Happy 2021, Aries love! Now that 2020 is officially behind us (TG), we push into the New Year with hope, energy, and enthusiasm. In fact, there’s so much brewing in January that there isn't much time to catch your breath—you’ve got work to do, darling! 2021 kicks off with a New Moon in Capricorn on January 13, fusing your vibrant ego (represented by the Sun) with your emotional needs (symbolized by the Moon). This lunation activates your career zone, inspiring you to take your ambitions to the next level. But does that mean a promotion? Raise? Or maybe even…a new job? That’s right, love: The times, they are a-changin'…but you’re a brave and enterprising Ram. Don’t worry—you got this!
On January 17, Jupiter and Uranus will form a powerful 90o angle for the first time in seven years. Astrologers refer to this configuration as a “square”—a hard aspect notorious for fueling friction. But squares are also about motion and under this sky, you’ll be prompted to transform your relationship with resources, aka cash. Does your budget include monthly charitable donations? If not, consider new ways you can add some activism to your day-to-day life: Whether you’re setting up direct deposit with your fave non-profit, sending cash to a friend in need, or allocating a few hours each week to call your representatives, this is an excellent time to redefine what it means to lend a helping hand. We love to see it!
Aquarius season begins on January 19, when the Sun glides into this humanitarian air sign. For the next few weeks, don’t be surprised if you end up going from aspiring CEO to rebel. Suddenly, you’re all about the revolution! During Aquarius season, you’ll be inspired to use your influence to propel cataclysmic social change. Whether you’re spearheading a virtual campaign or hitting the streets with a hand-decorated face mask and freshly painted picket sign, this is your moment to champion the causes that matter. It’s cool to care!
Next, a Full Moon in Leo on January 28 lights up the area of your chart associated with creativity, passion, and love. Beneath this electric sky, you’ll feel an unexpected (but well-deserved) surge in confidence. You were born to shine and—thanks to the Full Moon—you’re absolutely glowing! This may signal exciting romantic opportunities…but be careful, Aries. Just two days later, on January 30, Mercury flips backwards for the first time in 2021. And while Mercury Retrograde isn’t the cause of life-changing disasters (its consequences are more annoying and short-term), it’s notorious for bringing exes back in the fold. But Aries, there's no reason to look backwards when the sky’s the limit. Onward and upward or bust!
