JANUARY 2025

New year, new things, new astrology to manage. Although I am not sad to say boy bye to 2024, I know this year will require nimbleness, starting with this month. Here’s the dirt.

January begins on a great note when Venus moves into Pisces on the 2nd. Venus loves being here because she is exalted in the sign of the Fish. That means it’s the best placement. Venus in Pisces paints the cosmos with a brush of compassion and universal love. Hearts can connect in meaningful ways, and relationships can deepen. Sweet? Yes. It’s here until February 4th, when it heads into tempestuous Aries.

Cue the waterworks: Mars retrograde steps back into Cancer on the 6th, putting a wet blanket on action. Instead of go, go, go – it’s slow, slow, slow! Feelings spur actions, which could be good or not, depending on the emotional motive. It’s crucial to keep regulated if you want to avoid popping off at the wrong time. This transit can also produce a feeling of “meh.” Why bother when you’d rather take a nap? While there is nothing wrong with that vibe, it could get in the way of progress. 

Thankfully, practical thinking is in once Mercury waltzes into Capricorn on the 8th. This transit of Mercury is grounded, down-to-earth, and organized. You can find reasonable solutions, no matter what the problem may be. Tap in and let your reliable side take the wheel!

Tie up loose domestic ends with a Full Moon in Cancer on the 13th. It’s the ideal day for decluttering your nest. Tidy up, put the tree away, and take out the trash. It’s also a fantastic lunation for squashing family beefs. Put those hard feelings aside, and let the healing begin!

The Sun will be in Aquarius from the 19th through February 18th. The focus shifts to community, innovation, technology, and social justice during this period. It’s time for progress – even if it seems impossible. Look for what you can do to take care of others. All for one and one for all!

Mercury heads into Aquarius on the 27th. After a short stint in pragmatic Capricorn, this transit of Mercury is ready for the future! Look ahead, seek the unusual, think in unorthodox ways, and above all, do not follow conventional wisdom. Aquarius prefers to take the weird route…and now we can explore that vibe until February 14th.

More Aquarius goodness! The New Moon in Aquarius on the 29th opens the door for new ideas, scientific advances, and shared power. A new way is emerging, but it may take a bit before it comes together. Idealism is high on this day – so don’t give up on the future. It’s still being written! This lunation is super duper for setting intentions on technology, social justice, friendship, and community. 

Lastly, Uranus stations direct on the 30th. If you have been chomping at the bit for a change but felt like nothing was moving, everything is about to shift. Let your revolution begin!

Annnndddd here’s your personal monthly horoscopes:

Gemini: The year begins on a slow note, dear Gemini. Jupiter is still retrograde in your sign, which might have a limiting effect on your mood or activity. However, your sparkle is not dull – once Venus drifts into your reputation house on the 2nd, you will the brightest star in the zodiac. This indicates a career glow-up and a time when the public loves you. A financial clean up is possible when Mars steps back into Cancer on the 6th. Did you blow past your holiday budget? You’ll have plenty of time to redo your budget. Focus on saving, and you’ll be secure by spring. New ideas for managing your money kick in when your ruler, Mercury, joins the Sun on the 8th. Schedule an appointment with your financial advisor before the 19th – and you’ll be set for the rest of the year. The Full Moon on the 13th brings a solution to a financial conundrum. It could be you pay off a credit card or find a smarter way to manage your resources. On the 19th, the Sun enters your travel zone, followed by Mercury on the 27th.

Listen to your instincts, and you’ll make the right decisions in every situation.

Cancer: Relationships undergo a transformation this month, dear Cancer. The Sun adds a dynamic energy to all of your partnerships, creating the possibility of intense interactions. For healthy relationships, this could elevate passion. If you are involved in a “situationship,” the issues will be hard to ignore.
