Horoscope: January 22, 2016

Your stars today


Shelley Von Strunckel January 22, 2016

Aries | March 20 – April 19



You’ve meant to discuss certain matters with others but the time was never right, and you were short of facts to back up your thinking. Now that events are forcing these out in the open anyway, be frank. Tell them what you know and seek out the missing details together.

Taurus | April 20 – May 20



This weekend’s Full Moon not only brings certain persistent issues to a head, it highlights questions about much needed changes on the domestic front. You may have been hoping you could ignore these or, alternatively, you’ve discussed them but made no decisions. Now events give you timely, and much needed, encouragement.

Gemini | May 21 – June 20



Life’s been exciting but relentless. You need a break. Now that the Sun is in your fellow air sign of Aquarius, and accenting ways you could broaden your horizons, you get it. While this could mean there’ll be relief from the pressure you’ve been facing, it’s as likely you’ll get away.

Cancer | June 21 – July 22



When you first sidestepped certain delicate issues, it was because others were sensitive to matters of this nature. Or so you thought. Actually, they assumed your intention was to deceive them. Judging by potent aspects to Pluto, planet of truth, you must explain your intentions, in detail. There’s no other solution.

Leo | July 23 – August 22



While you might be aware of some of the issues being roused by the emotionally intense Leo Full Moon, you may regard others as purely practical difficulties. This isn’t just about feelings, it’s likely to be a time of endings and beginnings, in your domestic or working life, as well.

Virgo | August 23 – September 22



The last thing you want to do is make somebody uncomfortable by pointing out their mistakes. But if you say nothing, things will go wrong for them and, possibly, for you. The odds are good they’re already aware something is amiss. Express your concerns discreetly. They’ll probably thank you for it.

Libra | September 23 – October 22



Although Mercury’s retrograde cycle comes to an official conclusion on Monday, it’s unlikely the minor difficulties you’ve been facing will vanish overnight. However, there will be progress. You’ll find you’re finally able to get to the bottom of issues that you were beginning to think you’d just have to live with.

Scorpio | October 23 – November 21



If your instincts are telling you that plans you’ve worked hard to organise won’t last long, that’s probably true. On one hand, this is disappointing, on the other, it’s a relief. In fact, with the actual circumstances you’re dealing with having changed, and changing again, you’ll welcome greater flexibility.

Sagittarius | November 22 – December 21



Certain conflicts have concerned you but not so much you couldn’t live with them. Now they’ve become pressing. That’s due to the retrograde Mercury, which is triggering confusion, around you and in your own life, especially in these unspoken issues. Discuss them. It will explain many of the complications you’ve battled recently.

Capricorn | December 22 – January 19



In early November, the forthright Mars moved into the crucial midheaven angle of your chart, beginning an intense period of review of both your existing arrangements and priorities. However, on 3 January it departed. This means you must back off and allow your plans to unfold in their own time.

Aquarius | January 20 – February 17



This weekend’s Full Moon accents close relationships, personal and professional, and brings both acknowledged and unspoken issues to a head. Obviously, you’ll want to talk these through with an eye to defining and resolving them. Judging by the next few days’ emotionally intense mood, however, any lengthy discussions should wait.

Pisces | February 18 – March 19



The past weeks have been complicated, so much so you’ve wisely sidestepped certain already tense issues. Now, however, you owe it to yourself and others not only to raise these, but to begin talking them through. While resolving them could take time, simply beginning those discussions will make a huge difference.
