Happy New Year everyone, we are going to start the year off with a bang! Here is what lies in store for January.
First, Mars moves into Sagittarius on the 3rd and will tour here until Feb 16th. Mars fires things up, brings more passion into it, anger or fights over it and action about it. Sagittarius is about religion and politics, media and marketing, law and higher education, travel and foreign interests, situations at a distance and import/export, and weddings and other ceremonies. So, we are kicking 2020 off with a whole lot more going on in these areas than we’ve seen in a couple years.
Next, we have major energy gathering between the 6th-14th which may bring a major event out in the world, in our own life, or set the stage for it to occur as Mars triggers the degree between now and the end of March. First, on the 6th Jupiter begins his 6-day passage across the Karmic South Node, ending on the 11th. The last time this occurred was at the end of 1925 so it’s likely to say we have no experience of its influence. Perhaps Saudi Arabia or the Royal Family/Queen Elizabeth or even the United States or President Trump will be in the news since it seems these charts are connected to this period (and perhaps many other power structures, these are the ones I looked at).
In our own lives and globally we have Jupiter, ruler of religion, politics, media, law, education, travel, foreign interests, and ceremonies, in Capricorn, the sign of limits, endings, long-term commitments, responsibilities, structures that support, leaders, companies, countries, systems, the establishment, authorities, fame, career, and ambition. So, having this merging with the Karmic South Node, which denotes a loss or ending, or a rebalancing of a karmic scenario or the re-emergence of a past life soul ready to connect again this lifetime about one or more of the above-mentioned topics, it is likely going to be felt rather strongly.
At the same time this is occurring, Saturn hits the same degree that Pluto is on, merging energies there on the 22nd degree between the 6th and 14th, with it perfecting on the 12th. So, this is overlapping the Jupiter/Karmic Node focus on Capricorn energy and to get some perspective, Saturn and Pluto have not met here in over 500 years! Saturn is the ruler of Capricorn and they share limits, endings, long-term commitments, responsibilities, rules, regulations, time, authority figures, career needs, goals, status, fame, leadership, countries, corporations, structures that support, and ambitions. Pluto is about destruction and rebuilding, death and rebirth, power and control, obsessions and jealousy, manipulations and triangles, sex and reproduction, all financial matters outside of income (loans, debt, inheritance, taxes, investments, settlements, alimony, and the like). So, we have something major taking place here in the combination and it may bring a major event or set the stage for one. In 1518 when last this occurred Martin Luther pinned his doctrine to the church door and overturned the power balance in the world by shaking the Catholic Churches grip on God away from the priest class with their indulgences and power over admittance to Heaven and put it in the hands of the people via Protestantism and a direct line to God. We may be in for something similar playing out with the power balance and structures in place, whatever they might be, in 2020. No one knows for sure which structures are going to fall but fall they will so do your best to have backup food and water and money incase it gets dangerous before it transforms us or incase it is about a financial systems crash or toppling of a leader or regime or destructive conflict being ignited or earthquake or other natural event that is destructive, preparedness is your best bet.
Of course, this should be enough to rock our world but no, there’s more! In the middle of this second week of January-with Jupiter on the Karmic South Node and Saturn on Pluto, all in Capricorn, we have a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Cancer (opposite Capricorn) on the 10th. This is 3 times more powerful than a typical culmination under a Full Moon and is focused on our home, land, country, family, security, emotional needs, as well as on moves, renovations, real estate deals, parents, roommates, history, and ancestry. An Eclipse can be triggered 4-5 days prior or after as well so, something is coming to a major culmination, a whopper of an ending or a major breakthrough, an extraordinary achievement, some kind of final finale, or powerful celebration involving some of these topics. A Full Moon is when the Moon is opposite the Sun and at this time that is in Capricorn. Today, as this perfects not only will the Moon oppose the Sun but Mercury, Pluto and Saturn as well, all in Capricorn. This means there is something important going on here today as well with personal goals, career, status, leadership, corporations, rules and regulations, or authority figures and it will stay in elevated and charged up energy through the 12th when Saturn and Pluto will meet on the same degree in Capricorn.
So, to recap, this is a once in a lifetime scenario playing out in the second week of January, bringing something to a close or other kind of peak as old structures fall away or the stage is set for this to occur over the next few months, and we begin the process of rebuilding and rising from the ashes and into a more empowered story. This also involves Saturn; responsibilities, ambitions, structures that support, goals, timing, endings, commitments, authority figures, career interests, or status together with Pluto themes; destruction and rebirth, death and actual birth, power, control, financial scenarios, sexual interests, deep change, upheaval, or transformation. Mercury will meet with Saturn and Pluto on the same degree bringing news, talks, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, offers, or decisions into the story or perhaps focusing on a Gemini, Virgo, Scorpio, or Capricorn in the equation. By the 13th the Sun comes to sit with Pluto and Saturn as well, bringing us into the story on a personal or physical level, making it about our interests, body, image, brand, name, title, or needs here or getting us more involved, while the Full Moon Eclipse Moon brings emotions to a head and some destined endings, celebrations or achievements impacting our country, land, home, family, or other rooted interests. Keep in mind most of us already know what this is going to be, we can feel the old guard decaying, the old structures toppling, the dark underbelly floundering, and know it’s time to move on into the new. It happens now in January or is activated by Mars over the next few months as he builds to activate the degrees and the Spring Equinox Chart by the end of March. So, deep breath, something big this way comes.
