Cosmic Insights – January 19, 2026 January 19, 2026

by Veronica G. Hartman 

The celestial week of January 19, 2026, begins with the Sun rising in patient, executive Capricorn, illuminating an opportunity to demonstrate mastery and control of confidential information as Saturn, the ruler of Capricorn, is finishing up a two-year visit in elusive Pisces, building a firm foundation of faith about its spiritual vision. Jupiter, the daily promoter of Pisces, is supporting the vision with an emotional commitment as it is retrograde in Cancer.

Meanwhile, the Moon has taken up residence in intuitive Aquarius, with a unique perspective on the power of knowing who you are and living up to it with detached emotions and unconditional love for the courage to be different.

This week begins on the heels of a Capricorn new moon cycle, so intentions that have been created may very well change later in the evening, when the Sun joins Venus, Pluto, and the Moon in Aquarius, to realign those intentions formed in Capricorn from a traditional perspective to a futuristic one through the intuitive insights.

The caveat is that Saturn is the daily ruler of Aquarius, so it is unwise to throw the baby out with the bathwater, or ride the waves of the unknown without a realistic vision for the future that is practical and test-worthy. The key is to incorporate the methods that have demonstrated success with the intuitive brilliance that the Sun in Aquarius brings to outcomes.

Before the day ends, Venus and Pluto unite in Aquarius, offering an opportunity to transform humanitarian values with the awareness of the inherent divine power within, to heal the illusions of separation and embrace the universal concept that we are all one.

On the mid-morning of January 20,  Mercury follows the Sun in Aquarius with revolutionary ideas to gain an edge in the boardroom that no one sees coming.

Shortly after midnight on January 21, the moon drifts into soothing Pisces for some emotional downtime from the intellectual frenzy of Mercury, Venus, Pluto, and the Sun brainstorming in Aquarius.

Later in the mid-morning, Mercury and the Sun unite in eclectic Aquarius for a new cycle of innovative ideas, communication, and knowledge to collectively unite humanity with a common vision of hopes, wishes, and dreams.

Before lunch on January 22, Mercury joins Pluto in Aquarius to combine the power of transforming innovative ideas with the inherent intuitive technology of the mind, instead of artificial intelligence. As in, think MacGyver.

In the early hours of January 23, Mars moves into Aquarius, motivated by a desire to assert individual choices with abrupt actions that may seem to be rebellious but are really a call to freedom. 

Shortly after, the Sun and Pluto unite with a powerful purpose, aligning values with the ideas of Mercury in Aquarius and the financial resources of savvy Venus in Aquarius, to accomplish a vision of equality for the highest good of all.

Then the Moon moves into Aries before the workday begins, with an emotional desire to kickstart actions into high gear regarding emotional and financial goals. The Moon in Aries aligns favorably with Mars, Pluto, Mercury, Venus, and the Sun in Aquarius; so now is a great time for emotional adrenaline to be the catalyst that fuels the fires of unpredictable changes for the future.

This is an unusual lineup of six planets in Aquarius, so unpredictable changes are definitely on the horizon. The key is to embrace new beginnings with unique perceptions, emotional flexibility, faith in oneself that moves mountains, and a backup plan for your backup plans!  Uranus is the evolutionary ruler of Aquarius and is currently retrograde in Taurus, so it is lying low until it moves forward in February.

Thus, Saturn in Pisces is currently guiding the planets in Aquarius with compassion and kindness, until it moves into Aries at the end of January! Then, all bets are off, as active fire activates airy detachment!
