The Astrologer’s Diary: 15-21 January 2018

True Prediction from August 17th 2016 - WATCH OUT FOR A COVER-UP INVOLVING CAROLINA IN AUGUST 2017 Eclipses always mean we don’t know/can’t see – but with astrology, at least we can look a little harder. The Solar Eclipse crosses Carolina and that particular part of the United States has been an issue for horoscope-watchers since the 2016 Election. What took place in Carolina before 2016 election day is part of a cover-up, according to all the laws of astrology, and that cover-up will take place when the eclipse throws Carolina into darkness, on August 21st 2017. You can see a good depiction of this at The Great American Eclipse website, below. The Daily News story about a rather unusual Carolina connection between Russia and Donald Trump, follows. THE NEW YORK TIMES JANUARY 10th 2018 - BOOM!

Aries: 15-21 January 2018

Jupiter in Scorpio continues to show you solutions or opportunities, where your finances, property, business interests, charity or precious possessions are concerned. You only get this cycle once every 12 years so make the most of it. Very close to Wednesday you will also see a new beginning in your chosen field, work space, university – or where your unpaid work is concerned. This is the result of a deep change in the balance of power, which you have been aware of all month. This week is also very much about the circle of friends, or more formal group, you are involved with. Commitment, karma and the protection of the future are all themes. There may literally be an engagement or wedding here, or the commitment may be symbolic, so your friendships and team involvements pose a question, or pop a question in some way. The karma may be clear to you; this is either a variation on a theme you know from years ago, or there is a sense of past life memory filtering through. What you begin this week, with this friend or this network of people, will very much set up February and you’ll need to weigh up all the pros and cons.

Taurus: 15-21 January 2018

Taurus, we have three stories this week. One is about foreign or regional differences, and continues a month-long theme in your life. Another is about your former, current or potential partner. The third story is about your status and success. What you will notice most about those who come from a different part of the map, or who have such a vastly different culture to your own, is the challenge. The challenge brings a reward and that is to feel in charge of your own self and your own priorities. The Jupiter-Pluto sextile this week is unusual and this is a pretty unusual time, when you are figuring out how to play the politics involved. I mentioned success and status as well. Perhaps this dovetails with the foreign or regional differences I mentioned, but in any case, the time has come to look at the pros and cons of a commitment. This is the time of year when people start new projects, hire, fire, resign or reshuffle so perhaps it is really not that surprising. At the same time, any situation where you or others must ‘wed’ a new situation requires a fairly thoughtful process of engagement, so although February is calling you already, time must be taken to make the right choice. Finally, Taurus, on a related theme, you really do need to go back to the person you have singled out (or once did) as your other half. There is a huge, open door here for the second time in a few weeks, no matter if you need to get further in, or just get out in some way.

Gemini: 15-21 January 2018

Gemini, the soundtrack to January has been Money by The Beatles and also Money by Pink Floyd. We all know what it can do in terms of residences, security, lifestyle, and the rest. What about power and control, either for yourself or others? The melody lingers on. In fact, this week is likely to show you in no uncertain terms just how potent a row of numbers can be. As ever, the message is to run your own life and be the boss of your own self, and that takes self-control. The second horoscope pattern this week is also familiar – you are in front of an open door that leads to a genuine solution or tempting opportunity, relating to your lifestyle and daily workload. This would make everything better and perhaps so much bigger, so don’t wait to be invited twice. It may not come again. The final pattern in your chart this week involves foreign people or places; perhaps some regional differences across your own country. Commitment brings benefits. It also brings definite disadvantages and certain risks. Nobody would expect any commitment to be rushed at the moment. In fact, there is a great deal to be done in terms of protecting the future. One can always say ‘No’ and this may be true for you or someone else. A ‘yes’ seems more likely, if only because certain promises and pledges do bring advantages too. This is a classic cycle (stretching into February) for moving, emigrating, travelling, exporting, importing and so on.

Cancer: 15-21 January 2018

As you have known since just before Christmas, January was always going to be about the man (or woman) in your life. Maybe about an enemy, if your former, current or potential partner is not an issue. In any case, Pluto’s sextile to Jupiter this week is powerful stuff. You have reached one of those particular moments in a relationship or a battle, where you have to run your own self and own life, or give your power away to another person – perhaps to a situation which is bigger than both of you. Sometimes bigger changes affecting a partner can come on this cycle too – take your time. Feeling in charge and being in charge will make a difference, and this applies no matter how potent the other person seems to be. One really key element in all of this is your son or daughter; godchildren; stepchildren; adoption; fertility; pregnancy; young relatives. In fact, you hold a fantastic set of cards there, and this will make this rather complicated game much easier to play. Cancer, there is also a story about money, property, possessions, charity or business emerging now. In fact, it could be the sort of story that begins with a sentence and gives you ten chapters by next week. The crucial asteroid Juno is involved so there is clearly some kind of commitment here. A typical example would be a divorce or marriage; either way the mortgage is on the line. Your own personal life and personal birth chart will show you the exact nature of who/what is being ‘wedded’ or ‘married’ as February comes around. As with any commitment, there are pros and cons. Turning these over, or watching someone else do this, is a big part of this week.

