At this time, power issues and control questions will be played out with business, property, finance and possessions. While Pluto is in your Second House, the arrival of Jupiter (from July 2026) in your Eighth House (which classically rules other people’s money, homes and assets) suggests a massive change this year.
Consequently, you get a double whammy. If your financial affairs, business interests, possessions or property interests are tied up with issues about willpower or self-control – well, that’s normal. In fact, you become stronger by doing your own thing your own way and pushing back.
♑Capricorn – It’s about power or no power, and if you win or don’t win the money, business or lifestyle game in these next few weeks. In all cases, it’s an excellent time to ask yourself what you value most. The bits and pieces of yourself and your life budget which may have been suppressed or ignored now require attention. It’s where your buried treasure is.
Once you uncover it, you will be in a great position to know yourself, set your terms and create your world according to your own value system – never mind other people’s. Pluto in ♒Aquarius and the other transits are about self-control to give you control and willpower to empower you. The numbers are – whatever they are. You know your values.
♑Capricorn – Neptune will finally weave its last threads in connection with three areas of your life now. The first is your siblings – your brothers and sisters. The second is your way with words – your communication with the world. The third is your travel commitments – the short journeys you take either in your own car or. more adventurously, on planes, boats or scooters.
The years of escapism and confusion (yes, confusion) are over from January 26th, 2026. The boundaries return or you will reinstate them. All that is evident this week, ♑Capricorn, with another huge change near February 14th, 2026, when some heavy restrictions are lifted.
♑Capricorn – It’s that time of year after Christmas and into New Year parties, weekend events and school holiday questions when your heart is in the change zone. You either feel trapped by your old position on things and need to move forward or you have to because suddenly changing circumstances push you into taking a new view. Whether you choose a U-turn in your destiny or it chooses you, it all means progress now. Don’t look back. This cycle ends at Easter – possibly because of the school term or maybe a vacation decision involving your partner.
In any case, ♑Capricorn, be you single, child-free, married or with a baby on the way, this week is the same message. The revolution sets you free. The revolution will not be televised. It stops in April 2026.
♑Capricorn – You will be empowered in the money, property and lifestyle game in these years and also experience final chapters which bring a big end chapter with them – even ‘finishing’ a bank or an income source and so on. Situations which other people become incredibly intense about can’t help but affect you too. You have a whopping sign-off decision in January/February 2026. For lots of you, this will involve the house or flat. Real estate. Nevertheless, try to stay as detached as you can about what is going on. ♑Capricorn, the purpose of this Pluto cycle is the same. Rich or poor, unless you dig deeper and find out what and who you value most and what is really priceless, you’ll never have control.
This new career, unpaid work or academic cycle is about an ending and a beginning. Two chapters close near January 26th, then February 14th, 2026. The narrator suggests, “It’s time you went more deeply into this success and status question, you know.” And, one way or another, you will be asked to do so. In the process, you’ll find yourself finally coming to terms with aspects of your ambition, position or mission that have either been confused to date or completely lost in the fog.
This cycle is about discovering what will help you keep it real (again) above all other things. What will put you in a clearer position? A firmer position? What will allow you to truly feel as if you are back on dry land?
♊Gemini – On January 26th, 2026, the confused and confusing situation in your career, at university/college or with your unpaid role stops. No more shifting tides or fluctuating horizons. No more fuzzy vision. This cycle is also about your part-time or full-time job. If you aren’t in the workforce, it’s about your duties at home as a carer or parent and so on. You’ll pull some new clarity towards you now.
It will probably be a colleague, client, boss, customer or other workplace connection at the heart of the clearing-up process. If you have full-time home duties, it may be your nanny, your child, the fruit delivery man or anyone who is around your home ‘workspace’ on a regular basis. If a certain someone is now infiltrating your life and your space to the point where it’s clear he or she has no idea about boundaries, you need to do all you can to start a clear sign-off.
♊Gemini – This cycle with ⚷Chiron in ♈Aries now, Neptune in ♈Aries from late January and Saturn in ♈Aries from mid-February 2026 will alter the state of play in your social life with your friends and in the groups you belong to. You can see it coming now, perhaps, with invitations around those times or diary dates.
These transits can make it almost impossible to hang on to the way things used to be as well as the way you view your place in the group or with a particular friend. It might be social media. It might be your sports team or your band. If an entire group of people is involved, what happens next is escapism. A way out. A scuba dive out of what is real or normal.
♊Gemini – Karma keeps you on a loop until July 2026, ♊Gemini, in terms of the property market, in the building industry, in mortgages, in tenancy laws and even in the most basic home-related areas. I am sure you know life 18-19 years ago will continue to affect your domestic life in these years. The big picture reveals karma by location for you, maybe more than once and, at the very least, closure with how you live, where you live and the nature of everything from the garden to the kitchen ceiling. Wider loops in the community or in your country will have a karmic effect in your life which means you will end this cycle with final closure in terms of the domestic situation you began with.
♊Gemini – Your career, unpaid vocation or academic career will become real-world again on January 26th, 2026. Until then, contain and control what is going on. When people do not know who they are, they lose themselves in someone else or even in a whole alternative professional or academic vocational or career reality. Are you that person now? Or is your staff member, employer, colleague, professor or classmate?
Nobody is going to want an ordinary normal life now. This can be a final period of total escapism for your mind, body and spirit. As always with Neptune, ask yourself where all this is getting you. And by the way, a long period of restriction and heavy ring-fenced situations stops on February 14th, 2026.
