NYPost Daily Horoscope for Friday, January 23, 2026
***** Today's Birthday Horoscope *****
Confrontations of one sort or another are inevitable this year but you must never back down. Your opponents will be as eager as you to win the fight, so you can and you must show them no quarter. You win or you lose, there is no middle ground.
**** Aquarius ****
January 20 - February 18
There has rarely been such an array of cosmic activity in your sign and if
life is a bit quiet at the moment you can be sure it won't be for long. Major changes are on the way, the sort you can profit from if you stay calm.
**** Pisces ****
February 19 - March 20
This could be one of those days when you find it hard to get started but that need not be a bad thing. In fact, if you let others call the shots over the next 24 hours their decisions could benefit you in ways you had not anticipated.
**** Aries ****
March 21 - April 19
You are so full of yourself at the moment that you risk saying and doing
things that even your best friends think go beyond the bounds of what is acceptable. Yes, it's great to be alive, but remember you're not the only go- getter on the block.
**** Taurus ****
April 20 - May 20
If you go along with what friends and family members want you to do today you will quickly discover that it's a lot of fun. Put your initial doubts to one side and let them lead you into areas that may be outside your comfort zone.
**** Gemini ****
May 21 - June 20
A Sun-Pluto link in the most adventurous area of your chart is enhanced by the entry of Mars into the very same area, so throw off any doubts you may have
and do what makes you feel good. Make today a real celebration of life.
**** Cancer ****
June 21 - July 22
It's good that you are excited by current opportunities but you need to be aware that nothing in life comes for free. A new creative project will be a
lot of fun but it could also require a large input of cash - so start saving!
**** Leo ****
July 23 - August 22
There are so many changes in your life at the moment but you have what it
takes to make a success of them all. Today's Mercury-Pluto link will encourage you to believe you are correct in your assessment of what's going on -- and you are.
**** Virgo ****
August 23 - September 22
Mercury, your ruler, links with Pluto in the work area of your chart today, which among other things means you will be able to find clever ways to clear the backlog of jobs that has built up in recent weeks. Think fast, then act even faster.
**** Libra ****
September 23 - October 22
You may be a social animal by nature but there is a danger you could go too
far over the next few days and exhaust both your energy and your finances,
Some of those invitations you are getting are worthwhile, but many are not.
**** Scorpio ****
October 23 - November 21
If you expect things to stay as they are today you will be disappointed, so accept that the world around you is changing and find ways to change with it that benefit both yourself and the people you love. Always move with the
times.
**** Sagittarius ****
November 22 - December 21
You may be full of yourself at the moment but you are not the only one who is jockeying for position and showing how tough you can be, especially on the
work front. Do whatever it takes to avoid confrontation. Try being friends
with everyone.
**** Capricorn ****
December 22 - January 19
You will be in one of your no-nonsense moods today and the sound of your voice alone will let friends and colleagues know not to mess with you. You have no intention of wasting time and you won't allow others to waste it for you either.