Leo: 15-21 January 2018

This week we find Minerva, Vulcano, Venus, the Sun and Bacchus all entering your opposite sign of Aquarius. The time has come to focus hard on your former, current or potential partner. There is a big story going on here. Minerva is Jupiter’s wise daughter and his counsellor and advisor. She’s a powerful asteroid in your chart. Vulcano is the cuckolded husband of Venus, who was discovered in bed with Mars. He’s also pretty powerful, even though he’s not a planet. Venus herself is the goddess of desire, lust, jealousy, seduction and sex who is often given over to ‘love’ even though she has nothing at all to do with deep soul connection! The Sun turns a spotlight on the whole lot, and Bacchus is – of course – the asteroid we associate with pleasure and hedonism. How on earth can one person carry all that with them? The truth is, this particular human being in your life certainly can, or maybe you even have two choices. February is certainly going to be interesting, given what January has begun. The other key factors this week are the ongoing question of your own power and control in a highly political work, study, voluntary work or housework situation. This has been building for three weeks and the fact is, you can’t answer the questions about control unless you also figure out how your own physical condition and physical state is playing its part. There is also a substantial opportunity or solution which would make such a welcome difference to your home, home town, homeland, household or family and I don’t think you’ll need asking twice.

Virgo: 15-21 January 2018

This week is a real clincher in terms of the path you have been on since New Year’s Eve, specifically with lovers or children. Maybe younger people as a whole (it happens) but it is far more likely to be about those ongoing questions regarding other people’s offspring and your relationship with them – or your son’s situation. Maybe it’s about a new spouse who wants a child, or who does not want a child or who can’t have a child. Your own situation is intensely personal to you and depends on your birth chart. Virgo, the point is, this goes way beyond the actual paper description and into some deep, deep questions about how powerful you feel in the world and how much control you want. It also touches on those issues for a key person. The Jupiter-Pluto sextile this week puts the tin lid on it and we could say, it’s about the relationship, the baby or child question, the young adult/s in your world – but actually it’s about your power. The time is right for a choice either way and heaven knows you have had enough weeks of intensity to justify some kind of epic final decision. You have a very particular and personal relationship with the world of younger people and that junior generation, behind your own. You now have to play it your way, after some eight or nine years of various life-changing experiences. About time too. Virgo, what else is going on this week? You should really be behind a computer, microphone, fountain pen or telephone as the words or pictures you are working with, are blessed. This may or may not join the dots with your work, but your zone of daily labour, service, duty and effort is showing a ton of patterns now. You’re figuring out the people side of the equation now, ahead of February, which is the most important month of all, if you are interested in nailing down how your paid or unpaid work is going to serve you this year, and what it’s going to depend on.

Libra: 15-21 January 2018

Juno in Aquarius is a hovering commitment choice for you, involving a lover, babies, children or the world of younger people as a whole – the next generation. Juno was Jupiter’s wife and of course she’s all about the pros and cons of big promises. This area of your life is opening up in January and by February you will have chosen to say yes, or no. The South Node (karma) is also in Aquarius right now, so along with these issues about who/what to ‘wed’ yourself to, this week, you also have a fair amount of past life stuff to wade through. If the children were born all those years ago when we had slow moving planets in Aquarius as the Millennium started (they are Millennials) then the karma goes back all the way to a pregnancy! However, this cycle is affecting you Libra, and it might only be with a lover, you have a few weeks to figure out just how much of a commitment, if any, feels right. The other major story now, which I have been talking about for some weeks, is your home, home town, homeland, family or household. We have a New Moon on Wednesday which shows you the new beginning. It’s political, because it’s about power or control. Keep an eye on that, because you really don’t want to write something in stone, that has future issues written into it as well.

Scorpio: 15-21 January 2018

Your ruler Pluto is at large now, so you have to address the question of multimedia, the web, your own ‘voice’ across all mediums, education, publishing, communication, language, literary and so on. We also have the corporates like Apple, Facebook, Google and the rest, who are astonishingly powerful. Telephone companies also often yank our chains, let’s face it! So, no matter if it’s the technology or the people you have to figure out a new way forward. Pluto transits tend to bring a change in the balance of power – the order of things – and so it is this week. Finding your own chair in the game of musical chairs is always interesting. We now have new realities that were not there before. December changed things and now you seriously know it – which means, a strategy is required. This may just be a bridge strategy or perhaps you have some overall plan for 2018 in mind, but do as much research and talking as you can. The other major deal this week is the Aquarius stellium, involving many asteroids. This is about your home, home town, homeland, household or family. Maybe property or a holiday home too. It’s colourful, it’s complicated and it requires a commitment. You’ll know by February if this is right for you or not, but it’s rather like ‘marrying’ some aspect of bricks and mortar – or your people/place. Then again you may decide not to commit at all!

