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 at 01:03 Aquarius and will station direct January 25th at 14:55 Capricorn. The retrograde station will have the strongest influence if your birthday is right around October 25 with its influence likely to relate to your 4th house of home environment, cultural roots, memories, endings and new beginnings.  This is a time to be rethinking and reconsidering anything going on in this part of your life.  Remember not to purchase anything electronic or mechanical at this time, even something as seemingly simple as a cat litter box, which I found out the hard way.  The direct station on January 25 is in your 3rd house of thoughts, ideas, siblings and neighbors as defined above in the section on the New Moon.  This implies that whatever new matter came about with the New Moon is likely to be reviewed at this time and either changed or discounted since things begun with Mercury RX often come to naught.  Those born right around November 8 are most likely to notice the direct station and find an opportunity, perhaps to greatly improve the initial idea or situation.

Jupiter stations retrograde on 7/8 January at 23:14 Virgo, your 11th house of friends, goals, networking, groups, organizations, hopes and wishes.  Jupiter RX often relates to ethics issues which are likely to not only relate to your 11th house but could also involve money, how you indulge your whims and creative expression.  An opportunity may be lurking there, particularly if your birthday is right around November 16.  This is an excellent time to examine your goals and ponder what you really want as well as what you're willing to do to obtain it.  This retrograde period lasts for several months and may operate primarily at the subconscious level but pay attention to any impressions that come along as potentially important.
