For the general energy of January 2021,
It begins with an Eclipse, then goes on with a new moon, then it finishes- with the high point in a full moon in Leo.
When we look at an astrological month, the 21st of January, is going to be a really strange date. I would not say I’m afraid of it, but I would say please, be careful, because it’s a date that a lot of aspects hard and dynamic and big aspects are happening at once.
My general advice for that day is be careful. Something explosive might happen–in an international way. Perhaps plan to stay home and just chill out that day.
We have squares, we have conjunctions, and we have moon conjunction with Uranus moon conjunction with Taurus moon square with Jupiter, Moon Trine with Venus. It’s crazy.
Sue purposely brought in the Tower card from Tarot to highlight the energy that she feels is coming up during this time.
The Tower card in tarot highlights the fact that taking responsibility sometimes shifts everything. And so even though things start to fall apart annd changes occur, taking responsibility actually encourages you to push things away that aren’t really fitting into the ideas and dreams you really have for the future.
Aries (March 21st – April 19th)
Horoscope:
Don’t be impulsive with money. Since Mars left your sign, things have started to look up as far as finances are concerned. But make sure you keep a cool head. Patience will help you out this month and you’ll be rewarded for your calm head.
The new moon on the 13th might bring a new love into your life and a new romance may develop.
Tarotscope:
7 of Wands shows us that you might have to put in a little work and effort in order to get the rewards you are looking for. I also feel like this is a month when you really have to watch what you say because even though it might have been something you’ve been pushing down for a long time, you have to measure the impact of your words.
Taurus (April 20th – May 20th)
Horoscope:
Revolutionary Uranus brings a lot of ups and downs for normally stable Taurus. You might be feeling stressed, violent, like you want to blow it all up. Just stay calm… or learn to stay calm as this particular influence will be present for the next 6 years!
Also, beware of little accidents and things that will be annoying but caused by you being so distracted.
The new moon on the 13th will bring good news, so you will be in a good mood afterward.
Tarotscope:
The Empress comes up to tell you to take good care of yourself and those around you. It’s also an indication that things you have been working on in the background might come to life this month.
Gemini (May 21st – June 20th)
Horoscope:
Contradictions and mixed messages might put you off this month, Gemini. Make sure that your own communications are clear and on point so you avoid issues.
Mental health is also important this month. Don’t be afraid to reach out and get help. Lean into your friends and loved ones, the people who make you feel better about yourself and your life.
The new moon in Capricorn will influence you to want to work, work, work. Make sure you take time off so you don’t burn out. And watch what you say about whom. Gossip might come back to haunt you.
Tarotscope:
2 of Pentacles
You might have to juggle a lot this month. I encourage you to find stability and see if you even need to juggle so much or if you’d do better to just put those balls down.
Cancer (June 21st – July 22nd)
Horoscope:
Even though you might want to continue to hold on to the way things were in the past–especially regarding relationships and your home (how like you, Cancer). It’s time to move on, though. Be like Elsa and Let it go!
In January, you might feel a boost of energy that will help with letting go. Make sure you keep a positive attitude.
Don’t sign any contracts around the new moon, Cancer. Wait until the energy has cleared a bit. And someone from your past might be making an appearance in your life.
Tarotscope:
The Ace of Pentacles shows that there will be new opportunities and energy in your home and business life. You will be pleasantly surprised with how lucky you are this month.
Leo (July 23rd – August 22nd)
Horoscope:
You might feel irritated by the energy of Uranus in Aquarius, bringing up a bunch of life lessons for you. But it seems like luck will be on your side, bringing new opportunities your way. Make sure to take them, because they might not stick around.
You might not feel great around the new moon on the 13th, so take good care of yourself. And watch out for the full moon on the 28th because there will be a truth revealed to you and you’ll want to pay attention to the new tactics, people, and ideas around you.
Tarotscope:
4 of Swords
If you can, Leo, take some time off. The best thing you can do for yourself right now is to take a step back, take yourself out of the busy energy, and relax a bit.
Virgo (August 23rd. September 22nd)
Horoscope
Things are shifting in your life, too, and you might be facing some big obstacles. Keep your eyes focused on your goals and stay strong.
Why not get rid of the stuff in your life that you just don’t want or need anymore, the stuff that is weighing you down?
And stop trying to do 1000 things in one second. This has to stop.
But your relationships–one in particular–will get stronger during the month of January.
Be careful around the new moon. A misstep might ruin a job opportunity you’ve been working on for a while. And the full moon will require patience, a positive outlook, and focus. Don’t allow yourself to get thrown off course.
Tarotscope:
7 of Swords
Watch out for the people around you, Libra. This card is one of dishonesty and deception. But also, I wonder if you need to think about if you are being honest with yourself about what is going on in your life.
Libra (September 23rd – October 22nd)
Horoscope
You are going to finally feel like you can relax. With Mars leaving, you can breathe again. But these issues will be back if you don’t face them.
Don’t allow nostalgia and thoughts of different times to pull you into a longing for a different time. You live in the here and now. Remember that.
There will be a lot of contradictions around the new moon and the full moon for you. Business will get better and your popularity will soar.
Tarotscope
5 of Pentacles
It’s time to learn to make it on your own. The things that you once found sanctuary and comfort in might not be there for you any longer. Find strength in yourself.
Scorpio (October 23rd – November 21st)
Horoscope:
Well, at least you are used to change! There’s going to be a lot of it for you.
This month, your business will likely start to become more successful. Actually, you’ll start to feel more successful in many areas of your life.
Watch out for self-sabotage, though.
On the new moon, spend more time with your partner and your family–the people who matter to you. And on the full moon, start really paying attention to the things you want in your life, and those you DON’T want in your life.

