Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:

Aries
Aries
Aries
With the Sun’s harmonious transits today, you appreciate steady progress, dear Aries, and others appreciate your common sense. At the same time, you’re seeking ways to innovate. You have good advice on offer, and it’s based on your experience. You want to take concrete steps to meet your goals or strengthen your position. Business matters are in favor, and the work you did in the past or behind the scenes can come in handy. It’s a fine time to apply your inner wisdom and experience, and feel particularly proud of yourself and your accomplishments. Taking care of old business or tying up loose ends makes sense now, and it can be freeing. A Sun-Uranus influence inspires you to look forward. It could bring a pleasant surprise related to your work, long-term goals, or finances. You might acquire a new item or discover a method that enhances your life. It’s an excellent time to take the lead or set the trend. Getting over a fear can be empowering today. While you’re in a problem-solving frame of mind, you’re disinclined to dwell.

Taurus
Taurus
Taurus
You find it natural to focus on your practical priorities today, dear Taurus, but you’re also ready to make improvements and changes if they make sense. It’s a time to consider what’s best for you in the long run and take action that benefits you and your future self! While the Sun continues to transit an outgoing sector of your solar chart, its harmony with Saturn moderates you–you’re taking things slowly but surely. You might find the motivation to work on a meaningful project or take care of practical matters that strengthen or improve your life in small but measurable ways. Patience is easier to muster up under this transit, and it benefits you greatly. It’s also a good time to come across wise advice. The Sun also harmonizes with Uranus, currently transiting your sign, and a good part of your wants to put something behind you and look to new horizons. A strong urge to rid yourself of restrictions, particularly in your mind or attitude, can motivate you to take charge. You may be excited about new projects or interests, or about old ones you are ready to push forward. Look for opportunities to publish, promote, share, and learn. You’re expressing yourself most naturally, and others appreciate your input.

Gemini
Gemini
Gemini
Transits today help you see the value of preparation and foresight, dear Gemini, but they also encourage you to innovate. Your ambition is stirring in a pleasant, motivating way, prompting you to concentrate on practical details that need your attention. You’re thinking about the long term instead of seeking instant gratification. There can be a happy focus on a special task, and you can be in a great position to secure or organize an area of your life. You may want to break through barriers in some way, or you may be ready to put a problem behind you. You could find yourself naturally detaching yourself from some elements of the past today that help you move ahead. Even if it’s only symbolic, you want to move on regarding an emotional state or frame of mind, and it’s a good time to do so. There can be a bonus received now, either material or emotional, that seems to come up out of the blue.

Cancer
Cancer
Cancer
Today’s Sun transits are strong for improvements to relationships, pairing up to accomplish something productive, and an improved outlook, dear Cancer. You’re likely to feel good and accomplished about a commitment to someone or a project. Positive gestures and actions you take now have a tangible impact on your future. It’s an excellent time to take on tasks you might put off on another day, as you have a strong sense of responsibility now. The Sun is currently transiting your partnership sector, highlighting your need for companionship or balance and harmony. With it in harmonious aspect with both Saturn and Uranus, you’re in good shape for steadying a relationship while also keeping things exciting and forward-looking. Simple and sincere gestures win favor today. If you’ve experienced any anxiety about a situation recently, it’s easier to move past it now. You may see a new side to a person or situation, and someone could see you in a new, more positive light.

Leo
Leo
Leo
The Sun is currently encouraging a focus on the nuts and bolts of your life, dear Leo, and it makes some supportive aspects today. Its connection to responsible, disciplined Saturn positions you well to focus on self-development. Aim to lay the groundwork for future success for the best results. It’s a perfect time to further health and work goals, but a slow-but-sure approach is preferable as you keep your eye on what can be updated or remade. Getting on top of the little things in your life can significantly improve your confidence and general outlook. When you’re not procrastinating and avoiding things, you feel more in control. Fortunately, your routines and practices are more engaging. A plan for better health and habits can come together, and it comes more naturally to pace yourself and learn from mistakes. Issues not under your control at the moment don’t faze you so much now. You can suddenly have all the right tools — or the mindset — to handle a matter. The desire is to move past problem areas or situations that hold you back from realizing your potential.

