Virgo Horoscope for January 2012

By Susan Miller

January is going to be very good to you! This is an ideal month for seeing progress on your dearest wishes, especially during the first three weeks. So, dear Virgo, make a list of all you'd like to achieve and start scheduling your calendar. Your love life will be buzzing too, and with just a little nudge from you (such as a willingness to circulate more, or if you are attached, to put aside problems that have been pressing on you both, with no resolve) you can see a wonderful uptick to your emotional life.

You still have Mars in Virgo, which is giving you an enviable advantage, along with the Sun, new moon (as of December 24 last month), and Pluto in Capricorn. At the same time, you also have Jupiter, giver of gift and luck, in Taurus. All these signs are earth signs like yours, so all are supremely compatible and all are working together to help you see success on so many levels. At long last, you will find yourself in precisely the right place at the right time, gathering up many cosmic goodies.

There is so much to say - where do I start? Let's start with Mars, now in Virgo, and not planning to spend time in your sign for the usual seven weeks, but for a total of nearly eight months! This trend started back in mid-November 2011 and will continue until July 3, which in astrological terms is a whopper of a long stay. The universe is giving you the nod to take the lead in all your endeavors - do so with no hesitation. Others will look to you for direction.

One of the big features of the first three weeks of January is that for the first time I am seeing NO planets in retrograde, which means that all the planets of our solar system will be strong and sturdy, able to help you in awesome ways. That will change when Mars in Virgo begins his retrograde in Virgo from January 23 to April 13.

A retrograde planet is a weak one that withholds its best powers, so this behooves you to get proposals and key meetings, exams, and presentations done prior to January 23. This does not mean you can't go on with your life after January 23 (of course not), but you will have to be prepared to put more time and energy into your projects after that date - approvals and progress won't be quite as easy as they are now.

During that nearly three-month period that Mars goes out of phase, you won't find it as easy to get things approved quickly. (I realize "easy" is a relative term - in this world economy, nothing is ever exactly easy! You get my point, I am sure.) Mars rules your solar eighth house of other people's money, dear Virgo, so, for example, if you are expecting an infusion of venture capital, it may get held up. If you are in talks to divide property in a divorce, and expect things to wind down to a settlement soon, there could be a glitch at the last minute that delays things to the end of April.

Actually, I LOVE the aspects coming to you at the end of April - that's the new moon in Taurus, a great time of the year for you. The month of May, first half, will shine brilliantly for you too. If you do experience delays from January 23 onward, view it as a way a loving universe is trying to help and protect you. Things may be held up to help you see a better conclusion.

I know, when it comes to money, delays are not at all welcome. Others depend on you fulfilling your own financial obligations, and a delay can cause a domino pile-up effect on your end, making you a little frantic. You will have to have a backup plan in place, just in case this should happen. (I am not saying this definitely will happen, only that it might, as I am seeing a slight rise in probability.) I realize crafting a contingency plan can be tough to do at the last minute. Not all problems in life can be avoided, but I feel that if you at least stay in constant communication on the phone (not text) you will be doing the best you can do on your end.

Also, I don't want you to launch anything new and vital during a Mars retrograde phase because Mars is the energy planet, and without his support, your relationships and new ventures will only have lackluster energy. The day you begin something new, in business or personally, is important, for it is the birth of that endeavor or relationship. You would want Mars to be as strong as it can be. To be honest, if you start a new romantic relationship after January 23, you may find the chemistry between you and your new partner lacking. Mars rules sexuality, which is the reason I say this. (I was hoping not to drop the other shoe with this information.)

To succeed in life, especially in business, you need fire in the belly, dear Virgo, and you have it now. Passion for what is important to you is the most attractive, magnetic quality anyone can possess, and is something worthy of nurturing. While you have all systems "go" with the planets, you must take full advantage during January 1 to 22.

Astrologers are divided about the effect on love and sex with Mars retrograde. I need to more research, and I would like to hear your thoughts and experiences too. I will be on Twitter to read what you have to say as we go along. Astrologers DO agree on all else I have discussed pertaining to Mars retrograde - the booster rocket energy of this Red Planet IS lacking during those phases.

