January 1 – 8 Daily Astrology

December 31, 2019 by cbillum

JANUARY 1, 2020  Daily astrology

Please remember I do not write these to make you believe a certain way, or use an oil or color or gemstone…they are just ideas..   and as always please follow your own sense of what is right and wrong.  Metaphysics does not exist to TELL us what to do.

              TO ME metaphysics is about listening, watching for signs and symbols and then seeing and feeling how it FEELS to me…is it right for me…or not right for me.  I believe in guides and angels and seems they are pretty hard working right now, so make sure and run things past your inner guidance counsel always.  Please …  and …

         Kiss is keep it simple sweetie for the day

V/c is when the moon times out and things do not go as expected

Planets are actors and have a part to play

Signs are the costumes the planets wear

Aspects are how the planets are playing together

Moon is emotions so we keep track of what sign it is in each
day to better understand our own and others moods

DID YOU GET THAT BROOM and sweep out 2019 and bring NEW BROOK in 1/1/2020?

I do this every year to eliminate OLD stuff and open to new.   IT is the cost of a broom and the intentions far outweigh that don’t they?

Missed new years eve?  NO problem just get one the next time you go out and make sure to sweep OUT the old year with that old broom and get rid of it..please..

A QUIZ to begin your new year

I am hoping that you have the answers to this quiz because it seems to me that it might be the most important things for us all during this next year that we have ever done….Knowing these things about ourselves and DOING THEM…

1.  What brings me the most joy in the world? Because without that fire how can I do what I need?

2.  What activates my mind & am I ready for something new to better the world?

3.  What dreams did you have as a child that it is now time to renew?

4.  If you could do anything in the world what would it be?

5.  What gifts do you have to share ?

6.  Do you spend at least 2 days or evenings a month with good friends?

7  Are you ready to admit your potential and begin to create in 2020 what you desire?

8   Are you ready to leave FEAR BEHIND in 2020

9.  Are you going to discover and do all of the above this year?

8.  IF you answer YES, to discover & do, I promise you will truly move into a number 8 year of reward, respect and recognition within yourself and out in the world.

HAPPY NEW YEAR January 01, 2020  the first day of a number 4 year makes this  a #5 day…   are you ready for the 5 of change?   Are you ready for joy?  For Love?  For being happier with yourself?  For doing what you can to help make the world better?  And…If it resides within you, you might want to release all Unhappiness, fear, sorrow, in order to make room for joy, productivity, fun, adventure, risks, creativity and maybe even romance?

Wednesday January 1, 2020

THE MAGIC Carpet ride of the moon in Pisces means that for each of us this next year will resound with the Pisces energy.  Increased intuition, More awareness, recognizing that we are one,

Pisces: (12th house) Water, mutable, about feeling everything this is the 12th and final sign of the zodiac and FOR SURE IS a strong energy on this planet for the next 15 years.   Pisces can be confused, illusionary, visionary, far seeing, short sighted and Like all the mutable signs often forgets to act in an appropriate time period. 
sometimes Waits too long and often things happen to this part of your chart if you do not CREATE A VISION   You usually have a sign in 2 houses so that you can use this energy in more than one area of your life.  FIND these signs, then add this to the house energy…for example.  I have Pisces in my 4th house of home and family and on the doorway of 5th house of children.  DID this make me an disciplinarian or normal parent. OMG  NOOOO…  Lol.   But for us all we are going to feel and use this energy all year along with Capricorn so get used to perhaps creating order out of dreams and visions and imagination and make it REALITY:    

At 6:14pm pst tonight the moon moves v/c and times out before entering passionate Aries at 8pm.

              Today carries great aspects with Saturn   Pluto   and Mars so getting our acts together is possible today and maybe dreams and imagination will be closer to truth than our ideas of reality:

              WELCOME 2020

Kiss (kiss is keep it simple sweetie)          Sit back and wait today to see what happens.

Color today gray for neither black nor white but the middle ground

Oil of lavender to calm and soothe you

Since I am working all day today I shall use pearls for wisdom and connection to others

   DID you know??

January 1st, New Years’ Day, also known as Hogamany, is a Scottish celebration that includes a walkabout around the boundaries of ones’ property. Also called “first footing”, folklore tells us that the first foot inside your door after midnight, December 31 will foretell the flavor of the coming year’s fortune.

ABOUT THE SIGNS OF THE ZODIAC  …signs are like costumes that the planets wear and are the building blocks of understanding what the moon is doing each day.  LEARN these 12 and you will have a real heads up on the world and be able to

Predict a great many things for yourself.

