Mercury and Mars share a minor connection this morning that could cause conflict with others. It’s important to stay in your lane and avoid confrontation at all costs. People might utter things in the heat of the moment that they don’t necessarily mean and can’t take back.

The energy doesn’t dissipate during the day, and it sets an extremely intense tone that can cause temper tantrums. You could find that you’re the victim of someone’s anger, which is why it’s best to ignore the situation and focus on how you can use the energy to add power to your personal life.

The sun and Jupiter share a tender minor aspect in the late hours of the morning, either resolving matters or making them worse. Jupiter likes to expand things, and it can take them to the next level or encourage extreme emotional responses to conflict. The way you react to a situation will depend on how affected your ego is by the morning’s events. If you can let go of the hurt and pain, you can move on. If not, you could be upset all day.

Mercury returns to Capricorn this evening, providing an extra dose of stability to our thinking processes. As we work through the process of letting go that was initiated by last Monday’s Cancer Full Moon (6:48 PM PST 27° Cancer/Capricorn), Mercury is changing our approach, moving us from experimentation and innovation into a more practical and methodical process. The arrival of Mars into Capricorn yesterday began to offer us the practical tools we need to transform our thinking and has us looking for stable, practical, and lasting approaches. Today’s demand for practicality may seem cold and demanding but we may also find comfort in the building sense of stability that is being formed within an entirely new framework. Today’s clarity allows us to set aside our concern over extenuating circumstances and simplify the situations that seem to be challenging us.

2022 LUNAR CALENDAR

JAN 25: LAST QUARTER MOON IN SCORPIO: Moon in Scorpio creates the need to delve into your feelings as deep as possible. You desire meaningful emotional exchanges now more than at any other time even if it is not easy and you are forced to change many things. Shallow relationships do not satisfy you, because they are not purifying enough.

DAILY ORACLE

When Buffalo Spirit visits you with a message of protection, he is asking you to shift your thinking from poverty consciousness to one where you trust the universe will provide. Have you been falling into financial insecurity, worrying that there will not be enough money in the future?

Have you been stressing and feeling sorry for yourself, worrying that because you have no romantic relationship now, you will never have one? Do you see scarcity where there is, in fact, abundance?

Are you comparing yourself to others and falling short? Self-pity, entitlement, fear, and lack are all “thought viruses” that seduce you into darkness.

Buffalo Spirit nudges you to make a gratitude list and be mindful of your thoughts at this time.

Even if outer events have happened to challenge your beliefs in abundance, outer conditions are temporary. If you are suffering from the malaise of fear that you are impoverished, realize that it is only poverty of perception and perspective. Prayer, communion with your Higher Power, and gratitude coupled with compassionate, selfless service will snap you right out of it. Give to someone who has less than you. Be thankful for the tiniest things and say affirmations. Then you will remember abundance is the true nature of the world.
