As the school year moves into the colder winter months, perhaps it is worthy to consider what the zodiac signs will be doing in case the dreary winter days turn into snow days.

The evening of December 31, Mars moved from imaginative Pisces into headstrong Aries, setting a raucous — yet highly motivated — tone for the start of 2019. Neither Venus nor Mars will be retrograde this year. After the summer of retrogrades, we survived in 2018, having two of our personal planets stay direct for all of 2019 will feel like a celestial vacation.
