Weekly Horoscope: January 4, 2025 to January 10, 2026—Clear Skies and Opportunities For Happiness
One of my favorite uses for astrology is to look at it as a tool for understanding the universal current of energy that is moving at any given time. For instance—as I’m sure you’ve seen—some periods just seem like you’re dancing down the yellow brick road in the Wizard of Oz, while others feel as if you’re caught in the tempest. While we have many absolutely gorgeous months in 2026—with January being one of them, it’s always important to plan ahead and time your actions, rather than just sitting back expecting the cosmos to do all of the work. This is why I encourage people to always seize the day and have a plan.
The Energy Profile of This Week
Wow! First and foremost, I just want to say that I have not seen a week of cosmic glitter like this in quite some time—especially one that is favoring relationships, beauty, happiness, and pleasure as much as the one we have ahead of us.
While we may still be rolling in our emotions from the full moon in Cancer of last week, we are likely to have much to celebrate this week both personally and professionally. However, because so many personal planets are involved, especially Venus and Mars, I would encourage putting a bit more of an emphasis on living in the moment, having fun, opening your heart, and embracing romance, friendships, family, and intimacy.
Regardless of if you’re single or attached, you do not want to miss all of this sizzling, romantic, and sexy energy that is going to get you fired up all week. Go on a first date. Plan a special event with someone you adore. Get out there and mix and mingle. Tell someone how you feel.
Last to note, January 10 is extremely powerful for all matters of luck, success, and ambition, too, so reach for the stars. Happily, this energy leaks into the days before and after, too. Enjoy!

ARIES (MARCH 21 – APRIL 19)
While you are often tremendously ambitious, Aries, it feels like you’re especially fired up to conquer new heights now and in recent weeks. In truth, you must take the lead, strike while you can, and climb the ladder with confidence, perseverance, and strategy. However, if you’re feeling frustrated with professional or public matters, it’s time to reconsider going in a new direction.
TAURUS (APRIL 20 – MAY 20)
Even though you’re not one of the most spontaneous or adventurous zodiac signs of the bunch, the universe has you extremely fired up to be making big moves to step into new directions, Taurus. No matter what, you’re hungry for more—more life, more perspective, more experience. This is a time to truly do so and break out of the cage. On a physical level, some of you may be eager to jump into travel, academic or spiritual matters, media endeavors, or even legalities.
GEMINI (MAY 21 – JUNE 20)
Your libido is like a raging inferno in recent weeks, and it could be getting hot, hot, hot, Gemini! However, in truth, this is more likely to affect those who are in established relationships rather than just singles. Intimacy, passion, and sexuality could sizzle, and it’s a time to embrace your urge to merge.
CANCER (JUNE 21 – JULY 22)
While partnerships always tend to be of importance to you, there’s a high likelihood that you are presently working very hard with—or against—someone at this time, Cancer. This could be in collaboration, personally, or professionally. You’ll go much further with someone at your side right now, not flying solo. However, if there’s tension with someone of significance, it’s best to try to not let it blow out of proportion.
LEO (JULY 23 – AUGUST 22)
Even if there’s a part of you that wants you to lie low and rest and recharge, Leo, you’re equally feeling like a workhorse and you need to tackle a million different priorities. You could be immensely focused on important projects, whether it be routines and responsibilities, employment matters, or even something involving physical health. Knowing productivity is the key to big wins now.
VIRGO (AUGUST 23 – SEPTEMBER 22)
Your hunger for passion is especially ignited at this time, Virgo, and even though you like to appear buttoned-up and polished “most” of the time, you’re ready to roar and make fun, romance, and pleasure top priorities. Singles have a tremendous amount of luck on their sides to embrace new romantic suitors or spicy flings, and couples could use this energy to reignite their spark. If for some reason there’s extra focus around a creative endeavor, hobby, or child, give it that attention it desires.
LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 23 – OCTOBER 22)
There appears to be a lot of noise and commotion when it comes to your home, family, or domestic life at this time, Libra. While this could potentially indicate some tension, it could also just be that there’s so much hustle and bustle! For instance, you may be moving, renovating, or redecorating. If not, you may instead be dealing with an important situation involving family where you need to step in and take the lead.
SCORPIO (OCTOBER 23 – NOVEMBER 21)
There’s a deep sense of movement and curiosity fired up within you now, Scorpio, and the best thing to do is to follow the current of the universe and soar. For instance, you may want to learn new skills, socialize more, and meet new people. Or you may need to communicate very important messages now. However, this could also have you travelling a bit more during this time.
SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 22 – DECEMBER 21)
Recent weeks have granted more attention to your financial life, Sagittarius, and this trend will continue on for more weeks ahead. On a positive note, you could be cranking right along to make big moves on making more money or paying off a large expense. However, if money seems to be slipping through your fingers like water, it’s time to really focus on ways to be more fiscally strategic.
CAPRICORN (DECEMBER 22 – JANUARY 19)
You’re on fire and the entire world knows it, Capricorn! Not only are you more assertive, charismatic, and magnetic than normal, but you are likely moving a mile a minute. This fiery passion is igniting all areas of your life, so it’s important now to dust off your vision board and know what you want, and then seize the day to make it happen! Go for it and you could conquer it!
AQUARIUS (JANUARY 20 – FEBRUARY 18)
It appears that there’s a lot of action happening behind the scenes for you right now, Aquarius—but in truth, this could be quite positive, or instead stressing you out a bit. For instance, some of you may be so deeply invested in developing a project away from prying eyes that you’re eager to tackle or announce it further down the line. If for some reason there’s some drama or fears stirring instead, it may be helpful to connect with a healer or therapist.
PISCES (FEBRUARY 19 – MARCH 20)
While you always have an innate magnetism, and are often quite liked by a wide assortment of people, your popularity is popping off like fireworks right now, Pisces! It’s likely your social calendar is entirely packed and you’re mixing and mingling with so many friends and at events. Instead, some of you may passionately be pursuing a major goal, and you are about to grab that golden apple.
