After a bit of a slow start into 2025, January tap dances into new routines, new friends, and new shake-ups for each zodiac sign. Find out which iconic tap number from famous musicals aligns with your horoscope this month!
♈️ Aries ♈️
(March 21 – April 19)
"Stop"—Mean Girls
Aries, you’re ready to hit the ground running this year! All of the energy from your fiery (literally) personality has been building up over the holidays and you’re all set to start the new year off with a burst of energy—or so it seems. Mars, your ruling planet, starts off 2025 retrograde in Leo in your fifth house of romance and self-expression and Jupiter is retrograde in your third house of communication. This means you’ll likely experience a false start or two, forcing you to reevaluate yourself and your decisions. Everything will move a lot slower than you’d like it to. Take this time and STOP to embrace the unwinding and learn a bit about yourself. There’s plenty of time this year to dash off after Mars retrograde ends in February!
♉️ Taurus ♉️
(April 20 – May 20)
"Shaking the Blues Away"—Holiday Inn
The planets are forcing you to take it easy this month, Taurus! With three planets—Mars, Jupiter , and Uranus retrograde—your ambitious goals for this year will have to wait a bit. You’re likely dreaming of a new workplace, job title, or salary going into 2025. Take January to really think about what you want out of your career and your life rather than dive right in. This is especially true as your Sun and Mercury move into Aquarius this month. Similar to Jim and Linda, you might find that you want more out of life with your passions, rather than just your career.
♊️ Gemini ♊️
(May 21 – June 20)
"Morning Person"—Shrek the Musical
You’re more than enthusiastic as this month kicks off, Gemini, but you want to be doing more. Remember that all good things come with time. Even though three planets are in retrograde this month, the primary ones that have been weighing you down have lifted and you’re ready to jump-start the new year. With the Sun and Mercury in Capricorn early on, expect to feel serious about things ahead, particularly your career! This wide-eyed optimism will be a sort of self-fulfilling prophecy for you, encouraging you to take charge of the way ahead. In turn, that confidence will bring about good fortune.
♋️ Cancer ♋️
(June 21 – July 22)
"Express Yourself"—Billy Elliot
Cancer, January will be a particularly intense month for you. With the Full Moon in your sign of Cancer mid-month, expect hidden emotions and struggles to come to the surface. These are meant to be addressed, so do so now! Be brave enough to ask for help when needed. The good news is, with the New Moon in Aquarius towards the end of the month, January is almost cathartic for you—bringing about an energy of feeling, releasing, and reinventing. This is boosted as Mercury enters Capricorn, allowing you to communicate with those around you clearly and concisely.
♌️ Leo ♌️
(July 23 – August 22)
"Friend Like Me"—Aladdin
With two signs in a bit of conflict this month, Leo, you’ll be dealing with a bit of unwanted emotions. As Mars enters your home sign of Leo, you’re excited for a free start to the year with an enthusiasm for new projects. However, the New Moon in Cancer forces you to take a second to self-reflect and focus on yourself. These opposites will enjoy a little tap dance (pun intended) between one another throughout most of the month, bringing about new highs and lows for you. Remember that everything you want is within reach and the best things can take a little time. On the bright side, January is a highly social month as the New Moon in Aquarius enters your seventh house of relationships. Expect to make new friends and connections early in 2025!
♍️ Virgo ♍️
(August 23 – September 22)
"King of New York"—Newsies
Virgo, the only thing that can stop you this month is yourself. When Venus enters Pisces in your eighth house of transformation, expect an uptick in your love life! This month, say yes to any personal endeavors that may come about, you never know which one could lead to something more romantic. This could maybe even be regarding someone you only ever saw as a friend. Beyond romance, the Full Moon in Cancer in your 11th house of companions fills your life with community and camaraderie. The New Moon in Aquarius towards the end of the will bring about (finally) New Year’s resolutions and updated routines for you.
♎️ Libra ♎️
(September 23 – October 22)
"Step in Time"—Mary Poppins
Libra, expect a little tension in your friend group early in the year as Mars enters Leo in your 11th house of companions. As much as you’re the scales and “peacemaker” of the zodiac, this is a moment that calls for less intervention and more patience. Whatever the conflict is, let it work itself out, especially as Mars moves backward into Cancer by the end of the month. Instead, focus on that drive and energy at work. With the Full Moon in Cancer in your 10th house of career, you may be feeling a little pressure at work. Remember that a lot of these expectations can be self-inflicted and that the best way to tackle this kind of stress is to take it one step at a time!
♏️ Scorpio ♏️
(October 23 – November 21)
"Anything Goes"—Anything Goes
January brings about a more relaxed energy than you’d expect, Scorpio. After a turbulent end of the year, this month will be a wonderful respite for you. As the Sun enters Aquarius in your house of communication, you’ll find yourself opening up to those around you including family members, friends, and neighbors. Additionally with the Full Moon in Cancer, you’re letting your adventurous side loose! Everything you've been holding back or containing is finally ready to be released. While you tend to live on the cautious side, you don’t find that necessary at the moment! Who knows, it might be surprisingly healing to let go and follow your heart for once.
♐️ Sagittarius ♐️
(November 22 – December 21)
"Bianca"—Kiss Me, Kate
Sagittarius, expect to spend a little time closer to home this month. With Mars going retrograde in Leo, you can expect a lot of complications and pitfalls in travel. This is reinforced as Venus enters Pisces in your fourth house of home and family, indicating a harmonious and relaxing sanctuary at home. Step on the brakes for once, and take time to appreciate the life you’ve built right in front of you. You’ll especially need the calming energy of your house as the Full Moon in Cancer enters your second house of personal finances, bringing a bit of potential turmoil or confusion to your bank account.
♑️ Capricorn ♑️
(December 22 – January 19)
"A Musical"—Something Rotten!
Capricorn, January promises a wonderful start to the new year for you as the Sun is in your home sign! This is an ideal time to focus on your needs, desires, and feelings and what it takes to fulfill those going into 2025. Just be on the lookout for some potential conflicts, both personal and professional, that can distract you this month. As Mars goes retrograde in Leo in your 10th house of career, watch out for power struggles and conflicting egos at work that might try to drag you into their drama. Furthermore, the Cancer Full Moon in your seventh house of close relationships is likely to highlight a conflict with someone you love.
♒️ Aquarius ♒️
(January 20 – February 18)
"Putting on the Ritz"—Young Frankenstein
Aquarius, 2024 was more of an emotional year than you expected, especially in the latter half. As the Sun moves into your sign of Aquarius towards the middle of the month, take this time to heal old wounds, especially any relationship drama that resulted from Mars retrograde in Leo. Focus on yourself and your needs. Refill your cup before trying to fill others. On the bright side, the New Moon in Aquarius (YOUR moon) brings about the cycle of rejuvenation you desperately need. This can mean travel, financial benefits or steps towards a future dream of yours. This is particularly boosted as Mercury joins Aquarius at the end of the month allowing you to express your always unique point of view.
♓️ Pisces ♓️
(February 19 – March 20)
"Star Tar"—Dames at Sea
With the excitement of the new year, you’re more than ready to get started, Pisces! However, it’s not on the planets for you. With Saturn and Neptune both in your home sign of Pisces and Mars retrograde in Leo, you might feel pressured to over-perform at work while already feeling bogged down. This can lead to more unwanted mistakes and errors—you need your time to rest! The Aquarius New Moon at the end of the month is the perfect time to do so. On a very positive note, as Venus enters Pisces in your fifth house of romance, expect 2025 to start on a lovey-dovey note. You’ll be bursting with creativity, new ideas, and passion!
