New Moon

This New Moon, the first one of 2016, occurs on January 9 at 19:13 Capricorn.  The lunation is conjunct Pluto, which provides a transformational influence or the potential involvement of power or control issues that will relate to the natural house in which it falls.  Mercury is retrograde and has returned to Capricorn, suggesting the need to rethink or redo something related to this house.  The New Moon squares Uranus, implying sudden change, a disturbance or unexpected event which introduces something new into your life which is likely to be of a challenging nature.

The lingering square between Saturn and Neptune is almost over, which should help you see things related to responsibility more clearly.  This long-term square has caused delusions related to responsibilities and introduced too much idealism into situations that required a firmer hand.  Nonetheless, the conjunction between Venus and Saturn should bring some philosophical influences with the potential to break away from any previous poor decisions.  A passionate approach to situations that deserve compassion is favored as well as careful consideration of ethical matters.

Full Moon

The first Full Moon of 2016 occurs on January 23 at 3:29 Leo. Mercury is still retrograde and conjunct Pluto, indicating a time to rethink and resolve old issues, but breaking away from previous situations or decisions will be difficult. Taking action of a compassionate nature is favored, however. The Sun transiting Aquarius, the sign that favors friendship, groups and goals, carries an egalitarian influence which is also detached, providing a positive influence for making objective decisions for the good of the many as opposed to the few.

OTHER COSMIC EVENTS

This month Mercury goes retrograde on January 5th and will station direct January 25th. The retrograde station will have the strongest influence if your birthday is right around March 22 and relate to an opportunity to rethink or redo something related to your friends, group associations or goals.  The direct station will affect those born right around April 4 and could present a last chance of some sort to rectify an old issue related to your career or status.  Remember the general rules still apply which include refraining from buying anything of a mechanical or electronic nature while Mercury is RX.  This applies no matter how simply the item seems to be; if it has moving parts it's likely to not function correctly as I discovered a while back with a cat litter box where the hook holding the door in place broke within a few days.

Jupiter stations retrograde on 7/8 January at 23:14 Virgo, your 6th house of work, health, service and pets.  This suggests a change of course in this part of your life, particularly if your birthday is right around April 13.  Jupiter RX typically relates to ethics issues so pay attention to what's going on around you.  Philosophical issues or those of a deeper spiritual nature are likely to arise.  You might also want to watch your back during this time.
