ARIES/ARIES RISING 2026 TIME TO RISE

Aries, the past few years have tested you deeply. More than any other sign, you’ve faced challenges around fully embodying your natural essence — courage, confidence, and forward momentum. Ruled by Mars in Astrology, the Roman god of war, you are meant to lead, initiate, and act boldly. Yet doubt, fear, and insecurity have often kept your fire contained, turning your battles inward.

The good news? 2026 marks a turning point.

After confronting inner struggles and learning important lessons about yourself, your spark begins to return — this time with greater wisdom, intention, and maturity. You are reclaiming your warrior spirit, not through force, but through self-mastery.

A major reason for this shift is the arrival of Saturn and Neptune into your sign, beginning early in the year after brief previews in 2025. Neptune removes illusions, helping you see yourself clearly and honestly. Saturn then asks you to act responsibly on that clarity, aligning your choices with reality rather than fear or avoidance.

At first, this may feel uncomfortable. Old habits of self-doubt and self-sabotage may surface. But with 2026 being the Year of the Fire Horse in Chinese astrology, momentum builds quickly. You’ll feel a familiar surge of confidence, helping you take ownership of your direction and destiny.

Eclipses throughout the year support fresh starts, especially around romance, creativity, friendships, and social influence. You’ll be drawn toward living more authentically and surrounding yourself with people who truly support your goals. Pluto continues to transform your social circles, meanwhile, removing misaligned connections and strengthening bonds with those who share your values.

These things said, the early part of the year may feel heavy, particularly around the February and March eclipses as career and long-term goals demand focus. A Solar Eclipse on February 17 brings a new start in a new organizational setting while the Lunar Eclipses on March 3 wraps up a role at work or an ongoing part of your day-to-day.

However, Mercury retrograde during this time may stir self-doubt or delays, especially if health or stress become issues (retrograde planets give the optical illusion of orbiting the Sun backwards – a symbolic invitation to retrace our steps). You may feel uncertain, especially if joining a new group, taking on a new project, or even considering a medical procedure. But this period can bring an important opportunity or connection that expands your professional reach if you stay present and engaged.

Now, spring is a powerful rebirth.

With multiple planets activating your sign alongside Saturn and Neptune, this becomes one of the most pivotal parts of the year. Confidence, assertiveness, and motivation return, helping you make meaningful progress.

Money matters may be top of mind as you focus on your resources and finances, and then lighter energy ensues late spring: short trips, new environments, learning and classroom settings all feature. Uranus entering Gemini will increase curiosity and mental stimulation, encouraging you to explore different ideas, skills, and local connections.

This may feed home matters too, as we enter the summer months; Jupiter in Cancer will expand domestic growth and emotional ties with loved ones, inspiring possible relocation and deepened family bonds. You’re laying the foundations for your future, Ram, though another Mercury retrograde throughout the month of July may slow things temporarily. Overall, expansion continues.

Mid-summer into fall, Jupiter boosts creativity, joy, romance, and self-expression as it begins a new transit through the sign of Leo. Eclipses in August corroborate this: a Solar Eclipse on August 12 brings a potential new romance while a Lunar Eclipse on August 28 helps you to release anxiety. At this time, you're being reminded to prioritize happiness and let go of the emotional weight you’ve carried for too long. You may find yourself launching artistic enterprises, attending summer concerts or even expanding your family – news of a pregnancy is possible.

The final quarter of the year, however, brings more intensity as Venus and Mercury retrograde through Scorpio beginning in October. Venus retrogrades are notorious for bringing relationship assessments (i.e.,with romantic ties, family members, business partner, etc.) and financial considerations. This period may involve reassessing trust, boundaries, or agreements, highlighting new investments, shared finances, commitments, and deepened relationships.

Mercury retrograde will compound things adding misunderstandings and other setbacks. The Sun’s influence, meanwhile, adds emphasis. Thankfully, both planets will station direct (i.e., move forward again) on November 14 bringing shifts. This period in your forecast may prove stressful, but these matters are meant to be resolved honestly and maturely – look for things to stabilize by the close of the year.

December sees hope fully restored. You may feel tempted to fall back into old doubts, but this year has proven how far you’ve come. 2026 is the year you finally choose yourself — trusting your strength, your vision, and the path ahead.

After time spent in uncertainty and isolation, you’re back. And this time, you’re dreaming bigger — and moving more intently.

We are officially on the other side of eclipse season. You made it! How do you feel? Not gonna lie, this energy was A LOT for me personally, and we’re still not in the clear. The full moon continues to wane as eclipse hangovers linger. What’s more, events from an eclipse can continue to unfold for up to three-to-six months – new chapters are now underway. Life will begin to settle as we enter the month of September and move through your forecast week. Plus, it’s Virgo season, which may actually prove to be a welcomed cosmic shift after an intense planetary line-up. For you Aries, returning to your regular routines should help you get your bearings. Whether counting steps, scheduling annual checkups, taking your pet to its vet appointment or clearing through clutter, a little organization will help clear your mind and bring reprieve. I understand you might feel a bit antsy, but there’s no need to overwhelm yourself. Just get back to the basics – one foot in front of the other. Let your mantra be to “chop wood and carry water” as you find your way back to a regular groove.

TAURUS/TAURUS RISING 2026: NO MORE SETTLING

Taurus, 2026 challenges you to finally give life to your dreams. In recent years, you’ve been focused on surviving — managing responsibilities, adapting to circumstances, and doing what’s required. Yet in the process, essential parts of yourself have been overlooked. Without realizing it, this has limited your growth.

The Universe is now asking you to see something clearly: you’ve been settling. Life may feel comfortable enough, but not deeply fulfilling. Acceptable, but not exceptional. In 2026, you are being called to raise your standards — not out of dissatisfaction, but because you are worthy of more.

