Jan 2023 Astrology Forecast
Happy New Year beautiful souls!
Numerological significance of the number 1 ( as in the first month of the year) represents " initiative " and 2+0+2+3= 7 - New beginnings with change in many ways based on our previous labour and efforts....
First half expect it to be slow as the retrograde planets will be changing course to move direct by the middle of the month. So energies might feel stagnant initially.
Mars ( planet of action) and Uranus the (planet of sudden change) will be slowing down in their retrograde currently and ready to go direct in the signs of Aries and Taurus. Mercury has been in retrograde since the end of Dec until mid Jan. Finally they will be moving forward Mercury ( planet of intellect ) In retrograde until the Jan 18.
But around 14th of Jan with Sun moving into Capricorn there will be a shift in the energies.
Sun will move from the southern to northern hemisphere. The days are longer more energy in internal drive to move things forward in our individual realities.
All three outer planets completing their retrograde is a good time to see energies pick up in the micro and macrocosmic levels in general. This is a poweful time to start experiencing a forward motion in many areas of our life, including our daily routines.
With retrogrades there are confusions, delays and obstacles. But with direct motions we have more enthusiasm and drive.
The next few months will be the result giving time.
Some important dates to look out for
Jan 1- Venus conjunct Pluto- they can create extreme emotional transformations, death and rebirth in close relations. With Pluto all things are extreme. There is a power struggle of expression since mercury is retrograde. Sudden flare of deep obsession and control will surface.
With Jan 7th Full Moon in Gemini in the Purnarvasu nakshatra the lord of Gemini at this time is in a conjunction with the Sun.. We can expect more logic in expressing our emotions, rebuilding our relations and increasing our knowlage.
Jan 12, Mars becomes direct at Rohini nakshatra, a time to reflect over the past 6 months. Revive back your energy, passion, keep in mind the lessons learned in the past 6 months,
