In the Stars for January 2018
A new calendar cycle begins this year, Happy New Year! The number 2018 resonates to the 11/2 in numerology which means it brings in the forces for Illumination, cooperation, and duality this energy will help with mediation as we may polarize in order to come to an understanding with others. Some may experience more flashes of intuition and insight.
The transiting Sun is moving through the earth sign Capricorn. This sign is outgoing, ambitious, and practical. The goat/fish climbs to the mountaintop, a symbol for the soul’s journey through the zodiac which can lead it to attain spiritual heights through the attainment of its goals on the earth plane. The goat uses its intuitive awareness, the fishtail and the horns of the sure-footed goat to climb the difficult trek up the mountain of self-realization. Capricorn, ruled by Saturn is aware of the struggles that life presents in order to achieve self –mastery or plunge into the depths of materiality.
Capricorns are organized, status-seeking individuals who do muster up the strength to overcome their fears and limitations in order to achieve their goals and make something of themselves. Self -discipline comes naturally to these folks especially since they are always working on something to improve life. They are dependable, responsible and waste little time on frivolities. They proceed forward carefully calculating their steps to meet their mark. Most are serious and somber as children and as they grow older they are wise and more lighthearted with themselves and others. They project dignity, discipline, and control. Most are conservative and measure the security in everything thus they are thrifty with money and possessions. In relationships, they are loyal and prefer to be with others who are disciplined and mature like themselves. Happy Birthday Capricorn! The change and challenges are here for you to let go of ego struggles and surrender to the spiritual light within you. This year 2018 will challenge you to change and look for other forms of expression as both Uranus planet of radical change and Pluto of reformation both aspect you’re Sun. This is a time to grow come out of the cocoon and spread your wings.