For the past seven years, Uranus in your sign has disrupted your comfort zone, pushing you to release outdated attachments in all areas of life: career, home and family, relationships, etc. This unrest wasn’t caused by others. It came from your soul’s need for renewal. Now, as Saturn and Neptune activate your inner world, you are being asked to stop ignoring what you intrinsically know about yourself and your place in the world.

Neptune dissolves confusion and self-doubt, while Saturn demands accountability and mastery. Together, they sharpen your vision and strengthen your trust in your innate wisdom. Insights arrive powerfully, and once they do, they cannot be avoided. You are learning to step out of your own way.

This inner shift will encourage you to explore new environments and ideas. Jupiter moving through Cancer supports learning, spiritual growth, and mental expansion — whether through study, teaching, writing, or personal development. At the same time, Pluto continues to reshape your professional path, pushing you toward work that feels purposeful and aligned.

In fact, the year begins with strong emphasis on Capricorn energy, urging you to reflect on meaning, fulfillment, and long-term direction. You may feel restless, craving travel or a change of scenery. Taking a leap of faith early in the year could reveal opportunities that align more closely with your purpose.

Career growth follows. Whether through launching a business, gaining new credentials, changing roles, or pivoting entirely, professional ambition is highlighted. The winter months favor networking and visibility, and eclipses will support this momentum with a Solar Eclipse on February 17 initiating a new professional chapter, and a Lunar Eclipse on March 3 urging you to rise to the occasion.

Mercury retrograde between these eclipses may slow progress (retrograde planets give the optical illusion of orbiting the Sun backwards – a symbolic invitation to retrace our steps). Interviews may be delayed, plans rescheduled, or communication misunderstood. Still, these pauses should work in your favor, helping you refine your approach rather than rush ahead.

Spring brings more internal testing. Momentum may slow, requiring reassessment and strategic changes. Reality checks are part of the process, but they are not setbacks. You are building something meaningful, and that requires patience, flexibility, and bigger thinking.

As spring transitions into summer, financial matters and environmental changes come into focus. Uranus leaves your sign and enters Gemini opening new income streams, while Jupiter in Cancer continues to stimulate your mind. Learning, travel, and new subject matter may broaden your perspectives. However, Mercury retrograde in July may bring temporary disruptions — canceled trips, technology issues, or unexpected expenses. These challenges resolve by month’s end.

You may also feel emotionally unsettled in new surroundings, but once Mercury turns direct, stability returns. Jupiter strengthens home and family matters as it begins a new transit through the sign of Leo, helping you establish roots, improve living situations, and feel supported. Emotional nourishment and self-care become priorities.

August eclipses will also bring major developments at home. A Solar Eclipse on August 12 signals fresh beginnings in domestic life while the Lunar Eclipse on August 28 marks a departure from a familiar community or social circle. Moves, real estate decisions, or changes within the family may require adjustment, but ultimately create greater stability.

Late summer brings lighter energy. Romance, creativity, and joy return. Artistic projects, celebrations, or family milestones may take center stage. You may hear news of a pregnancy or bring a creative vision to life as summer comes to a close.

That said, relationship matters will intensify in the fall as Venus and Mercury retrograde in Scorpio during October and November. Venus – your ruling planet in Astrology – is notorious for bringing relationship and financial assessments while retrograde. Close partnerships — romantic, familial, or deeply personal — may be reassessed. Past connections may resurface, and unresolved dynamics will demand honesty.

Mercury retrograde will compound things prolonging misunderstandings and potential disputes. The Sun’s influence will add emphasis; thankfully, these planets will station direct (i.e., begin to move forward) on November 14. Resolution comes slowly, requiring patience and emotional maturity.

By December, clarity feels more assuring. You will know where you stand and who truly deserves your time, loyalty, and investment. Relationships may deepen and become more serious, reflecting your evolved sense of self-worth.

You seem to end 2026 no longer settling — grounded in your value, dreaming bigger, and ready to carry that confidence forward. New commitments and other intimate matters are highlighted, bringing reward and prosperity into 2027.

HAPPY NEW YEAR, GEMINI! Your full length horoscope for 2026 is below - a labor of love! If your reading for the new year resonates, please share. And if you're really inspired, buy me a coffee or donate to one of my favorite causes. Cheers to you!

GEMINI/GEMINI RISING 2026: LET'S GET CRAZY

The planet Uranus features prominently in your year-ahead forecast, especially if you were born early in the sign. Uranus is a disruptive energy; its Greek counterpart was Prometheus, a trickster character known to be rebellious. In many ways, this archetype is a good fit for your sign. Uranus and Prometheus were Sky Gods—Titans known for their brilliance and intellect. Over the coming months, you will be downloading new ideas, insights, and intel that inspire you to rebel against life as you know it.

You will welcome change in 2026, and that is a good thing. Of course, it will not be necessary to throw the baby out with the bathwater, dear Twins. Uranus can have a destabilizing effect that often feels abrupt, so you will want to be proactive in wielding its energy. You may also grow restless, and even a little mad given the state of the world. Be sure to stick to practices that keep you anchored while the Universe conspires on your behalf.

The year kicks off with a focus on new contracts and agreements that could prove lucrative. Whether merging in a new business or committing in a new relationship, such endeavors may be rewarding. You may also be filing taxes, confronting debt, or putting capital toward a real estate venture. With Jupiter in Cancer bringing opportunities for financial growth throughout the first half of 2026, you may truly be making it rain with cash and prosperity.

Career matters will then be emphasized, especially if you are pursuing a dream job or changing fields entirely. Winter eclipses usher in new starts, with a Solar Eclipse on February 17 inviting you to go big or go home. Pluto will corroborate as you consider new leaps of faith that expand your worldviews and build upon your vocational path.

A Lunar Eclipse on March 3, meanwhile, may see you leaving home and experiencing changes with family and loved ones. You may be finalizing domestic affairs so that you can stretch beyond your comfort zone and pursue more aspirational aims.

