HAPPY LUNAR NEW YEAR! Today also marks the Chinese New Year, or Spring Festival, as the calendar for many Asian countries is lunar-based. In Eastern astrology, this is the beginning of the Year of the Metal Ox.

We are likely to see breakthroughs in honest communication today that allows a variety of quick, sudden, and surprising developments. Although the effect may seem sudden, there is a strong likelihood that such developments are the result of our previous efforts and focus. This is a day when bridges are built and walls are taken down. Communication begins to flow in ways that allows room for further cooperation. There are indications that we can begin to find empathy for those who are struggling to find direction without condescension or judgement. This atmosphere promotes a grand coming together and there is at least a dawning awareness of how to identify and resolve our distinct differences in ideas, attitudes and approaches.

Excitement and adventure are today’s themes as the moon sextiles Uranus. You’ll be filled with optimism about any important pursuits you may have, and this is assisted by the moon moving into the dreamy sign of Pisces early this morning. Dreams and illusions will seem tangible, and your creativity will be extra active today.

Trying something new is appealing and to you and highly advised today, and you could spend time with some unlikely characters. You’re also going to be quite lucky when it comes to information. By chance, you could learn something from a stranger that’s useful to you, or you could happen upon some intriguing news while scrolling through your social media feeds. Your mind could be sharper than usual, and you’ll be ready to be spontaneous. Some zany adventures could await you on this fortunate day.

The change in your demeanor might surprise people who know you well, but if that happens, just explain that you’re attempting to lower your inhibitions and leave your comfort zone. Trying new things isn’t always bad, especially if you can channel this into breaking a bad habit while you’re at it! Your intuition won’t lead you down the wrong path today, so follow your instincts and you can’t go wrong.
