Aquarius season is practically always full of chances to connect and collaborate with others, whether you’re working out your New Year’s resolutions with friends, organizing an epic Valentine’s Day for your significant other, or making Super Bowl appetizers with your family.
The fixed air sign Aquarius, after all, values cooperation above all else. The Water Bearer thrives on social events, hanging out with friends, and quality time spent bonding with platonic friendships.
Consequently, social engagements are bound to flood your schedule during Aquarius season. However, that is by no means the sole subject of the Aquarius season. During this mid-winter period, when the air sign is so intent on going against the grain, creative ideas and original thought are likely to flourish.
While the energy may be very similar to the beginning of 2023, you may experience a sense of a fresh start during Aquarius season 2024. Pluto, the planet of change and power, will enter Aquarius the same day the sun will rise, which is why this is the case. As the sun squares Jupiter, the planet of plenty, it can amplify the effects of anything it touches, so you might feel an overwhelming sense of optimism, confidence, and sheer euphoria—the kind of thing that could make you overextend yourself.
With Venus, the planet of beauty and love, transiting Capricorn, the sign of tradition and practicality, it is an auspicious time to make commitments regarding your relationships and your values, especially during Aquarius season. Everything you wanted to know about Aquarius season is right here.
When Does Aquarius Season Begin?
Annually, the Aquarius season occurs between the dates of approximately January 19-20 and February 18-19. This year, the Aquarius season will run from January 20th to February 18th (at least according to the time zones in the United States).
The Aquarius Season’s Overall Mood and Vibe
If you want to know how Aquarius works in astrology and how it affects the vibe from about the middle of January to about the middle of February, just look at the people who rule this sign. The modern ruler of this sign is Uranus, the planet of uprisings, revolutions, lightning strikes, innovations, and genius. The unconventional, revolutionary spirit of Uranus is the driving force behind Aquarius’s contempt for status quo values, social norms, and established practices. Plus, Saturn—the planet of dedication, limits, boundaries, constraints, and labor—ruled Aquarius prior to Uranus’s discovery. As a fixed sign, Aquarius has a propensity for binary thinking, which is reflected in their drive to complete ambitious, forward-thinking projects.
As a sign that is fundamentally opposed to conformity and the status quo, Aquarius is proud to lead the way in a fresh, unconventional, and oftentimes radical fashion. Extremely scientifically minded, they can be downright rebellious when it comes to ideas that lack proof or peer review. Those who have the sun, one of their major planets, or all six planets in Aquarius tend to value individuality more than conformity. They will stop at nothing to avoid what they perceive as societally mandated behaviors, such as marriage, parenthood, and monogamy. Aquarians are generous souls who love helping others, working together, and strengthening their friendships; they also happen to be natives of the eleventh house, which is all about connections and organizations.
With that being said, as the sun enters Aquarius, it’s likely that we’ll all gravitate toward our social circles and seek solace in groups and teams. Since Aquarius cares deeply about issues of fairness, equality, and advancement, we might also look for ways to make the world a better place.
Aquarius Season: What to Expect in 2024
The last Mercury retrograde of 2023 ended on New Year’s Day, so by the time Aquarius season begins, we will finally feel like we’re making progress. Additionally, the sun’s entrance into Aquarius and Pluto’s powerful transit into fixed air sign occur simultaneously. Pluto is notoriously sluggish, so we won’t see its effects for a while. However, from now until September 2024, while it’s in Aquarius, we can anticipate power struggles and transformation in many fields, including politics, science, technology, community causes, innovation, social media, and more.
During the transit of Venus through Capricorn from January 23 to February 16, the planet of love, wealth, principles, and the arts will bring a more grounded, conventional energy to matters of the heart, the body, and the bank account.
The wolf moon in Leo on January 25th opposes Pluto and squares off against Jupiter, who loves to exaggerate things, so it could be dramatic and even unsettling. Additionally, the new moon in Aquarius on February 9th has the potential to bring about dramatic shifts and heightened rhetoric.
Zodiac Signs Who Might Be Affected Most During Aquarius Season 2024
Aquarius season may inspire those born under the fixed signs to release the past and make room for a beautiful new future vision, especially those whose sun or major planets are in Taurus (fixed earth), Leo (fixed fire), or Scorpio (fixed water).
How Aquarius Season Will Affect Your Zodiac Sign
Let’s take a look at what each sign can anticipate during the Aquarius season. You are welcome to read the following based on your zodiac sign and/or rising sign as well. Happy reading!
Aries (March 21 – April 19)
Team projects are calling your name as the self-assured sun moves through Aries, your eleventh house of networking. Sure, you’re usually pretty self-reliant and would rather be in the driver’s seat than a cog in the wheel of a larger machine. Doing so right now will make you feel connected, motivated, and elated to be a part of something significant. To rephrase, working with others is a very satisfying experience. Additionally, team up with friends and discuss the finer points of achieving any long-term dreams you may have. Now, their backing could be a true game-changer.
Taurus (April 20 – May 20)
During Aquarius season, when the self-assured sun is in your tenth house of career, people will pay close attention to your professional and public life. You might be experiencing an influx of energy that makes you want to take charge or speak with someone higher up about your future goals. Even though you usually prefer to keep your mind on the finer points of a larger project, this is your chance to bask in the glory and take full credit for everything you’ve accomplished.
