Initial tiredness
Mars ended its opposition on December 15th, but at the beginning of the astrological month, the fast-moving planets are still in the seventh field in Sagittarius . They too will end their oppositions: Venus on December 24th and Mercury on January 1st; in fact, Venus will have time to trine the ninth field in Aquarius on January 17th. As for the slower planets, Pluto is trine the first decan at the beginning Aquarius , while Saturn and Neptune in Pisces are square the third. Overall, some initial fatigue may be noticeable, but the atmosphere will gradually improve, heralding a more decisive recovery for the next astrological month. In the meantime, be patient on days like December 26th, January 2nd, 8th, 15th, and 16th. The days of December 23rd and 28th, and January 1st, 5th, 9th, and 19th will be calmer and more productive.
Throw away old things
Your Mercury has been in opposition for a long time: first from October 29th to November 19th, then again from December 12th, and as we've seen, it will remain in opposition until January 1st. After a somewhat confusing, at times nervous period ( Mars was also in opposition from November 4th to December 15th), 2026 begins with a stellium in the eighth field , which seems to usher you into a different phase, partly of relaxation but above all of processing, transformation, and regeneration. Are you familiar with the tradition of celebrating New Year's Eve by throwing away something old? Here it is. It was a ritual that once literally involved objects, but which also had a powerful symbolic meaning. Before entering the future, even before good wishes and good intentions, it is necessary to free yourself from the burdens of the past! Because only in this way is it possible to make room for what can move forward, grow, and bear fruit; only in this way can experience become a creative resource and not become bogged down in sterile nostalgia or habits. This is what the planets in the eighth field invite you to experience and express: Mercury in understanding, Venus in relationships, Mars in action... and the Sun —let's not forget—in the essence of a more authentic identity. New (or rather, renewed) motivations, new desires, and new perspectives point to equally new paths to follow; but you'll do so more easily without the burden of burdens that no longer belong to you, serve you, or are your responsibility.
Do your part
Some lingering stress is possible until the end of December, with Mercury still opposing you. On the other hand, the last few months have asked a lot of you, and it's not certain they'll have given you back in proportion: fatigue is making itself felt. In theory, it would be appropriate to slow down, but in practice, it won't be easy, considering the latest work urgencies and preparations for the holidays. Speaking of which, you probably won't be enthusiastic about the usual family celebrations, which you'll welcome out of affection or at least respect; it's also possible that there are delicate matters pending with any relatives, adding to the uneasiness. In any case, you'll prefer to meet up with friends or participate in unusual social or cultural events, away from home or even out of town! You may have to restrain yourself a bit, so as not to overstep your financial limits, which must be kept under control during this period. However, even with some sacrifice, you'll manage to have fun and unwind. In addition to friends or new acquaintances, always welcome, make sure not to neglect your partner: there may have been misunderstandings, disagreements, or unpleasant arguments lately, but now is the right time to clarify and mend, as long as you do your part to foster a more honest and open dialogue. After the holidays, your return to work may be a bit slow, but you'll quickly regain clarity and motivation, perhaps by starting interesting projects or evaluating opportunities, proposals, and new collaborative contacts. The second half of January will already be more effective, and good news will follow in February and then in spring!
First decade
While Pluto continues its trine , your Sun isn't directly affected by the ongoing transits. Only Venus moves into trine on January 17th (a few days earlier than the other fast-moving planets). In short, a fairly peaceful period awaits you, but with greater opportunities and satisfaction in the second half. There are intriguing opportunities for singles!
Second decade
Mercury remains in opposition until December 26th, leading to a Christmas that may be a little subdued, perhaps disappointing, or simply boring. Later, however, you'll rediscover the determination and creativity to organize fun activities with friends or your partner. Don't expect too much from yourself or others: even a well-deserved rest deserves respect.
Third decade
Venus ' opposition will affect you until December 24th, and Mercury 's opposition will last from December 26th to January 1st. Meanwhile, Saturn and Neptune continue their squares, but you'll gradually feel more at peace. You may have to make some sacrifices in planning the holidays or any trips, but this won't diminish the value of spending time with loved ones.
