Jan 1 through Jan 2, Exact on Jan 1
Friend's, ex-partners, and former lovers are apt to be sharing their love and affections with others today, and you may not be very certain how you feel about the situation. A certain amount of loneliness creeps into your heart even if everything else in your life is fairly smooth. Avoid letting your ego reactions put you in conflict with a current partner. Not a favorable time for initiating legal matters, social events, romantic attachments, partnership or cooperative ventures. Do not accept gaudiness or ostentatiousness as a substitute for true beauty.

Jan 1 through Jan 2, Exact on Jan 1
You are on your own under this influence. Trusting those in charge can be a risky business. They may be elusive and hard to find, or they may deliberately mislead you. There is also the potential that you are the one who appears to be elusive to others. Whatever the state of affairs, it is best to avoid all situations that require clear thinking, attention to detail, and confrontation with reality. Use the available energy for artistic or spiritual projects. Be cautious if you are around water or find yourself in unfamiliar territory.

Enters on Jan 2
Your public reputation, that is, what others think of you, may be of greater concern to you these days. You have a tendency to assess the role you play in the world at large and, to a certain extent, how that role is enhanced or modified by family responsibilities. Whether your primary work is raising a family, pursuing a career, or a combination of both, you need to know that you as an individual make a difference. Relationships with parents, supervisors, and other authority figures (including your attitude toward responsibilities imposed by state and government regulations) can suffer under this influence as you seek to promote your own goals and reputation. You want greater control of your destiny; to be assured that your life is going in the direction you were ultimately meant to take. The negative potential includes the possibility that you will be disappointed at not attaining the level of achievement or status for which you strive. However it would be a mistake to let failure discourage you from continuing to work toward attaining honor and recognition for your work, especially since that reality is a possible future result of your present efforts.

Jan 3 through Jan 5, Exact on Jan 4
This influence can only be positive if you have the maturity to understand that there is a certain pleasure in thankless tasks, self-discipline, and staying home alone. Receiving little or no appreciation or affection, and a total lack of humor in the people and situations you encounter can strengthen your character if you are the type that can turn negative situations into learning experiences. Forget about romance, fun and games, instant gratification, and the well-fed feeling that comes from dining sumptuously. There are few if any pleasures to be had now without also incurring responsibility-- and, in the end, perhaps all you may really get is the responsibility. Others may regard you as too serious, too old, too formal, or too inflexible. This is not a favorable period to ask others for their opinions, cooperation, or assistance. Go it alone. Do not take unnecessary risks of any kind because Lady Luck is not on your side. If something good does come your way, hold your breath and hope it will still be there in the morning.
Transit SUN conjoined natal Moon
Jan 5 through Jan 7, Exact on Jan 6
Determination and ego catch up with emotional desires-- and you are not to be denied. Success on this day is likely to be viewed as an incredible achievement, while failure causes bitter disappointment. You take everything that happens in a very personal way. You are more aggressive and certain than usual in the expression of your creativity and imagination. Negative potentials include indulging in self-centeredness, stubborn pride, and encountering difficulties with supervisors or authority figures. Dealing with women, babies, handling domestic matters or participation in family activities are apt to be on your schedule. Today may mark the beginning of a new venture that you either initiate for yourself or one in which you play a prominent part.
Transit MERCURY trine natal Sun
Jan 6 through Jan 13, Exact on Jan 8, Jan 11
Either the news and information you receive, or the way that you are able to make use of it can greatly enhance your personal image and reputation during this period. Others will tend to look very favorably on your accomplishments as well as your opinions. Your approval of their endeavors will no doubt also be sought. Under this influence there is a successful meshing of ideas and methods, the potential results of which include an advancement in your social or professional position and an invitation to become the leading spokesperson of a group. This is an excellent time for you to launch a writing or communications project, engage in business transactions, and begin a journey.
