January 2019 Horoscopes

Aries

It’s a successful month but health needs watching. One of the problems is that Mars will be in your own sign all month. This could lead you to over stress the body when you should be resting. There is a tendency to be overly optimistic about the body - a tendency to push it too far, too fast. Your year starts off with a bang. There are two eclipses this month. This is going to shake things up in the world and in your life. Of the two, the Solar Eclipse of the 5th (in Europe and Asia it’s on the 6th) is much stronger on you so take it nice and easy. It occurs in your 10th House of career showing changes and shakeups there. In your case it seems to help. It could open career doors that were formerly closed. It brings shakeups in your company - the hierarchy and management - and in your industry. There are dramas in the lives of bosses, parents, parent figures and authority figures in your life. Every Solar Eclipse impacts on your children and children figures in your life and this one is no different. They too should take a nice, easy schedule. The Lunar Eclipse of the 21st also impacts on the children (and children figures). It occurs in your 5th House. They are redefining themselves - their self-concept, image and personality. Basically, a healthy thing, but the events of the eclipse force the issue. Every Lunar Eclipse impacts on the home and family and this one will too. Passions run high at home so be more patient with family members. If there are hidden flaws in the home this is when you find out about them so that you can make corrections.

Taurus

Two eclipses this month impact on the home and family. So, there is a need for more patience with family members. There are dramas in the lives of family members (and a parent or parent figure). Repairs might be needed in the home as well. The Solar Eclipse of the 5th is relatively kind to you, but it won’t hurt to take a reduced schedule anyway. It might not be so kind to the people around you. It occurs in your 9th House and thus impacts on college level students and those entering college. There are shakeups in educational plans and perhaps shakeups in the school. There is instability in your place of worship and in the lives of your minister, rabbi, priest or imam. Your personal religion and philosophical beliefs are getting tested and some might have to be discarded or modified. This will go on for another 6 months. Avoid foreign travel during the eclipse period. If you must travel schedule around the eclipse. The Lunar Eclipse of the 21st is stronger on you. (It is a “super eclipse” that happens with the Moon in perigee, her closest distance to earth.) Those born early in the sign of Taurus (April 20-22) will feel this the strongest, but all of you will feel it to some degree. It occurs in your 4th House of home and family which we discussed. This eclipse also impacts on students, but here it involves students below the college level. There can be a change of schools or some disruption at school. A good idea to drive more defensively that period. Cars and communication equipment will get tested and often need to be repaired or replaced.

Gemini 

The Solar Eclipse of the 5th not only occurs in your 8th House but impacts on the Lord of the 8th House, Saturn. So, take it nice and easy that period. Avoid elective kinds of surgeries this period. This eclipse brings important financial changes to the spouse, partner or current love. It can bring encounters with death or near-death kinds of experiences - these are usually on the psychological level. Often people have dreams of death. The purpose here is to get you to a deeper understanding of it. Fear of death is one of the main reasons people are not living at their highest potential. Sometimes it is a reminder - a gentle reminder - that life is short, and we should be about the business that we were born to do. The Lunar Eclipse of the 21st is a powerful one - but milder on you personally. But keep in mind that if it hits a sensitive point in your personal Horoscope it can affect you deeply. This eclipse occurs in your 3rd House and affects cars and communication equipment. They get tested and often repairs are needed. Drive more carefully this period. Students below the college level are impacted too. There are changes in educational plans. Every Lunar Eclipse impacts on your finances and causes a “re-direction” - a course correction in the financial life. This one is no different. It is basically health to do this and it happens for you at least twice a year. The events of the eclipse - usually some financial drama or sudden expense – shows what changes need to be made.

Cancer

When the going gets tough, the tough get going. The good thing about challenges is that they show us what we are capable of. We are capable of much more than we think. Also, it is good to remember that we are never given more than we can handle. If it is given, you can handle it. Health is an issue this month - 60% and sometimes 70% of the planets are in stressful alignment with you. This is no joke. And as if this wasn’t enough, we have two eclipses this month - guaranteed to shake things up personally and in the world. Both eclipses impact on finances. So important and dramatic financial changes are happening. In the long run this will be for the better but not so comfortable while they are happening. The Solar Eclipse of the 5th (the 6th in Europe and Asia) occurs in your 7th House and impacts on the Lord of the 7th House, Saturn. So, relationships are getting tested. Usually long repressed grievances come up that need to be resolved. Sometimes there are personal dramas in the life of the beloved. Be more patient with him or her. The Lunar Eclipse of the 21st is also strong on you (you should take an easier schedule all month, but especially around the eclipse periods.) It occurs in your money house and affects finances as was mentioned. But it also impacts on you personally - every Lunar Eclipse does. You need (and will) re-define yourself - yourself concept and image. You will change how you think of yourself and how you want others to see you. This will go on for some more months.

