Here’s what the stars have in store for you this month…
Aries
Expect passionate clashes that ultimately clarify what (and who) is worth your energy, alongside a powerful surge of motivation to aim higher, move faster, and claim new territory.
Love & Relationships – Five of Wands
Aquarius season might spark a few tensions and shifts in your relationship realm, as you yearn for more freedom, spontaneity and excitement.
You are a full-blooded character and routine can get you down, even when it’s for your own good.
Try and not take it out on other folk.
Seek your own thrills!
Maybe even take your partner inner circle with you and let them share an Aries escapade.
If you’re single, look out for challenging Fire signs (Leo, Aries, Sagittarius).
Work & Purpose – The Chariot
A new year galvanises you and you are ready to set new goals and resolutions, especially around your life purpose and career.
You are aiming high, higher than ever, and ready to form a strategy and action plan that gets you where you want to go.
Mars moving into Aquarius on the 23rd is a great date to apply, pitch, propose, or share an idea.
Location feels important too, maybe you’re ready for new territory or landscape.
Omen to look out for – The Moon
Look out for the number 18 or repeats of it.
Make sure you have solitude on the Full Moon (3rd) and New Moon (18th) to reflect on your big goals, your progress, and your unanswered questions.
Around these dates you will uncover the answer, and a few revelations that might change everything (for the better).
Be on alert, probe, ask, validate, dig.

You are the rock in your relationship realm right now.
Maybe some folk have had a hard time Christmas and New Year- it’s a chaotic and depressing time for many – and you have been on hand to advise, support, comfort and cajole.

Clarity is needed this January.
Like a reality check of where you’re at, how you truly feel about it, what you want to unfold this year, and what steps you can pro-actively take now that will have impact.
Imagine you’re a consultant and you’re sifting through the data, feedback, interviews, and outputs to make this like a presentation (for yourself)! This sense check is important.

Work & Purpose – The Star
The New Moon in Capricorn on the 18th is the perfect day to manifest a new career or life purpose ambition.

Capricorn
Capricorn, this is a month where the universe meets you halfway – rest where needed, work where it matters, and watch tangible progress begin to take shape.
Love & Relationships – Four of Swords
Feels like you’re ready for a time out, a rest, a pause in trying to fix or work on something in your family, home or love life.
Should it really be this difficult? Sometimes.
But you also can’t carry all the weight, it takes two, there must be mutual investment and commitment.
Step back ad do less and notice what happens… do they come forward or do they just carry on like nothing’s changed?
That might tell you a lot about the real dynamic here.
Focus important conversations around Neptune moving into Aries on the 26th.
Work & Purpose – Knight of Coins
You’re ready, as ever, to work your socks off and get the results or outcome you’ve got your heart set on and the cosmos is ready to back your every move this January.
For starters, it’s your season (until the 20th) so you’ve got luck and fortune on your side.
The New Moon on the 18th is in your sign too so you make wishes and start manifesting your 2026 goals from then with full confidence.

Omen to look out for – Ace of Cups
Look out for the number 1, or repeats of it.
Look out for instant attractions, chemistries and sparks. Especially in candlelight.
Look out for love-related tokens, visuals, items or events (Valentine’s is not far…) because you’re being drawn into a loving enchantment this month – to fall (or fall deeper) in love!
Aquarius
Aquarius, January brings a swirl of nostalgia, disruption, and brilliance as the past resurfaces and your future begins to radically re-shape itself.
Love & Relationships – Page of Cups
You feel playful, nostalgic and affectionate, after all it’s nearly your birthday, and this makes you want to reunite with old friends, long lost family and maybe even an ex lover you can’t forget.
All reunions from childhood and beyond are welcome this January, so think about who you most want back in your life and then, around the Full Moon in Cancer on the 3rd, start to reach out and send messages or see if you can cross paths around old haunts.
The past is not as far away as you think…
Work and Purpose – The Tower
Mars moves into your sign of the 23rd but, before then, something has to give.
You have perhaps pursued something that isn’t working (and you know it, but don’t want to admit it) or been shoved into a role or task that isn’t suited.
Speak this truth out loud and let events conspire to remove you, one way or another, from this unwelcomed position.
You don’t belong there.
It might be a jolt or a sudden shift, but it’s for the best and you mustn’t look back.
From the 23rd, pivot towards the role, task, goal or area you DO want to develop in.
Omen to look out for – The Magician
Look out for the number 1 or repeats of it.
Look out for magic! Whether that is spiritual or practical, cosmic, magician-like or party trick-esque.
Read about inventions and innovations in an area that intrigues you.
Whatever you notice or absorb will infuse and combine in your mind to bring up an amazing idea this January- maybe your best ever idea!
And it will be the defining concept or notion for 2026!
Pisces
January invites you into a role of quiet wisdom and discernment, Pisces, as overlooked connections and unresolved situations ask for your attention and compassion.
Love & Relationships – Four of Cups
You’re overlooking someone in your circle who could be the best thing for you right now – in love, alliance, or friendship.
They might’ve been quiet recently, or distant, or you kinda’ even take them for granted.
They don’t get your best attention but they deserve to because they’re a steadfast support and they adore you.
Notice the quiet ones. Seek out the hidden gems. Shine your precious light on them and let this bond deepen and grow.
Aquarius season might provoke this, on the 20th, as this sign is all about truth.
Work & Purpose – Five of Swords
Mercury is in Capricorn from the 1st which makes this a great month to discuss tricky issues that need practical, material solutions and steps taken.
This is not about complaining or criticising, but about clarifying things which don’t work and need a better process, system, or approach.
The focus should be on the ideas and options for change and progress, maybe with a phase of experimentation and trial that starts on Aquarius season, the 20th, given that sign’s affinity with invention and innovation.
Be the problem solver!
Omen to look out for – The Star
Look out for the number 11.
Look out for legal, criminal or social justice stories that strike a chord with you.
Ask why so.
Notice things around you that don’t sit right with your moral compass.
Be the one who speaks up and shines a light on stuff in your realm that needs setting right.
Your intuition and powers of persuasion make you well placed to see the truth, act on it, and get a new outcome.
You are being nudged towards righting the scales of justice.
You will be rewarded.
