Ascension Energy Update January 20th–26th: “Secret Self”

Deep Inner Shifts Are Stirring—But Are You Ready to Let Go of What No Longer Serves You? Unexpected Breakthroughs Can Show Up As Old Patterns Push to the Surface. Time To Stop Settling For Less, And Align with the Future You *Truly* Desire…

 

A Time of Deep Detox and Soul-Level Breakthroughs

This week, we’re stepping into a powerful week with some intense energy shifts stirring things up in a big way.

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, having weird dreams, or noticing old insecurities creeping back, you’re not alone. The cosmos is pushing us to clear out layers of the past that are holding us back.

And trust me—this is happening for a reason.

We have multiple powerful transits shaping the energies this week, including the Sun and Mercury joining Pluto, opposed by Mars Retrograde – causing deep detoxing to reveal the glory of the soul self… Plus, North Node joins Neptune in Pisces, activating spiritual gifts…

And, Mars and Venus in harmony with Uranus “say”, surprise breakthroughs can show up in situations that have seemed stuck – especially in creativity, abundance and love.

Let’s dive in!

Breaking Down Old Identities

Mars retrograde is still opposing Pluto, and this combination is working deep in our subconscious.

This is likely feeling heavy and strange. Your dreams might be vivid and feel tiring or disturbed.

These energies are stirring up buried fears, patterns and insecurities—especially ones rooted in childhood and family conditioning.

Pluto’s influence is all about transformation, and right now, it’s working overtime to dismantle outdated versions of yourself that were shaped by societal expectations, ancestral patterns, and past experiences.

This week, take a look at where you’re still holding onto beliefs, emotions and limitations that aren’t truly yours.

Hiding The Soul Self?

Are you stuck in survival mode or struggle?

Are you clinging to a version of yourself that’s based on old fears rather than your true potential?

Pluto is pushing you to go deeper and consciously let go of what no longer serves you.

Because you’re here for so much more!

The Real Problem?

It can be frustrating and make us think the planets are bothering us, but as spirit points out – astrology is not the problem, it’s the negative material that is.

If we had no density or stuck emotions/lower patterns in our being, these transits wouldn’t bother us!

Therefore, you can think of it as a spotlight, showing you where there is still content that needs to be detoxed for your benefit.

Venus Conjunct Saturn: Lessons in Self-Worth and Priorities

Venus meets Saturn in Pisces this week, bringing up important themes around self-worth, boundaries, and alignment.

Are you settling for less than you deserve?

Are you compromising your values to fit into someone else’s expectations?

This energy is urging you to take responsibility for your own happiness and make choices that align with your highest self.

It’s a time to set new standards and honor your own needs—whether it’s in relationships, career, or your spiritual journey.

North Node Conjunct Neptune: Awakening to Your Soul’s True Path

With the North Node aligning with Neptune in Pisces, we’re stepping into another level of spiritual awakening.

Your intuition is likely stronger than ever, and you might find yourself receiving profound insights or feeling drawn to new paths that align with your soul’s mission.

But Neptune’s energy can also bring confusion and illusions, so it’s essential to stay grounded and trust your inner knowing.

The universe is calling you forward to step into a higher version of yourself—are you listening?

The Detox Is Real: Clearing Emotional and Energetic Baggage

Between Mars retrograde, Pluto, and Saturn’s influence, we’re in a major clearing phase.

Your physical body might be feeling it too—fatigue, emotional waves, or unexpected physical symptoms.

This is all part of the deep release process happening right now.

Here’s what to do:

Drink plenty of water to support your system.

Prioritize rest—your body needs time to process these shifts.

Journal your emotions and recurring thoughts for clarity.

Use energy-clearing tools to release deep-rooted fears and blocks.

This isn’t just about feeling better in the moment—it’s about making space for new opportunities and aligning yourself with the flow of abundance and joy.

Shifting Your Mindset and Manifestation

One of the biggest challenges during times of intense energy is feeling stuck in old thought patterns and limiting beliefs.

Are you telling yourself the same stories about why things can’t change?

It’s time to break free from that cycle and open yourself to new possibilities.

Transformation happens when you actively shift your mindset and align your energy with the reality you want to create.

Start focusing on the vision of your ideal life and let go of the doubts that have been weighing you down!


Unexpected Breakthroughs in Love/Abundance and Action

Mars and Venus are in harmony this week, and with both sextile Uranus, things could shift suddenly in ways you didn’t expect.

Especially where something may have seem stuck in the past (Mars’ retrograde)!

This combination brings a dynamic push for change—especially in relationships, creativity, and personal growth.

If you’ve been feeling stuck in old cycles, this alignment offers an opportunity for fresh energy and breakthroughs.

You might find yourself drawn to take bold action or see unexpected opportunities arise in love, finances, and self-expression.

Past stagnation and situations that have felt stuck can shift now, in surprising ways.

Embracing the Unexpected

Uranus encourages you to step outside your comfort zone and embrace a new perspective.

The key here is to stay open and flexible—sometimes, the universe brings surprises that align with our soul’s desires in ways we couldn’t have planned.

Whether it’s an inspired idea, a chance meeting, or a sudden realization, trust that these shifts are helping you align with a higher path of joy and fulfillment.

Pay attention to unexpected nudges and synchronicities—they’re pointing you in the right direction.

Intense Months Ahead

We’re in intense times energetically, and it’s set to last for several months (although Pluto’s effect lessens somewhat as the Sun and Mercury move on next week).

Mars continues his retrograde until late February, and Venus picks up the mantle with her own retrograde just a week later.

Plus, on his path direct later this spring, Mars will end up in more challenges with Pluto.

If you were ever going to learn about energy and how to manage this flow that moves through all of existence, now is the time.

It will benefit you immensely this spring and beyond.

As always, I’m sending you so much love and light for your journey.

You are so much more powerful than you probably think!
