Your Monthly Work Horoscope for January 2025

Aries
The year starts off with you wanting to achieve more acknowledgment at work, which for you translates into monetary gain from your job. Asking for a raise on January 13, during the Cancer full moon, will guarantee that you receive the pay increase. The caveat is that you might be too focused on the amount of money that you are getting and base your existence on it, as you are comparing your salary to that of your friends (a competing sentiment that you will feel on the twenty-ninth, during the new moon in Aquarius).
The movement of Mars retrograde into the career house in your chart on January 6 suggests that professional visions will be solidified, even bringing a new title your way as well.
By the time Uranus turns direct on the thirtieth, you’ll feel glad that you pushed hard to get the raise that you worked hard for. In fact, your friends might be jealous of you now rather than you of them. This will lead to you being the most successful member of your crew and the envy of those you work with. After all, you earned it! Enjoy the fruits of your labor during the back end of the month.
Taurus
January is an intense month for your career goals and path. Uranus turns direct on your sun on the thirtieth to help you align with your wildest passions, which you might find ignites the fire under your belly. You’re an innovator and it’s time to let the world see your visions.
Jupiter and Uranus (who is aligned with your sun) will bring unexpected surprises to your career, for better or worse. You might decide to partner with another company on a business venture or shift your personal professional goals.
The sun shifts into the professional sector of your chart on January 19, giving you the chance to put the pedal to the metal in manifesting your desires no matter how wild they might seem to others. As long as you believe in yourself and your dreams, anything can happen and help you attain financial success.
The new moon on the twenty-ninth will cause situations to take a change of course, but don’t let that bring you down. You can make anything happen in your life. Lean more into your hopes right now.
Gemini
There’s an amazing dream coming true toward the end of the month, so keep up the amazing efforts, and allow yourself to be inspired! This is an interesting time for you, Gemini.
When sun enters Aquarius on January 19, you are finding that you’re unable to find the right words to say and even present that pitch you’ve been obsessing over these past months. There’s plenty of incredible surprises in the wings, and you might even get a strong recommendation for a potential lead that brings more optimistic connections if you play your cards right at this time.
The Aquarius new moon on the twenty-ninth will heighten your desire to succeed at everything you do. As usual, you are inundated with various tasks and projects at once, but the main reflection presenting itself to you is how do you actually feel right now? There are many emotional breakthroughs surfacing around you, making it difficult to separate your work and personal life. Expanding your vision will help create a more peaceful immediate working environment, even with all the messages floating into your in-box.
Cancer
The year 2025 starts off with a crash course in financial planning. It’s not that you’re going broke, but you have to get your money in order (mostly because you crave security). Mars moonwalks into your sign on January 6, and there’s a Cancer full moon on January 13, so will have to start paying off your college loans and credit card debt. The good news is that this transit can also bring a raise your way, which will offset paying off your bills.
You will recoup your money and then some when the sun enters Aquarius on the nineteenth. Watch out for unsavory business plans or investments that are coming your way. It might result in scandal (which is why this should be avoided if possible to ensure you’re not involved in a fishy situation regarding your money or career). The offer might be hard to resist, but you should say no to it no matter how much they promise. Just because it seems good on paper doesn’t mean it actually is. The new moon in Aquarius on January 29 will help you regain control over such matters, if you’re ready.
Leo
There is so much intensity flying around in the skies through the duration of this month for you, Leo. Unexpected change is happening in the career sector of your chart due to Mars backing into Cancer on January 6, spicing up your daily life.
The whirlwind doesn’t end as Uranus ends its retrograde on the thirtieth. There are plenty of connections you’ve made over the years who can present you with the perfect advice at just the right time, but this is not a cycle for you to go at things alone. There is more power in the group effort right now for you. You might have to think more on your feet than you would prefer, and make on-the-spot judgments (which your impulsive nature usually loves) that can make you feel a little squeamish, especially if you let your perfectionist tendencies get the best of you.
The new moon in Aquarius on January 29 doesn’t bring a magical solution, but it does bring a strong indication of what career hopes, dreams, and goals you need to accept and acknowledge in order to manifest your best possible life. This is a quite pivotal period of growth for you. You will let go of your old visions and embrace new ones.
Virgo
There are a lot of big business decisions you need to make this month. The evolution you’ve been undergoing this year in general is almost unworldly at times. There is a sense of déjà vu occurring often with career opportunities around you. You might even feel like you are connected more than ever to your coworkers when the sun shines its light on the sector of service in your chart on January 19, allowing you to utilize your colleagues and create projects as a team.
