The beginning of the month is going to be peaceful, leisurely but also unfruitful. We're going to be preoccupied with bold dreams and are going to be laying out grandiose plans for our future but aren't going to actually take any specific actions toward their realization. Despite this, the period is going to be a pleasant one as we're going to meet link-minded individuals with whom it'll be a real pleasure to communicate with.
In the period between January 8 and 13, we're going to have many opportunities for realizing our plans but we'll need to mobilize and act swiftly. Only those zodiac signs who overcome their initial indecisiveness and head forward with conviction will be able to achieve realistic successes.
After that we'll be entering a period in which we're not advised to take up any grandiose projects. It'll be easy to get smaller tasks going but those requiring more substantial effort will fall through. We're also going to need to be more patient and not dramatize if our expectations aren't met.
Aries
Don't count on easy and dizzying successes this January. You're going to have to work quite hard in order to realize your plans. But before you do so you'll need to organize your life and determine your priorities. It would also be wise to go over your circle of friends and remove certain individuals from it. It's about time you rid yourself of fake friends who only stick around due to certain benefits.
Taurus
The 1st half of January is going to be most beneficial for you, as you'll definitively resolve problems that have been worrying you until the end of 2017. You're going to have many interesting proposals before you and will definitely not be bored. You need to be more careful with your finances until the end of the month and not make reckless purchases. Pay heed to your health also - eat healthy and conserve your energy.
Gemini
Throughout January you're going to have to overcome a number of challenges. But the good news is that the Universe will be on your side, so you will enjoy successes after all. The greatest achievements will come to those of you who think outside the box and aren't afraid to take risks. During the 2nd half of January your relations with persons important to you will become more complicated due to misunderstandings. It's possible that you'll temporarily halt a romantic relationship or partnership.
Cancer
It's not worth coming up with grand plans during the 1st half of January. They may bring you pleasant emotions but will definitely not grant you long-expected victories. The situation will change gradually. Your performance on the love front and in your career will be up to par, while your achievements become ever more impressive. You're going to have worthwhile reasons for pride and happiness until month's end.
Leo
The month is going to be conflicting and emotional for you. From the very first days of 2018 you're going to face numerous problems, some of which won't even be yours. But if you focus on teamwork, you'll overcome the difficulties through joint efforts. Be on the lookout for annoying occurrences toward mid-month, while at the end of January prepare to receive a valuable lesson that'll make you grow up faster.
Virgo
You're not going to be lacking emotions at the start of January. You'll end up facing serious hurdles but thanks to your plentiful strength and unceasing enthusiasm you'll handle all of them. However, during the 2nd half of the month you're going to be beset by exhaustion and be more irritable than usual. Despite this, try to maintain good relations with relatives and friends because you're going to need their support.
Libra
This month you're going to have to work on your relations with others and warm your connection with them. It would be wise to be more trusting of them and share more facts about your personal life. Don't be afraid to show your charming side by sharing happy stories. Work up the courage to peer into the worlds of others as well, by asking them questions and showing genuine interest toward them.
Scorpio
Certain unexpected events may catch you off-guard during January. But if you manage to keep calm without forgetting who you are and what you're aiming for, you're going to shake off your initial shock and continue onward. Additionally, over the next few weeks, try to rely primarily on your own abilities because otherwise you'll be left disappointed or dissatisfied.
Sagittarius
Certainty, diligence and purposefulness - these are the qualities that are going to be most valuable for you this month. The Universe will have you facing your greatest fears and you're either going to crumble before them or eliminate them forever. You're also going to have many obligations related to school or work, while your personal life is going to take a back seat.
Capricorn
In the first days of January you're going to find yourself in a relaxed environment, while you're still prone to the euphoria of the Christmas-New Year's celebrations. But afterward the atmosphere will become more tense and you're going to have to take up responsibilities that you've been avoiding lately. If you've made a mistake at work or on the love front, it's highly likely you'll be asked to pay for it.
Aquarius
Use the beginning of 2018 to once again analyze the past few months of your life and see your mistakes. Admit that you owe your failures to yourself and no one else. Try to reach valuable conclusions and learn from the lessons the Universe is giving you. Consider your priorities for the near future and head toward it with newfound strength.
Pisces
You have a successful month in store for you but don't expect to receive everything right from the very first few days of January. Things are going to develop at a slower pace, meaning you'll likely see tangible results from your efforts toward the end of the month. Until then, it's best to play it smart and watch what you're doing.
