The Week Ahead for Capricorn
Monday, 12 Jan – Sunday, 18 Jan
You’re either having the time of your life or feeling bruised and bewildered over the speed and power of events. All things must change, but must they change so quickly and with such force? Then again, you may have nothing of significance going on in your life but you are witnessing extraordinary events in other people’s lives. Ideally, this would be a good time to deal with situations that you are concerned about before they become truly difficult to manage. And by the same token if you’re ready to launch one of your ships, do it with confidence and in style.
Taking charge.

Monday, 5 Jan – Sunday, 11 Jan
With Jupiter in charge of cosmic affairs, the tempo is upbeat and the pace, allegro vivace! Especially if it is your birthday, these positive influences will not only influence the week’s events but the entire year. Clearly, it’s not going to be one long ode to joy, but there will be some terrific moments, and what you set in motion should go from strength to strength. The only problem with this forecast is that a situation you do not want to get any bigger can also grow. With this in mind, do not throw good money after bad, so to speak. If, despite all your efforts and patience, something is not improving, maybe it’s time to say enough is enough.
When is too much, too much?

The Month Ahead for Capricorn
January 2026
Venus remains in your sign until the 17th making this a pivotal period for affairs of the heart. It may take until the new moon (18th) for you to reach a decision, but once it’s made, things will move apace. For many Capricorns the issue is about a relationship – are you in or out? You are a sign that usually puts head over heart, but not so now. Your happiness and ability to thrive are paramount. Finances are another big deal, and the week of the 19th is a corker. You could come into money unexpectedly or you may find expenditure has outstripped income! Balance in all things…

The Year Ahead for Capricorn
A full moon within days of the New Year sets the tone for 2026. It is a year in which there will be many endings but also some glorious beginnings. Jupiter continues to bring good people into your life, whether for business, friendship or romance, and it is the year of marriage for many Capricorns… There is a strong focus on family too and on finding your roots whether that means tracing your ancestry or getting a (new) home. And in the process of a home move or a family gathering information could surface that casts a new light on the past.
