Your weekly horoscope is here. As “la luna” swings into peak emo on Monday, we’re all channeling the canny, yet home-loving vibe of cozy Cancer. As full moons are always opposite the sun, this month’s polarity activates themes of emotional vulnerability and care versus your professional boundaries and external structures. How is the power balance in your life? Stepping up to the plate or ditching the game if the rules will never support you? The key is to innovate, or switch out and try something radically different if you want the results to change. Build your own version of living your best life. Be gentle with yourself and others while communicating your truth with compassion. Consider, “How does this benefit me,” and “How does it benefit the listener, or my audience?”
Read on to discover what’s in store for your sign during the week of January 12, 2025, through January 18, 2025.
Aries (March 21–April 19)
This week’s full moon has an intense thread to it, especially if you’re born later in Aries season. In the iconic words of the original Japanese anime character Astro Boy, “Let’s rocket!” Use the tension of this lunar peak to drill down into your domestic sphere and foundations while making tracks in your professional life. Be the bold, intrepid Aries—that’s you! And like Astro Boy, have heart. These two things are mutually amplifying, not mutually exclusive. Action may be more about recon due to the current backtrack of action planet Mars, but that’s okay. This is your sign to try something new, innovate, and pick up useful data on your demographic or topic. The ‘north node of destiny’ has finally moved out of your sign, so a shift to empathy, art, and discovering your soft side may be part of your overall action plan for the next eighteen months.
Taurus (April 20–May 20)
La luna is in peak moon mode in your sphere of local connections on Monday. What’s new in the neighborhood? A fabulous new neighbor, new favorite coffee shop, or taking a more active role in your community? Note themes bubbling up over the weekend. Gut instincts are sharp and hot, yet you’ll have to practice objectivity and discernment to capture the full picture. Observe how you emotionally connect and to whom, how you drive your emotions or are driven by them. They’re often very valuable intel as long as you remember navigation is a job-share arrangement between your gut instincts, heart, and rational mind. Balance your local life with the bigger picture, travel, and a wider conversation on a topic capturing your attention.
Gemini (May 21–June 21)
Feelings around finances peak in the run-up to Monday’s full moon in your sphere of resources. What does this cosmic call-out draw to the surface of your awareness? Take note as the moon corresponds to your subconscious or nonverbal side. If your gut instinct is pressing on a particular point, take a closer look. This is the manifesting phase, so what did you begin, plan, or set your mind to six months ago at the beginning of this cycle? Balance through shared resources, the deeper or even esoteric side of life and connection. A powerful attraction or collaboration is in the wings, bringing a professional approach to a mutual interest. It’s time to take yourself seriously. Two parts make a whole, so team up and share that spotlight! No matter what you’re doing, do it to the biggest and best of your ability.
Cancer (June 22–July 22)
It’s a full moon in your sign, Cancer, on Monday, so feel powerful as they ebb and flow through you. This one has an assertive twist to it, so don’t be embroiled in anything that’s not worth the outcome. Try a third-party’s take on things to help find new options and perspectives you might be at a stalemate on. Since the moon lights up your sign, your gut instincts on what you need to act on are heightened. Don’t sit around waiting for inspiration or something to be done; hop to it. If you hit obstacles, find that road less traveled and take an alternate route. There are many roads to Rome, as the saying goes. Balance partnerships with your personal requirements and pump the boundary brakes when needed. Enjoy the mood and note what the full lunar beams reveal as gut instincts, feelings, events, or epiphanies.
Leo (July 23–August 22)
A bright full moon in your zone of dreams and the subconscious suggests this is the perfect time to explore the lunar reveal through journaling. Since full moons tend to shine a light on or draw out contents of our psyche not usually in our conscious awareness, let’s make the most of it. Set a dream journal by your bed and write with a pen rather than type, if possible. If you’d prefer to regale your phone’s voice recording option while still ensconced in your morning wake-up routine, then you do you, Queen. Themes around nurturing, familial emotional connections, and nostalgia are all up for a check-in. While the full moon is a great time to get out and about, especially over food and close company, do take some time out. Set up your foundations for work and balance by curling up in your cozy cocoon to integrate and digest the past annual cycle.
