Venus, planet of art and relationships, is in Shravana from January 20th to 31st 2026, the nakshatra within the zodiacal sign of Capricorn.

The Shakti, or unique gift, of this asterism for ‘Making Connection’, sees you bonding with a partner over a shared love of the arts, either in a personal affair or creative collaboration. You can find a romance for the long term, or simply start a new and enduring chapter in your current relationship. Shravana is associated with high learning and spiritual knowledge through its rulership by Vishnu, the Preserver, and Shravana itself is known for its power to give fame.

This asterism’s symbol of the Ear also favours all kinds of oral traditions, where you use your expressive skills and powers of memory, at the same time as tuning out gossip and romantic rumours. You are charming and eloquent, and have the ability to speak sweetly to anyone you wish to impress – finding the right words is a great gift. You can also get closer to somebody by being a good listener. Draw on your teaching, writing and presenting skills, plus your esoteric knowledge, to step up a level, especially in respect to focused mantra-chanting.

Venus is closely by dynamic Mars through this whole transit, which gives your relationship a passionate and impulsive quality. You may be drawn into an unexpected liaison or take a chance with someone you wouldn’t usually consider. Be careful of jealousy arising in a social situation: a romantic conquest may be on your mind, or sudden attention from a stranger needs you to respond in the moment.
