We start out the month with Mercury in retrograde since December 13th. It starts out its retrograde in the Zodiac sign of Capricorn, meaning that the confusion, misunderstandings, and general chaotic and annoying situations apply especially to the professional world. It will go direct shortly after the New Year, on January 2nd, 2024. After that date, we will collectively be sighing a sigh of relief. Patience and thinking before you speak are recommended for this holiday season to avoid friction with family and friends.

During winter, on the last day of 2023, we will see Jupiter in the sign of Taurus going direct. Expansion and good luck will be in the air for all of us, especially in areas that have to do with the sign of Taurus – gradually building wealth and income streams, recuperating from psychological issues around food and nutrition, getting more rest, sleep, and a better diet, your relationship to objects and investing in a few quality items that will last you a long time are all areas where we will be blessed with good luck collectively until May next year.

Another date we should all watch out for is January 21st. On that date, Pluto will end once and for all its long transit through Capricorn, which made cardinal signs (Aries, Libra, Cancer, and Capricorn) really go through it. This is so because Pluto is the planet of metaphorical deaths, endings, transformation, transmutation, and renewal. Its energy is very intense, though not always in a negative way, but even when it blesses us, it leaves out exhausted and with a lot to process. It will move towards Aquarius, and now the Fixed signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius) should prepare for a long period of intensity, both internal and brought by external events.

Regarding New and Full Moons this winter, we start with the Full Moon in Cancer on December 27th, bringing an energy release in the way we deal with our emotions, our past, and our families. Remember that Full Moons are a time for harvest and New Moons are a time to plant new seeds.

The first New Moon of the year on January 11th will take place in the Zodiac sign of Capricorn. This is a great opportunity for all of us to manifest a fresh new start in our careers and the way we are perceived by the masses. Those of you who are still unsure about what you want to do long-term for your career can manifest a better social media presence. The first Full Moon of the year, on January 25th, will take place on the Zodiac sign of Leo. It is an overall great day to conceive. Those of you who have been doing inner child healing will reap the rewards big time, and those of you who are artistically inclined may be particularly inspired.

The New Moon on February 9th, in the Zodiac sign of Aquarius, is a great time to manifest new friendships or find a sense of community, especially if your manifestations are accompanied by a sincere commitment to social justice and/or environmental issues. The final Full Moon of the winter on February 24th, in the Zodiac sign of Virgo, will make us reap what we sowed, good or bad, regarding our habits in our health and the workplace. Prepare for it by getting organized and giving your health, both mental and physical, your best efforts.  

 

Aries

Those of you with an Aries rising will have to be extra careful when communicating in the workplace and posting content that counts towards your personal brand till the beginning of January. This is because Mercury will be retrograding in your tenth house of career and reputation. Your words could be misconstrued and confusion and misunderstandings in the workplace could happen. This all clears up by January 2nd, when Mercury goes retrograde after moving back to Sagittarius.

December the 27th, however, is a positive day for your career as the Sun, transiting through your tenth house of career, forms a harmonious aspect with Jupiter, stationed in your second house of finances and personal assets. Speaking about finances, Jupiter, the planet of good luck, has been transiting your second house of personal finances since May last year and it’s due to stay there until May next year. However, if your finances have been stagnant lately, don’t fret. That’s because this planet has been retrograde since September this year. Once it goes direct on the very last day of 2023, expect to make it rain.

January is a month where the focus seems to be on career. Throughout the month, there is a lot of planetary energy in your tenth house of career and reputation as Mars starts its transit through said house in January 4th, followed by Mercury on January 14th, and Venus on January 23rd. The Sun has already started its transit there by the end of December and will continue until the 21st. What does this mean? Mars is the planet of being proactive, dealing with conflict and anger, and healthy competition. Mercury signals in which area of your life you will have your thinking cap on and make efforts throughout communicating. Venus represents your sense of aesthetics and your core values, and can also signal money coming into an area of your life. This indicates that a lot of you energy will go into bettering your career somehow, and this could include a promotion or new paying clients for some of you.

On January 10th, as the Sun in your tenth house will form a trine with Uranus in your second house of personal finances, indicating you may have unexpected but positive news regarding your finances or your wage. The next day, January 11th, we have the New Moon of the month also in your tenth house of career and reputation. This is the day in 2024 to manifest new career opportunities and getting ahead in your industry.

Good fortune regarding your finances and career continue on January 12th and January 19th as Mars and Mercury respectively form harmonious aspects with Jupiter. On January 28th, you may experience a sprinkle of good luck as Mercury forms a trine with Uranus. On this instance, the good fortune may be unexpected and come to you as a surprise. The 29th is particularly lucky regarding both your finances and career as both Venus and Mars form harmonious aspects with different planets transiting your second house of finances.

January is not all about career, though there is undeniably a marked focus there. On January 25th, the Full Moon of the month takes place in your fifth house of fun, the arts, casual relationships, romance, and children. You’ll be reaping what you sowed in the last six months in these areas.

