Monthly Horoscopes January 2017
Mercury retrograde continues until January 8th, which means we must be proceed carefully and actively work to avoid miscommunication. This is a ripe time for planting new seeds in fertile ground, making this the perfect time to embrace change and new ways of doing things, as there's a tremendous amount of creative potential for transformation and growth. If you haven’t made your new year’s resolution yet, now is the time. This month we see themes of receptivity and experimentation in conversation with one another and we are not just witnesses, we are going to be part of that discussion. The universe is taking attendance. Are you here? Commit to doing something new everyday from a place of positive expectation. We are all being called to determine where our positive points of attraction lie. This is the quotient for success in 2017. We have a full moon in Cancer on the 12th, where she's happiest. We will want to stay close to home. Look for nourishing environments that reward you for diving deeply into questions about your superpowers. The new moon in Aquarius on January 28th puts our relationships and our resources on blast and many of us get that push we've been waiting for to forge ahead on new projects and ideas. It’s all happening.

The light at the end of the tunnel begins to appear, Capricorn! However, you'll have to play your cards right to see it. Say what you mean and mean what you say as you move through your relationships. Communication is key for you and can mean the difference between success and failure aka a do-over (do you really want a do-over of some of those heart-wrenching lessons from 2016?)Keep your cool, and put the grand master plans on hold until February.
You pull all the weeds out of the ground this month as you begin to understand and accept what no longer serves you in your life at this time. This will help you to see how your unique gifts are connected to the communities around you. Be open to new and improved understandings of yourself and others this month.

Stop. Rewind. Play. Much like the analog days of old, your life will be like the quintessential mix-tape this month. Your life this month will be on your terms for the most part, but your manual dexterity will be taking place purely on a psychic level. This means you have some serious self-reflection to do, and you’re ready now more than ever to tae it. Sure, you are going to confront some reflections of yourself that may not feel the best at first, but be open to these experiences. Pretend you're a scientist curiously witnessing an exhilarating natural phenomenon, and that phenomenon is you. Seriously, put yourself out there to see just how majestic you are. Get offline, and go out into the physical world. Meet people in the flesh. Enjoy the wonders of the the third dimension and watch your understanding of your life grow in leaps and bounds. In anticipation of your birthday, the new moon on the 28th gives you an opportunity to push forward con gusto on all your goals for the year. This is the time to create a blueprint for your new self with a vision board. It’s time for a spiritual makeover.

This month, you feel like bustin' loose, Pisces. You had a great opportunity to see the full spectrum of your power in 2016, and you’re going to start the year off with the benefits of those experiences in your back pocket. You have been given great responsibility and you should pat yourself on the back for rising impeccably to honor that. This has gifted you with a third, fourth and fifth eye that enable you to see beyond appearances and into the souls of people, places and things. You are still healing some of those old wounds but now it's happening from a sweeter, richer, and more conscious place. Have fun with it! You will encounter haters, but your best comeback is rooted in grace and creativity, so let your success silence your haters. If you didn't know how magical you were in 2016, January does not hesitate to remind you.

Anxiety and stress continue into January, but we are all going to be alright. Make plans at the end of month for negotiations and agreements. Mercury will throw a monkey wrench in your communication with people, and you’ll find yourself seeing the worst in everything and everyone. As layers are peeled back and secrets uncovered, you’ll feel like guarding yourself against duplicity, jealousy and inauthenticity. Be aware of these feelings, but know that not everyone is out to get you. You are in a fantastic period of self-analysis and self-discovery, and at the end of the month, your confidence and enthusiasm will be supercharged. You'll want to dive into what creates meaning in your life, making this a great time to move forward on long-term goals. Assertiveness and ambition return at end of this month, so if you’ve been feeling the effects of seasonal affective disorder, or your depression has been triggered lately, you’ll be feeling better soon. Self-care should come first for you this month, so avoid spending excess energy on power struggles and choose your battles wherever you can

Any leftover optimism from 2016 will rollover into this month. You will feel more of a connection to your family, friends and spiritually your life mirrors back the meaning you have been searching for. Translation: Everything you’re looking for is right in front of you. Clear thinking and good judgment are in full effect and your instincts are intact. Leave financial decisions until the end of the month when an increase in physical energy and self-confidence will be on wax. You will have the chance to choose between the sweet and the bitter this month. Understand your own barometer for fear and anxiety, because it may be easy to slip into paranoia and delusion. (Don’t believe everything you think.)
Reset your goals this month. What feels good? What needs to go? This month favors your social side: dating and making new friends is in your favor right now. Bonding with your community, and expressing your feelings is also a good idea. You will have a greater capacity for emotionally intelligent communication. Now is the time to tell the people you love most how you really feel. Your relationships will grow stronger — particularly those that are spiritual in nature. Creative hobbies, relaxing, and anything that inspires beauty in you or around you is a priority. Stay away from harsh environments and negativity this month. You will shine at the end of the month where negotiations, presentations, promotions, studies, exams go your way. Don't be knocked off course if you have a confidence crisis at end of the month. Authority figures get under your skin. Stay in your lane, and preserve what you have instead of going for the gold right now. You may feel some pressure but you got this. Conjure your courage, and your grace.

