Exact aspect

Mercury-Jupiter opposition
14 January 2026.

Past.

What it changes

How you think and speak · What you take for granted, and the ground where you let yourself overreach

The two pull against each other, you arbitrate constantly.

Why?
Mercury in Capricorn → · Jupiter in Cancer →

Mercury governs… how you think and speak — the pace, the level of detail, what you keep to yourself. Jupiter governs… what you take for granted, and the ground where you let yourself overreach.

It concerns you if your birthday falls…

  • 8–12 JanuaryMercury sits on your Sun, to the degree.
  • 10–14 JulyJupiter sits on your Sun, to the degree.

Calculated over every birth from 1920 to 2030 (Paris day): depending on the year, the Sun can be a day early or late, hence the range. Your Sun is only one point of your chart: the app also looks at the other nine, to the minute.

The opposition — 180°

Two points face to face: two needs pulling in opposite directions, and life swings between them — often through other people, who embody the far pole. It calls for balance, not a winner.
