Aquarius season, with dates spanning from Jan. 20 to Feb. 18, brings the height of winter and time to reflect on our lives.
According to astrologer and best-selling author Dr. Jennifer Freed, this Aquarius season will see people "becoming more committed to the communities they live and work in and to be their essential inventors of a progressive reality."
This Aquarius season is different from the past, since Pluto will move back into Aquarius Jan. 20. Freed says will make Aquarius season “turbo charged” with “power and drive” and be a “calling to change.”
The sun transitions to Aquarius Jan. 20, coinciding with Pluto’s move into the air sign. This move brings us opportunities to pursue creativity and humanitarian causes. Pluto in Aquarius offers the chance to leverage intellectualism to gain power and control.
