Snake Monthly Horoscope: January 2026This is the final month of your own year, the Ben Ming Nian, and it is a time of profound transformation. The Full Moon on January 3rd may feel intensely personal, bringing a culmination to the identity shifts you have experienced over the last twelve months. You may feel a mix of exhaustion and triumph. Use the waning period starting January 10th to shed the final layer of your skin. Let go of grudges, outdated self-perceptions, or habits that no longer serve the person you have become.
The New Moon on January 18th is perhaps the most important day of the month for you. It represents the true reset before you hand the baton to the Horse. Use this time for deep rest and financial planning. The Wood element has fueled your growth; now, you must stabilize your roots. Set intentions for security and wisdom. Silence is your ally during this phase-keep your strategies hidden and your mind clear.
By the First Quarter Moon on January 26th, you will feel a lightness returning. The heavy responsibility of carrying the year's energy begins to lift. Use the waxing moon in late January to engage in social activities that are purely for pleasure, not business. Reconnect with joy and lightness, preparing to enjoy the fruits of your labor as the year transitions.
