General Daily Insight for January 9, 2021

There’s a balancing act in the stars above today. The emotional Moon bounds into free-wheeling Sagittarius, encouraging us to feel beyond our usual boundaries and barriers, while romantic Venus’ trine to assertive Mars welcomes us to wear our hearts on our sleeves. However, this expansive energy is countered by messenger Mercury coming into exact alignment with sober Saturn, bringing our thought processes right back down to earth. Turn over any unexamined stones; some very interesting ideas are waiting to be discovered.

Aries

March 21-April 19

Your social circle is in the spotlight today as a friend or a group of friends brings some issues your way. This could be an effort to weed out a gossiping snake or come to terms with some major shifts that have occurred among you. If everyone is on the same team, that’s great and you can continue on as you please, but if there are any turncoats on Team Aries, it’s time to show them the door.

Taurus

April 20-May 20

You tend to be one of the hardest working signs of the entire zodiac, and today that hard work might finally pay off. A VIP could take notice of all you’ve been doing and offer you a promotion or other opportunity that will highlight your innate ability and responsibility. If no one is paying much attention, then pick up the bullhorn yourself and start telling people what you’ve been up to; chances are, someone will hear your pitch and be more than a little interested.

Gemini

May 21-June 20

Don’t push yourself too hard today in any one direction in particular. You’re working with a shorter fuse than usual and your tongue might be a little bit sharper than other people would prefer. The best course of action is to take a step back and take ten seconds before you respond to anyone, or longer if need be. If you can have the day to yourself, then so much the better; your own mind will be more comforting right now.

Cancer

June 21-July 22

Money matters are rarely fun to deal with, especially when they aren’t simple, but the problem is that if you avoid them and let them fester, they tend to only get worse. Today, you need to roll up your sleeves and do some serious fact-checking, especially with regards to any credit cards or other financial dealings. If your credit score isn’t all you’d hope, start figuring out what you need to do to get it where you want it; make a plan and stick to it.

Leo

July 23-August 22

What offers are in front of you right now? It looks like the stars are getting ready to present you with a choice of options that will have implications for a long time to come. This sounds serious and in many ways it is, but that doesn’t mean it’s bad. This could turn out to be something very good, just remember to put on your thinking cap and assess it to the best of your ability before you make any final decisions.

Virgo

August 23-September 22

It might be time to have a serious conversation with a coworker or client who hasn’t been pulling their weight recently. If there is any sign known for doing their fair share, it would be yours, however, you often do more than your fair share to ensure that any final product with your name on it lives up to your high expectations. Unfortunately, not everyone is on your level. Today, it’s time to make sure they are.

Libra

September 23-October 22

It’s a wonderful thing to have a hobby or some kind of creative outlet where you can let yourself go and indulge in a few hours of artistic expression. But are those projects you spend so much time on just things to pass the time, or could they be something more? Re-examine your personal skills and interests today and ask yourself, “Can I do something important with this?” There’s a good chance that the answer is yes.

Scorpio

October 23-November 21

Reconnecting with friends and old loved ones will bring you a lot of joy today, so this would be the perfect time to take a step away from your personal ambitions and, instead, focus on the special people in your life. You probably saw plenty of them over the holidays, but if any slipped through the cracks, pick up the phone and reach out now that things have started to settle down. You’ll be very happy you did.

Sagittarius

November 22-December 21

This is a terrific day to focus on your finances — not only focus on them, but increase your net worth. Thanks to a harmonious alignment between Mars and Venus in your work and money sectors, you could work wonders when it comes to manifesting more financial opportunities. There’s nothing wrong with asking for what you want, so if it’s time you asked about a raise, consider this to be your green light from the universe to go ahead and do so.

Capricorn

December 22-January 19

Although your work ethic is undeniably impressive, it’s important to ensure that you get your money’s worth for all the work you do. You’re not one to let yourself be taken advantage of, but right now a superior or coworker might actually have been handing you more than your fair share. There’s nothing wrong with that if you’re being properly compensated, but if not, then it is time to step up your game.

Aquarius

January 20-February 18

You know yourself better than everyone else — that’s just a fact of life. But how often do you actually let other people get a glimpse of the person you are on the inside? Sometimes it is necessary to stand up for yourself and make your opinions heard, and it looks as though “sometime” is today. It’s time to be vocal about who you really are, and make sure that people take notice. Your feelings matter as much as everyone else’s.

Pisces

February 19-March 20

You might feel like you’re all over the place today, but you’ve always had a talent for going with the flow and now is the perfect time to make good use of it. Social obligations might come calling one minute, then work comes clamoring for your attention the next. As freeing as it may feel to just toss your work in the trash, check off any necessary boxes and then you can truly enjoy yourself the rest of the day.
