Robin's Zodiac Zone Weekly Astrology January 19th-25th, 2017

Thursday: Mercury moves to Capricorn at 9 am ET. We are still retracing degrees of Mercury retrograde, though the retro itself is over. Revisions are likely if you acted weeks ago and have changed your mind or the situation has shifted. Some will go back on their word or their decision in favor of something completely different. Also, some things may be altered or edited rather than scrapped completely.Void of course Moon 3:55 am to 4:24 pm ET.  Be cautious with statements, emails, texts, information and trust during that time. Moon in Scorpio 4:24 pm on. Scorpio holds onto ideas and relationships until well ready to let go. Long term implications are in the forecast if you're taking action on or making anything public. Saturn in harmony with the Moon and square Mars. Difficult feelings and situations arise. Mars square Saturn is not a good time to argue, instigate, or infuriate.  Stay away from aggressive people or dangerous locations.  Today's color is Black.

Friday: Scorpio Moon in harmony with Mercury, planet of communication and planning. Venus in Pisces aligns with Pluto.  Find more ease communicating and learning. Seriousness and focus are likely. A quiet thoughtful approach is called for. Relationships are up for examination, discussion and sharing of secrets. Be intentional with communication and conversations.  Immerse in projects and priorities.  Today's color is Indigo.

Saturday: Scorpio Moon aligns with Pluto, Venus and Mars.  More intentional energy backing our actions and conversations.  Nothing will be taken lightly. Don't mess around or provoke an argument. Do have well thought out personal conversations. Relationships are in focus as Venus and Mars relate to the Moon from the sign Pisces. Where Scorpio Moon holds onto hard feelings, Venus may help smooth stormy waters with the sensitivity and compassion of the sign Pisces.  Void of course Moon starts at 8:24 pm ET until 5:45 am. Today's color is Red.

Sunday: Sagittarius Moon arrives at 5:45 am ET and is in harmony with the Aquarius Sun.

Monday: The Sagittarius Moon squares Neptune as Mercury in Capricorn aligns. Examine romantic notions or things you're looking the other way about instead of dealing with.  Moon in harmony with Uranus for speediness. Insensitivity could be an issue as could impulsiveness.

Tuesday: Sag Moon void of course from 12:43 to 5:43 pm ET. Moon in harmony with Jupiter and meeting Saturn means action with both opportunities for growth and learning as well as finalizing pending matters. Have some responsibility with your sense of freedom and vice versa.  Moon square Mars increases the chance of disagreement or disagreeable behavior which may come passive aggressively since Mars is in Pisces.  What's bubbling under? Moon in Capricorn 5:43 pm on for grounding in tasks and creating order. Today's color is Black.

Wednesday: Capricorn Moon aligns with Neptune and meets Mercury for creative and effective use of words. Communicate well, clearly and without making problems personal. Be on time. Show your talents, abilities and willingness to take charge where needed.  Today's color is Green.

This Friday, Mercury joins Jupiter and the Sun in fair minded Libra. Resolve personal and legal disputes, form partnerships, and expect justice and generous settlements now through next week.

Aries: Your ruling planet, Mars, activates career options now. Keep your chin up and concentrate on a project you’re passionate for. Try not to let the monsters get you down or trigger any public display of negativity.  Planets in Libra favor all of your partnerships and mutual decisions. Get together with someone whose traits or strengths complement yours.

Taurus: Improving your routines and habits makes a huge difference. As a physical sign, you know that when your body feels good you function at a higher level. Even in your marriage or with your closest colleague, you’re a much better partner when you’re rested and balanced in what you consume. Be good to yourself like that, and notice how everything else responds.

Gemini: The Sun, Mercury and Jupiter reward your patience with developments and encounters you’ve been gearing for. Open up options for dating or business networking. Planetary positivity extends to child rearing and baby making if you’re ready. This season is about giving birth to new experiences and relationships of many kinds. Partner up and make things happen.

Cancer: Be sincere and convincing as you coax a close partner to see things your way. In family and other household relationships, the trend is toward growth and positive solutions. Rather than blame or passive discontent, open the conversation for a new agreement about money, chores, and mutual respect.  An honest talk should go very well during the next seven days.

Leo: Mercury fires up your mind for speaking, writing, and publishing. Jupiter favors the benefits that come from such things, like money and growing audiences. Release your music or book late this year or in 2017. Whether you’re getting inspired or nearing completion, focus energy on media and self expression. Express from the heart. Learn quickly, and then pass it on.

Virgo: A job interview or related meeting is well timed for the 10th to 12th. Resume your search for higher paying or more suitable work. Be flexible as you consider a position out of your comfort zone. Jupiter gives you the power to take on bigger, more important and more intellectual projects this year. As Mercury moves to Libra, recognize the value of what you do.

Libra: The smart planets, Mercury and Jupiter, travel through your sign. Tap your knowledge base, use your wits, and be resourceful halfway between New and Full Moon. The Sun energizes you toward goals and for relationships.  Progressive change comes if you can move past outdated or negative thinking. See the missing piece that’s right in plain sight.