We won't have a good "read" on Mars' effect on until later in the year, well after the retrograde is over, or much beyond that, but I invite you to contribute your thoughts. I need to continue my research, so to find me on Twitter, my name is @astrologyzone and I tend to check Twitter every day. There are too many Susan Millers in the world, which is why I am using the name of my website. I am on Facebook, too, as "Susan Miller Astrology Zone". Mars does not retrograde that often - only every two years - but now that it will, and we have social media, I can check in on all your experiences!

The new moon last month, on December 24, lit your fifth house of romance / children / creativity, and was very special. It reached out to Jupiter in Taurus in a perfect mathematical "trine" and that is the best configuration that you can get. That new moon will still hold sway over your romantic experiences during the first week of January, an ideal time for you to meet new people if you are single. Mars will make you magnetic, Jupiter will make you optimistic and sunny, and Pluto will help you transform your life through love, children, and creative efforts. My goodness, you have awesome support! The new moon will help you during that time, but the Sun and Mars will help you a while longer, until January 20.

If you are hoping to get pregnant, this would be an ideal time to try for conception - don't delay. You need to outrun Mars, so there's not a moment to spare. This same energy can be effectively put toward a creative project that you may be working on now, and with such gratifying results!

I will admit Uranus was acting up at that new moon of December 24, and was in a tough angle, causing you to be worried about money at some point during the last week of December (or that may still come up in early January). If something came up, it came up out of the blue. One situation may not influence the other (love versus money) - they can be two stand-alone matters that came up at the same time. This is one reason I want you to stay on the tail of anyone who owes you money to avoid any future surprises. You do have an excellent chart during the first three weeks of January, so I want you to use it for all it's worth!

If you are a Virgo born on August 24, or within five days of this date, you were to benefit the most (and perhaps also feel Uranus' difficult money aspects) from the new moon, December 24.

An exciting social event may take place over the days that fall from Friday, January 6, to the full moon, January 9, or it may happen a few days later, as late as Friday, January 13. (I tend to think your event will most likely fall over the first weekend, though). What a gorgeous event! You will want to go, and you must! The only tight aspect this full moon is to make is a direct link to still-energetic Mars, ensuring you will be one of the most interesting, lively, and vibrant people in attendance! This could turn out to be the social event of the season, dear Virgo.

This full moon will fall in Cancer, 18 degrees, bringing all kinds of loving feelings to the surface. The event you attend may have some family members present too, such as would be the case at a wedding, anniversary, birthday or reunion party, and the mix of both friends and family would make it even more fun.

If your birthday falls on September 10, you will feel the energy from this glorious full moon more than other Virgo friends.

After the full moon of January 9, you will have another red-letter day for fun and romance, coming on January 12, when the Sun and Mars in Virgo schedule a meeting on your behalf. If you could bottle all your dazzling romantic aspects, we all would buy them, dear Virgo. Again, singles are fortunate, but actually, attached Virgos will be too. At the end of this report I will go into more detail about the attached Virgos.

This day, January 12 and also January 13 (due to the meeting of Venus and Neptune in your workaday sector), can be used for perfecting and energizing an ongoing or new creative project. I always love to see great aspects that will foster and encourage the growth of creative efforts. As you see, this month, especially from January 1-13, will be very strong.

As an aside, I told my children while they were growing up that if you are creative, you will always be happy, for creativity will give you an inner feeling of satisfaction and pride that no amount of money could ever match. I suppose that is why my children grew up to be in creative fields, Chrissie as a self-employed fashion designer with her own label, and Diana working so creatively as a producer in the television music industry. If you can point to something you made or an idea you offered that turned out brilliantly, and say, "I did that!" it gives you a feeling of such joy that nothing else can match.

In my reports to you, I will always point out days when you might want to work hard on your creative ideas, concepts, and projects, dear Virgo. Everyone has a creative spirit that is expressed in vastly different ways. Encourage yours, and don't ever let anyone tell you that you don't have the talent. Get lessons if you need them, but keep going. Passion and love for what you do will always be what keeps you going toward greatness.

