Weekly Horoscopes January 13 - January 19, 2020

Overall theme for the week: Be honest about your feelings and expectations. Don’t be afraid to ask for what you deserve, even if you don’t have a clear picture of what that is. Keep it simple. Less is more. 

This week’s energy demands that we practice and commit to the art of simplicity. Many will require more sleep and rest than usual; honor your body’s need to be still. With Saturn and Pluto separating from their monumental conjunction, many of us will feel raw, soft, and more exposed (open) than usual. This energy will continue to expand and evolve over the next six months as we integrate the long-lasting effects of the Capricorn Solar Eclipse in December and the Cancer Lunar Eclipse that occurred last week. 

With Venus entering Pisces on the 13th, sensuality is on the rise. Many will feel a deep pull to express self-love, self-nurturance, and self-assurance on a subtle energy level -- think the law of attraction, synchronicity, telepathy, intuition, soulmate, and twin flame energy. Venus in this placement influences dreams and encourages us to imagine love, beauty, prosperity, and emotional abundance at the highest level. However, with Mercury entering Aquarius on the 16th, this energy must be balanced through independence and safe dosage of detachment. With Venus bursting open our heart chakras, we need emotionally independent Aquarius to keep us on track when Pisces’s selflessness becomes harmful. If you’ve been seeking new ways to express your affection, manifest the love of your life, or attract abundance authentically, the 15th is a good day to see results.

The Libra Last Quarter Moon on the 17th encourages us to evaluate the areas in our life that are imbalanced, especially our relationships with others (but also our relationships to habits, behaviors, places, food,  or anything that we have a commitment or attachment to). This lunation also supports diplomacy. If you’ve been on the outs with a lover or unsure about how your current situation fits into your desired future, this is the time to sort it out. For many, this is an opportunity to make a clean break. Make sure to prioritize self-care and reflect on who you are as an individual. We may feel torn between the past and the future on the 18th. But only time will tell. Be patient. There is still a lot unfolding.

Weekly Horoscopes for All Signs:

Aries: The beginning of this week can feel emotionally overwhelming as you integrate the effects of eclipse season. Overlapping timelines and commitments exhaust you, so be honest about what you are capable of -- this isn’t the time to be the superhero. Midweek tends to even out as Venus in Pisces forces you to prioritize your need for rest and seclusion. The Last Quarter Moon on the 17th brings up challenges in your ego and close relationships. Let others take the lead for once -- you don’t always have to be in the driver's seat. 

Taurus: Who you are and what you’re doing changes by the minute this week, Taurus, so be open to the unexpected wild ride. A group project or organization receives positive benefits on the 15th. Make sure you compliment your team for a job well done and an innovative spirit. This weekend is tough for you with the Moon opposite your sign. If you feel overwhelmed or fearful (especially about finances), remind yourself how far you’ve come. Change can be scary, but it doesn’t have to be. You are on the right path.

Gemini: You may feel a deep urge to rush through something at the beginning of the week, Gemini, but slow down. You could be feeling a sense of betrayal or agitation from a close friend or business partner, but this will pass. If you feel the need to address it, wait until the 17th. This weekend encourages you to be honest about your feelings without fear or malice. A rebirth in your work or home life will most likely occur on the 18th -- stay open for new ways to advertise and receive. 

Cancer: Fast changes are happening for you, Cancer, but you still feel a slow-burning sense of impatience. Instead of staring at the clock or checking your phone for updates every five minutes, try detaching from your source of anxiety for the week and see how that affects you. A sense of competition or entitlement could blind you from the opportunities right in front of you, so be mindful of your ego. The Last Quarter Moon in Libra on the 17th urges you to make amends with a family member and make improvements to your home. Take time to rest and relax this weekend -- you need it. 

Leo: If you obeyed your body and your spirit’s call to rest over the past few weeks, you should be feeling a rebirth coming soon. The beginning of the week may feel like a drag but hold on. By the end of the week, you should feel a strong sense of passion and creativity. This is the perfect weekend to tune in and get grounded in your emotions. From this space of safety and security, your intentions and progress will flourish. Family matters may cause tension, but don't fold. Be firm and graceful in your boundaries.

