January 2020 Aquarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

January 2020

Overview.

The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness

Until January 10th:

The Sun continues to put a spotlight on your solar eleventh house. During this cycle, you are planting seeds for the future, dreaming up plans that you might begin to develop two months down the road, if they still seem viable then. You are more aware of the benefits of networking, and you might find some great ideas through others now. You might be working in a team now.

You could be questioning some of the rules you have been living by and you could be ready to try something totally new. You are more attracted to that which is progressive or unconventional during this cycle.

From January 10th forward:

The Sun travels through your twelfth house now, marking a time of retreat and regeneration. Think about the attachments you have--to things, people, and routines--and consider which ones are dragging you down. This is a time when competitive energies and the ego are on a bit of a break.

It's not the time to push ahead with brand new projects. Rather, it's a time of reflection, dreaming, and recharging your batteries. Situations that have naturally outgrown their usefulness in your life can now be put behind you. Endings of natural cycles may be part of the picture at this time of year. Your energy is largely applied to personal and private affairs now. Your disposition is introspective. Rest and reflect, and prepare for a more outgoing cycle when the Sun moves into your first house.

Eclipses

A Lunar Eclipse occurs on January 10th:

A general rule of thumb regarding eclipses is to avoid major decision-making in the week before and after an eclipse. This is because new information that could change our perspective often is revealed in the week after the eclipse. There is absolutely no need to suspend projects already in progress. Essentially, it's better to take in right now--to observe and get in touch with feelings.

This Lunar Eclipse stimulates your solar sixth house. Surprises surrounding work, working relationships, daily routines, or health issues are in store. Something that has been "in hiding" or brewing under the surface of things comes to light, or there is a significant fruition or culmination. Flaws come to light and demand a clean-up. This could manifest as, for example, a work project coming to an end or bearing fruit, a surprising announcement on the job, a circumstance that calls for you to support a co-worker, a flurry of activity prompted by the demands of work or for your services, a surprising health matter, and other such possibilities. You can use this surge of emotional energy to make positive changes to your routines. Do something to improve your work conditions if they are annoying you--even if it's a small act of kindness with a co-worker or bringing in something to brighten up your desk or office. Get going on your exercise or nutrition program that you've been toying with in your mind.

Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort

Until January 4th:

Venus continues to transit through your solar twelfth house now. The twelfth house is a sector of endings, privacy, and mental health, and with Venus here, it's possible that you are reviewing your feelings for someone, or enjoying a more private love life for the time being. You may not be open with your affections for whatever reason now, and this shouldn't be a problem—it may be difficult to articulate, verbalize, or intellectualize your feelings for the time being. Doing some soul-searching as well as an enhanced ability to perceive other dimensions in love can lead you to a deeper understanding of your own love needs and possibly of a love relationship. Love might involve some form of sacrifice or simply a lot of giving and lending of support as opposed to receiving during this cycle.

From January 5-29:

You could find it hard to deny yourself much of anything during this cycle! This is a time when you naturally let loose your softer, receptive side. Romantic matters, as well as pleasure-seeking activities, come to the fore now. You are more likely to pay closer attention to your physical appearance and mannerisms, aiming to improve and enhance your attractiveness. Others find you especially agreeable and cooperative. You are more gracious, well-behaved (superficial if you are not careful!), and likable now. Take advantage! It's a time when you turn heads, and it's also a period for extra attention to pleasures, pampering, and enjoyment.

From January 30th forward:

Venus transits your solar second house and, as the natural ruler of the second house, Venus feels right "at home" here. This is a rather content position for Venus, although there can be some restlessness when it comes to money and spending it—you are more inclined to want more things around you! Financial security and enjoyment of the good things in life are important to you, although you also value simple pleasures. The ability to relate well with others might enhance your own personal finances during this period. You may find yourself in a position in which there is a blending of financial matters with social or public affairs. This is a stable position for love matters and close relationships. You value those who make you feel comfortable, and familiarity is more important to you than someone new during this cycle.

Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation

Until January 10th:

Mercury continues to journey through your solar eleventh house. This is a time when conversations with friends and various networking activities are much appreciated and offer learning experiences. Your ideas just now are especially progressive and unconventional, as you are questioning the rules you typically live by and entertaining some wild ideas.

Not all of these ideas are necessarily going to last or lead to new projects, but it's a time of dreaming up new possibilities and new possible solutions to problems. You are especially interested in spending time with people who are like-minded. Social interactions are more frequent, light, and fun during this cycle.

