While the Sun will always spend the last 10 days and the first three weeks of each year in your sector of adventure, travel, learning and discovery, something has changed and this is no longer as permanent as it once was. For the first time since 2007, when the Sun returned just before Christmas it was to find Pluto, the planet of change and transformation gone and while he has dipped in and out over the last two years, this time he is not only gone for good but is in the early months of a 20 year visit to your career sector. By the time the Sun returned Venus and the dwarf planet Ceres had also left, but not before helping you work on your bucket list. While Mercury will move through from 8th January to 28th January and that will help you turn that bucket list into a game plan and resolutions, with the Sun leaving on 20th January and no more planets returning until later in the year, this will leave this adventurous part of your chart empty. This will be a whole new experience and especially as this coincides with the rise of the professional side of life's fence. While Venus will leave your career sector on 3rd January, the dwarf planet Ceres is here until later next month, the Sun will return on 20th January, Mercury on 28th January and the Moon on 29th January to begin the lead up to the first New Moon of 2025 a day later. By that point your sector of adventure, travel, learning and discovery will be empty, a brand new experience, but helping to maintain a balance between work and play will be the South Node's return to a playful and creative part of your chart on 12th January. Meanwhile, Venus is moving on to spend the rest of the month in your friendship sector, where she will benefit from the support of the asteroid Juno in your relationship sector from the start and from Mars' return to your communication sector on 6th January. It is there that a Full Moon on 14th January will see the Moon and Mars join forces to push for a communication breakthrough.