One last parting thought I would like you to always keep in mind. Your natal horoscope is completely unique in the world. No one will ever have your chart, for the natal horoscope is based on the day, month, year, time, and geographic location of your birth. The planets will never assume the same place and degree, not in the future, and not back in time, say, when Cleopatra was alive. Even twins have different charts, for astrology puts so much emphasis on every tiny mathematical degree. You were given life to express your thoughts, your perspective, your feelings - not the ones your parents or spouse think you should express. This is your life, your creativity, and you must sing YOUR song in your heart.

After you reach January 23, the new moon, the theme of the month will shift toward your sixth house of work projects, and your social phase will quiet down a little. This same new moon will also put a big emphasis on your health and fitness. This new moon, falling in Aquarius, 3 degrees, will be very exciting, for it will send a wink to Uranus, the planet of surprise.

If you work for others, you may now get a plum project, most likely one that is linked to scientific research, high tech and software development, telecommunications, or digital media, such as the Internet or app development. You may be working on a project in an emerging industry (such as the "green" industry), one of the sciences, including biology, or be involved with humanitarian / charitable or community causes. All these areas will be lucky for you. Astrology could also play a part in your work life at this new moon, as Uranus rules the whole sphere of astrology as well as all things in science that are unknown or not completely understood. Aquarius is the sign of the futuristic pioneer, so whatever you work on after January 23, and in the two weeks that follow, is sure to bring you into new territory.

At this new moon, events will be very positive and at the same time, so very unexpected! I love this! You may get a new project from your boss, or if you are self-employed, you may now get a surprise client - one that is very stimulating and special that helps you learn about new things. Virgo always needs to be intellectually engaged and stimulated, and this new moon will do that for you, for sure.

The New Year is often a time to focus on one's lifestyle and habits, so this new moon will be your best friend in helping you develop a unique and very individual program. (Uranus, so active and friendly at this new moon, is known to be very individual and independent in approach.) In astrology it matters a great deal when you begin any endeavor, so take this opportunity to start your new fitness program, January 23 and the days that follow. You will have two weeks in which to begin, although I will say that with Mars going retrograde later that day, I would like you to sign up a day or two earlier.

Mars rules athletic competitions and any activity that requires energy and drive. It rules iron metal, so if your program includes weightlifting (even on a small scale), you would want to begin before Mars goes retrograde January 23.

You can also schedule all your yearly exams now, including your eye test, blood chemistry, dental exam, and mammogram for women, and other tests that your doctor may have recommended you take. This new moon will be your friend, so when it comes to health-related matters, don't delay. Life gets busy, but while you have such an encouraging new moon, I would like you to take full advantage. Often I see a new moon that is mixed in outlook, so in those cases, I show you how to work with the good and avoid the downside of the aspect. This time, however, there is only positive energy surrounding this new moon.

If you have been ill with a chronic illness, a new medicine or technology may now give you reason for hope - check with your doctor or get a second opinion. Neptune, the planet of confusion, is about to leave your health sector for the first time since 1998, when it enters Pisces on February 3. Neptune will never re-enter your house of health again in your lifetime (next visit: the year 2161). This is great news: 1) If you've had a case that has been very hard to diagnose, for with Neptune moving out, you now have hope for a new answer to your condition, or 2) If your condition is made more troublesome (or is created by) water in your body in some way, the news of Neptune's departure in a matter of weeks has to be cause for celebration. As I said, do get checkups and catch up on new medical advances that might benefit you, dear Virgo.

Romantically, you already know this month is a standout. It does not matter if you are single or attached - you will see progress and likely feel a tender closeness with the one you meet or are with now. I had mentioned that the first part of January will be so very special for single Virgos, but attached Virgo will not be left out, not one bit! You have very fortunate aspects too. Love planet Venus will enter your seventh house of committed love on January 14 and remain there through February 7.

Your most romantic dates include: January 2-5, 10-12, 13, 14, 17, 20, 21, 25, 28, and 29-30.

