The Week Ahead for Libra
Monday, 29 Dec – Sunday, 4 Jan
You may not be feeling full of the joys of the season, even if you are surrounded by people you love and involved in the celebrations. The reason is a dreary aspect between Mercury and Saturn/Neptune. This is enough to coat any positive event with a layer of doom and gloom. Well, maybe that’s an exaggeration, but this astro-scape is far from jubilant. What it is though is purposeful. If you’ve got a job to do, if you’ve got a problem to solve, and if you need to make a serious plan, you have the planets behind you. Librans can be procrastinators and prevaricators, but with a full moon to boot (Saturday) it’s time to nail your colours to the mast.
It is time.

Monday, 22 Dec – Sunday, 28 Dec
Peace and good will to all men is a theme issuing long and loud under this week’s Venus-Neptune square. It isn’t always easy to forgive and forget or to move on without unpicking a tapestry of old scores and sores but it needs to be done. People will fail you, events won’t live up to expectations but, in the end, it’s love that matters. For some Librans, this is going to be the most romantic Christmas ever, for others the most magical for other reasons, yet there will be those who are going through such a difficult time, the season of joy has no meaning at all. All things change over time.
Love is the answer.

The Month Ahead for Libra
January 2026
Start the year with a grand clear-out and you won’t look back. Aside from decluttering the home, there are certain aspects of your existence that have become a habit – and a bad habit at that. Give anything covered with cobwebs the boot, and that may mean a friendship or some other situation that is draining your energy and optimism. People-pleasing isn’t worth putting your life on hold for. The second half of January is the most eventful, and if you’re not already ripping up contracts and making big changes to your lifestyle, roll up your sleeves!

The Year Ahead for Libra
There were hints of things to come last year, and they are here with bells on in 2026… Uranus will establish itself in an area in which it can broaden your horizons in a variety of ways – travel, skills and experience – enabling some of you to spread your influence and attain a higher, even a global profile. Yet both these planetary changes will involve disruption. You may have to make a long-distance move or end a partnership, but what is in store for you necessitates a sacrifice. Front of the queue here are September-born Librans; the October birthdays have a smoother ride yet not quite as many dreamy events.
