We have a very interesting transit on January 18, 2023 that acts like an engine.
Paired with this astrological energy, we can bring power to what we focus on today. We’re working with the strange and mystical transit called the solar conjunction Pluto, and depending on what we’re “moving” to today, we can get a lot more than we anticipated.
This transit can extend to whatever emotions are floating around in our heads, which may not bode well for those of us who are either depressed or already overly anxious.
On January 18th we must try to rein in our emotions to the best of our ability because if for any reason we feel bad about life or this and that, today’s transit, the solar conjunction Pluto, will work just as hard to make it happen it all seems so much worse.
Today it works like fear: it comes without rhyme or reason and cannot make sense. It IS easy, and with the Sun conjunct Pluto supporting “IT,” we’re ready for a wild ride today.
Luckily we’re keeping this information to ourselves, which means this isn’t the kind of day you want to isolate other people or even be distant from them; Instead, it’s a private journey into a personal hellscape, and while three zodiac signs in astrology can’t avoid it, it’s a temporary condition to work with.
Hold on tight and don’t fret. We all have “days like this”.
The three signs of the zodiac with rough horoscopes on January 18, 2023:
1. Aries
(March 21 – April 19)
It won’t be easy for you today, Aries, as you have certain things on your mind that are really getting in the way of your progress.
You tend to be preoccupied with “one thing” and you can only seem to move away from that one thing if you are reasonably happy with its state at the time of completion.
Today, during the solar conjunction Pluto, you may only be able to find this moment of accomplishment if you are too picky and detail-oriented. You only want the best, but you can’t stop taking things apart because you’re looking for what can go wrong. And you know what they say, be careful what you look for as you may find it. Today you will waste a lot of time looking for perfection that you know you cannot have.
2. Virgo
(23 August – 22 September)
It’s a tough day for you, Virgo, because today, like so many other days in your life, is dedicated to brooding. Once again you will find yourself stuck in the past. That one old partner comes to mind, and as soon as you focus on them, all you can think about is how bad they’ve been to you and what a fool you were to even let them into your life when you did have.
And even though the breakup happened years ago, here you are, reliving every moment as if you had nothing else to do with your life.
This is also one of the tricks of the solar conjunction Pluto, as it tends to throw us back into memories where we splash around as if drowning in a whirlpool.
You may notice that this transit works wonders for others, but that’s also because those others have “good” thoughts that day. Sun conjunct Pluto accentuates “bad” moods.

3. Scorpio
(October 23 – November 21)
A Pluto transit could hit you either way, good or bad, but unfortunately you can’t deal with it today. You’ve got your head in the clouds, which means your body is just trying to keep up. You have way too much on your mind and it’s starting to weigh you down; Your intention is to do, do, do, but your body is asking, “Wait, did I even have coffee today?”
One cup is enough, so don’t indulge in too much of the “things” that you think will calm that anxious feeling you’re carrying around today, Scorpio. You will also seek comfort, which is why you must avoid what you know is not good for you. Understand this: whatever you go through that day will not last, is only in your head and will be ridiculous within a day or two. Hold on, friend!
