The Sun, Moon, Mercury and Pluto sitting in the most ambitious sign of the zodiac is enough to blow the doors open on your goals and career plans in the New Year. I’ll go so far as to say, you almost can’t wait to put your plans into place. The first day of the month may frustrate you because you can’t start any sooner because everyone is still on vacation! The best way to spend New Years Day and a New Moon in Capricorn is to start writing up a business plan for something you’ve been mulling around in your head for awhile. With Jupiter and Venus still retrograde, it’s not the time to sign the articles of incorporation quite yet. It is a super fantastic time to get serious about putting your long held dream on paper and putting some forward motion behind it. There may be naysayers around you with Mars in polite Libra sparking some to question your bold ambition, “Come on honey…do you really think we ought to be doing this right now? Do you really want to do this? What about us…OUR relationship? Shouldn’t THAT take priority…blah, blah, blah.” Let them talk and whine about your plans all they want. You have so much power behind them that nothing and no one will stop you! The Capricorn energy is slow, focused and powerful – just the right ingredients to climb the mountain of success. If anyone tries to hang on your back, cut them loose. You have places to go, important people to meet and projects to get off the ground.
On January 2, your will to succeed (Sun in Capricorn) will meet with a mean girl square from Mars in Libra. Think of a southern woman trying to manipulate you with sweet judgment just as sharp as any knife. You’ll be frustrated today. Just buck up and keep moving forward.
On January 3, Communicative Mercury in ambitious Capricorn will oppose expansive Jupiter in sensitive Cancer. You’ll get positive feedback on your ideas. Philosophical discussions could help you to tweak your plans. With oppositions to Jupiter, there’s a small risk of over exaggerating. Don’t promise more than you can deliver. Enjoy the dose of mental optimism. Communication and Transportation stocks may be up today but more on anticipation than actual hard core facts.
On Janauary 5, the Sun in serious Capricorn is opposing optimistic Jupiter in protective Cancer. Again, good feelings with a warning of not over-promising what you can deliver. You might tell others about your big plans. Make sure you have all i’s dotted before you go off the deep end and jump into the project. It may trip you up later. A good Capricorn enjoys the good feelings of the moment…cautiously. Use the positive momentum to stay focused on your New Years goal. We might see the stock market jump higher—mostly on food and staple items. It’s a fool’s play.
January 6, is a good day to focus on the fundamentals of your life and any stock picks. Mercury in corporate Capricorn is in a harmonious sextile to serious Saturn in OPM (Other People’s Money) Scorpio. It’s a good day to sign for a loan with the bank or lend money. It’s a great day for business meetings where solid plans can be made and commitments have a chance for follow through. Good day for serious conversations and working through the details. Progress can me made. The S&P 500 should be humming today.
On January 7th, Mercury is conjunct Venus in Capricorn. Ordinarily, this aspect would be good for declaring your love for someone or discussing the particulars of your relationship. But the energies are in business-like Capricorn, so think money and business discussions. It’s can be a good day to go over the family finances as well as your business finances. Interviews or meetings will be friendly and professional. It’s a good day to socialize in the office or meet new people, approach new client opportunities. Not a bad day to start a new job. You’ll feel welcome wherever you go today.
On January 8th, aggressive Mars in make-nice Libra is in a challenging square to optimistic Jupiter in Cancer. Squares involving Jupiter are usually not too rough, but you may come across as too pushy—stepping on someone’s territory (Cancer) without realizing it. Libra and Cancer are softer energies so there won’t be major blow ups just an uncomfortable feeling. If you were lucky enough to drum up a sales opportunity yesterday with a new client, don't push the envelope today. Tomorrow is better.
On Janauary 11th, is power packed if you like business strategies and goal fulfillment. Financially savvy Venus in serious business Capricorn will be in a harmonius sextile to structured Saturn in shared resources Scorpio. The Sun in Capricorn will be conjunct diplomatic Venus in Capricorn—a friendly business aspect. The Sun in Capricorn will be in a harmonious sextile to Saturn in Scorpio. This day was made for solid success! Good for pushing a piece of legislation through; the stock market should be up overall, conditions are good to solidify business deals and financing for business deals. You’ll feel good about what you accomplish today.
On January 14th, Mercury in Capricorn will be in a challenging square to Mars in Libra. You may have some good solid business ideas (Mercury) which someone will challenge, but not come right out and say so. Mars in Libra is sugar coated aggression. People will feel pissy which could have a trickle down effect. Communication and transportation stocks may be a little volatile.