Virgo (August 23–September 22)
It’s a social full moon for you this Monday, Virgo. Since the final buildup, technically called the gibbous moon phase, is over the weekend, call your squad and catch up on all the news. Brainstorm with the hive mind over your favorite comfort food and enjoy some nostalgia. A booth in an inviting Italian diner with plenty of character and charm will set the mood to delicious. Soak up the connections and go around the group giving appreciation and gratitude to amplify the feelings of love and bonding you all share. This full moon is a powerful and challenging one to themes of home and the fragility of our place in our ecosystem, as well as the structures that keep it all in place, so give it some positive prime time to channel the energy constructively in your own lives.
Libra (September 23–October 23)
Fortune often favors the bold; however, this week a full moon activating your professional and public sphere says otherwise. While maintaining your foot on the pedal and hand firmly on the steering wheel, emotional connections of warmth, belonging, and safety are important. Constellate your career crew, bond over sharing bread, or whatever brings you together and builds the team. The same with your adoring audience or others you come into contact with. Nurture your path forward with planning, attention, and by supporting yourself and your vision. Surround yourself with people who believe in you and love to nurture your forays in the world, whether that’s climbing the career ladder or building your own unique path. Balance by tending to longer-range structure, and professional development.
Scorpio (October 24–November 21)
La luna lights up your sphere of travel, education, and philosophy on Monday, so the weekend is like a teaser to compelling action in one of these areas. Since the full moon is hosted by sister water sign, Cancer, this month, a tour of the world’s best houses, beaches, or foodie destinations may seem like a far-fetched dream. However, why not think big? If you could, what would you do, study, where would you travel to? Who would you want to connect with, and how can you bring that into your life somehow now, in your own way? This is a great week for building inroads or, like those floating pontoons out to a boat, throw yours out toward your vision. The balance point is being local in your own community, building expertise, respect, structure, and reputation. Local action versus international ideas. It’s a lot, so chunk it down to something you can work with.
Sagittarius (November 22–December 21)
Let Monday’s full moon beams provide a romantic atmosphere as it activates your zone of intimacy, esoterica, and other people’s resources (and secrets). All weekend is date night, and into the week, so spend time building the bonds. In the sign of Cancer, this one may push you to open up and share those emotions, so get vulnerable; it will bring you closer. If there’s a collaborator with the resources that match your talent, explore how you could combine forces. Let yourself, ideas, or business be nurtured, Sagittarius! The balance comes from ensuring it’s a value deal for you as well as the third party. Participation requires negotiation, and you must meet your bottom-dollar expenses and then some, so generosity needs to flow both ways! Tend your accounts and business or financial structure and plan for the year.
Capricorn (December 22–January 19)
Since it’s your solar (aka birthday) season, the full moon is in the sign opposite to yours, watery Cancer. Activating a polarity, suggesting balance in your personal path in the world with your significant relationships, from bae to bestie. So note themes that come up and find a way these two parts of your life can work in harmony to enrich your experience. Take an active role in connecting, nurturing, and perhaps reaching out with a little emotional vulnerability or tenderness. Don’t take a business approach; it’s not about practical duty, it’s really about building a personal feeling of belonging. Note who really stands out one-to-one over the week and who shines as the nurturer to you. Spend quality time with plenty of comforting food, drinks, and trips down memory lane. A bubble bath (or luxurious spa) wouldn’t be off-brand for this one; nurture yourself too, Capricorn!
Aquarius (January 20–February 18)
The realm of wellness, routines, and work all get the full moon activation as it peaks on Monday. Perfect for getting back into the routines that you will build the resulting harvest on. So nail them down, Aquarius, and be ready to nourish them and yourself. Your wellness routine underpins your ability to enjoy your day and your work. If you can build them into your daily work life, that would be ideal. Instead of that extra cup of coffee, try a green tea. Or perhaps it’s just regular movement and more hydration that you really need. Healthy emotional connections and feeling received in warm company are important, and this moon also shines on the state of those and what you may need in order to have it just right. Bond with your work crew, let customers know you care, and balance by preserving time for yourself to integrate your experiences and feelings.
Pisces (February 19–March 20)
Hosted by a sister water sign, Cancer, this week’s full moon is supportive, harmonious, and those connections feel extra warming to your sensitive soul. No matter what your schedule entails, write in space for fulfilling self-expression with your family or crew, and note what you’re drawn to in your leisure time. How are you spending those free hours when you have them? Nourish yourself with what feels best and take a creative approach to taking action on something that might otherwise not fill your cup. What occupies your attention most of the time? Are you doing something about it or just dreaming, worrying, or otherwise? Plan your response and approach so you’re set up to roll. Balance pursuits down your personal rabbit holes by connecting with your larger community or bringing your creativity to the larger sphere.
