The Week Ahead for Capricorn
Monday, 29 Dec – Sunday, 4 Jan
Thursday may be the start of a new year but it seems you have some settling up to do. Saturday’s full moon cuts across the relationship axis, making it the perfect time to put your signature to something that you hope will last a lifetime or end a long-standing endeavour. And even if Saturday comes and goes with nothing remotely done and dusted, over the next two weeks, closure and completion in some form should take place. 2026 is going to be a year of great import, so getting behind situations you have left lingering for far too long is mandatory if you are to fulfil its promise.
Nailing it.

Monday, 22 Dec – Sunday, 28 Dec
Christmas comes in on a Venus-Neptune square – perfect for the spirit of the time and sending the all-important message: make love, not war. Of course, that’s the best version of this planetary coupling, a less inspiring one might be: don’t lose the plot! It is easy to confuse fantasy with fact at such a time, so you need to be careful not to overreact to an unintentional slight or some other honest mistake as though there is something much darker beneath it. Live and let live. Forgive and forget. These are the tools for a happy Christmas, and in some cases, this is going to be the most magical Christmas ever.
It’s all about the spirit of the season.

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 2026 Forecasts should be posted by Tuesday Dec 30th. See below:
