The Year of The Water Rabbit: Astrology Forecast January 15th – 22nd, 2023
What to expect this week?
By Lorna Bevan | Guest Writer
New Year 2023 finally starts here at the seismic Super New Moon at 1 Aquarius on January 21st. It is a foretaste of the Aquarian Agenda Years 2023 – 2043 which begin when Pluto enters Aquarius on March 23rd, re-activating the degree of this Super Moon.
In Chinese Astrology, it marks the Year of the Water Rabbit. The Yin Water element represents sensitivity, intuition and the way of inner peace after the dynamic and extremely harsh Year of the Yang Tiger in 2022.
Super New Moons are New Moons on steroids and have the same storm and seismic potential as their more visible Full Moon counterparts that are always reported by the media. The January 21 Stealth Super Moon will anchor a January 18-24 shock window when extreme tides, strong storms and seismic activity are likely. It is in a wide conjunction with Pluto square the karmic Nodes of Fate across Taurus/Scorpio- choices made now will have long term consequences.
Uranus turns direct at 14 degrees Taurus on January 22, shaking up global markets and personal finances – cryptocurrencies are going to be centre stage as old debts are called in.
Attune to the incoming Aquarian frequency by:
- being ready to renew the architecture of your life in coming weeks and months
- recognising the value of your friendships and social networks
- looking for win/win scenarios via collaborative ventures
- giving your emotional dramas and soap operas a break

A Woman Strolling In a Garden. She Is Unaware That She Is Being Watched By Elves
“We adopt a split-screen mind when the outward frame of things seems so insistent that we must be reasonable and logical and make complete sense in a quantitative, functional way. But what happens is that the other side of our awareness, the outlawed side, gets very strong in the subconscious and stays alive. We can almost play off of it in emphasising our sceptical or worldly approach to things. But there is a joke to it. For you are aware of what you are not aware of — you are tuned into the very things you deny. This kind of edge hones the mind and the soul. It teaches invaluable lessons, not the least of which is to make way for the unknown while hugging the known close to you, knowing all the whole how profoundly the unknown beckons.” – Inside Degrees Elias Lonsdale
Aries Weekly Forecast: January 15-22, 2023
The tide and the tempo are changing quickly this week with a seismic Super Moon in Aquarius, along with Mercury and unpredictable Uranus changing direction. As the Messenger moves forward, there could be news about your career. Decisions that have been on the back burner are now firming up, so make sure you get your act together. With Venus plus the Super New Moon in your 11th House, teams, groups and networks are going to play a much more important role in your life this year. For the last two years, Saturn here has put a block on social events. As he moves on from early March, transformer Pluto moves in and your alliances and allegiances start to update themselves.
A changing of the guard.
Taurus Weekly Forecast: January 15-22, 2023
This year, your career is going to move to a whole new level of influence and responsibility as transformer Pluto activates the pinnacle of your chart in Aquarius for the first time in your life.

The next day, Awakener Uranus-ruler of Aquarius-turns forward in Taurus after months of go-slow, sparking sudden insights and light bulb moments about radical possibilities you may never have thought of before. Now that both Mars and Mercury are also moving ahead, your income stream will start to flow more smoothly.
Be alert for offers and opportunities.

Scorpio Weekly Forecast: January 15-22, 2023
New Year 2023 really only begins at the Super New Moon on January 21st, coinciding with the Chinese New Year of the Water Rabbit, which promises gentler Yin energy than 2022’s fierce Yang Tiger aggression. This is a New Moon on steroids, nudging you to make a clean sweep at home, de-cluttering on the physical level and to make plans for a new place to live. This urge will become much more insistent when transformer Pluto enters this part of your chart on March 23rd, bringing quite radical change. Something in your family life is ending. On January 22nd, Uranus turns forward in your opposite sign, disrupting partnerships-either personal or professional. Be ready for surprising news needing a quick response.
Trust your superb gut instincts more than ever.

Clear debt, start saving and work on adding new income streams. The Super New Moon on January 22nd in far sighted Aquarius starts you thinking about your future, how you want life to be different, more innovative and exciting. If you’ve been dreaming large over recent months, now’s the time to risk putting your ideas out there-trademarked of course-to ask for feedback from people you trust and start turning them into reality.
Start thinking of yourself as an entrepreneur, no matter what your current job or role.

On January 18th, Mercury turns forward in Capricorn ahead of a stunning Super New Moon in Aquarius on the 21st. It’s time to do a clean sweep of your finances, clearing debt and coming up with some practical new income streams. Audit your resources-include time, money, life experience, skills and talents-and find multiple ways to add value to others from what you know. It’s not going to be all work and no play as Uranus wakes up your angle of fun, creativity and life’s pleasures on January 22nd.
Do more of what you love.

On January 22nd, a stunning Super New Moon lights up the 1st degree of your sign-an unmistakeable planetary message in flashing neon lights of better things to come. There’s more! Hours later on the 22nd, your own planet revolutionary Uranus wakes up from a long slumber on a key angle of your chart. Anticipate surprising news at home connected with your close family and tribe. Ring the changes where you live, perhaps set up a workshop to turn all those creative ideas you’re incubating into reality.
Happy New Year!
Pisces Weekly Forecast: January 15-22, 2023
