Influence and characteristics of the Moon on January 2, 2026

At midday, the Moon is in the Gemini ♊ (±).

Gemini is the patron saint of active fidgety people who are constantly exploring new horizons. If you are one of them, you can play your wedding on this day.

The middle of the day falls on the 14 lunar day (+).

This is a good time for second and subsequent marriages for people whose first marriage did not work out. Given your previous experience, take a closer look at each other and carefully consider the pros and cons of your decision.

Current phase – Waxing Gibbous (+).

This is a favourable time for marriages based on love rather than self-interest and calculation. If you have confidence in your partner, if your feelings have been tested by time and trials, then go ahead and marry.

Influence of the day of the week – Friday (+).

Friday is under the patronage of Venus and is therefore the best time to enter into a marriage. The family will be strong and happy for many decades.
