Your Weekly Horoscope Says a New Moon in Capricorn Will Restart Your Engine

Your horoscope for the week of January 7 to 13 says new opportunities and a fresh perspective are on the way. If you’ve been struggling to get into the spirit of the New Year, this week’s astrology will be a motivating force.

However, it may not feel that way at first. With Mercury in Sagittarius—the zodiac sign of its detriment—squaring off with dizzying and disorienting Neptune on January 8, you could be prone to distorted thinking, especially if the facts have yet to be settled. Instead of considering the worst possible scenarios, give yourself time before forming any harsh judgments. The same goes for believing everything a person says, as their actions will always speak louder than their words.

It will be easier to tap into something exciting and new by January 9. This is when the hardworking Capricorn sun will form a trine with innovative Uranus in Taurus, allowing you to cultivate your efforts in a way that feels inspiring to you. Don’t be afraid to try something different! As motivated Mars in Capricorn forms a sextile with Saturn in empathetic Pisces, you also have the power to do good this week, especially in a way that provides yourself—or someone else—stability and support.

The energy gets even more exciting by January 11. The new moon in Capricorn rises bright and early at 6:57 a.m. ET, turning the page over to a new start. If you still haven’t gotten the hang of your New Year’s resolutions, this new moon will be a powerful time to start creating, manifesting, and setting longterm goals. And once Mars in Capricorn forms a trine with extravagant Jupiter in Taurus on January 13, your efforts may pave the way for plenty of rewards, especially when it comes to gifts, bonuses, and finances.
