Can you believe that mid-January is already upon us? This week, as we delve further into the energy of 2025, we have some space to reflect on the astrological events already underway. This week’s first and only major astrological shift occurs on the 19th, when the Sun enters Aquarius, ushering in Aquarius season.
This means you have some time to process what has already happened and you can also continue to think about everything that still needs to be resolved from 2024 onwards.
With that freedom in mind… where should your personal focus be? We have consulted with the Tarot about what’s next for you.
Ram
8 of Swords (reverse)
Ram has to step outside their comfort zone, but that’s all easier said than done.
The 8 of Swords indicates that your greatest enemy right now could be… yourself. You have been holding yourself back from achieving real success, perhaps afraid of being in the spotlight or you are insecure about your abilities.
Be that as it may, the reversal of this card adds that you are ready to move beyond these fears and limitations, but it won’t be an overnight process.
Trust yourself, Aries. Be the bold, brave Aries we all know you are!
Taurus
The Hermit (reverse)
Taurusdo you trust yourself?
The Hermit is usually a strong beacon of wisdom and light, but the reversal brings some uncomfortable complications that hinder access to those benefits.
You may suddenly find yourself questioning your own insights, feeling unsure of your judgment, or, on the other hand, finding yourself completely overthinking every little thing.
It is not easy to balance the relationship between ourselves and our minds. Taurus, this week is all about harmonizing that connection again.
Twin
Page with magic wands
Twin has been embracing a lot of fire lately!
You’ve still got that spontaneous, adventurous flair and the Page of Wands stands tall in front of you this week.
This is a good week to trust your instincts, pursue new ideas and maybe even venture outside your home turf – a bit of travel for those who can afford it. This expressive, exciting card will set everything you touch, no matter what, on fire!
Cancer
9 of Swords
CancerDon’t let those fears get the better of you, no matter how tempting it is.
The 9 of Swords is a tumultuous card of mental frustrations, anxiety and nightmares. Your dark thoughts surface and it seems impossible to shake them off.
When we are in this state of wrestling with our own heads, it can feel endless, like there is no light at the end of the tunnel in sight.
However, know that this is the energy for this week… and it will change quickly, as long as you face the situation with open eyes and are honestly willing to see it for what it is. (After all, the shadow is only afraid of your own enlightenment).
Lion
5 of Swords (reversed)
Lionlife feels more complicated than it should.
The 5 of Swords emphasizes a competitive environment in your area. Everyone always wants something moreand they are not afraid to step on toes to achieve their goals.
You’ll try to distance yourself from this toxicity and hyper-competition by flipping this card, but some Leos may struggle with the aftermath.
You’ve still absorbed a lot of that negative talk and attitude, and it may take some intentional cleansing and refreshing to fully shift that boundary.
Virgin
The star
Virgin covered the tumultuous Tower card last week and will be rewarded with some healing and rejuvenation during this card!
The Star offers you a fresh start, even if it isn’t immediate or glamorous. This card of spiritual healing and gentleness slows your pace and sheds a kind, gentle light on your rest process.
In other words, you’re picking yourself up again this week, Virgo.
Don’t overload yourself. We all know that it’s tempting for Virgos to return to the grind and hustle and bustle of the work you planned for yourself, but now is the time for healing and gentleness… for yourself.
Libra
Queen of swords
Libra is to embrace their truly honest, balanced and logical self.
You are known for your diplomatic attitude, but the Queen of Swords emphasizes these qualities even more than usual this week.
Currently your head is quite clear and your intentions are honest, reasonable and level-headed. This is a good week to make important decisions, have vital conversations and sign off on important contracts that may still be outstanding.
Scorpio
Wheel of Fortune
The Wheel of Fortune is turning for Scorpio… but what does it all mean?
This card of happiness aligns you with the greater forces that may exist, even if this also comes at a small cost of having less control over your current circumstances.
You are now meant to reconnect with the Universe and a greater sense of purpose, which can sometimes make life feel blurry or strange, as if you are just a passenger on your own journey.
However, this is undoubtedly a positive omen, and it indicates that you are on the right track… even if you can’t see exactly How yet.
Archer
The chariot
Archer finally gets some action and momentum!
You’ve done a lot of thinking, pausing, and reflecting over the past few weeks. It’s been very stop and go for Sagittarius… but it’s time to build strength Stop to that now.
The Chariot shows you moving forward with long-term goals and ambitions, now connected to your true passions and purpose, and intended to pursue some practical plans while aligning with a solid sense of self.
Our advice for you while you keep the momentum going? Be confident, smart and powerful. You already have everything you need for success, Sagittarius.
Ibex
King of Swords
Ibexall’s fair in love and… well, everything.
The King of Swords this week shows Capricorn in a firm, logical and practical attitude. Your head is clear and your thoughts are aligned. You are ready to make a judgment call and put the finishing touches on anything and everything.
This can be quite a scary sight to see, as Capricorn is already known for its serious nature. Use this to your advantage!
While others listen and pay attention, use your voice for the forces of good and productivity. Even if it’s an unpopular idea you’re thinking of, they might thank you later for what seems “unfair” now.
Aquarius
Ace of Swords (reverse)
Aquarius tries to muster the courage and intrigue they long for, but it doesn’t come easy.
The reversed Ace of Swords indicates stagnation and setbacks that persist as you search for new beginnings and motivation, but life just isn’t going your way.
This can feel like you have a word on the tip of your tongue, but you just can’t remember it…but to a degree of x10. It’s frustrating, tiring and much more annoying than it seems.
But don’t force yourself to run a marathon if your body tells you it’s not ready to do even a small sprint. When you’re asked to slow down…slow down, Aquarius.
Pisces
Power
Piscesyou have always been a force to be reckoned with, even if others don’t often see it.
This week, Power shows you how to connect with the blessings of compassion, willpower, and fortitude; qualities that you have honed and practiced extensively and that have grown into real powerhouses that you can use.
These aren’t the loudest or glitziest properties, and they don’t always win friends or awards quickly.
But they are part of who you are, and this week is about honoring these qualities, using them wholeheartedly, and standing firm in what makes you…you.
How to Prepare for Aquarius Season

That’s why we like to collect well-rounded tools that you can use alongside your Tarotscope. Here are our essential recommendations for this week:
