Tension or confusion
The Sun transits in square in the tenth field in Capricorn , where it conjuncts the New Moon on January 18th. Your Mars has also been in Capricorn since December 15th and will remain dissonant throughout the astrological month. The fast-moving planets continue their trines in the ninth field in Sagittarius , then move into Capricorn themselves: Venus as early as December 24th, Mercury on January 1st. Venus will be fast enough to begin a good sextile in the eleventh field in Aquarius on January 17th. Among the slow-moving planets, Pluto in Aquarius is sextile the first decan, Jupiter in Cancer is square the third until January 11th, then returns to involve the second. In short, some tension is possible, perhaps just confusion or tiredness. In particular, the days of December 22nd and 27th, and January 3rd, 4th, 9th, 10th, 17th, and 18th seem challenging. The best days will be December 23 and 29, January 1, 5, 14, 15 and 19.
Don't rush but be prepared
After a few months of activity, dynamic, perhaps a little tiring but generous rewards, the passage of your Mars into square (on December 15th) already signals some complications. Considering that, one after the other, Venus and Mercury will also join forces in the same dissonant position, this phase between the end and beginning of the year promises to be more challenging, yet less rewarding. Serious problems aren't guaranteed to arise or resurface; it's simply possible that not everything will go as you'd like or expected, that certain investments of energy won't yield the desired results, that you'll have to accept some disappointment or sacrifice. Moreover, the interplay between the planets in the tenth field and Jupiter in the fourth suggests the opportunity to slow down and reduce your demands, precisely to avoid wasting energy in a dispersive (or wasteful) manner. I remind you, however, that 2026 will be an intense year, bringing with it important changes and accomplishments as the slow-moving planets gradually move into their new zodiacal residences: Pluto has already begun its sextile , Saturn and Neptune will enter your sign between January and February, Uranus will begin another sextile from late April, and Jupiter itself will finish its laborious square to gift you a splendid trine from July! So there's no need to rush: even if patience isn't among your most natural qualities, it's best to embrace it in its constructive guise of tenacity, to prepare yourself for new developments and, in the meantime—for now—simply work out their meaning, or rather, their direction.
Talk (and listen) more
The main problem this time is the accumulation of domestic, family, work, and social commitments... while your own needs remain somewhat on the back burner. It's also true that the tenth field is a sector linked to prospects, ambitions, and even personal fulfillment, so the ongoing transits serve to draw attention to your future: to what you want to do, but to the extent that you can do it. This requires and requires objective assessments of the balances to be maintained: financial, managerial, and relational. In short, you have every right to defend your needs and desires, but keep in mind that you are not isolated individuals but rather belong to and participate in relationships of various kinds. In particular, it will be important not to neglect your partner and to share not only leisure activities or current initiatives but above all values, projects, and perspectives on your shared future. Even if you sometimes prefer to avoid sensitive topics, for peace of mind or to avoid being bombarded with unsolicited advice, try to confide more, involving loved ones in your hopes or, if necessary, your doubts. This is how relationships are strengthened. Some disagreement is possible with family members, ex-spouses, and various relatives, especially for financial or financial reasons, or for complex decisions to be made. Perhaps these anniversaries will offer a more relaxed atmosphere for discussion, while obviously avoiding unpleasant arguments. You can say something; perhaps you can listen to something more.
First decade
Mars is dissonant until December 28th, Venus from December 24th to January 1st, followed by Mercury from January 1st to 8th. In short, it seems like the holiday season will demand the most commitment (and relative patience) from you! Don't add to the strain by feeling bad, and especially don't take it out on loved ones: a little adaptability will suffice...
Second decade
Mars square you from December 28th to January 10th, with Venus until the 9th and Mercury from the 8th to the 14th. Family and work commitments could pile up for you too, with some annoying setbacks not ruled out. Resuming work after Epiphany should be handled calmly and, above all, with clarity: the time spent organizing will be well spent!
Third decade
Jupiter 's square continues until January 11th, while Mars 's will be more incisive starting on the 10th. The fast-moving planets will also be dissonant: Venus from January 9th to 17th, Mercury from January 14th to 20th. Be careful because you'll be dissatisfied, easily irritated, and impulsive, so you might say or do the wrong thing. Be especially careful with financial decisions.
