Continue to The Horoscope For January 2023:
Much of your personal growth that occurs this month will happen in your private life, out of public view. This is an excellent time to think about cultivating the foundations of your life before other life events come into play to steal your attention.
First on your to-do list in this bright New Year is to settle financial matters within four days of the full moon in Cancer on January 6. Uranus, the planet of all things surprising, will be at an ideal angle to this full moon. This suggests you may get an influx of cash just when you need it most to polish off the credit card you used to buy holiday gifts. Jupiter is your ruler and will reach out to Pluto in your income sector, a fantastic astrological signature and auspicious indication of impending success. Earnings should please you. If you are self-employed, you may now pick up a new, lucrative client, or if you work for others, get an impressive new position or a raise. In either case, you will likely be delighted to see a large sum of money directed into your checking account as a result. If you are starting a new job, this new moon may be the right time to ask about health insurance and other company benefits.
As you begin the year, Mercury is retrograde, a trend that started on December 29 and will end when Mercury goes direct on January 18. This will bring a leisurely start to the year, so if you have to return a gift, do it soon so that the task does not weigh on you. Make it a point, however, to put off spending on electronics now, for Mercury retrograde is not the time to invest in a new computer, smartphone, or other products. Also avoid signing a contract or launching (or entering) a new venture if possible.
Not only has Mercury been retrograde (and going direct on January 18), but Mars has been retrograding, too. In Mars’ case, the Red Planet went into a slowdown on October 30 but will turn to direct on January 12. When it comes to retrograde planets, there is one rule to keep in mind: The planets that orbit closest to earth (Mercury, Venus, and Mars) are the only ones you would noticeably feel when in retrograde. However, as a Sagittarius, you would feel the retrograde of Jupiter too, because Jupiter is your ruler. Venus will not retrograde until July 22 to September 3. After Mars goes direct, we all will have two years before he will retrograde again.
As a Sagittarian, you are happiest when you are packing your suitcase and setting out on a trip, and if an overseas trip isn’t in the cards, you will make do with a short one. You may get your wish this month for your third house of short-distant travel (Aquarius) is being lit not only by the new moon on January 21, but the Sun, Saturn, and Venus are all in Aquarius, a sign that blends perfectly with your Sagittarian Sun. You may be visiting your sister, brother, or cousin, or traveling to revisit a childhood location you once loved and have not returned to in many years. It’s also very possible you will be traveling to have a face-to-face business meeting with a client. This is a superb new moon, so expect to make a lot of progress. If you’re pitching an idea for an order, you are about to get approvals.
Romantically, you are golden. Your ruler Jupiter is currently making a once-in-12-year visit to your house of true love. Jupiter will remain in this part of your chart until May 16, so you have time to meet your one truelove. This month you could meet someone new on a short trip or simply while doing errands around your neighborhood. It is also possible that love may come through an introduction made by your sibling or cousin.
If you are attached, your outlook is still strong and robust. You have hosted Mars in your partnership sector since August 20, and you seem very focused on your fiancé or mate, for this person is making the headlines in your life. It’s possible your spouse or steady sweetheart is taking on a new job or starting a business.
If you have a sweetheart and are engaged, you may be planning your wedding. A number of obstacles may have come up this past October, November, and December, but those should start to melt away in the weeks after Mars goes direct on January 12. Mercury rules your partner, so Mercury’s turning direct should help speed things up too after January 18.
Things are all moving in a better direction, dear Sagittarius. You will like the change.
