This is Astrology Coach. It's your planetary update for the week of January nine. Remember there's a personal tarot card reading for you at the end of every episode. So what do the planets have in store for you this week?
Let's find out. Did Saturday's full moon poke at your insecurities? La Luna picked in cancer and the crab likes to hide out in its hard, protective shell. It's super sensitive and prone to vulnerability. So if someone took a dig at you or you felt exposed in some way, I promise you're not alone. This full moon faced off with mercury retrograde, which is notoriously linked to slips of the
tongue and conversation misfires. But even if your emotional wounds are still fresh, stop to examine what was said before retreating into your shell. Now, why would you do that? Because a fully lit moon brings illuminated insights, which can turn insensitive remarks into an opportunity for self reflection and healing. The full moon wasn't the only big astronews over the weekend.
Ever heard of a kasimi. In astrology, it's one of the highest forms of luck and just so happens, we had one on Saturday night when Mercury and the sun made an auspicious alignment in Capricorn. When these two arrive at the exact same point in the zodiac, the sun powers up all things Mercury. This means that all types of communication, rational thinking, and negotiations get a huge solar boost. But there's a catch. This portal of favorable fortune only
lasts for six hours, so it's come and gone. But it could explain any good luck you had on Saturday night. Although it's no Kazimi. Sunday's full moon is a fantastic pick me up after the sensitivities of the cancer full moon. The Leo vibes kickstart your working week with pride, confidence, and self assuredness. If you need a little bit more love and support, there's no shame in asking for help. If you've had some raw emotional times during a cancer full moon, a big bear hug might do the trick.
By Wednesday, the moon moves into Virgo, Mercury's planetary ruler. With Mercury still in its backward spin, you might miss an important detail if you're just returning to work after the holidays, so make sure you're really paying attention to the fine print later this week, Hold your head up high like the coin you are, and stare down the week with confidence. No matter what happened on the weekend.
