Star signs and cannabis strains: January 2026 horoscopes

The astrology of January wastes no time getting started and continues cranking up the heat by the end of the month. On Jan. 3, we get a luscious Full Moon in Cancer that sits next to and blends energies with Jupiter, which is also in Cancer (both Luna and Jupiter excel when they’re in Cancer), making emotions swell like the tides of the ocean, bringing our collective needs to a visible breaking point.

The moon and Jupiter will be on opposite sides of the sky from a Capricorn planet pileup comprising of the Sun, Mars, Venus, and Mercury. This creates a lot of serious energy that might have us in tears, feeling like Something’s gotta give. This lunation will have us reflecting on what we need to feel safe and secure in our lives.

A raise, maybe? Universal healthcare? A four-day work week? Student loan debt forgiveness? Paid parental leave? We’re at a collective crossroads right now where we’re looking at the year ahead and thinking: How are we supposed to do it all over again?

But don’t panic, the most supportive astrology of the month arrives just days later. Between Jan. 8 – 10, the pressure eases just enough to make tangible plans and strategies to help us navigate 2026. Venus and Mars conjoin in Capricorn, which will be supported by Uranus in Taurus, creating an energy favoring decisive, practical movement around labor, money, and power that is more about getting things done than how it looks when executing them.

With Saturn and Neptune in Pisces quietly stabilized by Jupiter in Cancer, and the Virgo Moon stitching together a series of helpful aspects, this is one of those rare moments when visions, values, and guiding principles can be made functional, and noticeable progress can be made that actually endures once the noise dies down.

The energy begins to pivot around Jan. 17, when Venus enters Aquarius and immediately conjuncts Pluto, forcing a sharp recalibration of relationships, resources, and collective values, especially where power has been quietly pooling. At the same time, Mercury, Mars, and the Sun in Capricorn form supportive sextiles to Saturn and Neptune in Pisces, with Saturn and Neptune also sextiling Uranus in Taurus, opening a narrow window for real, major life restructuring even as Jupiter in Cancer is opposing the Moon, Mercury, and Mars in Capricorn, inflating reactions and rhetoric while the future is actively renegotiated.

Jan. 18 brings a loud Capricorn New Moon. It’s sassy and frustrating, but marks a moment when decisions can solidify into structure. On Jan. 20, the Sun and Mercury enter Aquarius, pulling the focus toward networks, politics, technology, and the future, while Mars in Capricorn applies an exact sextile to Saturn in Pisces and a trine to Uranus in Taurus, making change tangible and executable rather than theoretical.

Jan. 22 marks Mercury’s conjunction with Pluto; expect breaking news or the unearthing of long-buried information from the bowels of society. Mars joins the alien-circus pile up in Aquarius on Jan. 23, while Neptune enters Aries on Jan. 26, before the month peaks on Jan. 28 with Mars conjunct Pluto, sextile Neptune in Aries, delivering catalytic, conviction-fueled energy where patience is required because compromise will be in short supply.

Your January horoscope

Aries: Chem de la Chem

Chem de la Chem

With January pulling you between private needs and public demands, Chem de la Chem helps you cut through the noise and focus on what actually matters. As career decisions, timelines, and social dynamics grow louder, this sativa-forward strain delivers a clear, classic head high that supports discernment without being overwhelming, helping you separate what’s practical from what’s draining.

January lights up both your private and public lives. The Jan. 3 Cancer Full Moon conjunct Jupiter highlights a push-pull between your home needs and public demands that becomes impossible to ignore. You’ll be faced with having to discern what’s practical, what’s ideal, and what’s been quietly draining you behind the scenes all along. But the favorable astrology between Jan. 8–10 will help. You’ll be inclined to apply practical innovation around money, work, and stability that actually sticks. When Venus and Pluto meet up in Aquarius mid-month, the alliances and power dynamics in your circles will be getting a reset.

The Jan. 18 Capricorn New Moon will make career themes loud. You’ll be facing major decisions, timelines, and potential consequences should you not take these things seriously. But it’s best to consider your career decisions holistically, rather than making them out of desperation, because you want to avoid getting involved with anyone who doesn’t have your best interest at heart.

The last 10 days of the month are focused on your friendships. Expect news, revelations, or a sudden change in the social script. The Mars/Pluto conjunction will hit you like a ton of bricks and feel like you’ve hit a point of return. You’ll feel a sense of conviction, your identity will be illuminated, and you’ll feel the collective momentum. Choose the future you actually want to be part of.

