The astrology this week invites us inward. To inquire and feel. To review and to rewrite. To support and accept. There is emotion asking to be witnessed. There are insights sitting within our bodies asking for our presence. And there is guidance waiting in the silence. Your weekly horoscope for January 12-15, 2025, reminds you that your inner world is the space from which you create your outer world. You must begin from within.

January 12 | Moon Enters Cancer
January 13 | Full Moon in Cancer
January 14 | Moon Enters Leo
January 15 | Sun in Capricorn Opposes Mars Retrograde in Cancer
January 16 | Moon Enters Virgo
January 18 | Venus Conjunct Saturn
Cancer Full Moon
This week brings our first full Moon of the year that swims in the Cancerian waters of emotion, feeling, and expression on January 13, 2025. Cancer is ruled by the Moon, which means both cosmic energies represent our feeling nature and offering nurturing, insight, and liberation. It is through healing our own relationship with our emotions, and by creating safety in feeling, that we are offered the empowerment, self-awareness, healing, and transformation that the full Moon in Cancer is offering us.
Asking that we honor our emotional knowing, our deepest needs, and the sacredness of our own energy, the full Moon invites us to create the space to feel, listen, and receive the insights traveling through our emotional body and feeling nature. There is freedom available under this lunation. Through the doorway of feeling, listening, and presence with ourselves, the liberation available comes through learning how to honestly and lovingly tend to our hearts and learning how to build and live in a way that honors ourselves.
Sun Opposite Mars
As the Sun travels through Capricorn, we are guided to look ahead. To consider our desires and goals. And to begin planning, building, and organizing our practical realities based on those directions. When the Sun comes into an opposition with Mars retrograde on January 15, 2025, however, we are invited to bring greater consideration and intention to our planning and building.
Mars retrograde in Cancer asks us to reflect on how we honor our needs, our energy, our emotions, and our life force. This time is a mirror reflecting back to us the ways in which we place ourselves last, whether through overextending, saying yes when we want to say no, saying no when we want to say yes, dismissing our own emotions or intuition, or placing our fulfillment and worth on outside achievement or accumulation.
This opposition is an opportunity to clear away any noise, ideas, or visions for our future that come from someplace untrue within ourselves, whether an unmet need, a feeling of unsafety, a sense of unworthiness, or something else. In this pulling away, we meet our true desire and direction.
Venus Conjunct Saturn
There is much energy swirling in Pisces throughout 2025 with various planetary dances happening in this realm of the zodiac. This week is no different. January 18, 2025, brings both Venus and Saturn together in the waters of Pisces and invite greater commitment to our desires, values, creative pursuits, and relationships.
In astrology, Venus is the feminine voice of love, beauty, value, and magnetism whereas Saturn holds a serious nature relating to its governing themes of authority, discipline, ambition, and responsibility. As these two planetary bodies come together in partnership, or conjunction, we are offered an opportunity to review our values, desires, and goals and devote ourselves to them once again. It’s an opportunity to bring healing and empowerment to our relationship with responsibility and practicality.
This day is the blending of love, desire, and creativity with practicality, integrity, and commitment. The conjunction also invites us to bring greater alignment, purpose, stability, and heart into our visions and goals for this new year and beyond.

Cancer Rising
It’s very much your week. It’s a week to come into complete acceptance of your nature and tthe way you feel and perceive, nurture and intuit. And it’s a week to release old identities, harmful self-talk, and emotions about yourself and life that were never yours and were never true.

This week invites you to lean into the waters of the sacred. It is in these waters that we not only receive nurturance, love, and safety but it is also where you cleanse ourself and release old layers, identities, fears, and emotions that are hurting you.

Your heart has been whispering to you this week. It’s been sharing with you about your direction and your desires. About the life you envision and the dreams you are here to create. And about the commitments, devotions, and steps you are ready to take in life, creativity, and partnership.
Libra Rising
This is a week to bring your inner and outer worlds into greater alignment. Remember your heart as a compass and your life as a beautiful opportunity to create something meaningful. Start by connecting within. Let thatt inform your direction, your desires, and your next steps.

Your understanding of the world desires an update. The way you perceive and the beliefs you hold. The way you feel or don’t feel safe in the world. And the way you belong. Create space in your mind and reconnect with your heart so you can let old narratives unravel and new ones take shape.
Sagittarius Rising
This week invites you to listen to your deepest needs, the ones coming from your underworld, from your hurts, and from your fears. It also reminds you not to dismiss them but rather to show compassion and acceptance for them. Remember that you are safe within feeling, within emotion, and within intimacy with yourself.
Capricorn Rising
How safe do you feel with intimacy? With being seen, loved, and asked to open your heart? This week invites you to tend to these spaces within yourself, to create that inherent safety within your own body and self, so that you may bring healing and presence to your relationship with partnership.
Aquarius Rising
It will soon be your rebirth. Until then, your weekly horoscope invites closure and silence, inner safety and reconnection with your emotional self. As it does so, it brings a focus to your body and nervous system and any unhelpful habits, routines, and patterns that you are ready to release or change.
Pisces Rising
You belong in this world. All your expressions, contradictions, and hurts. All your fears, quirks, and layers. This week reminds you of this, inviting you to create a greater sense of safety and belonging within yourself so that you can move through this day and this world in a way that is liberated, real, and fulfilling.
