As a new calendar year continues to take swing, Aquarian energy provides us the energy to clear old pathways and step foot into personal empowerment. Here are 11 journal prompts to amplify self-awareness this Aquarius season.
1. What is something I’ve always wanted to explore about myself, but haven’t yet?
Think about interests, skills, or parts of your personality you’ve been curious about developing. Where are you holding back?
2. What’s one thing I’ve learned about myself that’s surprised me?
Reflecting on previous experiences helps close old doors and creates new intentional patterns. How can you build on the insight you’ve gained to step foot in the direction your soul is calling to go?
3. How do I respond to challenges and setbacks? Are there any changes I would like to make?
Coping mechanisms often reveal weak points and areas of personal growth. Is there any room to approach difficulties with more resilience or self-compassion? Celebrate any areas you’ve noticed improvement.
4. If I had to describe my authentic self in five words, what would they be?
Think about words you’d use to capture yourself and the highest vision you have of who you are in your core.
5. Which perspective or mindset shifts could radically transform my life?
The framework we see ourselves and our world from sets the foundation from which we show up. Explore any areas where a change in thinking may lead to greater fulfillment.
6. How do I define “community” and what role do I play in mine? What role do I wish to take?
Aquarian energy celebrates individuality as it plays into a larger whole. Is your current involvement satisfying? Are there any areas you would like to change?

What standards are you currently embodying? Dream big when reflecting on how habits can express personal goals and visions.
9. Are there any goals I’ve kept hidden or unexplored? What can I do to bring them to light this week? This month? This year?

Consider who helps you feel most in touch with yourself. Expand on relationships that motivate you to grow and evolve.