Leo

The two eclipses this month are strong on you personally so be sure to take a reduced - relaxed - schedule those periods. Every Solar Eclipse impacts on you personally - the Sun is your ruling planet. So twice a year you get a chance (with a little boost from the eclipses) to re-define yourself, your image and your self concept. This, over the next few months, will bring wardrobe changes and changes in how you present yourself to others. This eclipse occurs in your 6th House and impacts on the Lord of your 6th House. So, there can be health scares - but since your health looks good, it is not likely to be more than a scare. It brings changes in the health regime and job changes. If you hire others there can be employee turnover. The Lunar Eclipse of the 21st occurs in your own sign - again bringing a need to re-define yourself. Often it will bring a detox of the body - this is not sickness, though sometimes it can feel that way. Every Lunar Eclipse impacts on your spiritual life, on spiritual organizations that you’re involved with and in the lives of guru figures. This one is no different. There are shakeups here. The dream life is likely to be hyper active this period, but don’t pay too much attention and don’t be alarmed. Most likely these are just psychic debris stirred up by the eclipse. On the 20th the Sun moves into your 7th House of love and you begin a yearly love and social peak. Personal popularity is at a high. This will translate into higher earnings as well. Social connections are playing an important role in finance.

Virgo

Health and energy are improving this month. The Lunar Eclipse of the 21st could bring dramas with friends but also brings a nice payday. Finances are wonderful from the 7th onwards. The two eclipses this month don’t impact on you too strongly. But even so, it is good to take a more relaxed schedule. They might not be so kind to the people around you. Both eclipses impact on your spiritual life. So important spiritual changes are happening. Perhaps you change your practice, your teachers and even your path. Often this happens because of interior revelation – a good thing. There will be shakeups in spiritual or charitable organizations that you’re involved with and dramas in the lives of people you consider mentors or gurus. The Solar Eclipse of the 5th (in Europe and Asia it’s on the 6th) occurs in your 5th House and so children and children figures are affected. They should stay out of harm’s way and take an easy schedule that period. They are experiencing dramatic personal changes - often quite normal, but still dramatic. Your taste for what is fun - your taste in entertainment - is changing too. A parent or parent figure makes important financial changes. The Lunar Eclipse of the 21st occurs in your 12th House and we have already discussed this. Every Lunar Eclipse impacts on your friendships, high tech gadgetry, software etc. High tech equipment will get tested this period. Often repair or replacement is needed. Make sure files are safely backed up. Friends are making important financial changes - dramatic ones.

Libra

A challenging and eventful month ahead Libra. You have many obstacles to deal with. Getting through with health and sanity intact (and you will) should be considered success. Health is an issue now. 60% and sometimes 70% of the planets are in stressful alignment with you. So, watch your energy levels. If you can spend more time in a health spa or schedule more massages or other health treatments, it would be wonderful. The two eclipses this month are also strong on you. You should take it easy all month, but especially around the eclipse periods. The Solar Eclipse of the 5th (in Europe and Asia it’s on the 6th) occurs in your 4th House and makes stressful aspects to you. So, family members are impacted here (and especially a parent or parent figure). There are personal dramas in their lives. If there are hidden flaws in the home this is when you find out about them and can take corrective action. Siblings and sibling figures are having a good financial year, but this eclipse forces financial changes. The Lunar Eclipse of the 21st also impacts on a parent or parent figure. But this eclipse seems more career related. There are career changes brewing. There are many ways this happens - there can be shakeups in your corporate hierarchy, dramas in the lives of bosses or people involved in your career, changes in your industry or in government regulations. This eclipse occurs in your spiritual 12th House and will bring spiritual changes as well. Your attitudes, approach, practice, teachings or teachers will change.

Scorpio

The month ahead is basically happy and prosperous, but two eclipses will bring some excitement. Both eclipses impact on your career and the people involved in your career. So important career changes are happening. The Solar Eclipse of the 5th (in Europe and Asia it’s on the 6th) occurs in your 3rd House. This impacts on students below the college level. There can be changes of schools or disruptions in the school. Cars and communication equipment will be tested. If there are hidden flaws there you find out about it now. A good idea to drive more carefully. Siblings and sibling figures, bosses, elders, parents and parent figures have personal dramas - often life changing kinds of dramas. The Lunar Eclipse of the 21st is strong on you – and especially strong on those of you born early in the sign of Scorpio (from October 23-26) - but all of you will feel it. Take a nice relaxed schedule that period. Unnecessary foreign travel should be avoided. This eclipse affects college level or college bound students. There are changes in the educational plans. Sometimes they change schools, sometimes they change majors. And, since it occurs in your 10th House, there are changes in the career. This Lunar Eclipse seems good for love and money though. Singles are meeting someone special (and this too fits in with eclipse symbology - not all shakeups are bad.) There can be opportunities for a business kind of partnership too. Perhaps a joint venture. Health needs more watching after the 20th, but you seem to be on the case - focused here.