Taurus: London Pound Cake

London Pound Cake

With January asking you to slow down and get honest about what’s actually sustainable, London Pound Cake helps bring you back into your body when the noise gets loud. As conversations, decisions, and outside opinions compete for your attention early in the month, this indica-dominant strain offers a steadying, grounding effect that makes it easier to hear your own signal.

January opens by stretching your mind in two directions at once. The Jan. 3 Full Moon in Cancer conjunct Jupiter might bring you to a realization that your day-to-day life and your long-term vision aren’t fully lining up right now, making conversations, information, and decisions feel louder and more consequential than usual. You may feel pulled between what’s directly in front of you and the future you’ve been orienting toward, with outside opinions and group dynamics making it harder to hear your own signal.

Thankfully, Jan. 8–10 eases the pressure. This is one of the most constructive time frames this month, helping you ground big ideas into something workable and embodied. You’ll feel more confident moving forward in ways that actually reflect who you are now, rather than who you’ve been trying to be for others. Mid-month, as Venus enters Aquarius and meets Pluto, themes around your career and public life will begin to shift. Career dynamics, visibility, and power structures around your work will get some kind of reset, and you may realize that what once felt aspirational no longer fits.

The Jan. 18 Capricorn New Moon turns the volume back up around your direction and long-term plans. Decisions made now shape your future trajectory in tangible ways, so it’s worth slowing down and committing only to paths you can realistically sustain.

The final stretch of January keeps your career and public role in focus, with Jan. 22 bringing news, revelations, or a narrative shift about your career and public standing you didn’t see coming. By the time Mars meets Pluto at the end of the month, a turning point arrives around your career or public role. You’ll feel the weight of consequence and a strong sense of conviction about where you stand and what direction you’re moving in, even if not all the behind-the-scenes factors are fully visible yet. Pay close attention to what’s unfolding quietly or out of public view, because those hidden currents are shaping the outcome more than appearances suggest.

Gemini: Blueberry Muffin

Blueberry Muffin

With January forcing you to sit with heavier conversations around money, trust, and shared responsibility, Blueberry Muffin offers a way to slow the mental churn without shutting you down. As decisions about what you’re willing to carry move from abstract to unavoidable, this indica-dominant hybrid helps soften anxiety and ground your thoughts so you can think clearly instead of spiraling.

January starts by putting money, trust, and shared obligations front and center. The Jan. 3 Full moon in Cancer conjunct Jupiter highlights themes of financial or emotional entanglements that have been building quietly, making it harder to ignore questions about who owes what, who depends on whom, and where power is actually sitting. Conversations around value, security, or vulnerability may feel heavier than usual, especially as work and public expectations add pressure to make something concrete out of a situation with shared stakes.

Jan. 8–10 offers a moment of relief. This is a useful time to sort things out behind the scenes, whether that means reorganizing resources, setting clearer boundaries, or finally addressing something you’ve been avoiding. Progress here may not be visible yet, but it’s real, and it helps you regain a sense of control. Mid-month keeps the focus on deeper commitments and shared responsibilities, before the energy shifts on Jan. 17 as Venus enters Aquarius and meets Pluto, triggering a reset in your beliefs, worldview, or long-term direction. Something you thought you believed in may no longer hold.

The Jan. 18 Capricorn New Moon brings decisions around money, intimacy, or obligations into focus, asking you to be honest about what you’re willing to carry into the future and what you’re not. The final stretch of the month pulls your attention toward bigger ideas, future plans, and the stories you’re telling yourself about where this is all going. Around Jan. 22, information surfaces that reframes your understanding of where you’re headed or what you actually believe in. By the time Mars meets Pluto at the end of the month, conviction replaces uncertainty. Your ideas carry weight now, especially in group settings, so be intentional about what you amplify and where you direct your influence.

Cancer: TK41

TK41

With January putting your emotions, needs, and sense of self front and center, TK41 offers a way to soften intensity without numbing it out. As relationship dynamics grow heavier and questions of trust, safety, and vulnerability come into sharper focus, this hybrid delivers a euphoric yet grounding effect that helps you stay present with what you’re feeling instead of retreating from it.

January puts you front and center right away. The Jan. 3 full moon in Cancer conjunct Jupiter lands as a personal peak moment, making your needs, emotions, and sense of identity impossible to sideline. At the same time, pressure from close relationships intensifies, forcing you to confront where compromise has started to feel like control. You may feel exposed, but also clearer about what you actually need in order to feel safe, supported, and seen.

