General Daily Insight for January 18, 2025
Confusion gives way to understanding. The emotional Moon is at odds with confusing Neptune today, making it difficult to know what we’re really feeling, especially with the emotions of others. When lovely Venus conjoins disciplined Saturn at 8:26 pm EST, honest and loyal people who haven’t been in our lives for a while may re-enter our lives. Later, the Moon slips into balanced Libra, inspiring us to think about everything more rationally and with a sense of compassion and fairness. Seek that necessary clarity.
Aries
March 21 – April 19
Unexpected connections could reappear in an instant. This is possible even if you cut off contact due to believing they had negative intentions for you in the past, as reconnecting with them may make you realize that this isn’t the case. You’ll be able to be more understanding with them once you’ve gained some distance from what happened between you, and they might be in the same place. Even if you don’t let them back in, you can move beyond your shared history.
Taurus
April 20 – May 20
The people that you have fun with might be about to show up and show you a good time! If you’ve been drowning in work or serious matters, try reaching out to some loved ones! Someone who wants to spend time with you could respond by asking to catch up, letting you watch your worries melt away while you laugh together. It may be a good idea to make this into a regular occurrence and provide space to grow this bond with them.
Gemini
May 21 – June 20
You could be visiting someone who had authority over you in the past. This person may be a teacher, a mentor, or a parent or elder in your family. Be prepared for the revelation that you have more in common than you thought you did! They might tell you stories about their younger days, and you may relate to them in a way that you weren’t expecting. Listen carefully and don’t lead the conversation — now is the time to take in their wisdom.
Cancer
June 21 – July 22
Say what you need to say, Cancer — especially if you missed the chance to say it before. When someone reenters your life, don’t spend too much time internally debating whether or not to let things slide. Refusing to address it might worsen any worries around what’s been on their mind. Your soul could be bursting to say what you’ve been holding in all this time! Let this conversation be cathartic rather than stifling, even if it’s difficult to get it started.
Leo
July 23 – August 22
Insecurity can creep into long-standing connections. There could be someone that you’ve known for a long time, and thought that you were in a good place, but now you could be unsure if they feel the same way. There may not be any bad blood — maybe you’re worried that their care for you has faded or they’ve moved on to new friends. It can be intense to try and address this, so it might be best to simply try and spend time with them.
Virgo
August 23 – September 22
Someone who was close to you in the past could return to you very soon. Perhaps you’ll encounter an old friend, a family member that you were close to, or a former lover. This person might have some interesting news for you — the sort of thing that can your confidence or security, helping you both feel safer. You may not have the same connection that you used to have, but a new spark created during this time could become a flame.
Libra
September 23 – October 22
People that you used to work with might pop up in the present. You’re unlikely to have kept in touch with this person specifically, but they might have interesting news to tell you — even if you weren’t close when you worked together. You could realize that they’re different outside of the workplace, or perhaps that you both have changed in the time since you spent time working together. Be open to accepting them as they are now and getting to know them.
Scorpio
October 23 – November 21
Someone who keeps you laughing could be a blast from the past today. You may normally see this person in a group, so it might be confusing to see them outside of that context. This is a good time to contemplate what your dynamic looks like when no one else is around. This could lead to you becoming better friends and building a connection that will last a lifetime. Be open to letting them show you what it’s like when it’s just you.
Sagittarius
November 22 – December 21
Family that you haven’t seen in a while might make an appearance in your life. You may not be expecting to see them, with a reunion definitely not on the books for you, or you could have known that it could be a possibility that you would run into them, but simply hadn’t planned on it. Maybe they’re present when you’re trying to see another family member! Regardless, keep your mind open and know that your kindness might go further than you think.
Capricorn
December 22 – January 19
People that you met in school or while traveling might play a large role today. Keep your eyes open for past acquaintances throughout your day, since it might be fun to reconnect from updated places in your lives. It may not have been that long ago that you spent time with them, but it feels different now that you’re not in the same environment that you were back then. Cultivate an accepting demeanor as you offer your experiences and hear theirs.
Aquarius
January 20 – February 18
You may be in a more secure place than you used to be. Someone that you knew from a time when you weren’t as established could show up in your life without warning, and you might realize that you feel differently about them now that the balance has shifted between you. In the past, they might not have taken you seriously, possibly even setting off your insecurities with their words or actions. Show them that you’re on solid ground at this time.
Pisces
February 19 – March 20
Someone could want the old you. You have gone through changes since you last spent time with someone in your life, and they might not understand your current self. Someone clutching at the person you once were is a disservice to you, since you have grown past where you used to be! They may still be stuck in the same spot where you left them. Instead of regressing, challenge them to rise to where you are today, because you’re not going back.
