Astrology Forecast for January 27 – Feb. 2, 2014
No squawking! These two retrogrades, in such quick succession, do have a beneficial purpose. The focus of the Venus retrograde has been reevaluating priorities. Next month is suited to researching, reorganizing, and thinking things through carefully — or rather, sitting carefully with the emotional sensations and information.
For now, notice the shift, from awareness of the bottom line in every calculation to a greater sense of interconnectedness. It’s subtle, but you can detect it. Use Mercury’s dip into Pisces — he’ll back into Aquarius during his coming retrograde — to absorb information, while the energies of the Aquarian New Moon help you gain perspective. It’s another way of bridging the rational and nonrational, which is the thrust of existence these days.
Monday: Make hay while the sun shines! You’ve got the drive, and you’re spending energy productively and wisely. Circumstances are cooperating, too, and so are people. Tackle what you can before 5:03 PM EST, when the Moon goes void of course (what that means) for the night. Kick back, relax and regroup.
Tuesday: The Moon enters the practical ground of Capricorn at 12:05 AM EDT. Emotionally processing change is the order of business for the day. Sharpen your focus (even more than you already have since mid-December). Take a hard and honest look at the state and quality of your nurturing. Break from situations that do not feed you, and take a chance on ones (and people) that feel appropriate and promising. At least one of those is the day’s payoff. Show yourself (your real self); revel in yourself; communicate your self. Someone gets you. Someone really gets you.