During February, you can expect a lot of tension between your friends and your finances, especially on February 8th, February 10th, February 17th, February 25th, and February 27th. This can manifest in a variety of ways. Maybe your social life will be super hectic and you’ll find yourself spending more money than you’d like during get-togethers. Maybe a friend will need a hefty loan. Maybe you’ll be pushed to deliver socially more than what you are capable of physically. The frenzy to see friends after the holidays is real after such a focus is place on family. Just make sure the happy times you spend with friends in February don’t take too much of a toll on you, financially or physically.

Taurus

The winter starts off with some opportunities for growth regarding your committed partnership. This is so because on December 21st Venus in your seventh house of committed partnership and forming an opposition with Uranus in your first house of self and identity. Something unexpected and surprising may come up from your side that kind of throws your partner off balance. Your partnership will be safe if you both take it as an opportunity to grow.

On December 25th, there will be a beautiful dialogue between planets in your seventh house of committed partnership and Neptune in your eleventh house of friendship and community. You may meet someone exciting through friends, sparks may fly between yourself and a friend, or your partner may be getting along beautifully with your friends.

Jupiter has been retrograde for a few months in your first house of self and identity for a few months now, pressing the pause button for the luck you experienced in May when Jupiter moved to your own sign. It will go direct on December 31st. You will be starting out the new year with good luck on your side and yearning for intellectual and spiritual expansion.

In January, there is some serious movement in your career. Some of you will be ending a certain job or even entire career in favor of newer and greater things, others will see some other sort of dramatic change. This is so because Pluto, the planet of transformation, destruction, and renewal, will enter your tenth house of career and reputation on January 21st. These huge changes could impact your sense of identity, indicated by the fact that there will be some tension between the Sun in your tenth house of career and Jupiter in your first house of self. Your career may not be aligning with your sense of purpose, and this may lead you to making some changes if they haven’t happened yet on the 21st. Change is definitely in the cards for your career as the winter progresses.

Your mental energy will be especially focused on your career after Mercury moves into your tenth house on February 5th and comes together with Pluto. For those of you who still have not seen the career transformation that’s due to materialize at some point soon, you may be able to articulate it in words or have an illuminating conversation about it on or around this date. The New Moon on February 9th will take place on your tenth house of career and reputation and is a great time to manifest either clarity or some opportunities coming your way. This energy of manifestation will be aided as Mars and Venus enter this area of your birth chart on February 13th and February 16th respectively. Mars will give you a surge in motivation and a bit of a competitive edge in your career. Venus will make you magnetic to all sorts of opportunities. On February 17th, Venus and Pluto come together, which may give you some clarity on the transformation that is happening or about to happen, especially if you try to express yourself through the arts. They will come together on February 22nd. This is a powerful date for your career and you should not miss out on dropping resumés or emailing potential clients.

February isn’t all about career. On February 25th, the Full Moon in Virgo will take place in your fifth house of fun, romance, the arts, self-expression, and children (including your inner child). This is a great date to conceive if that’s what you’re after. You will see the end of a cycle in these areas of life and reap what you sowed, for good or bad. Some of you will be making it official with a casual lover, others will be parting ways with your situationship. As Full Moons are concentrations of energy, you may be magnetic in the dating scene on or around this date as well.

Gemini

The winter starts off with a lot of energy placed in your seventh house of committed partnership and business associates. A lot of your focus will be placed there. On December 22nd, the Sun will be conjunct Mercury in your seventh house of partnership. You will feel a surge of energy to start working on goals that have to do with your love life, or your partner will supplement your own energy beautifully.

On December 27th, the Full Moon of the month, in Cancer, will take place in your second house of personal finances and assets. This is a time to reap what you sowed in the last six months regarding money and income streams. If you’re not satisfied with what comes up on or around this date, take it as a sign to set New Year’s resolutions that have to do with cultivating a better relationship with money – whether that means paying off debt, stop overspending, investing, or saving, that’s up to you. Observe what comes up on or around this Full Moon and take it as an opportunity to know yourself better and improve. On this very same date, there will be some tension between your committed partner or a business associate and your career and reputation. Whether any of these components of your life will be competing for your attention or you realize that one is impacting the other negatively, take it as an opportunity to grow. This theme is repeated the following day, December 28th. The difference is that on the 27th, the way you and your partner communicate will be the thing generating tension, whereas on December 28th it’ll be all about how you two handle conflict, manage your anger, or even compete with each other.

For those of you who are single or simply yearning for some much-needed harmony after that bumpy period, on December 29th, Venus will be entering your seventh house of committed partnership. This will make you more magnetic to potential partners and attract new eligible people like crazy until it stops its transit in this area of your birth chart on January 23rd. If you’re into women, this transit may mean that a new promising potential partner who is female or very in tune with their feminine energy will enter your life. Taken less literally, it could apply to a new male suitor if it is a man who is very committed to the arts, has a profession for something that has to do with visuals, aesthetics or beauty, is very receptive and diplomatic, and likes to keep his relationships in harmony. This is a well-groomed man who always looks put together and his taste could rival any woman’s.

