This Week Astrology: Jan 4-Jan 10, 2026
This week rewards emotional intelligence, disciplined action, and the ability to adjust without abandoning your long-term vision.
We begin the week under the waning Moon following the January 3 Full Moon in Cancer, shifting the focus from emotional awareness to intentional release and recalibration. What surfaced around that Full Moon now asks to be sorted, integrated, and selectively let go. With the Sun, Venus, and Mars traveling together in Capricorn, the emphasis is on structure, maturity, and long-term priorities—less about reacting in the moment, more about making choices that support lasting stability and self-respect.
Throughout the week, these Capricorn planets remain in close conversation with Jupiter retrograde in Cancer, creating a dynamic exchange between ambition and emotional truth. Jupiter doesn’t limit growth here; it internalizes it, asking for reflection around what genuinely feels nourishing, protective, and worth expanding. Mars and the Sun in Capricorn bring discipline and resolve, while Venus clarifies values, and Chiron in Aries highlights where old identity patterns may surface for review. The invitation is to grow wisely—aligning drive with emotional intelligence rather than pushing forward blindly.
As the Moon moves from Cancer into Leo, Virgo, and Libra, the daily rhythm supports stabilization, refinement, and thoughtful balance. This waning cycle favors smart adjustments, selective engagement, and strengthening what’s already working rather than forcing new outcomes. To work more intentionally with these energies, explore my written Horoscopes and Tarotscopes for added perspective, or book a psychic-astrology reading for personal insight. For deeper, ongoing support, life coaching offers a steady way to stay empowered and aligned—combining metaphysical awareness with practical guidance as you move confidently into the week ahead.
On Sunday, the Moon begins in Cancer, encouraging a slow, emotionally grounded start before moving into Leo at 8:43 AM ET. As the energy shifts, the focus turns toward confidence, visibility, and personal authority. With the week unfolding under a waning Moon and the day carrying a stabilizing Number 4 vibration, this is about organizing your energy rather than spending it. Make clear, practical choices early so you’re not reacting later. Today’s best use: stabilize your strength—put order around what matters so you can lead the week ahead from a position of control and self-assurance.
On Monday, the Moon remains in Leo, keeping emotions expressive and egos easily activated as the waning cycle continues. A Number 5 day may introduce change, mixed signals, or shifting priorities, making it important to choose your battles wisely. Not everything requires a response, and not every challenge deserves your energy. Staying cool and flexible allows you to adapt without losing authority. Today’s best use: fight when it matters, let the rest pass, and rise above unnecessary conflict.
On Tuesday, the Moon finishes its time in Leo until 11:56 AM ET, keeping the morning focused on confidence, visibility, and self-expression before shifting into Virgo’s more practical rhythm. As the Moon changes signs, attention naturally moves from performance to refinement. With the Sun conjunct Venus in Capricorn, this is a day to align values with long-term goals and make choices that support stability and commitment. Today’s best use: start with confidence, then get selective—choose what’s worth your time, effort, and investment.
On Wednesday, the Moon moves through Virgo, emphasizing efficiency, discernment, and smart use of time as the waning cycle continues. This is a day for refinement rather than reinvention—small adjustments can have meaningful impact. With Venus in Capricorn conjunct Mars in Capricorn, desire becomes focused and intentional, favoring disciplined action in relationships, work, and creative efforts. Today’s best use: apply steady effort, make purposeful moves, and let consistency do the heavy lifting.
On Thursday, the Moon continues through Virgo until 7:05 PM ET, keeping the focus on precision, follow-through, and practical decision-making before shifting into Libra’s more relational and reflective tone. With the day carrying a Number 8 vibration, this is an opportunity to step back and assess progress from a higher vantage point. Effort, structure, and intention are beginning to show results. Today’s best use: see how the pieces fit together and recognize the tangible momentum you’re building.
On Friday, the Moon moves through Libra, placing emphasis on balance, perspective, and relationship dynamics as the waning cycle continues. It’s a double dose of Venus energy, with the Moon in Venus-ruled Libra on Venus’ day, heightening awareness around values, harmony, and choice. At the same time, Venus in Capricorn opposes Jupiter in Cancer, while the Sun conjunct Mars in Capricorn adds drive and urgency. The key is moderation—pair ambition with emotional awareness and avoid overextending yourself. Today’s best use: seek balance without losing momentum, and let thoughtful restraint guide your actions.
On Saturday, the Moon remains in Libra, encouraging balance, fairness, and perspective as the week winds down. Mars in Capricorn opposing Jupiter in Cancer, alongside the Sun opposing Jupiter, can amplify confidence and ambition—but also exaggerate expectations if unchecked. This is a moment to temper drive with wisdom and avoid pushing past what’s sustainable. Libra’s influence reminds you that strength isn’t proven through force alone. Today’s best use: act with intention, choose moderation over excess, and make decisions that honor both long-term goals and emotional well-being.
Have a fantastic week, everybody!