On January 16th: Venus in Capricorn will be in a challenging square to Mars in Libra. There’s also a Full Moon in crabby Cancer today. With a lot of planets in ambitious Capricorn this month, you could take some flack from family/romantic partners that you’re spending too much time at the office or on projects. Oppositions (Sun opposing Moon) always speak to the need for balance. Use the Cancer full moon to express feelings you’ve been keeping on the back burner. The full moon can mean endings where endings need to happen. Perhaps it’s time to cut some emotional ties that aren’t meeting your needs. If you want to accomplish anything today , remember, no one likes a whiner, especially your Capricorn friends.
On January 17th, Mercury in Aquarius is in a harmonius sextile to radical Uranus in entrepreneurial Aries. You have big ideas about how your future should look, and you’ve got the energy to boldly move forward with them. There’s an extra dose of intellectual electricity in the air. Reach out and capture a few of those ideas in The Field today. Good day for communication/airline stocks.
On January 24th, Mercury in Aquarius makes a harmonius trine to Mars in Libra. It’s a great day to talk about the future of a relationship (Libra). Aquarius and Libra are air signs. It’s good day to stay in motion. Fly or drive somewhere and start up conversations with people you’ve never met—perhaps in transit. Potential new clients will be receptive to you today. You’re curious today and the energy is fast paced, communicative and diplomatic in a good way.
January 25: Mercury in independent Aquarius makes a challenging square to stay-in-the- lines Saturn in Scorpio. Even though Aquarius is independent minded, it’s a fixed sign. So is Scorpio. There may be a ‘dig in your heels’ disagreement with authority today. You might have some brilliant ideas about the way things could be, but Saturn the boss in Scorpio says, “N.O.!” When I see Mercury square Saturn aspects, it just means a big fat NO. Don’t interview anywhere or try to get a loan. What will the answer be? NO! Plan around today. The best use of the energy is to stick your nose to the computer grindstone and don’t ask for any favors. Down day for communication/transportation stocks.
Jupiter in Cancer in retrograde motion will start to make an opposition to Pluto in Capricorn today. The intensity will last for about a week. The aspect will be exact on January 31. Oppositions have to do with relationships—business, personal or both and issues that need to be worked out. Think self righteous resistance. This could be symbolic of government legislation or Democrat/Republican infighting that leads to a stand off. There are those who take the conservative Capricorn power position and those who take the position that we need to be generous (Jupiter) or protective to those in need (Cancer). Discussions may start out friendly and hopeful. The closer we get to January 31st, the more volatile this aspect gets. Not a good aspect for homebuilder stocks and those industries that cater to real estate.
January 29th, the Sun in inventive Aquarius is in a harmonius sextile to its ruler Uranus in entrepreneurial Aries. The day is electric. People will be receptive to your new ideas. It’s a fast-paced, upbeat day. You may meet new people (Aquarius rules friendship), start new projects, or create something new. The energy is ripe for getting projects off the ground. If you have meetings today, they should go well, with new ideas for moving things forward coming out of the blue. Venus (Desire) and Pluto (transformation) are still in Capricorn so your ideas or plans may actually have a chance to make it to the finish line. Science and technology stocks could do well today. Nasdaq should be up.
On January 30th, the electric energy we’ve been experiencing over the last week or so keeps moving into a New moon in futuristic Aquarius. The New Moon is square to Uranus in Aries. Venus and Pluto are sitting together in Capricorn opposing Jupiter in Cancer. What does this all mean? We may be anxious to start something new but we’re spooked by unexpected news. We may end up trying to protect our positions rather than spring into our new plans.
The markets could be volatile with tech stocks taking a whack. Money may flow to safe corporate bonds/stocks where prices will get bloated. The volatility may be the result of news coming out, perhaps from government regarding future plans or something completely unexpected from left field that doesn’t sit well with investors.
On January 31st, Venus in Capricorn goes Direct. It’s been in retrograde motion since December 21st. Venus rules our desires, money and relationships. When Venus is in Capricorn, it may have more to do with business or committed relationships. If you were thinking about making a relationship move—getting into or out of one, after January 31st would be a better time to commit—funds or hearts. While Venus is in retrograde, it’s a better time to plan, investigate and review rather then commit. If you do, you may end up trying to unwind your position when it goes direct. Jupiter in Cancer is opposite Pluto in Capricorn-Direct today. We may have seen some volatility in government positions that contributed to volatility in the stock market over the last week.
