If Your Birthday is Jan. 24
(The Day of the Aloof Icon) | Aquarius Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
You may become obsessed with an idea, a need or a person, though if you do, try to relax and see the wider landscape of your existence. If you make a strategy to get that one thing, you'll miss many others. Let your sincerity lead the way, and strive to understand the difference between a desire and a need. That will help you prioritize.

Current Aquarius Weekly Horoscope
The Sun and Venus are in your sign, and you're probably feeling a lot better than you have in weeks or even months. You know that positive changes are on the horizon; there's excitement in the air.

Current Aquarius Monthly Horoscope
The concept of an inner life is elusive to most people. By inner life, I mean the world that you contain, your conscious growth process, and your relationship to your past.

Written in the Planets
As the Sun and Moon form a square today (lunar first quarter), the Sun makes a couple of interesting aspects to Vesta and 1992 QB1. It would seem there's potential to turn a corner or cross a threshold in some matter that's intellectual, physical and emotional. And the thing giving you traction to do so looks like some kind of sexual-spiritual fire, along with your devotion to keeping that fire burning brightly. If that feels a little too esoteric for your everyday purposes, tap into Mercury's conjunction to Pluto in Capricorn: use your mind to penetrate whatever captures your attention today. Just remember to look up once in a while so you don't get obsessed, and so you can take in how others are feeling.

Planet Waves Eric is busily working on The Art of Becoming, the 2018 Planet Waves Annual; and it's shaping up to be an exciting, information-packed edition. You can pre-order all 12 chapter-length signs here, or you may choose your individual signs here.

Daily Horoscope for January 24, 2018 | By Eric Francis Coppolino
If Today is Your Birthday
You may become obsessed with an idea, a need or a person, though if you do, try to relax and see the wider landscape of your existence. If you make a strategy to get that one thing, you'll miss many others. Let your sincerity lead the way, and strive to understand the difference between a desire and a need. That will help you prioritize. You share a birthday with Maria Tallchief, Michio Kaku, and Daveed Diggs.
Aries
Aries (March 20-April 19) -- Even if you know the truth with total certainty, be cautious how you express it. Try to let others come to the same conclusion themselves. When you explain things, dial-back your intensity a little. Do your best to show rather than tell. Pictures and examples are more persuasive than arguments.

Taurus
Taurus (April 19-May 20) -- Put specific ideas to use. Skip the vague generalities and focus on making one tangible improvement at a time. Seek ideas from others and give them credit for making even a small contribution. No problem or situation is too difficult to bring to a productive and beneficial conclusion.

Gemini
Gemini (May 20-June 21) -- You're at a moment of clarity about an important business, financial or contractual issue. However, if you want to win this one, you will need to temper your emotions and work meticulously with a conscious strategy. Remember what you want. Focus your mind and make it happen.

Cancer
Cancer (June 21-July 22) -- If today's the day that some important decision must be made, listen to what others are saying. Let them provide you with the basic facts, the circumstances and the arguments you need to make your point. Offer them exactly what they say they want; it's likely what you want, too.

Leo
Leo (July 22-Aug. 23) -- Typically, emotions are a better way to sell things than reason and rationality. However, if you want your point to be understood, you'll need to use a combination of both. Simply put, make sure your idea of sensibility feels good, and doesn't pull people too far out of their comfort zone.

Virgo
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) -- You have all the information you need to guide things in the right direction. You are cautious and even conservative by nature. Nothing you're saying is outrageous, though it does have impact. Let others reveal how little they really know, and then let the facts speak for themselves.

Libra
Libra (Sep. 22-Oct. 23) -- You possess a rare gift of confidence that few others even think is possible. Yet you know you've worked hard for your grounding and mental clarity. It probably pains you to see others so lost in their insecurities -- though the planets are finally offering some relief from that today.

Scorpio
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) -- You may decide that something is absolutely, positively the right thing to do. Still, you must keep an open mind, and be alert to mistakes in your thinking. These will likely call for small corrections, and keeping a close eye on timing. Implement your plan one careful, thoughtful step at a time.

Sagittarius
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 22) -- Financial goals cause problems if they violate who you really are. This involves the rare, elusive and usually misunderstood thing known as integrity. Consider what you want, and ask yourself if doing a lot more of it would serve you. That'll reveal whether it's a formula for success.

Capricorn
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) -- Today you'll need to tackle the single most important task that comes up. It might be something you weren't expecting, and there may be an additional wrinkle or two to work out. Use this project as an opportunity to employ your abundant intelligence and organizational skills.

Aquarius Birthdays 2018:
Pointing Yourself in the Right Direction
"Thank you. I've been a fan for a few years and always feel nourished by every reading -- my own and others. This particular reading hit home and felt like a swoop of fresh air pointing me home. Thank you again."
-- Elaine Sonne
Dear Aquarius Sun or Aquarius Rising Reader:

Some of the most noteworthy astrological events of this year relate directly to your sign. Whether this is exciting to you or slightly intimidating, you can consider yourself fortunate: Eric will be covering the unique opportunities and challenges these events may bring you in his usual grounded, reassuring, inspiring and perspective-shifting way in your 2018 Aquarius Birthday Reading.

Planet Waves
Eric Francis.
Among the events influencing your year are both of your ruling planets in new signs: Saturn entered Capricorn -- the 'hidden area' of your chart -- in December; and Uranus moves into fellow fixed sign Taurus in May.

As your inner landscape and outer environment take on a new flavor, Eric will be guiding through it all. Also of particular note: in just more than a week we get the first of two eclipses involving your sign.

The Jan. 31 Leo Full Moon will oppose the Aquarius Sun for a lunar eclipse; then on Feb. 15, the Aquarius New Moon will also be a partial solar eclipse. Translation: your solar year is getting off to a potentially potent start, the effects of which will ripple out for months to come. Using his signature blend of astrological experience, therapy training, life coaching, and motivational speaking, Eric will cover these major changes to the sky (along with subtler points) in your upcoming reading.

When you pre-order your 2018 Aquarius Birthday Reading, you'll lock in the lowest price we offer on two segments of astrology (each at least 30 minutes long) plus a tarot reading for 2018. You can listen to this reading as many times as you like throughout the year -- to check your progress, or to receive a little extra encouragement, insight and empowerment to tackle whatever's come your way.
"I am listening to it again now, and there are so many more gems coming to me. Profound, deep and so thought provoking...inspired!"
-- Rhonda Benson
Please note that the price increases as Eric nears publication, and then increases again.

Yours & truly,

Amanda Painter

P.S. The 2018 Aquarius Birthday Reading is distinctly different from the Aquarius written reading available in the upcoming Art of Becoming annual project. It covers your key astrology in a different format and emphasis, capitalizing on Eric's more intuitive, improvisational skills. The Birthday Reading also makes a fantastic gift for a loved one!



Aquarius
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Your worst fear holds your greatest potential. It may take some trust to see how this is true, though the chances are, your deepest concern is that you somehow fail to accomplish something that's within reach, or that you let your own mind get in the way. Those things are pointing to something big.

Pisces
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) -- A rare alignment of planets all but assures that you will find a clear path forward. You've spent a lot of time cutting through the weeds, and you've become quite adept at handling your machete. Today, all you need to do is deftly handle your words, your feelings and your ideas.
