Astrology and the New Year: Why Some Believe April, Not January, Marks a Fresh Start The Gregorian calendar dictates that the new year begins on January 1st. However, a growing number of people, particularly those interested in astrology, believe that the true start of a new year is marked by the spring equinox and the start of Aries season, typically in late March. This belief, often referred to as the "April Theory," has gained traction recently, fueled by social media discussions and the work of astrologers like Aliza Kelly. Kelly, a popular astrologer with a significant online following, recently posted a video explaining the "April Theory." In the video, she states, "Astrologically, it starts with the beginning of Aries season, which is the very end of March." She connects this astrological shift to the feeling of personal renewal and transformation that many experience in the spring. The theory suggests that this period offers a more profound and meaningful opportunity for self-reflection and personal growth compared to the often commercially driven celebrations of the January New Year. While the "April Theory" is not universally accepted, it reflects a broader interest in alternative perspectives on time and personal development. The increasing popularity of astrology and mindfulness practices suggests a growing desire for more holistic and personally relevant ways to mark the passage of time and celebrate new beginnings.
