Astrological forecast for the week of January 1-8, 2024
Mercury turns direct January 2. The ebb and flow of Mercury retrograde cycles which occur for three weeks four times a year is an important rhythm in the human experience. We plan and take action when Mercury is direct, and then we reflect when Mercury turns retrograde. The changes of direction are marked by Mercury standing still before picking up speed again, and that is where we are this week. We aren’t backtracking, but we aren’t rushing forward either. It’s always a good idea to pay attention to the details, but that is especially true when Mercury is retrograde or at a station point as it is this week.
Mars enters Capricorn. The planet of action (Mars) is said to be exalted in the sign of achievement (Capricorn), and when we combine this with the Capricorn New Moon and the blessings of the Jupiter station it’s obvious that January is the perfect month to turn our goals into reality. Mars will be in Capricorn until February 13th and will be especially auspicious at the end of January when it teams up with Mercury (mind) to harmonize with Uranus for a download of exciting new ideas and practical wisdom.
