The Sun has powered to the most prominent position of its annual journey in Capricorn, but needs to shrug off the confusing and draining influence of Neptune, as does Venus, who joins the Sun and Mars on Wednesday. The two will be closely in sync through to the middle of January, and can see us all appreciating more traditional and well-established connections.
As we reach Christmas Day, the Moon glides from friendly Aquarius into sensitive Pisces, so a jollier start to the day can be followed by a mellower vibe. As we reach the end of the week, the Quarter Moon in Aries, along with the alliance between the Sun and Mars in Capricorn, brings a more impulsive energy to bear, but one where we can consider the things we wish to attain, or target our energy in a more focused and assertive way.
Aries 21 March – 20 April
Your appetite for adventure and connection grows stronger, but so can the temptation to chase idealistic dreams. Before leaping into new experiences, ask what you truly want – whether freedom, meaning, or perhaps a deeper sense of belonging. As Venus moves into Capricorn, your focus shifts from exploration to purpose. It’s time to build connections that are both inspiring and supportive of your long-term goals.Taurus 21 April – 21 May
Intuition and insight run deep, revealing what’s been hidden within a friendship or group dynamic. A web of secrecy may begin to unravel, urging you to seek truth rather than settle for illusion. As Venus changes signs, your perspective widens, inspiring fresh adventures that expand your world. Be open to different cultures, ideas and people, as each connection can shape your future in remarkable ways.Gemini 22 May – 21 June
Fresh advice could stir something within and urge you to focus on your goals. Listen closely to those who see your potential and challenge you to aim higher but filter out wishful thinking or confusion that could see you moving in the wrong direction. In addition, your desires deepen and commitment calls. Whether in love or finances, you’ll crave something lasting and real – ensure it’s worth the investment.Cancer 22 June – 23 July
Your daily rhythm softens, which can bring better experiences with co-workers and gentle reminders to nurture yourself. Acts of kindness, whether given or received, can lift your spirits and restore balance. A little self-care now goes a long way towards healing mind and body. As Venus moves into Capricorn, relationships become stable yet deeply affectionate. Warmth and tenderness flow easily between you and close ones.Leo 24 July – 23 August
Sensing mixed signals or uncertainty about how someone truly feels? If so, take time to ask questions and listen closely before drawing conclusions. Insight will come through calm, honest discussion. As relator Venus enters your lifestyle zone, your focus shifts towards work, practical matters and productivity. Businesslike connections prove valuable, helping you refine your goals and increase your earning potential.Virgo 24 August – 23 September
Do be selective about your social circle, especially when it comes to festive gatherings. Trust your instincts about who uplifts your energy and who drains it. The best guests will make celebrations sparkle. Plus, seasonal events could bring both love and exciting collaborations, blending pleasure with potential. Yet say yes to opportunities that feel genuine, and your warmth and charm will open doors to new beginnings.Libra 24 September – 23 October
Conversations may highlight issues around relationships or the finer details of an agreement. Misunderstandings can be gently cleared up if you stay open and talk things over honestly. Your attention also turns to home life and preparations for the holiday week. It’s the perfect time to organise, delegate and encourage teamwork. By sharing responsibilities, you’ll have more space to enjoy the warmth and laughter.Scorpio 24 October – 22 November
Feel tempted to indulge by spending on pleasures that lift your mood but offer little lasting value? A moment of enjoyment is fine, but financial mindfulness will help you feel more secure and empowered. As Venus enters your communication zone, your sharp instincts and persuasive charm make you a natural negotiator. Whether in business or daily dealings, you’ll know when to compromise and when to stand firm.Sagittarius 23 November – 21 December
With Venus angling towards Neptune, it’s time to do something kind and restorative for yourself that nourishes your spirit rather than drains it. You may feel pulled into family dynamics or emotional undercurrents, but you don’t have to engage if it disturbs your peace. Your focus also shifts to practical matters, including thoughtful gift-giving. Be wise with spending, as a heartfelt homemade gesture can be a winner.Capricorn 22 December – 20 January
Inspiration may come in waves, yet to create something outstanding you’ll need focus. Don’t let distractions blur your plans – channel awesome ideas into a tangible format that reflects your quiet brilliance. As Venus enters your sign, the spotlight shifts to you. It’s the perfect time to refresh your image, boost confidence and expand your social circle. New friendships with people of influence can open valuable doors.Aquarius 21 January – 19 February
Generosity flows easily, but before you overspend on gifts or social outings, take a moment to plan thoughtfully. It’s the sentiment, not the price tag, that matters most. A sound budget and a creative touch can make giving deeply rewarding. As Venus steps into Capricorn, the mood shifts inward. You’ll crave peace, reflection and simple pleasures. Rest now, and you’ll soon feel recharged, inspired and ready to greet the new year.Pisces 20 February – 20 March
With Venus angling towards Neptune, your natural charisma shines in professional settings, attracting the attention of people who can help you move forward. Be open to advice from those with experience and let your natural talent speak for itself. As charming Venus enters your friendship zone, the pace lightens and your social life sparkles. Getting out and about can lift your spirits and help forge meaningful connections.Planets Now