Virgo
Virgo
Virgo
You can find it easier than usual to accept your responsibilities today, dear Virgo, but you’re also ready to mix things up a little as you keep your eye on what you want to improve. Breaking the routine, even in small ways, can be satisfying. You can be in the mood to organize an area of your life or otherwise find ways to make a relationship, project, or situation work for you. You’re in a more playful cycle in your solar year, but this doesn’t stop you from making tangible progress and getting things done! You’re willing to work hard towards a goal, even if it’s a long-term one. At the same time, you’re not rushing things, and a moderate pace makes sense. You are happy to commit yourself to a task or even a person, and you can get a nice sense of coming together or mutual understanding with someone important to you. While others’ demands on your time remain strong, the added responsibility doesn’t feel heavy today. You might suddenly want to put something behind you or pull yourself out of a rut, especially on romantic, recreational, educational, or creative levels. You’re in a great position to reform, update, upgrade, or come up with new ideas. You readily find reasons to be confident about pursuing a personal interest, creative endeavor, or a relationship. If there was a recent disappointment, you’re now feeling far more optimistic about the future.

Libra
Libra
Libra
You feel great about taking charge or getting organized today, dear Libra, and there can be small but solid advances in improving home life, family, or work. You can be working harder to find peace with those closest to you or to make physical improvements to your home or work environment. You take more pride in the functionality of these areas of life. You might decide it’s best to put some order in your daily affairs before moving your bigger plans ahead. There is great value in a careful approach to life now, and fortunately, you’re also opening your mind to new or different ways to get things done. Organizing, editing, and rearranging are in favor. It’s a fine time to apply yourself to the practical details that hold your life together. Your attention span is more extended, and long-term satisfaction can be a goal. You can detach a little from your fears and insecurities just enough to enjoy yourself more. Good energy is with you for pushing beyond self-imposed limits and barriers. Today can also be a time when you or someone you love opens up about a private matter with liberating results.

Scorpio
Scorpio
Scorpio
With the Sun in your communications sector these days, dear Scorpio, you’re picking up a variety of information. With the Sun’s special connections today, you’re ready to apply it! A good talk can be part of the picture, strengthening a bond. You’re more likely to gravitate to stability, steadiness, and effort. You could make a verbal promise or commitment, or you’re more ambitious and willing to put in the effort to achieve a long-term goal. You see the value of improving your life on emotional, mental, and physical levels. Being responsible feels good today! At the same time, you’re ready to mix things up or innovate if it makes sense. Favored now are activities that involve strengthening, organizing, building, and stabilizing. There can be unexpected kindnesses or pleasant surprises. It’s a good day to reach out, check in with others, or extend simple gestures that show you care.

Sagittarius
Sagittarius
Sagittarius
You can feel you’re on the right road today, dear Sagittarius, and if you’re uncomfortable with an aspect of your life, you’re ready to make improvements. Today’s Sun transits are realistic and practical, and you can feel grounded, but they’re also forward-looking and innovative. You’re paying special attention to long-term goals and benefits. Activities that remind you of the simple pleasures in life are in high favor. Seek ways to strengthen or stabilize your finances, valuables, or home through maintenance or upkeep for the best results. You have the attitude that if you take care of your things, they will take care of you. You may decide to let something go or make minor changes so that you enjoy increased freedom. Doing something innovative or reformative with your money, work, and routines is attractive. It’s also an excellent time to detach yourself from a bothersome issue and get over it so that you can move on! Alternative healing methods can be a draw, or you might discover new ideas about approaching your health and wellness that liberate you from practices that haven’t been working for you.

