We are in the wake of the Jan 11 New Moon in Capricorn, still fertile and receptive for intention-setting for 2024, as we traverse the end of Pluto in Capricorn before it re-enters Aquarius on Jan 20, only to return to Capricorn from Sept – mid-Nov ’24. Then we will have Pluto in Aquarius for the next twenty years. For now, focus on what you want to increase or create in your life and make your intentions (if you haven’t already). The time is right, this is auspicious, fertile ground to take responsibility for actively creating your future.
Jan 12 – Mars trine Jupiter. This is the perfect aspect to launch your New Moon in Capricorn intentions, as Mars-Jupiter energy inspires and propels you forward, generating momentum. Make the most of it by taking targeted actions that support your goals with this boundless energy – and get as much done as possible! This is a gift.
Jan 13 – Mercury in Capricorn. During its December Retrograde, Mercury moved from serious Capricorn back into idealistic, big picture Sagittarius, where it is not at its best for dealing with details or handling business. Now it’s Direct and returns to Capricorn, excellent for making decisions, schedules and plans for the long term that will serve you well. Down to earth, realistic, foresighted, pragmatic, strategic – Mercury in Capricorn is the adult in the room and it has your back when it comes to paperwork, contracts, decisions, projects and growth with support. Perfect timing…
Jan 15 – Sun sextile Neptune. The practical Sun in Capricorn in harmony with Neptune invites dreams, visions, creativity, spiritual practices, intuition, channeling, nature, compassion and Oneness as a way of expanding beyond 3D. Utilize this nonlinear, right-brained energy to rest, relax and go within, using your preferred method to seek guidance or inspiration that informs you further that you can bring into your everyday life.
Trust whatever you feel and honor the still, small voice within. Listen. Dream and vision. Maybe you lie in stillness in a sound bath or a sea salt with lavender bath as you float. Open in silence. Honor your evolving experience, recognizing how, through this energy, less can be more.
Jan 18 – Mercury sextile Saturn. Back to reality. This speaks to prioritizing, strategizing, methodical plans and commitments, and any decisions made are very clear. Mercury is in Capricorn (Saturn’s sign) – and in harmony with Saturn, it supports organizing your thoughts and creative ideas to bring them down to earth, so you can make them real. After the Sun-Neptune expansion, this is a
helpful container in the “birthing process” of your evolving Self and unfolding path, as you prepare to encounter the upcoming Sun and Pluto in Aquarius.
This is a week of expansion and grounding, contrasting energies day after day, yet all are extremely useful for your growth and evolution. Make the most of what’s available for you by aligning with the energy that’s present. It will support your process, whether you’re pursuing a professional activity or adjusting your personal life to accommodate changing circumstances.
Stay curious and open – the more you are engaged in the changing world, the better your experience will be. Resistance (trying to keep things the same) is futile when life is transforming. Remember, your soul chose to be here at this time – and if your ego needs to catch up, it’s better to focus on what your role may be as our new world unfolds.
To thine own Self be true. That’s the path. Ask for help if you need it during these fertile, life-changing times. We don’t know where we’re going, but we’re making a major turn… and we’re doing it together.

As always, I am grateful for your presence on our journey together.