Venus changes signs on the 13th, entering Pisces where she’ll now tour until Feb 7th. Pisces is where we get lost or escape reality, tune into our imagination and get inspired, fall pray to bad habits or addictions, keep or find out about secrets or deceptions, find our muse or enjoy film, music, painting, poetry, or other artistic outlets, find our spiritual path or pursue prayer, mediation, yoga, magic, or psychic interests, balance karma or connect with past life souls, investigate or research information, find time for romantic interests or clandestine affairs, deal with water, chemical or poison issues, or deal with hospitals or other institutions. So, we are now looking for Venus here which means love, women, income, or beauty topics may flower in these areas now. Venus may make the whole thing more enjoyable as well or be at the heart of what we are building or our desire for pleasure here.
On the 16th Mercury heads into Aquarius, followed by the Sun’s entry into this sign on the 20th and finally, a New Moon on the 24th in Aquarius. This means we are turning our focus to friends and associates, groups and online interests, astrology and charities, parties, events and gatherings, as well as freedom, original projects, inventions, and personal aspirations. Mercury here kicks off several weeks of more talks, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, offers, short trips, and decisions about it. The Sun here means we can now show up and get more personally or physically involved in these matters over the next 30 days, making it more about our own needs in the mix. The New Moon here means we get a 2-week cosmic boost that can help us to start something new or take a current interest to the next level with these matters. So, it seems it’s time to connect with your soul tribe and focus on the collective.

ARIES:
Happy New Year Aries. If ever there was a year to transform the direction of your life goals, career and garner some fame or recognition, this is it. Aim high, be willing to deconstruct the old to make way for the new, some of you have already set down this path as 2019 was winding down, some it begins this month, either way, you should keep this at the back of your mind throughout the year, it is time to be open to major life changes. 2020 kicks off with more energy pouring into your 9th house and you are going to have this fired up activity here until Jan 16th. So, perhaps it’s time to go back to school or start teaching what you know or get more training. It could be your cue to travel or look into the travel industry or relocate at a distance or get involved with import/export or foreign matters. It could be about your beliefs, be they religious, political or philosophical and what you are ready to do about them. It could also be about tending to legal matters or fighting a legal battle, getting involved with a wedding or focusing on other ceremonies. Mars is bringing more passion, anger, fighting spirit, and motivation in these areas of life so it would seem to be ‘go’ time.
Between the 6-13th Jupiter is passing across the Karmic South Node in Capricorn for the first time since the early 1920’s. This means when it comes to your personal goals, status, fame, career, or the boss, parent, judge, mentor, or other authority figure in your life, something big is going on with Karma. This could mean 1) a loss or letting go, 2) a rebalancing of karmic give and take or 3) a past life soul reconnecting with you now via one of these topics. Jupiter themes of travel, situations at a distance, legal, educational, media, marketing, ceremonial, religious, or political interests could tie in with what is occurring.
This is not the only thing going on in Capricorn during this week, not by a long shot. From the 6th through the 14th we are getting an intense amount of energy as Saturn and Pluto meet on the same degree in Capricorn, perfecting on the 12th. This is the first time they’ve met here since 1518 and Mercury will join in on the 12th and the Sun will join in on the 13th! So, again, Capricorn is about your personal goals, status, fame, career, or an authority figure such as a boss, parent, judge, director, mentor, or the like. You can expect news, talks, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, offers, or decisions as well as your own involvement or needs to come into accordance with this major Saturn/Pluto commitment, ending, structuring, restructuring, responsibility, limit, ambition, destruction, death, rebirth, power, control, sexual, reproductive, financial, or third-party influence with it that is now gathering to rock your world.
Venus moves into Pisces on the 13th kicking off several weeks of here influences here. Pisces is about artistic outlets, romantic interludes, past life scenarios, karmic balance, addictions, secrets, deceptions, investigations, research, institutions, and spiritual practices. You’ll now find Venus here or in other words love, income or beauty interests playing out in these areas and she should bring more enjoyment here as well.
On the 16th Mercury heads into Aquarius, on the 20th the Sun heads into Aquarius and on the 24th we have a New Moon in Aquarius. This is your cue to get more social or to focus on your original projects or aspirations. So, expect to see more going on with friends, associates, groups, the internet, astrology, charities, gatherings, and your inventive nature. Mercury will open up talks, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, offers, or decisions here. The Sun will urge your personal or physical involvement. And the New Moon will give you a 2-week boost forward into new or next level opportunities in these areas of life, so keep the lines of communications open and say yes to the invitations.
TAURUS:
Happy New Year, Taurus! This year you may find that some aspect of your old life is being deconstructed and you are being reborn in some way when it comes to your beliefs, be they religious, philosophical or political, your travel, foreign or distant interests, any legal matters, media, marketing, publishing, or broadcasting projects, weddings or other ceremonies, or your sense of adventure. Keep this transformative, serious and eventually expansive potential regarding these topics in the back of your mind as you head into 2020.
January kicks off with Mars entering your zone of loans, debt, inheritance, taxes, insurance, investments, alimony, child support, a partner’s money, and all other financial resources as well as into your zone of sex, reproductive, divorce, birth, death, and third-party interests. This gives you until Feb 16th with more motivation and action playing out here. You can get busy pursuing what you want here or find you are more passionate in these areas or that anger is triggered and you are ready to fight, so choose wisely.
It is your zone I mentioned at the top regarding travel, situations at a distance, legal, educational, media, marketing, wedding, ceremonial, religious, and political matters that is really taking off this month. Between the 6th-11th Jupiter will traverse the Karmic South Node in this Capricorn territory which means something is going to get bigger involving the karmic balance in one or more of these areas. It could denote a loss/letting go or the return of a past life soul to reconnect regarding one of these topics or that you are ready to give or take more depending on how the Karmic balance has been in these scenarios.
The Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on the 10th has a wing span of 5 days prior or after and is bringing something to a head for you via news you hear, a talk or meeting, your vehicles or electronics, the neighborhood or neighbor, a sibling or local activity, your short trips, move, writing, interviews, sales, offers, or decisions and this is 3 times more powerful than a typical Full Moon. So, expect to see this part of wrapping things up, marking an ending, having a breakthrough, celebrating, or an achievement. Opposite this Full Moon and therefore part of the climax, are the Sun, Mercury, Pluto, and Saturn, so again something big going on with a travel, distant, legal, educational, media, marketing, ceremonial, religious, or political matter in the mix.
By the 12th one of the biggest interactions we’ve experienced here is coming together, with Saturn merging with Pluto, again in this territory of legal, travel, educational, media, marketing, ceremonial, religious, or political arenas and Mercury is going to meet with both giants to open up the talks, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, short trips, local activities, or what’s going on with vehicles, electronics, siblings, neighbors, moves, or decisions in the mix. Saturn is about the establishment, authorities, corporations, countries, leaders, responsibilities, limits, endings, commitments, time, structures that support, or ambitions while Pluto is about deep change, profound moments, power, control, sex, financial matters, death, destruction, rebirth, the criminal underworld, jealousy, obsession, and triangles playing out. So, they come together to bring something big to the table involving those travel, distant, legal, educational, media, marketing, ceremonial, religious, or political themes. By the 13th the Sun sits with Saturn and Pluto, putting you directly into the story on a physical or personal level. It’s time to evolve this story!
Your ruler, Venus, heads into Pisces on the 13th where she will now tour until Feb 7th. This period is about time to focus on friends or associates, groups or the internet, astrology or charities, gatherings, parties or events, and your own aspirations or original projects and to look for Venus here, meaning look for love, income or beauty interests. It should be a more enjoyable period.
Finally, Mercury, then the Sun and finally a New Moon, all start to focus on Aquarius which for your sign means a lot more going on with personal goals, career, status, fame, or authority figures. Mercury arrives on the 16th onward which means the talks, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, offers, short trips, or decisions are opening up for you in these social and aspirational areas now. The Sun arrives on the 20th for a 30-day tour here so this means you are likely to be more personally or physically involved, taking the lead, making it about your interests here. And finally, the New Moon on the 24th then opens up a 2-week window that can help you to launch into something new or take a current interest to the next level with your career, fame, status, personal goals, or the boss, parent, judge, mentor, or other authority figure.
GEMINI:
Happy New Year Gemini! This year the really big influence is about the changes that are going to be in process with your financial situation, shared resources, sexual intimacy, or any powerful changes going on with a birth, death, divorce, or third-party scenarios. It’s time to purge what is over and evolve in some way that empowers you rather than drains you, look to rebalance something if you want to keep the status quo. Mars is now in Sage as you enter the new year which means lots more going on with partners, clients, specialists, agents, attorneys, competitors, opponents, advocates, or other key players. Mars is about motivation, passion, anger/fights, or the male energy so this is keying up now through Feb 6th with these people. You could be focused on travel, legal, educational, media, wedding, religious, or political interests with them or just in there regarding something big, make the most of it.
From the 6-11th Jupiter will pass over the Karmic South Node, something that hasn’t happened in Capricorn since the 1920’s! This means when it comes to loans, debt, inheritance, bankruptcy, alimony, child support, taxes, insurance, investments, settlements, a partner’s money, or other financial interests, or when it comes to sexual, reproductive, mortality, divorce, or third-party matters, something big is going on here as well. It’s a time to look at 1) letting go as a karmic cycle has run it’s course or 2) rebalancing karma in a situation where one side is giving or taking more than the other or 3) being open to past life souls returning this lifetime through one of these doorways to pick back up on some thread from before.
From the 6-14th Saturn will merge on the same degree with Pluto in Capricorn, perfecting on the 12th, and thereby making the intensity of this week unbelievably powerful as this overlaps the Jupiter/Karmic Node combination in the same sign. This is super rare as well, something they haven’t done here since 1518. So, these 2 powerful outer planets are about something cementing, ending, getting real, about goals, powerful changes, death and rebirth, or control in these financial, sexual, reproductive, birth, death, divorce, or third-party areas of life. So, you can expect something big to be happening regarding these topics the second week of January. Mercury will be on board so talks, meetings, news, offers, decisions, agreements, sales, writing, interviews, short trips, or local activities are active with these powerful, serious matters and deep changes as well. The Sun will be involved which means you are showing up and getting physically involved or your name, brand, image, title, or personal needs are someone front and center in this story.
Finally, in the midst of Jupiter, the Karmic South Node, Saturn, and Pluto all getting amplified in Capricorn between the 6th-14th, there is a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse opposite it in Cancer on the 10th! This means something is culminating in a big way with your income, purchases, possessions, products, something you are building, your values, or how you are valued. At this point you may be eclipsing something out via an ending or wrapping up of projects or you may be celebrating or achieving. Since the Full moon is opposite the Sun, Mercury, Saturn, and Pluto in Capricorn we know those financial, sexual, reproductive, mortality, divorce, or third-party matters are part of the story at this apex.
Venus heads into Pisces on the 13th which kicks off a few weeks of her beaming her light into your career, personal goals, status, fame, and/or dealings with authority figures. She may be about the love playing out here or something going on with your income or beauty interests, or she may be doing her part to smooth out issues or bring more enjoyment in these areas.
