Weekly Forecast for January 27 - February 2 2025
Note: the dates in this forecast are for Pacific to Eastern time.
This week is brimming with beneficial celestial energies. First of all, Happy Lunar New Year - the year of the Wood Snake.
The first New Moon on 2025, on January 29, is a very lucky one indeed, making an auspicious trine to expansive Jupiter. If you set intentions on a New Moon, don't miss this one! Traditionally, the New Moon in Aquarius is a fantastic time to ask the Universe for help if you feel that something in your life has stalled, and you don't know how to move forward.
And! The very next day, the Sun trines Jupiter.
And! (Not done with "ands" yet 😉) On Feb. 1 Venus and Neptune come together in a highly romantic energy.
January ends on a high note. The energy of luck and opportunities is high in the skies.
Before we get to all this high-energy extravaganza, don't forget to take advantage of the Balsamic Moon, which is great for an energy reset:
✨ Jan. 26 4:36 a.m. to Jan. 29 4:36 a.m. PST: Balsamic Moon
Here is an energy-clearing activity that will also be lots of fun if you have young kids. Go through each room in your house and make some loud noise! Bang on a kitchen pot. Clap your hands. Ring a bell. Sound can clear and break stale energy.
The upcoming New Moon is in Aquarius, after all!
The upcoming weeks are perfect for activities that engage the intellect: learning, reading, solving problems by connecting the dots, social networking, or participating in group projects. Mercury will stay in Aquarius until February 14.
✨ Jan. 29, 4:36 a.m. PST: New Moon at 9° Aquarius
This powerful Cazimi Moon ushers in the Lunar New Year. There are 4 planets in innovative Aquarius, so this New Moon is perfect for intention-setting if you feel "stuck" and need change, or if you want to find "your tribe" - a circle of people who get you. Intentions for success with online dating or social media will also get a boost.
✨ Jan. 29: Mercury conjunct Pluto in Aquarius
This is a great energy for projecting a powerful presence when communicating, at work or in your personal life. If you need to have a boundary setting conversation with someone, this energy is very helpful. For the metaphysically inclined, charge a turquoise + tiger eye.
It's also a great energy if you need to get to the bottom of a problem that you just can't seem to solve. If you're working with a coach or receiving counselling, major breakthroughs are possible now.
✨ Jan. 30 the Sun trine Jupiter
One of the luckiest and most optimistic days of the year! Charge a citrine for luck.
✨ February 1: Venus conjunct Neptune
Avoid starting anything new that you want to succeed during these times:
- Jan. 28, 7:48 a.m. to 11:31 a.m. PST
- Jan. 30, 3:29 a.m. to 2:52 p.m. PST
- Feb. 1, 2:06 p.m. to 5:10 p.m. PST
Are You New to Working with New Moon Energies?
We all have the ability to draw what we desire to us, the ability to manifest the future we want. We don't always use it, because we don't know how! One simple but very effective technique is to learn how to work with the energy of the New Moon.
My popular New Moon workshop is now available as a digital mini-course. You can take it at the time convenient for your time zone. I recommend taking it right before you start setting your intentions: the workshop ends with a powerful visualization that takes you straight into your intention setting.
Participants Say:
✨ I still can’t believe it. Truly, I’ve been talking about moving/buying a house for decades but never felt it was within my reach. I think having those specific intentions, written clearly helped me to focus on achieving those goals. Nothing dropped in my lap and I had to make the effort but rather than having to walk the whole way, a moving walkway appeared at just the right moments to help me over some challenging spots. From now on I’m going to work WITH the Universe!
