Weekly Horoscope: January 3-9, 2022

Pat yourself on the back, friends. We’ve clawed our way out of 2021 to the (somewhat) glimmering hope of 2022. Here’s to new beginnings and (hopefully) fulfilled new year’s resolutions!

A Capricorn new moon opened this new year, adding to the big Saturnian energy that’s been brewing. For those who may have forgotten, the sun, Venus (planet of love), and Pluto (planet of transformation) are currently in the sign of the Sea Goat. But back to the new moon. Though its peak was on the second, there’s definitely still time to set intentions for the next month (and year)!

Beyond Luna, Venus in Capricorn goes into a sextile with Neptune in Pisces on Wednesday, adding some whimsy to the ordinarily stern vibes of the season. Finally, Saturday finds the planet of love in a conjunction with the sun, shining a bit of sunlight in the darkness of Venus retrograde. The collective may find that they are in the mood for love — and given Capricorn’s influence, only the very best.

Gemini

Emotional rumination generally isn’t the Gemini way. You guys a flighty bunch and prefer not to let heavier emotions weigh y’all down, and that’s understandable. However, the hoard of planets in Capricorn continue to roost in your sector of emotional transformation and intimacy, forcing more reflection and immersion in any difficult emotions. If you’re unattached, what’s preventing you from opening up? Take advantage of Saturday’s sun-Venus conjunction, and speak your truth.

Cancer

Cancer, Venus continues its transit through your romance zone, so you may be feeling a little lovey-dovey. With the planet of love’s sextile to Neptune via your philosophy and long-distance zone, it’s a good week to get out of your comfort zone and contemplate approaching relationships — both platonic and not — from a different angle. Since lovely Venus is still in retrograde, it may be best not to engage (or get engaged) but make a plan of attack for Valentine’s Day next month.

Aquarius

People don’t necessarily consider winter to be the most social season of the year, but you’ve never been one for doing things the “normal” way. Have you, Aquarius? Last week, the planet of communication slid into your sign and appearance sector, putting you in a chattier mood than normal and alleviating some of those heavier Capricorn vibes. However, the sun, Venus, and Pluto in the sign of the Sea Goat continue their sojourn in your hidden sector, so while you may more conversational, these talks may take on a heavier tone this week.