If you have been wanting to acquire a second degree, for example, get certified as a Yogi, walk the Camino Trail, or expand your spiritual beliefs and philosophies, the sky is the limit, Sky God. That said, Mercury retrograde through the month of March may deter your efforts toward professional advancement and promotion; patience will be required (retrograde planets give the optical illusion of orbiting the Sun backwards – a symbolic invitation to retrace our steps).

This energy will fill the spring season. Networking features as well, and you will be meeting people from different walks of life who have the potential to further your aims. Chance encounters are likely, and it is possible that you will be tapped to lead a collaborative venture or philanthropic cause. People will look to you for leadership, and it will be important to place yourself in good company with like minds.

The summer months will amplify your focus on money matters. You may be making a new purchase, receiving a hefty tax refund, or pulling in new streams of income. However, Mercury will retrograde again throughout the month of July, bringing possible financial disputes, late payments, or stalled negotiations. These hiccups should resolve by the end of summer.

New learning endeavors will also be on the rise. The second half of the year sees Jupiter expanding your mind. Whether entering new classroom settings, launching online platforms, joining community projects, or immersing yourself in new environments, curiosity will take you far.

It would behoove you to indulge this energy. A Solar Eclipse on August 12 could see you getting acclimated in foreign terrain, while the Lunar Eclipse on August 28 wraps something up on the career front. You may become an expat or leave your career to publish a book. Once again, there are no limits.

The fall months will be the most suspenseful. Domestic matters take on greater emphasis, and there is potential for love and romance, child’s play and recreation, and even news of a pregnancy. However, day-to-day responsibilities will soon grow heavy. Doctor appointments, pet care, childcare, elder, office projects, and everything in between may fill your schedule.

This period may be hectic as Venus and Mercury prepare to retrograde starting in October. Venus retrogrades are notorious for bringing assessments in relationships and with finances; you may be filing insurance claims, seeking financial aid, or dealing with veterinary or medical expenses. If undergoing a medical procedure, this could involve finding the right specialist. If collaborating on a major work project, you may be interviewing your support team.

Mercury retrograde adds another layer of delays and back-and-forth. There could involve missing paperwork, worker’s compensation, or medical test results that return inconclusive. The Sun will spotlight these matters, making this potentially the most stressful part of your forecast.

Thankfully, Venus and Mercury station direct on November 14 — i.e., begin to move forward —and outstanding matters begin resolving by year’s end. This portion of 2026 may feel like a cliffhanger, but patience will serve you well.

As December arrives, relationship matters dominate your time and offer a welcome distraction from the challenges you have been navigating. Holiday gatherings, time with loved ones, and strengthened bonds help you close the year on a stable and heart-centered note.

You may have to go a little insane to take advantage of what this year has in store — but there will never be a dull moment in 2026. You may find that you actually thrive in positive chaos.

We are officially on the other side of eclipse season. You made it! How do you feel? Not gonna lie, this energy was A LOT for me personally, and we’re still not in the clear. The full moon continues to wane as eclipse hangovers linger. What’s more, events from an eclipse can continue to unfold for up to three-to-six months – new chapters are now underway. Life will begin to settle as we enter the month of September and move through your forecast week. Plus, it’s Virgo season, which may actually prove to be a welcomed cosmic shift after an intense planetary line-up. For you Gemini, spending time at home and with loved ones might help you get your bearings. If doing renovation projects around the house, attending a family reunion, hosting guests for the upcoming holiday or simply spending time indoors to catch up on your latest Netflix binge, a little domesticity will help clear your mind and bring reprieve. I understand you might be feeling a bit anxious, but that’s no excuse to neglect your needs whether it’s quality time or alone time. Just get back to nurturing yourself. Let your mantra be to “chop wood and carry water” as you find your way back to a regular groove.

CANCER/CANCER RISING 2026: STEPPING INTO YOUR LEGACY

Your career and professional life take on a more serious tone in the coming months, Cancer. And I don’t just mean your 9-to-5. The Universe has plans for you, especially when it comes to your passions and purpose. You are legacy-building in 2026 courtesy of the planets Saturn and Neptune. Together, these luminaries will help bring your vocation and destiny to fruition.

Of course, this will not be easy. You must first be rid of delusions that cause you to undermine your skillset and expertise. Then, you must put forth the effort. You must discern when to set a goal and act on it. What’s more, there is no structure or rulebook available to tell you how to do this. You will be making up the rules as you go along, defining your own path.

This can be exciting—and terrifying. But again, the Universe has a plan and will conspire on your behalf if you are willing to step up to the plate. The outer planets are setting you up for success as well: Pluto is transforming your lifestyle, work, and daily affairs, while Jupiter—the planet of luck and fortune—has been traveling through your sign for six months now, increasing confidence and self-assuredness.

Uranus, meanwhile, has also brought support through friends and important networks, and now this planet aims to free you from subconscious fears and blocks that hinder your efforts. So you see, there are no more excuses. No more “wait and see.” You are taking your life and your legacy into your own hands, and we will all be waiting on the edge of our seats with anticipation for what you will accomplish.

As we open your forecast, relationships take center stage. A traveling caravan of planets—Mars, Venus, Mercury, and the Sun—shine a spotlight on the significant people in your life: spouse, close friends, romantic partners, family members, and more. There is much demand from others, especially if celebrating milestones or wrapping up an extended holiday season with loved ones.

You may also be forging new partnerships and agreements throughout the winter months. Eclipses corroborate this: a Solar Eclipse on February 17 brings a new merger while the Lunar Eclipse on March 3 sees negotiations coming to an end.

You may be signing a contract, receiving a business loan or stipend, or winning a lawsuit. However, Mercury will be retrograde throughout the month of March, prolonging these new beginnings (retrograde planets symbolically invite us to retrace our steps).

If pursuing work in academia, for example, there may be delays with a grant or scholarship. If traveling abroad for work, documents such as a visa or a passport may require additional processing. If applying for a business loan, paperwork could go missing.

