Astrological calendar

January 2018

Every New and Full Moon, every eclipse with its Saros family, every retrograde and every sign change — in Brasília time, computed with precision ephemerides validated against NASA’s catalogue.

  1. 2 Tuesday

    Full Moon in Cancer

    12:24 AM · Brasília time

    Sun and Moon on opposite sides of the sky: maximum light on what had been growing. What was implicit becomes visible — in feeling, in outcome, in conversation.

    Uranus stations direct in Aries

    12:31 PM · Brasília time

    The planet stations and returns to direct motion: what was under review starts moving again, now with what was learned along the way.

  2. 8 Monday

    Last Quarter in Libra

    08:25 PM · Brasília time

    The light wanes: time to harvest what served and release what did not. A conscious closing before the next cycle.

  3. 11 Thursday

    Mercury enters Capricorn

    03:09 AM · Brasília time

    A planet changes sign: the same function starts operating in another style. The theme does not change — the manner does.

  4. 17 Wednesday

    New Moon in Capricorn

    12:17 AM · Brasília time

    Sun and Moon meet at the same degree: one cycle closes and another begins in the dark. The classic moment to plant intention — not to harvest results.

    Venus enters Aquarius

    11:43 PM · Brasília time

    A planet changes sign: the same function starts operating in another style. The theme does not change — the manner does.

  5. 20 Saturday

    Sun enters Aquarius

    01:09 AM · Brasília time

    A planet changes sign: the same function starts operating in another style. The theme does not change — the manner does.

  6. 24 Wednesday

    First Quarter in Taurus

    08:20 PM · Brasília time

    A week after the seed, the first tension: what was planted meets the real world. It is a course correction, not a surrender.

  7. 26 Friday

    Mars enters Sagittarius

    10:57 AM · Brasília time

    A planet changes sign: the same function starts operating in another style. The theme does not change — the manner does.

  8. 31 Wednesday

    Eclipse Lunar total in Leo

    11:29 AM · Brasília time

    A Full Moon intensified by the Earth’s shadow: culmination and emotional turning point. What was ripe shows up all at once.

    Saros 124 · previous in the series: January 2000

    Mercury enters Aquarius

    11:38 AM · Brasília time

    A planet changes sign: the same function starts operating in another style. The theme does not change — the manner does.

What this means for your chart

The calendar is the same for everyone; the effect is not. Each event lands in a different house of your chart — and that is what changes what it asks of you.