Transit PLUTO square natal Mars
Jan 8 through Jan 31
This long-term influence is likely to bring difficult but not insurmountable circumstances, the nature of which involves overcoming those with more power than your own, situations that involve a new start or regaining something that was lost, or dealing with the threatened loss of your own power or influence. Obstacles that stand in your way at this time are likely to be the result of some type of wrongful physical actions. If you have physically abused others or yourself this must be corrected. If you have engaged in dishonest actions, they too, must be corrected. Wasting time and physical energy in the past now comes back to haunt you. Circumstances may require that the methods you use to perform your tasks and responsibilities must be more efficient. Male relationships or your contacts and activities that involve men may be troublesome. Your competitive spirit and aggressiveness is apt to be tested. This is a period when much strength and other benefits may be gained, but not without some frustrations or setbacks that test your determination to succeed.
Transit VENUS trine natal Uranus
Jan 10 through Jan 11, Exact on Jan 11
The people and situations you encounter are likely to attract you in a general sort of way. By this is meant that they appeal to most people of your particular generation. On the other hand, other people may be attracted to you at this time simply because of something you reflect that is characteristic of your generation. Under this influence you can be successful in activities that involve antiques, history, and technology. Enthusiasm for equality and justice flourishes. Cooperation, diplomacy, and sociable dispositions are also encouraged making this a fortunate period for friendships, organizations, and group activities.
Transit VENUS sextile natal Jupiter
Jan 11 through Jan 13, Exact on Jan 12
Fortunate social opportunities are at hand these days. If they do not automatically come your way, it's a signal to go out and create opportunity for yourself. Participation in social events may turn out to be extremely beneficial for you, especially if such activities are connected with religious and political interests, cultural pursuits, higher education, long distance travel, or that involve those of another race or culture. Opportunities you encounter under this influence may lead to success in publishing, advertising, or broadcasting. Joining a theater group, gourmet cooking class, or travel club may also be on your agenda. Try your luck with the lottery, horse races, or other sporting events and you may emerge a winner.
Transit VENUS trine natal Mercury
Jan 12 through Jan 14, Exact on Jan 13
During this period you can expect to receive as well as to send some good news. Now is also the time to establish successful business partnerships and other joint ventures. Under this influence you are apt to travel first class. Meetings and discussion groups can be a particularly enjoyable experience. Communications flourish. You'll know just what to say and when to say it. You may feel the urge to write a love letter, romance novel, song, poetry, or biographical sketch, and may particularly enjoy reading such material as well. Success can be achieved in many kinds of endeavors including public relations, community activities, counseling, legal matters, debates, and negotiations. The potential is also high for success should you be involved in commercial transactions related to beauty, jewelry, luxury items, books, flowers, fashions, interior design, architecture, the arts, and social planning.
Transit MARS trine natal Sun
Jan 13 through Jan 16, Exact on Jan 14
This can be an ego-boosting period in which you feel more confident that your efforts will be successful. In turn, this is the kind of attitude that attracts the people and success you are looking for. Self-promotion works very well, as does using the efforts of others to your own advantage. Other potentials imply that your physical efforts--whatever they may be-- may bring you recognition or a position of leadership, and that you may be more generous in helping others. Though this influence increases vitality, it can also promote a certain amount of laziness. If you are by nature a less-than-energetic individual, this period is not likely to galvanize you into action. It may be your good fortune however, to get others to do the work for you. Some of the most highly favored activities include those that involve men or products and services related to men, military maneuvers, sports, surgical procedures, manufacturing, and firearms. Just plain good luck can save you from accidents and other mishaps. The only word of warning is not to take things too much for granted, or become too sure of yourself.
MARS transit House Eleven
Enters on Jan 15
The most likely targets of your energetic efforts during this period include friends, organizations, and children, especially those who are not your biological offspring but for whom you may have responsibility. Under this influence, activities in general are apt to lead away from you as an individual and involve the role you play in the lives of others; as parent, lover, friend, spouse, or club member. Your schedule may become overloaded and nothing gets accomplished, making it necessary for you to place some restraints on the number of activities and people you decide to accommodate. The energizing effect of the present influence can make you more aggressive toward others, and to lose patience when things become too hectic or they don't proceed as planned. You may also be concerned with what is or is not making you happy. And such concern is apt to go beyond the stage of just thinking about it. You may actually go after what you want, or get rid of what you don't want.
