"Movement of Mercury is movement of our minds. Each time the planet transitions between signs, it brings a shift of focus, perspective, intent, and thinking. In Capricorn, it brings grounding, quiet focus, and practical application of what we want to bring into the new year. We already have a planetary gathering in Capricorn this week of the Sun, Venus, and Mars. We are ensconced in Capricorn land. This is where our visions of what we want to create ask for commitment."
"Mercury joining the gathering brings practical planning, focused thinking, and awareness of where we are choosing to dedicate our our time, energy, and inner and outer resources. Mercury in Capricorn invites us to consciously, and intentionally, choose how we want to experience life-and illuminate what is required to make that real. Full Moon in Cancer This week holds the first lunation of the year. The full Moon in Cancer on January 3, 2026, brings a nurturing balance to our cosmic lineup of planets in Capricorn."
Mercury moves into Capricorn on January 1, 2026, and remains until January 17, shifting the mind toward structure, disciplined planning, and practical application. A planetary gathering of the Sun, Venus, and Mars in Capricorn emphasizes commitment and dedication of time, energy, and resources to long-term goals. The week’s lunar movements begin with the Moon in Taurus on December 28 and Gemini on December 31, then enter nurturing Cancer on January 2. The full Moon in Cancer on January 3 brings emotional, intuitive, and surrendered energy that balances Capricorn’s outward focus with inward needs.
