Astronomical weather in early January
New Moon in Sagittarius, January 11, 6:57 AM ET
The New Moon in Sagittarius on January 11 is one of the best new moons of the year. New moons tend to bring lower energy fatigue and mental exhaustion, requiring us to rest more.In Sagittarius, the Moon is more optimistic about new beginnings, forming a broad trine to its dispositor Jupiter in Aries, and Jupiter is ascendant in the D9 chart/Pada 4 until February 2ND.
The New Moon is also around 27 degrees Sagittarius, which in Vedic astrology is an auspicious position in the sky as it is Vargottama and is Pushkara where more manifest energy exists. The new moon is traditionally a period of rest, but also marks the beginning of the auspicious start of events later in the month. In Vedic Muhuta, unlike in Western astrology, the New Moon is an unlucky day for new beginnings, but that doesn’t mean you can’t use this time for creative planning and deep soul searching.
Sagittarius is associated with belief structures, and the challenge for Sagittarius is not to get caught up in religion or fundamental values. Instead, tap into the optimism of Sagittarius to get creative and continue your vision for the new year and believe you can achieve it.
Jupiter Trine Mars: January 12th 6:42 a.m. ET
This aspect is especially powerful for Aries Ascendants because Jupiter is in Aries and trines its own sign.th House aspects create powerful yogas that bring good luck to spiritual activities and service. It also creates a general sense of optimism for Scorpio, Aries and Sagittarius rising, which should bring unexpected good fortune. If you’re involved in sports and other competitive activities, it’s also great for supporting those, but it can also support sales and marketing.
Enjoy the snow and the beauty of winter.