Transit VENUS opposed natal Mars
Jan 16 through Jan 18, Exact on Jan 17
This influence is best described as one that promotes the classic "battle of the sexes." Passions lie much closer to the surface during this period. The most innocent flirtation or gesture is apt to inspire a physically aggressive response. Jealous females are likely to intrude. The loser in all competitive situations will not be very gracious-- which means whether or not you are the winner, you may still lose. It is best to consider that you may fit either part in any circumstances--that way you'll be better prepared to decline the role if you so desire. Social gatherings are not likely to be successful. The energy that is apt to accompany this period can be an irresistible force in stirring things up. Energetic social interactions are certainly desirable but in this case, the party can turn into a brawl. Luxurious vehicles and travel accommodations are not easy to come by for the time being. A most inauspicious time to undergo surgical procedures, especially cosmetic surgery. Overexertion when engaging in physical fitness and other physical activities may have serious consequences.
Transit JUPITER trine natal Mars
Jan 13 through Jan 22, Exact on Jan 17
During this period many things you try may seem to succeed with little or no effort, and even difficult things are easier to accomplish. In other times and different societies, hunters and warriors who began their enterprises under this influence would be expected to succeed. You may apply this to your current physical efforts. In spite of its fortunate potential however, this influence is also known to promote physical laziness and a state of contentment that discourages strong inclinations to rise to competitive situations and other challenges that come along. Knowing this, it would be in your best interests not to let inertia interfere with your physical industriousness. For whatever purpose your actions are aimed, there will be an element of luck associated with them. Even apparent failures have a way of being fortuitous in some advantageous way. After all, it is better to miss the bus than to be struck by it. Good fortune may come to you through a man, and male relationships in general are favored at this time.
Transit VENUS square natal Sun
Jan 18 through Jan 20, Exact on Jan 19
You may find yourself in disagreement with others over principles or value judgments during this period. In the end it may be a matter of having to artfully explain your position while letting others have an equal right to their own opinions. The potential for discord may cause strained relations, but it is not likely to inspire major upsets. Under this influence a situation that initially seems to threaten your integrity or ego is apt to dissipate quickly in the atmosphere of highly stimulating interactions that occur. Interactions that, for the most part, are likely to result in a tacit willingness to agree to disagree. Avoid exaggerating your own importance in social settings. Let others approach you. If they flatter and compliment you or offer a position of leadership, keep your responses modest. If, on the other hand, they offer insult or object to your presence or status, your most effective strategy is not to respond in kind.
VENUS transit House Twelve
Enters on Jan 20
By choice or circumstances you may tend to withdraw from society during this period. You are apt to find all types of excuses, legitimate or otherwise, to pass up invitations to go out-- you're too ill, you're too overweight to fit into the clothes you wanted to wear, you have too much work to do, and any number of other reasons. Under this influence romance may have to be secretive or relegated to the world of fantasy and dreams. You may be more susceptible to false flattery or unworthy attentions. Love relationships from the past, especially those in which you suffered a loss, can intrude on the present in some way. The tendency to engage in self-pity is apt to be enhanced, though you can choose to ignore it by turning your attention to helping others less fortunate than yourself.
Transit MARS trine natal Neptune
Jan 20 through Jan 22, Exact on Jan 21
This is a period to use your intuitive abilities, increase your spiritual awareness, investigate dreams and the occult, and carry out as much of your work and other physical activities as possible behind the scenes. Exactly how or by what means some task or achievement is accomplished may not be apparent, nor does it have to be. The successful result such actions are likely to produce will be clear enough to make everybody happy. Some of the most successful work and other physical activities during this period involve in one aspect or another such areas as arts and entertainment (especially dance), photography, charitable institutions, drugs, alcohol, oil, gas, marine life, water sports, and ocean cruises.
Transit VENUS trine natal Venus
Jan 22 through Jan 24, Exact on Jan 23
It would be hard to find disagreeable circumstances at the present time. You are as attracted to others as they are to you. Situations you create are as pleasant as the situations you are likely to encounter. The only trouble, if you think there needs to be trouble, is that everything may be just a bit too nice. If you need a more competitive or aggressive atmosphere to stir you into action, this is not the time to expect to find it. Should you happen to find or stir up such agitated situations, they are not likely to result in anything productive or enjoyable. Under this influence activities related to fashion, design, and the arts are successful.