Retrograde planets demand patience and diligence. All will resolve by spring, just as career matters begin to amplify. Whether launching an enterprise, pursuing a promotion, or entering a new career entirely, pressure will be felt to level up and claim authority over your work in the world. Consider this a Masterclass—you are truly being tapped for greatness, which will require discipline, focus, and realism.

As spring unfolds into summer, networking features prominently, especially if attending professional conferences or spring weddings. You may be able to catch your breath by the Memorial Day holiday after a rather assertive start to 2026. But summer brings a shift: Jupiter's new ingress to the sign of Leo generates favor around money and finances.

Opportunities to expand your wealth—or cultivate greater self-esteem—are highlighted. That said, as Biggie Smalls once said, “more money, more problems.” Jupiter can feel like a winning lottery ticket, but you still must manage budgets, taxes, and pay your bills. It may be tempting to splurge, especially if receiving a promotion or seeing returns from real estate venture. But be sure to manage the abundance coming your way wisely.

The rest of the summer brings short trips and domestic matters, while fall turns the spotlight on children, creative pursuits, and romance. This surge carries you through the end of the year with Venus and Mercury preparing to retrograde in October.

If single, you could meet someone during this time. If partnered, you may celebrate romantic milestones. Children feature strongly—you may hear news of a pregnancy or experience one yourself. Brainchildren in the form of artistic ideas will also flourish.

However, Venus retrogrades are notorious for bringing assessments in relationships and with finances. If planning a wedding, you may be reviewing vendors, venues, and budgets. A former romantic partner could reach out, prompting reflection. If collaborating on creative projects, creative differences may surface. This could also involve fertility-related considerations if planning a family.

Mercury retrograde intensifies these themes. Misunderstandings, delays, and back-and-forth communications may arise—whether with vendors, romantic partners, or children. The Sun shines a spotlight on these matters, calling for patience and flexibility.

Mercury and Venus station direct on November 14 (i.e., move forward) bringing resolution to these assessments, and stability returns fully by the end of the year making this period feel like a cliffhanger.

Thankfully, with December comes a more productive rhythm. Doctor appointments, work projects, holiday planning, and daily responsibilities will keep your plate full. You may welcome the busy pace after a suspenseful fall, but do not lose sight of the greater developing story: your purpose and destiny are beginning to take center stage.

LEO/LEO RISING 2026: THE REAL GLOW UP

All over social media, I’ve seen astrologers and other readers say that “this is the year for Leo — the glow-up is for Leo.” As a Leo, I’m hype and here for it. As an astrologer, I’m also managing my expectations. Jupiter enters our sign in July, and that will absolutely feel like a glow-up. But until then, we have work to do.

Jupiter is transiting the sign of Cancer during the first half of the year — the sign that precedes Leo on the zodiac wheel — forcing all Leos to do a deep dive, go within, and connect with Source. Much of 2025 felt like isolation for many Leos who were navigating feelings of melancholy, building spiritual practices, and working through inner fears and anxieties.

If that was you, Lion, you’ve grown from the inside out. You’ve acquired greater awareness of your internal workings and expanded your intuition. Jupiter has served as a torch through the darkness of your subconscious mind, revealing precious gems, stones, and wisdom that lie within you. Having gained such insights, you will be poised for ascension when Jupiter ingresses your sign later this year. But you’ll need to get your other affairs in order in the meantime.

In fact, the year begins with plenty to do — doctor appointments, annual checkups, project launches, health regimens, ongoing responsibilities, and everything in between. A traveling caravan of planets moving through Capricorn (Mars, Venus, Mercury, and the Sun) will keep your plate full, ensuring you hit the ground running in the new year.

Eventually, relationship matters will take on greater focus too, as Pluto brings a transformative tone to connections with others (i.e., close friends, romantic ties, family member, etc.), and with important mergers, partnerships, and new contracts. Winter eclipses usher in a new relationship beginning with a Solar Eclipse on February 17, while financial dealings and potential agreements are finalized with the Lunar Eclipse on March 3.

Mercury will be retrograde during the last month of winter, however, bringing hiccups and back-and-forth regarding partnerships, intimate affairs, and joint ventures (retrograde planets create the optical illusion of orbiting the Sun backward — a symbolic invitation to retrace our steps.) Delays may last until early spring, demanding patience and flexibility. But spring does bring a steadier pace.

You remain busy in the meantime with potential travel, higher learning, and new opportunities that could lead to career growth and social engagements. Saturn and Neptune — the heavy hitters of the year — will work in tandem to help you bring a dream to fruition. Whether moving abroad, returning to academia, launching an enterprise, or building upon personal beliefs, your aspirations will broaden your horizons and require focused effort.

Now, at the start of summer, another Mercury retrograde may have you seeking retreat. You’re on the brink of big change, potentially craving some solitude to contemplate your next steps. You might be considering major decisions or simply needing time away from the noise. Inner dialogues see you steeped in reflection, so give yourself permission to lean into this pause.

The saying, “no pain, no gain,” comes to mind as you prepare for Jupiter’s glow-up – you may be shedding old versions of yourself. Clarity arrives toward the end of July as we enter your birthday season, and you can expect to be surrounded by supportive friends and allies.

With Uranus in Gemini, you’ll begin to align with like-minded people for shared causes — possibly even stepping into leadership roles or becoming influential in your community. Once you find your people, the sky will open and the universe will begin to conspire on your behalf. Enter your glow-up!

Summer remains active promoting self-growth and development. and eclipses corroborate: a Solar Eclipse in your sign on August 12 opens personal new chapters and supports self-realization. The Lunar Eclipse on August 28 ends ongoing obligations and entanglements that drain your resources. You’re dropping weight — literally and figuratively — so you can soar with greater ease.

Fall emphasizes short trips, finances and learning meanwhile, followed by a shift toward home and family. You may be relocating, investing in real estate, growing your family, celebrating milestones, or renovating your space. Domestic matters dominate the final months of the year, with Venus and Mercury retrograde beginning in October.