Mercury will head into Aquarius on the 16th, the Sun on the 20th and a New Moon kicks off here on the 24th, so you have a lot of energy starting to pull your attention to travel, distant, legal, educational, media, marketing, ceremonial, religious, or political interests. Mercury will open up talks, news, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, offers, short trips, local activities, or decisions about it. The Sun will put a spotlight on you and your involvement in the matter or needs in the equation or make it about your name, brand, image, title, or identity in the story. The New Moon will open up 2 weeks of potential forward momentum that can help you start something new or take a current interest here to the next level so make it count.
CANCER:
Happy New Year Cancer! 2020 looks like one of the more powerful years of your life when it comes to your relationships. This may be about romantic or business partners, clients, specialists, agents, attorneys, competitors, opponents, advocates, or other such types of one-on-ones and the deep changes or ways you are evolving the story with or without them. Mars is firing things up in your work, paperwork, hired help, co-workers, health, and animals arena as you head into January so you can expect to be busier than you’ve been in some time making things happen here. Mars may stir more passion about what you are doing or get you angry and in fighting stance or just motivate you to move a mountain or two, and you’ll have this added heat until Feb 16th so make the most of it.
From the 6-11th Jupiter will pass over the Karmic South Node in Capricorn, something that hasn’t happened here since the 1920’s! This means when it comes to partners, clients, specialists, representatives, competitors, opponents, or advocates, something fated is going on here as well. It’s a time to look at 1) letting go as a karmic cycle has run its course or 2) rebalancing karma in a situation where one side is giving or taking more than the other or 3) being open to past life souls returning this lifetime through one of these doorways to pick back up on some thread from before. Jupiter makes this a big or expansive topic and may bring travel, legal, educational, media, marketing, ceremonial, religious, or political topics to bear on what is going on with or about them.
From the 6-14th Saturn will merge on the same degree with Pluto in this same territory of Capricorn and during the same week, perfecting on the 12th. This is super rare as well, something they haven’t done here since 1518. So, these 2 powerful outer planets are about something cementing, ending, getting real, committing, setting goals, powerful changes, authorities in the mix, career needs, death and rebirth, financial, sexual, third-party, or controlling interests with these partners, clients, specialists, agents, attorneys, competitors, opponents, or advocates. What needs to go or where do you want to go from here and what do you want to start up now, look at the evolving story. Mercury joins the story on the 12th bringing news, talks, meetings, writing, sales, offers, short trips, or decisions into the mix. The Sun joins the story on the 13th which puts you into the middle of it via your physical involvement or personally in the story via your name, title, image, brand, or desires.
And if all of this with Jupiter, the South Node, Saturn, Pluto, Mercury, and the Sun is not enough to let you know it’s go time with these key relationships, well, on the 10th there is a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse opposite these players and in your sign, focused on you! This is a major moment for you, your image, brand, name, title, body, identity, or something you are showing up for or at center stage with. At this point something is wrapping up, ending, achieved, or celebrated with or about you and all of it is opposing these energies that are active with your partners, clients, specialists, reps, competitors, and other relationships bringing balance or turning points. Eclipses are 3 times more powerful than a regular Full Moon and help you to define something once and for all, regardless of which way you go with it. This is one heck of a major week for you Cancer.
Venus is heading into Pisces, a fellow water sign, on the 13th which means that love, income and beauty interests are now found when traveling or at a distance, in media or marketing arenas, through higher education, legal interests, weddings, ceremonies, religious experience, or political pursuits. Venus should make these areas of life more enjoyable or help you attract the love, income or beauty interests or smooth out issues here over the weeks ahead.
Finally, Mercury heads into Aquarius on the 16th, the Sun on the 20th and a New Moon kicks in here on the 24th, so you have lots of energy starting to gather in the 8th house. This means more going on with loans, debt, inheritance, bankruptcy, insurance, taxes, alimony, settlements, a partner’s money, or other financial resources and topics, or more going on with your sexual interests, reproductive needs, divorce, a birth, death, or any third-party situations. Mercury will open up the talks, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, offers, short trips, or decisions about it while the Sun will get you in there to focus on your involvement or interests in the mix. The New Moon will give you a 2 week boost forward that can help you start something new in these areas or take a current interest to the next level so have at it!
LEO:
Happy New Year Leo! 2020 looks to be a very powerful year for your work, health and animals. Things are evolving, there is a chance to make changes or go deeper, or find your power as you close certain doors and move into that next major life chapter. It’s big, the details matter and so does making it simple and pure so let’s get going. First, as you start into January Mars is already freshly into your zone of creative ventures, lovers, children, and recreational pursuits. This trend lasts until Feb 16th and can get you busier than you’ve been in a couple years in these areas of life. Look at motivating and moving a mountain or two or expressing your passion a bit more and do keep a handle on the side of Mars that is easily angered since it won’t do you a lot of good here.
From the 6-11th Jupiter will pass over the Karmic South Node in Capricorn, something that hasn’t happened here since the 1920’s! This means when it comes to work, health, animals, paperwork, hired help, or co-workers, something big is going on here as well. It’s a time to look at 1) letting go as a karmic cycle has run its course or 2) rebalancing karma in a situation where one side is giving or taking more than the other or 3) being open to past life souls returning this lifetime through one of these doorways to pick back up on some thread from before. Jupiter themes of travel, legal, educational, media, marketing, ceremonial, religious, or political may color what is going on here.
