December 31 | Moon enters Gemini

Mercury enters Capricorn
The fastest planet in our cosmos, Mercury shifts plates every few weeks. As we enter a new calendar year on January 1, 2026, Mercury enters Capricorn, where it will remain until January 17, 2026.
Movement of Mercury is movement of our mind. Each time the planet transits between signs, it brings a shift in focus, perspective, intention and thinking. In Capricorn it brings grounding, calm focus and practical application of what we want to bring into the new year.
We already have a planetary meeting in Capricorn of the Sun, Venus and Mars this week. We are nestled in the land of Capricorn. This is where our visions of what we want to create require commitment. Where our hope demands to be grounded in action. Mercury joining the meeting brings practical planning, focused thinking and awareness of where we want to spend our time, energy and inner and outer resources.
Mercury in Capricorn invites us to consciously and intentionally choose how we want to experience life – and clarify what it takes to make that a reality.
Full Moon in Cancer
The first lunation of the year takes place this week. The Full Moon in Cancer on January 3, 2026 brings nourishing balance to our cosmic alignment of planets in Capricorn. It is an emotional, intuitive and surrendered time that invites us to tune into the inner compass within each of us. It helps us discern what is meaningful, true and aligned.
Cancer, a water sign, makes us sensitive and draws us to our inner waters. It speaks to our inner needs and where they are met versus where they require attention. It illuminates our desires and the way we can become our own safe space of medicine, love and structure.
This lunation asks us to take a moment and tune in. To ensure that we are building towards what is true and moving towards what really matters to us.
