We’ve got a pile-up of planets in get your shit together, Capricorn. There’s no time like the present. You snooze you, you lose. The early bird gets the worm. Don’t put off tomorrow what you can do today.. and now insert your own favorite Saturn-ism here! You get the point. It’s time to get down to discipline and duty, but love must factor into the mix or we are just being brutal with ourselves. Know your limits. Know your boundaries. Just say no–it’s a complete sentence.

Weekly Horoscopes
January 8-14, 2018
Aries:
Your energy might dip slightly at the start of the week, but by midweek you’re a master of your own ambitions. There’s major action in your professional zone starting on Wednesday night, after Mercury moves up to the top of your chart. This makes you a communications genius for the next few weeks, so get your message out there. Your ability to articulate who you want to be in the world is stellar at the moment, and you can use this to seed your New Moon dreams – that’s coming early next week. Your status is on the rise right now, Aries – no one can stop you.
Taurus:
You’re all charged up and ready to go places, but not until midweek. A conjunction between the Sun and transformational Pluto starts the week on an uber-intense note – you’re feeling all your feels and then some. But by Wednesday night, you become totally ambitious about your travel itinerary, and you’re beyond ready to roll out your suitcase and jet. This is because Mercury moves into your adventure zone and will remain there for the next few weeks. You’ll want to do more than just get on the road – you’ll want to document your travels on social media. Fill up that Insta feed, Taurus.
Gemini:
Your ruling planet is large and in charge this week – and since Mercury is on the move, so is your mind. Late Wednesday night the communication planet leaves your opposite sign, where he’s taken an extended vacation (thanks to the recent retrograde). After he moves into your house of sex, expect intimacy to be on your mind for the next few weeks. Your closest, deepest relationships are where you find your transformation now. Aim to communicate your needs and desires, and allow yourself to be vulnerable. You will learn and grow – and you’ll love every minute of it.
Cancer:
Your relationships are at the very center of your world this week, Cancer, and you can’t stop thinking and talking about them. On Monday things might be a bit contentious when the Sun and Pluto clash. But after Wednesday, when Mercury moves into your partnership zone, you’ll begin to figure out how to communicate all your needs. This can be exactly the refresher that your relationships require at the moment, in order to move them forward and keep you both on the same page. This is all in preparation for next week’s New Moon in this same part of your chart.
Leo:
Get ready to be mega-productive, Leo! If your work life hasn’t truly picked up since the holidays, it should definitely happen now. You might have a bit of a reckoning about your daily life on Monday thanks to a conjunction between the Sun and Pluto. This wakeup call will give you the impetus to take Mercury’s trip through your work zone seriously. That begins late Wednesdsay night and will last for the next few weeks. You’re able to communicate your ideas and your plans perfectly – and your colleagues are totally listening to you. Bonus: your writing skills should be topnotch over through early February.
Virgo:
Your creativity is beyond fierce this week, Virgo, so don’t let anything stifle your access to inspiration. You might at first feel a bit forlorn, especially on Monday when the Sun and Pluto come together. This will have a transformative effect, and by Wednesday night, when your ruler Mercury moves into Capricorn, you’ll feel totally in control of any impending chaos. Romance, pleasure and all-out fun also play a key role in your life now – and you won’t be able to stop talking (or writing) about it for the next few weeks. Keep your confidantes near and your journal nearer.
Libra:
The stars are keeping you close to home this week, Libra. There’s a huge concentration of energy in your home zone, with several planets close to each other on Monday. When the Sun and Pluto are conjunct early this week you might experience a moment of melancholy, but that should quickly transform into something positive and productive. This is more than likely the case after Mercury moves into this part of your chart late on Wednesday night. You’ll finally get clarity on a domestic or family issue that’s confused or upset you. It’s time to talk it through.
Scorpio:
The stars are asking you to tune into exactly what you mean to say, and then to say it without holding back. The Sun and your ruler Pluto can intensify the meaning of your thoughts and ideas on Monday, and this can make you a bit moody. Don’t suppress it, Scorpio, but don’t let yourself be overwhelmed by it either. You’ll get over that by late Wednesday night when Mercury, the planet in charge of communication, moves into your house of talking and thinking. The next few weeks are fantastic for writing and speaking in front of an audience – it’s your time to teach.
Sagittarius:
The planets are conspiring to bring you great wealth this week, Sadge. You might have a moment of reckoning or even sadness about your current or past financial state early in the week, as the Sun conjoins Pluto. Any realizations will spur you to transform your relationship to money, and after Mercury moves into your house of material goods late Wednesday night, you’ll be able to think and talk your way through any complex problems. You were born wise, but for the next few weeks, your financial wisdom is totally next level. It’s time to strategize and earn extra cash.
Capricorn:
Everything is coming up Capricorn this week (and next, too). On Monday the Sun conjuncts Pluto in your own sign, bringing up some deeper issues about the meaning of your life – your ego is involved, so try to avoid hubris. But any stress is alleviated by late Wednesday night when Mercury, the planet of communication, moves into your own sign, after an extended stay in your dream zone. This truly feels like waking up and moving forward, darling, and it’s an amazing prelude to the New Moon in your sign early next week. Prep your wish list early, because this is a moment to celebrate.
Aquarius:
This week is meant for inner reflection, Aquarius – especially on Monday. When the Sun and Pluto come together in your house of dreams, it’s a moment of deep reckoning and psychic transformation. In other words, this is an emotional day to say the least. Things get a bit lighter by Wednesday night when Mercury moves into the same part of your chart. For the next few weeks you can take your most private thoughts and feelings and communicate them to those that you trust – or just write in your journal. Truly you should do both, because you’ll have many feels to sift through.
Pisces:
Your friends are both sacred and potential sources of strife this week, Pisces. On Monday your close relationships could be tested as the Sun and Pluto come together in your social zone, bringing some necessary catharsis. Even if this is intense and challenging, have no fear, because healthy transformation arrives late on Wednesday night. The communication planet comes to the same part of your chart, enabling you to talk through any complicated issues or ancient angst with your besties. The best thing you can do for the next few weeks is speak from your soul – and listen with your whole heart.
