Hi loves,
This week, Monday through Friday, offers a perfect opportunity for connection. Whether it is with people, projects, or ideas you have been focusing on, now is the time to launch your plans. The energy is aligned to support your efforts, so gather your team, make the final adjustments, and take action. Whether you are starting a business, planning travel, or diving into creative projects, this is your window. But be aware, it will not last long. Use this energy before the shift comes.
You may also need to have some important, yet difficult, conversations this week. These exchanges are necessary for your growth and should be handled thoughtfully.
A new beginning is on the horizon. Reflect on what you have been working on over the last six months: what should you carry forward, and what must be left behind? New chapters require shedding the old, but it is about finding balance, bringing only the essentials with you. By the end of the week, clarity will emerge around what to take and what to release.
Capricorn season keeps us grounded, pushing us to focus on long-term goals and establishing stronger boundaries. This is not about quick fixes or fleeting resolutions; it is about lasting, meaningful change. The rest of the week invites us to reflect, release what no longer serves us, and get ready for a more transformative phase in the coming weeks.
Let’s dive into the astrology of the week!
Astrology Breakdown 🪐
Sunday, Jan 11th:
The moon enters Scorpio at 2:57 am PT: Intentionally identify and honestly assess the relationships, endeavors, and life directions that truly align with your highest purpose. Then dedicate yourself to these chosen paths, whether a project, relationship, calling, or growth journey, with consistency and active engagement. No more excuses, just DO IT; invest your time, focus, and heart to make them flourish.
Monday, Jan 12th:
Now that you’ve assessed what's truly helping you along this journey. Today, you will want to start compounding and creating your future all the way until Friday.
Tuesday, Jan 13th:
The Moon Enters Sagittarius at 3:33 pm PT
Wednesday, January 14th:
Venus makes a sextile to Saturn at 10:17pm PT. This will help us solve issues/problems with better insight, and it will be part of the larger picture, creating abundance ( 2 planets that help us solve problems are Venus and Jupiter. Jupiter because it's about abundance, and Venus because it's about connection)
Mercury opposes Jupiter at 12:17 am PT. That difficult conversation I was speaking of, this is the day to go ahead and have that conversation. Keep an open mind and have that conversation, reminding us what abundance truly is. What do you really want to do with your life? Do you still want to work where you are? Live where you’re currently living? It's time to take a leap of faith, no more what-ifs, and just do it!
Thursday January 15th
Venus Trines Uranus at 7:22 am PT: This is the day we do something that's last-minute, out of routine. Meeting up last minute with a friend that turns into a party that turns into a fun hook-up. It's live your life, have fun, use your free will, and break the standard rules. We have to sometimes, what's life with the same boring routine? Permission granted to have fun and let loose!
Friday, January 16th:
The Moon Enters Capricorn at 3:44 am PT: Recover from the night before 😅. Use this day to continue compounding on what you’re trying to create for the future.
Saturday, January 17th:
Venus Sextiles Neptune at 12:33 am PT: Get creative, have fun, and do something to treat yourself.
The sun sextiles Saturn at 2:39 am PT. I keep using the word compound for a reason. Continue doing one small thing that will take you to your new beginning. One small thing consistently compounds into something big. Track the work you’ve done, and you’ll see exactly what I mean when I say compounding. Small baby steps turn into something big with consistency.
Venus enters Aquarius at 4:43 am PT: With the planet of love, Venus, do something creative that isn't the norm. Create what YOU want to create, and don't worry about society's views. You are your own muse; you are living in your true authenticity when you do this.
The sun Trines Uranus at 8:58 am: Go to the beat of your own drum. Live within your true authenticity.
Mercury conjoins Mars at 11:28 am: Get your journal out, because your mind will likely be racing, and jot down whatever it is that's coming to mind. Journaling is a healthy way to get your mind settled, and it will also help you get clarity on what path you want to take.
Theme of the Week 🌙
This week is about slowing down and taking stock. The intensity of the Full Moon in Cancer earlier in the week likely revealed important emotional truths, and now it's time to digest those revelations. Instead of rushing forward, take this week to reflect on what’s come up and what needs to be released.
Guidance / Journal Prompt 📝
If something feels heavy, treat it with care. Go slow, speak less, and give yourself space to understand your emotions. Boundaries are your love language this week.
When things feel unclear, especially on January 13, don’t rush. Give yourself permission to pause and wait for more clarity to arrive. Future you will thank you for the patience you showed. 🌙✨

Crystal of the Week 💎
Moonstone
Moonstone is the perfect crystal for this week, especially with the Full Moon energy making its way toward us. This beautiful stone connects us to our inner wisdom and enhances our intuition, which is just what we need right now. If you’ve been feeling emotionally charged or uncertain, Moonstone can help you find balance and peace. It is a stone of new beginnings, making it especially useful for releasing old emotional baggage that may be holding you back.
Tarot Card of the Week 🔮
Four of Pentacles
This card connects to the third deacon of Capricorn. (I will explain more about deacons in future blogs.) This week, as Mercury, the planet of communication, aligns with Mars, the planet of movement, action, and getting things done, expect some important conversations. These conversations may not be easy, but they are necessary.
The Four of Pentacles represents security, stability, and the building blocks of your foundation, but also stubbornness. If anyone challenges what you are working to build, be prepared for words to be exchanged. With Jupiter, the planet of abundance, influencing the situation, you will be able to focus on the positives and take a calmer approach in your communication.
This is an ideal time to use this energy to advocate for yourself in a clear, graceful way—while adding just a little spice to show you're serious. You want to make your point without jeopardizing the relationship. Speak with wisdom, and if needed, consider using lapis lazuli, a stone known for enhancing clear communication.
If there’s something you need to feel more secure in, don’t hesitate to ask or figure out how you can achieve it on your own. You have more resources than you realize. It's time to step outside of your comfort zone and take that leap of faith. The time is now.