This is a golden vibration for spending quality time together. Your interaction should turn out to be smooth, and you can even gently bring up something you had hoped to discuss without fear of getting your partner upset.

Having said that, dear Virgo, emphasize the positive in your relationship, and don't be overly eager to analyze the problems too much this month. Couples need fun time together, free of questions and analytics, for being just plain happy together forms the glue that will hold you together through good times and bad. Of course, if you've been truly unhappy together for a very long time, you may part, and that may occur in late February or March. For now, see how things go. For once, in a very long time, you have the full force of the universe on your side. You deserve to be happy, and all the little planets are gathering around you to see that you will be in this magical month of January.

Summary

You are a very industrious sign, but even you need time off sometimes. Early January seems ideal for taking a breath. It takes you longer than most signs to relax, but now that you are apparently feeling amorous AND glamorous, stay in the moment. The recent new moon of December 24 dazzled with romantic possibilities and is still exerting a strong vibration as you enter January. If you have not met someone special to love, circulate! You'll have a perfect opportunity over the full moon of January 9, as well as over the preceding weekend of January 7-8, when you are likely to be invited to THE social event of the season, one attended by many friends, and possibly family too. (The only concern you may have would be about the large amount of money you will have to lay out, which is coming at a hard time, just after the holidays.)

You have several major advantages to help you find love, aside from the glorious new moon December 24, mentioned above. Jupiter, giver of gifts and luck, is still in earth sign Taurus, adding extraordinary oomph to your charisma. Secondly, Mars is still in Virgo, so this planet of sex appeal will continue to raise your profile in social circles. If you have been feeling shy about putting yourself "out there," Mars, now in Virgo, will coax you out of your shell. If you feel the need to change your methods for finding love, Mars will help you do that too. Those attached are lucky - Venus in your partnership sign of Pisces from January 14 to February 8 will see that you enter a blissful phase.

If you did not take a vacation recently, do so in early January, for you'll be feeling ultra-social and open to experiencing new sights, sounds, and flavors. There will be no better way to unwind than being away from your usual environment. Hurry because as you get later in January, your work life is about to get hectic.

The new moon January 24 will mark a turning point, for then your assignments and workload will increase, and you will have to get back into industrious mode. That won't be hard for you, because with Mercury in perfect angle to Mars, you'll be enthusiastic about the projects you're given and will be eager to get started.

Computers and high tech electronic devices and new software can help you keep your project on track, for that new moon will be in Aquarius, the sign of all things just invented and, it follows, high tech. Finding ways to do more work in less time and with ease is always a fine idea, but especially when you are super busy, as you will be in late January. All month, your creativity will be very strong, but especially in the first three weeks.

As you see, the universe has cooked up many opportunities for you! To see the best of all these goodies, you must show the universe your intent. Use these glittering vibrations to the max!

Dates to Note for Virgo

Love is brilliant for you in early January, thanks to last month's new moon December 24, still strong now.

Attached Virgos will benefit in a big way from Venus in Pisces January 14 to February 8.

Take a vacation in early January if you like.

You will be your most creative in the first 14 days of January.

Circle January 8 as a potentially excellent day for many reasons. All news will be good news. Travel on this day should go well too. The only problem will be the money you spend.

Once you get to the new moon January 23, work projects will start coming your way. You seem to be concerned about money - these will bring extra cash.

Mars in Virgo puts you front and center, for months, from now until July 3.

Mars going retrograde in Virgo, January 23 to April 13, however, will slow down progress. No matter - you still are the leader of the zodiac.

Money may concern you, especially in regard to social plans, on January 19 due to Saturn square the Sun.

On the other hand, good news about money could come in on January 21.

Your mind will be razor sharp on January 23, due to Mercury in perfect angle to Mars.

Most romantic dates: January 2-5, 10-12, 13, 14, 17, 20, 21, 25, 28, and 29-30.

Why My Book Is Late

By Susan Miller

All year I was listening hard to all that you asked me on Twitter and Facebook. I realized how valiantly you were all coping with the challenges that a difficult world economy had wrought, and how dearly you needed to know which areas of your life would be bring you the greatest progress and happiness.

