Your horoscopes for the week 12 January 2026 to 18 January 2026
Aries – March 21 to April 20
This week’s stars are all about finding your true path and following your destiny. Draw inspiration from birthday great, entertainer Eartha Kitt “The river is constantly turning and bending, and you never know where it’s going to go and where you’ll wind up. Following the bend in the river and staying on your own path means that you are on the right track. Don’t let anyone deter you from that.” On the weekend, take an old idea and spin it into something new.
Taurus – April 21 to May 21
There’s no denying that 2026 will be full of changes and uncertainties, but don’t let the worries and ‘what-ifs’ drain your life of spontaneity and enjoyment. The Sun and Uranus encourage you to take a giant leap of faith into the future, as you think creatively and love compassionately. Inspiration for the week is from civil rights leader Martin Luther King (who was born on January 15, 1929) “Faith is taking the first step, even when you don’t see the whole staircase.”
Gemini – May 22 to June 21
This week, no less than five planets (the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars and Jupiter) are jumping through your financial zones. Which could result in a massive spending spree on your part – particularly at the ongoing New Year Sales. Remember – if you buy something you don’t need, it’s not a bargain! When it comes to a work project, the more thorough you are, the better the final result will be. Slow and steady (not a Gemini speciality) wins the race.
Cancer – June 22 to July 23
It’s another week when five planets highlight the delicate balancing act between being a strong, autonomous individual and having close, nurturing relationships. (It’s a Crab tendency to underdo your independent side and overdo your needy, clingy side.) Uranus also encourages you to plan future adventures and dream exciting dreams. So your motto for the week comes from birthday great, entertainer Eartha Kitt “I don’t chase dreams – I catch them.”
Leo – July 24 to August 23
Have you been feeling like a lazy Lion or a procrastinating Cat? This week Saturn and Uranus encourage you to restructure your diet and exercise program, plus reinvent your daily work routine. Time to eat more nutritiously, exercise more regularly and collaborate with colleagues more often. If you tick these boxes, then you’ll improve (and transform) your health and career in 2026. The weekend is wonderful for finishing a project and/or going on an adventure.
Virgo – August 24 to September 23
Are some of your platonic relationships running on autopilot? Have you been too busy to catch-up with close friends? With five planets powering through your peer group zones, it’s all about friendships this week Virgo – how to find them, nurture them and keep them. So it’s the perfect time to do something special with your best mates – organise a lunch, see a movie, go to a concert or plan a weekend away (preferably in a beautiful natural environment).
Libra – September 24 to October 23
With the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars still visiting your home zone, expect big domestic changes in 2026 (you could renovate, buy, sell or move). Don’t be in too much of a rush … make sure you do all the research and planning that’s required. As polymath (and birthday great) Benjamin Franklin observed “By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.” The weekend favours a quick catch-up with a friend or a spontaneous adventure with a relative.
Scorpio – October 24 to November 22
The Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars are all visiting your local and interstate travel zone so many Scorpios will take off on a business trip or overdue holiday. With Pluto (your ruler) transiting through Aquarius until 2044, many Scorpios will undergo a major transformation where you gradually become more autonomous and authentic. It’s time to morph into the real you! Your motto is from birthday great Eartha Kitt “The price we pay for being ourselves is worth it.”
Sagittarius – November 23 to December 21
Five planets spotlight financial matters and self-esteem issues, so you could make a large purchase, sign a contract, re-do your budget or draw up a new savings plan. Confidence is high as you celebrate your strengths and give yourself a pat on the back. Courtesy of the Sun/Uranus trine, the weekend is wonderful for upending your usual routine and going on an exciting adventure or making the most of an unusual opportunity that comes your way. Experiment and explore!
Capricorn – December 22 to January 20
It’s your week to shine, turn on the charm and get things done! The Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars are all visiting Capricorn and Lady Luck is calling. So make sure you are ready, willing and able to capitalise on good fortune when it comes along. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. On the weekend, the Sun/Saturn link is fabulous for turning abstract pipe dreams into achievable, doable projects (with the help of someone special in your local neighbourhood).
Aquarius – January 21 to February 19
With five planets visiting your humanitarian and helping zone for most of the week, the focus is on assisting those around you. So your motto comes from Capricorn birthday great, Muhammad Ali “Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on earth.” Then the pace picks up on the weekend, when Venus transits into your sign and the Sun/Uranus connection livens up your social life in unexpected ways. Prepare to be at your quirky Aquarian best!
Pisces – February 20 to March 20
Your involvement with a group, class, club or organisation has other people looking to you for a helping hand. Use your networking skills to drum up support, and don’t be afraid to ask others for assistance when you need it. With four planets in Capricorn, things are moving slowly and you’ll have to be extra patient. Your weekly motto is from birthday great Martin Luther King “Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, ‘What are you doing for others?’