January will be a month of tension and bumps in the road, but, if you’re smart about it, you can use this to your favor to grow. The areas that are coming into conflict are, again, your committed partnership and/or business associates and your career and reputation. The planets lighting up in your area of committed partnership are Mercury, meaning that the way you communicate with your partner can be a source of tension, and Venus, which means conflicting values and/or one partner’s struggles with being receptive could be the source of conflict. On the other end, Neptune, which has recently gone direct after being retrograde for months, is one of the planets in your tenth house of career. Neptune rules over compassion, our sense of oneness and connection with Divinity, but also illusions and lies. Saturn is also transiting your tenth house of career. Your career achievements may be hard-earned ever since it started its transit there in March, you may face a lot of hardship but also a lot of recognition when you put in your blood, sweat, and tears. The fact that these energies are coming into conflict may mean that your partnership may be trying to show you how you’re disconnected from the more Divine aspect of whatever your career is, is trying to show you the ways in which you deceive yourself or others in your career, or how others are deceiving you, and they may also be trying to show you the ways in which your duties towards your career aren’t being fulfilled. This, in most cases, will be unconscious. Our partners can act as mirrors for us and help us grow in other areas of life.

February will be a golden month for your career as a whole. First off, on the 23rd, Mercury is entering this area of your chart. This is an excellent time to network and put yourself out there. All your communications will be wonderfully received.

Libra

For Libra risings, the winter starts off on a great note for finances and career. Your attention is also focused there, since your birth chart ruler, Venus, is currently transiting your second house of personal finances and assets, making you a money magnet and particularly receptive to the energy of money. This transit of Venus will end on December 29th, so use this energy that you have in favor while you still can.

On Christmas Day, there is a beautiful energy between Venus, lighting up the area of your chart that has to do with money and Neptune, now direct, in your sixth house of routine, colleagues, and sixth house activities. Some of you can expect a bonus, raise, or promotion, especially if you make your workplace one that’s more compassionate and easier to inhabit – as most Libra risings tend to do.

The Full Moon of the month on December 27th falls on your tenth house of career and reputation. You’ll be reaping what you sowed six months ago. Important Libra placements aren’t given enough credit for how brainy and strategic you are. You have been planting seeds to get what you want in your career for months now, and you make your superiors and clients think it was all their idea, so those who didn’t see much movement a couple of days before will most likely benefit from this Full Moon. If the results are disappointing, take it as a learning opportunity and figure out what you could be doing better to get better results in the future.

In matters of fun, romance, children (including your inner child), and the arts, Libra risings, the plot thickens in January.

On February 9th, the New Moon of the month offers a fresh new start in your fifth house of casual relationships, romance, fun, the arts, and children. This is the time to manifest a fun 2024 and new opportunities in this area. This is all aided by the planets that are starting to move to this area of your chart. On February 13th, Mars enters your fifth house just in time for Valentine’s Day. It’ll give you energy and drive to secure a date. On the 16th, Venus follows suit, making you more magnetic and receptive to opportunities. If you’re an artist or in any way artistically inclined, this will be a time in which inspiration will strike.

If this focus on this area of life seems excessive and not very balanced (and I know you’re thinking on those terms as a person with a lot of Libra energy), don’t despair, Mercury leaves this area of your chart on February 23rd. In the meantime, enjoy the incredible magnetism you will enjoy on February 17th when Venus and Pluto come together, and, later, on February 22nd, when Venus and Mars come together creating beautiful opportunities of all sorts for you.    

Scorpio

Tahe winter starts with some tension for Scorpio risings as on December 21st Venus, currently transiting your first house of self, forms an opposition with Uranus in your seventh house of committed partnership.

On December 22nd, the Sun and Mercury will come together in your second house of personal finances, giving you both a surge of clarity and a boost in mental energy to sort out whatever needs to be sorted out in this area of your life.

The road towards harmonious one-on-one relationships, especially with a committed romantic partner or business associate, is still bumpy as on Christmas Day, Venus in your first house of self will oppose Neptune in your seventh house of partnership – once again, your own values and self-worth may conflict with a distorted view of reality of your partner, or your partner will ask you to think less about what you personally value and be more compassionate.

Scorpio risings who are single may see the plot thickening on or around February 23rd when Mercury will enter your fifth house of romance and fun. This may mean you’ll be directing a lot of your mental energy here or a potential partner who is rather rational will enter the picture. On February 28th, the Sun is coming together with both Mercury and Saturn in this fifth house of fun and romance. If you’ve been dutiful, you may be rewarded with a brand new relationship with someone who’s reliable and also rather cerebral.

Sagittarius

Sagittarius risings had Mercury go retrograde in their second house of personal finances and assets, so you are probably having unforeseen expenses and other annoying situations surrounding money.
