From January 20th – February 18th, we are in the world of the Water-Bearer. Ruled by Uranus, the planet of rebellion and innovation, this month encourages us to break free of old patterns and boundaries, grow expansively, and switch things up. The energy of Aquarius, known as idealistic, allows us to move further into this new year with a sense of hope and action.

 

We enter the season just having come out of retrogrades in both Mercury and Mars; so seeds planted a while back may find a way to grow more directly. The January 21st new moon in Aquarius marks a fresh start and the following day, Uranus stations direct, solidifying changes. On February 5th, we get a full moon in Leo, giving our ideas a chance to radiate more brightly.  

 

Aquarius is represented by the Water-Bearer, representing how Aquarians can carry resources for the collective. This means food vibes this season are mutable, founded on being un-fixed. Disrupt your morning routine. Try something you’ve always thought you didn’t like. Eat with a purpose. To keep your cup half full while experimenting, make sure to hydrate. 


This Scorpio season your ability to change is getting pushed to the limit. The planet of daring and action, Mars, is back in his home sign of Scorpio and he’s feeling spicy. Mars is the planetary ruler of the sign Scorpio; this stationing is like a warrior returning home to a well-stocked armory. There’s a delicate balance between pushing the limits and pushing boundaries. With a lunar eclipse—a force of dramatic, yet gradual change that you can look back on as turning points—capping things off at the end of the season, it’s all about knowing when to step into your power and when to step back out of it. The sun’s journey through the more-pressurized-than-usual depths of Scorpio this season sets the stage for re-evaluating your relationships this winter.

So much of the way you operate can be based on habit and routine. While this is grounding, what could happen if you switched things up a little bit? See what it feels like to dream up new rituals and try them out.
