While the start of a new year can be exciting, it’s often also stressful. When the sun enters Aquarius on Saturday, January 20, your theme is taking care of yourself. It’s okay if you feel like leaning into your introverted side. There’s a decent chance that work is taking up a tremendous amount of energy at the moment, and it’s a shame to feel burnt out the first month of the year. Earth signs like you tend to be set in their ways. However, your mutable nature makes you better at adopting new habits than you may realize. When Pluto, the planet of death and rebirth, aka makeovers, joins the sun in Aquarius and your 6th House of Health on Saturday, January 20, don’t abandon the wellness routines you started during the new moon earlier this month. Definitely try to get as much sleep as possible.
When Venus, ruler of love, joins Mars and Mercury in your 5th House of Pleasure on Tuesday, January 23, you’re more attractive than ever. Like, seriously, beware of your magnetism around this time. If you’re in a relationship that’s already on the rocks, don’t be shocked if you find yourself flirting with others or even jumping into something new before you end your current situationship. If you’re not monogamous, of course, enjoy, but people in all relationship formats should prepare for attention. Your Virgo horoscope is calling it here and now — when the sky lights up with a full moon in cocky Leo on Thursday, January 25, your phone will also light up with exes in your DMs (and Mercury isn’t even retrograde!) and new matches on your dating apps. Yes, current partners will also be keenly aware of how hot you are, too. You can be shy, Virgo, and that’s okay. But when the wildcard Uranus goes direct on Friday, January 26, challenge yourself to embrace the attention (as long as it’s desired) and try something new, whether it’s a first date with someone new or continuing the kink you discovered earlier in the month with a current partner. Have fun, and get ready for Valentine’s Day next month.
