Today's Horoscope for Thursday January 16th
You will need to face up to a challenge without throwing a tantrum or getting hot under the collar. Sometimes Mars gets everyone edgy and aggravated so you end up making comments you later come to regret. Try not to get rattled by trivial irritations or be petty or devious. You will dislike interference and will have a tendency to be a touch strong in your opinions. Luckily your truthful and straightforward approach should catch general enthusiasm.
The Weekly Outlook from 13th January
This is not a time to stick yourself into tedious routines or get bogged down in following instructions. But watch all the same that you don't get crossed lines and mixed messages along the way. There could be communication or even travel muddles if you do not keep your eye on the ball at times. Around midweek Mars will give you the courage to tackle a tricky situation. You'll be defending your beliefs and standing firm. But let others have their say as well.

Year Ahead 2025
Always an emotionally intense sign, you will be keen to negotiate changes in the family with as little drama as possible. You will have firm ideas about the changes you envisage bringing good results but not all of those close will agree. So you will have to soft pedal on demands and be patient as well as persistent. Regard this as a marathon task, more steady walking than sprinting. You?ll get there eventually with better relationships and more mature connections. Recent events have not all been easy but they have deepened your understanding of the meaning of your life and brought you closer to the right people. The slow transformation behind the scenes will continue for another few months, bringing with it coincidentally more money to keep you secure. Looking after fitness and efficiency will become a priority as Saturn and Neptune together move into Aries mid-year. Additional chores will require you stay on good form so altering your lifestyle to suit the demands on your energy will be wise. Across the middle months of the year more planetary shifts will bring on the one hand high enthusiasm, a wish to spread your lively opinions in all directions, a yearning to travel extensively ? and an equal and opposite drive to explore the mysteries of life in private. Psychic experiences are possible if you are open to the realms beyond the rational. Not that you can always believe your hunches but it will be a learning opportunity. In the final months you?ll be putting your concentration behind sorting out a longer term strategy and finding that feedback from your friendship circle will be invaluable.
