Your Leadership Guide to Aquarius Season

Aquarius Season Wants You to Break the Mold

Aquarius season starts on January 20^th and ends on February 18^th. This is a transformative time to take what we learned in Capricorn season and make meaningful changes. Capricorn season was all about setting personal goals, practicing discipline, and reflecting on the past to identify where and how we want to grow. Aquarius season focuses on the future and arrives like a breath of fresh air. We are encouraged to reset, refocus, and make good on the promises we made to ourselves. The sun rises earlier and sets later, and we feel more energetic and motivated. As we step out of the quiet solitude of Capricorn season, we feel a greater need for community.

Aquarius season is about the 3 C’s:  Connection, Communication, and Creativity. It is time for us to move forward by taking the steps needed to achieve our greatest ambitions. This can be both exciting and daunting since sometimes the life you want means significant changes to the one you have. Aquarius is the rebel of the Zodiac and is associated with individuality and breaking free of old patterns. This requires outside-the-box thinking and the bravery required to ask hard questions. Are we happy with where we are in our careers? Where is there room for growth? If we are not happy, what are we willing to do to change?

Look for your sign below to see what Aquarius season has in store for you:

Aries (March 21^st – April 19^th):

As an always-moving fire sign, you might have felt a little antsy and bored during the Capricorn slowdown. Keep the faith that the seeds you planted in December and January will yield incredible results. Practice patience – you’ll see the fruits of your labor soon.

Taurus (April 20^th – May 20^th):

The changes you experience in Aquarius season might be difficult since Tauruses thrive in routine and stability. Honor the spirit of Aquarius season by flexing your brain muscles with a thought experiment. What would life look like if you moved out of your comfort zone? Evolving your mindset and being open to new experiences will help broaden your career opportunities.

Gemini (May 21^st – June 20^th):

The desire to fantasize will be intense for Geminis this season. Daydreaming is great, but make sure you focus on day-to-day tasks and don’t get behind at work. Conserve your energy for important tasks and projects and stay connected to your true north.

Cancer (June 21^st – July 22^nd):

Cancers can often be found behind the scenes, keeping the peace and going with the flow. Allow your voice to be heard this season. Be more vocal in meetings, share ideas and have faith that your team will appreciate your thoughts.

Leo (July 23^rd – Aug 22^nd):

This is a great time to evaluate if anything in your life needs to change. This month’s full moon is in Leo and encourages you to take full stock of your circumstances. Are you happy with where you are in your career? Do you want to look for a new opportunity? If you do, this is a great time to explore new ventures.

Virgo (Aug 23^rd – Sept 22^nd):

Virgo, the focus for this season is on making your life better in the present moment. Evaluate your place in your career and look at personal goals to ensure you are taking the proper steps to get there. It’s a great time to seek a mentor or take classes to learn a new skill.

Libra (Sept 23^rd – Oct 22^nd):

As a natural leader, you don’t often have issues leading a team; however, with the uptick in momentum during the Aquarius season, you may face some challenges from team members. Putting in extra time to focus on conflict resolution and management courses will help you better connect with your team and understand how to support them best.

Scorpio (Oct 23^rd – Nov 21^st):

Scorpio, your theme of this season is balance. The intensity of Capricorn season may have left you feeling a little drained. Resist the urge to push through exhaustion and find time to rest and achieve goals. Setting clear, achievable mile markers on the way to accomplishing your objectives will help you stay on track while preventing burnout.

Sagittarius (Nov 22^nd – Dec 21^st):

Sagittarius, you may have struggled during the quiet solitude of Capricorn season, but quiet is what you needed. Now that Aquarius season has started, it’s the perfect time to lean on your social Sagittarius tendencies and build your network by reconnecting with colleagues and contacts you’ve lost touch with.

Capricorn (Dec 22^nd – Jan 19^th):

Hopefully, you left Capricorn season with a long list of goals and ambitions. You can project manage in your sleep and know you can always depend on yourself to meet a deadline and finish a project. This season, help team members by offering to help them find ways to tackle their goal setting.

Aquarius (Jan 20^th – Feb 18^th):

Aquarius, this is your season! While you may feel energized and motivated to break the mold, other signs may be feeling out of sorts. You thrive on change, but remember, change can cause overwhelm in others. You can help your team this month by leading from a calm place and offering support.

Pisces (Feb 19^th – March 20^th):

Pisces, you might feel a little raw as we leave Capricorn season. For the sensitive Pisces, solitude and quiet are safe places, and entering the world of Aquarius might be a little intimidating. Instead of feeling like a fish out of water, focus on the opportunity to build your destiny and embrace your imagination.

We hope that by understanding how to embrace your inner rebel this Aquarius season, you’ll feel empowered to think BIG!
