1/7 Horoscopes from Beliefnet

The Moon in Cancer is full at 10:39 am EST. It is a turning point in our emotional cycle. Folk lore is rich with stories about werewolves and people going crazy during the Full Moon. The truth is that our subconscious minds overflow their boundaries, like the sea at high tide. Our dreams are more vivid. We wake up, but our dreams stick with us throughout the day. Today's Full Moon reflects the tension between the circumstances of our lives and our unfulfilled emotional needs. Our feelings bump up against commitments and responsibilities.

ARIES (March 20–April 19):

This Full Moon puts stress on your life from the perspective of your career. What is your real place in the outer world? What do you want to do with your life? And how much should you sacrifice comfort and emotional safety to achieve your outer world goals? Asking these questions now can propel you into action. Others may see you as acting forcefully, but you're only trying to do what makes sense.

TAURUS (April 20–May 20): I

f your own insecurities have been worrying you about your abilities as a communicator, now may be the time to push through these self-made limitations. It's really not about what others might be saying (or not saying). It's what you feel about yourself. If you are starting off from a place of low self-esteem, then nothing on the outside will make you feel any better. This is about the inner work you now must do in order to feel fulfilled.

GEMINI (May 21–June 20):

Sometimes you get going so fast that you can't even tell yourself which way you are going. Or coming. Or both. Don't wait for something circumstantial to slow you down. Do it yourself. Now. Sure, you have lots of great ideas, but you will ruin your chances of realizing any of your goals if you scatter your energy too much. Pick what is most important. Let other activities fall to the wayside. Don't rush ahead until you are ready. Then, move seriously with determination.

CANCER (June 21–July 22):

The cosmos are playing your song, for this Full Moon is in your sign. You want to be understood. You want to feel safe. But you might not have all that you really need at this time. Consider that your needs may be based upon feelings of insecurity--and that no one will be able to make you feel secure if you desperately fear rejection or change. You're not going to solve this one overnight, but if you seriously think about it, you might feel better about what's happening in your life.

LEO (July 23–August 22):

You are supposed to hold up your end of the deal but you are torn. You've realized that there are things you could to that would be of service to others, but you are already busy just trying to do what you are already committed to. You know that you can't do everything, yet your high ideals are making it difficult for you to let go. Just do your best at what you choose to do.

VIRGO (August 23–September 22):

You are pulled between your responsibilities and own feelings. You intend to take care of your immediate needs in a very practical way until you realize that you could hurt someone in the process. If you are expected to act one way but actually respond differently, what kind of message does this give? Do you really want others to know what you are feeling? Just remember, now as always, actions really do speak louder than words.

LIBRA (September 23–October 22):

It may feel like there's no easy way out of this dilemma. It's hard to know what to do, even if you've been here before. This may not feel like new ground, but something has changed. It's you. Things really are different. You might not be willing to put up with the same level of stress that you've been holding recently. If this means that you need to express your anger, so be it. Just remember to be kind, even if you are engaged in conflict with someone.

SCORPIO (October 23–November 22):

Your feelings are becoming clearer now and you can see what you haven't been able to see. The conflict that's been brewing isn't only within your imagination. You have found someone in your life to play out the role of antagonist and now you feel like you must engage this energy. If you do find yourself embroiled in a conflict with someone else, try to move beyond petty ego battles. Fighting will not bring you peace of mind. Instead, take the egos out of the picture and look at this from a more philosophical perspective. If you can find meaning in what's happening, then everyone can emerge as victors.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22–December 21):

You aren't running away from your feelings as fast as you sometimes do. Sure, you'd still rather work this off through more pleasurable means, but the intensity of your feelings will not easily be dispersed. You are taking yourself quite seriously now, and you expect others to do the same. Although your hopes are building for what's just around the corner, you still need to hold back your horses or they will run away from what is most important.

CAPRICORN (December 22–January 19):

Your sense of reality is being tested now as emotions--yours or someone else's--confront you with one of your most basic fears. You are scared of being pulled off the established path and into unknown emotional territory. You've seen others lose their sense of reality as feelings get so stirred up that they are not easily settled back down. More than anything, you don't want to fall victim to this kind of irrationality. But you also understand that without feelings, life can become dry and cold.

AQUARIUS (January 20–February 18):

You might not be as sure of yourself as you are at other times, but this is just a passing phase. The Full Moon today might fill you with feelings of insecurity. Work issues are emphasized, but you are inclined not to hold your emotions to yourself. Others may notice that you are more withdrawn than usual, but they don't know why. Even if they inquire, you may not feel like telling them. Actually, holding your feelings in today could be a good idea. It will feel more natural to express them in a day or two.

PISCES (February 19–March 19):

This watery Full Moon feels good in your world, even if it is somewhat overwhelming. For a while, you could even feel like you are drowning in an uncontrollable swirl of complex emotions. But you've been here before and you need to remember that you are totally safe. These are your own feelings that you are seeing around you and the sooner you recognize them, the sooner you'll be able to feel comfortable again in your own emotional home.
