Love
Your year in love kicks off with Venus, your ruling planet, moving into productive Capricorn on January 23, motivating you to find the beauty in all things outside your usual comfort zone. While you like to stick to what’s tried and true, you’ll be starting the year off seeking pleasure in different people, places, and things. By the full moon in Virgo on February 24, your desire for a practical (and stable) love affair will come into sharp focus. Regardless of their longevity, you approach all of your relationships through the same logical lens. During this full moon, you’ll be analyzing the dynamics you’re a part of to ensure that they’re actually serving you.
You’ll fully embrace a more serious perspective in your relationships by the time Venus and Saturn meet in Pisces on March 21, encouraging you to acknowledge the realities of your social life. While you’ll still be looking for the potential in connections, it’ll be impossible to ignore where some of your dynamics may fall short. Don’t allow this to fully discourage you from pursuing the community you imagined! Just be more selective about who you’re investing in.
Your current romantic relationship reaches a turning point during the full moon in Scorpio on April 23. Vulnerability in love has always been a non-negotiable for you, so if you feel like your significant other is moving with too much caution, it may be time to address the issue head-on. The intimacy you crave requires radical honesty, but if you’re unable to open up, it could indicate that you may not feel safe with that person. Decide whether or not you’re operating from a place of fear or a place of protection. Luckily, any issues you’ve had deepening your bonds will be a thing of the past as Venus bonds with Jupiter in Taurus on May 23. Building upon intentional dynamics will be effortless today, and you’ll finally feel relaxed and reassured by a special someone. While the beginning of the year appeared rocky for your love life, the people you’re surrounding yourself with now are trustworthy and here to stay.
As Venus shifts into Cancer on June 17, you’ll feel compelled to nurture your loved ones by acknowledging their romantic needs and desires. However, as Mars and Uranus harmonize in Taurus on July 15, you’ll feel the sudden urge to prioritize your independence and autonomy. You find plenty of comfort in your connections, but your need for space to prioritize yourself may rear its head today. Then, as Mercury retrograde in Virgo rolls around on August 4, you’ll begin to briefly re-assess the company you keep to ensure you get what you need from these bonds. With Venus shifting into Virgo the same day, you’ll be much more selective when it comes to the pleasures and joys you indulge in. While this is an auspicious time for a summer fling, be mindful of being overly critical of other people’s shortcomings. This doesn’t mean lowering your standards, but try to remember that nobody’s perfect.
As the Virgo new moon culminates on September 2, you’ll put some of these apprehensions behind you. Although your relationships may not be without flaws, they can still satisfy you. You’ll engage in serious conversations with your love interests once Mercury shifts into Scorpio on October 13, inviting you to get a little vulnerable. You like to move slowly in love, but this transit encourages you to say what’s on your mind, no matter how intense these thoughts seem. By November 1, the new moon in Scorpio invites new opportunities for stimulating romances into your life that allow you to show all sides of your emotions. This could signify a new chapter in your current relationship or an opportunity to connect with someone new altogether. Your year in love ends with a new moon in Sagittarius on December 1, inspiring you to consider your current romantic affair’s future. You’ve never been afraid to go the distance with someone, and today, you’ll be considering how you can achieve more intimacy and mutual support in your connections. Now that you’ve reimagined what you want for your love affairs, you can pursue them fully. While you may still be moving with caution, you’ve learned so much about how to cultivate genuine connections this year!
Money
Your year in money kicks off on January 27, as the Aquarius sun has a tense, but dynamic square-off with Jupiter in Taurus. During this transit, you’re inspired to pursue new career ventures that align with your dreams and ambitions. With this newfound confidence, you’ll feel capable of taking risks that will place you in the spotlight. By February 9, the Aquarius new moon will support your new intentions for your business ventures, allowing you to carve out a unique space for yourself and your viewpoints. You’ll feel inspired to try things that have the potential to pay off in the long run, so feel free to take risks! Stick to your guns, and don’t let naysayers tell you no.
Any obstacles you’ve been up against in your career will likely reach their turning point on February 22, as Venus joins forces with Mars in Aquarius. The union between these two planets sparks creativity, passion, and a desire to think outside the box in your career field. Any barriers you face now will be due to those who may not yet understand your vision, but that won’t stop you from continuing to shake the table! Showcase your opinions and views even if it makes skeptics uncomfortable. What matters most now is that you’re bringing these concepts to light. The Pisces new moon on March 10 supports your vision and asks that you picture your version of success. Don’t worry too much about taking dramatic action today, but instead, let your mind wander to what your ideal life could look like. It’s not as far-fetched as it may seem!
On April 20, Jupiter will connect with Uranus in Taurus, sparking heightened inspiration and opportunities to embark on long-term ambitions. You’re in the driver’s seat now, so you won’t have to worry about anyone standing in the way of you actualizing your dreams. In a perfect world, you’ve secured the means to live a life full of pleasure and satisfaction in your tangible realm, and this transit will support you in jumpstarting these efforts. By the time the Sagittarius full moon culminates on May 23, you’ll be getting rid of any debts or dues standing in the way of reaching your ultimate goal – financial freedom. While you may have to briefly re-assess your assets, a weight will be lifted off of your shoulders as you take care of any outstanding balances.
