January 2025 Horoscopes
By: Judi Vitale
It’s cold outside, and that makes January the perfect time to work on pet projects we might have neglected. With Mars and Jupiter in Retrograde, we can pick up from where we started, and we’ll get plenty of support from the executive energy of Capricorn and the inspiration of Aquarius. How might these and some other celestial influences shape your life?
Find your sun sign and read on. This will give you a good idea about what might happen, but if you know your Ascendant and read for that sign, it will be even more accurate.

ARIES (March 21-April 20)
Mars might make you feel like you’ve had enough of hanging out with the fam, but there could be more home-centered activity this month. Enjoy it as much as you can. It’s possible to bury a hatchet that’s been slicing up your clan for some time. Rewards for being extra-nice could arrive in time for the full moon on the 13th.
TAURUS (April 21-May 20)
Could it possibly be that a routine-lover like you is ready to make a work-related change? Even if it’s just changing the direction your desk faces, it could be time to take a fresh perspective on your work life. Around the 19th, start to give yourself credit for the achievements you’ve attained, and make a new start on a new level for the new moon on the 29th.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
Cold weather might chase you away to a more tropical clime, as the sun in Aquarius joins Pluto and the moon in your house of getting away from it all. Your travel bug is sure to make you itch from the 18th through the 20th. If you need to stay put, find something exotic to study, or resolve to make a dream getaway become very real in 2025.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
People who accuse you of being needy don’t understand you very well at all. All you need is just a little bit of the loving attention you give to important people in your life. If your partner and/or your best friend aren’t delivering enough affection, they’ll hear about it. Mars will backslide into your sign on the 6th, giving you the feistiness necessary to speak up.
LEO (July 23-Aug 22)
Work continues to be a focus this month. There could be some new technology that makes your job easier. Or, you might take the initiative and push your work out in ways that truly let you make a big name for yourself. Seek love and intimacy from someone you find comforting around the 13th.
VIRGO (Aug 23-Sep 22u
You might be more than glad to see the end of a hyper-focus on family when Mercury zips out of your house of domestic affairs and zooms into your house of creativity and enjoyment. If you’re a parent, cherish this time when you can enjoy your littles without unwelcome familial interference. Save time for date night with your honey around the 25th. Venus and Mars will make love more than all right that night.
LIBRA (Sep 23-Oct 22)
Friends mean a whole lot to you, and it’s time for you to look for some new ones. You’re developing new ways of expressing yourself, and there’s a creative drive within you that’s not going to remain sublimated much longer. From the 19th on, you should pay attention to the things that make you passionate, and find people who help you to develop your talents.
SCORPIO (Oct 23-Nov 21)
If you’re in a stalemate with a partner, a client, or a close friend, keep formulating your strategy and prepare to move forward at the end of the month. Meanwhile, take stock of what you value most–peace and quiet in your home space. Pluto is in the process of transforming your concept of domestic tranquility. A move, a re-do, or firm family boundaries could become major priorities.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22-Dec 21)
As a high-energy individual, you don’t have much patience for health-related obstacles. At this time of year, it’s important to keep your immune system in top shape. The full moon on the 13th could bring you good news about a health or nutrition-related matter. It’s a great time to pursue goals that will give your body the attention it deserves.
CAPRICORN (Dec 21-Jan 20)
It’s true that romance is something you keep behind closed doors, for the most part, but this, your birthday month, will be different. The full moon will make you want to sing from the rooftops over falling or being in love. Around the 13th, make gestures that let the ones you love know what’s in your heart. And don’t worry. Work is still in the picture. Expect career-related rewards around the 20th.
AQUARIUS (Jan 21-Feb 20)
Winter is a time for reflection, and the sun in Capricorn will help you to remain focused on getting inspiration. Pluto tells you that waiting for something really big to happen in your life requires patience. Around the 29th, the new moon could lead you to a new and exciting path. A friendship or new dating interest could be a sweet distraction, thanks to Jupiter’s expansive influence.
PISCES (Feb 21-March 20)
Your sweetness is legendary, and when Venus graces your sign this month, you’ll be able to use it to your advantage. This will be a welcome addition to your life, because Saturn will still put potential obstacles and confidence-draining thoughts in your mind. Keep your eye on the prize, and remember that you’re in charge of creating the life you want. Neptune will ehlp to expand your vision on the 5th.
