Another 14-transit week as we shift from Capricorn season into Aquarius season. The Sun, Mercury, and Mars all enter Aquarius, joining Venus and Pluto to create a five-planet alignment in Aquarius — something we haven't seen since February 1791.

Monday, January 19th is the epicenter, with six exact transits including the Saturn-Uranus sextile that's been building since late December. This week asks us to take one final look at the guilt, shame, regret, and blame that Saturn and Neptune in Pisces have been excavating — and meet it with compassion before these planets leave Pisces for good.

We explore what it means to be an authority who distributes knowledge rather than hoards it, and how to stand out as an individual while still contributing to the group. Plus, a self-driving car on train tracks offers an unexpected lens on Mercury conjunct Pluto.