Aries Brave and courageous and maybe sometimes risk taking

Taurus Steady, dependable, sensuous, and sometimes stubborn

Gemini intelligent, open, and sometimes 2 people at the same time

Cancer warm, nurturing, feeling, emotional and sometimes too safety conscious

Leo proud, passionate, intense, loyal and sometimes proud

Virgo intellectual, analytical, practical and sometimes a bit dogmatic

                     These first 6 signs are about self, and learning about self

The next 6 signs are mainly about OTHERS:

Libra is about partnering of all kinds, open to listening and learning about others and sometimes forgets to take care of their stuff as well as they should

Scorpio passionate, fixed, intense, and can sometimes be possessive

Sagittarius the truth seeker and adventurer passionate about beliefs can be dogmatic

Capricorn earthy, practical, hard working, ambitious and often helps others but sometimes does not truly feel as deeply as some of the signs

Aquarius the sign of detachment emotionally in order to work towards a more humanitarian thought pattern

Pisces open psychically, feeling, emotional, and deeply connected to what cannot be seen but only felt.  Sometimes into the illusion rather than the reality

    PLEASE REMEMBER that these are just general outlines of the signs, so do not be offended and say.  I DO NOT DO that. 

You may be a Capricorn with a PISCES Moon (like one of my best friends who turned me onto the essential oils and so many things,) and feel absolutely everything.  This is a general overview for you to better understand the energy of the MOON each day only and not about you or your sun sign personally.  You need a GOOD astrologer and a couple of hours to really understand that information in its entirety…Remember you are LEARNING to be your sun sign and already are your moon and South node…

Thursday January 2, 2020

              The moon in Aries urges us to rush forward today and as early am hours we see Mercury and Jupiter merging energies.  THE mind could be moving faster than a speeding bullet today but remember to slow down as around 10am the moon challenges Jupiter which could cause a bit of rash impulsiveness?

              At 10:30am Mercury and the moon could make for a mis speak  (DO NOT CHALLENGE OTHERS TODAY PLEASE)  this is not the day to exert your VISIONS of how it should be to those in power:

        By 8:45pm tonight we are ½ of the way from the 12/25 new moon and the 1/10 full moon eclipses:  THIS stage is a bit stressful and is called the 1st quarter stage   First Quarter Moon (90 – 135 degrees ahead of sun) This is a time when things come to a head — some might call it crisis time. You feel the friction in the air, but that’s not necessarily bad — friction starts a movement toward solution. Think of starting a fire. You need friction to create the first spark. Rub two sticks together or strike a match; the fire will warm you and cook your food. You may sense a problem but not know what it is. Awareness is still moving toward understanding. It’s the time to implement ideas and look at possible solutions if you’ve identified the knot in a situation.

              Colors for the Aries moon today are  ARIES   Colors are Red and white.  USE cooling energy of INDIGO to quiet down:

Gemstones Stones are Diamond, Rose quartz, Garnet, bloodstone, Herkimer diamond, amethyst, tiger eye

Young living essential oil, something calming like lavender

KISS for today.   Think carefully before writing a check with your mouth that perhaps your fanny will have problems covering

Friday January 3, 2020

Today the Aries moon in a fire sign is assisted by MARS entering Sagittarius around midnight.  Fire and fire and more fire is available today ..plese do not use it for anger.

                  Remember 2 days ago the moon (emotions) was supporting Saturn and Pluto riding sidesaddle together in Capricorn?  Well today that Aries moon ignites, irritates and pisses off these 2 guys who want order and to be the boss.

              3:50pm pst the moon challenges Saturn and then 2 hours later Pluto.  NOT the day for peeing contests …  I would guess that rather than excitement today carries some stresses which have passed down the ladder of power to land on some of your heads.

PS the moon moved v/c at 5:18pm pst and will remain v/c until 8:15am tomorrow.  Last moon v/c aspect was the PLUTO SQUARE so be nice, be kind and slow down…and again…

              BE NICE and live to give your ideas another day please.

Color today black for grounding and centering

Agates, black tourmaline and jet for the same

Oil of Pine to dilate the bronchial track, rids the house of fleas, and stimulates the adrenal gland and your circulatory system.  PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS OIL TOPICALLY if you have HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE

Kiss is (KEEP IT SIMPLE SWEETIE)   be open to new relationship ideas and beliefs today as well as more psychically sensitive to others moods
**************************************************
**************************************

WELL< here we go??   I began to try and look up totems and heard NO:  SO, what is your animal totem?  IF you are interested enough in this section?  Are you willing to google Animal totem and then the creature you are drawn to right now?   So, it begins the Capricorn challenge you working for yourself and not being lumped into the bin of everyone…   xoxooxoxo

Saturday January 4, 2020

              We begin the day with the moon v/c in Aries and that challenging Pluto (power) aspect from last night:  start off slow this am, and the day will improve.

At 8:15am pst the moon moves to steady Taurus and things calm down.  I would hope some type of outing today in nature if possible, surprises are on the agenda as 1:30pm the moon touches on URANUS the planet of change and surprises.

              Have a nature day if possible and if not maybe use oil of pine, or something nature smelling?

TAURUS   Colors are brown, and Turquoise Yellow helps inspire them

Birthstones are Emerald, turquoise, Golden Topaz, Lapis, larimar, Charoite, Carnelian

Oil of CEDARWOOD for me today, YOUNG LIVING CEDARWOOD helps work with DNA and rewrite some emotional things, I use it on my knees and it seems to be working on healing the unhealable.  SLOW but steady but I do love the smell of this oil also.

