This week Venus connects to the Saturn/Pluto Conjunction, itself exact on January 12. And with this we may find ourselves further understanding the value of really digging into our roots to find a sense of resourcefulness we didn’t know we truly had. We could find ourselves thinking about assets in a different way, and instead of turning a blind eye to our finances, know that it can be transformational to take a hard look at money matters. It’s a week not to cut corners when it comes to relationships that matter. Finding a deeper level of honesty, first with yourself and then with others, feels instrumental.

Also, this week we’ve got the Gemini Full Moon. And with that, in our search for answers we could find ourselves discovering even more questions. Use these questions to continue to stoke your curiosity as you discover layers of understanding you may not have imagined. Speaking of imagined, and imagination, given that the Full Moon squares poetic Neptune, connecting to intuitive thoughts, visual imagery, and our sixth-sense knowing may help us in our exploration of further knowledge. That said just watch that you’re not overwhelmed by a flood of information and insights, one possible manifestation of this planetary alignment. For more on the Full Moon, see here.

The same day as the Full Moon, Chiron stations direct. And with that, another theme for the week gets even stronger: that of healing. We may find that we’re drawn into situations that ask us to champion a cause, helping others to marshal their will to overcome stasis and slay some proverbial dragons. To do so, we can rely upon our history, the times in our lives when we’ve experienced pain and upset; it may be the tender spots within us that allow us to be more tender as we show up for someone else, holding space for them to touch into and express their sorrow, so that they can continue on their journey of healing.

The kairos this week is also colored by the Jupiter/Uranus Trine. This harmonious alignment of the planet of expansion (Jupiter) and the planet of innovation (Uranus) may encourage us to take a different tact or path. Instead of relying solely upon our go-to’s, we may find that being inventive is what’s called for, and what has us feel quite fulfilled. Detours and surprises may hold the key to discovery, and keeping an open mind—and staying bouncy—may allow us further ability to break patterns and create something that we, just moments before, could not have imagined.