Virgo: A relationship with your significant other, family member or business partner is turning over a new leaf. If you’ve been looking for new avenues to expand or grow your self-confidence or personal income, a fortunate opportunity may come through a friend or partner at the end of the week. As you continue to unfold and explore all this year has in store for you, remember that your emotions control a large part of it. The more you can express and release, the more space you have to build. Take advantage of the mental detox you experience this weekend. Let go of negativity and self-defeating thoughts. You are worthy!

Libra: The beginning of the week is busy for you, Libra. It would be in your best interest to handle all your social affairs then because you won’t have the energy or the care for it midweek. With the Last Quarter Moon in your sign on the 17th, you are wrapping up a personal project or goal. Use this lunation to get clear on your priorities, especially where your money is concerned. If you are looking to invest or launch a project, take the simple route. You don’t need anything but your truth to shine. 

Scorpio: Your career and work-life/profession will have you front and center at the beginning of the week. This is the perfect time to expose your diverse talents and skills, especially through the digital world. A desire to grow and take your skills to the next level will increase as the week wanes on but don’t forget about your priorities. It may be best to gather with a close group of friends that motivate you and who are also about their business. The more organized you are, the better you will feel. The end of the week brings an ending to a relationship or self-love issue. Use this energy to clear your aura for a new cycle. Scorpio moons will experience a magnificent rebirth.

Sagittarius: You are most likely coming off a short vacation or weekend getaway. The first few days of the week may feel unusually boring as you worry about what’s to come. But instead of playing the worry game, focus on the small details. What can you do in the present to secure a more grounded and productive future? Managers or leaders may have to deal with an unexpected crisis or personnel issue at work. The Last Quarter Moon on the 17th encourages you to spend time with close friends and your love this week. Use this time to celebrate all you have overcome. 

Capricorn: The beginning of the week starts at a low point. You are very anxious and nervous - the fire energy you feel has you restless and uncomfortable. But by midweek, you will be feeling more grounded and confident. Instead of imagining the worst possible outcomes, you will take control of the situation and guide the energy in your highest favor. Think of yourself as the director -- you give the actors (energy/spirit/God) full control, but you are still calling the shots. The end of the week brings a conclusion to your work life. If you are looking to expand your opportunities or move forward in your career, you may meet someone who can open that door. Stay open.

Aquarius:  Love is on your mind at the beginning of the week. Coupled Aquarius’ will find this period joyful and playful. Singles may turn to their friends for comfort and affection. But by midweek, your focus will shift to your financial priorities and obligations. A feeling of lack or scarcity may puzzle you, leaving you with a fear of abandonment or disorganization. But instead of reacting negatively or withdrawing into seclusion, write down what needs to happen. If you need a budget, write that down. If you need additional income, credit, or living space, write that down too. The more you can be open to what needs to happen, the less anxiety and stress you will feel.

Pisces: The beginning of the week has you feeling more domestic than usual. You may find comfort in inviting friends over or playing hostess. Just don’t backtrack on your word of letting old lovers or negative energy in. With Venus entering your sign on the 13th, all the attention you give to others will suddenly come crashing back on you. Prepare yourself because if you aren’t careful, you will find yourself giving your power away. The Last Quarter Moon in Libra on the 17th will help you with this. A rebirth in how you express affection, intimacy, and shared power/resources/energy is being cleansed. You should end this weekend feeling more intuitive and awake than usual. Let this magic sink in.

January 2020 Love and Sex Scopes

Love and Sex Horoscopes January 2020: 

January 2020 begins with Venus in Aquarius and Mars entering Sagittarius on the 3rd. With Venus in Aquarius and Mars in Sagittarius for the first two weeks, romance and sex will be on the adventurous and unusual side. Venus in Aquarius swoons for a partner that can stimulate their mind and show them something new in the bedroom -- and Mars in Sagittarius has the experience and stamina to take Venus for the ride of their life. 

Until Jan 13, relationships will be light-hearted and fun. There isn’t too much pressure on commitments and talk of the future, even though you may bring it up slightly on Jan 8. The first two weeks of January are all about quality conversations, new experiences, and flirty sex. This is a great time to build a solid friendship before becoming “lovers.” Couples will enjoy spending quality time with their partner without feeling burdened by responsibilities. But be mindful of how much you spend on dates and gifts, it’s still Capricorn and Eclipse season.

