This week we have a difficult time feeling good about where we currently are in our lives. We may feel extra pressure from within to expand our lives into new territory. There is a lot of potential for us to get into arguments or fights with loved ones, to descend into self deprecating self talk, and to escape from reality in unhealthy ways. These feelings of restlessness if tapped into the right way can help us to make changes towards a better life, but only if we find ways to be grateful for where we are at right now. We need to see the silver lining in every hardship and use that as a catalyst towards making healthy life choices, not escaping life.

We have a lot of energy helping to guide us into making more strategic plans for our future that are more in line with the path we want to be on. Breakthroughs and breakdowns characterize the week and we need to be kind to ourselves and others.

Tarot cards for the week:

The Tower, The Emperor, The Devil, The Moon, Judgement, Temperance, Death, and The Magician

Monday 1/7

Moon in Aquarius

The Moon in Aquarius could spark deep feelings of need for change. We may be extra hard on ourselves at the beginning of the week if we feel we are setting up high expectations for ourselves or those around us and missing the mark. We need to focus on being productive but not getting caught up in the parts we cannot control or whether things are going perfectly. Implement changes into your life that are helpful, but beating yourself up about it should not be one of them.

Strong Aspects During the Day PDT

Venus enters Sagittarius 3:19 AM

Venus will be in Sagittarius for the remainder of January and ignites our passion around connecting spiritually to the world and others. We could feel an enhanced " wild at heart" kind of energy where we crave adventure and new experiences in our lives. Sagittarius enjoys sharing this energy with others and Venus does as well, so these two energies combining may ignite a new lease on life. No more holding back when it comes to love and adventure. You may find you are more willing to take risks during this time.

Moon Sextile Mars in Aries 7:42 AM

This transit helps to ignite our energy in the morning in a direct and action oriented way. We may feel ready to get the day started and to push goals or projects forward. This energy is also good for physical activity and working heat through the body. We benefit from keeping ourselves moving in the early hours. Be productive today.

Tuesday 1/8

Moon in Aquarius

We continue to feel a need for change and we may be brainstorming ways to create those changes within our lives. Make a plan and try not to do anything without thinking it through as there is a lot of potential for miscommunication during the week.

Strong Aspects During the Day PDT

Mercury in Capricorn Square Mars in Aries 2:05 AM

This transit causes a lot of tension in the air around communication and moving projects forward. We may feel a lot of intense energy to get things going, and if we are not careful it could end up not working out the way we had hoped. We need to do things slowly and accurately rather than fast and reactive. This is not a time to communicate ideas or projects in an aggressive manner to those we are working with. There is also a lot of potential to feel overly irritable and reactive more than usual. We will feel a build up of this energy in the days leading up to and after. Expect remnants of this energy all week. Kundalini Yoga is a great way to decompress and move heat through the body when feeling angry or triggered.

Wednesday 1/9

Moon Void of Course 8:53 AM

Moon enters Pisces 11:44 AM

The Moon in Pisces is helpful this week and will bring in some cooling energy after our heated Mars transits. However, it will enhance our sensitivity emotionally to everything and will cause us to be very in tune to the energy around us. It is important we find time to be alone and regroup during the day.

Strong Aspects During the Day PDT

Moon Sextile Uranus in Aries 8:53 AM

We feel a need to shake things up in our lives and our urge for a self expression is enhanced in the morning hours. There could also be some unexpected changes within our family or environment that come to us.

Moon Square Venus in Sagittarius 5:09 PM

Tension in the evening around our hearts is enhanced and we could feel a large need for something new. We could be lost in daydreams of what we wish our lives were like and there is a potential that we feel restless and unsatisfied with where we are at right now in our relationships. These feelings could induce a need for escapism and we need to be careful with what we do to fulfill those needs.
