After a remarkably decisive start to the year, the get-it-done feel of Capricorn season continues to dominate this week. But despite your best efforts, things may not be taking off at the pace you’d hoped they would.
As the moon moves through its darkest phase, reflecting, integrating, and realigning your goals is the focus for now. As much as you may be yearning for something certain or guaranteed, Saturn and Neptune in Pisces continue to cast a long, ambiguous shadow. Remember, rarely in life are we dealt a 100 per cent sure thing. Often, there is no perfect moment. But starting somewhere is better than not starting at all. So, begin where you are, and get comfortable with the idea that things will shift and evolve in the coming days/weeks/months.
On Sunday, there’s plenty of support from the sky to say or do something to advance your 2026 goals. It won’t necessarily be an easy conversation, but it’s worth having.
ARIES AND ARIES RISING
If something or someone didn’t quite go to plan by the end of last week, don’t let it dampen your spirits. It’s all very much a part of the process. That big decision or move you were looking to make? It’s still got legs, but maybe it isn’t as straightforward as you initially thought. Take setbacks in your stride and trust the big lofty ideas just need a little stress test before you break ground and plant the seeds you want to sow this year.
TAURUS AND TAURUS RISING
Despite the best intentions, a roadblock could be slowing progress on what seems like a straightforward plan of attack. Maybe that post-grad course isn’t quite as easy to apply for, or maybe you can’t work out what visa you need to pull off the big overseas relocation you’ve been dreaming about. It’s normal for a knockback to sting, but it doesn’t mean you should give up. Don’t assume just because it’s hard that it’s not possible. Keep plodding, dust yourself off and regroup. You’ve got this.
GEMINI AND GEMINI RISING
So, you finally decided to rip the Band-Aid off last week, but despite your best efforts, things aren’t magically falling into place. Patience isn’t a Gemini strength, so the fact that things aren’t coming together the second you decide you’re ready to start could be incredibly frustrating. Still, it’s not a reason to throw in the towel. Those hard conversations still need to be had. Dig in and keep at it, you’re on the right track—it might just be a little more crooked than you’d hoped.
CANCER AND CANCER RISING
The truth bombs continue this week as the sky encourages you to get honest about what you want and need in your most important relationships. If you’re on the receiving end, maybe your partner’s feedback hasn’t landed quite as gently as they intended. Chances are, you’re not feeling much beyond needing to lick your wounds. Resist the urge to scurry back into your shell and shut down. This discussion still needs your care and attention. Sunday is your moment to try again.
LEO AND LEO RISING
You’re off to the races and ready to just do it, no matter what it takes. Sure, the first seven days of your fiery new game plan may not have gone exactly to plan, but that’s not a reason to throw in the towel. Take note of the setbacks and consider how you need to tweak or revise what you’ve committed to in 2026. Maybe the goal posts have shifted, or perhaps the way you’re getting there just isn’t exactly how you imagined at the start of last week. Different isn’t a problem, it’s just different.
VIRGO AND VIRGO RISING
The serious conversations about pleasure, creativity and maybe even children continue this week. With the final days of Capricorn season continuing to focus on these realms, desire is at the forefront of your mind. If you’ve already started the conversations out loud, maybe things have hit a little snag. Still, that’s not a reason to ditch them entirely. These last few weeks of Saturn in Pisces are offering the perfect blend of flexibility to keep things clear, but subject to change. Get comfortable with something being ok “for right now” rather than the blueprint for the rest of your life.
LIBRA AND LIBRA RISING
The focus on your home and family unit continues this week as the final days of Capricorn season ask you to double down and give that space your complete attention. While the past week may not have been quite as fruitful as you’d hoped, it shouldn’t be a cause for giving up on your 2026 dreams. The momentary speed bumps are all part of the bigger story at play. Rather than spiralling on what didn’t go right, consider what the opposing energies actually had to offer. What did they reveal about the flaws in your plans?
SCORPIO AND SCORPIO RISING
So, you’ve bought the domain, you’ve set up your email, and maybe even made a start on your new website. But why isn’t it all coming together quite as fast as you’d hope? This week, no amount of deftly used AI is going to fast-track whatever you’re cooking up. Unfortunately, this is a long, slow climb, but that’s not a reason to shelve the idea. Good things take time and patience, and almost no one does the long game quite as well as you. So go forth, and do exactly that.
SAGITTARIUS AND SAGITTARIUS RISING
You’ve made the calls, you’ve done the spreadsheets, but something still isn’t quite sticking. You’re not imagining it; there is definitely some part of your new cash plan that you haven’t completely nailed. Use the minor setbacks of last week to refine, revise and review your strategy. You’re on the right track, but you haven’t landed it yet. Be patient, good things—including income growth—rarely happen overnight.
CAPRICORN AND CAPRICORN RISING
The final week of your home season brings more of the good stuff—all the grit, determination and focus you need to make a grand idea come to life. Chances are you’ve already started, but maybe things aren’t developing at the speed you’d hoped. Fear not, that thing is not dead in the water, not by a long shot. Use this week to reflect on how your goals held up to a little opposition last week and consider revising what you’re aiming for before locking it down around next week’s new moon.
AQUARIUS AND AQUARIUS RISING
OK, you know what you want to ditch this year, but maybe you had a little wobble last week. Despite your best intentions, things didn’t go to plan, and before you know it, you’re left on the starting blocks second-guessing if this is really the best time to try. This week, you’re moving beyond that setback and getting another chance to go for gold. Reflect on what blew you off course last week and use it to inform your next steps. It’s time to begin again.
PISCES AND PISCES RISING
The drama continues this week—although at least it’s probably not happening front and centre for you. Still, there’s every chance you’ll be drawn into the “excitement” courtesy of a good friend. As an energetically absorbent type, not getting sucked in will be easier said than done. Once Venus moves into Aquarius (Sunday), you may feel the need to lean out. Honour the urge—sometimes stepping back is the kindest thing you can do—for everyone involved.
