January 13 is geared for being an intensely jam-packed day. It all begins with a strange, yet enchanting moment as Mars retrograde forms a trine with Neptune in Pisces, bringing a sensitive and dreamlike energy into the mix. However, it could also stir up delusions, especially when it comes to your internal perceptions. The Capricorn sun will also form a trine with unpredictable Uranus, which could stir up ambitious ideas that challenge the status quo, especially when it comes to your identity and long-term plans. And at 5:26 p.m. ET, a full Wolf Moon in Cancer will shake up your emotions as it expands the impact of Mars retrograde. It’s giving: “I’m so angry, I could cry.”

By January 14, Venus in Pisces will square off with Jupiter in Gemini, bringing a moment of passion and friction into fruition. Pay attention to what happens around this time, as you may harken back to this moment when Venus retrograde in Pisces takes place in late March and early April. A big, overarching love story is being written right now, so pay attention to the rising action, the climaxes, and the crescendos.

Conflict could arrive on January 15, when the Capricorn sun forms a direct opposition with Mars retrograde in Cancer. This could activate allies, enemies, and partners who both trigger you and heal you. By January 17, you may be able to process what you’ve learned as the sun forms a sextile with forgiving and open-hearted Neptune.

Themes in your current relationships could suddenly get even more serious by January 18, when love planet Venus joins force with restrictive and committed Saturn. While you may feel lonelier and more distant from others, you could also feel ready to put a label on a relationship or discuss where it’s headed for the long-term.
