Forecast for Jan. 15-28
A series of happy Jupiter influences, including conjunctions to Mercury on the 18th, the sun on the 23rd and the new moon eclipse in Aquarius on the 25th, bring an optimistic, expansive vibe to communications, travel, socializing and creative projects-that is, if you can sidestep miscommunications from retrograde Mercury. The sun transiting into Aquarius on the 19th favors friendly gatherings and humanitarian projects. Business activities are favored by Mercury transiting into practical Capricorn on the 20th, the Mars-Saturn trine on the 24th and the Mercury-Mars conjunction in Capricorn on the 26th. As for romance, chemistry gets a dose of electricity from the Venus-Uranus conjunction on the 22nd, but love comes back down to earth when Venus opposes Saturn on the 24th.
