Mars fuels raw ambition as it grinds through your sign until January 23. You want transformation, not tweaks, so launch the project, pitch the idea and take a risk that keeps whispering to you. You work best solo, so claim your independence proudly. Just avoid impulsive leaps that drain your stamina. Move with purpose. Every step from this week reshapes your future in ways you'll feel by January 23 – and way beyond if enough passion underpins your actions.

This month brings a system reboot: the Full Moon on the 4th exposes habits that make you less productive or healthy than you know you can be. Mars in your sign ignites big goals until January 23. The New Moon on the 19th whispers that it's smart to cut your losses and walk away from whatever or whoever drains you. Beauty queen Venus then enters your sign until January 17, making you a magnet for admirers who match the high (or higher) standards you are right to set.
