About January 2025
January takes its name from Janus, the Roman god of doorways and transitions, whose two faces look simultaneously into the past and the future — a fitting namesake for the month that opens the civil year across most of the world. That wasn't always the case: the earliest Roman calendar, credited to Romulus in the 8th century BC, had only ten named months and began counting from March, leaving the coldest stretch of winter without any name at all until King Numa Pompilius's later reform added January and February to the front of the year. In the Northern Hemisphere, January sits in the depths of winter, with daylight still short but slowly lengthening after the December solstice; in the Southern Hemisphere it's the height of summer. The month spans two zodiac signs, Capricorn until roughly the 19th and Aquarius from the 20th onward, and its traditional birthstone is garnet, with the carnation and snowdrop as its birth flowers.
The US observes January as National Blood Donor Month, a designation tied to historically lower winter donation rates as illness and holiday travel keep donors away from blood drives.
Winter storm and cold-weather insurance claims in temperate climates typically peak in January, reflecting the month's position deep in the Northern Hemisphere's coldest stretch.
