Horoscope for Saturday, January 03, 2026
Moon alert
There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today. The full moon in Cancer peaks at 4:03 a.m. Chicago time. The moon is in Cancer.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Today your challenge is whether to meet the demands of home and family or the demands of your reputation and career. This particular full moon suggests that you cannot ignore your public reputation. Tough one.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Pay attention to everything you say and do today because this is an accident-prone day due to the full moon energy. An accident doesn't have to happen, but if you're emotionally hyped or upset, this could distract you and create an accident. Capisce?
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Certain financial matters might come to a head today. This means you will clearly see what is doable in terms of how much money you have and what is not doable. This is good to know. Now you can plan your next move.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Today the first full moon in your sign this year is taking place. (The next full moon in Cancer will occur on Dec. 23.) Naturally, this will create tension between you and those who are closest to you. However, it will give you the courage to get out of a situation you don't like.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Things are challenging today — especially with work, with your health or dealing with a pet — because of the full moon energy. However, it is possible to set things in motion this evening that will have a long-term benefit for you. Think about this.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Your dealings with kids and romantic partners are challenged today because of the full moon energy. Be encouraged by the fact that this is brief. (It's strong for 24 hours and certainly gone after 48 hours.) Choose a fun, relaxing activity as a distraction.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Today's full moon might create problems with parents and bosses or create tension with home and family. Whatever is happening with family will require your attention. Be the peacemaker. What you do now will benefit your home for a long time in the future.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Pay attention to everything you say and do today because this is a mildly accident-prone day for you. The reason an accident might occur is that you are distracted due to an emotional response to something. (An accident doesn't have to happen just because it's the full moon.)
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Avoid quarrels about money or possessions today. What's the point? Today is the full moon, and it's active in both your money houses. Stay positive. Be generous, because your generosity will be returned to you manifold in the future. (Trust me.)
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Today the full moon is taking place opposite your sign, which might trigger tension between you and spouses, partners and close friends. More than others, you can handle challenges that require self-discipline. Demonstrate grace under pressure.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Today has its challenges, but they're not insurmountable. You might feel a bit out of sorts or worried and not know why — or worse yet, worried and you DO know why. Later in the day, you'll feel better. You might have ideas about how to make improvements with home and family.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Social outings might drift off course because of today's full moon energy. Of course, this doesn't have to happen. Remind yourself to be patient when dealing with your kids. Likewise, romantic partners must be patient when dealing with each other. By evening, life takes on a warm glow. "More chocolate?"
If today is your birthday
J.R.R. Tolkien (1892–1973) shares your birthday. You are charming, idealistic and committed to the pursuit of your ideals. You have an amazing imagination. This is a year of exciting changes that will bring you increased personal freedom. Let go of anything that is holding you back. Seek out new opportunities. Travel is likely.