Jan. 8–10 offers a welcome opening. These are constructive days for repairing relationships, renegotiating expectations, and finding practical solutions that don’t require you to abandon yourself. Conversations can move forward in tangible ways now, especially if you’re willing to be honest about limits.

Something about the balance of power becomes harder to ignore.

The Jan. 18 Capricorn New Moon brings relationship matters to a head. Decisions are made, lines are drawn, and what’s been implied finally gets said out loud. The final 10 days of the month pull you deeper into questions of vulnerability and entanglement, with Jan. 22 likely surfacing information or truths that change how you understand a situation.

Leo: Tangie

Tangie

With January making it impossible to ignore burnout and overextension, Tangie brings a much-needed reset to your energy and outlook. As work demands and obligations come into sharper focus early in the month, this bright, citrus-forward sativa delivers a euphoric lift that helps cut through fatigue without pushing you further past your limits.

January opens by exposing the toll your daily life has been taking behind the scenes. The Jan. 3 Full Moon in Cancer that sits next to Jupiter brings hidden stress, exhaustion, or emotional overload into sharper focus, making it harder to ignore where work, routines, or obligations have officially crossed into burnout territory. You may realize that something about how you’ve been operating simply isn’t sustainable anymore, especially when shared responsibilities or emotional entanglements complicate matters.

Jan. 8–10 offers a rare opportunity to pinpoint and fix what’s not working. This is a practical, grounded window for adjusting your workload, improving systems, or setting boundaries that actually protect your energy. The changes you make now can have visible results, helping you regain a sense of control and maintain credibility. Mid-month keeps work and responsibility themes active, before the energy shifts on Jan. 17 as Venus enters Aquarius and meets Pluto, forcing a serious reset in relationships or agreements. The balance of power in your close partnerships (whether that be best friendships, business, or romantic partners) cannot be glossed over.

The Jan. 18 Capricorn New Moon makes work and responsibility themes loud.

By the end of January, you’ll feel a clear shift in direction around who you’re willing to commit to and under what conditions. You don’t get to keep the old terms, but you do get to choose better ones.

Virgo: Cream

Cream

With January asking you to rebalance how much you give versus how much you keep for yourself, Cream helps bring you back into your body and out of overanalysis. As work, health, and daily routines come up for review, this gentle hybrid offers a focused, steadying high that supports repair without pressure, making it easier to notice what’s actually working and what needs adjustment.

January opens by pulling your attention between what you give to others and what you want for yourself. The Jan. 3 Full Moon in Cancer conjunct Jupiter highlights tension between group obligations, friendships, or community dynamics and your own creative desires or need for joy. You may realize that something you’ve been pouring your energy into no longer leaves enough room for your personal will, especially as relationship expectations complicate the picture.

Jan. 8–10 is your moment to recalibrate. This is one of the most supportive stretches of the month for you, helping you feel back in your body and back in control. You can repair what feels out of alignment, make adjustments, and move forward with plans that actually reflect your priorities. Mid-month brings renewed focus on creativity, pleasure, or passion projects, before the energy shifts on Jan. 17 as Venus enters Aquarius and meets Pluto, forcing a reset around work, routines, your health, and how power moves through your daily life. Do you need a new workout routine? Do you need to eat more greens? Are you burned out? Something about your day-to-day system needs to change.

The Jan. 18 Capricorn New Moon will have you making unavoidable decisions around creativity and commitment. You are asked to be honest about what you are willing to devote time and energy to, and what no longer deserves your effort. The final stretch of the month keeps work and health front and center, with Jan. 22 likely bringing information or a reveal that changes how a situation functions day to day. By the end of January, small daily choices start carrying more weight. What you treat as routine now quietly shapes your future.

Libra: Fruit Punch

Fruit Punch

With January asking you to balance public visibility with private emotional upkeep, Fruit Punch helps lift your mood without pulling you away from what actually needs attention. As career pressures and home responsibilities compete for your energy early in the month, this bright, social sativa brings a lightness that supports creative expression and honest connection rather than avoidance.

January opens by forcing you to juggle public responsibility and private reality at the same time. The Jan. 3 Full Moon in Cancer conjunct Jupiter brings attention to your career, reputation, or long-term direction, while also surfacing unmet needs at home, within your family, or within your emotional foundations. You may feel exposed or judged or even simply on display for the outside world to see, just as something personal requires your care, making it clear that you can’t move forward publicly without tending to what’s holding you up behind the scenes.

