Sun in Capricorn until Jan. 20 & Venus in Sagittarius from Jan. 7 until Feb. 3

The Sun represents our vitality, our conscious will, and our untapped potential. In Capricorn, the Sun takes what has been envisioned and finds a way to make it happen -- to make the commitment, devise the plan, do the work, gain success, and receive the recognition. While the Sun is in Capricorn, we are reminded that each of us have a purpose in life. There are goals we work toward. Capricorns are doers. They set out to accomplish things and are determined to succeed one way or another. By nature they are executives and managers. Ambitious, pragmatic, and goal-oriented, they learn how to get things done. This is a good time to find a way to get things done!

Venus represents more than love and relationships. She also governs our material, personal, and aesthetic values. In the sign of the archer, Venus is grand. Her gestures are generous and optimism boundless. Our spirituality and capacity for personal growth are highlighted. Meeting and learning from others of a different culture from our own is also a theme of Venus in Sagittarius. During this time your love of life, freedom of spirit, and sense of adventure will be felt strongly. Your relationships will be a key component of your desire to broaden your scope and widen your realm of experiences, understanding ever more about the world in which you live.
