January 2026

Ace of Pentacles: Cancer, it seems there is a newfound sense of confidence and ease rising up inside of you this month. January holds the energy of a fresh start that feels grounded rather than overwhelming, and the Ace of Pentacles points to a tangible beginning (a new job, home, car, or contract) that supports your desire for safety, routine, or financial peace.
You may start to see the initial signs of an opportunity born out of last year’s labor; while Mercury’s retrograde cycle in water signs later this year will ask you to slow down and get comfortable with quiet reflection. Right now you are simply meant to take steps toward something long-lasting. Don’t worry about what you think the “right” way to live your life is. Instead, lean into what (and who) actually feels good for you to invest your time in. In January Your intuition and gut feelings are key to walking you toward the life you desire! Trust that each of the small efforts you make now will build a future version of you who is steadier, more secure, and deeply proud of the foundational “you” that had the courage to build it all.
