Lunar calendar for January 2025: phases of the Moon
The basis of the lunar calendar is the period of phases of the natural satellite of the Earth, which is called the synodic month and lasts about 29.5 Earth days. This form of counting time is the earliest, it was used by human ancestors during the Ice Age.

The calendar became widespread in Mesopotamia and then spread all over the planet.
Phases of the moon
During the use of the lunar calendar, there was a clear understanding of what could and could not be done on a particular day of each month. In particular, thanks to this there appeared the lunar sowing calendar, observing which it is possible, for example, to accelerate the growth of plants.
Gradually people realized that the lunar year is shorter than the solar year and in most countries refused to use it. Nevertheless, the lunar calendar remains popular, especially in agriculture. The phase will determine when it is best to fertilize a plant and when to prune or water it. Waning moon days are considered favorable for sowing and planting root crops, legumes or bulbs; new and full moons are unfavorable days for planting; a waxing moon is a good time for transplanting, cultivating plants and loosening the soil.

Lunar calendar for January 2024: when it is better to cut hair, take care of the body and do surgery
Although the lunar calendar is most widely used by astrologers and in agriculture, it is also used in cosmetology. Thus, many people, making a schedule of visits to beauty salons, pay attention to the phases of the Earth's satellite, for example, not to stop hair growth or get the most out of skin care procedures.
Astrologer and numerologist Anna Kuznetsova told Izvestia that in Vedic astrology the Moon is considered as one of the key planets influencing the mind, emotions and general condition of a person. Lunar phases (tithis) play a crucial role in planning actions, especially those related to the body, mind and energy.
Each phase of the Earth's satellite in astrology, however, has its own peculiarities. According to the expert, in the days of the waxing Moon energy in a person arrives and contributes to the beginning of new affairs, improving appearance and recovery. In this regard, Anna Kuznetsova advises not to linger at the table and salads, because the New Year 2025 is the time for action.
The full moon is the culmination of energy, and the influence of the satellite enhances intuition, emotions and physical activity. The waning moon, on the other hand, is suitable for getting rid of excess - both on a physical and emotional level.
Many people also plan medical appointments, surgical procedures and dental treatments based on the phases of the Moon. Dates of important events, such as weddings, deals or even investments, are also checked against the position of the natural satellite.
Vedic astrologer says that hair cutting is associated with the loss of vital energy, so it is important to choose the optimal day for this.
- On a waxing Moon, hair grows faster, while on a waning Moon it grows slower. The thickest hair will be when cutting in the sign of Capricorn, Leo and Virgo. Wednesday, Thursday and Friday are successful, and Monday and Saturday are recommended to exclude, - explained the interlocutor of "Izvestia".
In addition, the expert noted that it is best to cut hair in the morning.
Favorable days for haircuts in January 2025: 1-2, 10, 10, 14, 19, 21, 22, 24-25, 29-31 numbers, and the best day - January 10, when from 11:15 Moscow time the Moon will be in Taurus under the rulership of Venus.
Some astrologers note that hair coloring does not depend on the phases of the Moon, but rather on its aspects. A favorable aspect is the aspect of the satellite with Venus, and unfavorable - with Mars and Saturn (coloring may not like the color or the way it lay).
Anna Kuznetsova also listed when in January you should go to a cosmetologist and do surgery. Favorable days for cosmetic procedures: January 6-8, 11, 22 and 24. Surgical operations are better to carry out on the growing Moon, but especially favorable January 12, 15 and 25. Astrologer named January 1-2, 4, 13, 22, 30-31 as a good time for cleansing procedures.
At the same time, the days of ekadashi, the most favorable for fasting and physical, as well as spiritual cleansing, are January 10 and 25.
Going to the dentist for cleanings, treatments and other procedures can also be scheduled on certain dates. It is believed that the best time to visit the dentist falls on the last phase of the waxing moon. New and full moons can lead to various complications.
