The Week Ahead for Virgo
Monday, 29 Dec – Sunday, 4 Jan
These are serious influences but not sad ones. Whether you’re partying for the planet or taking it easy, with Mercury angling Saturn and Neptune, there’s some thinking and planning to do. Sometimes situations look worse than they are in this climate, and even if there is a long road ahead, once you’re on your way, you’ll feel better and brighter. It’s the first step that is the hardest; the move you make when there is no point waiting any more that is the most difficult. Saturday’s full moon falls on the axis of creativity pointing to a delivery of some description before mid-January.
Getting on the road.

Monday, 22 Dec – Sunday, 28 Dec
With Venus and Neptune presiding over the festivities, expect some tears. Tears of happiness in the main but if you are disappointed with the contents of your Christmas stocking, you know where to point the finger. Neptune is the planet of the divine, which we can access by spiritual practices or simply by feeling love, so responding to the call of this cosmic coupling is easy in a way: forgive and forget, look for the higher purpose in what happens and don’t exaggerate minor crimes and misdemeanours. And if you’re among that group of Virgos who may not be sharing the joy, remind yourself that it’s only one day, and there’ll be another next year.
Don’t lose hope or your sense of humour.

The Month Ahead for Virgo
January 2026
Make time for fun and being with people who bring out the joy in you. That way, you’ll sail through January’s choppy waters as if they were liquid gold, which in a way, they are. You may have been questioning whether a job or a relationship is right for you, and hoping that events would help you make up your mind. And the cosmos has answered your plea. The new moon (18th) sets a new cycle in motion and over the course of the next six to eight weeks events will clearly show you where your talents and affections do not lie. You deserve better.

The Year Ahead for Virgo
2026 is a year of golden opportunities – make the most of events on or near 18 July and 4 November – and while you can learn from the past, you don’t want to live there. Under 2026’s powerful alignments, your happiness lies in going after what (or who) you believe in, even if it means throwing up a piece of your past and entering foreign territory. From July, Jupiter will be moving through the twelfth house in preparation for its transit of Virgo from summer 2027. In tandem, you will be in a period of preparation. Not only are health and fitness important issues to get behind, but the endeavours you begin in the second half of 2026 will take a year to mature.