DID you open that doorway  and sweep out the old year, and

Use a new broom to bring in the New Year? IT is never too late, so

Get up, and do it right now…  LET’S make this year the best we have ever had and allow nothing to hold us back from being our divine and perfect selves.   The week is not over yet

Sunday January 5, 2020  HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAREST CINDY

              Hopefully my daughter is doing something fun today, the energy is good, the moon in Taurus is working with other planets creating a nice feeling energy day.

              This is a great day for writing, imagination is strong as is linear thought and today we are asked to enter into the forest of SELF:

              WHO are you?  WHO DO  YOU WANT TO BE?   What fear holds you back?   What little step can you take today to create the world you desire this year?

              A great day to walk on the wild side and be open to the winds of change blowing through our lives.  8:31pm as a great aspect with transformation happens we are again urged into our own sense of truth and also a stronger look at what is going on in the world.  Somehow tonight the WORLD OUT THERE, seems very close doesn’t it?

Color today pink for love

Use rose quartz, and amethyst for connection to spirit and love

Oil of rosemary to remember who you REALLY are

KISS is it time to remember who you are and again reach for those things to assist you forward?
*************************************************
******************************************
Monday January 6, 2020

              AHHHH it is Monday and what is a Monday without a bit of wtf tossed in?

At 4:08am pst the moon in Taurus moves v/c after making a nice aspect with Pluto and Saturn.  So…nice aspects should bring nice days, right?

              IT COULD be a wonderful day and…Saturn wants control and structure and Pluto wants to run it over and build anew…

             So this v/c until the moon enters Gemini tonight at 6:11pm pst is not a great day for surgery, major purchases, or again tilting the boat unless you are ready for a swim.

              MUCH of this year is going to be about change…is it time to change jobs?  Relationships?  Beliefs, whatever?  The universe is going to try and help you with that…ready or not…

So…walk softly and be aware that as in Buddhist beliefs, something that looks good is not always good, nor something that seems bad, is not always bad.   The saying is…it is not a good thing, it is not a bad thing.  IT IS JUST A THING:  a good kiss for today:

              Kiss:      Beliefs are broad and feelings the same today so use care…

Color today white for purity of mind, body and spirit

Stone smoky quartz, and obsidian, for removing negativity

Oil of Patchouli or use the incense of the same for getting rid of toxic energy.  Helps with depression and fluid retention, get some oil today…IT IS GREAT and I use the incense in the auto and at home all the time

Tuesday January 7, 2020

           Today that Sun in Capricorn works well with intuition and vision and imagination (AKA Neptune)

              At Just a bit before midnight the planet of action and anger  Mars opposes the Gemini moon.  The moon today wants us to find answers, while Mars in Sagittarius would just like some action, finally;  PLEASE:


Todays energies enforce communications of a much easier nature than the last few days and if you are open to options, learning something new and listening you have it made and this should be a fantastic day for us all…

              Kiss,  planets asks you to step back and look at how OPTIONS feel today while listening to those options with an open mind

Color today green for healing

Oil of lavender and oregano for the same

Malachite for power, protection, peace and business success

Wednesday January 8, 2020

We are now entering the power of the full moon eclipse on the 10th.   We should be able to feel energy shifting today as we are asked to use that Gemini moon with Neptune again playing a major part.

              IF there were a sign that Neptune would not really like, it might be Gemini with its many options, its thoughts, ponderings and differences of opinions.

Yet today we are given opportunity to use the linear mind  (Mercury and Gemini)  and the intuitive energy which seems to be coming in so powerfully right now:

The moon makes an aspect with Venus (a good one) and moves v/c so perhaps some of tonights musings could be about how to get what you truly desire.  THINKING outside the box is very strong today and we shall be moon v/c or timed out until 12:43am pst Thursday am…  which will be the day before our full moon.

THE mountain astrologer says of today that brilliant insights turn into practical application.  What a super day to learn something new.

Color today Blue for clarity

Use Sapphire for love, peace, and psychism

Oil of frankincense to clear the air and connect the heart to spirit

Kiss learn something new today

Do you know the Archangel  ARIEL?     The patron saint of animals and the environment, Archangel Ariel’s name means ‘lion or lioness of God’. Her role is to protect the earth, its natural resources, ecosystems and all wild life and is always available with support and guidance for any activities that involve environmentalism and protecting, healing, rejuvenating, and/or maintaining our environment.

Archangel Ariel assists in healing injured animals working closely with Archangel Raphael in these endeavors. It is believed she also works to oversee the order of the physical universe including all planets, the sun, the moon and the stars.

When seeking to learn more about nature or connect more deeply while hiking or exploring, she assists in providing insights and opportunities to expand your awareness and experience. Given Archangel Ariel is watching over the earth’s natural resources, she can also be especially helpful in ensuring your needs for food, water, shelter and other supplies are met.

The Ruling planet of January is Saturn the energy of  structure, order, discipline, duty, organization and efficiency.  Saturn moving through Capricorn with Pluto makes this a very powerful month for building, and getting things done…   Saturn also represents the karma or the things we have contracted to do this lifetime and many of us will encounter that next step during this next month.
