Above, Venus and the Moon are seen moving into “conjunction” (center) — close proximity to one another (courtesy of the Wikimedia Commons).

As the Moon grows full (it’s in a “Waxing Gibbous” phase now — 86% of Full), you should feel its energy gathering about you this weekend and into the next week when it turns Full (Tues. 1/22). The Moon also “trines” (lines up at 120 degrees) Neptune on Saturday, which makes for some really dreamy potentialities. This is a good time to go off on an adventure. It’s a good time for lovers to explore fantasies. Be careful that all this romancing and imaginary play-time doesn’t take you too far out of “reality” — keep at least one foot grounded on good old Earth.

“Venus (Love) paired with Pluto (Renewal) offers you a good opportunity to work through relationship struggles to get to a new phase.”

Another thing happening in the heavens Sunday, 1/20, is that the Sun moves into Aquarius, a creative, and freedom loving sign. This can be a time when you will embrace change, and in these days of high-technology, change is an everyday thing. Remember, this is the age of Aquarius, so as you work through your New Year’s resolutions it will be good to think about creative ways to approach your career, family, and relationships.

Two more interesting celestial events happen this week, when Mercury conjuncts Neptune (Tuesday) and Venus conjuncts Pluto (Wednesday). Conjunctions are an event noted by both Astronomers and Astrologers, and it means that the two planets are seen close together from Earth. In Astrology, the planets in conjunction both act together and upon one another. So, for us this brings Mercury (Communication), and Neptune (Imagination) together, and we can use the combine energy to work on, present, and tell others about creative projects. Venus (Love) paired with Pluto (Renewal) offers you a good opportunity to work through relationship struggles to get to a new phase. Put the two together, romantic wise, and on Tuesday, when you speak about some creative notions you have for your relationship, this can be the catalyst to break you out of the lull you’ve been in. It might feel like a bit of a struggle, but everything that is born anew does for a brief time. Rely on your strength of Spirit and walk with God.
