January 2019 Astrology

Change and Opportunity mark the major themes after three years of legitimate stagnated energy. Mars, the planet that rules drive and motivation moves into the very beginning of Aries as the month begins. Things will be done with a quick, large, impulsive, and pioneering energy.

This month also contains a partial solar eclipse and a total lunar eclipse which also occurs over the full moon. Eclipse energy propels a domino effect helping move your life over the next sixth months and truly, throughout the year. January 2019 is TRULY a new year.

The first week has five major planets sitting in Capricorn with the particle Solar Eclipse. The energy will feel serious and conservative. Capricorn deals with integrity, reservations, traditions, discipline, reliability and obligations. It is an excellent time for business.

The Sun moves from Capricorn to Aquarius on January 21 where we also have a full moon and a total lunar eclipse. It can be seen just after the moon rises close to 8pm, it will appear red in the sky. Expect the unexpected! There is a certain level of enthusiasm, uncertainty and opportunity. Adaptability and open-mindedness are recommended. Leo energy is characterized by generosity, confidence, exuberance and radiance. Pay attention to your thoughts and communications. It will be interesting, perhaps even illuminating.

Aries
You are bold and ready for action. Your energy will be extra fired up to get things done, you will also be extra impatient. Initiation is your forte, you are the pioneer of the Zodiac and work matters, business ideas and projects are greatly enhanced. Go for it.

Taurus
Change and uncertainty mark the beginning of 2019 for you and this will feel uncomfortable. You are a slow and steady sign, not quick to change and dislike feeling change or anything for that matter, too quickly. Anxiety may be felt. Adaptability is the mark of life- the only thing that is certain is change. Breathe.

Gemini
A month of harmony and contentment. Your personal relationships are thriving, you can see both sides of the story and work and diligent direction are prominent. Some anxiety could be felt near the full moon as the Total Lunar Eclipse aspects your ruling sign, Mercury. Be careful with your words around this time.

Libra
An inner balance, contentment and harmony are felt for you all month. You feel strong enough to take some active momentum towards your wants and dreams.
