Wednesday, JANUARY 4

A Venus-Jupiter sextile this morning encourages us to loosen up as we tap into our spirit for enjoyment. It’s a soft, pleasant influence that promotes cooperation, acceptance, inclusiveness, and optimism, particularly in our relationships. We are freer and more generous with our affection, time, and money.

This is one of the most favored transits for entertaining and socializing. We bring optimistic spiritual energy to our lives and seek a higher purpose or meaning through our connections and values. Romantic opportunities can emerge, or there can be lucky finds, pleasing purchases, and a hopeful financial outlook or prospects.

Later today, we’re creative about going after what we want with a biquintile between the Sun and Mars. We can maneuver and plan stylishly, and we’re naturally competitive without antagonism. It’s a useful transit for planning and strategizing.

The Moon spends the day in sociable, intelligent Gemini.

The void Moon occurs from 7:08 PM EST, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a conjunction to Saturn), until the Moon enters Cancer the next day, Thursday, January 5th, at 9:15 AM EST.
