Answer on Pg. 31

January has two zodiac signs. One is Capricorn. What is the other one?

TAURUS (Apr. 21-May 20)

Before you can pursue the future you need to take the opportunity to deal with endings that are necessary. There can be much to think about to early February when it comes to commitments you either want to make or may need to make. There is a letting go process somehow attached to this as something can’t be the same anymore.

LEO (July 23-August 22)

You have got one last chance to get matters in order, which very likely relates to getting rid of the unnecessary so that usual routines can take a new direction more freely. Other people could present you with all sorts of things to consider up to mid February. They could be insistent and determined to have things go their way.

SCORPIO (Oct.23-Nov21)

Pay attention anything you need to wind up when it comes to ideas or plans you have been considering of late. There will be much to put in place up to mid February that could be quite different to the way you have set things up in your life before in that you can have a more intense focus. This may have some connection to home and family matters.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

Any pressure from the expectations of others of late can start to wind up quite quickly, leaving you free to give thought up to early February as to where you want to head. Something that once seemed so important to head towards may have lost its appeal as you begin to realise there are other choices that could transform your life.

VIRGO

(August 23-Sept.22)

An overload of social focus of late will now begin to change bit by bit this week. The new centre of attention will be routine involved in daily activities up to mid February. Health can also come under the spotlight especially if you feel it is time to transform yourself in some way. You can develop the willpower to stick to it.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov.22-Dec.21)

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.18)

Many things on a personal level can begin to pick up with your birthday coming up. Mercury, the planet of thought and communication will be in your sign until 7th February as will Venus from now until 10th February. This combination is excellent when it comes to making decisions about you in a balanced manner. There can be an element of endings attached.

CANCER

(June 21-July 22)

There can be a weird combination of endings, associated with another person that has new beginnings attached. They could become quite secretive, up to mid February, when it comes to what they are seeking to transform in their life. Benefits can continue to come your way and this is what you should keep your focus upon.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct.22)

Getting a good foundation in place, which can include home and family matters, can now reach a point where you can leave some things behind because new directions are taking their place. There can be much to enjoy to mid February, although it could be a mixed bag. This might also involve new directions associated with young people.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22-Jan.19)

You could feel satisfied with any decisions you have made when it comes to your spending to bring some things to an end. It is creating a new beginning in a way and will now allow you to move on and put your mind to other things up to mid February. You could be surprised at how singularly focussed you can be.

Things can start to quieten down on a personal level or where your involvement has been necessary. This could include many distractions you may have had to deal with. The New Moon this week is in your sign, placing you in a new situation in some way. This will be due to endings of somedescription,eitherchosenornot

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

You could see the benefit of either letting go or winding up something that has been important for a long period of time. Your priorities are changing. It is possible you may feel you have little choice. Up to mid February you need to find time to yourself to contemplate the next stage of your life that begins from late January and mid February.

ARIES

(March 21-April 20)

You either need to take a new approach to commitments or take the opportunity to bring an end to any obligations that might be in the way of committing yourself to something new. This is an excellent time to initiate a fresh approach to your priorities in life. You could firm up something you felt was important, off and on, since 2023.