From January 10-28:

Your mind is focused on private matters and past issues while Mercury transits the twelfth house of your solar chart. This is a time when you are least likely to speak out of turn or to express yourself freely. You're searching behind the curtain, and examining the past for answers.

This is a good time for research, quiet contemplation, and meditation; but do avoid getting dragged down by issues that have outgrown their worth and purpose. Examining the past in order to improve the future is certainly worthwhile, as long as you don't waste your energy on guilt. Creative endeavors could prosper now, particularly those that draw upon the emotions or that require creative visualization skills, such as poetry, art, acting, and other such activities.

You are likely to require a certain amount of solitude in order to get your thoughts together or to be mentally productive. You are less likely to chat indiscriminately during this transit, and tend to be a little secretive or tight-lipped for the time being. This may be important, in fact, because this position of Mercury is sometimes associated with the uncovering of secrets, so discretion may be in order.

From January 28th forward:

With Mercury in your solar first house, you are most inclined to speak up about matters that you previously were only mulling over. Your disposition is more intellectual than usual now, and self-expression comes easily. You are sharper than usual--more observant, and more inclined to "live in the head". Relationships with siblings, neighbors, classmates, and casual friends may become more prominent in your life now.

It is likely that you will initiate discussions during this period, evaluate your appearance and the impact you have on those around you, and make contact with others rather than stay chained to any one place or activity.

This is the time to be direct and to communicate your needs and interests. You are more inclined to talk about yourself and your personal past now. This may also be a restless time when it is difficult to turn the thinking process off when it would be better to relax! It is an especially fruitful time for any endeavor that requires dealing with words, ideas, and facts and figures.

Your demeanor is more youthful, perhaps mischievous, light-hearted, and non-threatening so that others may be more inclined to turn to you for advice or pleasant conversation. Using the power of words to attract what you want or to further your interests works best for you now.

Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage

All month:

Mars continues to energize your solar tenth house now. You bring much energy, enthusiasm, and drive to your career or to directing activities in your life during this cycle. You may be quite competitive during this period, preferring to achieve and accomplish things on your own. This attitude can, in some cases, be seen by others as an instigating or otherwise offensive energy, so be aware of that possibility.

This is a strong time for directly pursuing your goals, and, if you need that extra push or oomph to get a plan going, particularly a professional one, or to assert your desires, then this is the time. You are self-motivated, and your enthusiasm can be harnessed if you so choose.

Overview Horoscope:

Horoscope Overview for January 2020 for Aquarius:

There is much activity in your privacy sector this month, dear Aquarius, signaling a need to rest, reflect, and detox. However, Mars moves into your social sector, boosting your activities and engagement with others, and Venus in your sign keeps you popular and involved. Mercury moves into Aquarius on the 16th and then the Sun on the 20th, and you're coming out of your shell.

Around the time of the Lunar Eclipse on the 10th, you receive a strong push toward improving your health, routines, or work. You might recognize that you’ve been so caught up in personal matters that you've neglected some elements of self-care, and now is the time of an epiphany, pushing you forward. It's essential to embrace the need to take better care of the systems in your life, including your physical well-being. Developing healthier habits can be part of this.

A Saturn-Pluto alignment prompts you to handle a matter behind the scenes or in the background of your life. Your inner world, dreams, attitude toward the past, and dealings with end cycles can go through a reworking, regenesis, and transformation. You may be cutting out something that has kept you weighed down or in limbo. Fortunately, you have some beautiful transits with you for rebuilding in the coming months. For now, you can be super-motivated to simplify, downsize, or cut out harmful elements from your life.

Mars moves into your solar eleventh house from the 3rd forward, and this is a time when your innovative and enterprising qualities are in full play and perhaps acknowledged by others. There is more natural energy with you for moving your plans forward. This cycle may bring teamwork into stronger focus, and it can also stimulate a desire to oversee and organize ambitious projects. It can be a busy period when your social life may be more demanding, and it can also be a time when you are especially motivated to create new long-term plans. In previous weeks while Mars was transiting your solar tenth house, there may have been quite a bit of pressure to push yourself with work or responsibilities, and now this pressure tends to subside considerably. Still, if there have been challenging energies with friends brewing under the surface of things, it can be time to clear the air.

January is a popular month for you when others see you in a most favorable light, even if you're a little slow to engage fully, blossoming as the month advances. The New Moon in your sign on the 24th offers a chance for a fresh start--it's a time for reinventing yourself if you want to make a change to your personal presentation.
