformed.

Friday, JANUARY 22
The Moon spends the day in the sign of Taurus, and we seek comfort and pleasure. While Taurus is a placid sign, we’re heading to a Mars-Jupiter square, bringing hot-headed, dynamic energy to the day. Mars first formed an upper square to Jupiter in August 2020 while both Mars and Jupiter were in different signs, and then returned to this square when Mars was retrograde in October. Today’s third and final perfection can feel like the end of a story that began last summer.
With this transit, we tend to overdo or jump into action too hastily. We’re easily riled up, enthusiastic, or excited under this influence. We can be excited about our prospects, but perhaps too hasty, counting our chickens before they hatch, putting money into a venture that needs further review, or overestimating what we (or the world) can do. We may be so focused on what we think should be and lose sight of what is possible. A feeling of urgency may lead to coming on stronger than we intend. However, if we use common sense, this is a good time to stretch our imaginations and entertain new possibilities. Be watchful of making too much of a matter that doesn’t deserve so much attention.

Saturday, JANUARY 23
Saturn recently formed a semi-square with Neptune, and today, the Sun semi-squares Neptune and then aligns with Saturn. We’re reminded of the constraints of time and motivated by the desire to manifest tangible results. It’s “nose to the grindstone” time as we begin to recognize the need to work hard at our priorities.
We may feel burdened, overworked, or restricted, and possibly somewhat disillusioned, but these things motivate a fresh start. We might also welcome some discipline in our lives. It’s a time to work on a revised plan for creating order in our lives or on an old project that requires a new commitment. Emotional energy is not enough to fuel us for the time being. As such, we could feel sapped on a physical level.
However, recommitting to goals, shouldering responsibilities, and making careful use of our resources could feed our need for structure and order in our lives and get us back on track.
We also experience a Venus-Neptune sextile, helping us cut through some of the tension. We are looking to see the best in people with this transit. We are inclined to see the spiritual dimensions of our relationships and to treat others with increased compassion. It also helps detach us just enough from our feelings that we’re less possessive.
The Moon leaves Taurus and enters Gemini early in the day, at 2:44 AM EST. The Gemini Moon harmonizes with the Sun, Saturn, Chiron, and Jupiter, boosting cooperation, particularly through communications.

Today’s Moon Forecast
Moon in Taurus


The Moon is traveling through comfy Taurus today. Eat something you love. Have a second serving.
We are motivated by the desire for serenity, security, peace, and comfort. The Moon is at her most sensual and constant in Taurus.
