Not only is photography art. Taking pictures allows us immortalise moments in time. It gives us the opportunity revisit experiences, people and memories.

On Tuesday 12^th January Mercury in Aquarius square Uranus in Taurus. Then the next day, 13^th January there is a new moon in Capricorn (Sun conjunct Moon in Capricorn) at 23˚13”which is an Aquarian degree. This full moon is also conjunct Pluto so there will be strong emotions concerning power struggles. I feel this will highlight the themes that have been coming up since the Saturn-Jupiter conjunction just before Christmas. This is a great day to be productive though, that’s the best way to utilize this energy especially since the week gets chaotic.

Astrologically speaking, this is a pretty chilled week. I say this because January is going to take us for a ride. I need you ALL to savor that before Mars moves through his very last degrees of Aries. Mars has been in Aries for SIX months because he went retrograde (backwards) in that sign. The last degrees are going to bring up the themes that have perpetually been coming up for the last 6 months, most likely the thing that’s been pissing you off yet somehow this thing is a deeply sensitive topic for you.  Saturn and Jupiter remain in their conjunction on the 29^th with just an orb of 1 degree, if you have been feeling sluggish and tired lately this will be passing as Jupiter moves ahead of Saturn this week and with the moon moving from Gemini into Cancer at 12:29 am which will feel a lot like being jumpstarted, but with emotions. The moon is building up to a full moon in Cancer on 30^th December.