From the 6-14th Saturn will merge on the same degree with Pluto in this same Capricorn territory, perfecting on the 12th, and really making this week one of the major weeks of the year. This is super rare as well, something they haven’t done here since 1518. So, these 2 powerful outer planets are about something cementing, ending, getting real, about goals, powerful changes, death and rebirth, commitments, ambitions, structures that support, deconstruction, financial, sexual, evolving, or control influences playing out with your work, hired help, co-workers, paperwork, health, or animals. Mercury and the Sun will also be active in this area at the same time which brings talks, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, offers, short trips, agreements, or decisions about these matters and gets you in there physically or focuses on your image, brand, name, title, or needs in the mix. Big.
If that weren’t enough, smack dab in the middle of this we have a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse opposite all this Capricorn energy in Cancer and something peaking for you with film, music, painting, poetry, romance, spirituality, psychic interests, magic, rest and recuperation, investigations, research, addictions, secrets, deceptions, or institutions. Lunar Eclipses are 3 times as powerful and about bringing endings, achievements or celebrations in one or more of these areas. At the time of this Full Moon Eclipse on the 10th Mercury, the Sun, Saturn, and Pluto will actively be opposite so those work, health, paperwork, hired help, co-worker, or animal matters may be a big part of this story.
Venus heads into Pisces on the 13th which is your territory of financial matters, sexuality, reproduction, birth, death, divorce, and third-party matters. So, love, income and beauty interests are now traveling through these areas of life and this can help you attract some combination here or smooth out issues or enjoy what is going on over the weeks ahead.
Finally, Mercury, the Sun and the New Moon are all going to start to take your focus into your relationship arena from the 16th, 20th and 24th respectively. This means romantic or business partners, clients, specialists, agents, attorneys, competitors, opponents, advocates, or other key players are front and center. Mercury opens up the talks, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, offers, or decisions with them while the Sun puts a spotlight on you and urges you to show up and get more personally or physically involved with these folks. The New Moon opens up 2 weeks of momentum that can help you to start something new or take a current interest to the next level with them so decide what you want and with whom and then go for it.
VIRGO:
Happy New Year Virgo! The big theme for 2020 and Virgo is about the powerful part of your life that is changing and evolving with lovers, children, creative ventures, and recreational pursuits. This is the year to get serious one way or the other!
Mars arrives in your zone of home, family, real estate deals, moves, renovations, history, parents, and roommates on the 3rd and kicks you into high gear here, ready to make things happen. This is the first passage of Mars in this territory in over 2 years so you can plan on getting busy and being more passionate about what is going on here as well. You will have to keep a handle on anger and fights since Mars can stir these as well so that you get the most out of the next 6+ weeks.
From the 6-11th Jupiter will pass over the Karmic South Node, something that hasn’t happened here since the 1920’s! This means when it comes to lovers, children, creative ventures, and recreational pursuits something big is going on here as well. It’s a time to look at 1) letting go as a karmic cycle has run its course or 2) rebalancing karma in a situation where one side is giving or taking more than the other or 3) being open to past life souls returning this lifetime through one of these doorways to pick back up on some thread from before. This will likely be through a Jupiter topic such as a trip, something at a distance, educational pursuits, legal needs, weddings, religion, politics, or media ventures with the lover, kids, creative venture, or recreational pursuit.
From the 6-14th Saturn will merge on the same degree with Pluto in this same territory of lovers, kids, creativity, and fun, perfecting on the 12th. This is super rare as well, something they haven’t done here since 1518. So, these 2 powerful outer planets are about something cementing, ending, getting real, focused on goals, powerful changes, death and rebirth, or control in these areas of children, lovers, creative ventures, or recreation or bring in topics of sex, reproduction, birth, death, divorce, financial matters, career, personal goals, or authority figures in the mix. Mercury and the Sun will also be involved during this period which means more news, talks, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, offers, decisions, and personal involvement or impact regarding these lovers, kids, creative ventures, or recreational interests as part of the story.
So, not only is this week super-sonic crazy intense with Saturn, Pluto, Jupiter, and the Karmic South Node all honing in on true love/lovers, children, creative ventures, and recreation for you, but smack in the middle of this period there is a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse opposite these topics on the 10th! This means something is culminating with an aspiration, original project, friends, groups, the internet, astrology, charities, or gatherings at this point and in a big way since Eclipses tend to be 3 times more powerful than a normal Full Moon. It will resonate with whatever is going on with the lovers, kids, creativity, or fun and may eclipse out what has blocked or is over as part of the big wrap-up, ending, achievement, or celebration here.
Venus heads into Pisces on the 13th where she’ll travel over the next few weeks which is your relationship arena. So, when looking for love, income or beauty it should be showing up with partners, clients, specialists, agents, attorneys, competitors, or advocates at this point or at the least Venus here can help you smooth out issues or find enjoyment with these players.
Finally, we have Mercury, the Sun and a New Moon all taking up placement in Aquarius on the 16th, 20th and 24th respectively. For Virgo this means more talks, meetings, writing, sales, short trips, offers, ideas, and decisions about work, health, paperwork, hired help, co-workers, or the animals as soon as Mercury arrives. Then more personal or physical focus or involvement from you about these matters as soon as the Sun arrives. And then a cosmic boost that can help you move into something new or next level with these interests at the New Moon and over the 2 weeks that follow, so be proactive.
LIBRA:
Happy New Year Libra! A major theme for you in 2020 has to do with your living situation; what you are doing at home, with any moves, renovations or real estate deals, your sense of security or emotional roots, or with family, parents, or roommates. It is going to be powerful and about going deeper, making changes, evolving the story, making long-term commitments, ending what is done, tackling responsibilities, and seeking growth, happiness or prosperity here.
