On The Energies…

We start the week off with a Mars Retrograde entering Cancer.  By next month, Mars will go direct on February 23rd in Cancer.  Mars then continues its transit through the sign of the Crab, in direct motion, until April 18th.  Mars is the Planet of action, vitality, and motivation.  Cancer is always an emotionally protective sign.  During Mars Retrograde in Cancer you begin a phase in which you pause and learn a significant life lesson you may have glossed over in the past.  Mars Retrograde can keep your energy low urging you to tread carefully.  Instead of rushing forward, this month calls you to pause and to tap into what you truly want moving forward.  This period is great for getting more emotional clarity.  Expect 2025 to bring profound spiritual awakenings, and heightened spiritual awareness.  Mars Retrograde is a time of reflect on what you truly desire.  Cancers have a cozy reputation, but they also have pinchers and hard crab shells.  This sign will force you to dig deep and to address your emotions.  Saturday brings us the 1:11 Portal.  This is a big day as important shifts will unfold.  The North Node of Destiny enters Pisces and the South Node of Karma enters Virgo.  This shift will bring your focus towards more balance between the spiritual and the physical dimensions.  Expect major energies that are all about spiritual awakening that will affect all of us.  This will set the tone for the entire year.  Pisces themes greatly influence 2025, guiding us towards spiritual healing, creativity and surrender.  We also have Virgo’s grounding influence.  Both will stay on the Pisces/Virgo axis until mid-2026.  The North Node in Pisces will open your third eye.  This is great for seeing more of your future.  These energies are all about strengthening your relationship with your Higher Self and bringing your dreams and manifestations into the physical reality.  January 2025 is also a time to forge deep soul connections.  Venus is in Pisces until February 4th.  She is exalted and at her best in the dreamy waters of Pisces.  This is great for your love life, expect extra romantic vibes.  Expect your energy to be sparkling, and to naturally draw others in with your charms.
