Astrology of the Day – New Moon in Capricorn - Wednesday 17th January 2018


New Moon in Capricorn
The New Moon forming

The Moon starts off in the sign of Capricorn closing in to the Sun, and at 2.16am UK time, a New Moon will be formed. The New Moon in Capricorn complements the sky very much with Saturn, Mercury, Pluto, Sun and Venus also in the sign and quite appropriately, it will highlight the structure of your life, what you need to build and work on to make things better for yourself in accordance to your values, as it is conjunct to Venus. This a sober New Moon looking at things in a very practical manner, and yet there will be a need to get your life in gear with a sextile to active Mars and update yourself at the same time as it is going to be square to Uranus. The story of this new Moon then is work on the basics and the structure of your life, to be proactive and look for new opportunities to improve on the basics that you already have in place. A revolution of sorts awaits you if you take up the challenge being offered today.

After the New Moon completes, the Moon moves onto quickly make a conjunction with Venus, a sympathetic and caring position and one where you will be thoughtful and understanding to loved ones, friends and family. This conjunction in Capricorn isn't looking for any kind of praise and flamboyant gestures, practical assistance is much more Venus in Capricorn.

The Moon then shifts into the sign of Aquarius and finally there is a change from the Capricorn overload that we've been under. Aquarius is a sign of untouchable glamour, electric, vibrant and unique. Now is our chance to show a different side to our character, the more crazy side. Now is a time connect with like-minded people, those who share our vision and our points of view, as Aquarius is a sign of the community.

Now adding in to this New Moon and just before the end of the day, Mars forms a very difficult looking inconjunct aspect to Uranus. The inconjunct is a shearing aspect, one where the planets are neither in complementary signs nor elements and they are associated with adjustment, separation and difficult change that we have to cope with. Mars and Uranus brings speed, aggression, rebellion, shocks, unexpected actions and sometimes perversity to the table and the combination of the two can bring about hard to cope with actions and change, breakages and accidents through recklessness or taking too much of a risk. Just because this risky aspect comes after two days of relentless, staid, responsible Capricorn energy, this one could see us taking too much of a chance as the opportunity to finally let go comes around. As a result, there might be a chance of sudden fires or other incendiary incidents that colours this day
