Joni Patry gives an astrology forecast for January 17 describing planetary placements and their practical meanings. Mercury has entered Capricorn joining Mars, Sun, Venus, and Pluto—an emphasis on Capricorn themes (government, leadership, war/peace, reorganization). The Moon is in Sagittarius (Purva Ashada nakshatra) opposed to Jupiter in Gemini, a configuration the speaker links to truth, fact-finding, and healing in both public (political) and personal (relationships, meetings) spheres.

January 17th and Mercury just entered into Capricorn. Now we have Mercury, Mars, Sun, Venus, Pluto all in the sign of Capricorn which represents government reorganization, things that are happening with war and peace and leaders. This is very pertinent Mars being in Capricorn, conjunct the sun or combust the Sun. A lot of things need to change now. The moon is still in Sagittarius this entire day. Sagittarius deals with truth. It deals with justice and our beliefs around spirituality being in Sagittarius but it is in the Nakshatra called Purva Ashada. Purva Ashra deals with truth and fact finding. And the moon is exactly opposed Jupiter today which means truth is coming out reality and truth. Jupiter is in the sign of Gemini of communications. The Moon is in Sagittarius of truth. This is going to heal things with the truth coming out. This can even be about your personal life and this is a good day for relationships, getting along with your partner and or even meeting someone today.
