Which planets will come to define the new year? We know that we’re in the Age of Aquarius, and this sign will clearly have a large influence on 2017 as a whole. But the way we begin the year says a lot about the way we will end the year-and therefore, it can indicate certain developments that will occur in between. So, which planets will have a big influence on 2017? Well, we’re ending January with Mars entering Aries.
On January 28, Mars will move into Aries. This is an important transit for many reasons. It ends the first month of 2017, closing off the first chapter of a new “book,” so to speak. It gives us a boost of energy for the upcoming months and hints at the direction this year will be going. Here are a few things to expect from Mars in Aries.
- You might feel your temper flare more often than usual.
Aries is a passionate sign, and they can be quick to snap when they are upset. And to top it all off, Mars is also a planet that represents pure passion-in any area. Passion and anger can go hand in hand-and sometimes, we may even confuse the two! And when Mars is in Aries, it might get even more confusing-so try your best not let your anger out on the wrong people, because misdirected anger can only lead to more problems.
- You might feel somewhat restless.
Aries is adventurous. They like to stay moving. They don’t like routine, and they don’t like to be in the same place for too long. During this transit, you may find yourself aimlessly looking up flight prices to destinations you’ve always wanted to visit and just never had the chance. If the opportunity arises, go ahead and book that trip! Get out of the town and go wherever your soul is calling you. Travel is an enriching experience, and Aries knows that all too well.
- You will outgrow relationships with certain people.
Aries is a stubborn sign-they know what they want, and they’re not afraid to just go out there and get it, no matter what it takes. You’ll be feeling this same energy during this transit. And because of this, you’ll start to notice that certain people in your life may have been holding you back for a long time-and you just never realized it before. Be realistic-it’s probably time to begin the process of letting go of these people.
- It’s a great time to set goals.
As previously stated, Aries goes after what they want-they don’t hold back! With the new moon in Aquarius and this transit, it’s absolutely the perfect time to start a journey down a new path, and to really think about your goals and intentions for the coming months. It’s time to stop dreaming and start doing! The universe has your back, so there’s nothing to be scared of-get out there and get what you want out of life!
