Horoscopes
Aries

The day is generally quite warm and friendly, dear Aries. Your ability to pick up on the subtlest of cues in your environment enhances your knowledge and decisions. Speaking and writing are strong right now. Good humor and interesting ideas attract others. There can be an agreement made with someone close to you, and you might be able to get the support and backing you need. While the Moon in your resources sector does incline you to be business-minded today, this is a potentially excellent idea and conversation day.
Taurus

Your outlook is bright today, dear Taurus. Sharing ideas with someone can be exceptionally pleasant and possibly quite educational or mind-opening. You are communicating with more persuasiveness, enthusiasm, and optimism, and people are drawn to your openness. There might also be good news arriving now about — or through – a close relationship. Pairing up with someone can produce excellent ideas or strategies. Ideas for future growth and happiness can be inspiring now. The Moon spends the day in your sign, and it’s a time of livelier emotions.
Gemini

Your mind may be working like that of a detective today, dear Gemini, uncovering information and analyzing motives. Employing strategy is natural and beneficial today, particularly in your work or if you are investigating health alternatives. Thinking about shared resources and finances, or negotiations involving them, could also figure strongly today. Your confidence in yourself will help get things going. Efforts put forth now can somehow leave you with more energy, fueled by enthusiasm. It’s a good day for coming to agreements, and simply agreeing and feeling stronger for it. Thoughts and strategies about shared resources and finances, or negotiations involving these things, could also figure strongly today. The Moon spends the day in your privacy sector, pointing to some need to step back and observe rather than pushing ahead.
Cancer

There can be conversations with — or attractions to — intelligent people with whom you can communicate well and exchange ideas again today, dear Cancer. Wonderfully comfortable energy is with you for expressing your more charming and creative side. You are able to improvise today and find a receptive audience to your ideas or plans. You’re in a good position for negotiations, mutual agreements, and business decisions, as well. Think in bigger terms than usual if only to stretch your mind to entertain more possibilities. The Moon spends the day in your friendship sector, further reinforcing the positive social atmosphere of your day.
Leo

There is more optimism in your exchanges and interactions today, dear Leo. Accept support and help graciously, as it’s likely to be sincere. List-making, organizing, and analyzing figure strongly now, particularly revolving around your bigger, more long-term plans. This can excite you and turn your attention to higher, happier thoughts. You can be filled with good creative ideas. There may be a new avenue of communication that opens up with someone special. Again today, you’re in good shape for thoughts and decisions related to your work, home, health, or family. It’s important to stretch your imagination to come up with new possibilities now. The Moon spends the day at the top of your solar chart, and you’re in a business-y frame of mind. Filling responsibilities feels good today.
Virgo

Continuing today, you’re in a great position to gain perspective on a matter, dear Virgo, particularly related to a relationship or project. You can be especially proud of your ideas and good at expressing them. This is a potentially strong day for personal appeal and magnetism, particularly when you are in a serving or helping mode. Love is easily attracted and expressed now. You are sociable and receptive, and you might learn something about a partner or a friend that raises your respect levels further. Something may touch you or inspire you through your interactions with others. Your conversations are entertaining and well-received. You might express your affections quite eloquently now, or attract someone to you through your good humor and way with words.
Libra

There is good energy with you today for emotional wellness as well as for special insight into a work matter or method, dear Libra. Sincerity will get you everywhere now. More than usual, you’re inclined to enjoy discussions and stories about the past and family. Decisions about home and family matters may be in the works now, and ideas are plentiful. A receptive environment for your ideas builds your confidence in your plans. You might also be discussing ways to improve your home life or income, and decisions may be made about purchases. It’s a good time for seeing eye to eye with family and friends. While there is a light quality to your interactions, your emotions run deeper than usual.
Scorpio

You’re exceptionally bright, alert, and persuasive today, dear Scorpio. Talking, writing, and studying can be good ways to overcome feelings of stress. While you may have been giving issues and problems a lot of thought, solutions come more readily today. You’re likely to feel a pleasing rapport with others on important issues today. It’s a great time to pick up valuable information, resolve problems, reach agreements, and see the bigger picture or possible positive outcomes, and this is a sweet relief. The Moon spends the day in your partnership sector, further boosting the role of others and your social life in your life now.
Sagittarius