Gemini (May 21 – June 20)
While the Capricorn season encourages you to cultivate close relationships and strengthen your bonds with loved ones, the Aquarius season brings a fresh, adventurous spirit. As the sun moves through your ninth house of adventure, you’ll feel compelled to break away from your usual routine—maybe even more so than usual. Even though you’re usually game for taking a flight to a faraway place, you’ll be bursting at the seams to do it right now. On the other hand, you might think about enrolling in a class, a seminar, or even a mentorship program to expand your knowledge base.
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
Since the sun has moved into your eighth house of emotional bonds and intimacy, Aquarius season amplifies the energy that Cap season brings to your one-on-one relationships, encouraging you to go deeper into them. Even though you probably already feel pretty at ease being open and honest with your loved ones about how you’re really feeling, you’ll be even more likely to open up and express what you need in order to feel safe and secure. If you and a friend or coworker are interested in learning more about investing, developing a business strategy, or finding a way to reduce debt together, now is a great time to ramp up your joint financial efforts.
Leo (July 23 – August 22)
Since the sun is in your sixth house of routine during Capricorn season, you may find that you are totally absorbed in the tedium of daily life. However, your ruler, the self-assured sun, is currently in your seventh house of partnerships, drawing your attention to quality time spent alone with loved ones, whether that be friends, a significant other, or a business associate. During Aquarius season, you can gain a clearer picture of your contributions to these relationships and the benefits others are providing you with. A strong emphasis on reciprocity means that you can grow your sense of identity in tandem with the relationships that support you.
Virgo (August 23 – September 22)
During the Aquarius season, the sun, which is known to enhance vitality, will be transiting your sixth house of routine and wellness. This house is also associated with your sign, so it’s safe to say that it represents your comfort zone. Thus, you can now enter a state of flow, making progress on routine tasks and practices that strengthen your inner equilibrium. Try some new, nutrient-dense winter recipes, get back into the habit of daily meditation, or find your fitness groove at your favorite studio or with a personal trainer. On the other hand, it’s the perfect time of year to count all the things you’ve promised to do every day. You have an incredible work ethic, but you take on too much. Maybe it’s time to simplify your schedule so you can have a better work-life balance.
Libra (September 23 – October 22)
During Aquarius season, the sun, who brings vitality, will be transiting your fifth house of romance and self-expression. This could make you more artistic, creative, and enthusiastic in your expression of emotions, but you’ll still be extra playful and fun-loving. To rephrase, Libra, you have the potential to have a very satisfying and delightful season. Embrace spontaneity to the fullest, own your voice, and put pleasure first by pausing on deadlines from time to time; this season is made for living in the now and reveling in what makes you happy.
Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)
With the sun in your third house of communication, Scorpio, you may find that cap season is filled with social activities. During Aquarius season, though, staying in is more appealing than usual since the sun is transiting your fourth house of home life. At this time, you may feel an overwhelming need to stay in and spend quality time with those closest to you. Whether it’s taking a yoga class online or finally getting that long-overdue FaceTime with a dear friend, you’ll be tempted to do anything that doesn’t require you to leave your house. Since the sun’s presence in this house is associated with revealing and healing inner wounds, therapy may also be especially fulfilling at the moment.
Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)
While the sun is in Capricorn, Sag, your attention is squarely on your second house of income, so you might feel a little stiff and unmoving during that time. However, with the sun entering Aquarius, your third house of communication will be illuminated by the Water Bearer’s season, so you will be laser-focused on socializing, learning, and satisfying your soaring curiosity. There will be even more time in your already packed schedule to spend with loved ones, whether that’s friends, family, coworkers, neighbors, or even siblings (if you’re lucky). Actually, you might find your calendar becoming a little overwhelming with all the invitations you’re juggling; therefore, it is imperative that you schedule in some much-needed downtime to recharge your batteries.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)
While the sun was in your sign, you felt a healthy dose of self-assurance, which you put to good use in pursuits that meant a lot to you. Now that it’s transiting Aquarius and your second house of income, though, you’ll be thinking more about how to monetize those efforts. For instance, you may have decided to transform an interest into a source of income, and you’ll have ample opportunities to gather information and take action during the Aquarius season. Additionally, you will have a sharper awareness of your values, making it easier to recognize when an approach to making money doesn’t sit right with you and redirect your efforts accordingly.
Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)
Hey there, Water Bearer! It’s your moment to shine! You may have felt like you were standing onstage, rehearsing your lines, while the sun was in Capricorn. However, now that the sun is in Aquarius, the sign of the Twin Suns, and the first house of self, it’s your turn to shine! Your self-assurance will skyrocket, and you’ll feel ready to pitch the projects that truly excite you. You might even decide it’s time to revamp your personal brand so it better represents your values. Additionally, this is a great time to focus on yourself more by doing more self-care and self-work.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
Because the sun transits your twelfth house of spirituality during Aquarius season, Pisces, you may feel drowsy during this time of year. You may find that you need more time to yourself after incorporating relaxation and rejuvenation into your routine than usual. You might also experience very realistic dreams. Make time for yourself, daydream, or try a manifestation technique. This exciting new chapter, Pisces season, will begin next month, and all of these things are setting the stage for it!
