Ophiuchus 13 Astrology

01/31/2026

Moon in Cancer is home, the Moon is the ruler of Cancer and together they are feeling safe, comfortable, nurturing and caring, and that’s a place and feeling we all want to have in our lives.

In opposition to Moon is the Sun in Capricorn, in conjunction to Mars - that is in conjunction with Pluto, but also loosely conjunct with Venus who is in conjunction with Mercury.

A couple weeks back had the majority of these players were making their way from Sag., into Capricorn during the New Moon, yet the fast moves of the Moon left the players of the Sun behind and is now happily playing alone in Cancer; but the pull of the friends he’s left behind are still impacting the energies he carries.

The Stellium of four planets and the Sun are challenging the safety, comfort and nurturing home of the Moon now.

These big hitters are challenging us to enjoy our comforts, but to remember those comforts aren’t guaranteed – instead they are things we take with us when we step out of the comfort zone and get down to responsible communication about our desires and what we find valuable, while also taking responsible action and being radically responsible for what we transform IF we can find the courage and bravado to do so.

What intentions did you set a couple weeks ago? How have they helped you, or have you allowed them in?

The last New Moon was important – it set the tone, not only for this Moon, but for many to come. February will be no joke astrologically - - And having a solid foundation is imperative.

However, if you didn’t set intentions with the New Moon, now IS NOT the time to set new ones. Sit with the energies of the Full Moon, notice where the next couple of weeks take you and then on the Next New Moon be sure to take it all in, and set intentions that work with and for you, using all you can see in hindsight and with foresight for your future.

The square from Uranus Rx to Mercury might have the collective communications coming from what we value and hold dear, likely aimed towards our governments. We surely see this playing out in the US.

Chiron, the wounded healer, in Pisces, is also in a square to Jupiter Rx in Gemili, making the wounds of the World illuminated, thought about, and rolling off of tongues divided.

This Moon has us wanting to stay in the comfort zone, but the pull can’t be ignored, especially where Mars and Pluto are connected to the Sun – it can’t help but illuminate the wounds, which can pull us into acting from the wounded space.

This kind of action often brings unpleasant transformation. I mean, have you ever been snug in bed, sleeping like a dream, and then suddenly have to go take care of business? (Think cat’s fighting in the living room, or the dog puking on the carpet) – I don’t know about you, but I seldomly make it to whatever took me from my comfort into business in a good mood. This is now.

The North Node in Aquarius is asking us all, the collective, to be responsible, to allow the chaos and energetic wavelengths to be there but to know our boundaries.
The South Node in Leo in conjunction with the (Ic) is triggering our courage, or confidence and our ego’s need to be front and center.

Working in opposition to each other the Nodes are asking us to be responsible for our boundaries when our confidence is shaken, when our hair stands on end, and the roar of needing to be seen overrules the needs and safety of the collective inner child in us all.

Then there is Lilith in conjunction with Saturn and Neptune in Pisces. There isn’t a more authentic expression of authority and the mystical than this trio.

We are waking from the dream, still in that Theta wavelength, but realizing that without being bold, straightforward, with no filter, and no BS – our authority, our dreams, our Magic will never be allowed to find its true purpose. I mean how can the magic find the light if repression, hiding and being squashed under any authoritarian figure is allowed to continue?

When we are bold, when we refuse to dim our sparkle, the strait laced tend to feel uncomfortable, and when the strait laced want to do what’s “right” the sparkles ask why won’t you let me be?

What we are failing to see is that it takes both.

If we are only in our dreams, they never come to fruition.

If we are only in responsibility, we don’t have vision and whimsy……

It takes the push and pull of the Moon, and the Sun and all of the other components of our sky, our being, to create the whole.

Finding transformation, and ultimately Transcendence (Scorpio/Ophiuchus) takes us working through the entirety of our earthy perspectives to realize it’s all an illusion anyway.

What if we simply show up in Love.

What if we Love where we show up?

What if we allow Love to show up and Shine in all we are?

Those were my intentions from this past New Moon. Maybe you can adopt them too?

Goodness knows we could all use a little more love in every situation under the stars.

What Neptune looks like in Aries…. Oh wait, it’s not there? Why, because in the actual sky it’s still in Pieces.

