FEATURE — This week begins with an abundance of fortuitous energy, as multiple planets meet harmoniously in the sky.

And with this collection of cosmic energy in the Earth signs of Capricorn and Taurus, this is about materializing dreams through taking a grounded, practical approach.

Last week ended with Uranus, the planet of rebellion and unpredictable change, turning direct in Taurus after spending the last four months in retrograde. Now, it makes several harmonious connections that signify grand new opportunities for those willing to try something different.

On Sunday, Jan. 28, Mercury in Capricorn will form a harmonious trine with Uranus at 2:06 p.m. MDT. This signifies brilliant thinking and flash realizations, which could lead to new opportunities. Intuition is on high, and it’s a good time to follow instinct and out-of-the-box thinking.

Also on Sunday, Venus in Capricorn forms a trine with Jupiter in Taurus at 6:01 p.m. MDT. This is one of the most anticipated aspects, as it charges romance and could offer a stroke of luck for those looking for love. This influence also helps those in established bonds patch up what needs to be mended. It’s a good day to engage in carefree, relaxing activities with the people you love most.

On Monday, Jan. 29, Mars in Capricorn trines Uranus at 4:40 p.m. MDT. It may feel harder than normal to stick with the status quo on this day, as this cosmic connection ignites a desire for freedom and excitement. Taking risks in terms of self-expression, romance or innovative ideas or projects is likely to go well.

So what does all of this mean for you? Find out below.

Aries
March 21-April 19

With your ruling planet Mars meeting Uranus in the sky early this week, you could be feeling the need to take risks in your career or that could ultimately benefit your income, dear Aries.

With your ruling planet Venus meeting Jupiter in the sky this week, love is on your mind, dear Taurus. But you don’t want just any type of love, you want the type of love that takes you on an adventure. A fire is lit inside you, pushing you to be more spontaneous than usual. And it’s this spontaneity that allows you to see new horizons to understand both yourself and the world in a new way.

Gemini
May 21–June 20

Matters related to intimacy, shared resources and power are positively aspected now, as your ruling planet Mercury meets Uranus in the sky, dear Gemini. You could have a sudden realization now that unlocks a psychological trapdoor that has been limiting your ability to transform in some way. Pay careful attention to your dreams, and the messages that may present themselves. Power struggles could come to pass under this influence. You may become aware of a secret admirer.

Cancer

With a collection of cosmic energy now in your opposite sign, this week signifies a powerful time for relationships, dear Cancer. With both your seventh house of partnerships and your 11th house of friendships activated, you’re likely to feel the warmth of connection. Bonds have the potential to deepen. For some, a friend could become something more, or you could establish a better friendship with your partner. Whatever the case, it’s time to be with the ones who light you up.

Leo
July 23–August 22

This week’s planetary connections are putting a spotlight on matters of work, health, career and reputation, dear Leo. You may see a breakthrough this week that allows a better flow in your daily life. This could be related to a health issue, such as a habit or illness, or the way you manage your time. You’re feeling motivated to put in the work to take giant leaps toward far-reaching goals. Some could receive recognition now for past efforts.

With your ruling planet meeting harmoniously with Uranus early this week, this is a time when inspiration may suddenly strike, dear Virgo. Creative self-expression, romance and matters of the heart are positively aspected and could see you taking a leap to share your creations with a wider audience. A willingness to be spontaneous and follow your instinct could lead to marvelous discoveries. Romance is on high, and this influence favors activities with a special someone that bring out your inner child.

Libra
Sept. 23–Oct. 22

With your ruler Venus connecting with Jupiter this week, you are likely to feel the love of home, dear Libra. Whether this is the actual structure in which you live, or the home you’ve created inside yourself, this connection empowers you with a feeling of stability. A feeling of nostalgia is likely and could see you rummaging through old photos or notes to indulge in the reminiscence of the days now gone. A boost to passive incomes or a surpise inheritance could be in store for some.

This could be a week when a conversation feels nearly life-altering, dear Scorpio, as the cosmic energy lights up your houses of communication and partnerships. You’ve likely experienced shifts in the ways you relate to others in recent years, as Uranus has been transiting your seventh house or partnerships. With its harmonious connection to several planets in your natal third house, opportunities abound to breathe new life into the way you think about those in your life. This also could indicate a fortuitous connection with someone in the realm of business or transportation.

Sagittarius
Nov. 22–Dec. 21

2/6 With your ruling planet Jupiter caught up in a positive trine with Venus, this is a week to focus on the present moment, dear Sagittarius. While you are known to whisk away in adventures — both physically and mentally — this week’s energy aims to ground you and remind you of the joy in earthly pleasures. Work or health issues can see sudden resolutions this week, and you will likely feel in the flow.

Capricorn
Dec. 22–Jan. 19

With a collection of energy now in your sign, your first house of identity and physical vitality is at the forefront now, dear Capricorn. You’re thinking about the way the world sees you and how that aligns with who you know yourself to be at the deepest core. If you’ve been feeling in a creative rut, you could see breakthroughs now by following your passion and allowing yourself to enjoy the art of experiment, rather than focusing on the outcome. This is also a great week for romance. Surprise news could come that relates to children or a creative project.

Aquarius
Jan. 20–Feb. 18

While the sun continues to shine on you, a collection of planets is now in your 12th house of the subconscious and imagination, dear Aquarius, which could have you feeling a desire to withdraw or escape. Your dreams and intuition are heightened now, so pay attention to what shows up. The favorable aspects indicate a significant potential for psychological clearing and renewal, especially in terms of the past and your family. By allowing emotions to surface, you have the chance to recognize and heal subconscious patterns that no longer serve you.

Pisces
Feb. 19 – March 20
