Astrology highlights for the week of January 8, 2023:
00:50 – This week's theme is: Slow and Steady! This week's three big things are: First, Mercury (communication) in Capricorn trines Uranus (genius, sudden changes, lightning strikes, great awakenings) in Taurus. Both planets are retrograde; they appear to be moving backward. Trines are harmonious; there is easy flow. Capricorn is the sign of business, our ambitions, and what we want to achieve. Taurus is the sign of our resources and values. Will you mine from your experience, and come up with an excellent idea for how you want to move forward?
03:20 – Second, Mars stations direct FINALLY! Mars has been in Gemini since August 20, 2022. On November 30, 2022, it stationed retrograde at 25 degrees Gemini. It's stationing direct at 8 degrees of Gemini. It will be treading over old ground for a few more weeks. Things that are stalled may get some momentum forward. Have you experienced scattered thinking? Use your breath to calm and ground. When Mars stationed retrograde, it did so in a square to Neptune – the planet of illusion and delusion; it was also in a quincunx to Pluto (transformation, chaos and rebirth). This backdrop happened between two eclipses, and there was some big news items: the purchase of Twitter by Elon Musk; the terrible Idaho murders of four college students; the "bomb cyclone" in the USA (Buffalo, NY was especially hard hit); the Southwest Airlines meltdown; Greta Thunberg taking down Andrew Tate when he publicly tried to make fun of her, and it backfired; and all of the fake accounts going around, especially on Instagram (Note: Celeste ONLY has one IG account: @astrologybyceleste); and all kinds of unexpected happenings related to the World Cup.
12:52 – Third, we have a Last Quarter (LQ) Moon at 24 Libra on Saturday. Libra is an air sign with a focus on partnership. Libra is represented by the scales. How can you find balance in relationships? This LQ Moon is conjunct the fixed star Spica, which is related to marriage, success, and creativity. LQ Moons are a great time to consider what lessons have been learned in the previous 3-week cycle and the previous 27-month cycle (which began October 16, 2020). Touchpoints in this cycle also occurred on July 17, 2021, and April 16, 2022. What story knits together when you consider these dates?
17:30 – On Sunday, the theme is ANCHOR. What tools help keep you steady and stable? Use them this week.
20:12 – On Monday, the word of the day is COOPERATION. Conflict can escalate quickly. Seek win-win solutions.
