The Cosmic Connection
with Ursula Duffy
Horoscopes for Jan. 9-15
♈Aries: Home themes take center stage, potentially presenting a challenge to your role in whatever surfaces. Maternal and paternal patterns may be at odds. A healing opportunity is present.
♉Taurus: A shorter-term project reaches maturity. Communication with emotional undertones and a need for expression flavor the experience. There could also be a revelation about a sibling or extended family member.
♊Gemini: The stars have been focused on your personal resources for quite some time. A blossoming is underway this week. Take note of how you feel about whatever unfolds.
♋Cancer: The spotlight is shining fully on you and your physical body. Fluidity, digestion and your overall mood may feel extra sensitive or irritated. Soothe crabbiness with self-care. Be more cautious and aware of your surroundings in daily activities.
♌Leo: What has begun to be revealed to you comes into full awareness. The emotional connection may now feel like an entanglement. Guidance about how to sever the tie may be needed. Stay true to yourself.
♍Virgo: Connections you’ve been seeking in community manifest, along with a hope or dream reaching fruition. Self-protection or a guardedness around your energy or contribution may still be needed. Trust your feelings.
♎Libra: Your authenticity is the greatest gift you can give to the outside world. Shine it fully, even if it feels vulnerable, as you wade through any changes or challenges that may affect the light in which others see you.
♏Scorpio: The fruits of your efforts from a longer-term project, adventure or course of study are ripening. Sometimes intentionally pulling on the reins reveals the most aligned direction. Trust your inner compass guiding what to harvest versus what should remain on the vine.
♐Sagittarius: Telling the truth and shedding light on secretive feelings or information can be liberating. Vulnerability that fosters growth and healing can be empowering. A new, bigger vessel awaits.
♑Capricorn: Your voice and words can move mountains. Stay grounded in yourself and your truth as you navigate the emotional waters of what’s being shown to you about your closest relationships.
♒Aquarius: Get out of your head and into your body. A full awareness of your health, work and daily practices is incoming. Acknowledgement of emotions, your body’s messages and that which increases wellness is advised.
♓Pisces: The connection and bond between yourself and something you’ve created reach fullness this week. Uncomfortable feelings around what’s revealed are important indicators about what should be released.
Weekly Astrology Summary:
A very emotional, raw and vulnerable Cancer full moon graces us this week. It will reach fullness at 5:26 p.m. (ET) on Monday, Jan. 13 close to a potent, retrograde Mars sharing space with the full moon in the zodiac sign Cancer, as mentioned in last week’s astrology summary. Tears water our soul garden so we can heal is an important reminder in the wake of how we may individually and collectively experience the full moon, the influence of Mars, and the underlying energies. A full moon in Cancer opposite the sun in Capricorn can bring up conditioning and behavior patterns related to maternal and paternal energies, respectively. These feelings can run deep depending on our childhood experiences, and there can be a resurfacing of memories and emotions that can have bittersweet nostalgia. Anger, aggression and crabbiness can also accompany the emotional rise due to the influence of Mars. It’s up to us to choose mature responses to our feelings and what’s revealed in the days leading up to the full moon and afterward. There will be a challenge to acknowledge the learning and healing opportunities that are present. The Cosmic Connection activity below will offer additional insight. See the above horoscope for your rising sign for more specific information. If you’re unsure what your rising sign is, you can learn more in my info/tutorial video on the Sea Goddess Healing Arts YouTube channel, or cast your own birth chart for free on astro.com.
Cosmic Connection Activity: The Cosmic Connection offers guidance for the energies moving forward and content for reflection. We can now look back to the weekly horoscopes/astrology summary for the week of July 4, when there was a Cancer new moon. Reflecting on the longer, 6-month lunar cycle at the time of the full moon can provide great insight into what’s now culminating.
