1/12 - Horoscopes from Beliefnet

[LuAnn]

The Moon remains in critical Virgo today as it reminds us each of our ability to discriminate between useful and unneeded data. Virgo is often depicted as a maiden holding a bunch of wheat. It is her job to separate out the pulses of grain from the unusable chafe. Additionally, while moving through Virgo, the Moon aligns with expansive Jupiter at 8:17 am EST. Although this turns a positive spin on our emotions, the Moon squares dark Pluto at 12:09 pm EST. The morning's good news can turn bad by midday before getter better again later on.

ARIES (March 20–April 19):

You could feel conflict today, for although you know the right thing to do, it isn't easy to restrain your impulses from doing something else. But you have feeling of inner power now that you can rely upon and this reserve of energy will be enough to prevent you from wasting your talent by succumbing to your need for immediate gratification. Now, more than ever, you realize that waiting for the right moment can insure you great success.

TAURUS (April 20–May 20):

You are a study in inertia now. This means that it's difficult for you to change direction. If you have been inactive, you'll want to stay that way. But if you've been having a good time, it's going to be hard for you to turn it off. Your sensual needs are strong now, and you won't be denied the pleasures that you seek. Don't let your fixed ways get the best of you, for this week brings change whether you are ready for it or not.

GEMINI (May 21–June 20):

You might go through a minor neurotic episode today as you become more of a perfectionist than you usually are. It's not that you are typically sloppy. It's just that you are often ready to let something go when you have completed it. Now, however, you are driven to get it all perfect and you're not willing to let any loose ends remain untied. This can bring on a power struggle with someone who isn't as interested in your idea of making things right.

CANCER (June 21–July 22):

Your feelings are bigger than life now, but you do real well at keeping a healthy perspective on what's happening. Even if someone attempts to control your expression, you can hold onto your point of view. The danger for you in all this is that you can hold so strongly to your perspective that others might believe that you are trying to controlling them. Although this kind of passive resistance is a technique that has worked for you in the past, try to back off from any power struggles now. The situation will take care of itself without you making a fuss about it.

LEO (July 23–August 22):

Although you might have to go through a few ups and downs, you'll get to a place today where your energies are in balance. Your feelings and actions are harmonized now and others may take notice. They'll likely come to you now for your even-tempered considerations. You are a regular Mr. (or Ms.) Fixit today as you know what tools to use in order to solve the problems in other people's lives, as well as your own. This is all good, but don't take on more than you can handle.

:wizard:

VIRGO (August 23–September 22):

An old problem could resurface today involving feelings that have been festering unnoticed beneath the surface. These could be your feelings or someone else's, but in either case it's probably a good time to talk about them. It may take an unpleasant or difficult moment to act as a catalyst, but once the emotions are out in the open, there is great potential for solving the problem. Visualize a positive outcome and it could be yours.

LIBRA (September 23–October 22):

You are, oh, so close to a breakthrough, but might have to hold onto your horses for just a little bit longer. You have been scheming and dreaming, but keeping some of it you yourself. Now you are finalizing your plans before putting them into motion. Some of your ideas may leak out prematurely, but this isn't cause for worry. The biggest obstacle to your potential success may come from glossing over details and spreading yourself too thin.

:wizard:

SCORPIO (October 23–November 22):

You could get yourself really bent out of shape emotionally today, especially if you are very sure of yourself. This might sound contradictory, but it is your practical self-assuredness that can get you into trouble. Be willing to question your own values. Listen to what others are telling you, without putting up protective defenses. You have nothing to fear if you let someone into your heart. It's only if you close them out that you have cause for worry.

:wizard:

SAGITTARIUS (November 22–December 21):

More often than not your vision extends farther and wider than others--after all you Sagittarians are the philosophers and travelers of the zodiac. Now, your ideas are more carefully considered than usual, and this can make them become quite popular. Others can see your clear thinking at work and they will want to climb onto your bandwagon. Make sure your motives are clear. If you have the good of all in mind, you will have a better chance of meeting with success.

CAPRICORN (December 22–January 19):

There are times for action and there are times for planning. Today, your actions are less productive than usual but your planning abilities are working at top notch. Don't worry if your physical energy is lower than usual. What you lack in stamina is being compensated by your practical and sensible organizational skills. For just a short while, forget about your shortcomings and focus on what you do best.

AQUARIUS (January 20–February 18):

You are more philosophical now about love than you usually are. For this reason, it is a good time--maybe even a last chance for a while--to take care of whatever emotional issues have recently been on your mind. Your current advantage is that you can see what's going on with respect to your heart's desires. If love is unsatisfying now, you are able to be sensible about the reality of the situation and therefore make good decisions about what to do.

:wizard:

PISCES (February 19–March 19):

Your interactions with others now are the source of both good news and bad news. The good news in the ongoing probability that opportunity come knocking at your door. The bad news, however, is that you might be so entrenched with what you are doing that you do not have time to open the door and let it in. And, of course, opportunity won't keep knocking if you don't respond.