Mars heads into your communications and commerce arena on the 3rd and he will be firing you up and helping you motivate here over the weeks ahead. You haven’t hosted this action-packed energy in this area of talks, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, offers, short trips, local activities, siblings, neighbors, moves, vehicles, electronics, flirtations, and decisions in a couple years so expect to be more passionate, determined, persuasive, busy, and at some points combative (careful with the fuse) as you move things forward here.
From the 6-11th Jupiter will pass over the Karmic South Node, something that hasn’t happened here since the 1920’s! This means when it comes to your home, family, move, renovation, real estate deal, parent, roommate, history, ancestry, security, or emotional needs, something big is going on here starting now. It’s a time to look at 1) letting go as a karmic cycle has run its course or 2) rebalancing karma in a situation where one side is giving or taking more than the other or 3) being open to past life souls returning this lifetime through one of these doorways to pick back up on some thread from before. This may involve Jupiter topics so look at what is happening in these areas tied to travel, distance, legal, educational, media, marketing, ceremonial, religious, or political themes.
From the 6-14th Saturn will merge on the same degree with Pluto in this same territory of home, family, parents, roommates, moves, renovations, real estate deals, history, ancestry, emotions, and security, perfecting on the 12th. This is super rare as well, something they haven’t done here since 1518. So, these 2 powerful outer planets are about something cementing, ending, getting real, about goals, powerful changes, death and rebirth, control, or the financial, sexual, reproductive, divorce, death, birth, third-party, career needs, or authority figure in the mix as something powerful comes together here in a finite way. Since both Mercury and the Sun will be active during this period as well you can plan on more talks, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, offers, short trips, or decisions as well as your personal involvement or interests in the mix, so listen up, speak up, look at choices.
Right smack in the middle of this powerful week with Saturn, Pluto, Jupiter, and the Karmic South Node, there is a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on the 10th opposite the area they are impacting! So, you have all this stuff going on with home, real estate deals, moves, renovations, family, parents, roommates, history, or emotions, and then the Eclipse brings something to a head with a personal goal, your status, reputation, fame, career, or an authority figure like a boss, parent, judge, or other higher-up. At this point you may be noting a major closure, ending, achievement, or celebration. Eclipses are 3 times more powerful so this can be about eclipsing out what has blocked or is no longer affective in moving forward as part of the story.
Venus heads into Pisces on the 13th which is your zone of work, health, animals, paperwork, hired help, or co-workers. During the weeks ahead you should be able to find love, income or beauty in these areas and smooth out issues and enjoy things here a bit more.
Finally, Mercury, the Sun and the New Moon are going to resonate your creative ventures, recreational pursuits, or what you are doing with kids or lovers from the 16th, 20th and 24th respectively. Mercury will open up the talks, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, offers, short trips, or decisions about these interests while the Sun will urge you to show up and get more personally or physically involved over the next 30 days. The New Moon will give you a cosmic boost forward helping you to start something new or take things to the next level in current scenarios and is active for 2 weeks starting on the 24th so make the most of it!
SCORPIO:
Happy New Year Scorpio! A major thrust of the year 2020 is going to be about your ideas, talks, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, offers, short trips, local activities, moves, siblings, neighbors, vehicles, electronics, or decisions as your 3rd house is hosting one of the most powerful combinations of a lifetime! More on that in a moment.
You have your co-ruler, Mars, heading into your zone of income, purchases, possessions, gifts, products, and values on the 3rd and firing you up to make something happen here over the next 6+ weeks. You haven’t had this extra spark in a couple years in this territory so you want to plan on being busier, getting passionate, and doing your part to keep a handle on angry or fighting tendencies it may bring so you can move a mountain or two and stay out of trouble in these areas of life.
From the 6-11th Jupiter will pass over the Karmic South Node, something that hasn’t happened here since the 1920’s! This means when it comes to those talks, meetings, sales, the writing, agreements, interviews, offers, short trips, local activities, vehicles, electronics, moves, neighbors, siblings, or decisions, something big is going on here starting now. It’s a time to look at 1) letting go as a karmic cycle has run its course or 2) rebalancing karma in a situation where one side is giving or taking more than the other or 3) being open to past life souls returning this lifetime through one of these doorways to pick back up on some thread from before. This may occur via Jupiter topics so look at travel, distance, legal, educational, media, marketing, ceremonial, religious, or political topics to influence.
Overlapping this, from the 6-14th, Saturn will merge on the same degree with Pluto in this same territory, perfecting on the 12th. This is super rare as well, something they haven’t done here since 1518. So, these 2 powerful outer planets are about something cementing, ending, getting real, about goals, powerful changes, death and rebirth, control, career needs, authority types, financial scenarios, sexual interests, triangles, divorce, mortality issues, or the balance of power in these matters. Expect to see changes or to go deeper, to get serious and/or evolve the story now. Mercury and the Sun will get involved during this period as well bringing more personal or physical involvement for you, if that were possible!
So, you can see this week that falls from the 6-14th is a whopper regarding those topics but that’s not all that is happening. Right in the middle of this, on the 10th, there is a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse opposite all these planets and activity that is already amped up to the max. This is occurring in the zone of travel, distant, legal, educational, media, marketing, wedding, ceremonial, religious, or political interests and is about major endings, breakthroughs, achievements, wrap-ups, or celebrations as things peak. An Eclipse is 3 times more powerful than a typical Full Moon so emotions run high and you may eclipse out what is blocking this breakthrough or what is now over, as part of this moment.
Venus heads into Pisces on the 13th which is your zone of true love and lovers, children, creative ventures, and recreation. So, over the weeks ahead look for love, income or beauty in these areas and the potential to smooth out issues or enjoy things more.
