Some things may not turn out the way you planned this week, but who’s to say they won’t be even better? In the meantime, some wisdom from your fellow star signs to walk you through new year. Here’s your weekly horoscope January 1-7, 2024.
Capricorn, Dec 22 – Jan 20
“Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity. We must develop and maintain the capacity to forgive. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear.” Capricorn civil rights activist, Martin Luther King Jnr.
Aquarius, Jan 21 – Feb 19
“Our soul, our true self, is the most mysterious, essential and magical dimension of our being. In fact, it is not a separate reality, but the cohesive force that unites our body, heart and mind. Dancing, singing, storytelling and silence are the four universal healing salves.” Aquarian dancer Gabrielle Roth.
Pisces, Feb 20 – Mar 20
“If we each took seriously the fact that every act, every word we utter, every injury we do another human being is projected into larger issues… then each of us, like a small cell, would do the work of creating a human self who wouldn’t have ghettos, that wouldn’t go to war.” Pisces writer Anais Nin.
Aries, Mar 21 – Apr 21
“Technology is not going to save us. Our computers, our tools, our machines are not enough. We have to rely on our intuition, our true being. One way or another, we all have to find what best fosters the flowering of our humanity in this contemporary life.” Aries mythologist Joseph Campbell.
Taurus, Apr 22 – May 21
“We all have the extraordinary coded within us, waiting to be released. You are not a passive observer in the cosmos. The entire universe is expressing itself through you at this very moment. My prayer is, let me be a blessing to someone or something today.” Taurus author Jean Houston.
Gemini, May 22 – Jun 22
“God help us to change. To change ourselves and to change our world. To know the need for it. To deal with the pain of it. To feel the joy of it. To undertake the journey without understanding the destination. The art of gentle revolution.” Gemini cultural commentator Michael Leunig.
Cancer, Jun 23 – Jul 23
“Guard well within yourself that treasure, kindness. Know how to give without hesitation, how to lose without regret, how to acquire without meanness. And let us accept truth, even when it surprises us and alters our views.” Cancerian novelist Amantine Lucile Aurore Dupin, writing as George Sand.
Leo, Jul 24 – Aug 23
“The Four Agreements: 1) Be Impeccable With Your Word. Use your words for truth and love. 2) Don’t Take Anything Personally. Nothing others do is because of you. It’s a projection of their own reality. 3) Don’t Make Assumptions. Ask questions. 4) Always Do Your Best.” Leo author Don Miguel Ruiz.
Virgo, Aug 24 – Sep 23
“Pay attention. Be astonished… The past is the past, and the present is what your life is, and you are capable of choosing what that will be, darling citizen. It is a serious thing just to be alive on this fresh morning in this broken world.” Virgo poet Mary Oliver.
Libra, Sep 24 – Oct 23
“Be a part of all that is decent and be an ambassador for the kind of world that you want to live in. Leave every place you go, everything you touch, a little better for your having been there. When adversity hits, go out and learn something.” Libran actress Julie Andrews.
Scorpio, Oct 24 – Nov 22
“I’m struck by how laughter connects you with people. It’s almost impossible to maintain any kind of distance or any sense of social hierarchy when you’re howling with laughter. Laughter is a force for democracy. It just destroys any kind of system dividing people.” Scorpio comedian John Cleese.
Sagittarius, Nov 23 – Dec 21
“Let us believe in a long year that is given to us, new, untouched, full of things that have never been, full of work that has never been done, full of tasks, claims, and demands. Perhaps everything terrible is, in its deepest essence, something that needs our love.” Sagittarian poet Rainer Maria Rilke.