Once Venus enters Pisces on January 13th, things will start to become emotionally intense. If you were unsure how you felt about your boo at the start of the new year, this transit will bring you all the feels (especially around the Jan 10 Cancer Full Moon and Lunar Eclipse). Couples will find themselves going out of their way to please one another, especially with Mars in Sagittarius being such a giver (it aims to please). If you are looking for a more serious title or commitment, it may come between the 10th and 14th. This is also a time of sporadic breakups and relationship changes, especially with Uranus stationing direct in Taurus on the 10th.

If you can, plan a sensual night out or a romantic stay in on Jan 15. With Venus in Pisces, the Moon in Libra, and Uranus in Taurus, sparks are bound to fly. Things will get hot and heavy on the 17th when the Moon in Scorpio aligns with the Capricorn Sun. You and your partner may get into a verbal disagreement on the 20th. So, watch your words. Don’t speak out of anger or frustration. You will regret it later.

Love and Sex Scopes for each Zodiac Sign: 

Aries: Coupled Aries will find this transit invigorating and expansive. You may be spending more time with close friends on a group date or entertaining at home. However, you must prioritize your needs as a couple. Make time for quiet conversation and late night/early morning pillow talk. The best gift your partner can give you right now is sacred space and their undivided attention. Singles will enjoy mingling with friends and dating in a crowd. A potential lover or romance may come through a mutual friend or family member. You aren’t as sexually charged as you usually are, you prefer intimacy and mutual interests instead.

Taurus: Love and sex are the same for you this month, but your focus is more on your personal goals and long-term commitments. Singles may find it hard to put themselves out there. Couples will enjoy partners who can help them brainstorm and solve useful problems that pertain to both their desires and goals for the long-term future. This is an excellent time for lovers to put their heads together and manifest their goals. If dating (regardless of your status), try new local spots that fit your budget and your low-key mood. Mars urges you to get out of the house and socialize. There’s no telling who you will meet once you’re out there.

Gemini: Love options are numerous for you this month, Gemini. If you were experiencing a drought in the love department, get ready for a splash. Coupled Geminis will find this transit invigorating and refreshing. You enjoy playing sexual mind games that provide your partner the ultimate satisfaction. Singles will enjoy playing the field and keeping things light. You could easily meet someone during travel or could reconnect with a long-distance lover. Just be flexible with your expectations because it’s likely you or this person are still not ready for a serious commitment. Towards the end of the month, you may have trouble hiding your true feelings. If this person doesn’t reciprocate your affection, the romance is most likely to end. 

Cancer: Love is a battlefield for you this month, Cancer. Couples will find themselves constantly at odds, but this helps you find common ground to move forward. A lot of your frustration comes from not being honest about your needs in and out of the bedroom. Being truthful and honest about your romantic and sexual desires is all that it takes for you to receive the gratification that you’ve been longing for. Singles will most likely be attracted to someone older and mysterious. Be careful not to attract a toxic love connection out of fear or boredom. Instead of throwing yourself on the first person who gives you a little attention, observe your patterns. What’s your type? Stop chasing “the bad” ones. 

Leo: Love is on your mind all month, Leo. This is the time of year where you crave love and affection the most, regardless of your relationship status. Couples will have an interest in the greater world. You will pay more attention to the trends and will find yourself comparing your life to others. This can be very inspiring for some, especially if you and your partner are inspired and motivated by others. However, if you’re not careful, you may find yourself molding your life after an illusion. Instead of looking for ways to improve your relationship, ask yourself what’s already working. What do you and your partner have that just clicks? Build on that. Singles who aren’t dating will most likely focus on their friendships. Instead of going out alone, go out in groups. Casual sex is high for you. This is the perfect time for a “fling.” You may meet a potential lover through work at the end of the month, stay open. 

