NEW MOON IN CAPRICORN 2026

On January 18, 2026, we will have a very active New Moon at 28° 43’ in the sign of Capricorn. It is considered a very active because it is surrounded by Conjunctions. 

It has the transits of Mercury and Mars at 26° Capricorn and Venus and Pluto at 1° and 3° Aquarius, respectively making aspects to the New Moon.  These planets are within the suggested range of 3° and Pluto is at about 4°.  At the same time, we have transiting Uranus making a Trine at 27° Taurus and the transits of Saturn/Neptune at 28°.  These latter two are making a Sextile to the position of the New Moon.  These are powerful indicators of a heightened energy which can last for up to one year.

New Moon in Capricorn 2026

Although the effects of the current New Moon will not be fully harvestable until the Full Moon occurs in Capricorn some six months from now, this is the best time to set your intensions and begin new projects.  The results will bring fruition again in about six months, but much will depend on how much effort you exerted working towards achieving these goals. This is especially highlighted with the influence of the sign of Capricorn.

Your intensions should relate to the energies of Capricorn as this is the sign of the New Moon.  As a result, you can set intensions influencing career objectives. This could include beginning your own business, or pushing towards a promotion and gaining recognition for your work ethics and diligent efforts.  It would be beneficial to get closer to those in positions of power, particularly authority figures and your superiors from whom you have either earned respect or who have earned your respect.  You can learn a great deal from these individuals, but you will have to be persistent, diligent and patient as things will likely take their time moving forward.

Mars and Mercury, being Conjunct to the New Moon’s position, suggest that you will have a good idea on how to maneuver your way forward.  Mars will push you, and you must make sure that you do not rush things, even though you may want to.  The Trine from Transiting Uranus can bring you the unexpected, and it may work in an unforeseen manner, often taking hold when you least expect it.  Saturn and Neptune, being Conjunct one another, will insist that you take a realistic view of your goals, but at the same time, your imagination may provide insight into the best way to promote your ideas.

Uranus, Saturn and Neptune are all positive elements and the energies they provide offer greater opportunity for success as time passes. 

The House position of the New Moon will play an important role in the energies.  The house signals the area of life best suited to promote your objectives.  The houses connected to Transiting Uranus and Saturn/Neptune will play a powerful role as well.

The strongest period for those that have planets or angles within 3° of this New Moon position (Capricorn 25° to Aquarius 1°) will be three days prior to the direct contact of the New Moon, which will be January 15 and up to and including three days after (January 21) although the influence is felt for about two weeks and longer for those that are sensitive to outside energies. Look for results in approximately 6 months, and don’t forget that the energy you put into your intensions will be reflected in the harvest you reap. 

You can make a list of what you wish to accomplish as intensions often work better when we also have them in the written form. It makes them more real.

With the New Moon in Capricorn 2026 be diligent in your efforts and learn the art of patience. The likelihood of achievement is much higher because of all the other planetary influences.

SATURN SEXTILE NATAL MIDHEAVEN

As transiting Saturn moves through the Zodiac, it challenges us, it teaches us valuable life lessons and then tests us.  Things may not move along as you might want them to, taking longer to reach goals or to get action.

Transiting Saturn Sextile Natal Midheaven

With transiting Saturn sextile natal MC (Midheaven or Medium Coeli), the energies and lessons are often directly related to your career, your life’s status, your goals and aspirations.

Although the Sextile (a 60° aspect) is considered a favorable aspect, it still requires work because of Saturn’s connection, and it requires dedication and continued effort from you.  You must be reliable, steady, structured in your approach, although the working environment or your career might be subject to some challenging conditions.  This may affect your status in life as some individuals will find this energy difficult; and because of this, it can put strain on any partnerships that have been formed, especially with the spouse.

There may be setbacks with goals until Saturn is outside its influence on your MC, (which is approximately 4° separating).  Saturn is often at its peak when it has passed the natal position which in this case will be your MC by 2°.  No other planet has this delayed effect, and other planets will be at their peak when direct.

With Saturn sextile natal Midheaven, there is a potential opportunity although it will take more work than might be expected. Keep an open mind, with a positive attitude, and over time things can work out favorably. You must make this happen, however, as it will not happen by itself.  Persistence, patience, learning lessons of significance and perseverance are necessary to make this work in your favor. 

Do not give up even though things seem not to be working the way you want them to work. Over time, the results will prove to be beneficial to you in some manner.  A positive perspective is a requirement.

SATURN SEXTILE NATAL NORTH NODE

When deciphering the information in this article, the placement of the North Node and South Node in your astrology chart will be extremely important.  The North Node has to do with what we have come into this incarnation to learn from, achieve, and build on, and the South Node speaks of what we should let go of and what is comfortable for us (this is determined by the sign and house position). 

Transiting Saturn Sextile Natal North Node

When Transiting Saturn makes a Sextile to your Natal North Node, it also makes a Trine to your Natal South Node.  This can be a time of great opportunities when it comes to your path forward.  You may find that your eyes are finally open to what the next step might be as you move forward through life lessons seen as adverse or a slow progress forward (again related to the energies associated with the North Node’s positioning). 

An example might be for someone who has a North Node in Aries (and therefore a South Node of Libra). This would encompass the need to step forward with your own ambitions.  It must be personal although others might be affected as well. The time has come to recognize your personal ambitions and to press forward to fulfill them. With the North Node in Aries in our example, you cannot rely on others to do the work for you (which would likely have been the case in a previous lifetime, or you might have been so tied up in helping others prior to this lifetime that it seems almost out of character to move towards something that suits your personal needs).

With the South Node in Libra, continuing with this configuration example (NN in Aries, SN in Libra), in the past, you were always in the shadows of what was taking place.  Now, your objectives must be met and with the example South Node, you may be able to use your compassionate and diplomatic nature to assist in maintaining this process that is required.  You have ideas on how to maneuver your way forward but a part of you wants to do this for others, when in fact you need to do this for yourself first. Others will likely benefit over time, but you must advance for your own benefit first and foremost.

Saturn may make this progress a little more difficult because it insists that we work diligently for our rewards.  You will have to put in the work required to achieve your objectives and do not let any negativity delay the process. 

Saturn sextile Natal North Node is energy designated for you! The harder you work towards your goals, the greater the chance of success.  The effort and the prolonged period will be worth it. Keep pushing forward even when there seems to be obstacles in the way. 

Perseverance will pay off over the long haul and if Saturn should go into retrograde during the time span, you will have several opportunities before you finalize what it is you may be pushing towards.
