Horoscopes
Aries
You’re naturally brave and full of life today, dear Aries, but there is also a retiring, quiet side to you as you come to the end of a lunar cycle and need some time to recoup. Small, satisfying advances can be made in your work, but the general mood today inspires attention to your inner world, fantasies, and dreams. Look for healthy escapes now, as you’re in need of some emotional refreshment. You might share a private matter with someone and feel good about releasing the pressure.
Taurus
You’re feeling positive and confident today, dear Taurus. You can get a boost from sharing ideas with others or supporting a friend. Be sure to add creative and imaginative pursuits to your day for a healthy escape from the regular routine. You are seeking satisfaction and comfort from your social life, and exchanging information can be rewarding. Emotional freedom to be yourself without obligations is a need now with the Moon in your solar eleventh house all day.
Gemini
You’re a little more ambitious or formal today than usual, dear Gemini, with the Moon at the top of your solar chart all day. You might be in a position of leader or manager, or otherwise in a noticeable situation – in the spotlight – which can keep you on your toes. You’re motivated to do your best now. It’s a good time for gaining support, whether it’s material or emotional. Consider ways to add more imagination to your work or duties for best results today. The Moon in Pisces fairly demands some respite from dull routines.
Cancer
Feed your need for fantasy and inspiration today, dear Cancer. You’re craving a little more excitement now with the Moon in your adventure sector all day. You also want to have a strong sense that you’re growing, learning, and improving. You simply won’t accept stagnation right now. Rallying up the cooperation of others is relatively easy today, although you’re likely to find as the day progresses that people are a little rebellious, even about their own plans! Keep things fresh for best results.
Leo
You’re in a great position to observe, plan, and strategize today, dear Leo. You are paying more attention to your intuition instead of over-thinking things, and you can have excellent insight into your work and health matters again today. You’re not quite as close to a situation so that you can get a better perspective on it now. It’s an excellent time for coming up with new ideas about improving health or pursuing health goals, as well as discovering improved methods for getting your work and duties done more efficiently and satisfyingly.
Virgo
This is a potentially creative day, dear Virgo, and you’re likely to shine the brightest if you get things done with someone special. The Moon is in your partnership sector all day, suggesting that having company helps you get in better touch with your own feelings and ideas. You’re also in good stead with people in general – others are appreciating your personal style and intellectual stamina. This is a good time to open up communications with someone you care about. Good advice is circulating, and you’re particularly able to cut through the unessential and get to the good stuff.
Libra
This may not be the most glamorous of days, dear Libra, but it’s an excellent time for getting organized. Following a schedule may not always be your forte these days, but it can be useful now with your increasing ambitions and full “to do” list. Smooth and flowing daily routines will ultimately help you achieve your goals. Your relationships are beginning to really heat up, and while there can be ups and downs in the process, you can benefit from a clear head that comes after the details of your life have been handled.
Scorpio
January has been one of the more creative months of the year for you, dear Scorpio. Your focus is shifting towards work, routine, and health matters going into February. However, with the Moon in your creative and romantic sector all day today, you’re getting the chance to enjoy yourself thoroughly as January moves to a close. You need to allow yourself to dream, create, fantasize, and imagine now as the Moon and Neptune come together this morning, inspiring you to imagine new possibilities. Later today, you’re in an excellent position to communicate your feelings or to persuade and delight with what you say.
Sagittarius
You’re moving into a creative, romantic cycle, dear Sagittarius, but for now, you need a little more time to center yourself and get your bearings. Today is excellent for just that. While it may not be the most exciting of days, you can bring quite a bit of whimsy and imagination to your personal life now. Your thinking about money, business, and family matters is very strategic and clever. Discussions with family can be useful. While you tend to enjoy being on the move, today is better for nesting.
Capricorn
This is a great day for dabbling and putting your feelers out for new information, dear Capricorn. At first glance, this may not seem very productive, but it’s actually a useful interlude in the lunar cycle. Even mindless chatting can serve a purpose now – either it can lead you to wonderful discoveries and ideas, or it relaxes you and gives you a break from heavy thinking. Your curiosity is big today, and this may drive you to get out and about. Sharing ideas and anecdotes with others can fill an emotional need now. You may very well become inspired by something that’s said.
Aquarius
Your imagination for making money or improving your practical affairs is in full force this morning, dear Aquarius, and your instincts for what should stay and what should go are excellent. This is a good day for considering improvements to your practical affairs. You may want to prove to yourself just how much you can accomplish on your own. Emotionally speaking, you are not particularly forthcoming, and you may not be very quick to share your thoughts. This is temporary due to a need for more time than usual to understand how you truly feel.
Pisces
You are willing to strike out on your own or express yourself first today, dear Pisces. People are putting their trust in you, and this, in turn, motivates you to do your best. With the Moon in your sign all day (and until tomorrow afternoon), the general tone of the day feels just right for expressing yourself naturally. You’re not necessarily more emotional than usual, but you’re certainly more in touch with what you’re feeling. Conversations with friends or ideas shared with a team or group can be supportive.

There can be conflicting drives to push forward and be progressive, or to stick with what has worked in the past.
Strong Signs, Elements, Modes

CAPRICORN STRONG
Disciplined, responsible, reliable, industrious, conscientious, practical, achieving. Can be pessimistic, overly conventional, rigid, materialistic, callous.

Humanitarian, innovative, group conscious, progressive, serving others. Can be rebellious, eccentric, aloof, emotionally superficial, overly extroverted.

LUNAR PHASE: NEW MOON
Moon 0 to 45 degrees ahead of the Sun.
This is an energetic, impulsive, and subjective period of time. We are looking for new projects and opportunities.
The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EST) on January 30th:
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 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).
