On Sunday, January 19th, the Sun enters Aquarius, kicking off Aquarius season. The next few weeks will emphasize the importance of self-care. Get enough sleep while the Sun is in Aquarius. Later this spring (Saturday, March 1st to Saturday, April 12th), Venus will be retrograde. It is believed that when she does so, it is not the best time to make major changes to her appearance, such as changing her hair color. But now that it’s Aquarius season, it’s the perfect time to enjoy a makeover.
You’ll be feeling creative inspiration to change your appearance in late January, when your ruler Mercury enters Aquarius on Monday, January 27th. Mercury is all about planning, so think carefully about what you want before you make any major changes to your appearance. The best day to schedule a beauty appointment is Wednesday, January 29th, with the new moon in Aquarius affecting your 6th house. This day also marks the Lunar New Year, which heralds the arrival of the Year of the Snake.
A spiritual breakthrough is likely to occur now that Uranus is direct.
A major astrological event arrives on Thursday, January 30th, when Uranus, the rebel of the zodiac, goes direct into Taurus and your ninth house of philosophy. A spiritual breakthrough is likely to occur now that Uranus is direct. You may find yourself drawn to things that are outside of your comfort zone. If you regularly go to church, you may feel called to work with tarot. Also, if you normally choose witchcraft but find yourself drawn to traditional forms of worship, it’s okay to respect that. Please enjoy this month as well. See you in February.
