2026 Annual Forecasts are now available.
This week we all have that back-to-work vibe, even though the festive spirit will continue for many of us. Thankfully, turkey leftovers are a thing of the past. (Enough is enough.) Now we can move forward with a renewed outlook to our new year ahead. Four planets in Capricorn - the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars contribute to this "back-to-work vibe." This energy will also encourage shopping for clothes that look sharp, current and impressive. Why not? You never get a second chance to make a first impression. Tuesday and Wednesday are passionate, romantic, tenderhearted days. The weekend has its challenges. Basically, this week is a transition from crazy December and the festive holidays - moving forward into the new year. And we all know, the future is much like the present only longer.
You make a wonderful impression on others this week because the Sun is high in your chart casting you in a flattering spotlight. Not only does this make you look attractive, you also look competent - even if you don't do anything different. Mercury, Venus and Mars are also high in your chart. Mercury encourages making plans for your career. It also helps you to explore new studies and benefit from discussions with bosses and superiors. Venus will attract a romance with someone older or more established. Venus will also smooth your dealings with authority figures. Mars will arouse your ambition! Admittedly, it can encourage conflict with others. Nevertheless, this is a lovely week for you.
There's a strong energy in your chart now to travel or do something to expand your horizons because you need a change of scenery! You feel stifled, and caught in a rut; now you must do something to seek change! Obviously, travel is a great choice. Or you might go back to school, sign up for a course, do some kind of study or join a book club because new ideas and fresh concepts will please you. You might develop a crush or fall in love with someone who is "different" from the people you usually meet. It's important that you acknowledge this need for change within you, and do something to satisfy it. At least book a massage.
Right now, lucky, moneybags Jupiter is in your primary Money House, bringing opportunities to boost your income. You might find a better paying job, or get a raise. Or perhaps, you will sell something or do something to create more wealth in your life. Ironically, four other planets are in your other Money House enhancing your ability to benefit through shared property, the government, coming out on the right side of disputed negotiations, or benefiting indirectly through the wealth of your partner. (It might be wise to practice generosity to keep this wonderful formula going because what goes around comes around. Past generosity is the cause of your good fortune!)
This is a fortunate week! Lucky Jupiter is still in your sign drawing people and resources to you, boosting your self-confidence and making you feel secure. Jupiter attracts new experiences that bring you good fortune. Note: You will continue to have this blessing until July 2026. So, make the most of this! It won't return until 2037. In addition to this fabulous advantage, four planets are sitting opposite in your House of Partnerships, paving the way for important discussions and good feelings, which can outweigh some of the irritations and sense of competition that might also be occurring. In other words, if you look at your cards, you'll see you're holding a good hand.
This week is a transition from busy December and pleasant festivities to a renewed focus on practical work and getting things done. Big change! You're in great form because four planets are in your House of Employment - invigorating you, and encouraging you to work hard and work smart. Mercury will help you tackle hands-on issues and use your mind in a clever way. Mars will boost your energy, ambition and perseverance to get things done. Venus will attract cooperation from coworkers and anyone else who has your back; and the Sun will help you manage your life and prioritize the tasks that need to be done. You're ready for anything. Bring it on! (Romance is still promising.)
Everyone is ready to get back to work except you because you're still in party mode! That's okay. Enjoy socializing. Grab every chance to participate or view sports and be active with children. Accept invitations to socialize with others because this is what you want to do. You also want to express your creative talents and delight in the arts, or hobbies and arts and crafts, or enjoying the creations of others, which is why galleries and craft fairs will intrigue you. There's a huge emphasis on romance and love affairs at this time for your sign. When it comes to work - give yourself a pass because you're not ready.
This week, four planets are in the part of your chart dealing with home and family. (Including real estate.) It means you might be involved with a parent or an older family member more than usual. Or you might have dreams and thoughts about a parent. Family discussions might take place. You might be hands-on doing repairs. Many of you face increased chaos and activity at home because of guests, moves, or projects. The good news is your ruler Venus will encourage quiet, peaceful hours at home. You'll enjoy entertaining. You might find yourself eating sweets and seconds on dessert. Meanwhile, Jupiter at the top of your chart, continues to make you look successful to your world, and this lovely influence lasts until next July. What a blessing!
It's a busy week but it's fun busy. This week is a transition from festive activities back into the real world of obligations, duties and deadlines. Small wonder that you're juggling appointments, errands, taking courses, learning, reading, writing, studying and talking to siblings and family members. Fortunately, both the Sun and Venus will polish your communications making you entertaining in the eyes of everyone. People want to talk to you. This same influence will help you appreciate the beauty of your daily surroundings. Travel if possible. Explore opportunities in publishing, the media, medicine and the law.
Money is on your mind this week because as we transition out of the holiday season back into the more practical routine of your life, you'll be thinking about how to make money or how to boost your existing income. More than any other sign, you have moneymaking ideas all the time. That's because you see opportunities in situations around you. In fact, you have the ability to attract money to you this week! Look for money from the government, partners, or people who owe you money. This will be handy because you want to solidify your home base and create a safe refuge for your future.
With the Sun and Mars in your sign, you're pumped! Get out and explore hiking, walking or any physical activity that helps you get rid of any pent-up steam building up within you. It's a great week to buy wardrobe treasures. As your mind jumps from issue to issue, with Mercury in your sign, you're keen to talk to everyone. You might want to travel, probably short trips. You'll be astute at negotiations, and Mars will make you proactive enough to close the deal. Because you're in a two-year window that encourages job changes or residential moves, you have a lot on your mind. One major bonus that lasts until July 2026, (longer for some) is partnerships are warm, rewarding and joyful. Lucky you!
Because your birthday is looming ahead, this is a time of waiting. You're wrapping up your personal year and waiting for your new one to begin. This time of waiting is a bit like being in limbo or waiting in a hallway before you enter a room. It's the perfect time to think about what you want to say next, what you want to do next, where you want to go and who you want to be. That's why this week, and until your birthday, you will benefit from jotting down ideas and writing down some goals because goals give you a sense of purpose and help you make decisions. Certainly, you have opportunities to improve your health, and your job from now until late summer. Plan for this!
This is a popular week for you because you're genuinely interested in others, which is why you're keen to reach out and socialize with everyone. Younger people in particular will be attracted to you. You might feel competitive with someone. Perhaps you'll be involved in competitive sports or some kind of team activity. You might feel a warm attraction to a friend because for some of you, a platonic friendship could morph into something romantic. This is not surprising because for the next six months, opportunities to socialize, play and have fun with others are the best they've been in over a decade! Lucky you! Children will also be a source of joy. Life is good.
