The planets are moving in very exciting ways this year which will, astrologically speaking, cause quite a few shake-ups both personally and politically. The first sign of this will be the new moon in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/astrological-events-2026-by-star-sign\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Capricorn<\/a> on January 19\u2014the first major <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/astrological-events-2026-by-star-sign\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">celestial event<\/a> of the year.<\/p>\n<p>Capricorn is an earth sign that represents the power that runs through society\u2014it symbolizes dominance, strong leadership, and stability. It also represents the hierarchical and vertical relationships in society, as well as the political and economic structures that have been developed over time. Simultaneously, a new moon signifies the beginning of things. It is the starting point, so to speak. So we can expect a big shake up of the old rules.<\/p>\n<p>This new moon in Capricorn will occur at 4:52a.m. on January 19. Immediately after that, the moon will begin its move into Aquarius. It will approach Pluto, which is waiting at the entrance to Aquarius. Pluto is said to be the planet of \u201cdestruction and rebirth,\u201d giving us the power to destroy the existing world from the ground up, creating a new one from scratch. Its stay in Aquarius strengthens this power of renewal even more. This is because Aquarius is the sign of novelty, and it tends to signify the creation of something groundbreaking, throwing out existing boundaries, and transcending conventional systems.<\/p>\n<p>But what makes this year an especially transformative one is that it will be happen in conjunction with the high-impact planetary transits of Saturn and Uranus. On February 14, just in time for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/valentines-day-chocolates-2025\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Valentine\u2019s Day<\/a>, the transformative Saturn will enter Aries. Then, on April 26, Uranus, the planet of change, moves into Gemini. To put that in more digestible terms, Saturn will present plenty of new challenges over the next two and a half years, while Uranus will spend about seven years creating new systems and worlds.<\/p>\n<p>I know what you\u2019re thinking: What does all of this mean for me? Well, during such a bold period of change, there will be two types of people: Those who can flexibly keep up with the times and those who can\u2019t or won\u2019t. Those who cling to the old ways of doing things will only be left behind, potentially leading to a decline in luck and fortune. (I\u2019m just the messenger!)<\/p>\n<p>So, what should we change in our daily lives in 2026, for starters? On a personal level, the new moon in January presents varying potential paths for each zodiac sign. Have a look at what approach might work for you, below.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"New Moon in Capricorn\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"ResponsiveImageContainer-eNxvmU cfBbTk responsive-image__image\"   src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/GettyImages-1270551918.jpeg\"\/>Aries<\/p>\n<p>Change the way you work, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/astrological-events-2026-by-star-sign\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Aries<\/a>. In 2026, find a job that you feel is your true calling. Scroll through job search websites or peruse LinkedIn. Or, if you\u2019d like to stay put, research the benefits and programs available to employees at your current workplace. A positive attitude toward work will make a big difference in your overall fortune this year.<\/p>\n<p>Taurus<\/p>\n<p>Expose yourself to different cultures this year, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/astrological-events-2026-by-star-sign\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Taurus<\/a>. Take a keen interest in world affairs. Traveling abroad is a fantastic idea, too, as is accessing foreign news and culture. Having friends from all over the world is a must. Make a conscious approach to a world you have never seen before.<\/p>\n<p>Gemini<\/p>\n<p>Make time in your life to join hands and create daily ritual. For example, when you eat a meal, take a moment to say thanks. Maybe you can get into <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/demystifying-transcendental-meditation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">meditation<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/yoga-boat-pose\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">yoga<\/a>, or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/reformer-pilates-guide\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">pilates<\/a>.

Try not to talk too much about yourself, instead remaining curious and open as to what the other person is feeling. Listening to other\u2019s emotions, thoughts, and values, and incorporating them into your own life, will lead towards a personal evolution.<\/p>\n<p>Leo<\/p>\n<p>This year, is all about revitalizing your stagnant rhythms and becoming more intentional, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.co.uk\/miss-vogue\/article\/leo-traits\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Leo<\/a>. If you are a night person, why not switch it up and become a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/how-to-become-a-morning-person-personal-story\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">morning person<\/a>? Establish new routines and rules for your body and health. Take a walk every before work, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/should-you-stretch-before-or-after-exercise\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">stretch before bed<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/breakfast-mistakes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">don\u2019t skip breakfast<\/a>, and keep your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/how-to-sleep-better-guide-schedule-diet-exercise-beauty\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">sleep patterns<\/a> regular.<\/p>\n<p>Virgo<\/p>\n<p>Spend more time on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/be-like-amanda-seyfried-get-a-hobby-this-year\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">hobbies<\/a> this year, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/astrological-events-2026-by-star-sign\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Virgo<\/a>. If you don\u2019t have any hobbies that immediately spring to mind, try taking up at least one in the coming weeks. Something you find interesting is likely to appear around the time of the new moon on the January 19, so make full use of it. You\u2019ll see the benefits later.<\/p>\n<p>Libra<\/p>\n<p>This year is all about revitalising your physical space, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/astrological-events-2026-by-star-sign\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Libra<\/a>. Clean your kitchen, switch up the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/interior-design-trends-2026\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">interior design<\/a>, redecorate your bedroom, buy new secondhand furniture, etc. This year, it\u2019ll be important that you make your home or room a comfortable and cozy space. Of course you do this anyway, Libra, but pay extra attention to such things this year.<\/p>\n<p>Scorpio<\/p>\n<p>This year is all about learning and gathering new knowledge, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/astrological-events-2026-by-star-sign\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Scorpio<\/a>. In particular, if you\u2019re not tech-y already, it\u2019s worth getting a handle on new devices, gadgets, and new ways of doing things. If you can incorporate such things into your life and use it to your advantage, it could just be the catalyst that will change your life.<\/p>\n<p>Sagittarius<\/p>\n<p>Increase your financial literacy this year, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/astrological-events-2026-by-star-sign\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Sagittarius<\/a>. Learn investment know-how and get to grips with money. You can attend money courses, read up on finances and actually learn what it means to invest. Also, check to see if there are any grants or subsidies that apply to you this year. If you become sensitive or even just aware of financial matters, this could end up enriching your life in the long run.<\/p>\n<p>Capricorn<\/p>\n<p>Take an actual interest in politics this year, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/astrological-events-2026-by-star-sign\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Capricorn<\/a>. Make an effort to learn about global events, and form an opinion about what\u2019s happening in the world. Maybe even try to get involved in activism\u2014in big or small ways. It might just end up being an opportunity to change your life\u2014and the lives of those around you\u2014for the better.<\/p>\n<p>Aquarius<\/p>\n<p>This year is all about throwing out the old and ushering in the new, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/astrological-events-2026-by-star-sign\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Aquarius<\/a>. To start, make a long list all of the things you dislike, all the events you don\u2019t want to attend, and all the things you never want to do. When you write down your big list of \u201cnos,\u201d you will be able to more clearly see what is in fact a very big \u201cyes\u201d for 2026. Trust me, it works.<\/p>\n<p>Pisces<\/p>\n<p>Your desires cannot be achieved alone at the moment, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/astrological-events-2026-by-star-sign\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Pisces<\/a>. By doing things together with others, your wishes will take shape and lead to success. Recruit your friends and others around you, and think specifically about who you might work best with. It can be someone who is already around you, or you can manifest the sort of person you\u2019d like to meet in the future. Then, watch when that person emerges.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A new dawn is upon us.
