January 2015 Astrology Predictions

The monthly horoscope for January 2015 is presented for you based on the moon sign, i.e. janma rashi in your horoscope, based on the Vedic niryana system. Please do not substitute your Sun sign or a western astrology moon sign here. If you do not know your janma rashi, please refer to the kundali application on this site. A date based on Moon’s transit over 2nd, 8th and 12th house that indicates anishta is indicated through the month. 8th house presence for Chandra is called Chandrashtama and is a period of grave caution.

The planetary positions for the month of December are as follows:

1. Sun is in Sagittarius at the beginning of the month. It moves to Capricorn on midnight of January 15th. This day is celebrated as Makara Sankranti.
2. Mars is in Aquarius pretty much through the month.
3. Mercury is located in Sagittarius on 1^st of January but immediately moves to Capricorn on 2^nd Jan. It is considered located in Makara during the month. Mercury becomes retrograde on 22^nd January. Mercury attains the greatest speed of retrogression on Jan 30^th, and then it starts slowing down. Mercury come out of retrogression in February.
4. Venus is also in Makara at the beginning of the month. It moves to Kumbha on 23^rd Jan.
5. Saturn is in Scorpio, indicating Sadhe sati for Libra, Scorpio and Sagittarius rashis. It is no longer combust.
6. Jupiter is retrograde in Cancer.
7. Rahu and Ketu are transiting through Virgo & Pisces respectively through the month.

During this month as well, Mars and Saturn are in a parivartana yoga. They are exact square on Jan 15^th. While Saturn doesn’t have a 4^th house drishti, this is still a very potent combination. During the last part of the month, both Jupiter and Mercury are retrograde, indicating that general wisdom in mundane affairs will not work.

Libra – Horoscope for Tula Rashi in January 2015

This is a mixed/neutral month for Libra rashi borns. The first part of the month will be better than the second part. You are under the influence of sadhe-sati, but this is the last leg of it. You will sail through if you follow a spiritual path.

During the month, you will need to ensure that you do not get into unnecessary conflict with the siblings. You will get good support from friends and other relatives. This is also a romantic and exciting time with your partner/spouse. This will be especially true towards the end of the month. You will be inclined to meet new people and enjoy their company, but you need to be cautious with new people and if they bring any bad habits with them. Avoid being too hard on your children and give them space to show their own efforts.

Short travels will be fruitful, long travels will not be. You can take a break and go on a vacation. Although the school season is on, you may still get a deal on late holidays and you may take it.

Due to sadhe sati and other malefic transits, you are feeling fatigued and there is a lack of energy. However, during the month, you will be able to pull yourself up and enjoy good health. There is a chance of diseases in abdomen area. Children could fall ill as well.

During the first part of the month, you will be able to work well, supporting the authority at the place of work. This will give you the right visibility and growth path. Expenses will be high. You aren’t being much disciplined. This is wrong thing to happen at this time as discipline is what you absolutely need – but unfortunately isn’t very obvious. Keep away from stock market if you cannot track it on daily basis. There are going to many ups and downs in the market anyway as you will find out from my post on financial astrology. Keep away from schemes that promise quick and questionable returns.

This is a good time for academics – both teachers and students.

Chandrashtama Days: 1^st, 2^nd and 3^rd Jan, 29^th & 30^th Jan

Scorpio – Horoscope for Vrishchika Rashi in January 2015

This is a mixed month for Vrishchika rashi persons and the situation will become better as the month progresses. In the first half, you need to be careful with the new friends that you are making. You will need to scrutinize their motives. You will do well in the domestic life but you could have problems with relations – who could embarrass you in certain situations. You would be in a mood to party, but there will be some obstacles in the celebrations. In the second part of the month, there would be comfort in family life; however, you must ensure that you are not overworked.

Overall, second phase of your Sadhe sati is on. It has brought great deal of responsibility to you, but you aren’t able to make anyone happy about it. You need to ensure that you work through it and maintain your responsibility with a thought that you cannot make everyone happy.

Through the month, short travels will be beneficial. Such travel will mainly be alone as Sadhe sati also indicates separation from family. Take this in your stride. Take good care of your health while traveling. Travel should also be planned well and you should not waste a lot of time on these travels. Once you are done with your planned work, head home and spend time with family.

You need to ensure that you take good care of eating habits during the month. Indigestion can happen if you aren’t very careful. You should also be careful with chest & eye infections.

Control investment in unknown areas. Keep your contacts in check as you may get tricked. There is opposition at the place of work and you may have trouble executing projects. These problems at place of work will be much better during the second part of the month when association with higher officials will help you.

Sagittarius – Horoscope for Dhanu Rashi in January 2015

Mixed month for Sagittarius is predicted in January 2015 as per the astrological indicators and transits. Although the time is good for marriage and child birth, there will be obstacles. There is focus on individual needs, and tendency to neglect the family. This should be avoided and diplomacy is to be maintained. During the beginning of the month, you will be able to meet up with good friends – reliable friends who will stand by you in long run.

Sadhe sati is now on for you starting last month. You are feeling a little reserved and want to be left alone. This will not help you much and you will need to get out of this mindset by bringing out the fighter in you. Remember the sign of Sagittarius, which is the warrior with bow and arrow. That fire now has to come out.

You will need to balance excessive travel. However, do take up short journeys for conferences and study tours. These will allow you to network with others and increase your support base.

Capricorn – Horoscope for Makar Rashi in January 2015

January 2015 is overall a fair month for Makar rashi borns, with the first part of the month will be better than the second month. There are few obstacles in the second half, which will affect you, especially on the home front.

Planetary transits predict that you will work well with your immediate and smaller family, but when it comes to outside circle of friends and relatives, the demands from both the sides will be too much to handle. Advise would be not to let the emotions get better of you. Avoid unnecessary fights. You could get into ownership disputes with your relatives so that is something to be aware of. Long term transit of outer planets is favourable and then you will not have a lot of worries on that front, but certainly you have had other better months in the year.

During this month, you will have trouble starting on new projects. It is possible that you are vacillating and not taking a stance. Students will have hard time keeping focus on their studies and they may not be able to perform in exams that well.

Chandrashtama Days: 9^th & 10^th Jan

A fair month for Aquarius borns is on the cards for Kumbha rashi.

In the first half, you will have a good relation with elder brother. Auspicious time and events will occur at your home. Domestic life will be happy. Your rash approach may not be good towards friends and other relatives. Avoid getting in to some kind of contest with them. It may cause some distress to you, especially in the second half.
