AQUARIUS (1/20-2/18): Your reputation for being erratic and unpredictable is in jeopardy of making you look more stable and your actions foreseeable. That doesn’t mean you have become boring. It just may appear puzzling how absorbed you can be with your projects at home, or your focus on self-understanding. This is a good month to continue that way because you are very much in touch with your true, core self. There is so much to learn there because you have spent your life gathering knowledge. A lot of that learning process has had to do with what you read or observed. Sometimes, you learn by stirring up a little trouble to see how people deal with various situations that you create. Your Ruling Planet, Uranus (along with Saturn), has added this annoying stability to your life over the past 4 years. That’s how long Uranus has dwelled in the routine-oriented Sign of Taurus. Mercury aligns with Uranus on the 4th, which will give you a clear understanding and appreciation of what you have been learning about Taurean factors like stability, logic, earthiness, and money. Money has shown up in unexpected ways during this 4 year grounding experience. Your home life has taken on a new excitement during this same time. It has become an expanded connection with the internet or world events on the news. It’s all part of a preparation for some great happiness in 3 years. You are becoming a very fascinating individual, which will be a gift to whoever comes into your personal romantic life in the future. So, the 4th is very good for understanding what you have been wrapped up with and how it reveals the real you at your core. Communications may have been very exciting from the Full Moon of the day before. The 4th then becomes a time of analyzing and learning what it all means. While the Sun passes through Gemini, it points out and lights up areas where great happiness can be found. You may have to use willpower to overcome your lack of inertia. Not to worry because your move into more romantic or creative realms will be as natural as breathing after the 17th. Go where you are drawn to go, but stay safe, especially on the 25th and 26th as rashness can cause injury. The 17th starts a playtime, which is much needed as a break from your serious demeanor of late. Enjoy the recreational energy, which will only add to your need to re-create who you are and who you want to become. It’s a nice focus for you at this time.

AQUARIUS (1/20-2/18): The “water” that the Water Bearers symbolically pour upon the Earth for others does not make you a Water Sign. Aquarius is the 3rd Air Sign. Air is about communication, and the water is representative of knowledge that shows your way of doing for others. As a humanitarian Sign, the water is your way of helping others who need your advice. Some people are already submerged in water, so they may resent your dumping more than they can swallow, or swim in. Your Sign Ruler is Uranus. It has been stuck in a Sign that constrains your freedom. It’s been there for 4 years, already, with another 3 years to go. For some reason, it keeps you focused on domestic issues, so there are fewer Aquarians out in public than we usually see. That’s ok. You are building a strong base to operate from. Once Uranus moves into Gemini in 3 years you will be well-grounded with your thoughts and speeches. You will be unchained from the restraints of home and family troubles. You will have a strong foundation that others can relate to rather than rolling their eyes at your futuristic ideas. Meanwhile, you can sit and learn what the World changes are all about. Your thoughts and ideas will be well developed by the time you get to the lighter element of Gemini. There is a light at the end of this tunnel and it’s not an oncoming train. It will be more like a spotlight that will heighten your appeal to the masses, or at least the friends you reach out to with your guidance. The full Moon of the 5th is likely to bring a dramatic change to your life work or your standing in the World. Keep a low profile for a few months because this is a long term influence that can keep you at the end of the line. The Sun moves to an annual conjunction with your planet on the 9th. This will feel like AAA coming to pull you out of the mud where you may feel stuck. There are other muddy traps along your road, so proceed carefully. Some good news also arrives on the 26th as life handles you with velvet gloves. Fine dining and pleasant company could make you wonder what’s going on. Try not to question a time of pleasure and love. It might feel odd, but it is meant to give hope.

AQUARIUS (1/20-2/18): It seems that Saturn’s departure from your Sign just as Pluto enters from another door has you frozen in place most of this month. No major aspects until the end of the month. You get to pick the course you freely want to take without interference. The Pluto effect on you can come from 3 different levels. You could be victimized by people and events of the snake level or the level of the Scorpion, or the level of the eagle, which is the best. These are people who live without anger toward the way life is. You are learning to be of the latter level, or the ladder level. While you are in “pause mode”, the World keeps turning around. The full Moon on the 5th, takes you to this higher-minded state (could that be New Mexico?). JK, you actually become more philosophical or religious-minded. Relationships may become a larger part of your World or they may become more of a philosophical change of thought. The evening of the 19th has a Solar Eclipse to add some drama to our lives. For you, it can mean letting go of your usual way of thinking about things or people. Take extreme care with your car, even at home. It’s not the best time to have people over. Words can lead to fights. The 19th/20th is loaded with an erratic energy. Children are more prone to violence or accidents. They may need extra protection for a length of months after this Eclipse. It only becomes your job when you notice unusual activity in the neighborhood. There may be times when you long for the way things used to be. You may even be itching like a base stealer to run for it, but you will never reach base safely, this month. You are stuck in this new place where dreams seem to be real, at first. It’s a place where emotions fill rivers. Life seems to get more decorated with artistic crafts and outer space is just another ocean to cross, someday. It’s a World where your sensibilities may get lost in a fog for periods of time. It’s a beautiful World, but good information may be more difficult to ascertain. The change of Saturn from Aquarius to Pisces requires a careful approach to all matters of importance. Try to relax like an ocean cruise after a couple of years of jetting all over.

