My, my, my—would you look at that? A brand new year! And isn't she a beaut…no doubt 2021 is going to be truly lovely! (After the sh*tstorm that was 2020, 2021 better be fucking incredible.) Of course, you still may be in the honeymoon phase for the first few weeks of the New Year, but with planets aligning in happy harmony, you’re feeling hopeful and optimistic! Rejoice!

First up, a New Moon in Capricorn blankets the sky on January 13, illuminating the area of your chart associated with peers, colleagues, classmates, and your local community. Don’t be surprised if you start receiving lots of messages during this lunation…perhaps too many messages. Why is everyone reaching out to you? What’s going on? Is this a set-up? Are you in trouble? Before you start writing your own crime drama, maybe it's time *you* asked a few questions! (Ooh, plot twist!). When the Moon is its mysterious shadow phase, you may not have all the information quite yet, so there’s no reason to jump to conclusions. This narrative definitely will need time to unfold.

Then, on January 17, expansive Jupiter links up with revolutionary Uranus, forming a powerful alignment that hasn’t occurred since 2014. For you, this electric connection might feel a bit…overwhelming. As a fish, you tend to go with the flow—but the current might be a little too intense. You're exhausted, so why aren't you giving yourself permission to rest? With Jupiter and Uranus working overtime, it will be extremely important you listen to your body—this isn’t just about indulging, it’s about honoring your intuition. So go ahead and take a nap! You deserve it, mermaid babe!

Aquarius season begins on January 19, as the Sun slides into this progressive zodiac sign, illuminating the area of your chart associated with psychic powers. You’ll be receiving lots of important clues in your dreams, so be sure to keep a journal close to your bed. At first, things may seem a bit abstract, but on January 28, the Full Moon in Leo will electrify the sky, helping you see everything clearly. Lots of important information will be revealed during this lunation, so don’t be surprised if many of your long-term curiosities are suddenly clarified. Yes, it’s a lot to take in—but with 2021 just getting started, it’s actually better to receive all the critical information upfront. That way, you’ll know exactly how to move forward.

Finally, the month ends with Mercury flipping backwards, beginning its notorious retrograde cycle on January 30. Through February 20, be extra careful signing contracts or solidifying deals—you don’t want to accidentally commit to an undesirable agreement. Likewise, be sure to triple-check absolutely everything and, when in doubt, ask for expert advice. You’re an easy going sea-creature, but when it comes to commitments, precision is absolutely essential. Don’t worry, Pisces, you got this! See you in February!

Happy New Year! You deserve some astro merch:
