Aries Monthly Horoscope

Time for a crew review? The January 29 Aquarius new moon—the first new moon of 2025—delivers a wave of fresh-start energy to your eleventh house of teamwork and technology. Look around and see who’s pulling their weight and lending inspiration and who’s dragging others down with a lackluster attitude. Have an honest talk about the future and your expectations. It may be easier to part ways, if you frame it as moving forward into a new era.

Today also marks the Lunar New Year, which always falls at the Aquarius new moon. Say farewell to the intense Year of the Wood Dragon and glide into the sensual and strategic Year of the Wood Snake. The Dragon is associated with assertive and combative Mars (the ruling planet of Aries!), while the Snake is linked to beautifying Venus, marking a shift from yang to yin energy. 

It’s a year to be stealthy and strategic, rather than outwardly fierce and fire-breathing like the Dragon. But that doesn’t mean you should stop pursuing the goals you began in February 2024. Quite the opposite! The quest to grow, expand and build that accompanies a two-year Wood period will continue until February 16, 2026. Don’t stop now!

Uranus snaps out of its five-month retrograde (in Taurus) on January 30

On January 30, financial plateaus start turning into peaks. Revolutionary Uranus ends a five-month retrograde through Taurus and your money zone that began on September 1, 2024. If your income’s been erratic or some part of your work has been in stop-and-go motion, things should start to pick up speed. New sources of income or freelance opportunities could pop up. 

With tech-savvy Uranus involved, you might explore the world of cryptocurrency, if you’re not already hanging out there. Or maybe you’ll dive into developments in the world of AI (again, if you’re not already leading the charge there as a pioneering Aries). Whatever the case, this is a great time to let technological development amplify your earning powers and make life more efficient. Bonus: More free time to invent and share your trailblazing ideas!
