Aries
While the new year is usually a time for setting goals and being productive, you may want to take a lazier approach, Aries, and pace yourself. This last year has been quite the whirlwind for you. With Mars still in retrograde amping up your home spaces, use this time to nurture your intuition, inner wisdom and healing practices, prioritizing self-care and home life.
Taurus
The saying “New year, new me” is starting to feel like more than just a cliché for you, Taurus. This month, you step into the year with a deep sense of determination to make your dreams a reality. Acceptance is the first step toward transformation, and you’re ready to embrace it. Tired of sitting on the sidelines, you’re finally prepared to take center stage as the main character in your own story.
Gemini
January 2025 is a month of love and growth for you, Gemini. Venus inspires affection and connection, making it a great time to nurture relationships or meet someone special. Professionally, focus on laying the groundwork for future success. Stay mindful of your health and embrace sudden changes at home with flexibility. This month sets a positive tone for the year ahead.
Cancer
They say, Cancer, that you must first love yourself before you can truly love another. This January is all about exploring your independent spirit and understanding how it shapes your relationships. Celebrate your personal growth this month and invite your friends to join the fun! With the full moon on Jan. 13th providing the perfect cosmic backdrop, it’s the ideal time to plan a celebration.
Leo
Starting this year off like many others, trying to focus on health and wellness. And while that is all fine and dandy, you may find yourself having an inner power struggle with who you were and who you wish to become. Change is uncomfortable but inevitable.
Virgo
It’s easy to overlook what’s right in front of you, Virgo, and that often includes the close relationships and friendships you might take for granted when seeking inspiration or motivation. This month, challenge yourself to surround yourself with people who encourage you to be your best. With the new year offering a clean slate, it’s the perfect time to set healthy practices for making time for those who matter most.
Libra
You had quite the transformation this year, Libra. Whether it was for the better or worse is up for interpretation. Your tendency to put other before yourself was placed on the back burner, and the rest of the year was all about you, you, you. That will change in the new year – it’s time to focus on mending friendships and relationships.
Scorpio
Usually when people say, “This was the worst year of my life,” they are exaggerating. Well, you certainly are not. 2024 was not kind to you, Scorpio. But that is all turning around right before your very eyes. Two of the most daring and experimental planets, Jupiter and Uranus, each spend six months in Gemini, creating waves in your eighth house of transformation, intimacy and shared resources.
Sagittarius
Let’s be honest, Sagittarius — this past year has been tough on your wallet. But there’s no shame in that. Achieving your goal of financial security doesn’t have to mean burnout or going it alone. This month encourages you to embrace collaboration and be open to receiving help. After all, Rome wasn’t built in a day or by just one person, right?
Capricorn
January 2025 kicks off Capricorn season, putting your discipline and determination in the spotlight. The Dec. 30 new moon is your chance to lock in those big personal and professional goals. With Mercury entering Capricorn on Jan. 8, your decision-making will be on point, but the Cancer full moon on Jan. 16 might stir up some emotional balancing acts between work and relationships. Stay steady — this month’s got success written all over it.
Aquarius
As you step into the new year, Aquarius, health and wellness are front and center in all your choices. Physically, you’re investing in top-tier moisturizers, sticking to a workout routine and trying to go to bed early (emphasis on trying). But to truly become the best version of yourself, the real work lies within — mentally and emotionally. Make a conscious effort to surround yourself with your biggest supporters while also carving out time to nurture your own well-being. It’s all about finding balance.
Pisces
Take a deep breath and hit reset, Pisces. This month, close friends and family will turn to you for emotional support, and to offer them your best, you’ll need to be in a good place emotionally yourself. Fortunately, the stars have a month of smooth sailing in store for you. However, if the emotional weight becomes overwhelming, remember to set boundaries to protect your own well-being.