Venus retrograde is notorious for relationship and financial assessments — domestic partnerships, family matters and real estate ventures may come up for review. You might be reconnecting with an estranged loved one, developing care plans for an aging relative, or renegotiating home settlements. Mercury retrograde adds potential delays, bringing misunderstandings and logistical hiccups, particularly around property and renovations.

The Sun highlights these matters throughout October and into November. But Mercury and Venus will finally station direct (i.e., begin to move forward) on November 14. Resolutions may not fully land until year’s end, making this portion of 2026 somewhat of a cliffhanger. But at least you’ll notice a shift that brings calm and relief.

That said, December roars with fun, romance, creativity and recreation. Whether welcoming a new family member, attending holiday events, or enjoying a love affair, the year ends on a lighter, joyful note — still very much in step with your glow-up. This energy will carry you forward into 2027.

We are officially on the other side of eclipse season. You made it! How do you feel? Not gonna lie, this energy was A LOT for me personally, and we’re still not in the clear. The full moon continues to wane as eclipse hangovers linger. What’s more, events from an eclipse can continue to unfold for up to three-to-six months – new chapters are now underway. Life will begin to settle as we enter the month of September and move through your forecast week. Plus, it’s Virgo season, which may actually prove to be a welcomed cosmic shift after an intense planetary line-up. For you Leo, focusing on the things and people that matter most might help you get your bearings. Whether spending time with those you love or investing time toward the things you value, you may find such intentionality helps to clear your mind and bring reprieve. I understand you might be navigating scarcity thinking, but you’d be wise to adjust back to an attitude of gratitude in order to call in more abundance. If tightening your budget or simply commanding more of what you’re worth, let your mantra be to “chop wood and carry water” as you find your way back to a regular groove.

VIRGO/VIRGO RISING 2026: GETTING RE-ACCLIMATED

After a year of intensity in your closest relationships — i.e., friends, romantic partners, spouse and family members — you finally get to sigh relief. Having worked through challenges, confronted your own relationship patterns, ended strained ties, and committed with greater intention, you’ve passed the exam. You’ve completed a Masterclass in relating. Now, your attention can shift to more pressing matters: your health and wellness, financial investments, and career development.

Uranus is set to ingress (enter) Gemini this spring, generating significant activity in your work and professional life. You may find yourself teaching, writing, training, or even changing careers entirely. The shake-ups may not always feel comfortable, but you’re being encouraged to use this energy to your advantage. Ultimately, you’re seeking more autonomy to pursue a vocational path that aligns with your purpose.

Meanwhile, Saturn and Neptune will ask you to examine your entanglements — business relationships, contractual commitments, debt, and other shared financial or emotional matters. Neptune will urge you to see your obligations clearly, for better or worse, while Saturn will require that you act on what is. No more risky investments if you already sense they won’t be profitable, whether in joint real estate ventures, financial mergers, or marital commitments.

Pluto, the planet of transformation, continues eliminating aspects of your lifestyle that keep you under-living and in poor health in the meantime. Whether through diet changes, work schedules, or daily routines, this powerful influence will remove what blocks you from cultivating a better quality of life.

Clearly, your attention is needed in several life areas. The year ahead brings maturity and plenty of “adulting.” But at least things begin on a playful note as a traveling caravan of planets — Mars, Venus, Mercury, and the Sun — moves through fellow earth sign Capricorn.

Children and creative projects take the spotlight. This could look like back-to-school activities after winter break, fertility treatments if you’re starting a family, or the launch of creative ventures. Romance is also in the forecast, whether meeting someone new or indulging in a passionate affair.

Then, momentum quickly shifts to your health. One by one, that traveling caravan will join Pluto, further emphasizing the need to return to regular workouts and schedule annual checkups.

This focus intensifies during the latter half of winter as the first eclipse season of the year arrives. A Solar Eclipse on February 17 brings a fresh start regarding your wellness and daily routines — you may begin a new project at work or connect with a new specialist. Two weeks later, the March 3 Lunar Eclipse in your sign closes out a personal chapter and life cycle.

You may be making major lifestyle decisions after the growth you experienced in 2025, and you’ll feel more self-assured as a result. However, Mercury stations retrograde between the eclipses throughout March, bringing delays and revisions (retrograde planets give the optical illusion of orbiting the Sun backward — symbolically inviting us to retrace our steps).

Setbacks encountered may involve others. You could be supporting a loved one through a medical matter, relying on a partner for support, or facing delays around a project launch due to misunderstandings with colleagues. These challenges will resolve by the spring, and as events unfold, you’ll feel increasingly organized, managing commitments more effectively, and beginning new chapters centered on your health and lifestyle.

Travel, adventures, and career matters soon take center stage. You may be focused on work abroad, defending a thesis, or pursuing a degree that supports professional advancement. You’ll also meet new people and expand your network as Jupiter wraps up its transit through Cancer.

Chance encounters can lead to fresh opportunities, so putting yourself out there — socially and professionally — will be beneficial. Conferences, weddings, and special events bring you into contact with diverse groups of people.

That said, Mercury retrogrades again as summer begins, potentially interrupting social engagements. A conference may be postponed, work obligations may interfere with time off, or social plans may need rescheduling. These hiccups persist through July and resolve in August.

By then, you may start to feel low on energy. The first half of 2026 is dense and busy, while the latter half draws you inward. You may begin to spend more time writing, researching, pursuing spiritual growth, or working through grief, inner fears, and anxieties. Jupiter’s new transit through Leo in July initiates a slower, more introspective phase, encouraging you to lie low and to attend to your inner world. The result is greater wisdom, clarity, and maturity — all of which support your confidence and outward growth.Of course, this won’t stop you from enjoying your birthday! And as fall arrives, be mindful of spending.