Transit MARS opposed natal Pluto
Jan 23 through Jan 25, Exact on Jan 24
Opposing forces you encounter during this period have a paralyzing effect. A contest of wills is to be avoided at all costs. Efforts to gain control of any kind are apt to produce the opposite effect. This is not a time to change or interfere with the status quo of things. Deliberately engaging the hostility of another is to arouse a formidable opponent you might not otherwise have had to confront. Manipulations are a waste of time which doesn't leave much except the direct approach, a method with the same potential result. If you realize that the current circumstances are likely to present no means at all to gain the upper hand or maneuver situations to your advantage, you are correct. Act accordingly.
Transit SUN trine natal Sun
Jan 24 through Jan 26, Exact on Jan 25
Under this influence you may have a more positive sense of your own uniqueness, an inner contentment perhaps. If troubling circumstances do occur under this fortunate influence, you may escape at least some of the disappointment, anger, or dislocation you might otherwise have had to endure. If, on the other hand, current circumstances are good, your increased self-confidence and vitality make them even better. A good time to enjoy the world and your place in it.
SUN transit House Eleven
Enters on Jan 26
Under the present influence you are concerned with the material rewards or the tangible recognition you receive for your efforts. You may become more aggressive in seeking greater financial compensation from your career or work in other areas. This is a period of involvement with understanding what and who you need in your life in order to be a happy, productive individual. Part of the answer is found in the roles you play in the lives of others; the satisfaction you derive from being a friend, lover, parent, child, fellow club member, social contact, or business associate. The quality of these relationships and the importance you attach to them may seem more vital. If you tend to be a loner, you may have more of a desire for the companionship of others. If you have many friends and contacts, you tend to assess your personal influence and status with them-- and as a result may become more assertive or even manipulative in these relationships. The negative potential of this period promotes stubborn pride and arrogance; a potential you may wish to avoid or run the risk of severely straining your relationships and organizational affiliations. The positive potential suggests situations in which you will exhibit personal generosity, integrity, and inspiring leadership.
Transit VENUS sextile natal Moon
Jan 26 through Jan 28, Exact on Jan 27
Romance and/or the pleasant atmosphere of polite manners and agreeable dispositions may be a vital part of your current circumstances, giving you a chance to improve the quality and enjoyment of life. This period may provide an excellent opportunity to express your feelings to a romantic partner, spouse, family members, female friends, and children. A cooperative attitude and conciliatory gestures on your part may also result in better relationships with disgruntled relatives. Under this influence a chance encounter may ultimately lead to enhancing the attractiveness and harmony of your domestic environment, enjoying amiable dinner parties and other social activities in your home-- and for you personally, perhaps to making an improvement in diet, health, or physical attractiveness.
Transit MARS opposed natal Saturn
Jan 28 through Jan 31, Exact on Jan 30
Any short cut you attempt in order to make things easier during this period is apt to have undesirable results. You may waste more time and energy trying to get around the rules than if you had just complied with them in the first place. You resist, perhaps even resent, the authority of others and what may be worse, you are just as likely to encounter the very same attitude in others should you try to impose your own authority. Under this influence attempts at organization or to put some structure and purpose into projects and other physical efforts are going to be difficult, and more than one task may be abandoned in discouragement. Delay turns into cancellation, and anger thwarts the prudent dictates of maturity and experience. A certain amount of caution is necessary since there is increased potential for accidents to your teeth or bones and flare-ups of chronic ailments.
Transit SUN trine natal Neptune
Jan 30 through Jan 31, Exact on Jan 31
A time when others, especially superiors, may be impressed with your imagination, spirituality, and sensitivity. They may also be impressed with your charitable acts or your skills in such particular areas as those that involve photography, swimming, sailing, water sports or therapy, or dancing. With or without the presence of superiors or other people around all the same things may nevertheless be enhanced for you in some way. Activities especially favored now also include covert activities and handling highly confidential matters. Others may be attracted to you, or you to them, by something that seems unattainable or mysterious. This is a time to follow hunches, pay attention to dreams, and allow yourself to become truly inspired spiritually and artistically in whatever way
presents itself.
