New Moon in Capricorn is "get down to business" energy but what do you do when Mercury retrograde occurs during the first days of the New Year? First determine which of your goals are brand-new and which are ongoing. Ongoing projects may be delayed by Mercury retrograde but proceed anyway using the Capricorn skill of organized problem solving to further your most important ventures in progress. According to astrology, new starts should wait till Mercury goes direct. The beginning of any enterprise has its own horoscope. Most projects will not profit from having Mercury retrograde in the chart because Mercury rules communications and transport and written documents such as contracts. One last Mercury retro tip: if you must make a major purchase while Mercury is retrograde, be sure to save the receipt. The retrograde symbolizes a trip to the store to make a return. JANUARY 18, 2003 - FULL MOON - 27 CANCER 55 - 4:47 AM CST Full Moon in Cancer enhances our intuition and increases our nesting instinct. It's a great time to create a home environment complementary to your own personality and inner needs or to apply some feng shui principles. Connect with family, and honor mothers and grandmothers in your own way. JANUARY 23, 2003 - MERCURY DIRECT - 12 CAP 19 - 7:08 PM CST As Mercury goes direct
conjunct the asteroid Chiron and inconjunct Jupiter, it's a good time to
"pay it forward," helping others with positive philosophy or practical
information that has helped you in the past. Because Mercury is at
a station point (stopped in its orbit as viewed from earth), wait a couple
more days before starting your new projects and things will proceed more
easily.

Even though the primary focus of information
in your horoscope is about
Moon: women, mother, babies, nurses, cooks and bakers Sun: men, father, kings and leaders, jewelers and goldsmiths, stock brokers Mercury: teachers, administrative assistants, mail carriers, writers and journalists, bus drivers Venus: women, daughters, artists and musicians, beauticians, clothing designers Mars: men, sons, policemen, soldiers, surgeons, metal workers, engineers Jupiter: Lawyers, physicians, congressmen, philanthropists, professors Saturn: Elders, masons and bricklayers, miners, farmers, real estate and land-owners, plumbers Uranus: Computer engineers and programmers, inventors, psychologists, astrologers, mechanics Neptune: Spiritual teachers, psychics,
visionaries, chemists, actors
How do you interpret your relationships via the planets. Look for the sign the planet is in and its aspect to other planets. For example, if Oprah Winfrey* had asked her astrologer about her relationship with lawyers when she was being sued by the Texas cattlemen in 1998, the astrologer would look at her natal Jupiter trined (harmonious) to natal Venus, Sun and Mercury and assure her that she would likely hire the best qualified lawyers to win her case. Oprah did win and, as an added bonus, Oprah met Dr. Phil McGraw, a legal advisor for the case, who became a popular guest on her show. Another example: a recent client, who had transiting Saturn (elders) conjunct her natal Moon (mother), had just invited her aging mother to move in with her. Think about the planets in your chart and see if they accurately describe the people in your life. Don't forget - planetary patterns are karma but not fate. You create your future, and the self-knowledge from astrology can help you design a plan to adjust your attitudes and behaviors and therefore transform your relationships. * Oprah Winfrey: 01/29/1954, 4:30 AM CST,