Reaching October, short trips, new learning, and increased communication take focus. These themes continue through year’s end as Venus and Mercury station retrograde. Venus retrogrades bring relationship and financial assessment. You may apply for financial aid toward educational pursuits, undergo a property appraisal, or revisit collaborative research projects.

Mercury retrograde adds potential misunderstandings and delays. But both planets station direct (i.e., begin to move forward) on November 14, bringing resolution; matters may feel more settled by the end of the year.

Thankfully, domestic activities then take precedence. You’ll likely spend more time with family and loved ones during the holiday season — a welcome reprieve in December after a suspenseful fall.

Rest assured, the dedication and hard work you put into 2026 will be rewarded. This year sees you getting your priorities in order, setting the tone for 2027.

LIBRA/LIBRA RISING 2026: A MASTERCLASS ON RELATIONSHIPS

The year ahead emphasizes relationships, Libra. Not only will Venus — your ruling planet in Astrology that governs partnerships of all kinds — be retrograde for much of the fall season, but other planets, including Saturn, Neptune, and Pluto, will also be of influence. Think of 2026 as a Masterclass in forming healthy connections.

Saturn and Neptune have been active since 2025, urging you to see your relationships clearly for what they are — and then take action based on that awareness. If you’ve been ignoring difficult issues with someone important, whether a close friend, family member, romantic partner, spouse, or business partner, this is the year you’ll need to confront hard truths and have necessary conversations.

Through this process, your relationships act like mirrors, revealing your own patterns and habits — both positive and challenging. This can be eye-opening and sometimes uncomfortable, but ultimately, you are learning and growing.

Pluto is also at work, helping you remove fears and anxieties that keep you from being your authentic self. This influence encourages joy and happiness. Romantic relationships, projects involving children, and creative work may trigger these transformative experiences.

The Universe is essentially molding you this year. 2026 is a year of self-realization. If you’ve been denying yourself, undervaluing yourself, or settling for less than you deserve, the planets are stepping in to correct that. You may experience moments of grief, as well as gratitude — life is a series of both.

The year begins with a traveling caravan of planets — Mars, Venus, Mercury, and the Sun — focused on domestic matters. Renovations, relocations, and family-centered activities will be highlighted. You may finish holiday events or tackle home projects. But soon, these planets will join Pluto, bringing momentum to love and winter recreation.

Romance features prominently. If single, you might meet someone new. Creative projects also take the spotlight, as well as news of a pregnancy. You could be planning a wedding, attending sporting events, or enjoying winter festivals. What’s more, this energy coincides with the first pair of eclipses for the year.

The Solar Eclipse on February 17 signals a new chapter around romance, children, or creative projects. Two weeks later, the Lunar Eclipse on March 3 finalizes certain agreements and transactions. This might be interpreted as compensation for creative work, investments toward family planning, or asserting your worth in a romantic relationship — eclipses often bring major shifts or closures.

However, Mercury retrograde between the eclipses may cause delays in March (retrograde planets give the optical illusion of moving backward around the Sun — symbolizing a period of reviews and retraced steps). These setbacks may affect your routines: fertility appointments may need rescheduling, wedding plans could shift, date nights might get canceled, or pet care brings interference. These delays resolve by spring, so patience is key.

Interestingly, spring brings amplified activity in your relationships. Loved ones, romantic partners, and new connections are highlighted. You may be healing old wounds or meeting potential business associates, and throughout, discernment will be important — no rose-colored glasses. To achieve the relationship experience you desire, you must make intentional decisions.

The rest of spring focuses on contracts, important partnerships, travels abroad, higher learning, and career demands. It’s a busy season, but it could lead to exciting new opportunities. Jupiter in Cancer in the early months provides work and professional opportunities. By July, Jupiter enters Leo, expanding your influence within different groups and associations. You may be building an online platform, planning conferences, or spending more time with friends — your social calendar fills, and popularity grows.

Just remember, you cannot be everywhere at once. Eclipses will enhance Jupiter’s transit as a Solar Eclipse on August 12 brings new beginnings in important networks — leadership roles, philanthropic causes, passion projects, or new departments. The Lunar Eclipse that follows on August 28 may see you wrapping up responsibilities, or transitioning into new collaborations. Summer opens windows of opportunity.

Eventually, you may need to retreat toward the end of summer before your birthday season. Fall will bring another surge of personal momentum before Venus and Mercury retrograde in October.

Venus retrogrades are notorious for bringing relationship and financial assessments. This may involve property appraisals, salary negotiations, or revisiting agreements in personal or professional partnerships. Venus retrograde will insist on careful review, while Mercury retrograde may cause delays or misunderstandings. The Sun highlights these transactions, adding focus.

Thankfully, Mercury and Venus station direct on November 14 (i.e., move forward again), though matters may not fully settle until year-end. The holiday season brings domestic focus, pleasure, learning, and communication in the meantime. You may be traveling for the holidays, hosting gatherings, or taking a baking class to prepare for Christmas dinner. Holiday card exchanges and events, as well as family time bring joy.

2026 closes on a mentally active note, with new surroundings and learning opportunities stimulating your mind. After a stressful fall, you’ll gain clarity and fresh perspectives, setting the stage for even stronger connections in 2027.

We are officially on the other side of eclipse season. You made it! How do you feel (comment below)? Not gonna lie, this energy was A LOT for me personally, and we’re still not in the clear. The full moon continues to wane as eclipse hangovers linger. What’s more, events from an eclipse can continue to unfold for up to three-to-six months – new chapters are now underway. Life will begin to settle as we enter the month of September and move through your forecast week. Plus, it’s Virgo season, which may actually prove to be a welcomed cosmic shift after an intense planetary line-up. For you Libra, rest is what will help you get your bearings, and I mean that literally. Whether spending time in retreat, going on a retreat, or dipping off radar for a bit, doing so will help to clear your mind and bring reprieve. I understand you might be in a social mood, and that’s fine. But don’t underestimate how much networking and collaborating drains your battery. You’d be wise to take some down time, or the Universe might have to do it for you. Schedule that procedure, take time off from work, rsvp “no” to a couple of outings; let your mantra be to “chop wood and carry water” as you find your way back to a regular groove.

