"And this one kicks off in a secret third way-a growing intensity of motivation that doesn't announce itself before it makes a move. Many of us may be cooking up ambitious schemes for the year ahead that we're not yet ready to make public. Many will be getting crystal clear on our desires and unmet needs, and then creating a detailed plan that will set us up for success (versus playing it by ear and hoping for the best)."
"January begins with a pileup of planets in Capricorn, which includes a rare triple conjunction of the Sun, Venus, and Mars. This is the time for planning (maybe one of the best places go in January, if you need trip inspo), organizing your time, and thinking like a project manager. In 2026 specifically, it'll also be a time of heated tension, keeping your cards close to your chest, and getting quiet enough to hear where your hunger is leading you next."
January opens with a subtle but growing intensity that motivates secret planning and the formation of detailed ambitions. A Capricorn pileup and a rare Sun-Venus-Mars conjunction emphasize organizing, time management, and project-style thinking for travel and goals. Early January rebirth of Venus and Mars (especially January 6–9) ignites new stories around relationships, desire, ambition, and creativity with clarifying but tense energy. Travel companions may bicker; channeling that energy into a shared, ambitious itinerary can be productive. Temptation and thrill-seeking may appear; curiosity and introspection can help manage impulses that might otherwise become destructive.
