Your January Horoscope Is Here, And Mercury And Venus Are Both Going Retrograde

It’s a brand new year and, with that, you’ve got some big changes up ahead. A huge theme for this month: Are you doing what you really want to do? If not, it’s time to make some changes. (Maybe that's the new year's resolution inspo you've been searching for!)

Venus is retrograde in Capricorn pretty much all month, making you wonder what kind of career you want, where you want to spend your time, and what you value. They're important questions, so don't rush your answers. You've got all January to get on track to becoming the shiny, new, 2022 version of yourself.

While you're mulling all that over, the new moon in Capricorn on the 2nd and Mercury retrograde on the 14th pushes you to try to figure out what’s most meaningful to you in life. Like, would you rather have a swanky apartment while working a job that feels meh or live someplace decent while doing what you really love?

Heads up: The sun goes into Aquarius on the 19th (marking the start of Aquarius season!), which will stir up all kinds of intellectual energy—and that pushes you to be smart about the changes you want to make.

Of course, that’s not all that’s happening in January. Here's what else is in store for your zodiac sign this month, according to Donna Page, a professional astrologer with a graduate degree in counseling psychology.
