Zodiac Signs
Aquarius season 2027 runs Jan 20 to Feb 18, computed to the minute. Here is what the season is about, the moons inside it, and which part of your life it lights up depending on your rising sign.
A zodiac season is simply the stretch of the year the Sun spends in one sign. There are twelve of them, each about thirty days, and together they are the year. Aquarius season is the 11th of the twelve, counting from the spring equinox.
The strangest season and the most sociable one, which is a combination nobody expects until they notice it happening.
| When | What happens | |
|---|---|---|
| Begins | January 20, 2027, 2:29 AM ET | The Sun reaches 0 degrees Aquarius |
| Ends | February 18, 2027, 4:33 PM ET | The Sun reaches 0 degrees Pisces |
| Length | 30 days | Seasons are not all the same length, because Earth's orbit is not a circle |
Aquarius is described as independent, inventive, principled, detached and humane. During Aquarius season those qualities are simply more available to everyone, not only to people born under the sign. The Sun in a sign works like a floodlight pointed at one part of the zodiac: the matters of that sign are lit for about thirty days, and then the light moves on.
Aquarius is an Air sign and a fixed one, ruled by Uranus and Saturn. In practice that combination is what gives the season its particular texture: air for what it cares about, fixed for how it goes about it.
Every season contains a new moon in its own sign and a full moon in the sign opposite, which is Leo. The new moon is the beginning of something in the season's territory; the full moon is where the opposite sign demands equal time.
| Date | Phase | Degree | What it tends to do |
|---|---|---|---|
| January 22, 2027, 7:17 AM ET | Full moon | 2°15' Leo | The Leo side of the axis asking for its share. Usually a culmination rather than a start. |
| February 6, 2027, 10:56 AM ET | New moon | 17°38' Aquarius | A beginning in Aquarius territory. The clearest point of the season for starting something. |
This is the part that general season horoscopes skip, and it is the only part that makes the season personal. The Sun spends these thirty days in one house of your chart, and which house depends on your rising sign rather than your Sun sign.
| If your rising sign is | The Sun moves through your | So the season is about |
|---|---|---|
| Aries | Eleventh house | friends, groups and what you want next |
| Taurus | Tenth house | career and what the public sees |
| Gemini | Ninth house | travel, study and what you believe |
| Cancer | Eighth house | shared money, debt and the things nobody says out loud |
| Leo | Seventh house | the person across the table |
| Virgo | Sixth house | work, routine and the body |
| Libra | Fifth house | romance, children and whatever you make for pleasure |
| Scorpio | Fourth house | home and family |
| Sagittarius | Third house | conversations, siblings and short journeys |
| Capricorn | Second house | money, and what you think you are worth |
| Aquarius | First house | you, and how you come across |
| Pisces | Twelfth house | rest, solitude and what you have not looked at |
If you do not know your rising sign, it needs your birth time, and the guides here cover how to find yours.

January 20, 2027, 2:29 AM ET to February 18, 2027, 4:33 PM ET. The season begins the moment the Sun reaches zero degrees of Aquarius.
A year runs about six hours longer than 365 days, so the Sun reaches each sign boundary slightly later each year until a leap day resets it. The drift is about a day over four years.
Everyone. The Sun moves through one house of every chart during the season, and which house depends on your rising sign. The table above lists all twelve.
Being born during it makes Aquarius your Sun sign, which is a permanent feature of your chart. Living through it is a thirty day period that affects everybody, in different parts of their lives.
