The first New Moon of the New Year brings a fated opportunity to dream big. Supercharged by the energy of the 1/11 date on the calendar, this new moon is ripe with possibility. As the moon and sun meet in Capricorn, it feels as if we’re standing at the base of a mountain with the almost delusional confidence needed to reach the summit. Perfectly positioned between the nodes of fate, we must negotiate both our past and our future in this moment. What do you need to let go of in order to step into your next version? Focus on your big vision rather than your next steps and simply commit to moving in the direction of your destination. Trust in your dreams. They’re yours for a reason. And don’t be surprised how quickly the Universe moves when you decide what you truly desire and trust your intuition.

Harmony among the planets opens us to healing and learning today. Venus trines Chiron, allowing us to give love to the pain we’ve faced in relationships and finances. Then, Mercury and Saturn come into that same balanced aspect. Making practical sense of the lessons we’re learning feels natural- especially when it comes to emotional regulation and spiritual awareness. Our relationships are our greatest teachers.

Holiday season is in full swing! It’s the most wonderful time of the year… but it’s also the most triggering time of the year- especially when it comes to love and money. When Venus harmonizes with Chiron, we are opened to our deepest wounds and we understand love is the answer to heal them. Venus is still conjunct Mercury, allowing us to express that love more easily.

Another retrograde begins today! But don’t fear- Uranus is always retrograde for about half the year. As the planet of rebellion and innovation begins its backspin, we can expect to see a review of the changes happening to the physical planet (hello climate change!) and revisit technological advances over the coming months. On a personal level, this is a time to go within and assess what makes you most unique and authentic. Venus and Chiron harmonize today as well. Loving energy (both giving and receiving) can be incredibly healing today.
