This month is something of a difficult passage for you, Taurus, with strong outer planet energy serving to take you beyond your present evolutionary stage to a whole 'nother level there, provided that you are willing to go. There are quite a few pulls to your own inner world, to hidden layers of your normal everyday psyche, and to instinct and intuition over conscious process. and to a process of discovery and the potential healing of ancient wounds, likely stemming from early childhood, as you make that interior journey. You might find yourself revisiting old issues with partners, reviewing and revising your previous conclusions there and for your relationship dynamic in general, because the retrograde of Mars, your opposite sign’s traditional ruler, continues throughout the January month. Intuitional trickster Uranus is highlighted, so that surprise events and unexpected enlightenment color your entire monthly cycle. On the 6th, the First Quarter Moon in Aries, corresponding to your sector of dream imagination and unconscious process, makes for a powerful juncture, while the Cancer Full Moon of the 13th is another, when transformation affecting your public persona and private realizations calls for better integration within you from top to bottom.

The 2025 year opens in the wake of a Capricorn New Moon that characterizes the first four weeks of the year, which could bring the spotlight to your adventurous side, including ways you’ve explored your beliefs and gone the distance. It may be a time for resolution around visionary projects, relationships or discoveries that have broadened your world view. Legal dealings, broadcasting opportunities, an educational feat or international terrain have perhaps bestowed you with incredible perspective. Take what you now know and understand, bringing those useful insights into your future.
On the 2nd, Venus, your solar chart ruler, moves into Pisces in a harmonious, complimentary position for your zodiac sign. Here this planet shares space with Saturn, Neptune, and on the 3rd and 4th the Moon. This sector represents benefactors, helpful allies, collaborative dreams, and team spirit. Therefore, January may present affiliations and a crew to identify with, inviting you closer to your peers. Consider ways you’re available to those in your network, your audience or followers, and be ready to devote increasing attention to this area of life.
On the 6th, the First Quarter Moon lands in mid-Aries, or your sector of unconscious process, conjuncting Chiron there, and you might feel a bit of a conflict between your conscious beliefs and worldview versus what you feel in the depths of your psyche. On the same day, Mars in retrograde dips back into Cancer, and your sector of communication and learning. You might revisit things that happened earlier in the fall of 2024, There is an additional emphasis on particularly complex or even secret dealings, under the table as it were, with those around you. Because the red planet governs intimate relationships and your twelfth house of catharsis, closure and retreat, where the First Quarter Moon resides, you may be connecting with people in deeper ways that include the topic of recovery, mental health, or unconscious wounding.
The Cancer Full Moon peaks on January 13th, arm-in-arm with Mars, harmonized with both Neptune and Uranus. This lunation could be socially active and personally exciting, highlighting community and perhaps an important tender message that’s ready to be touched on. However, during the Full Moon, Venus is square Jupiter in Gemini. Financial interests, your contribution or principles around your own value may emphasize your ability to get on with friends in society. It may be necessary to balance personal security, your role, and who you are socially, within a crew, organization or entourage.
From the 17th to the 18th, a reality check may transpire about the company you keep and what you bring to a crowd, as Venus conjuncts Saturn in Pisces. Your presence in a group setting may be necessary, with other perspectives apparent.
On the 21st, the Moon’s Last Quarter represents a powerful juncture, with the Moon in your opposite sign of relationships in square with Sun and Pluto at the top of your chart, highlighting your vocational sector. You could encounter conflict between these two areas and the need to find a bridge between them. Perhaps partners will wind up helping you with career choices, after initially opposing them.
Meanwhile, on the weekend of the 25th, Venus is aligned with both Mars and Uranus, suggesting another positive window to commune with your associates in a way that’s personal and meaningful. You may be profoundly aware of your place in a vast social sphere, intimately connected to everything and everyone. If you find you’re overwhelmed, gravitate toward those in your orbit you can speak to honestly and openly.
Aquarius Season begins on the 19th and brings focus to your house of career, prestige, validation, and notoriety. You could be gaining visibility in your vocation, or find there’s eyes on you as a parent, partner or VIP.
On the 29th, the New Moon in Aquarius comes along, conditioning the next thirty days and the February month. This lunation configuration features Mercury in conjunction with Pluto, which is powerful for you in terms of what you truly want to get out of your career and profession. Transformation is in the air. The month that follows could deliver insights about your position, direction, and how you want to show up in public. The Sun also makes a harmonious trine to Jupiter at this time, so ideas about security, earned income and the contribution you make could seem all-important. What’s more, Uranus in your first house stations direct during the New Moon. You could be attuned to a personal breakthrough, with changes and even greater authenticity around your identity, and, simultaneously, you may find impact thanks to your professional life, or as an elder, mother or father figure.
