Horoscopes: January 14th-18th
Aries: Aries are known as the leaders of the pack. They prefer to initiate rather than complete. They are independent, have an upbeat personality, and bring excitement into other people’s lives.
- There may be some serious miscommunication this week, so be honest with everything that you do and say. Be as straightforward as possible, since issues can backfire if the truth is clouded. Honesty is invaluable and must be maintained at all times. You have the power to make a lasting impression on people and any emotional impulsiveness could send you spiraling in the wrong direction.
Taurus: Tauruses are all about reward and enjoy psychical pleasures, as well as material goods. They have an eye for beauty, tend to be good with finances, self-indulgent, and a little possessive at times.
- You may not be sure what to think this week. Mental confusion could be the week’s theme for you, but don’t let it get you down. Realize that it’s just one of those weeks when none of the pieces fit quite right. The truth is that they do fit somewhere, just not now. Not everything has to happen right away so wait for the right time to take action. Things will pick up soon as the fog lifts and you can see clearly again.
Gemini: Gemini love to talk. They are expressive, quick-witted, sociable, ready for fun, but can also be known to be two-faced at times.
- Things are moving in your favor this week. As the week progresses, you will find that the energy will intensify. Conflicts may arise, but don’t worry about it too much. See it as a call to action. Simple yet meaningful encounters may prove richly rewarding, try to go outside of your comfort zone and you may be surprised how good you feel about yourself in the end.
Cancer: Cancers take pleasure in the comforts of home and family. They love to nurture others. They are also known to be sentimental, emotional, sensitive, and to get attached very quickly to others.
- You should feel loving this week toward just about anyone you like and respect. Clear communication with friends and family could enhance your understanding of them and vice versa. The bonds in these relationships will be strengthened, perpetuating the good feelings you’ve felt all year. Current bonds grow more devoted, while new ones become close. Keep the lines of communication open.
Leo: Leos love being the center of attention and have a desire to be loved. They are known to be impatient and egotistic, yet passionate.
- There’s an extra bit of fire in your words and emotions this week. Your sensitivity is heightened and you should consider doing something to ease the tension that is building up in your body and find good outlets for the feelings that are welling up inside you. You may talk about saving the world, but talk will get you nowhere until you put those ideas into practice.
Virgo: Virgos are picky, critical, and have great attention to detail. They are seen as innocent, dedicated, and witty, but can also be overbearing, self-destructive, and preachy.
- There may be serious challenges in your daily routine this week. Take time to set a plan into motion to not throw yourself too off balance. Write it down. You may want to drift into another realm, so let those emotions roam free – just make sure you deal with your daily tasks first. This will give you more freedom to take advantage of the blast of creative power that you have and use it in a productive manner.
Libra: Libras are kind, gentle, and lovers of beauty, harmony, and peace. However, in their effort to keep everyone happy, they find it difficult to say ‘no’ to anyone, and as a result, they end up getting stressed.
- You may feel idealistic this week. This is fine, but make sure these ideas are rooted in reality or they may be nothing more than a pipe dream. Feel free to escape to another mindset, but make sure you can still discern what’s real and what isn’t. This is a telling time for you in which you realize that the conventional ways of doing things aren’t working anymore. Spread the word to others and learn how to make yourself a better person with these new ideas.
Scorpio: Scorpios are seen as serious, known to keep their emotions hidden, are very intuitive, mysterious, and intense. They are known to have brilliant minds and be very controlling of the people and situations around them.
- Your dreams and fantasies are more real than you know. Smile at the people you pass and watch them smile back. Your sensitive and fun-loving nature is infectious. Use it to help heal others’ wounds and allow them to see the reality in their fantasies. A heartfelt smile the remedy that cures all. Be conscious of your tremendous effect on others and spread the beauty that lives inside you.
Sagittarius: Sagittariuses are seen as being curious and energetic. They are one of the biggest travelers among all zodiac signs. Their open mind and philosophical views motivate them to wander around the world in search of the meaning of life.
- You will experience an intense amount of energy this week. Your dream state will be more active than usual, and you will find that people are drawn to you and your heightened emotional state. Make sure you keep your fiery emotions in balance and don’t cross any boundaries with others. People have limits, and it’s important that you honor theirs as well as your own.
Capricorn: Capricorns are all about hard work. They are very ambitious, determined, conservative, helpful, and practical. They are good team leaders, are known to have a single-minded focus, but can also be resentful and suspicious of others.
- It’s time to get up and get moving. You have tremendous ideas and vision for the future. You have all the information you need. Now all you have to do is act. Get up off the couch and tell everyone around you all of your great ideas. Getting out of your box and further into the world at large will do you a great deal of good. Get a greater perspective on things and enjoy time in a new environment.
Aquarius: Aquarians are shy and quiet, but on the other hand they can be eccentric and energetic. However, in both cases, they are deep thinkers and highly intellectual people who love helping others. They can see without prejudice on both sides, which makes them people who can easily solve problems.
- Spiritual concerns and daydreams move into sharp focus this week. Perhaps you’re pulled by playful emotions and distractions. Keep one foot on the ground while you send your mind into the clouds, but definitely take time to check the air up there and report your findings. You may feel a greater sensitivity toward others now while your intuition is strong. Don’t let your emotions keep you from exploring and learning.
Pisces: Pisces are very friendly, so they often find themselves in a company of very different people. They are selfless, and always willing to help others without hoping to get anything back. They are characterized by empathy and expressed emotional capacity.
- This week’s energies will get progressively more intense as the week goes on. In the beginning, you may be in an easygoing, dreamy state, but you will be itching to take action by the end. Take what you’ve learned from your sensitive, meditative state and share it with others. Use your inner calm to bring stability to stressful situations. Make sure things don’t get out of hand.