SCORPIO/SCORPIO RISING 2026: FOCUS ON PERSONAL MATTERS

The year ahead feels personal and introspective, Scorpio. Rather than big fireworks or unexpected plot twists, your focus will be on matters closer to home — literally and figuratively.

Pluto may bring changes to your physical space and environment, including shifting dynamics with loved ones and potential property investments. Saturn and Neptune will be highly influential throughout 2026 too, especially when it comes to your health. Neptune will encourage you to keep up with doctor appointments and not sweep concerns under the rug, while Saturn insists you manage your responsibilities, routines and daily affairs more effectively.

Meanwhile, Uranus enters Gemini, bringing developments in contracts and intimate matters. You may be forging a new business, signing a marriage license, becoming someone’s power-of-attorney, or divesting from a partnership. These transitions could be freeing and lucrative, but will require releasing attachments to old arrangements.

The year begins with a traveling caravan of planets — Mars, Venus, Mercury, and the Sun — moving through Capricorn. This energy will focus on your surrounding environment and familiar settings impacting short trips, classroom learning, ongoing correspondence, online communities, car maintenance, and new cities where you may decide to relocate.

Then, by the end of January, home and family matters intensify. You may be navigating new living arrangements, investing in real estate, or managing care for an aging relative.

This timing coincides with the first eclipse season of 2026. A Solar Eclipse on February 17 brings a fresh start at home, while the Lunar Eclipse on March 3 wraps up important network-related matters. You might say goodbye to friends if relocating, or lend support to a community-focused cause.

However, Mercury retrograde between these eclipses may bring delays in March (retrograde planets appear to move backward around the Sun, symbolically inviting us to retrace our steps), which may affect children, creative projects, or romantic partners. Examples include challenges enrolling a child in a new school district, adjusting to a domestic partnership in a new home, or shifting creative deadlines. Patience will be required; these matters resolve by spring.

That said, spring is much busier! Your plate will full with annual check-ups, work projects, veterinarian appointments, and other responsibilities, alongside relationship matters and new agreements on the rise. Make sure your affairs are in order if creating a trust, filing insurance claims, negotiating a raise, or caring for loved ones, for examples.

Now, summer brings wanderlust and adventure thanks to Jupiter in Cancer. You might book the trip of a lifetime, return to academia, or learn a foreign language. Hope returns after a heavy start to the year. But Mercury retrograde in July may cause travel hiccups — delayed visas or canceled flights. These setbacks will resolve too, by the end of summer.

Career demands take on even greater focus when Jupiter enters the sign of Leo in July, opening windows of opportunity. This may include launching a business, earning a promotion, or building a long-term legacy.

The August eclipse season adds to career momentum: the Solar eclipse on August 12 may spark a new start or advancement in your vocation, while the Lunar Eclipse on August 28 highlights putting your best foot forward toward your goals. You might retire to focus on a personal bucket list, be invited to lead a collaborative passion project, or launch a creative endeavor involving children and youth.

These activities will eventually feed networking and new affiliations. You’ll be interfacing with more people, aligned with like minds for shared causes. Whether attending a wedding or planning a conference, you’re influence is set to expand and you’ll be making great impressions.

That said, the beginning of fall brings a brief pause for you to catch your breath. You may need down time after a whirlwind year-to-date. But life picks up in October – a surge of momentum will build – before Venus and Mercury retrograde bringing a period of review.

Venus retrogrades prompt relationship assessments — romantic ties, family, or business partners — and financial considerations. In your sign, these reviews may center your appearance, your aesthetic, personal goals and independent achievements. Examples include editing headshots, undergoing a performance review, evaluating a creative project with your stamp attached, or even considering cosmetic procedures.

Mercury retrograde brings back-and-forth and uncertainty, while the Sun shines a spotlight on these matters. Thankfully, Venus and Mercury station direct (i.e., begin to move forward) on November 14, paving the way for resolutions to unfold continuing through the end of 2026.

The final month of the year sees you focused on money and finances. You may receive a holiday bonus or decide to treat yourself after a suspenseful fall.

Remember, 2026 is a very personal year – private matters will be prioritized. Taking life one month at a time while being present will allow for meaningful change. By engaging with what is happening around you, you’ll set the stage for even more positive transformation entering 2027.

SAGITTARIUS/SAGITTARIUS RISING 2026: GOD'S STRONGEST WARRIOR

There’s no way to sugarcoat it, Sagittarius — 2026 will test you. But not in the heavy-lifting sense; rather, it will test your flexibility and adaptability.

Relationships with significant others — close friends, family, romantic partners, or spouses — may undergo sudden developments. Chance encounters could even lead to major life events, while changing dynamics may result in parting ways.

Your mind will also be highly stimulated, especially if you are navigating new surroundings, returning to school, or writing your memoir. Pluto in Aquarius is transforming how you think, creating a reorientation to your life — whether becoming an expat, adjusting to a new office environment, or adapting to other learning curves.

Children feature prominently this year too, courtesy of the planets Saturn and Neptune. This includes human children, fur babies, and creative “babies” such as artistic projects. Effort and focus will be required, especially if trying to conceive or launch a creative venture. You’ll need to ground your enthusiasm and balance your energy carefully.

Meanwhile, Jupiter, your ruling planet in Astrology, will expand ongoing commitments and new adventures. You’ll be pooling resources and energy toward broader aims like travel, higher learning, and other experiences that expand your horizons. With so much potential, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed — that’s why flexibility will be key. As a mutable sign, you can pivot when necessary, while clinging less to traditional comforts.

