TODAY’S HOROSCOPE — JANUARY 30th 2021

Mercury retrogrades three times per year and today is the launch of the first season, through air signs. The other two start on May 29th in Gemini and September 26th in Libra. Mercury features the externalisation of your thinking, communication, commercial and reasoning abilities. However, the retrograde motion through Aquarius wants you to think about the theoretical frameworks that shape our world.

Travel back into 2020, as it’s a good example of how we experienced the reshaping of our lives. During last April and May, Mars was moving through Aquarius. Mercury’s current retrograde from 26 to 11 degrees covers part of the route that Mars took. So cast your mind back to the transformations:

  1. What do you now think of their impact?
  2. Did the actions you took back then, deliver the intended results?
  3. Do you have new or unconventional ideas that would improve our collective experience?

Between now and February 20th, use your energy to tap into your intellectual curiosity. Allow the form behind the visions you have, to emerge. This will enable you to treat what you see in an even-handed and detached way. Your ability to do this is strengthened because from February 2nd, there will be five planets in Aquarius. Venus adds to the collection and joins Mercury, Saturn, Jupiter and the Sun.

Therefore, as Mercury moves pass each planet, examine how consciously aligned are you with the visions. Take account of how much faith you have in them and check whether they feed into your values. The Moon’s 1 degree transition into Virgo opposes Mercury, so it requires you to be discerning. This evaluative process will guide you to fusing your mind with your emotions.

“When you are in alignment with the desires of your heart, things have a way of working out.”
