WITCH TIPS

PSA: The week ahead will be intense. But, if we move towards personal growth, we can learn to go with the flow and move with ease through the astrological aspects. 

Mars, who’s in Taurus, squares off with Saturn, who’s in Aquarius on January 13th. This will be an argument or stress surrounding authority and limitations imposed on us. Venus, who’s in Capricorn, and Uranus, who’s retrograde in Taurus, softly connect on the 13th. They will round out the resentments and negativity that’s felt earlier in the day. The Sun and Pluto unite in Capricorn on the 14th, bringing up power struggles from the New Moon on the 12th/13th of January. Uranus turns direct on the 14th, ending the retrograde journey that began on August 15th. Our eyes are opening and we are seeing situations and people for who they really are — which will shock us. Jupiter, who’s in Aquarius, and Uranus share a fraught aspect on the 17th. Surprises are in the air, as well as shakeups, breakups, and meltdowns. Use the energy positively by implementing change and innovation into your life. The Sun enters Aquarius on the 19th, pushing us to embrace global transformation and to do our best to inspire change in the world. 

Aries 

You are focusing on how you can be the best version of yourself, without giving any mind or attention to what people think. Do not let anyone get in the way of your personal growth. It’s the journey that you are embarking on by yourself, for yourself. It’s your time.

Taurus 

Embracing your higher self will be essential, even though it’s challenging at times. However, once you find your spiritual core, you will be able to blossom and grow into the person you’ve always wanted to be. Now is your time to spread your wings and fly. The world is waiting!

Gemini 

Although you like to discuss your feelings, you’re not very vocal about your frustrations. Finding a way to discuss matters in a gentle way with others will not only relieve tensions within, but it’ll help mend relationships that have been rocky. In the end, you’ll be able to personally transform.

Cancer 

You’re living on both sides of the spectrum this week. On one hand, you’re craving intimacy. And, on the other hand, you’re yearning for freedom. Find a space in between that works. Have a few deep conversations and then put a pin in the communication while you process the information.

Leo 

You’re trying to hold onto the past, instead of moving towards your destiny. Rather than holding onto old ideas about what you wanted to achieve and add to your life, embrace a brand new vision based on the present day information. Dining this will help you understand your fate better.

Virgo 

It will be hard to relax and concentrate this week, unless you implement structure into your day-to-day vibe. This means sticking to a set schedule. Then, you will be able to take on issues that pop into your life with ease and the ability to move freely through such matters.

Libra 

Changes are now happening within you. You’re evolving and becoming the person you’ve always wanted to be. This means that you are flexing your inner strength and heart muscles for everyone to see. You’ll even inspire those close to you to take steps in creating the personal world they want.

Scorpio 

Anxieties are brewing within, due to external and internal pressures. Remember that you have nothing to prove to anyone, including yourself. You can achieve anything you put your mind to. And, you will in time. Not rushing your process will alleviate stress. After all, Rome wasn’t built in one day.

Sagittarius 

Your confidence may be high and low throughout the week. Grounding and centering your energies will allow you to find peace within. It’ll also help you realize that you are an amazing person. Don’t listen to the negativity in your head, it’s just your fears talking. Their words aren’t real.

Capricorn 

Life has felt like a roller coaster lately. And, this week doesn’t ease up. But, you are beginning to take pride in yourself and all of the effort you put into transforming. Growth is happening and you’re feeling stronger. You’re now standing taller and prouder than you ever have before.

Aquarius 

There seems to be a lot of confusion in the energy that you want to bring into your life. Before you make impulse decisions, mediate and try to hone into your subconscious desires. By week’s end, you will come to find that you don’t need anything except self-love and acceptance.

Pisces 

Power struggles are brewing in your friend group. You’re not feeling as though your peers appreciate you. Chances are, they feel the same way about you. Have an open conversation with no drama and arguing to mend fences. Doing so will create a deeper connection and bond between you all.
