The Sky Now - An Astrology Blog (January 23)

The Sun in Aquarius is in exact conjunction with Mercury Sunday, January 23.  With Mercury retrograde the energy of this interplanetary Air Element union is going to be best for quiet introspection.  A Libra Moon adds to the inner balance/inner harmony tone of the weekend. Activities such as reading, meditation nature walks, journaling and yoga are ideal for these energies. Poets, philosophers and painters should thrive under these energies. Sunday would be an ideal day for a mini-retreat. Shared time with intimates now will feel best with someone you can be quiet with. Fighting this energy would be trying to get a lot done now. Flowing with it would be slowing down and just being in the moment.  Of course that still state of reflection has much to offer in the area of self-awareness. The energies of this Aquarius Sun/Mercury conjunction will be strong 
through to Monday evening.
