Sun Signs for January 2012

[ Ari Tau Gem Can Leo Vir Lib Sco Sag Cap Aqu Pis ]

The information in this column is limited. It does not replace your seeing your astrologer. If you know the sign of your Moon and your Ascending sign, read those sections also. This information is helpful because it mentions planets passing through your sign. These do bring opportunities.

Special note: Here's wishing all of you the best in 2012. The emphasis this month is on the signs Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces. Whatever we have in our own charts, we also become these qualities temporarily. Mars moved into Virgo late on the 10th of Nov. and is driving us to work, produce, and serve. Due to its stay in Virgo, until July '12, we should manage stress and conflict and find projects to pour the energy into. If the stress is too much, we may have to lessen our activity. Mercury finishes up a two month stay in Sagittarius. Some long term interest or concern should be finishing up. The Sun in weeks 1, 2, and 3; and Mercury in weeks 2 and 3 are in serious, funny, lusty Capricorn. Desire for honors, earthiness, and cynical humor are a part of us. Pluto is already in Capricorn and will add a natural earthy force to these qualities. A trine from Mars will promote aciton. The Sun in week 4, Mercury late in the month, and Venus in weeks 1 and 2 are in Aquarius. This sign of the “perfected man” shows us being intelligent and involved with associates and promoting the future. Venus is in quite, innocuous, mystical Pisces in weeks 3 and 4 enhances love and spirit. An opposition from Mars pits testosterone against estrogen. This can bring love, action, and conflict. Neptune is in very late Aquarius stimulating both late Aquarius and early Pisces to spirituality. Uranus is in very early Aries stimulating both early Aries and late Pisces to revolution. Saturn is in very late Libra stimulating both late Libra and early Scorpio to embrace responsibilities or burden. Jupiter is in early Taurus stimulating both early Taurus and and late Aries to generosity. A relationship between Neptune, Saturn, and Jupiter can abring balance beteen realism and idealism. A Full Moon in Cancer later on the 7th, 8th, and 9th focuses on emotion and practicality; and personal and private life. We could find ways to honor both. A New Moon in Aquarius on the 23rd and 24th is a fine time to make new starts with friends, hopes, and learning. Uranus continues to square Pluto and this will continue until about 2015. This makes the extreme unpredictable and the unpredictable more extreme. When you hear about events that are unusually bad, like tornadoes and earthquakes, this is one of the culprits. This aspect existed in the early 30s. Jupiter continues in Taurus and the natural world becomes especially therapeutic. Naturotherapy is waiting to heal and restore us. We should all have a natural oasis at home, possibly a garden, even if tiny.

Extra special note: I’m recommending that people read Covey, Dyer, and Chopra during their birth month. They write about achieving success and happiness and this is what the Sun is about in our charts. During the birth month we have the opportunity to start a new cycle of success and these authors have great ideas on how to do it. For those who want to get in on the ground floor of understanding existence and self-improvement, C.C. Zain’s Church of Light books will make you an astrologer and a metaphysician. These books teach us that there is a supernatural dimension in and around us that makes life subtle and interesting. And that Astrology gives us helpful information in innumerable situations. And finally, that we have the power to change our lives through Astrology and by harmonizing our feelings and our thinking.
