Horoscopes
Aries
Your practical vision is strong today, dear Aries. As long as something has purpose, you’re drawn to it now, particularly communications, such as writing, teaching, sharing, and speaking. People are more inclined to listen to what you have to say and to take you seriously, especially those in authority. You could feel a stronger sense of personal purpose through the support and backing of someone important to you.
Taurus
This is a strong day for applying logical thinking to a problem, dear Taurus, and for filling your responsibilities quite happily. Purposeful action draws you in today. There may be a desire or need to defend a friend. It’s a good time to make proposals on a professional level, and an easy time for sharing ideas and belief systems with a partner. Your idealistic side is strong when it comes to relating.
Gemini
This is a good time to take the lead when it comes to work or daily affairs and get to the bottom of a matter, dear Gemini. Let others know that you have your limits, however, because people may be leaning on to you, largely because you are projecting a stronger, more competent aura. This is a good day for pacing yourself or getting yourself back on track if you’ve recently had stressful days.
Cancer
It’s a strong time to focus your attention on practical matters, even though social ones are soothing as well today, dear Cancer. You can be quite fearless about taking action on issues that have been swept under the carpet, and your organizational skills are improved today. There are rewards now for being patient, realistic, and practical. You are better able to see things for what they are – not through the veil of wishful thinking or through the veil of fear. This helps you to make stronger decisions.
Leo
When it comes to making decisions, you are inclined to want to make them on your own, dear Leo, but a fuller picture can be seen through the input of a significant other. In fact, you’re likely to have helpful conversations now. We tend to be in clearer frames of mind today, and you can feel a stronger sense of purpose as you apply it to problems or work/tasks that can benefit from orderly, practical thinking.
Virgo
There is a frustrating form of “busy” and a positive kind, and today you’re likely to experience the latter. It’s a potentially very productive, flowing day for you, dear Virgo. Others tend to be listening to what you have to say and following your advice. You may also recognize the truth in the idea that improved listening skills leads to improved communications all around. Clear thinking on work and health matters can also benefit you now.
Libra
You may be able to give form to recent ideas today, dear Libra, and quite creatively to boot! However, you’re also seeing things quite realistically, so that practical affairs can benefit. Good energy is with you for researching and gathering facts about an endeavor. You are more able to concentrate, and you are drawn to purposeful activities and information. There is a tendency today to get right to the point, and you should take advantage of this mindset to take care of business or get going on a project.
Scorpio
You may be recognized in a positive way for what you do, your intelligence, or what you’ve done in the past, dear Scorpio. Decisions about or with family and home life can be made now, and they’re especially practical and helpful. You are focused on matters of security and safety, as well as on the longer term and larger plan. With Saturn now in your financial sector, you’re seeing the need for organization and moderation with your resources, and today, you’re in the right frame of mind to get started on it.
Sagittarius
With the Moon not quite in your sign just yet (it will enter Sagittarius early tomorrow), you’re likely quite content to be in the background today, dear Sagittarius, but you can do so quite productively. In fact, it’s a fine day for taking care of paperwork, errands, and communications that you’ve let slide or put off. Your focus is practical, and this is especially important with Saturn now in your sign, demanding a little more maturity and responsibility from you.
Capricorn
After a rather rocky or insecure early start to the day, you come into your own, dear Capricorn. You’re in a strong frame of mind for financial planning, business matters, investing, and otherwise tending to your practical goals and affairs today. Socially, you are emotionally detached enough to feel more at ease with others. Communications with associates, teams, and elders or authority figures are helpful and purposeful right now. Others may turn to you for advice or counsel.
Aquarius
After a potentially challenging or insecure morning, dear Aquarius, perceptions come back down to earth, and you could give out some very good advice. We are moving from a feeling of resentment about others’ input or advice to a more humble, helpful, and cooperative state of mind. It’s a good time for you to present ideas or proposals, as you’re more orderly and mature in your communications, but your cleverness and creativity are also obvious.
Pisces
You can readily draw upon past experiences and your own inner wisdom to make good long-range decisions today, dear Pisces. It’s an excellent time for cutting through appearances and uncovering something previously unknown or hidden. There can be much satisfaction about getting to the heart of matter and for seeing things for what they are, not only as you’d like them to be. Expectations are down to earth, allowing you to focus on what truly matters, and simplifying life.

Event: Moon in Scorpio
Description: The Moon in Scorpio
Contemplate the deeper things in life. Avoid unnecessary conflict, but if it’s going to improve your life, go ahead and make waves. Tune in to your intuition. This is a good time for investigations, looking into a matter further, doing research, connecting to others with a shared passion, solving a mystery, and devising a strategy. When the Moon in Scorpio is strained, we may take our passions too far.

Description: Transiting Moon Square Transiting Jupiter
We may not be very realistic right now – there can be some exaggeration. Minor annoyances are possible now. Contrariness or disagreements. This is not an ideal time for publicity, promotion, or legal matters. We can experience injustices. We are less inclined to consider the consequences of over-eating, over-drinking, or overdoing in general. This is a time to show some restraint. Grandiosity is not appreciated right now, and excess doesn’t go over well either. With a little self-control we can learn about what truly makes us happy.

We are more able to make sacrifices or put our emotions aside in order to get something important done. Alternatively, we can bring more sensitivity to our practical affairs. This can be a good time to commit fully to something – especially health and healing matters. It’s also a strong time for taking care of domestic matters.

We have strong beliefs and are likely to put them into action. We have the wisdom to know when to act, but sometimes can be inflexible.
The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EST) on January 15th:
Note that when an aspect is Applying, it has not yet happened but is within orb – it’s pending. When an aspect is Separating, it has already happened/perfected and is moving away from the aspect. Depending on the speed of the planet/body involved, the aspect will have perfected, or will perfect, in a matter of hours (often the case with the Moon), days, months, and possibly years in the case of the very slow-moving outer planets and bodies.
Note that the Moon moves at a rate of approximately one degree every 2 hours, so that if an aspect involving is applying and has an orb of 5 degrees, the aspect will perfect (be exact) in about 10 hours. If the Moon is separating from an aspect with an orb of 2 degrees, it has already formed said aspect approximately 4 hours ago (since the following are positions at noon today, then it would have occurred at about 8 AM today).
**I suggest paying close attention to applying aspects. The energy of the aspect builds as it gets closer to exact. Once an aspect has happened, it’s over. Separating aspects are good to know for context, but in terms of energy that is with us today, applying aspects are most important. (This is the case for daily astrology influences, which pass quickly, and not natal astrology aspects, which are with us for a life time).