Finally, on the 16th, 20th and 24th we have Mercury, the Sun and a New Moon all kicking in through the zone of home, family, moves, renovations, real estate deals, parents, roommates, history, security needs, and emotions for your sign. So, Mercury brings several weeks of talks, news, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, offers, short trips, neighbors, siblings, or decisions about these matters, while the Sun urges you to get in there and get more physically or personally involved and make it about your interests. The New Moon will then give you a 2-week boost starting on the 24th to start something new or take your current situation into that next chapter so be proactive!
SAGITTARIUS:
Happy New Year Sage! 2020 is shaping up to be a profound year of power, change, serious endings or commitments, growth, and karmic scenarios playing out around your income, purchases, possessions, values, and products so stay tuned, more on that in a bit.
Mars heads into your sign on the 3rd and will be bringing his fire and fury, passion and action, spark and determination to the things you want to do for or about your own needs, body, image, brand, name, title, or involvement in life. This can really stir the pot and get you busier than you’ve been in some time and it is great for having an edge and getting noticed as well, just keep a handle on the fights and take care around sharp objects and other accident-prone situations!
From the 6-11th Jupiter will pass over the Karmic South Node, something that hasn’t happened here since the 1920’s! This means when it comes to your income, products, possessions, purchases, gifts, or values, something big is going on starting now. It’s a time to look at 1) letting go as a karmic cycle has run its course or 2) rebalancing karma in a situation where one side is giving or taking more than the other or 3) being open to past life souls returning this lifetime through one of these doorways to pick back up on some thread from before. Jupiter themes may apply so look at any travel, distance, legal, educational, media, marketing, ceremonial, religious, or political interests in the mix.
From the 6-14th Saturn will merge on the same degree with Pluto in this same territory of income, purchases, possessions, products, gifts, and values, perfecting on the 12th. This is super rare as well, something they haven’t done here since 1518. So, these 2 powerful outer planets are about something cementing, ending, getting real, about goals, powerful changes, death and rebirth, control, or what is going on with career, authority types, loans, inheritance, insurance, taxes, or other financial influences, sexual needs, divorce, a birth, death, or third-party situation playing out to bring powerful change or finite scenarios into play here. Mercury and the Sun will join the story during this period so you can expect more talks, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, short trips, siblings, neighbors, vehicles, electronics or decisions to come to bear on what is happening, as well as more need for you to be involved or for it to involve your name, brand, title, image, body, or interests more strongly.
As you can see this week is power-filled with what is going on with your earnings, spending, possessions, products, gifts, and values, but that is not all that is happening! Right in the middle of all this activity there is a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse opposite these topics that peaks on the 10th. So, something is wrapping up, ending, achieved, or celebrated as it culminates regarding your loan, inheritance, bankruptcy, insurance, taxes, settlements, investments, alimony, child support, partner’s money, other financial matter, or with your sexual, reproductive, divorce, birth, death, or third-party situation. And both sides of the equation are tied to each other somehow so this period is off the charts.
Venus heads into Pisces on the 13th which is your zone of home, family, parents, roommates, moves, renovations, real estate deals, history, security needs, or emotions. This means that over the next few weeks you’ll be seeing Venus here which means love, income or beauty playing out in these areas or more enjoyment or a smoothing out of issues, so grab it while you can.
Finally, Mercury, then the Sun and then a New Moon all are kicking into gear from the 16th, 20th and 24th respectively and they are all about talks, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, offers, agreements, short trips, local activities, siblings, neighbors, moves, vehicles, electronics, flirtations, or decisions.

CAPRICORN:
Happy New Year Capricorn! I’m thinking 2020 may be one of the biggest years of your life because something about you, your body, image, brand, name, title, identity, involvement, or needs is about to go through a powerful and profound change, one that has been whispering it’s intentions and needs to you since as early as 2008, and it starts this month!
First, Mars heads into your artistic, romantic, spiritual, secretive, recuperative, institutional, investigational, and research zone starting on the 3rd. He has not been here in a couple years and he’s now all about getting you busier with the film, music, painting, poetry, prayer, mediation, yoga, romantic interludes, hospital, other institutions, research, or investigations. Mars gives you an edge, helps you motivate, move a mountain here, get more passionate, or deal with anger about it. You’ll have until Feb 16th so make it count.
Now, from the 6-11th Jupiter will pass over the Karmic South Node, something that hasn’t happened here since the 1920’s! This means when it comes to you, your body, image, brand, name, title, identity, personal needs, or physical involvement in things, something big is going on here now. It’s a time to look at 1) letting go or ending something as a karmic cycle has run its course or 2) rebalancing karma in a situation where one side is giving or taking more than the other or 3) being open to past life souls returning this lifetime through one of these doorways to pick back up on some thread from before. Look at Jupiter topics possibly being pertinent to this matter; travel, distant situations, legal, educational, media, marketing, ceremonial, religious, or political themes, are you showing up here, putting your name on the dotted line, focused on your image, brand or body, you get the idea.
Overlapping this, from the 6-14th, Saturn will merge on the same degree with Pluto, also in your sign and about you, your body, image, brand, name, title, identity, involvement, or personal needs and this perfects on the 12th. This is super rare as well, something they haven’t done here since 1518. So, these 2 powerful outer planets are about something cementing, ending, getting real, about goals, powerful changes, death and rebirth, control, the commitments, responsibilities, career needs, authority figures, financial interests, sexual needs, reproductive situation, divorce, or third-parties playing into what is happening with, for or about you at this point. Mercury and the Sun will both link to these peak points during this period which means more talks, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, offers, short trips, local activities, siblings, neighbors, vehicles, electronics, or decisions that put a spotlight on you and bring whatever this is to its outcome.