Special attention should be paid to planning travel or business trips, which depend not only on the lunar cycle, but also on the sign in which the satellite is located. The most favorable periods are considered those when the Moon is in Aries, universal - in Cancer and Sagittarius, and the least preferable period for travel is the time when the satellite is in Gemini. Dangerous can also be the days of solar and lunar eclipses. At this time, as well as a week before and seven days after the astronomical event is better to spend at home.
It is believed that the most suitable lunar days for traveling will be 2, 8, 11, 14, 16, 18 and 21 days. To avoid failure, disappointment and problems on the road, it is worth postponing the trip from the 4th, 10th, 15th, 22nd, 24th, 25th, 26th, 29th and 30th lunar day.
Nevertheless, when planning certain procedures, as well as operations, you should first of all listen to the advice of your doctor. If you can't postpone your trip, you should prepare for it thoroughly, including in case of possible problems.
Lunar calendar for January 2025: how astrologers recommend to start the year
Anna Kuznetsova told Izvestia about the best way to celebrate the New Year. According to her, January 1 will be a great day for cleansing practices, yoga, gymnastics, breathing exercises because they help increase energy. However, the first day of the year many people sleep late or rest after a raucous New Year's Eve night. Therefore, everything that was not done on January 1 can be done in the following days.
- When the mind is calm and the heart is open, intentions gain strength, - says the astrologer.
Important is the "ritual of gratitude" for the achievements of the past year. The expert advises to say thank you to yourself, family, friends and everyone who was around.
- Take as a rule to daily write down five things for which you are grateful. This will help to form a positive attitude for the year, - Anna Kuznetsova notes.
The first days of the year are also the best time for beginnings, making plans and goals.
As Anna Kuznetsova has already mentioned, January 10 is the first ekadashi of 2025. As such, she advises spending the day fasting and practicing cleansing practices, which will create a strong momentum for well-being for the entire year.
The full moon, January 14, will offer a unique opportunity to trigger the energy of the year for those who did not do so on the 1st.
- This is one of the most auspicious days of the year due to the change of Sun sign. A moment of renewal, ideal for formulating intentions and starting new projects, especially for those who didn't have time to do so on New Year's Eve," the expert explains.
This is because the Sun will move into Capricorn, which increases aspiration, planning and persistence, helping you to focus on long-term goals. This is a time of restoring harmony, inner growth and new beginnings.
- It is recommended to start the day with a water cleansing (e.g., showering or washing with water and salt or essential oils) to refresh the body and mind. It doesn't hurt to light a candle or incense to cleanse the space in your home. Then you should sit down in a quiet place, take a diary or a piece of paper and write down 1-3 main goals or desires for 2025. It is important to formulate them in an affirmative and positive way. Then it is worth doing a good deed, for example, leave a donation - it is considered particularly favorable for the implementation of plans, - says the astrologer.
Full Moon on January 14 will be an ideal day for the first steps, if there were plans to start a project, business or practice. Even a small action made on this day will receive a powerful impetus.
The expert notes that in the context of wish fulfillment, January 14 will be even stronger than New Year's Eve for the following reasons:
- the energy of the day is more concentrated than on December 31, as this is an astronomically important moment;
- the Sun represents strength, clarity and realization of intentions, which makes the day suitable for any endeavor;
- this day is not associated with the hustle and bustle characteristic of New Year's celebrations, allowing you to focus on the spiritual aspects.
- The way the year begins will set the mood for the year to continue. Spending the first days with awareness, spiritual and physical practices, positive intentions, a person lays the foundation for a harmonious, productive and successful 2025, - concludes the expert.
When using the lunar calendar to schedule surgeries, cosmetic procedures, going to the hairdresser and so on, it is worth remembering that it represents one of the various cultural and astrological systems. It is advisory in nature, rather than requiring everyone to adhere to specific days for each procedure. When filling out the planner, you should consult your doctor first and check with your schedule.
