Forecast for Jan. 17-30
Relationships can be derailed by insensitivity when abrasive Mars opposes Venus on the 19th-20th. Group activities are favored after the sun transits into friendly Aquarius on the 20th. Lucky Jupiter and practical Saturn team up on the 19th-23rd to help manifest our aspirations. The full moon in dramatic, warmhearted Leo on the 22nd revs up romance, creativity and entertainment. Idealism rules when Mercury and Neptune merge on the 22nd-23rd. Venus transits in practical Capricorn on the 24th, just before a merger with Pluto intensifies passion and jealously on the 23rd-24th. Speaking of Pluto, the planet of transformation shakes up the status quo when it takes a stroll through Capricorn from Jan. 25-June 14, before turning retrograde. Next, retrograde Mercury messes with communications from Jan. 28-Feb. 17. And Mars turning direct on the 30th will revitalize projects that stalled late last year. If you know your rising sign from your time of birth, read that too.