As if this weren’t enough going on between the 6-14th, right in the middle of all fo this peaking for you there is a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on the 10th that culminates in a big way and opposite your sign! So, at this point something big is ending, achieved, breaking through, wrapping up, or celebrated regarding a partner, client, specialist, agent, attorney, competitor, advocate, or other key relationship and this is likely to be emotional or in some way hone in on your roots, sense of security, home, family, parent, roommates, move, renovation, or real estate needs in the mix, while also sparking the energy going on in your sign about you! Eclipses are 3 times more powerful than a typical Full Moon so something may be eclipsed out that blocks or has run its course as part of this story.
Venus heads into Pisces on the 13th which is your zone of siblings, neighbors, vehicles, electronics, writing, sales, interviews, talks, meetings, flirtations, short trips, local activities, offers, and decisions. So, over the weeks ahead you can look for love, income or beauty to play out here or to smooth out issues or enjoy yourself a bit more in these areas of life.
Finally, on the 16th, 20th and 24th Mercury, then the Sun and then the New Moon will be activating more in your income, purchases and possessions zone. Mercury will open up the talks, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, offers, short trips, and decisions about it, while the Sun will put a spotlight on you and get you more interested in showing up and getting more personally or physically involved or putting your name, title, brand, or image into the story.

AQUARIUS:
Happy New Year Aquarius! 2020 is shaping up to be one of the more powerful, intense, serious, and changing or evolving years you’ve had in some time, perhaps even ever and the focus is on 12th house matters. So, when it comes to romantic interludes or affairs, spiritual practices, magic, psychic interests, art, film, music, poetry, dance, or other muse-driven interests, spas, retreats, hospitals, or other institutions, secrets, deceptions, addictions, or bad habits, or research or investigations, something big this way comes, more on this in a bit.
First, Mars heads into your social arena on the 3rd for a 6+ week stint here and it’s all about the fire, the passion, the fights, or the motivation and action going on with friends, associates, groups, the internet, astrology, charities, gatherings, or about original projects or aspirations. You should be busier than you’ve been in a couple years here so make the most of it.
Then, from the 6-11th, Jupiter will pass over the Karmic South Node, something that hasn’t happened here since the 1920’s! This means when it comes to those artistic, romantic, spiritual, magical, psychic, addictive, secretive, deceptive, institutional, investigational, or research matters, something big is going on here starting now.

As if this weren’t enough, smack dab in the middle of this, on the 10th, is a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse that is opposite these topics and thereby influencing more energy peak around them. The Eclipse itself is about work, health, animal, paperwork, hired help, or co-worker situations coming to a head. This may bring an ending, breakthrough, wrapping up of a project or situation, celebration, recognition, or achievement here. Emotions are likely to be high and something may be eclipsed out that has blocked or is over as part of the story.

PISCES:
Happy New Year Pisces!

On the 3rd Mars is heading into your Midheaven where he will spend the next 6+ weeks motivating you to make things happen on the career front or with a personal goal, regarding your status, reputation, recognition, or fame, or when dealing with the boss, parent, director, judge, or other authority figures. You haven’t had this kind of fire here in a couple years and it should motivate you into getting busier about things or help you express your passion or work out anger issues and move things along.
Now, from the 6-11th, Jupiter will pass over the Karmic South Node, something that hasn’t happened here since the 1920’s! This means when it comes to your friends, associates, groups, the internet, astrology, charities, gatherings, aspirations, or original projects, something big is going on here starting now. It’s a time to look at 1) letting go as a karmic cycle has run it’s course or 2) rebalancing karma in a situation where one side is giving or taking more than the other or 3) being open to past life souls returning this lifetime through one of these doorways to pick back up on some thread from before. Look at Jupiter’s influence here via travel, distance, legal, educational, media, ceremonial, religious, or political threads.
Overlapping this, from the 6-14th, Saturn will merge on the same degree with Pluto in this same territory, perfecting on the 12th.

So, these 2 powerful outer planets are about something cementing, ending, getting real, about goals, powerful changes, death and rebirth, control, career needs, authority types, financial situations, sexual needs, divorce, or third-party scenarios impacting the aspirations, original projects, friends, associates, groups, internet, astrology, charities, or gatherings. Mercury and the Sun will be activating here as well during this period so more talks, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, offers, short trips, or decisions as well as more personal or physical involvement or impact going on about these social or aspirational interests.
As if this weren’t enough major energy to contend with, right in the middle of this week of intensity, on the 10th, we have a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse that is opposite all this energy! So, something is coming to a head big time when it comes to a lover, a child or children, your creative ventures or talents, or a recreational pursuit. This is about wrapping things up, marking endings, celebrating, having breakthroughs, or achieving goals here. Emotions may run high and you may eclipse out something that has blocked or that is over as part of this peak experience. It all threads together somehow and may feel epic.
Venus heads into your sign on the 13th which means that you can now focus on your own body, image, brand, name, personal needs, title, or physical involvement in love, with income, or about beauty. Venus should help smooth out personal or physical issues a bit or bring more enjoyment to you as well.
Finally, on the 16th, 20th and 24th we have Mercury, then the Sun and then a New Moon kicking in and it’s about your 12th house topics moving along again. So, expect more talks, meetings, sales, writing, interviews, offers, short trips, or decisions (Mercury) about romantic, artistic, spiritual, institutional, research, addictive, secretive, magical, or psychic interests from the 16th onward.
