Horoscope for January 2018 for Aquarius

The month of January begins with a full moon in Cancer on the 1st. This moon reflects the feminine essence of your spirit and emotions. You especially may feel extremely sensitive and out of balance today. It is a great time to meditate and be outside in nature. Instead of committing yourself to plans and parties, try to spend some alone time today. You need to relax and unwind!

Venus begins the month in your 12th house of the subconscious. This is a challenging aspect, because the 12th house can often embody our hidden feelings that can cause suffering and sadness. Whatever negative emotions you hold about love and relationships will arise when Venus enters this sector. The Universe is not trying to make you feel bad, and it only wants you to face your fears so you can overcome them. You might have deep secrets about someone you love, used to love, or a relationship that has caused you pain. It is time now to reflect on how these feelings hold you back, so you can confront them and let them go. The stars have your back, dear Aquarius! You can do the hard work necessary to unburden your subconscious heart and mind. On the 17th, you will be happy, because Venus finally shifts into your 1st house in your sign! Venus here will make you feel loved, whole, and free. You will finally channel your happiness through relationships, and everyone around you will notice how radiant you are. You might also focus a lot on your outer appearance, and this can be a good time to explore something new in fashion, makeup, or anything that adds to your physical beauty. If you are in a relationship, Venus in this house will make your partner very attracted to you, and you are certain to have fun in the bedroom! If you are single, you may meet a lot of potential partners this month as well.

Mercury begins in your 11th house of friendships. You are sure to be quite talkative amongst groups of friends, and you might become the center of attention from time to time! Mercury's communication skills also enable you to be a mediator between people with differing opinions, as you are quickly able to point out both arguments and concentrate on how you can come to a compromise. On the 11th, Mercury enters your 12th house of the subconscious. This is an excellent alignment for you, curious Aquarius, as you can finally understand the deeper parts of your brilliant mind. You will be able to articulate exactly how you feel and why, and you will also be able to decode any confusing thoughts, ideas, or opinions you have about yourself in relation to the Universe. You might be drawn to philosophizing about what the Universe is, what you are, and why you are here. The perfect day for you might be discussing the complexities of life with a dear friend over a cup of tea. Mercury stimulates your intellectual mind, and the 12th house rules the deepest part of your conscious.

Mars has been in Scorpio, your 10th house, since last month, and he will remain here until the 26th of January. Mars in your 10th house gives you a ton of power in your professional sector. You will feel like a total rockstar at work! His aggressive, action-taking nature will help you get the job done with more energy than ever before. Mars demands attention, even if you are not consciously aware of it. People around you will notice how hard you are working towards your goals, and how nothing will stop you from achieving your dreams and accomplishments. This house also rules recognition, and you are sure to get praise from your supervisors, and may even be up for a promotion this month. On the other hand, Mars can sometimes make people annoyed and agitated, so you might feel extra feisty if you do have confrontations or issues with coworkers and bosses. Make sure that you do not let Mars' fiery temper get the best of you in challenging situations. Instead, see if you can complete projects on your own, or at least with colleagues that you get along with.

The Sun begins in your 12th house of the subconscious. This is quite a lovely alignment for you. You will feel very generous, kind, and give to others. You might feel a deep passion for making the world a better place, and may be inspired to help humanity in some way. Use this opportunity to do charity work, volunteer, or give back to your community in some way. When the Sun is in this alignment, you feel the best when you are generous and thinking about others. This ends the zodiac house cycle, and the Sun will transition into your 1st house in your sign on the 19th. Happy birthday, Aquarius! You have a birthday coming up soon, and the Universe totally wants to celebrate with you! When the Sun enters your house, people around you notice how you glow. There is something different about you, and everyone wants to know what your secret is!

Saturn remains in your 12th house of the subconscious until 2020. Just like how the Sun influences your 12th house, Saturn does much of the same. You are generous, open-minded, and compassionate in this alignment. Your focus over the next three years will be how you can best serve others through the highest good. This is deeply connected to your spiritual self, which you will be developing during this time as well. You may find faith, guidance, or at least a muse that will inspire you to be the best person in this life that you can be. Saturn teaches you the lesson here that while you are not responsible for society's suffering, you can do your part to alleviate this in your own way. The Universe believes in your to help guide others to service and compassion as well.
