New Moon in Capricorn, 7 January: your 10th house
Thursday 7 January brings the New Moon at 17°18′ Capricorn, exact at 20:25 UTC, and for Aries it falls in the 10th house, the house of career and reputation.
In the old reckoning the New Moon was the threshold every month was counted from, and the January threshold stands in your 10th house, the Midheaven, read as a seed of ambition, planted where other people can eventually see it. Set in your 10th house, the January lunation takes its tone from its sign: Capricorn, cardinal earth ruled by Saturn, gives it a sober and ambitious manner, built for the long climb.
If you want something to do with this January lunation, ask for the conversation about your role, pay or direction that you keep delaying.
Beyond the Sun sign
Your Sun sign is only part of 2027
A Aries forecast reads the year by your Sun sign alone. The Road of Ages reads the turning points of your whole life from your own birth date, and shows where you stand on it now.

The Full Moon is exact at 12:17 UTC on Friday 22 January, with the Moon at 2°14′ Leo and the Sun opposite in Aquarius. For Aries the Moon lights your 5th house, the house of romance, creativity and children, while the Sun stands across in your 11th.
In the old reckoning the Full Moon was the month’s midpoint, a time to gather in, and in January the gathering happens in your 5th house, Good Fortune: a creative work reaching the point where it has to be shown or set aside. For Aries this January, Leo lends it warmth, courage and a little theater. With the Sun across the chart in your 11th house, the January Full Moon speaks along the axis of the heart and the hope: personal joy and the friends and causes you belong to.
If you want something to do with this January lunation, spend unhurried time with a child, or with the child you were.
Planets changing sign or direction in January
Venus enters Sagittarius on 7 January, your 9th house. Until 3 February, Venus in your 9th house makes the faraway attractive: love of travel, of foreign things, of beautiful ideas and of people from elsewhere.
Mars turns retrograde in Virgo, in your 6th house: the planet of drive appears to reverse until 1 April, and the old books counsel patience while it does. The turn comes on 10 January, at 10°25′ Virgo, and Mars retrograde in your 6th house is read as a time to pace yourself at work, rest the body and fix what has been rushed.
Mercury crosses into Aquarius on 13 January and so into your 11th house. Until 1 February, Mercury in your 11th house fills the inbox with friends and groups: plans for the future, networks and shared ideas.
The Sun enters Aquarius, your 11th house, on 20 January at 07:30 UTC. Until 18 February, with the Sun in the house of the Good Spirit, the tradition reads a sociable month in which allies are easier to find.
Love, work and money for Aries in January
Venus begins January in Scorpio, your 8th house, and enters Sagittarius, your 9th, on 7 January, turning affection toward love across distance or difference, and the shared beliefs that hold a couple together. The Full Moon on 22 January falls in your 5th, the house of romance, creativity and children.
Mars stays in Virgo all month, your 6th house, putting the month’s effort into the daily job, colleagues, workload and routine, most directly of all the houses. The New Moon on 7 January lands in your 10th, a house the tradition gives to career.
For money, no lunation or fast planet changes in your 2nd house (Taurus) or your 8th (Scorpio) in January, so the tradition would put the month’s weight elsewhere and leave Aries’s budgets to ordinary prudence.