This card can be an indication of fresh air and a fresh perspective entering your life. Is it a new way of seeing things or a new idea that spurs you in a totally different direction?
Sagittarius (November 22nd – December 21st)
Horoscope:
You might be feeling a call to visit far off places, which can stir your traveling soul.
Just be careful. Like many of the other signs, this month shows some issues with money coming up. Don’t make investments that aren’t 100% safe.
The same goes to energetic investments. Make sure you aren’t giving too much and getting burned out.
The new moon on the 13th might bring a new love into your life and a new romance may develop.
Ultimately, the message for you is make love, not war. Make it your mantra this month.
Tarotscope:
10 of Wands
This is a card that represents the physical and mental fatigue Alexandra was talking about. Make sure you take breaks or you might end up exhausting yourself. The hard work and effort are worth it, just make sure that you aren’t biting off more than you can chew.
Capricorn (December 22nd – January 19th)
Horoscope:
January will not be the easiest for you. You are a workaholic, and you are starting to shift how you do things, which is good, but HARD for a Capricorn to do.
You are fed up with limitations and restrictions and Taurus will be lending you ambition and determination. Finally, things will start to shift for you.
The new moon brings you opportunities, and also the decisions you have to make around them. That means maybe it’s not so good for new beginnings, but it’s good to think about decisions that you have to take. And the full moon brings you to serious cases, again, that seek solutions and you will find them.
You better think is the song that comes to mind.
Tarotscope:
The Sun
This is a card indicating a lot of optimism and it underscores the forward motion that Capricorn is undertaking in the moment. Capricorns need to find away to move forward, calculating their move and making sure that their movements will ensure their stability in the long run. The Sun is a great omen for Capricorn finding the next step easily.
Aquarius (January 20th – February 18th)
Horoscope:
Aquarius is THE sign of the year, so a LOT will be happening for them. So we have the lucky Jupiter, that makes a spectacular entrance and the energy is in full swing.
Be careful to not lose your balance. And be careful not to be pushed away from your loved ones in that energy because it’s going to happen if you aren’t careful about how you express your emotions and how you implement change in your life.
Remember, too, to be happy with what you have.
There is a lot happening in the background, and some. of it can cause conflict during both the full and new moon phases for the month.
Tarotscope:

And so this is new fire a spark of creativity, something new is going to happen that’s really going to get those passionate juices flowing. Now as we know a spark can be something that lights a fire and warms the home. Or it can be the tinder that sets off the explosion. And I think that’s what you’re talking about here. Like really make sure that if you feel a spark of anything, even if it’s creativity. It could fuel art or change in society. But make sure to avoid negativity and keep your temper.
Pisces (February 19th – March 20th)
Horoscope:
You’ll get lots of news this month, and even things from the past are coming back into your life. You’ll be picking up plans that you set aside a while ago.
It’s time to redefine how you feel about yourself and especially how you think others feel about you. You havemany good friends, next you will care about you and advise useful goods and properly, do not overestimate it.
And just keep it simple. Find your balance.
Go easy this month, especially around the full moon on the 28th.
The new moon on the 13th might bring a new love into your life and a new romance may develop.

While you might be ultra comfortable with esxpressing yourself to your loved ones, just make sure you don’t overdo it. Ground within yourself. anddon’t gush too much. it might be a time. for reflection on your feelings, rather than full on vibrant displays. Stay calm in matters of love.
