Your Weekly Overview January 17th – January 23rd

What fills your emotional tanks? The answer may surprise you this Monday, January 17, as the first full moon of 2022 shimmers in watery, reflective Cancer. With secret-keeper Pluto in Capricorn sitting directly across the zodiac wheel from la lune, you might catch the soft whispers of deferred dreams. Tune in to these “ghosts” of inspiration past. With both Mercury and Venus retrograde all week, looking backwards won’t turn you into a pillar of salt. Rather, something heartfelt and true may rise from the ashes of grief, disappointment or loss. Use the coming two weeks—peak manifesting time for a full moon—to create your “studies,” releasing judgment and making art for art’s sake. Sketch out characters for a novel, strum chords on a guitar or test-kitchen recipes for, say, your someday-maybe food truck.

Normally this full moon would inspire a decorating mission or heart-to-hearts with your inner circle. But the aforementioned retrogrades wave red flags, cautioning against risks that could destabilize your home base in any way. Avoid triggering topics for the time being, and instead, excavate your own emotions and explore them with objective friends and guides. Once you’ve moved past the reactive state, you’ll be in a far better place to implement changes—or negotiate terms that feel like a win-win.

More major news arrives on Tuesday! Not only does cosmic shock-jock Uranus wrap up its five-month retrograde and blaze forward with an innovative-but-practical spirit in Taurus, but the Bullpen gets an additional burst of adrenaline from the lunar North Node, which is heading into Taurus for the first time since December 2004. This isn’t a planet, but rather a point in the sky which is associated with the eclipses. In astrology, the North Node—along with its companion, the South Node—is the cosmic compass directing our collective destiny. Money, power and sex will be the focus of this next cycle, which wages on ‘til July 17, 2023. How do we traverse our inner landscapes while also handling material world concerns? We may swing between the extremes of controlled stoicism and unbridled hedonism. There’s a popular saying that we are “spiritual beings having a human experience.” As the earthbound Taurus North Node plays tug-of-war with the mystical Scorpio South Node, we’ll find ourselves seeking the elusive balance between “physical” and “metaphysical.”

Fortunately, the Sun can help with that balancing act. On Wednesday, January 19, el Sol blazes into high-minded, progressive Aquarius—a sign that sits smack-dab in the middle of Scorpio and Taurus on the zodiac wheel. Borrowing some of Scorpio’s “weird” and a touch of Taurus’ practical magic, the Water Bearer knows how to mix a cocktail that pleases both of its fellow fixed signs. Experiment openly while Aquarius season wages on until February 18. Just don’t forget to record your findings—or your process! The gems you uncover could positively impact an entire community.