Energy is low at the start of the month. Pent up energy explodes, and you may want to assert yourself more aggressively this month. Release the intensity through a great cardio workout, a dance class or some fierce self-love rituals. Difficulties arise in love relationships. Treat others how you want to be treated. Be honest and willing to be vulnerable. What you put out comes back to you. Be careful not to over-indulge on spending. You may meet a new love, which is possibly romantic but the connection is ultimately spiritual in nature. Do some inventory of your personal relationships to get a grip on what you need to let go of and what you need to give thanks for and hold onto.
This needs to happen before a connection with someone new becomes active. You may want to live in your dreams at the month's end. Inner feelings of calm and balance at the month's end show up in harmonious relationships around you. All your strategizing pays off. Goals are easily within reach and you receive static and resistance-free love from others. At the tail-end of month, you feel stronger and more vibrant, making you ready to seek and find what you genuinely wish to experience. Just make sure you know what that is so you don’t miss it.

I hope you have a website. If you don't, you better get one because self-promotion is your key to the big and bad achievement of all your most cherished goals. This is a prosperous year for you, Cancer. Mercury's energy continues to do that thing that we love at the beginning of the month (it’s still retrograde), and yes, it's not always comforting. You may have been nervous, lost items, experienced delays or tech issues. You may have been dwelling on and reminiscing about the past ever since an old friend resurfaced in some way. All of this has been priming you to be the emotionally resilient sorceress that you are.
Take time to come from love and integrity before you speak this month. Your words have staying power. In all your communications, try to respond instead of react in your arguments. Read and re-read all your emails before you hit send. There will be an end to a worry that you've been holding onto. Things are happening quickly, be careful not to overcommit yourself to multiple projects and events. You'll have creative bursts of energy that you can use to move forward positively but they need to be given a clear container. Go with the flow of what is taking place and don't fight the current. Visualize who you want to be and dream baby, dream. The cosmos are listening.

Family and emotional matters are front and center this month. Keep your efforts on strategizing and planning ahead for future goals. Use those legendary flames toward a practice of self-will and determination. Be flexible and listen to others with patience. You may make changes in the direction of your studies or career goals as the powers that be support your process of upgrading yourself. You’ll feel charged up with confidence at the end of the month, but please, dear Leo, keep your ego in check. New romance and some strange experiences will wink at you in the beginning of the month, and you may experience some resistance to your goals from friends and colleagues. Don't let it get you down. Think about the long-term and be sure to use direct yet tactful communication in all your endeavors. Do this, and you'll cruise through January like the champion you are.

Your social life receives a love injection with a touch of the strange carried over from last month. Energy and confidence are on the wane at the beginning of the month. Choose your battles and think about the bigger picture. How can your choices benefit everyone involved? You receive more clarity towards the end of the month, and you’ll have some insight into a grander version of yourself — but only if you are open to it.
Keeping yourself in check is easy if you remember to let the people in your life be your mirror. You are well-positioned to sign any agreements in the first five days of the month. Love nudges may find you surrounded by a cadre of suitors. Keep your bar high, and you won't be disappointed. Be frugal wherever you can. You’re prone to making a good impression curing the middle and end of January, so don't be afraid to let yourself be seen. You may be called to mediate a conflict this month. Your words are healing and your environment is receptive. Speak with your heart and watch magic happen. Messages from beyond will be coming to you in a dream, a meditation or a spontaneous encounter. Be sure to record what you hear, because your findings will end up being a roadmap for you in the coming months.

Communication is still a little complicated due to Mercury retrograde. Your instincts aren't going to be at 100 until mid-month, so be careful with your words and judgments. You are seeing everything and everyone, including yourself, through a shadowy filter right now. Be patient, breathe, and remember you can choose not to wear your negative thoughts. All the chaos starts to level out mid-month but save your most important decisions until the month's end. Character tests abound with authority figures, and you may start to feel some pressure and resistance from others. However, you still have the power to persuade and to provide that infamous Libra balance in all your relationships. To avoid drama, make sure your goals are noble and your plans are sound. You'll thank yourself later.

Dear Scorpio, January is a busy month and rest assured, you will find yourself in a groove of steady brilliance. Expect good news. You carry that can-do attitude that you hammered into your consciousness in December, right up into the new year. January is full of all kinds of opportunities to transform any conditions in your life that are less than desirable. You are dressed for success inside and out at the onset of the month. Your thoughts are energized with positivity which will light your creativity and give you an extra dose of fabulous in the middle of the month. Your end-of-month may have a bit of turbulence as the higher-ups introduce some opposition to your diabolical plans. This could be a parent, teacher, or coach. Remember that attitude of gratitude is always your best approach.

Think it through, think it through, think it through, Sagittarius! January demands that you get clear with yourself and your relationships, particularly with family. Your ambition has a head on collision with your compassion and you'll find yourself navigating murky emotional depths for most of the month. View your experience as an invitation to become a subterranean Goddess. There are gifts in the world of shadow for you, but you have to be willing to let go of your own masks to receive them. You're able to communicate your thoughts more productively (and with an audience that listens!) at the end of the month. Let growth and awareness be your mantra this month and you'll continue to wear that Sagittarian cape of wonder, that only you four legged geniuses can rock.