Capricorn
Capricorn
Capricorn
Common sense is with you in scores today, dear Capricorn, and you’re ready to make improvements. Seek ways to empower yourself through activities that improve and strengthen your life and your future–if they don’t find you first! The Sun in your sign connects favorably with Saturn in your communications sector and Uranus in your creative sector, and you might enjoy good advice, practical news, and useful conversations. You appreciate small accomplishments today. Applying yourself to mental and learning pursuits can bring rewards down the road. Studies, training, and skills development can be in positive focus. You stand out for your unique point of view, and it’s natural to detach at just the right times today to enjoy yourself more thoroughly. You could feel freer to express yourself, and you’re more willing to share your affections or ideas. Unique or different hobbies, pastimes, and recreational activities are appealing to you in your current frame of mind — you want to branch out. Instead, you might enjoy breathing new life into current projects or relationships. On this day before a New Moon in your sign, it’s a powerful time to rid yourself of outworn attitudes that weighed you down or prevented a fresh start.

Aquarius
Aquarius
Aquarius
With today’s harmonious Sun transits, you enjoy a moderate pace while staying alert to things you can reform or change, dear Aquarius. It’s a good time to work on strengthening your life in small but satisfying ways. It can be a time when you get something done behind the scenes, helping you regroup and renew your spirit. Having some time to yourself can be particularly helpful and grounding as you get in better touch with your needs. You prefer to focus on worthwhile pursuits today — you’re looking for reliable results. You might see more pieces to a puzzle, improving your judgment and decisions. You’re also in an excellent position to tie up loose ends, get closure, or resolve a long-term problem, which can do wonders for your well-being. You can feel a strong desire to break free from certain restrictions or get over a hurdle, and tomorrow’s New Moon will further help you with this. You might consider ways to improve your living space, situation, or conditions, as you now see opportunities. It’s a beautiful time for putting a negative element of your life behind you. Bravery and confidence build and rise as you sense you’re moving past something, or you free yourself of an energy-draining habit. Giving support or help can be rewarding.

Pisces
Pisces
Pisces
The Sun harmonizes with Saturn in your sign today, dear Pisces, and this happens not long before Saturn will leave Pisces. Your focus on your social and humanitarian or personal happiness goals is a little more serious or earnest than usual. It’s a good day to consider your longer-term plans and take steps to secure or strengthen them. Friends or group connections can be supportive, and the practical side of your relationships is in the spotlight. Working solidly towards personal happiness or group goals can be fruitful and fulfilling. This aspect particularly favors efforts to stabilize, strengthen, commit, build, and maintain. But you also have the Sun in harmony with Uranus today, and a bit of change can be good for you today, in small doses. You might find yourself in a fine position for improvement in friendships, projects, groups, and long-term dreams. There could be good news or encouraging, inspiring conversations that inspire your desire to turn over a new leaf, and tomorrow’s New Moon will help push this along further. Where you may have been tolerating problems, you now want to either resolve them or move on from them.

We can be cautious, practical, and possibly unimaginative. We are deliberate and can pace ourselves well. We need hands-on experience and are not impressed with theory as much as we are with results. Routines are tolerable and comforting.

Moon is less than 45 degrees behind the Sun.

Time to tie up loose ends, review, reflect, let go, and edit.

 

Planetary Positions and their Applying & Separating Aspects

 

The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EST) on January 17th:

Note that when an aspect is applying, it has not yet happened but is within orb – it’s pending. Conversely, when an aspect is separating, it has already happened/perfected and is moving away from the aspect. As such, 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 the Moon 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 involving inner planets 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 involving inner planets, which pass quickly, and not natal astrology aspects, which are with us for a lifetime).

We’re bringing progressive ideas to the world of business. New ways of doing business, as well as making, viewing, and handling money are likely. Income and the energy we put into making money can be variable. (May 15, 2018, to November 6, 2018, then March 6, 2019, to July 7, 2025, and then November 7, 2025, to April 25, 2026).

PLUTO IN AQUARIUS

(1777 – 1799) It is important to note that Pluto takes about 248 years to make a complete cycle, spending 12 to 32 years in each sign. Therefore the interpretation of Pluto in its sign applies to a generation rather than the individual. This is the generation of worldwide co-operation. People in this generation have the ability to make scientific breakthroughs for the benefit of humanity, and may be forced to change the way science is viewed. (Pluto is in Aquarius from March 23rd to June 11th, 2023, from January 20th to September 1st, 2024; from November 19th, 2024, to March 8th, 2043, and from August 31st, 2043, to January 19th, 2044).
