Love Horoscopes Are Here For Saturday, January 3 — Your Soft Romantic Era Begins
Design: YourTango, photo: Dean Drobot, Canva The Full Moon in Cancer will rise on January 3, 2026, in each zodiac sign's love horoscope, opposite the Sun in Capricorn. While this polarity calls for honoring the balance between your outer and personal lives, this year is intense. While the Moon opposes the Sun in Capricorn, Venus, Mars, Mercury, and Juno are in Capricorn, known for its strong work ethic and desire for success. However, with Venus, Mars, and Juno, there is a strong sense of romantic commitment and attachment arising with this lunation. You can take a chance on a new relationship, but about truly choosing to commit to one another.
Cancer is the ruling zodiac sign of the Moon, so this is a lunation that will pull on your heartstrings and guide you to reflect on what is most important to you. The Full Moon in Cancer will encourage you to focus on your romantic, personal, and home life. While the Sun, Venus, Mars, and Juno in Capricorn will help to increase your commitment and dedication. With Cancer governing themes of home and family, this energy will spill over into your relationship. While you will be craving a relationship that feels like home, do be mindful of not making your home within another, which is what the balance of Capricorn can help to provide. Consider ways you can deepen or improve your relationship, dating life or home environment. Reveal your emotions most authentically, and choose someone who not only feels like home but also calms your nervous system.

Hold space for this moment, Cancer. While the Full Moon rises in your zodiac sign of Cancer, it opposes the Sun in Capricorn. Capricorn governs your house of love, relationships, and the kind of life that you create.
You want to reflect on your own process and how you’ve been approaching your relationship. Saturday's Full Moon is a chance to make changes, release what isn’t working and to appreciate that you no longer are the person you once were.
This is the beginning of truly having that reciprocal love you’ve always deserved.

The Cancer Moon will heighten your intuition and the messages that you receive from the divine. You’re not picking up on logic right now, but on energy and as you know, energy never lies.
Try to listen to your intuition and be a part of the process, even if you don’t have the answers just yet.

Be sure to honor yourself, Libra. While you’ve been busy focusing on your home and personal relationships, you may have been putting your own needs on the back burner.
The energy of the Full Moon in Cancer is all about you continuing to understand that your needs matter. Take some time and reflect on your goals, including those for your career or personal growth.

It’s time to fulfill your dreams, Scorpio. The Full Moon in Cancer will rise in your house of luck, abundance and travel, bringing an exciting dream to fulfillment.
Yet, with the collection of planets currently in Capricorn, you must be sure that you’re seeing everything for what it is and communicating in the ways that you need to.
Be sure that you’re not trying to bypass the process to get to the reward. What you avoid is what will help you get to the other side of this situation. Be sure you’re embracing opportunities for conversation and changing your mind so you can take advantage of the luck coming your way.
Sagittarius

You will always be a work in progress, Sagittarius. Although you’ve started the year strong with significant developments in your financial life, you may have an important realization with the Full Moon in Cancer.
Money or financial stability doesn’t replace love, nor does it magically make everything better. Instead, you must pay attention to the emotional connections you have in your life.
Capricorn

Go after the love you want, Capricorn. You’ve been riding an energetic high as Sun, Mars, Venus, Mercury, and Juno are all within your zodiac sign of Capricorn. You improve your confidence, speak your truth, and commit to what you want.
As the Full Moon in Cancer rises, this is your chance to make a move in your romantic life. Whether it’s recommitting to a current partner or approaching that person you’ve fallen for, this is all about you finally taking a step towards what you know you want.
Aquarius

Feel your way into it, Aquarius. As much as there is a benefit of logic, it won’t necessarily help you when it comes to making choices from your soul.
The Full Moon in Cancer will rise in your house of well-being and change, while the stellium in Capricorn activates your house of intuition. Try not to look for proof or evidence of how you feel; instead, let your emotions lead you.
Don't over-question or think that you’re unjustified in making a particular decision. Focus on your feelings and let yourself feel the way forward.
Pisces

While the Capricorn energy brings new people and distractions into your life on Saturday, the Cancer Moon helps you to focus on what resonates most deeply with your heart. Use this energy to choose love and allow yourself to become that hopeful romantic once again.