It will move through the very large constellation of Pisces until 2040.

Then it will move into Aries.

PS - Saturn 🪐 is in Pisces too 😉

True Sidereal Weekly Forecast: January 19-25

This week brings some significant planetary movement worth paying attention to.
The Sun, Mercury, and Mars all shift from Sagittarius into Capricorn over the next few days, joining Venus and Pluto already stationed there. That's five planets in Capricorn by week's end. If you've been feeling the pull toward getting more serious, more structured, more intentional about something in your life, this is why.

Capricorn energy isn't flashy. It's the slow, steady building of something real. The commitment to showing up even when no one's watching. Whatever seeds you planted during the more expansive Sagittarius season, this is where you start laying actual foundations.

Jupiter remains retrograde in Gemini, giving us continued space for reflection and mental integration. Saturn, Neptune, and Chiron hold steady in Pisces, keeping that undercurrent of spiritual processing alive in the background.

The Moon moves from Capricorn through Aquarius and into Pisces, where we'll hit our First Quarter Moon on Sunday (January 25th) at 11:47 AM EST. First Quarter Moons are traditionally a checkpoint: a moment to assess whether your actions are matching your intentions. In Pisces, that question gets a little deeper. Are you building toward something that actually matters to you on a soul level?

One thing worth remembering: these positions reflect where the planets literally are in the sky right now. You can open Stellarium or step outside and verify it yourself. That's what sets True Sidereal apart from mainstream astrology, which still uses a star map from about 2,000 years ago.

Curious how these transits hit your personal chart? Watch the full weekly forecast breakdown on our website. Link in the comments below.

What's showing up for you this week? I'd love to hear what you're noticing.

I was just talking to a client about Lilith the other day, about this story exactly.
Interesting take on it.

What are your thoughts??

🍎 THE GARDEN OF MISOGYNY

The Genesis problem.

Genesis opens with a contradiction that is rarely discussed.

In one chapter, man and woman are created together, at the same time, from the same earth. Literally formed from the same soil.

In the very next chapter, the story changes.

Now man is created first. Woman is made second. She is fashioned from Adam’s rib to be his “helper”. Her name is Eve.

So who was the woman in the first chapter, before Eve?

And why does she disappear?

⸻

🖕🏼 LILITH

Later scribes gave the “first woman” a name.

Lilith.

It wasn’t chosen at random.

Lilith closely resembles Lilitu, one of the most feared entities in the ancient world. Originating in Mesopotamia, the Lilitu were described as foul night spirits. Untameable. Wild. Nightmares blamed for infant death and unexplained terror.

They represented a femininity that served no man and produced no heirs.

So why did the woman created equal to Adam receive this name?

Because she refused to submit.

She didn’t eat an apple.
There were no rivals.
There was no betrayal.

Her crime was simpler and more threatening.

She believed she was Adam’s equal because she was made from the same dust. Even sexually, she refused to always be beneath him. She wanted equality, not hierarchy.

For that, she was cast out.

The scribes linked her to Lilitu, rewrote her as a demon, and removed her from the story as she “walked into the desert”.

The lesson they were immortalising was clear:

If a woman demands equality, she is a monster that must be expelled.

Don’t believe it?

Then look at what they did next.

⸻

🐍 EVE

The story continues with Eve.

Unlike Lilith, Eve is not made from earth. She is made from Adam. From his rib. Designed to be the helper.

Hierarchy restored.

Until Eve shows independent thought.

She listens.
She questions.
She seeks knowledge.

When the serpent suggests she eat the fruit to gain understanding, Eve does exactly that.

How did men write this moment?

As courage?
As intelligence?
As the birth of human awareness?

No.

They called it Original Sin.

Eve becomes the reason humans understand shame, fear, regret, pain, and suffering. Knowledge itself is framed as the curse.

The lesson is unmistakable.

The lesson of Lilith:
Women who demand equality are demons.

The lesson of Eve:
Women who seek knowledge bring suffering to the world.

⸻

🏺 PANDORA

And the idea wasn’t even original.

Greek mythology tells the same story centuries earlier.

Pandora, the first woman, is given a box by Zeus and told never to open it. She is curious. She opens it.

