Yesterday, Monday, December 31 and today Tuesday, January 1 sees the Moon journeying through the eighth zodiac in the constellations Scorpius. Scorpius is one of the 48 constellations identified by the Greek astronomer Ptolemy in the second century. The Sun is also moving through the zodiac of Capricorn and will remain in this transit until January 20.
Astrologer Marina of MarStars Astrology Insights believes this transit will have a direct impact on your life in the upcoming 45 days.
She said: “What’s even more important is that Mars is in the sign of its rulership.
“It happens approximately once every two years when Mars enters Aries and this is a very significant position because the planet is extremely powerful.”
Capricorn is an earth sign in the constellation Capricornus, and astrologers believe the star sign represents good self-control, discipline and responsibility in all areas of life.
Below are daily horoscopes for each star sign and what they mean for you according to The Astrotwins.