With Mercury and Jupiter, your ruler, in happy aspect to one another today, dear Sagittarius, you’re thinking more positively. You may be dreaming up or gathering new money-making ideas or business plans since Mercury is in your resources sector. Conversations tend to be particularly helpful or inspiring. Word of mouth can help you out now. You might stumble upon something that you can successfully recycle and add value to your life. Social relations, comfort, and finances are starred for you today. You are magnetizing good things to you quite naturally now, mainly through conversations and positive thinking. Complicated problems seem to be easier to understand when you let go of overthinking and instead allow your intuition to work for you. Bright and new ways to streamline your life can come to you in this manner.
Capricorn

This day favors mental tasks, communications of all kinds (speaking, writing), travel, and transportation, dear Capricorn. Decision-making is sharper not because you’re honing in on details but because you’re more able to see the bigger picture. Others might turn to you for advice, or you could receive happy news. You can quite effectively use the power of words to attract what you want for yourself. It’s a good time for seeing possibilities and for making connections that you’ve previously overlooked. You enjoy sharing your thoughts with others right now, and happy news may be part of the picture. The Moon spends the day in your romantic and creative solar fifth house, stirring up the desire to have some fun.
Aquarius

This is a potentially excellent day for tapping into your intuition, dear Aquarius, as well as for connecting or coming to an agreement with a significant someone in your life. Thinking about past matters can be quite productive now as you can pull what you need from it to improve the present. You might experience deja vu or serendipity as you go about your regular affairs. Thinking is fresh and energetic, and you’re in especially good shape for contemplation and meditation. A constructive conversation might happen with a boss, parent, or associate. It’s also a fine time for finding the motivation and determination to either start something new or complete a project you’ve left unfinished.
Pisces

Your ideas are especially progressive right now, dear Pisces, as you are questioning the rules you typically live by and entertaining some wilder ideas. You may be dreaming up new possibilities and new possible solutions to problems. You might find it easier to put your worries aside and truly enjoy yourself today. Relationships are particularly pleasant and productive right now, and agreements tend to work out well. In fact, you may very well inspire someone. Your inner idealist is drawn to healing and helpful activities. Your thoughts are broad and positive, and solutions to problems are unusual but useful. Stretching your mind is a great exercise now. The Moon spends the day in your light, communicative, and curious solar third house.

Strong Signs, Elements, Modes
BALANCE OF SIGNS
TAURUS STRONG
Stable and enduring, strong values, unyielding, earthy, acquisitive, strong desires. Can be stuck, stubborn, overly possessive, self-indulgent.
SCORPIO STRONG
Intense, magnetic, penetrating perception, power to confront. Can be destructive, vengeful, jealous, overly dramatic.
CAPRICORN STRONG
Disciplined, responsible, reliable, industrious, conscientious, practical, achieving. Can be pessimistic, overly conventional, rigid, materialistic, callous.
AQUARIUS STRONG
Humanitarian, innovative, group conscious, progressive, serving others. Can be rebellious, eccentric, aloof, emotionally superficial, overly extroverted.
BALANCE OF ELEMENTS
FIRE WEAK
We are not very goal-oriented right now, or motivation to pursue our goals may be waning/lacking. Changes feel overwhelming. Enthusiasm may be low, we argue less, and we think more than we take action.
EARTH STRONG
We are especially in touch with the physical world. We consider what we’ve learned and experienced in the past in order to make the most of the present. 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.
BALANCE OF MODES
FIXED STRONG
We are thinking about the long view, seeking out security and stability rather than change. We may be committed, focused, resistant to making changes, and stubborn.
MUTABLE WEAK
We can have a hard time adapting to changes and to others’ agendas.
LUNAR PHASE: FIRST QUARTER
Moon from 90 to 135 degrees ahead of the Sun.
We are motivated to take action, perhaps due to a clash, conflict, or stress, as we are more aware of problems and differences now. Plans are beginning to take off or turn a corner. We should watch for pushing too hard.
The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EST) on January 25th:
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 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).