Thankfully, Jan. 8–10 offers a stabilizing window to regroup. This is a productive stretch for making practical adjustments around home, work, or shared responsibilities that ease the pressure of balancing public obligations with private needs. Small, thoughtful changes made now can improve how your daily life functions and help you feel more grounded in your body and your space. Mid-month keeps home and family themes active, before the energy shifts on Jan. 17 as Venus enters Aquarius and meets Pluto, resetting how you relate to pleasure, creativity, and self-expression. What once felt easy or automatic may now demand more honesty and intention.

The Jan. 18 Capricorn New Moon brings matters at home to a head.

Scorpio: Godfather OG

Godfather OG

With January demanding discernment, accountability, and emotional steadiness, Godfather OG offers Scorpio a way to slow everything down enough to think clearly. As conversations grow heavier and words carry real consequences, this potent indica delivers deep physical relaxation that helps settle nervous tension and quiet mental noise without forcing resolution before you’re ready.

January opens by stretching your perspective. The Jan. 3 Full Moon in Cancer sits next to Jupiter in Cancer, highlighting tension between the bigger picture you’re trying to make sense of and the realities of your day-to-day life. There seems to be a disconnect. Conversations, information, or decisions may suddenly feel heavier, or as if they hold more consequence, especially when the bigger story you’ve been telling yourself no longer matches the facts you’re dealing with day to day.

Jan. 8–10 offers a constructive window for recalibration. These are a useful few days for clearing up misunderstandings, having direct conversations, and adjusting agreements so expectations are explicit and workable. You may find that relationships and creative efforts improve when you focus on logistics, timing, and clear boundaries rather than emotional intensity or trying to convince anyone of a bigger vision. Mid-month keeps communication themes active, before the energy shifts on Jan. 17 as Venus enters Aquarius and meets Pluto, triggering a reset around home, family, or your sense of emotional footing.

The Jan. 18 Capricorn New Moon brings a decisive moment around communication or local matters. Words carry weight now, and what you say sets consequences in motion — what you’re being asked to manage is accountability. Are you willing to stand by what you said, even under scrutiny? The final stretch of the month pulls attention inward, with Jan. 22 likely surfacing information or truths that change how you understand a situation at home. By the end of January, private shifts begin to affect your daily systems. What was once personal starts shaping how you move through the world in a very real, practical way.

Sagittarius: Thai

Thai

With January forcing you to get real about money, stability, and what you can actually sustain, Thai helps you stay clear-headed without getting stuck in anxiety. As financial conversations and questions of self-worth carry more weight early in the month, this classic landrace sativa offers an uplifting, steady mental high that supports perspective without distraction.

January opens by putting your sense of security under a microscope. The Jan. 3 Full Moon in Cancer sits next to Jupiter in Cancer, highlighting financial and emotional entanglements that force you to reckon with what you share, what you owe, and what you actually need to feel stable. Themes and questions around self-worth, money, and dependence may feel heavier than usual, especially as home and/or family dynamics add another layer of pressure.

Much needed pressure relief comes on Jan. 8–10, offering a practical window for rebalancing your footing. This is a good time to reorganize finances, adjust work routines, or make concrete changes at home that improve your sense of stability. Progress now comes from addressing the basics rather than chasing intangible big ideas (right now). Mid-month keeps money and values in focus, before the energy shifts on Jan. 17, when Venus enters Aquarius and meets Pluto, sharpening conversations and shifting who holds influence over decisions, messaging, or information. What’s said, and how it’s said, suddenly matters more.

The final stretch of the month keeps communication front and center, with Jan. 22 bringing information that changes how you understand a conversation, agreement, or ongoing situation in your immediate environment. By the end of January, your words carry real force. How you frame your ideas and advocate for yourself can open creative momentum or close doors just as quickly.

Capricorn: Haze

Haze

As relationship dynamics, career decisions, and questions of commitment demand direct answers, this classic sativa delivers an energizing, creative lift that helps you think strategically and act with intention.

January puts you firmly in the spotlight, whether you asked for it or not. The Jan. 3 Cancer Full Moon conjunct Jupiter puts pressure on one-to-one relationships by pushing you to balance your own direction and boundaries against a partner’s needs, demands, or expectations, making it harder to avoid direct conversations about roles, commitment, or responsibility. You may feel pulled between asserting who you are and accommodating partnerships that suddenly demand more clarity, honesty, or commitment.

