Saturday, JANUARY 10

The Sun opposes Jupiter early today, and Mars does the same this morning. The Libra Moon gets into the argument as it squares these three bodies and Venus (Venus opposed Jupiter yesterday).

It’s a time when recent excesses can come to light, demanding change or a shift in priorities. At issue now are conflicting urges regarding what we think we should do versus what we want to do. There are two areas of life where we have a particular need to shine, grow, and improve, represented by the Sun and Mars in Capricorn and Jupiter in Cancer, but these may seem to be in direct conflict with one another at this time.

We may have a strong desire to expand, to grow, and to do and know more. If we feel limited or restricted, or if we don’t know where to begin, it can frustrate us. There can be impatience. What we want to do may conflict with what is possible. We may get fired up over opposing viewpoints, and we may need to adjust our action plan.

The desire to go big is with us, but so is the tendency to overestimate. Competitive feelings, however, can motivate us to push ourselves a little harder–the trick will be to do so with moderation. Errors in judgment made now are likely due to impulsiveness and the overlooking of crucial details.

Mars-Jupiter can bring a turning point to a project or even an attitude. We can feel passionately about our goals and beliefs, but we should watch that this doesn’t become self-righteousness. Instead, we might work hard to improve our ideas and uncover information.

There is a lot of creative energy generated now, but perhaps a little too much, so that tempers can flare. It’s best to watch for arrogance. Ideally, we harness this power to make changes and improvements.

Note that mistakes made now can be more memorable than usual.

The Moon is void from 12:54 PM EST, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a square to Venus), until the Moon enters Scorpio on Sunday, January 11th, at 5:55 AM EST.