Scorpio: Rediscover enthusiasm for an unfinished project.  Venus stimulates your creative fire through mid month. Balance your internal process with interactions that bring ideas and plans to life. For example, seek out a valued opinion before pitching or delivering the final product. A road trip or time away from the usual yields insights you may not expect.

Sagittarius: Take a step toward one of your dreams.  Mercury, Jupiter and the Sun gather to influence your friendships, romances and hopes. Infatuation is a symptom of this season, for you. Meanwhile, use wisdom and discretion where money is concerned. Seek financing or legal agreements, knowing there are still surprises in store. For now, curb any urge to overspend.

Capricorn: This is peak season to be noticed for the right reasons.  Shine brightly in your field of expertise, or enthusiastically pursue a new goal. Mars, the planet of physical energy, pushes you a little bit harder or further, through November 9th. Initiate and keep things moving without overextending yourself. Enjoy a romantic or sentimental weekend as Venus and the Moon align.

Aquarius: Your mission is to become even more life smart. In the broad picture, there are life lessons to pursue should you choose to accept. Presently, deal with details with Mercury’s blessing until October 24th. Include applications, legal docs, and travel credentials on your to do list. This weekend, quiet time balances your body and mind.

Pisces: Answers and intuitions seem to come out of the clear blue. Hear beyond someone’s words and notice how you feel, trusting or unsure. Believe your body’s reactions as instinctual and informative. If you’re in the midst of a health concern, information you need comes forward. Resilience and regeneration are your two key words.

Horoscopes:

Rise above and move beyond any maladies or chaos related to Mercury retro and September eclipses. Autumn arrives Thursday, and Mercury stations direct in Virgo. Clear up confusion and channel your most organized, together self.

Aries: Mercury pauses before moving forward, giving you a chance to breathe, consider, and clarify. Prep for a decision about communication, routine and functionality. Mercury aligns with Pluto, reintroducing you to an aptitude or aspiration you’ve yet to fulfill. Define where you want to be and on what terms.

Taurus: Planet Venus slides into Scorpio where she plays with your heart, either tugging you closer to a partner or revealing feelings you’ve kept hidden and unexpressed.  Mercury instigates crushes, on people or other loves.  Questions of loyalty, love and the long term come to the forefront. Secrets, temptations and passion dominate this week.

Gemini: The Sun/ Jupiter meeting on Monday brings you good luck. From harmonious Libra, these two hopeful and expansive heavenly bodies favor love, creative projects and your kids. Use this week to resolve, initiate, and celebrate, especially in the areas mentioned.  Get together around a shared vision, with a compatible partner, before September ends.

Cancer:  Positive developments involve family members, home or both. The Sun and Jupiter in Libra burst with good news related to a home improvements or a move. Optimistic news or communication comes from brothers, sisters, and other immediate family. Venus moves to Scorpio this Friday, and it’s time to find out or immerse in what it means to truly love.

Leo: Relationships with sisters and brothers become more relevant as the Sun and Jupiter meet. Are you due to reunite with biological family? Shared experiences bond you together in a new way. Travels, motivated by either family or work, are favored. Trust that things will fall together easily and magically as the Sun and the big planet join forces on your behalf.

Virgo: Mercury sits for a moment before continuing the Virgo journey. You too can pause and enjoy a slice of autumn. The world awaits an answer, the conclusion you’re drawing through research and soul search, but all will be well for a few days or a week.  Monday offers nice timing for job and money matters. Give relationship questions all the time you need.

Libra: Venus puts you in a better position for a new or second job and for balancing financial matters. If you’re in partnership, you two may decide to spend or invest some money for pleasure. Start an account for a specific reason, like travel or a wedding. The Sun and Jupiter shine brightest on you on the luckiest Monday ever, September 26th.

Scorpio: By nature, you’re private and protect your feelings and own best interests. However, the Sun and Jupiter provoke your inner optimist.  Good things are genuinely brewing while Venus visits your sign for a month, helping you attract a date, future employer, or more harmony with people in your life. This weekend, enjoy a road trip or event with good friends.

Sagittarius: The duo of Mars and Saturn has undoubtedly instigated you and challenged your inner peace.  You need ample time to recharge as some transitions occur. Send Mars off to Capricorn next Tuesday, and with that shift an adversary or problem moves further from your zone. Mercury direct smooths out career situations after a chaotic or unproductive time.

Capricorn: Jupiter is dedicated to improving your career life in the next several months. On Monday, the Sun adds power and energy to the same cause. It’s an ideal time to interview for or accept a position that makes you happier. If you’re going abroad or in school, plans and schedules smooth out too. The transformation and adaptation is becoming complete.

Aquarius: Renew your passport and check frequent flyer miles. Distant clients, conferences or audiences call you away.. In the name of art, business, education or service to others, be ready to go. The Sun and Mercury combine for answers to your questions about financing or health. Most of all, make sure information resonates with your sixth sense before you act.

Pisces: Looking ahead, one final eclipse will rock your world near birthday time. Just fyi. In the now, you and your partner share news or make an enlightened decision. You’re more clear about your heart’s desire. A declaration of love, loyalty or intention shouldn’t come as a surprise.

This Jupiter year expands your intuition. Start to trust yourself even more.