AQUARIUS (1/20-2/18): Do you feel the weight of the World lifting off your chest? As Saturn leaves your Sign this month, you may experience moments of weightlessness from a release of a thumb you may have been under. You are strengthened by an opportune aspect from the Sun and the full Moon on the 7th as Saturn leaves your Sign that day. This is very significant for the good life ahead after dealing with the heaviness of the past 2 ½ years. At least you have paid a large portion of your karmic debt. By looking back over your trials and tribulations, you will have a clear understanding of your life lessons. The things which caused you to feel the most restricted, can now be seen for the importance they were. Much has been a challenge, but now look at the mental muscles you have developed. Life has a way of making us stronger when we overcome our karma. You may have felt over-burdened the last couple of years, but someone wrote in the Bible that we are not given more of a load than we can deal with. Otherwise, there would be an entire planet of defeated humans. Ukraine seems like the most unbearable karma to overcome, but just imagine the powerful individuals who will emerge from the battles. You will become a tower of power, more and more, as your new future unfolds. World changes are coming this month and future months. You have been tempered like steel to withstand what lies ahead. Feel your confidence surge as you lead the way for many who feel despondent in the face of these changes. Flex your muscles, which have grown from your heavy lift. Smile as you uplift others with your new awareness of how to do that. Love and peace are the rewards at the end of March. March is no longer a hard march. Now, you can put on some flip flops and relax.

AQUARIUS (1/20-2/18): The Sign of the Water Bearers will be happy to see Saturn leaving your Sign because it has not been a fun time as far as earnings are concerned. Saturn has forced most Aquarians to knuckle down to attain the success they desire. You haven’t always been your fun-loving self except when you celebrate your victories, which have come from serious hard efforts. Saturn just wanted you to realize that success comes from hard work and self-discipline. This has been your mode of conduct for 2 ½ years. As your co-ruler, Saturn, moves into the Sign of Pisces next month. It will loosen up that “nose to the grindstone” way of  thinking. You will find that you have a choice to be more creative and enjoy a little “escapism” for a change without feeling guilty about it. New ideas will fill your mind and lead you into expansive ways to earn more moolah. Strangely, some of the people closest to you may think you have gone off the deep end, but the Universe wants you to dive in, and the deep end is the safest place to dive. You may even feel some hesitation about all this near the third as old methods could feel like the right way to be. By the 8th, you could have a strong motivation to take that dive because you will see the beauty of it all. It’s right there along your current path, but you may have to change your way of working for your security. It will be fun and a sense of liberation that will come from the swim you are about to take. Next month is time to put on your “Marching boots” after you swim to this new island where you’ve wanted to go for some time. It may take several months to feel comfortable in this new place of greenery and hopefulness, but you have learned patience while Uranus has been bogged down in a world of too much concern and financial responsibility. You may want to spend more on your home, and that’s the right place to put your money. Buying land will be a steadily growing place to insure your retirement years. On the 21st, your thoughts may turn fearful for your security again, but don’t worry the Universe is giving you a green light to “go for it”. Your only obstacle is your fear of risking what you have if you make changes, but just don’t risk it all. Only risk what you can afford to lose, but I don’t see much danger here except for 10% of Aquarians who may have bad aspects in their birth charts. See a good astrologer like me if you feel anticipatory. Yay, for exciting times ahead!

AQUARIUS (1/20-2/18): Uranus finally will end its long retrograde phase, which has made progress very difficult over the past 4+ months. On the day of the 22nd, there will be a dramatic message spelled out as it is also the start of the Chinese New Year. There can be many different expressions of this conscious raising pathway, which lies before all of humanity. So, that’s the energy for the next year and Aquarius would be the best Sign to make sense of these impulses of energy. There are good opportunities to finalize your plans for the year. You have the first 3 weeks to organize your future. Write it down in ink, so you won’t scatter your efforts by changing your goal. The goal is an absolute affirmation of your intention. You will have time left over to be your radical self. People expect it from you. A person of professional experience could be sought out on the 5th. That would be a smart move on your part. The 8th continues a time of secret conversations. You may be surprised at what you learn. Things at work may become more cost effective, which is only good if you work for yourself. The exciting news you heard on the 8th, is beginning to manifest near the 29th. Though this energy affects all people in different ways, it will be exciting for all Aquarians, and Aquarian related matters. Science will have amazing announcements. There could be solutions to the homelessness. Fill yourself with the abundant optimism, which seems to fill the air. The final 3rd of January is a glimpse of how good this year can be. Get out your “glad clothes” to match the possible joyfulness all around.