Jan. 8–10 is a favorable window where the energy is in your favor. This is one of the most productive windows of the month for you, helping you take decisive action, move ideas forward, and make practical changes that align with your intentions for the future. You’ll feel more capable of executing plans rather than just thinking about them, and creative or personal momentum can build in tangible ways right now. Mid-month keeps attention on you and your direction, before the energy shifts on Jan. 17 as Venus enters Aquarius and meets up with Pluto, triggering a reset around money, values, and what you’re willing to invest in going forward.

The Jan. 18 New Moon in Capricorn is defining for you. This is a moment to state your position plainly, commit to a direction you can realistically sustain, and accept the long-term consequences of the roles, obligations, or identity you’re choosing to step into. The final stretch of the month centers on finances and self-worth, with Jan. 22 likely bringing information or a revelation that changes how you see a resource, agreement, or value exchange. By the end of January, power is in motion. How you direct it now shapes the foundation you’re building next.

Aquarius: GSC

GSC

With January starting quietly and ending at full volume, GSC supports Aquarius through both phases of the shift. Early in the month, as you’re reorganizing routines, shedding unsustainable habits, and making private decisions about who you’re becoming, this indica-dominant hybrid delivers euphoric relief paired with deep physical grounding, helping you decompress without disconnecting.

January starts behind the scenes, but by the end of the month, the changes you’ve been making privately are impossible to miss. The Jan. 3 Full Moon in Cancer is conjunct Jupiter in Cancer, drawing attention to the strain between your daily responsibilities and the emotional or psychological weight you’ve been carrying behind the scenes every day. You may realize that certain work patterns, habits, or expectations are no longer sustainable, especially as money, self-worth, or material concerns make it harder to keep pushing through on autopilot.

By Jan. 8–10, you’ll be able to regain control. This is a productive window for reorganizing your routines, priorities, or commitments in ways that actually hold. Mid-month keeps the focus inward, before the energy pivots on Jan. 17 as Venus enters Aquarius and meets Pluto, triggering a deep reset around identity, belonging, and how you want to show up in the world. Something about your self-concept or public image begins to shift in real time.

The Jan. 18 New Moon in Capricorn marks a turning point. Decisions made privately now shape what comes next for your future, even if no one else sees them yet. By Jan. 20, the spotlight swings fully onto you as Aquarius season stacks your sign with planetary attention, amplifying your voice, visibility, and influence. Around Jan. 22, something comes to light that reshapes how you understand your place in a collective, a project, or the direction you’re moving toward. By the end of the month, momentum accelerates fast. You’ll feel a surge of conviction and a clear sense that there’s no returning to the old version of yourself. This is a moment to act with intention because what you initiate now carries lasting impact.

Pisces: Ice Cream Cake

Ice Cream Cake

With January stirring questions about identity, belonging, and what you’re ready to release, Ice Cream Cake offers Pisces a soft place to land. As creative pressure and collective expectations pull at your sense of self, this indica-dominant hybrid provides deeply calming, full-body relaxation that helps ease anxiety and quiet mental noise.

January opens by pulling you between what you want for yourself and what the collective seems to need from you. The Cancer Full Moon conjunct Jupiter on Jan. 3 amplifies your creative urges, desires, and self-expression, while also highlighting pressure coming from friendships, group dynamics, audiences, or long-term plans with others. With so much attention on your identity this month, January brings competing versions of yourself into focus, making it harder to ignore which identities are dissolving and which ones need nurturing or to be let go altogether.

Thankfully, Jan. 8–10 offers a window of grounding and support. This is a constructive window for clarifying your priorities and putting structure around your ideals, helping you move from vision to action in a way that actually feels sustainable. Mid-month keeps collective obligations in focus, before the energy shifts on Jan. 17 as Venus enters Aquarius and meets Pluto, triggering a profound internal reset. Something outdated begins to fall away, even if it happens entirely out of sight.

The Jan. 18 Capricorn New Moon brings decisions around community, alliances, or the future you’re building into sharper focus. What you commit to now has a direct impact on how you carry yourself and communicate moving forward. The final stretch of the month turns inward, with Jan. 22 likely surfacing information or insights that reframe a situation you thought you understood. By the end of January, there’s a sense that something important is being decided behind the scenes. Trust what you’re picking up on, even if it hasn’t fully taken form yet.