Sagittarius

Though we have two eclipses this month, they seem kind to you. The month ahead is basically happy and prosperous. (If these eclipses hit something in your personal birth chart though, they can be strong indeed.) The Solar Eclipse of the 5th (In Europe and Asia it’s on the 6th) brings dramatic financial changes. It occurs in the money house and impacts on the Lord of the money house. Your financial strategy needs to change. Financial thinking hasn’t been realistic, as the events of the eclipse will show and needs modification. There are dramas in the lives of the money people in your life as well. You’re a traveler by nature but avoid unnecessary foreign travel this period. Students at the college level are changing educational plans. There are shakeups in your place of worship too. The Lunar Eclipse of the 21st though powerful in its own right, doesn’t impact on you too strongly. It occurs in your 9th House and once again impacts on college level students, your place of worship and the worship leaders in your life. Again, avoid unnecessary foreign travel this period. This eclipse affects the finances of the spouse, partner or current love. He or she too needs to adjust the financial thinking and strategy. The Lunar Eclipse period seems happy for you personally. It brings a happy romantic interest for singles (not anything serious, just fun) and financial increase. Be more patient with the beloved on the 13th and 14th. For singles romantic opportunities happen as you pursue your financial goals and perhaps with people involved in your finances. The current love seems financially supportive - active in your financial life.

Capricorn

Two eclipses this month impact on the finances of the spouse, partner or current love. He or she needs to make important changes - the financial thinking is shown to be unrealistic. Your personal finances will be good especially after the 20th as you begin a yearly financial peak. The Solar Eclipse of the 5th (in Europe and Asia it’s on the 6th) is very strong on you, so take a nice easy schedule that period. Do what’s necessary, but elective things can be re-scheduled. Spend more quiet time at home. This eclipse not only occurs in your sign but also on the Lord of your Horoscope, Saturn. So, there can be detoxes of the body - especially if you haven’t been careful in dietary matters - and a need to redefine yourself for yourself - to upgrade your thinking about yourself. Often people are spreading slander about you and you need to re-define yourself. If you don’t others will do it and it won’t be so pleasant. Basically, this is healthy, but now it is forced on you by the eclipse. This eclipse (and the next one too) brings encounters – generally psychological encounters - with death. The thousand eyed angel is sending a message – stop wasting time on trivialities - focus on the reason you were born. Life is short and can end at any time. Get down to business. Your mission in life. The Lunar Eclipse of the 21st brings similar encounters. It will also test your current relationship. Often, it’s not your fault or the fault of the relationship - the beloved is having personal dramas. But equally often it will bring up long repressed grievances so that they can be dealt with.

Aquarius

Though the love life is happy this month - especially after the 20th - two eclipses will stress test it. It is only through these kinds of stress tests that we know whether love is real or not. And even when it is real, we learn how deep it goes. Good relationships generally survive these things, but flawed ones become vulnerable. The Solar Eclipse of the 5th occurs in your 12th House of spirituality. So, there will be spiritual changes happening - changes in your practice, teachings, perhaps teachers and attitudes. Guru figures in your life have personal dramas. There are shakeups in charitable and spiritual organizations that you’re involved with. Friends are making important financial changes. The Lunar Eclipse of the 21st seems much stronger on you. All of you will feel it but especially those of you born early in the sign - from January 20-23. This eclipse is a “monster” - some call it a super eclipse. It occurs with the Moon in perigee - her closest distance to earth – and thus its effects are magnified. (It is also a total eclipse.) So, take it nice and easy that period. It occurs in your 7th House of love and again tests your current relationship. But it also brings job changes, disruptions at the work place, changes in the conditions of work and changes in your health regime – you will see this over the next few months. Sometimes it brings health scares – but your health is good, and they are not likely to be more than scares. If you employ others there can be employee turnover and dramas in the lives of employees.

Pisces

The two eclipses this month are basically benign to you, but if they hit something sensitive in your personal chart (cast specifically for you) they can be powerful indeed. Both eclipses are impacting on health and the job. Big changes going on there. There can be a health scare and a need to change your health regime. There can be disturbances at your place of work and changes in the conditions of work. These will probably be positive since your career is good. If you employ others there can be employee turnover. This might not be your fault, but because of dramas in their lives. The Solar Eclipse of the 5th occurs in your 11th House and tests friendships – often because of life changing dramas in their lives. Computer and high-tech gadgetry will probably be more erratic. Often repairs or replacement is necessary. Make sure important files are back up. The Lunar Eclipse of the 21st is a “super eclipse” - unusually powerful. It occurs with the Moon in perigee - her closest distance to earth. Happily, it doesn’t impact on you personally (but your personal chart can modify this). This impacts more on your children (or the children figures in your life) - they should take a nice easy schedule and stay out of harm’s way. They are forced to make very important financial changes. They will be re-defining themselves - re-thinking who they are and how they want others to see them. This will go on for a few more months. There will be important changes in your leisure and creative activities. Your taste in fun and entertainment will change