The caveat to your team efforts might occur during the new moon on the twenty-ninth. This luminary will make you want to work alone, not with your colleagues. Instead of avoiding or gaslighting them, be direct with the fact that you want to focus on yourself at the moment. You will want to rethink your relationship with your coworkers and want to start working on new material or projects.
Basically, January is a roller coaster for your work partnerships. But you will get through the highs and lows even if there are a few minor and annoying professional speed bumps along the way.
Libra
The raise you’ve been longing for might come into play when Mars reenters Cancer on January 6 and during the full moon on January 13. This sentiment will be exacerbated during the Aquarius new moon on the twenty-ninth. This energy will bring unexpected twists and circumstances; it might not be for the amount you had hoped. On the contrary, you might be surprised. This will shift a lot of your subconscious career goals to the forefront of your mind.
You might even want to shift your role at work or take on outside projects to get your hustle on and to help others. January 19 might force you to rethink the relationship you have with your colleagues. Deceptions will be unmasked as well as their ulterior motives with the sun moving into Aquarius. Quite frankly, this won’t be the best time for you at work. Luckily, the cosmic energy of January will align you with new people through networking, who will help you get your groove back and trust again.
Scorpio
Financially, you are thinking about making some moves. But you have to see how the rest of a speculative opportunity will play out before you decide to invest when Uranus turns direct on January 30. You are confused about major financial moves that you have to make and questioning if your novel ideas are are going to work out in the long run. Don’t rush into decisions. Take your time before moving forward.
The powerful new moon in Aquarius on the twenty-ninth appears in your zone of professional contacts, which can serve as a barometer of the months ahead for yourself. You might feel called to do an about-face in some aspect of your current course of business development. Someone or something has been sparking your interest and waking you up to new possibilities for yourself.
There is really nothing you have to do other than just be your amazing self and maybe send that follow-up email to clients or your boss to remind them about your proposal or to check in regarding new work opportunities when the sun transitions into Aquarius on January 19.
Sagittarius
This month ahead gives you time to work with and even consider the future of your own financial wellness. You have to make some decisions right now, which might ultimately create shifts in your relationships at work.
The Cancer full moon on January 13 will inspire you to lean in to your intuition and assert your desire to ask for more money at work. The caveat to asking for a raise is that it will ultimately start drama among your coworkers during this luminary, as they are envious of your achievements.
Before you act out and defend yourself against their emotional behavior, take a step back and ask yourself if it’s worth the trouble. After all, you did get the money you asked for and deserve. What difference does it make if they are exhibiting behavior that is less than professional? Don’t feel bad for protecting your emotional and financial well-being. To be honest, you have to ensure your own financial security. After all, you’ve earned it through your hard work.
Capricorn
The year 2025 starts with you making all the right moves to elevate your career to the next level. The difference between this year and last year is that you don’t have an immense amount of pressure on your shoulders. The energy is a lot lighter and chiller.
Mars reentering your opposite sun sign on January 6, and the Cancer full moon on January 13, will give you the motivation and extra push to get the ball rolling in order to make all the necessary changes needed to bring success your way (as long as you don’t let fear hold you back by being triggered by all of last year’s work drama).
The sun glides into Aquarius and boosts your confidence on the nineteenth. You’ll feel like you’re on top of the world, which is a long way from where you started. The new moon on the twenty-ninth pushes you to take back your power and crush it at work. Stay the course and you will win in all you do.
Aquarius
There’s a shift in your methodology with Pluto in your sign. You’re evolving your world and expanding your professional dreams. This might take you farther away from your original professional vision than you had thought. You will also be enthusiastic about your career in a way you haven’t before.
On January 19, the sun enters Aquarius, allowing you to discuss your passions openly with others. If you believe it, then it can happen now.
The twenty-ninth brings the new moon in your sign, which will allow you to put your dreams on paper and make decisions about how you want to manifest them in reality. This will help you work out all the kinks and bumps that might come your way while you move forward with your new professional endeavor. Just don’t be hard on yourself on your path to success. If you believe in yourself, you can make anything happen. You’re on your way to greatness when Uranus turns direct on January 30.
Pisces
This month opens up with a financial reward for your hard work that you’ve possibly been worried about, Pisces. You are so talented and have so much knowledge surrounding multiple subjects, it is time to let these areas of life come out on a larger scale.
The full moon on January 13 brings the momentum you’ve needed to help steer the ship and keep you on track. You now have the motivation you need to keep it moving even as the world goes through some major shifts before your very eyes. You might feel calmer than usual, and even feel deep in your soul that something is about to change for the better.
It’s not easy to put your work out there during the new moon on the twenty-ninth, because you are bearing your soul to the world. In this case, you are met with incredible love and major respect, which will last longer than this month.
