Week starting 5th January
Rat
The weekend's Full Moon has not only brought you to the halfway point of the month of the Rat and of the halfway point in what is the foundation month for a new personal 12 month lunar cycle, but with the hardest part now over. It was during the lead up to the weekend's Full Moon that a Horse Moon would have thrown up any roadblocks and barriers, whether real or imagined and if there were going to be any challenges, it would have been in the first few days of the year. The Rat and Horse are opposites and because your energies aren't a natural fit, this will have exposed anything that is out of balance, while making sure that you aren't moving into the future with your head in the sand.
Ox
As you move into the first full week of 2026, there is not only likely to be a mix of nostalgia and anticipation, but over the coming days both are likely to become stronger. On the one hand, as you move into the final 14 days of not just the nostalgic and reflective month of the Rat but of your current personal 12 month lunar cycle, a sense of nostalgia is going to intensify, with nostalgic trips down memory lane becoming increasingly common experiences, as you go through the process of closing old doors. Yet by Monday, the Month of the Ox and the start of a new personal 12 month lunar cycle is just 14 days away and drawing closer by the day. By this point, your over the horizon radar will already be alert to new doors opening ahead.
Tiger
As you move into the final two weeks of the social and serendipitous month of the Rat, after the weekend's New Moon, the Moon has also moved into its waning phase. It was in the early days of the New Year that the Moon was at its peak, with maximum drain on your social batteries. While the Rat will still be working to keep you connected, with people to see and places to go, as the Moon wanes so too will the need or the desire to be constantly connected. You might find that you are starting to crave personal space.
The exception is likely to be during a Monkey Moon on Monday and Tuesday, with the Monkey and Rat working together to make these good days for all aspects of friendship and relationship building.
Rabbit
While as you move into the first full week of 2026 the competitive and professionally charged month of the Rat only has another 14 days to run, having moved into the New Year under its influence could have long reaching implications. For the Rabbit, you won't just feel the Rat's influence professionally, but in anything that you are able to channel your competitive spirit into, making this the ideal time to set resolutions, goals and aspirations for the coming year. Meanwhile, helping to get the new working week off to an empowered start for anything that keeps you busy or occupies your time, will be the busy, industrious and work focused Monkey Moon on Monday and Tuesday. As the Monkey and Rat are the best of friends, they will be helping each other out.
Dragon
As you move into the first full week of 2026, you are also moving into the final two weeks of the adventurous and spontaneous month of the Rat. With the more competitive and professionally charged month of the Ox just 14 days away, helping to hold onto the Rat's influence is a playful and creative Monkey Moon on Monday and Tuesday. Between them, the Rat and the Monkey are not only putting the focus on the playful, creative and adventurous side of life's fence, but as part of the same triad of affinity they are natural allies. The third partner in that triad is the Dragon, with the Moon getting off to an especially positive start for you.
Snake
At the same time that you are moving into the first full week of 2026, you are also moving into the final two weeks of the month of the Rat and its focus on change and transformation. A Monkey Moon on Monday and Tuesday will bring the Monkey and Rat, part of the same triad of affinity together, giving you the confidence and the chance to draw a new line in the sand. For the Snake, the month of the Rat is all about change and transformation and following on from the challenging month of the Pig and its wakeup calls, this is when you can turn this into the opportunity for a reset that it always was. As the month of the Pig ended just before Christmas, you can put it in the box labelled '2025' and put it behind you.
Horse
While for the Horse, the month of the Rat at the time can appear to be a challenging month, in reality and with hindsight you will come to appreciate how personally empowering this can be and how, moving into the first full week of 2026, this gives you a chance to push the reset button. The Rat and Horse are opposites and because your energies aren't a natural fit, this will expose anything that is out of balance, just as you have reached the halfway point in your current personal 12 month lunar cycle. As you can't change what you can't see, this is a chance for a reset as you move into the second half of this 12 month cycle.
Goat
While the Rat will be working to pack as much into the next two weeks as possible, on the other side of the weekend's Full Moon, the Moon is now in its waning phase, so it is coming off its peak and with it the urgency. As you move into the final 14 days of the busy, industrious and work focused month of the Rat on Monday, the Moon will be just starting to wane and from this point on, while at the start of the week appearing to be big, fat and bright, each day will see it start to shrink, until there is nothing left and it will be reborn in two weeks as a New Moon. Each day that passes, this will see the urgency drop back, making it easier to pace yourself and to work smarter.
Monkey
At the same time that on Monday you will move into the final 14 days of the playful and creative month of the Rat, you will also be just 14 days away from the busy, industrious and work focused month of the Ox, which will be drawing closer by the day. For the Monkey, the month of the Ox won't just bring you to the start of some of the busiest weeks of any year, but the Ox is a sober, responsible and patient creature, with the discipline and focus to haul a plough up and down the same field from sunup to sundown, whereas the Rat would rather play than work. It is while you are under the Rat's influence that you can put some guardrails in place to ensure that, ahead of the month of the Ox, life doesn't become all work and no play.
Rooster
The weekend's Full Moon has brought you to the halfway point of the month of the Rat, which on Monday has just 14 days more to run. Thanks to starting the week under the influence of a nostalgic and reflective but also intuitive and imaginative Monkey Moon, you will find it easier to relax into the Rat's focus on home, family and on those rituals and routines that can help you feel grounded and can bring a sense of belonging. This is something that over the New Year and into the weekend may have faced some headwind, making it important to relish any chance to get back to basics, back to your normal routine and even for an early night.
Dog
If there is any month that you want to squeeze the most out of every moment, it is the month of the Rat, which on Monday moves into its final 14 days. The reason why the month of the Rat is such an important and unique moment is how widespread its influence can be. For the Dog, the Rat is the Swiss army knife of any lunar cycle, with a tool for every occasion, making you mentally sharper, better able to think on your feet and can enhance all aspects of communication. This will be especially so during a social and serendipitous Monkey Moon on Monday and Tuesday.
Partly because this will put the focus on connecting and partly because, as the Rat and Monkey are the best of friends, this will make these especially good days for connecting.
Pig
At the halfway point of the lucrative month of the Rat, you will be starting to get a feel for its influence and especially when it comes to your confidence and setting bottom lines. While for the Pig this can be a lucrative month and helping to get the first full week of 2026 off to a potentially lucrative start will be a competitive and professionally charged Monkey Moon on Monday and Tuesday, it is not just about the money. Knowing that you can't attract what you don't believe you deserve, the Rat works by building your confidence and a belief in yourself, which in turn helps you attract more across all the currencies in your life.