I had a manuscript almost ready, but thinking about your words, I felt I had to add much more material to it. What you asked me and what you said on my social networking pages kept echoing in my mind. So in November, I announced to my team I was lengthening the book dramatically. I was adding chapters and doubling each sign's chapter from what I had already written, which are now almost four times as long as my regular Astrology Zone forecasts. Only you can be the judge of what I have done, but I feel this book, still in progress, is the best book I have ever written. It would be easier if I didn't have to stop to write 40,000 words for Astrology Zone each month, but of course, I would always do that!

I set out to create a book that would help you every day of the year. Why, I asked myself, write a good book when I could stretch and push myself to create a great one for you. By now you know I am a perfectionist. My revamped book is the very best I have ever done. It is not finished yet, but I am working every day around the clock on it. It will be wrapped in joy and happiness and it will be of value to you. I have no idea when it will be done, but I know there is great urgency. I am working every minute on it.

There are authors of books out there that pretend to be my book and many of you have written to say you bought their book in error. You only noticed when, you said, it didn't sound like me. My book, a quality paperback book, is not sold in stores; you can only get it here on my website. My book's cover is all over this website?it must look like this cover and have the title, "The Year Ahead 2012" by Susan Miller.

You asked about digital versions. My book WILL be available on all versions of Kindle, Nook, and iPad. Apple has a long waiting process for publishers posting a manuscript, so the other two digital versions, on Nook and Kindle, will appear before the iPad.

Please check my Twitter account @AstrologyZone for updates. You do not have to tweet or participate on Twitter to read my posts. They are public. (Go to http://www.twitter.com/astrologyzone). My tweets are automatically linked to my Facebook account, and there my name is "Susan Miller Astrology Zone"

In the meantime, please order my calendar, The Year Ahead 2012, which is ready. I carefully wrote in each important day, and all the explanations are in easy-to-understand English. I do not use glyphs or astrological language in my calendar; everything is explained in a crystal clear way for a layman. I know you just want to know what is coming and how to plan for it!

Also, I will be presenting all-day talks in Philadelphia (January 21), New York City (February 4), and Los Angeles (February 11). Please scroll above to see the information about those events. Most people find them very helpful!

To create my book and calendar, and to prepare for my talks, I memorized 312 charts (13 lunar months times 12 signs, times two lunations each month: a new moon and a full moon). I started this in April. I memorize all the aspects because sometimes something happening in one part of the sky will influence an aspect happening in another part of the sky - no aspect can be taken alone, by itself. For example, last year, on what was to be the luckiest day of the year, April 6 (Jupiter conjunct the Sun), we also had Saturn opposed to the Sun on the same day, completely washing out the happiness of the luckiest day of the year. I didn't even discuss it in my book - how could I? You see how I have to be vigilant to all parts of the sky for you - you are depending on me to do my homework thoroughly.

Many of you know my mother was extremely ill with pneumonia this summer and in intensive care and then in a nursing home for physical therapy for four weeks. My sister and I were at her side every day to help bring her back to her former strong health by showing her love and attentiveness to all her medical matters, and when she could eat, we brought homemade meals. Little Mom is well now. She is home, and doctors, who were ready to give up on her, cannot get over the remarkable recovery she has made.

I don't regret one minute the time I gave her to get her well again, even though it did take time away from my writing. She has no one but my sister and I to depend upon - together we worked as a team to get Little Mom well. This year the holidays were especially poignant, as we watched her blue eyes sparkle with delight in being with her four grandchildren, who had gathered around her at home to give her love, presents, and kisses.

Please forgive me for being late. If you need to call America Direct Book to check on anything, my publisher, Arthur Heydendael will be happy to answer your questions. His office number is 914.271.3640.

I feel that someday no one will know the conditions under which I wrote my book. My book has to stand on its own, and that's why I need to write the very best book I can for you, especially when just about everyone is feeling the difficulties of the times. I send you this note with great love and gratitude, and sincere wishes for a very Happy New Year.

Hello Comcast!

The fall season of my show "Astrology Zone with Susan Miller" started September 2 in most cities in the USA.

