January 1st begins with Mercury making its final square to Neptune in Pisces, inviting reflection on intuition, imagination, and trusting subtle inner messages without needing immediate clarity. As Mercury enters Capricorn later that day, joined by the Sun, Venus, and Mars, the tone shifts toward realism, boundaries, responsibility, and discerning what truly deserves your time and energy as the year begins. Chiron stations direct at 22 deg Aries on January 2nd, marking a turning point in personal healing and sovereignty and signaling readiness to move forward after a period of deep internal work. Yet sensitivity remains heightened through its square to Jupiter in Cancer. The January 3rd Cancer Full Moon brings an emotional and heart-centered recalibration, activating themes of belonging, safety, unconditional love, and emotional truth as the lunar energy aligns with Sirius, our Spiritual Sun. Together, these transits describe an initiation into 2026 that asks for stronger boundaries, deeper self-trust, and a renewed connection between heart and purpose, setting the stage for a very active and forward-moving January.