As Jupiter shifts into Gemini on May 25, any financial woes you’ve grappled with will be behind you as you explore the opportunities your resources offer you. Your perspective toward your assets is shifting now, and with a new perspective comes new opportunities. In fact, during the Gemini new moon on June 6, you’ll begin a new financial venture that supports your desire for multiple income streams. Things start to kick into overdrive once Mars joins up with Jupiter in Gemini on August 14, speeding up the growth that’s begun to take place in your bank account. Just be mindful of spreading your resources too thin now – you don’t want to get ahead of yourself. While investing in various things has benefits, you want to ensure you’re not making decisions without thinking them through. By September 2, uncertainty around your current investments may arise. Are you losing track of what you’re putting money toward? If so, it may be time to pause and evaluate your current monetary goals.
You’ll be inclined to do a complete financial re-evaluation as Jupiter stations retrograde in Gemini on October 9, offering you a chance to temporarily tighten up your budget. You’ll continue to re-evaluate your spending once Mercury stations retrograde in Sagittarius on November 25 to ensure that you’re investing your time, money, and energy wisely. As the full moon in Gemini peaks on December 15, you’ll have a much clearer idea of how to proceed with your financial pursuits. After a year full of monetary growth, you’ll find that next year, you’ll be able to see your resources truly begin to work in your favor!
Magic
As the Capricorn new moon dazzles the sky on January 11, you’ll be fully concentrating on moving your hopes, dreams, and aspirations forward. You’ve never been afraid of hard work, even when it comes to actualizing aspirations that have little to do with your career. You’re inspired to take a new study, venture, or spiritual pursuit more seriously or look for the true motivation behind your New Year’s resolutions. Once Venus, your ruling planet, meets Pluto in Aquarius on February 17, your desire for freedom and liberation reaches a pivotal turning point. If you’ve been waiting for the right time to take a leap of faith, now is the time to do so! However, as Venus and Saturn link up in Pisces by March 21, you’re met with some important realities surrounding your new perspectives and spiritual outlooks.
Luckily, you’ll have some time to focus solely on your changing mindset before the April 8 Aries solar eclipse prompts you to temporarily retreat in order to recharge. It may be time to rid yourself of any habits or practices that are rooted in pride or ego – they’re only standing in the way of true enlightenment and introspection. Enjoy your solitude now because by the time Venus connects with Jupiter in Taurus on May 23, you’ll be actively expanding upon lucky connections and kinships that have the potential to evolve into something fruitful and long-lasting. Pay attention to the alliances you form today. You’ll be met with increased hope and optimism regarding your solo ventures, allowing you the courage to pursue the comfort and security you crave.
During the Capricorn full moon on June 21, you’ll be motivated to explore life entirely outside of your comfort zone. Take some time off, and allow yourself to escape from your daily routine. There’s a truth that you’re embracing now, and it’s liberating you from any outdated or limiting beliefs and views. Things begin to peak in this area once again as another Capricorn full moon illuminates on July 21. With two full moons taking place in this productive earth sign, you’ll realize many goals and aspirations that best align you with your version of success. The useful vibes continue on August 7, as Venus links up with Mercury retrograde in Virgo. On this day, you’ll be more concerned with how you can better prioritize your personal joy rather than stressing over your to-do list. You’ll be setting intentions around how to better enjoy yourself during the Virgo new moon on September 2, reminding you not to take yourself so seriously! Responsibilities aside, life is meant to be enjoyed. Make time for your pleasure today.
Pluto will station direct in Capricorn on October 11, re-activating many of the shifts in your views and beliefs you’ve been embracing over the past 16 years! Since this is Pluto’s final time stationing direct in this sign before moving into Aquarius, expect some pivotal shifts regarding what you want out of life. You’ll now have the courage to transform your life in monumental ways, encouraging you to leave the outdated parts of your identity behind. You’ll be reeling from your adventures during the Aries full moon on October 17, prompting you to reconsider some of your ambitions before initiating them. You may be made aware of the obstacles that are preventing you from reaching your goals, or you could recover from burnout after a very active and exceptional summer. This day’s energy might feel a bit restless, so if you’re itching to make some moves, engage in physical activity that allows you to work through any stagnant energy in your body.
By the time the Taurus full moon unfolds on November 15, you’ll reach another turning point in your personal journey, sparking an a-ha moment around what you need to feel comfortable, supported, and satisfied. If you’ve felt disconnected from your true desires, expect this full moon to serve as a gentle reminder. As your year in magic comes to an end, the Capricorn new moon on December 30 marks the beginning of a new, long-term journey that promises to broaden your horizons. You’ve been pushed out of your comfort zone this year, and on this day, you’ll be excited to set forth on future discoveries that continue to inspire and enlighten you.