Sagittarius: 15-21 January 2018

Sagittarius, I am sure that since December you’ve been aware of a project, plan or piece of technology moving up the radar. The person/situation which was on the margins in 2016 or 2017 has come forward and you have a choice to make, the sooner the better. At the same time, another entirely different concept, proposal or individual is pushing forward and again – you feel as if some kind of commitment has to be made. All of this is correct and actually, you have some gaps in your life to fill, so do think about how you’re going to do that. You can say no to either or both, and go into March with nothing there – but in many ways that would be a waste as this line-up in your horoscope is quite engaging, challenging and appealing. It really depends on the details, though, doesn’t it! You’ll need to move fairly quickly on this so ask a few questions of yourself and others. We also have a major New Moon in your cash, house, apartment, charity, business and possessions zone. That’s a new beginning. It also involves big questions about who/what is in control. You? Him? Her? Them? The White House or Downing Street? Pluto always asks you to accept a change in the balance of power and that is certainly happening here, but you also need to use your own willpower to feel more empowered.

Capricorn: 15-21 January 2018

You will be looking very deeply at the pros and cons of a major promise involving the money, business, house, apartment, charity or possessions this week, with more to come by February. You can’t leave this for much longer and some kind of firm yea or nay, will be required. Of course commitments have their good and bad points. You do need to go on a fact-finding mission here, not only with direct questions, but in the ‘story behind the story’ which is always there. You could actually go into March having made a significant decision, that would affect the whole year. I also need to pass on that because the Node is involved, there is karma with the person/organization. It may go back years or into past lives but there is a debt or credit slip here. What else is going on now? Well, since December The Capricorn Effect has taken hold and you are now well up to speed with the way it’s going to be with ‘Me’ in 2018. Facts are facts. You can’t really avoid these issues about your name, brand, face, image, profile and the rest. The key is to find the approach that makes you feel most secure and comfortable. Security is terribly important to you, Capricorn, as you need to find a firm footing that will help you stand on solid ground. Those ‘Me’ issues have been teaching you so much for the last eight or nine years. Now there is even more to learn. It may feel personal to you, but others have been there before you – reach out.

Aquarius: 15-21 January 2018

Not just one, but two options for your image, name, appearance or profile have appeared since December. You may even have a third option here too. The Universe is stacking up the choices and the irony is, you could take none of them, or even go looking for a fourth! It’s been a very long time since you had this kind of activity in Aquarius, your own sign, and some key asteroids are in there – long time no see. It may feel as if this is all happening at once, after months of disappointment or just zero action. This is quite true. Your chart has turned that way. So – if you want a fuller, more interesting, more substantial life in 2018 you will say yes to someone or something, by February. It’s not a perfect option at all, and you can see the potential pitfalls, but you might just go for it. A classic example is a new job which gives you a new profile and new title. Another one is weight loss. Still another is separation – you go from being Mrs. to Ms. Aquarius, beyond all these ‘Me’ choices you also have a ton of activity in Capricorn, one sign behind you. Nobody can really locate you on this cycle because so much of it is happening down below. You’re going to have a new beginning this week. It’s really important, too, because it influences 2018 and maybe even 2019, 2020. If you need to get it out of your head, write it down then shred it. You’re really under the radar at the moment, because of this and it’s private.

Pisces: 15-21 January 2018

With so much activity in Aquarius, one sign behind you, there is a great deal happening in secret, below the surface or even on an unconscious level, which means your dreams could be speaking quite loudly to you. The Twelfth House of your chart, ruled by Neptune (your own ruler) is now loaded. By February you will need to make a decision about what you have been covering up, or what you have not been facing, as it is out of your conscious mind. Sometimes we call this the house of everything psychic, or psychological. It is also the house of classified information and confidential matters. You may decide to walk right away from the major promise now hovering. If you say yes, though, it will change your year. Pisces, we also have a New Moon in your house of group efforts and friendships. That’s a new beginning. Try to avoid interpreting what goes down as a test of your power. It’s really not. The fact is, you can find empowerment through the group as a whole, or through the simple business of friendship as a whole. To try and use the situation as a way of figuring out how potent you are will actually land you in something that has happened before with people (at least since 2008 when this cycle began) – and that is politics. Who needs politics? Unless you’re a Pisces politician of course, but even then – who needs politics? The trick with this cycle is to harness collective energy and ability.