Virgo: Problems at home occupy much of your mental space this month. You want to be close to your family and your love, but work demands and responsibilities just keep getting in the way. Couples should use this as an opportunity to evaluate their schedule. Where are you overworking and how does this affect your relationship? Scheduling 30 minutes in your day to connect with your love is all it takes for both of you to feel heard and appreciated. Singles will find this transit frustrating as they aren’t comfortable sharing their entire life story on the first date. By the end of the month, prospects will change and you will find yourself more in alignment with the energy of Pisces. Instead of looking for love, love will most likely come looking for you. If you’re single, be patient. You won’t have to wait for too long. 

Libra: Friendship is the keyword for you this month, Libra. The first two weeks of the month are very positive in your love life. Couples will feel like they are dating their best friend. Don’t be afraid to take the lead. Singles will most likely channel this sexual energy into a passion project or their own creativity. The second half of the month is where things get rocky. Your emotions sometimes cloud your judgment and you can come on way too strong. Instead of letting your feelings drown your love interest, find a creative outlet. The more you can self-soothe, the more turned on your partner will become. In this case, independence is sexy.

Scorpio: As much as you love sex and intimacy, this month is all about feeling safe and secure. Couples will find themselves sharing their deepest secrets and connecting on a spiritual plane. The more you and your love can open your heart and let your walls down, the deeper your connection becomes. Singles will find this transit frustrating, as they don’t like feeling out of control. You may encounter stubborn individuals who want things their way, and this just doesn’t fly with you. Instead of giving up, just be patient. Things start to go your way when Venus enters Pisces in the middle of the month. The resistance you were feeling from your crush or dating scene will fade, and suddenly all eyes will be on you. 

Sagittarius: How you communicate and express your affection becomes more clear this month, Sagittarius. Regardless of your relationship status, you are more in tune with your subconscious desires and needs both sexually and romantically. If you’ve been confused or withdrawn in either department, expect some movement this month. Couples may feel a desire to have more space and personal freedom, just to explore their personal goals. Instead of resisting this distance, embrace it. The more you allow others to be themselves, the more clear you are on your role in their life. Singles will enjoy this transit as friendships are plentiful and flirtation is at its peak. However, things start to get hectic when Venus enters Pisces. You and a lover may have a hard time communicating, especially if you are married or share a home. Be mindful of your words as others are more sensitive during this time, and they may misinterpret your feelings.

Capricorn: Love and business go hand and hand this month, Capricorn. Couples will find themselves in a period of improvement and mental unrest. Most likely, you and your partner are in the middle of a major life transition. Instead of arguing over your differences, find a way to work together. The more you can flush out your issues verbally, the more you will connect sexually, and this leads to explosions in the bedroom. Singles will most likely be attracted to individuals that increase their sense of self-confidence and social reputation. Although you would love to just play the field, you know better. If this person doesn’t add to your net worth, they aren’t worth the time or energy. Towards the end of the month, you are more emotionally available and interested in a deeper connection. Just watch out for codependency and making promises you know you can’t keep. 

Aquarius: Relationships are all over the place for you this month, Aquarius. Just when you think you know where you and your love stand, you or them change their mind. With so much planetary energy affecting your ending and seclusion sector, this is not the best time for you to start a new relationship. However, couples will naturally feel a sense of transition taking place in their personal lives, and this affects how they communicate with their partner. If you feel disconnected or distracted, let your partner know what’s going on. Even still, your sexual energy is through the rough. Things get more sentimental once Venus enters Pisces. Treat yourself to a makeover or feel-good gift. You deserve to be spoiled and spoil yourself. And if sex has been an issue, don’t worry, you have no clue what’s in store for you.

Pisces: January isn’t an easy month for you romantically, but even still, things should be going well. The first two weeks of the month may bring up old memories and past lovers. Couples may have to make a conscious decision to keep moving forward together, rather than apart. By the end of the month, you will be so happy with your decision. The way that you feel about yourself is shown through the way you treat your partner. Love Making should be intimate and emotional. Make sure that you use protection unless you’re trying to conceive, the energy for birth is increased. Singles will feel frustrated during this period. A sense of loneliness and isolation is disheartening. However, when Venus enters Pisces halfway through the month, you should start to feel rebirth energy. If you want to start something new, you’ll have the opportunity to, but it may be better to continue focusing on yourself.