My new TV show is called "Astrology Zone with Susan Miller" (it was formerly called "Horoscopes"). I am very excited to tell you about my new season.

My Video On Demand TV program will be available at no charge each month to 16 million Comcast subscribers who have purchased a digital package. I have finished taping five months of shows for you.

Comcast is only seen in the USA, so for now, we are sorry, there will be no foreign markets planned. Please tell us if you don't see my show in your market.

In most cases, you will find me on "GET LOCAL" where you turn to see your News, Weather, Sports - and my horoscopes! These are the markets that you will most likely find my show under GET LOCAL:

Atlanta, Augusta, Baltimore, Central PA, Washington, DC, New Jersey, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Richmond, Chattanooga, Denver, Fresno, Sacramento, San Francisco, Little Rock, Michigan, New England, Twin Cities, Portland, South Florida, Spokane, Sarasota, and Chicago.

Please note: Comcast is having server problems in some neighborhoods that carry my show in Chicago. If customer support told you my show was cancelled, it was in error. My show is being shown all over America.

If you don't find me in GET LOCAL in the market listed, or you don't live in one of the cities listed but are a Comcast subscriber with Digital Package, then please look under "CUTTING EDGE" and then, under that, "PARANORMAL" - my show would be in this area. Look for Horoscopes or Astrology Zone. I am so happy to know my show is back for a new season. Please let me know how you like the show, and if you have other ideas you'd like me to consider.To write to us about my Comcast show, please write to press@astrologyzone.com

FIND OUT ABOUT YOUR NATAL CHART

Discover your rising sign, the most important element to learn!

If you don't know your rising sign, you won't get quite as much out of my monthly forecasts on Astrology Zone or my daily forecasts on cell phones (or delivered to your email box daily by Daily Astrology Zone). You could also get so much more from my Year Ahead 2012 book if you know your rising sign, as a rising sign helps to set up some of the timing in a chart.

To have your chart done, you would need to know your precise time of birth, to the minute. If you do know it, then you would be wise to have your natal chart done. Once you do, you can memorize your rising sign, for it will never change. This explains why all Aries are not alike, or all Gemini - we are all a beautiful, rich combination of the rising sign and Sun sign, as well as a tapestry of the other planets. On the day you were born, the pattern in the sky will never be repeated in time or space - you are truly unique. What a magical piece of information!

Your natal chart will never change - it stays the same for life! You need only do your natal chart once and never again. Once you do have your chart, you will get more insight into your innate gifts and personality strengths.

I write one book one at a time for each customer, so I would love to do one for you! We try to keep costs down and reasonable, so the cost is $49.95 plus handling and shipping, and it takes a little over two weeks to receive.

To order go to this link and choose the purple and yellow, adult version book,

(We have another version for babies that has a pink cover.)

Later, in your own email box, you will be asked to confirm that you signed up - don't forget to respond. (If you don't confirm your willingness to be on the newsletter, it won't arrive. This is a way to protect your privacy, so that others don't sign up for you.)

If you are a longtime reader, you know that I am careful about not sending lots of newsletters. You are busy, so when I write to you, I will always have a good reason - to share important news you can use. I would rather err on the side of caution and send out too few than flood your email box with too many correspondences.

In my newsletters I will discuss astrology and philosophical topics. I will also make one or two announcements. You will not get "spam" from me - I don't like getting those kinds of emails, and I won't send you anything I would not want to receive myself.

If you are not sure if you signed up or not, try entering your email address. If we already have it, you will get an instant message that says so. If you are new to the list, you will be asked to confirm your desire to be on the list with an instant email in your email box.

Your name and email address will never be sold, lent, or given away. I value your privacy. I see my newsletter, as well as Twitter, as a good way for you and me to stay in touch.

Please add "Astrologyzone" to your address book to ensure you will get your newsletter. If you feel you did sign up but never received my newsletter, it may have mistakenly landed in your spam box. Please let your provider know you would like to receive my newsletters.

It's fun for me to have a venue like a newsletter to discuss topics at length that would not quite go on Astrology Zone.
