January 14 – January 28

As Souls, we are here to live out the calling that brought us here—and with that calling comes the responsibility to meet it fully. This New Moon in Capricorn on Sunday, Jan. 18 at 11:51 a.m. Pacific places career, commitment, and your public direction front and center. With a Capricorn stellium overhead, you are standing at a moment of reckoning around where you are headed—and where you are ready to step up in service to your Soul’s journey.

Mercury in Capricorn forms a new-phase conjunction to Mars, your ruling planet, sharpening focus and clarifying next steps. This is a moment to think strategically, speak with intention, and act with determination. Decisions made now carry weight and momentum.

Venus is balsamic to Pluto in Aquarius, signaling the completion of an old relational or social cycle. This is a wrapping-up phase—clearing space so new pathways, alliances, and connections can emerge. The terrain ahead may feel unfamiliar, but it is quietly life-changing. Notably, Venus moves in front of Pluto the following night, marking the true beginning of a new chapter in how you relate, collaborate, and envision your future.

The New Moon also forms a supportive sextile to Saturn and Neptune in Pisces, helping to anchor a dream into reality. This alignment shores up your footing, softens uncertainty, and offers an extra surge of confidence—especially when you trust both your instincts and your faith in the larger process.

Mars enters Aquarius on Friday, Jan. 23, and crosses in front of Pluto on Wednesday, Jan. 28—a clear symbol of an evolutionary transition ahead. This is the activation point. What has been dissolving beneath the surface now begins to move. Collective currents quicken, and individual choices gain traction within a much larger landscape of change.

Adding to this shift, Neptune enters Aries on Monday, Jan. 26, inaugurating a new 165-year spiritual cycle. After years of release and surrender, imagine the ocean washing all that no longer belongs from your skin. As the tide recedes, the call turns toward initiation. Your vision now demands follow-through. This is the ignition of a new dream—one that is ready to be lived, not merely imagined.

Together, these transits signal a powerful reorientation: consciousness is moving from preparation into motion, from inner knowing into courage on full display.

You don’t need to rush.
You need to move with intention.
The path is opening.

Personal Message from Kristin

If the energy within my words feels different — more urgent, more direct, more on fire — it is because I am in the midst of completing a long-awaited project on the female warrior, the Amazon. In these pages I trace her fierce energy as she moves through every sign of the zodiac, revealing how she lives and breathes in each of us, with an intention to awaken the wild feminine within you. The aim is for you to harness the courage necessary to fearlessly go after what you came here to be and do. This work has been years in the making, and I look forward to sharing it with you in 2026.
