1/11 Horoscopes from Beliefnet

[LuAnn]

The Moon is in earthy Virgo today symbolizing our need to do the right thing. Virgo is sometimes misinterpreted as cold or unemotional, but this needn't be the case. It's just that Virgo carefully limits its expression, but once you are within the laser-like beam of Virgo's love, the heat can be searing. We are centered in our own lives now as both the Sun in Capricorn and the Moon in Virgo shed their light through sensible earth signs. It is time to regroup. Consider what has happened and take stock of where you are before setting out to start what's next.

ARIES (March 20–April 19):

Although it could prove to be somewhat annoying, your day fills up quickly with a long list of little things to do. Of course, you could just ignore this list of tasks, but it may be better to swallow your injured sense of self-determination and just do what is expected of you. You'll have enough freedom of movement within the work that you take on. In fact, a surprise could temporarily free you from the routines of the day.

TAURUS (April 20–May 20):

Long range planning has been on the forefront of your thinking--and it still is. But now you are also considering what you can do in the present moment that can move you along in your plans. You have big ideas for the year ahead--and it is possible that you will reach your goals. Even if you don't have all the details nailed down yet, take a few tentative steps in the direction you want to go.

:wizard:

GEMINI (May 21–June 20):

You are in a practical frame of mind now and may be more reserved than you usually are. Your thoughts may be centered on home and family. It's possible that an event reminds you of someone from your past. This, in turn, can trigger a cascade of memories. You are uncharacteristically nostalgic as you think about the differences between your life now and back then. Even with these thoughts, you are able to maintain an analytical detachment as your feelings are stirred up.

CANCER (June 21–July 22):

Your day may be busier than you intended, but you roll with the unexpected changes as they come. There is an emphasis on lighthearted but not meaningless communication--like a long talk with a family member or a close friend. In times past, today's energy would be perfect for sitting by the fire and writing a long letter to a dear one. In these times, you might shoot off a quick email or make a phone call to someone you've been meaning to get back in touch with.

:wizard:

LEO (July 23–August 22):

It could be difficult to get a good perspective on what's happening in your life now. You want to be easy-going, but you are taking things more seriously than you want to. It's like the message on some automobile rear view mirrors: "Objects In the Mirror Are Closer Than They Appear." Of course, this is difficult for you to check out, because everything in your life now is seen through a mirror. You think you are perceiving reality but maybe you are not. Then again, depending upon driving conditions, your mileage may vary.

:wizard:

VIRGO (August 23–September 22):

With the Moon back in your sign for a couple of days, you Virgos could be feeling more emotionally reactive than usual. Although you are still considering your feelings through your very practical filter, you are less in control now. Your emotions have a life of their own--and it would be wise for you to stop and listen to what they are trying to communicate to you. Even if these feelings make you uncomfortable, don't push them away until they have run their course.

LIBRA (September 23–October 22):

Sometimes your ability to put off making decisions works against you, but hiding your feelings can actually work in your favor now. It just isn't time yet for others to know exactly what your position is. Keep them guessing for just a little while longer, even if someone is pushing you to make a decision. Use the time to explore every possibility within the privacy of your imagination. Trust your instincts. You'll know when to reveal yourself further.

:wizard:

SCORPIO (October 23–November 22):

You are strongly committed to a group of like-minded people now and it is this group that can give you what you need at this time. This group could be organized around a political, spiritual or community ideal. It could even be a longtime friend or associate who comes to your rescue. The best way to reap the benefits that are now coming your way is by keeping your channels of communication as open as possible. An interaction that doesn't seem overly personal--even one that is cool and aloof--can bring just the message you need to hear.

:wizard:

SAGITTARIUS (November 22–December 21):

Although this is a day off for many people, you Sagittarians many not have such a luxury at this time. This doesn't mean you are officially working today, but your mind may be on work or career related issues. It feels like time is beginning to run out and you need to follow through on what you started. Meanwhile, a longer-term less practical streak is energizing you to do something spontaneous--something that is totally just for you. Try to find a way to express both sides of who you are.

CAPRICORN (December 22–January 19):

It has been difficult for you to hold onto your anger as it has bubbled so close to the surface, but now a new wave of sensible thinking is washing over your feelings. You are more willing than you have been to deal with your unexpressed anger, even though this doesn't make it go away. But it does give you a way to work with it as you acknowledge the importance of someone else's role in your plans. It is okay to make sacrifices along the way, but don't give up more than you need to.

:wizard:

AQUARIUS (January 20–February 18):

Your intellect is probably your greatest asset, even now as you have been tempted to swing into action without thinking things through. Hopefully, you haven't moved too quickly, for it could be an impossible task to put the proverbial worms back into the opened can. Use your analytical abilities to consider the consequences of any action you are now planning. This doesn't mean that you shouldn't do it. It just means that you need to be practical and think about first.

:wizard:

PISCES (February 19–March 19):

Good news comes in the form of another person now as someone brings you an opportunity. This may not be the kind of opportunity you would think about. For example, someone may open your mind to a new way of looking at a situation. Or you may be introduced to a new philosophy or spiritual teaching. Or someone may come into your life to encourage you along whatever path you've already chosen. However this may manifest, be ready to move beyond your preconceived limitations--even in a small way.
