January Horoscopes

by Henry Seltzer

Pisces Horoscope (February 19 - March 20)
Mutable Water. Your ruling planets are Neptune and Jupiter.

This is a visionary month for you Pisces, when you will hatch concepts enough to last you the rest of the year and beyond. You have lately been conscious of a basic instability in your identity center that is also productive of new concepts that emerge, fully formed, to dazzle the thoughts of your normal waking awareness. This month these effects are accentuated, especially during the first two weeks, punctuated by the presence of the January 4th Solar Eclipse. Your ideas are potent right now, and whatever you sincerely wish for has every chance of coming true in good time. Later in the month you are applying concepts of connection with others directly to your work in the world, and this turns out to be a powerful combination.

As the month begins, you are energized but not frantic. Your life is in flux, that much is obvious, but you are operating at this moment from a spiritually and philosophically grounded approach. It's a cliché but there is little doubt that this month is the first one of the rest of your life; you feel on the brink of important changes. You have been testing your wings out in the world and attempting through that process to find the right place for you to land as far as your public statement is concerned. It has to be just right. Although it is easy to give in to the demands of consensus thinking, it is also easy to see how going all the way in that direction would leave the process of your inner guidance behind and thus be a mistake. Yet, on the other hand, you cannot leave mass consciousness entirely out of the picture either, for then where are you? These are among the considerations that you have been turning over in your mind lately as you evaluate where you might be heading as this 21st century decade of the teens continues to unfold. The Solar Eclipse and New Moon of Tuesday, January 4th, forms an important focal point of the first half of the month, which is the most volatile part of January. While fully aware of the past and of particularly its shortcomings, you are filled at this time with inspiration for a brighter tomorrow. You are riding a wave right now of sheer exuberance and creative thought. Yet, there is no going forward without taking your emotional self into account, that part of yourself that is without words, and that factor appeals quite clearly to your deeply intuitive inner soul when you follow its impulse. The First Quarter Moon of Wednesday, January 12th, represents a time of relative tension in your process when there could be some disputatious exchanges with others over the your current path. The energy of this phase stimulates both your thought process and your native courage to stand your ground in spite of everything. You benefit by seeking synthesis. The period of time from the 15th to the 17th is particularly dicey and reminds you once more that your life direction is definitely in transition and all that you espouse at this time is subject to variation. The Full Moon of the middle of the week, taking place on Wednesday, January 19th, represents a calmer time, a fulfillment of everything that has been in process for you in the weeks leading up to it. This might feel like a good time to begin to catch your breath as you enter this new segment. The last two weeks of January will allow you to make everything more concrete. What was thought and felt over the first half of the month needs grounding into actual experience; needs to be tried out as a practical vehicle for embarking on your next phase. You need to be aware as well that it might not completely arrive until the springtime. These are significant considerations that you are engaged in determining for yourself over the course of this monthly cycle, and there is no way to exaggerate their importance in your life or their future impact.
