Astrology Jan 16th - 22nd

PLACEMENT OF PLANETS JANUARY 16TH 2017 12:00AM

Sun - Capricorn: Outward manifestations are developing your public self. A good time for career advancements and receiving reward for all efforts. If you’ve neglect your disciplines you will suffer more than needed. 
Moon - Virgo (Conjunct South Node of Moon): Two days of details, cleanliness and finding order.  Reaping the bounty and rewards earned through diligence to ones service.
Mercury - Capricorn: Three weeks of inconspicuous contemplations and expressions. Potentially a solemn time needed to create internal or literal structure before we emerge from Winter’s hibernation and Mercury’s retrograde shadow. A time to break down projects, ideas and thought processes into manageable parts; then begin taking strategic action. Be weary of becoming impatient, judgmental and easily bothered by others.  Release disappointment to find extraordinarily valuable exchanges. 
Venus - Pisces: One month of sensitized change in personal relations and sensual self expression. Borders and personal boundaries may begin to blur.  Caution if allowing yourself to be victimized or deluded.  Rather cultivate more compassion for your suffering and learn to recognize other’s as we all are different streams of consciousness flowing out of the same deep sea.  
Mars - Pisces: Six weeks of sensitivity. A withdrawn nature to explore the secret mystical depths of your reality. Subtle emotions surface and you may tire easily. 
Jupiter - Libra: One year transit of evaluating partnerships and the role they play in your life. A good opportunity to make progress in interpersonal relations and release those that do not support your vision.  Find the balance between self service and serving others.
Saturn - Sagittarius: 2-3 year transit deepening the mental activity to seriously concentrate upon new horizons. Broaden goals including metaphysical, mental, spiritual, and material. What is the true source of moral and ethical evaluation that lies within you?
Uranus - Aries: A seven year transit (Started in 2013) Impulsive changes. Disruptive behaviors creating a stressful time causing great internal pressure. A time of tremendous creativity and unexpected resolutions. 
Neptune - Pisces: Fourteen year transit (began in 2009) Unconsciousness influences a desire to connect with the Higher self. 
Pluto - Capricorn: A sixteen year transit (2010) Transformation within patterns of your professional life. A juggling act of many demands and commitments. It is a marathon not a sprint. 
Chiron - Pisces: A six year transit re-examining your deepest feelings to define yourself in terms of your own private universe. Deep-seated old wounds surface in new scenarios to face these issues and evolve into your potential. 



This week will be a quiter week providing several opportunities to  establish a routine laying the groundwork for all plans/intentions/goals set at New Year.  How badly do you want to achieve what you've intended?  Are you willing to put in the effort to reap the reward?
