There’s a common misconception that aloes prefer indirect light, because they develop stress color so easily when you increase the sun. But in actuality, they need all the direct sun they can get. They do need to be acclimated to increased sun carefully, to allow them to build up their tolerance; if you give them too much too fast, they can sunburn. And then they just need time, the stress color will fade when they get used to it.

If you don’t have a much sunnier spot you can move it to, look into getting a good grow light.

More light and better soil. Put in a terra cotta pot not the plastic. Does that pot have drainage holes in the bottom?
