Love and Relationships

Aries may feel supported by friends. Single Aries might unexpectedly find a romantic partner while networking, at a party with friends, or at an event. For now, it’ll remain friendship! By the end of January 2026, the ice can thaw!
Family and Home
Cancer represents the 4th House of Family and Home. The Full Moon in Cancer on January 3, 2026, reveals concrete plans to move, or there will be an actual move, renovation, or changes in and around the house. Retrograde Jupiter in Cancer helps resolve old issues and restore family relationships. Jupiter retrograde in Cancer provides stability in home and family expenses.
This Full Moon is about clearing out the old to make way for the new—in short, a breath of fresh air in your home with the potential for stability, care, and warmth.
Supported by Saturn in Pisces, it’s about setting boundaries, both literally and figuratively, reuniting with family or your home country. A situation at home is coming to an end, such as the opportunity to free yourself from a restrictive family situation or conflict with neighbors or your neighborhood.
Career
Capricorn represents the 10th House of Career and Life Path.
The first half of January 2026, thanks to the conjunction of the Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Mars in Capricorn, is an ambitious period for making a positive impression.

In the second half of January 2026, the conjunction of Mars and Venus in Aquarius could help shape a professional project, but try not to overexert yourself, as your planet Mars is square Aries. Expect resistance.
Don’t be too ambitious, be patient, and don’t let your cards get in your face.
