What this first day of the year brings us is the idea that the “new” is really here and that we have a choice whether or not we welcome it with open arms, or whether we stick with our path of progress. It's January 1, 2024 and we have a choice before us: Will we embrace change or will we reject it?
What benefits us is the direct transit of Mercury, and this definitely opens the flow for positive energy and positive perception. We're not as afraid of change as we used to be, and for three zodiac signs, this is an incredible leap forward, and one that many of us will take advantage of this newfound confidence.
We are not going backwards, that's for sure and we are aware of it. While the past may be something that lurks in our minds, during the time of Mercury we are very aware that something has changed and that if we are brave enough to accept it, we may stumble upon something very special. So on this day, January 1, 2024, these brave zodiac signs will say “yes” to change and embrace themselves.
Three zodiac signs welcome changes in life on January 1, 2024:
1. Aries
(March 21 – April 19)
You feel like you have no choice but to embrace the changes that are coming, as you are someone who believes in progress and knows that it will only come when you are not the obstacle in your way. Sure, there will always be others who get in your way, but you can't control that; What you can control is your behavior, attitude, and perception, and when Mercury takes control this day, you'll feel like it's a done deal.
All you need in this world is the drive to make things happen and sometimes even you can admit that it is difficult for you to stay on track and keep going. You have been challenged, and there are times when you shy away from those challenges because you fear that you cannot handle the pressure on you. Unfortunately, things are really changing for you now, and as this first day of the year comes into your life, you will find yourself believing in yourself, and that means you can achieve almost anything.
Yes, you may need to ask for help, but that's okay knowing you don't live in a bubble. It's not a problem for you to ask for help because it's part of the change you need to embrace. In the past, you've tried to show yourself that you don't need anyone and that you can do everything on your own, but as Mercury Direct shows you, it's okay to ask for help, just like it's okay to admit that you Need help It. This marks the beginning of a very brave time in your life, Aries.
2. Leo
(July 23rd – August 22nd)
The past year has taught you so much, and now you finally understand what's important, and that's pretty humbling. You put yourself in danger several times because you thought it was okay, and you ended up scaring some people in your life. You have learned that you can no longer be so selfish and that you must consider the idea that you are not alone in this life and that there are people who are counting on you to stay healthy and strong.
This lesson will be revealed to you on the first day of the new year, 2024, and much of it occurs during Mercury's direct transit. This transit opens your mind and makes you realize that life is not only precious, but also something that you share with others and that you must take these others into account in almost all of your actions. It also brings up the idea of gratitude; You are so loved – don’t take that for granted.
So on this day, January 1, 2024, during Mercury Direct, you will embrace the idea that you need to change your ways… and everything will seem so very doable to you. They do not view the coming year as a series of frightening and discouraging obstacles. In fact, with your new attitude, you see everything as both a challenge and a reward. The life ahead of you looks great and you're happy to accept the changes that are being asked of you, Leo.
3. Fish
(February 19th – March 20th)
This first day of the year seems to be a very good opportunity for you to adopt a completely new attitude and get started. You feel like you went down the wrong path last year with your moodiness and lack of interest. Maybe it was just a mood, or maybe Mercury retrograde got you, which is all the more reason you'll enjoy this day, January 1, 2024, since this is the day Mercury goes direct.
