TAURUS (Apr. 21-May 20)

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

The new year has barely begun, and your mind is already drifting toward something beautiful. This week lifts you out of your comfort zone in the best way—stirring curiosity and sparking that steady intellect. New horizons, new ideas, or a blend of both could pull you forward. And if an unexpected opportunity lands on your desk, trust the timing because it’s working in your favour.

In with the new and out with the old, though you usually prefer to be the one in charge of the cleanup. This week, however, asks you to trust the cosmos as it clears space for invigorating opportunities. Your career is shifting, your finances are in motion, and the universe is orchestrating more change than you might expect. Think of it as turnover with purpose.

Nothing welcomes the new year with more cosmic flair than a Full Moon in your sign, dear Cancer. If you haven’t felt the universe nudging you toward that long-held dream, you’re clearly ignoring the signs. This week places you squarely in the spotlight, and there’s no slipping back into the shadows. You’re being called to claim what’s already in motion—and you’re finally ready to step into it.

LEO (July 23-August 22)

VIRGO (August 23-Sept.22)

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct.22)

Can we go back to sleep? Seriously, Leo, we understand. The new year arrived with more fatigue than fire, and there’s no shame in wanting to crawl right back under the covers.

Whether you’ve been navigating family theatrics or sprinting to the finish line on a work project, you’re returning from the holiday break in need of… another break.

Take it slow and let the rhythm soften.

Virgo, for all your precision, you do love a good night out—and what’s better than by gathering with your favourite people? Between reminiscing and meeting new faces, you’re reminded just how supported you are. That warmth gives you the confidence to inch closer to a dream project that’s been quietly taking shape. Your circle believes in you, and you’re starting to believe it too.

Are you ready for a new year?

Because 2026 is already staring you down, Libra. The universe is sketching out bold plans for your career, and this first work week sets the tone. If you’ve been in the wrong professional lane, you may feel a gentle cosmic nudge toward something better. Trust the redirection.

SCORPIO (Oct.23-Nov21)

SAGITTARIUS (Nov.22-Dec.21)

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.19)

Fresh ideas are calling, and you’re especially drawn to projects that let you travel, explore, and immerse yourself in new cultures. Whether you’re taking on an overseas client or plotting your next passport stamp, your world is widening and you’re moving through it with purpose. Let this week be the moment you set those plans into motion.

If money has been weighing on your mind, this is your moment to sketch out a real plan. This week could bring an unexpected bump in income, and if we were certified financial planners, we’d gently advise you to be wise with it. But you’re Sagittarius… and a celebratory new handbag has never broken the cosmos’ balance. Spend with intention and enjoy the glow-up.

The New Year hits differently for you.

With another trip around the sun behind you, or just ahead, you’re feeling reflective about the relationships that shape your world. If something has run its course, this week urges you to speak your truth and see where the wind carries it. What’s clear is your sense of self: you know your worth, and you’re no longer willing to settle for anything less.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.18)

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

ARIES (March 21-April 20)

A period of contemplation is beginning from now until 23rd January. You will benefit mostly from getting away from it all and having time to yourself as your energy level will lower. You very likely need to establish what needs to take priority and those things you have to let go of based on what is most sensible on a financial level.

Love is in the air, sweet Pisces, and it’s unmistakably calling your name. The new year has settled over you with a glow you can’t quite shake, even as reality pulls you back to your desk. If your relationship feels stronger than ever, trust that you’re working with soulmate energy. If things feel unsteady, the cosmos may be hinting that it’s time to release what no longer fits. .

Nothing rings in a new year quite like that first Monday, and trust an Aries to meet it head-on. True to form, you may have kicked things off with a change of scenery: a new bed, a new space, or at least the same partner beside you (small victories count). Fresh year, fresh dynamics, and you’re setting the tone without even trying.

Reiki is a pseudoscientific form of energy healing, a type of alternative medicine created

by Mikao Usui in Japan during the 1920s.[1][2] Reiki practitioners use a technique called palm healing or hands-on healing through which, according to practitioners, a "universal energy" is transferred through the palms of the practitioner to the client, to encourage emotional or physical healing. It is based on qi ("chi"), which practitioners say is a universal life force, although there is no empirical evidence that such a life force exists.
