Creativescopes for January 2023 are here! These horoscopes are crafted and designed to help you tap into your creative cycles this season. Astrology is a language for understanding the human experience, so take what resonates for you and leave the rest. You can read these messages for both your sun and rising signs.
Capricorn Sun & Rising
Capricorn, remember the fire from whence you came. There is a certain remembering, reconnecting, embracing of the past right now that is giving great secrets and great gifts, uncovering that which used to feel concealed in some way. It’s your season, and the sun is shining brightly on you, even now, in the heart and center of winter. Celebrate what you love about yourself, that which makes you different, and remember that while practicality is a worthwhile endeavor, so is romance. Talk about your feelings this month, those that love you (and there are many) long to listen.
Aquarius Sun & Rising
As Saturn begins to shift out of Aquarius over these next few months, the lessons of this transit are more crucial than ever as integration can start to happen. What have you learned about yourself over these last few years? About what makes you tick? About who you are and the role you’re meant to play in your community and through this wild web. This month, something is coming to light, you may feel it at the fringes of your perception, but slowly, the dreaming world has a message for you. Craft poems, delight in the surreal, and remember that what is shared in the dark is often the truth.
Pisces Sun & Rising
Pisces, the support you’ve been longing for is heading your way with the fire of the winter hearth at its heart. Make a list of the resources you need to help you create your best work, and then don’t be surprised when those things appear. If you’ve been struggling to sleep during the beginning of this new year, perhaps stay with the sleeplessness to connect with the secrets of the night owl. Paint a picture of your dreams, finger paint, watercolor, and write a poem that doesn’t make “logical sense.” Experiment this month. The ancestors, guides, and ascended masters have something they’d like to share.
Aries Sun & Rising
Aries, even in the darkness of winter, your spark burns bright. This month, you may be grappling with something heavy, but know that through alchemizing that which feels burdensome, there is an excellent gift longing to be shared with the world on the other side. Consider that which has made you, you. If you have been forged in the fire, you understand the sacredness of flame.
Taurus Sun & Rising
Taurus, your emotions are center stage this month, but if the feelings are flooding, take a different approach instead of drowning. For example, if caught in a rip tide, you should swim parallel to the shore instead of trying to swim out of the current. It may take some patience, but you’ll soon understand why people call patience a true gift. Something is surfacing around your higher calling this month. I reckon that if you remember and celebrate your eccentricities, fight for justice, and connect with the collective as yourself, you’ll feel that fulfillment you’ve been looking for.
Gemini Sun & Rising
Gemini, this January will genuinely be a trip to the underworld. Expect rebirth, expect the unexpected, and expect to be drawn to the shadow in your creative work this month. What does this look like? Invite your shadows to tea, take your most “problematic” parts out to dinner, and romance what makes you dark, different, and messy. This month is about finger painting, Gemini. Don’t be afraid to make yourself new again and again.
Cancer Sun & Rising
Cancer, though it may be the darkness of winter in the northern hemisphere, a fire is burning in your ribcage, a spark lit toward your most passionate desires. This month it’s time to get clear on who you want to be and what you’d like to contribute to your work and the world during the year ahead. Be honest. It can be something “small” or “strange.” It might not look what you thought it would look like, and that’s okay. Once you connect with that flame, move toward it.
Leo Sun & Rising
Leo, this month there may be both friction and blessings in your work and collaborations with others (a reminder that these words are not mutually exclusive). If the road gets rocky, don’t panic because sometimes the unpaved roads have the best sights. Enjoy the conversations, take a deep breath, and try to see the vistas from a different perspective.
Virgo Sun & Rising
Virgo, this month, turn your discerning eye toward romance and love. What creative aspects of your work and process could use a little bit of a vibe shift? Allow yourself to lounge, revel in softness, and celebrate the making. Adorn yourself in clothes that make you feel luxurious, work with the color red, or buy yourself roses (whatever makes you feel bliss - follow that).
Libra Sun & Rising
Libra, this month, in your creative work with others, there is a spark, a flash of tinder, the beginning of a fire. Though most might not describe you as decisive, per se, it’s usually because you honor the balance of all choices. However, you know what you want this month, and that’s also a beautiful feeling. Brainstorm, call on the creative talents of a friend, and have those passionate conversations. The world is waiting for you. Go.
Scorpio Sun & Rising
Scorpion, dear friend, this month, celebrate that which makes you, you. While some may describe you intense or private, or even intensely private, these words, which sometimes masquerade as insults, are gifts. Your darkness is a gift. Your shadow holds a story. You are the sum of all your parts. This month, dive deep. The support is there, your language is poetry, and your fuel is the Duende, don’t wait.
Sagittarius Sun & Rising
Sagittarius, this month is all about being well-resourced. Take stock of what you need to get the job done, feel supported, and feel creative. Are your needs being met? While asking for help can be difficult, consider this an act of building your creative team. A creative team can consist of a toolbox of different approaches, working with your ancestors or guides, or studying a lineage of creativity. Connect with this space, and see what calls to be created.
