January 16 - January 22, 2023
Before and after the Sun leaves your career sector on Friday, something that three months into every new professional year will take the solar spotlight off your career and professional situation, matters and options, there is a lot still to happen. The week begins with Mercury still in retrograde motion, which means your head is more focused on where you have been, rather than on looking ahead. The Sun has the solar spotlight on the road ahead, but it is not until Mercury turns direct on Thursday that you will have a chance to get your head around where to from here. Until then there is a chance to spend time back at the drawing board. Mercury will turn direct during the Sun's last full week but also just as he aligns with Pluto, the planet of change and revolution. After over 14 years, Pluto is leaving with Mars and if you are going to make changes, this is the year to do it. The Moon's return just before the Sun leaves will be a chance to regroup as you begin the next phase. Mercury is back in direct motion but he's not leaving until next month.
