Libra Weekly Horoscope | January 5th – January 11th 2026
On January 10th you’ll have an opportunity to put down that burden you’ve been carrying and walk away from an onerous situation. It won’t come easily. There may be a price to pay or you’ll have to answer to some disappointed parties, yet you’ll have your freedom – something you’ve dreamed about for weeks. But what if you’re unable to leave now? What if the responsibility is too heavy or circumstances don’t warrant it? Then you need to make peace with that. Staying because you’re choosing to stay is different than staying because you have to because it allows you to set the terms and not vice-versa.

The only thing more difficult than making a decision is acting on it once it’s been made. You can revisit the whys and wherefores all you like, but the truth is your mind is made up. The only thing left to do is to tell the people whose lives will be impacted by this. It won’t be easy because you don’t like to upset anyone, but this is where you need to mind your own business and let them mind theirs. They’re more than capable of handling their own thoughts and feelings on the matter. In fact this is probably something that should have happened sooner.

Careful, because pent-up frustration could lead to bad decision making on January 10th. It looks like you’re trying to go back in time to make things right. Maybe you’re trying to reconnect to a period when you were riding high or revisit a crossroads where you turned left instead of right. As you should know from those time traveling shows you can’t change what’s happened; if anything you’re at risk of making matters worse. The best solution to your dilemma is to reconnect to who you are now. It’s a truer guide to where you want to go than where you’ve been will ever be.

You may not see yourself as occupying a position of strength, but you do as long as Jupiter is in Cancer. It won’t last forever, but Jupiter will be here long enough for you to secure control over a slippery situation. This could pertain to work, finances, or a family matter. It’s important to recognize that you have the upper hand – especially during the next few weeks when people threaten to withhold their approval or withdraw support. They’re doing this because they can’t manipulate you like they could before so they’re resorting to old tactics. Refuse to play along and you’ll eventually come out on top.

This is a good week to cash in your chips and get out while the getting’s good. A big mistake many people make when things are going their way is to push their luck. It’s true that Jupiter, planet of good fortune, currently occupies a powerful position in your solar horoscope, but its opposition to Venus and Mars on January 8th and 9th shows Jupiter being temporarily compromised, so why stay and pay when you can beat a retreat instead? The beauty of being born under Mercury is that you have no qualms about cutting bait and returning another day when the fish are jumping again.

“Cazimi” is the word astrologers use to describe a planet when it is in the heart of the Sun. A cazimi intensifies the power of the planet and that’s exactly what will happen to your ruler Venus on January 6th. This is the perfect time to cozy up to someone you’ve been courting romantically or professionally. Not only will this person give you what you want, they may even deliver more than you asked for or increase their offer – as long as you let them do the talking. Follow their lead and you’re good; get out ahead and push for more and you break the spell.

Mars is exalted when it’s in Capricorn and since December 15th, you may have found yourself testing a limit or pushing the envelope. Up until now you could say you were just flexing your muscles, but things will get quite serious on January 9th when the Sun conjoins Mars. An exalted cazimi Mars is extremely rare and it will do whatever it takes to get what it wants. If motives are heroic, then you will succeed beyond imagining. If not? Then you could see things take a nasty turn. You don’t want to do anything underhanded when Mars is this powerful because it will only backfire.

Months of anxiety are allayed when Mercury, Jupiter, the Sun, and Venus descend like a marvelous deus ex machina on June 4th to settle disputes, restore losses, and right all wrongs. You may have a hard time believing what you see, but what’s happening is less about miracles and more about the planets finally moving into position and forming the alignment you’ve been waiting for. Indeed, much of our problems stem from the fact that planets don’t act according to our timetable but rather their own.
