Welcome to 2025, Aquarius!
Welcome to 2025, Aquarius. When the year begins, several planets are retrograde. This includes eccentric Uranus, your ruler. During Uranus retrograde, you reevaluate all areas of your life with the goal of becoming happier. However, in early 2025, warrior Mars is also retrograde. This could see shifts in libido and lowered drive at work, but it offers an ideal chance to connect and build community.

Love and Relationships
Overall, 2025 points to a rather smooth year in love. When the year begins, your ruling planet, eccentric Uranus, is retrograde until Thursday, January 20. This isn’t cause for alarm, but it does see you rethinking how you want to approach love. Early 2025 may be a little sluggish as it pertains to love and sex. Note that Mars, the warrior planet that rules sexual energy, is retrograde until Sunday, February 23. During this time, you and other signs may notice a shift in libido. If this happens, just honor whatever arises. However, despite Mars’s retrograde, the full moon in Leo on Tuesday, February 12 could bring culminations to romantic relationships. Just know that if you’re not careful, it could also lead to fights with partners, so opt for low-key hangs at home rather than wild nights.
Shortly after Mars goes direct, romantic Venus begins its backward dance from Saturday, March 1 to Saturday, April 12. While you shouldn’t let astrology stop you from living your life, these dates are not considered the best time for marriage, and if you’re single, dating may feel a little slow.
Sex and Intimacy
July looks to be an exceptionally sexy month. From Friday, July 4 to Wednesday, July 30, Venus is in your pleasurable 5th House. This time of the year could see sex marathons, spontaneous vacations, or simply erotic nights at home with a sex toy. As summer fades to fall and Venus shifts into Gemini and your romantic 7th House, many Aquarius will see the physical side of sex amplified by an emotional connection when Venus moves into Leo, from Monday, August 25, where it will stay until Friday, September 29. If you’re hoping to be in a new relationship, the summer could see you meeting someone while the fall deepens that partnership. During this time, starting on Saturday, September 6, your ruling planet, Uranus, goes retrograde again, and this backward dance lasts through the end of the year. So, while all of 2025 is romantic, it’s bookended with meditations on what love means to you.
Friendships
While it’s common to want to read your horoscopes for information on romantic love, remember that your friendships serve as the foundation upon which all other relationships are based. You absolutely want to connect with friends during Aquarius season while the sun is in your sign from Sunday, January 19 to Tuesday, February 18. Make sure to communicate to your friends and chosen family how you want to celebrate.
Conclusion
Overall, 2025 is a year of introspection and self-reflection for Aquarius. With several planets in retrograde, it’s a perfect time to reevaluate and refocus your priorities. Whether in love or friendship, remember to take things slowly and be patient. The universe is guiding you towards a more fulfilling and meaningful life.