Out pours pain, disease, and suffering into the world.

Different culture. Same script.

A woman disobeys divine instruction.
Humanity pays the price.

⸻

🔥 WITCHES

Fast forward.

Only five hundred years ago, this mythology stopped being symbolic and became law.

Strong, independent women.
Self-sufficient women.
Women who healed, spoke, or lived alone.

Witches.

Burned alive.

⸻

Joan of Arc is one of the most famous examples of how feminine strength was reframed as evil and punished accordingly. She was burned alive for Heresy - HER esy

⸻

TODAY

The fire is gone.

The backlash remains.

Modern women still fight for equality and still face ridicule, abuse, and double standards. Leadership is labelled aggression. Autonomy is treated as arrogance. Sexual history is weighed like evidence.

These reactions aren’t accidental.

They are the inheritance of stories written in fear.

The monster was never Lilith.
Never Eve.
Never Pandora.

They were the original heroes.

The monsters are those who continue to control others through narrative or actions.

⸻

ANCIENT EGYPT

The Kemetic culture had no such problem with Women. The Egyptians used to believe in duality which is balance and equality for order to be maintained.

The deity of order and justice was female: Ma’at.

The deity whe saved and ressurected Osiris was female: Isis.

Man and Woman created the Universe through Geb and Nut. She who bore all the Gods, is always depicted as being on top of Geb.

1-16-26 to 1-20-26
The next several days are likely to have us showing off what we know, speaking up, sometimes loving and sometimes not so much.

Mercury, Mars, Sun and Venus are conjunct in Sagittarius and are hanging out with the Moon too.

Venus is on the cusp of Capricorn with Pluto as well, and it all feels like a lot to me.

We are heading towards the New Moon in Sagittarius on the 18th.

By the 18th, (New Moon) the Sun and Moon are conjunct with Mercury and Mars in Sag, but also conjunct with Venus who is now in Capricorn.

Venus sandwiched between Pluto and Mars may force us to focus on what we really want because shake-ups and conflict are an efficient way to let us know what we don’t want and when we know what we don’t want, it’s easier to decide what we do.

Our philosophical side might want to express itself as we look in the mirror, but with the duality of Mercury we may also be so emotional with the Moon that instead we sit in the corner and cry.

At the same time Mars/Pluto energy will be there to guilt trip any emotions we have, so much so that we feel compelled to move but that would most likely be in complete misalignment to what we truly desire.

It’s probably a good time to stop and ask do I know where I want to go. Do I know where I am heading?

Then truly Stop for a minute, or two, and take a few deep breaths – like at least three!

How can we use all of this to our advantage?

Figure out what is desired.

Next, the time is right to use what we know, tap into our higher-self, and create intentions that are aimed in the direction of our desires.

The Archer (Sag.) sets the stage for us to ride the arrows of our creations, but it starts with where we aim – and just like shooting an arrow, we must pull back first.

Without tension, without Pluto shaking things up, Capricorn trying to be in control, the Sun illuminating the child within bringing emotions, (Moon) temper tantrums (Mars) and the adult child trying to explain it all (Mercury) we wouldn’t feel the uncomfortable seat beneath us, that we’ve continued to sit upon. (We tend to move when we are uncomfortable.)

If we take the time now to focus on what we really want – not an end goal, but a means goal.

Not just I desire this, but if I have this I will _____ (fill in the blank). (Preferably elaborate as much as possible on the “I will because”.)

Find the ways in which your desire lights you up. Find the ways in which all the challenges to attain those desires help you grow towards that light.

Venus just started her new 8-year cycle on the 6th. It’s a perfect time to focus on our desires, to set the intentions NOW that will carry us through, even when the tensions of Pluto in Capricorn (Shake-ups in government) which aren’t going away any time soon, and right now the Sun in Sagittarius (Setting it up on the World stage) finds us feeling small and insignificant.

We might not be able to control the World, but we can control how we show up in the World.

What are your desires?
Why do you desire them?
What do you intend to Do with them when you have them?
Point your arrows in the direction You want to go, and maybe Your World will be the better for it.

Start – Today! And use the time before the New Moon, and the shadows after to pick up your flashlight and start walking...
