Intuitive Astrology with Molly McCord

We are in a “powerhouse week” where off-planet cosmic activity and on-the-ground realities feel intensely personal, spotlighting the early degrees of Aquarius and Aries, especially as Neptune re-enters Aries on January 26. The lived effects of a multi-day geomagnetic storm (fast, Earth-facing CMEs disrupting systems and stirring sensitivities like headaches, insomnia, heart palpitations, mood shifts, and agitation) is coinciding with the astrology of Aquarius season and a string of Pluto conjunctions (Venus, then Mercury, the Sun, and Mars), emphasizing deep upgrades to our nervous systems, internal “electrical circuitry,” and energetic awareness. Pluto amplifies extremes and fear, so it is important to repeatedly return to a “zero point” reset for grounding and empowerment amid high-intensity collective triggers, especially as Mars enters Aquarius (Jan 23) and conjoins Pluto (exact Jan 27). This is a culmination of a two-year Mars–Pluto storyline that can bring revelations, consequences, and endings. Neutrinos are constant “information carriers,” highlighting how heightened consciousness may be helping us perceive more of what’s in the field, while also noting real-world parallels like severe winter storms and infrastructure vulnerabilities. Late January into February is a rapid pivot into new timelines, bigger reality-splits, and accelerated innovation, all setting the stage for Saturn entering Aries (Feb 14) and the Saturn–Neptune conjunction (Feb 20). Stay open to unfamiliar solutions, intuitive downloads, and the fresh momentum of a long Neptune-in-Aries era.

Aquarius season 2026 is especially powerful as the Sun enters Aquarius on January 19th and joins Venus, Mercury, Mars, and Pluto there, all building toward a pivotal solar eclipse at 28° Aquarius on February 17th and the beginning of the Fire Horse year. Aquarius's fixed air breaks apart Capricorn-built structures in order to innovate, liberate, and advance both individuals and the collective through future-oriented vision, rebellion against limiting norms, and multidimensional self-understanding. Within the larger shift from the Age of Pisces into the Age of Aquarius, we more fully enter an era of accelerated technology, AI, scientific breakthroughs, nervous-system upgrades, and expanding awareness of galactic connections, off-planet memories, and multidimensional consciousness. We are meant to merge heart and mind rather than repeat shadowy technocratic excesses and narcissistic patterns. Aquarius the water bearer is pouring higher intelligence, downloads, and new paradigms into humanity, often through disruptions and chaos. It is time to dismantle outdated systems so more functional, heart-centered, and equitable structures can emerge with the combined influences of Uranus (disruption) and Saturn (integration and utility). With Pluto now in early Aquarius and all four personal planets conjuncting it between January 19th and 27th, this season will intensify personal and collective transformation, asking us to face fears, shadows, and social pressures, release outdated identities and expectations, and courageously step into our own evolutionary path, gifts, and future self. It is also essential to stay open to the big timelines, galactic influences, and ascension opportunities that are rapidly unfolding on the planet now.

The powerful astrology of late January has four personal planets (Venus, the Sun, Mercury, and Mars) moving through early Aquarius and forming consecutive conjunctions to Pluto at 3° Aquarius, creating a two-week period of intense transformation and energetic amplification. These activations work through different layers of the energy body (mind, heart, body, and consciousness), potentially catalyzing a “full system upgrade” that dismantles outdated expectations, identities, and life directions while revealing new gifts, knowingness, and personal evolutionary paths. Both the elevated and shadow expressions of Aquarius will be alive and on display, including fixation, alienation, emotional bypassing, and intellectual rigidity that may surface during this time, alongside powerful breakthroughs, clair downloads, and expanded awareness. Collectively, the transits may coincide with disruptions in Aquarian-ruled systems—including technology, data centers, communications infrastructure, and transportation—so preparation and analog backups may be wise. Ultimately, these Pluto conjunctions initiate deep personal and societal shifts that cannot be denied or reversed, paving the way for more empowered, future-oriented creations as new soul chapters take shape.

The astrological weather is highly active this week with over 20 transiting aspects that accelerate change, breakthrough, completion, and forward momentum. A stellium of planets in late Capricorn forms supportive trines to Uranus RX in Taurus and sextiles to Saturn and Neptune in Pisces, offering tangible solutions, relief, and opportunities after weeks of heavier density and responsibility themes. The Capricorn New Moon on January 18 at 28 degrees marks a powerful karmic completion point and a new long-term intention setting moment rooted in maturity, mastery, and self-respect. As the personal planets rapidly shift into Aquarius afterward, consciousness opens to new ideas, innovations, and future-oriented pathways amid the collapse of outdated systems. Although the external world may feel chaotic, you may choose to invest in inner stability, remain adaptable, say “yes” to surprising openings, and trust that fast endings lead to fast beginnings as new timelines unfold.Fire & Form Live Workshops starting in February! 3 live astrology workshops with personal chart readings covering Neptune enters Aries, Saturn in Aries, the Saturn-Neptune conjunction, and the February 17 Aquarius Solar Eclipse, Year of the Fire Horse.

The powerful energetic threshold from Capricorn to Aquarius that humanity is moving through in January 2026 relates to years of Capricorn lessons around structure, mastery, responsibility, and physical-world achievement. Earlier in the decade, Pluto, Saturn, and Jupiter in Capricorn already prepared us, and now a cluster of personal planets will cross from Capricorn into Aquarius, activating this shift at a more personal level. Capricorn brings the soul’s work in form, commitments, and integrity, and Aquarius brings the corresponding liberation into new visions, energetic sovereignty, and nonlinear timelines marked by detachment, higher consciousness, and faster intuitive processing. At a personal level, identify where late Capricorn and early Aquarius degrees fall in your chart to understand where major transitions are unfolding. This week, you may sense it is time to honor the new clarity, neutrality, and future-oriented frequency emerging.
