Astromat for January 6-12

Astromat


Aries
(March 21-April 20)

Expansion on numerous levels is indicated as your cosmic ruler, Mars, moves through the sign of Sagittarius and your 9th house. Although this is a naturally harmonious position for your sign, avoid taking on too many projects simultaneously. You know your power is in starting something, it's the finishing part that you still need some work on. Helpful contacts with the Sun around January 10 could bring romance, job advancement and positive interactions with children and the sign Leo. Associations with Neptune soon after January 12 could bring humanitarian efforts and aspirations toward your ultimate goal, especially when music, dance, film, hospitals or the ocean are involved. The signs Pisces and Sagittarius could play a beneficial role.



Taurus
(April 21-May 21)

A lighthearted attitude is forecasted as your cosmic ruler, Venus, moves through the last degrees of the sign Sagittarius and your 8th house. Close connections with Mercury could inspire long-distance calls, new cloths, travel plans and enrollment into universities anytime after January 7. Associations with neighbors, siblings and the signs Gemini and Virgo are also likely at this time. A definite shift may be felt around January 9, when Venus eases into the sign of Capricorn and your 9th house inspiring a more serious attitude and more focus on travel, spirituality and higher forms of education. An unexpected surprise is shown just after January 12. New friends, clubs and the sign Aquarius could be involved.



Gemini
(May 22-June 21)

Business and personal relationships have been highlighted with your planetary ruler, Mercury, moving through the sign of Sagittarius and your 7th house. Harmonious associations with Venus begin around January 7, bringing new love affairs and beneficial business deals, especially when women and the signs Taurus and Libra are involved. A shift into the sign of Capricorn close to January 10 changes your mindset to sexuality, transformation, career and other more serious issues. Sexual encounters are certainly forecasted, along with financial enhancements, shared accounts and access to loans, grants, insurance and inheritance. Unexpected situations at work and short-term lovers are shown just after January 12. An Aquarius or Capricorn could play a part.



Cancer
(June 22-July 22)

Happiness and optimism are forecasted as the Moon moves through the sign of Sagittarius and your 6th house. Powerful contacts with Pluto around January 8 could influence physical healing, a new diet, career changes and psychic connections with pets and coworkers, especially if the sign Scorpio and Aries are involved. Get ready for the new Moon in Capricorn and your 7th house close to January 10. This is an excellent time to begin a new relationship or business venture, but some degree of opposition should be expected.



Leo
(July 23-Aug. 23)

This is a week of extremes as your ruler, the Sun, passes through the sign of Capricorn and your 6th house. Connections with Jupiter close to January 7 could signal good news, travel, long-distance calls and the threat of becoming a motor mouth, especially when foreigners, in-laws and the signs Sagittarius and Pisces are involved. Good luck is also a possibility, but avoid going overboard with food and drink or laziness at the workplace. A lusty new romance with a Scorpio or Aries is a possibility for January 9, and passion could quickly turn to argument, so be reminded that you are more of a lover, than a fighter. Follow your heart.



Virgo
(Aug. 24-Sept. 22)

Family and travel are featured while your cosmic ruler, Mercury, glides through the last degrees of the sign Sagittarius and your 4th house. Close contacts with Venus are indicated anytime after January 7 influencing home redecoration, happy emotions and harmonious associations with family members. A harmonious shift into the sign of Capricorn and your 5th house could inspire recreation, artistic pursuits, sporting events and romance, especially if women and the signs Taurus and Libra have anything to do with it. Associations with Uranus could bring unexpected love affairs, more excitement in your current relationship or new business opportunities. Friends and the signs Aquarius and Capricorn may apply.



Libra
(Sept. 23-Oct. 23)

Your celestial ruler, Venus, is harmoniously moving through the last degrees of the sign Sagittarius and your 3rd house. Connections with Mercury around January 7 could cause numerous communications, several short trips, housework and contacts with siblings, neighbors and the sign Gemini and Virgo. This is an excellent time to make important decisions, especially when real estate or home-based businesses are concerned. Vibrations from Uranus could provide new friends, job advancement and short-term employment just after January 12. The signs Aquarius and Capricorn may be helpful.



Scorpio
(Oct. 24-Nov. 22)

You're thinking big with both of your planetary rulers, Pluto and Mars, moving through the sign of Sagittarius and your 2nd house. This is a lucky position inspiring financial expansion, spiritual insights, travel and a generally positive outlook on life. However, stressful vibrations from Saturn after January 7 could influence a test of morals, career challenges and financial strains due to your home, parents, depression, teeth, skin, bones or knees. Romance and good news are possibilities for January 9, especially when a Leo has anything to do with it. Avoid letting the signs Capricorn and Aquarius lead you into temptation.



Sagittarius
(Nov. 23-Dec. 20)

Good vibrations are brewing as your celestial rulers, Jupiter and Neptune, maintain a harmonious alignment for yet another week. Greater intuitive abilities, artistic inspiration, secret activities and inner harmony are all likely, especially if the sign Pisces is involved. It's very important for you to follow your instincts at this time, as they will be right on the mark. Contacts with the Sun around January 8 could bring issues with children, expensive dates, immoral romances and bad investments. The sign Leo could cause problems.



Capricorn
(Dec. 21-Jan. 20)

Emotions and relationships are highlighted with your ruler, Saturn, regressing in the sign of Cancer and your 7th house.

Deep desires for change may surface, but avoid projecting your needs for change onto others. Clashes with the Sun could bring problems with love relationships, business associates and children after January 12. The sign Leo could play a part.

Slight power struggles are a possibility, along with career changes, difficulties with the signs Scorpio and Aries and obsessions with your ultimate goals. Cosmic forces improve just after January 12 with financial increases, love affairs and great news. The signs Taurus, Libra and Gemini could be helpful, but children and the sign Leo may be problematic at this time.



Pisces
(Feb. 19-March 20)
