Astrology Forecast January 17 – 23, 2022

Hope you rested up the last two weeks, as the astrological events in the heavens this week could have us running on all cylinders!

A Cancer Full Moon, also known as the ‘Wolf’ Moon greets us today, which could make us moody and not really interested in work or socializing. Get what you can off your plate before noon, so you don’t feel overwhelmed or frustrated later in the day, as the Cancer Moon opposition with Pluto in Capricorn may have us feeling even more dejected and in a sulky mood.

Cancer Full Moons are also notorious for predisposing us to family drama and triggering disputes with loved ones and relatives, so find your calm center before you leave work to go home. Also take special care with your personal health this afternoon, as we tend to be more vulnerable to illness under this lunar influence.

By the way, Full Moons are a good time for release, so you may want to consider what you’re ready to let go of in your life to get what you want. Friendships? Clutter? Financial obligations that are needlessly draining your pocketbook? Release what no longer serves you.

Things will be a little brighter tomorrow, as the Moon moves into Leo, and Uranus resumes forward motion in Taurus after 5 months to clear away the sense of frustration that many of us have been feeling.

On Wednesday the Sun will move into the dazzling sign of Aquarius and move us to yet another level of freedom, provided we’re ready to experience the new and unusual! New ideas and innovative thoughts will come our way. And Thursday and Friday’s Virgo Moon will have us processing and sorting through each and every one of them.

Take heart, as after a week of several shifts and turns, this weekend’s Libra Moon will work to restore a sense of balance and harmony to our lives before we move forward.
