““When you have exhausted all possibilities, remember this – you haven’t.” – Inventor, Thomas Edison

The Red Planet Mars, symbolizing our motivation and actions, moves into persevering Capricorn today (9:58 am) where it will presumably buckle down until February 13th.

Mars is in its exaltation in Saturn-ruled Capricorn suggesting that we are potentially more behaviorally equipped now, during this period, to temper our impulses in a more serious and determined manner in our ongoing quest to claim our (inevitable) sweet perch atop the mountain in 2024. 🙂

Mars in Capricorn is typically regarded as being highly ambitious, status-conscious, and results-driven, perennially keeping a steely eye on the big prize.

Too, Mars in the sign of the goat ideally helps us to manage our resources – including our valuable time – more effectively and strategically. Always a good thing.

“A man who dares to waste one hour of time has not discovered the value of life.” –Charles Darwin

Some famous people with Mars in Capricorn include Albert Einstein, Brad Pitt, Julia Roberts, and Shakira.

Born On This Day: English physicist, mathematician and astronomer Isaac Newton (Gravity, Laws of Motion) in 1643 in Woolsthorpe-by-Colsterworth, England (d. 1727).

“Gravity explains the motions of the planets, but it cannot explain who sets the planets in motion.” – Isaac Newton

On This Day in History: On January 4, 1865, the New York Stock Exchange opens for business in its first permanent headquarters on Broad St, near Wall Street, in NYC. The Exchange had formally existed since 1792 but had reportedly operated out of a series of packed Wall Street coffee-houses and rented offices. (gilderlehrman.org)

Astrologically, that day, Venus – which governs money as well as relationships – was in futuristic Aquarius and applying to an exact flowing trine to electrifying Uranus in Gemini, the astrological sign which rules our immediate locale or surroundings.

Positive Venus-Uranus aspects are generally regarded as being more favorable for finance-related matters. Venus also governs beauty or aesthetics and connected with Uranus there may be a desire to modernize or update our environment in novel ways.

Too, this planetary duo is sometimes linked with sudden attractions. For instance, Paul McCartney and John Lennon reportedly met each other for the very first time when Venus and Uranus were conjunct in entertainment Leo. Their financial future together also appeared to work out pretty well! 🙂

Hope it’s a good one! Please be safe and well.
