This week continues to concentrate power through Capricorn and is delivering a very specific lesson: structure will not hold if it is built on an unhealed wound. This is a lesson for the individual and for our global collective. For too long, the divine feminine within humanity has been suppressed, oppressed, and vilified. The rest of this month is a major activation of rebellion and rejection of this oppression and subjugation by the patriarchy.
Weekly Astrology Forecast
With Venus, the Sun, Mars, and Mercury in Capricorn repeatedly squaring Chiron in Aries, the astrology exposes the pressure points behind ambition. This is where self-worth gets tied to performance, where leadership becomes overcompensation, or where independence masks a fear of needing anyone. The reality check is direct and sometimes uncomfortable, but it is clarifying. If something stings this week, it is showing you exactly where strength can become more honest, more embodied, and less defended.
Towards the end of the week, Venus, the goddess of justice, balance, harmony, women, and equality, enters Aquarius. She will join up with Pluto during her transit and form a sextile with Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius. The cosmos is calling the divine feminine all over the world to stand up, fight for their rights, and never submit to religious patriarchy or forces that seek to oppress them.
Sunday, January 11: Venus in Capricorn square Chiron in Aries
Relationships, money, and self-esteem come into focus first. Venus in Capricorn wants commitment, maturity, and reciprocity. In a square to Chiron, you may see where you bargain for love, prove your value, or hold back tenderness to feel safe. This transit can surface old attachment patterns, but it also offers a clean moment of truth about what you will, and will not, invest in going forward.
Monday, January 12: Sun in Capricorn square Chiron in Aries
This is an identity checkpoint. The Sun in Capricorn asks you to take yourself seriously, but Chiron in Aries highlights the tender fear underneath: being exposed, being judged, getting it wrong, not feeling ready. It can be a sensitive day for ego, confidence, and visibility. The goal is not to harden. It is to recognize what is still tender and lead yourself anyway, with integrity rather than bravado.
Tuesday, January 13: Mars in Capricorn square Chiron in Aries
Mars is exalted in Capricorn, so the drive to act is strong and strategic, but the Chiron square can turn motivation into proving, pushing, or conflict when pride gets activated. Watch for impatience, defensiveness, or power struggles, especially around responsibility and respect. Used consciously, this is potent energy for disciplined action and decisive boundaries, as long as the impulse is rooted in purpose rather than pain.
Wednesday, January 14: Mercury in Capricorn opposite Jupiter retrograde in Cancer
Midweek brings a push-pull between practicality and emotion. Mercury in Capricorn wants clear plans and measurable outcomes. Jupiter retrograde in Cancer pulls attention inward toward family patterns, memory, protection needs, and emotional truth. The opposition can amplify opinions and expectations, making it easy to overstate, overpromise, or argue from certainty. Keep your focus on what is workable now, and let emotional data inform your decisions without hijacking them.
Thursday, January 15: Venus in Capricorn trine Uranus in Taurus
This is the first real release valve of the week. Venus trine Uranus brings a breakthrough in values, love, money, pleasure, and self-worth. This is often through an unexpected option or a refreshing shift in perspective. Because it’s an Earth trine, the change is usually constructive and tangible: a new approach that actually fits your real life. If you’ve been stuck in a pattern of scarcity or obligation, this can open a door.
Friday, January 16: Mercury in Capricorn square Chiron in Aries
This transit can sharpen conversations, especially around competence, responsibility, and who is carrying what. Words land on tender places. It is not a “say nothing” day, but it is a “say it clean” day. Be mindful of defensiveness and projection. The most productive use of this aspect is naming the real issue without turning it into a weapon.
Saturday, January 17: Sun in Capricorn trine Uranus in Taurus
The week closes with forward motion and a sense that the work you’ve been doing internally is ready to become action. Sun trine Uranus supports bold, grounded change, life upgrades, pivots, and decisions that liberate you from stale structures. This is innovation with traction: something can be new without being unstable.
Venus enters Aquarius: Saturday, January 17
This is the week’s major shift in tone. Venus leaves Capricorn’s cardinal earth and enters Aquarius' fixed air, changing the relational and values climate from tradition and proof to freedom, authenticity, and future-minded connection. Love becomes less about roles and expectations and more about shared vision, intellectual chemistry, and respect for individuality. Financially and creatively, Venus in Aquarius favors experimentation, unconventional collaboration, and investing energy in what feels progressive and true to who you are becoming.
Tarot Card of the Week
This week, I'm tapping into the Modern Witch Tarot Deck by Lisa Sterle. This is a modern and practical take on the traditional tarot. The Two of Wands is the card of poised expansion: the moment after desire becomes real and before action becomes irreversible. It speaks to vision, planning, and the quiet power of choosing a direction. One hand is still on what you’ve built; the other reaches toward what’s next. That tension is the point. This card asks you to stop waiting for perfect certainty and instead commit to a strategy that matches the future you say you want.
In the context of this week’s Capricorn pressure and Chiron activation, the Two of Wands reframes the question from “Am I ready?” to “What am I willing to take responsibility for?” It highlights where ambition is calling you forward, and where fear of exposure, rejection, or failure tries to keep you small. The work is not rushed. The work is deciding. Choose the path that supports long-term integrity, not short-term approval.
On a practical level, the Two of Wands favors mapping, pitching, initiating conversations about next steps, and setting timelines. Travel or working abroad is also a theme with this card. It’s a reminder that expansion requires structure: know your resources, define your boundaries, and be honest about what you can sustain. This is a week to claim your horizon, then take the first concrete step toward it.