Now, the year begins with a cluster of planets moving through Capricorn — Mars, Mercury, Venus, and the Sun — concentrating energy on money matters. Major purchases, advocating for higher pay, or budgeting for home improvements are highlighted. By the end of January, mental pursuits and curiosities rise. Short trips, coursework, or new academic environments capture your attention.

February brings the first eclipses of the year, meanwhile. The Solar Eclipse on February 17 signals a new beginning in learning or community involvements, while the Lunar Eclipse on March 3 wraps up career-related matters. You may acquire a license or certification that can be applied to the training of others, or adjusting in a new community following relocation.

Mercury retrograde between these eclipses may bring hiccups in March, however, particularly around domestic matters (retrograde planets appear to move backward around the Sun, symbolically inviting us to retrace our steps). Changes in living arrangements, home renovations, or a child’s transition into a new school may create delays. That said, these matters will resolve by spring, requiring patience.

Interestingly, spring highlights children, romance, and creative projects. You may be working with youth, expanding your family, starting a new love affair, or launching artistic endeavors. Neptune encourages clarity in these areas, while Saturn asks you to be responsible and realistic — no more rose-colored glasses in romance, sweeping child rearing issues under the rug, or doubting your creative abilities.

What’s more, as your daily schedule fills with responsibilities, it will be important not to overextend yourself. Relationship matters intensify in late spring, and by early summer, new commitments and obligations arrive. Whether sending kids to summer camp or taking a romantic relationship to the next level, Jupiter in Cancer will increase your investments of time, love, and money.

Another Mercury retrograde in July, meanwhile, may cause temporary setbacks in contracts and agreements, and other joint ventures. These challenges resolve by the end of summer, coinciding with Jupiter’s entry to the sign of Leo. This period favors aspirational goals: travel abroad, work sponsorships, grants, or scholarships are just a few examples of how you might experience this transit. Opportunities for growth through purposeful aims feature.

The August eclipse season will add to Jupiter’s momentum: a Solar Eclipse on August 12 will encourage you to make a wish for a dream to manifest, while the Lunar Eclipse on August 28 may see you leaving your comfort zone for an exciting new journey. Mercury retrograde may work in your favor if you take a leap of faith.

By late summer, professional demands, networking, and social events pick up. Conferences, weddings, and other gatherings see you interfacing with folks and making lasting impressions. However, after this busy period, you may need a break. The fall sees Venus and Mercury retrograde in October, drawing you inward toward more introspection.

Venus retrogrades prompt relationship and financial assessments – from romantic ties and family matters to business partnerships. You may be contemplating your investments in a particular group setting, with a friend or in an important affiliation. This could also look like an internal review of relationships with others.

Mercury retrograde will then bring delays and internal dialogues that foster reflection and instigate uncertainty. You may be unsure of where you fit with others, and the Sun will highlight imbalances in these areas urging focused attention. You may be trying to support a loved one in need or even grappling with grief toward an important connection. Be sure to exercise patience with yourself as a process unfolds.

Thankfully, Venus and Mercury station direct (i.e., begin to move forward) on November 14, bringing clarity and resolution. Though matters won’t fully stabilize until year-end, the Sun will have ingressed (entered) your sign in December, bringing personal momentum and renewed energy.

Remember, 2026 asks for flexibility and adaptability, particularly regarding your own growth, relationships, and other passionate pursuits. If you can remain present and engaged, you’ll begin to notice meaningful progress as opportunities unfold.

We are officially on the other side of eclipse season. You made it! How do you feel (comment below)? Not gonna lie, this energy was A LOT for me personally, and we’re still not in the clear. The full moon continues to wane as eclipse hangovers linger. What’s more, events from an eclipse can continue to unfold for up to three-to-six months – new chapters are now underway. Life will begin to settle as we enter the month of September and move through your forecast week. Plus, it’s Virgo season, which may actually prove to be a welcomed cosmic shift after an intense planetary line-up. For you Sagittarius, career matters are highlighted, and in a good way. Whether getting ready to launch an entrepreneurial endeavor, considering a professional pivot, or simply busy with work projects, you may find this build-up of activity helps to clear your mind and bring reprieve. Of course, all work and no play makes a dull Archer; thankfully, you play as hard as you grind! Just be careful not to put too much on your plate and work smarter not harder. Be intentional with your energy and let your mantra be to “chop wood and carry water” as you find your way back to a regular groove.

CAPRICORN/CAPRICORN RISING 2026: A WELL DESERVED PAT ON THE BACK

For the first time in over a decade, Capricorn, I can write a horoscope for you without using the word “transformation.” Your metamorphosis is complete. Pluto — which occupied your sign from 2008 to 2024 — has moved on to Aquarius and will not return for another 246 years.

You can finally breathe easier and focus on aspects of life that don’t involve personal upheaval. You can take a moment to reflect on your growth over the years and give yourself credit for surviving a Pluto transit.

Life continues, of course, but you’re doing alright. Pluto’s new position in Aquarius shifts focus toward money, finances, and resources for you, which will become especially important in February. Saturn and Neptune emphasize domestic matters, meanwhile. You may be investing in property, expanding your family, or healing strained relationships.

Uranus in Gemini brings changes to your daily routines in the meantime — you may be launching a new enterprise, updating your fitness regimen, or cultivating autonomy in your schedule. Ultimately, you seem to be focused on creating a life that prioritizes your own goals.

Now, Jupiter in Cancer brings blessings in connections with others— friendships, romantic relationships, business partnerships, and family ties. New partnership agreements and commitments will expand further when Jupiter moves into Leo later in the year. Life will continue with its surprises; thankfully, you don’t have to be God’s strongest warrior this year. You only need to just be.

The year begins with a stellium of planets in your sign — Mars, Venus, Mercury, and the Sun — bringing focus to your growth, personal plans, projects, and even vanity changes. This is your birthday season: ambitious, energized, and ready to kick off the year with momentum. Use thi energy wisely.

Soon, money matters take center stage as the traveling caravan of planets joins Pluto. Expect focus on purchasing power, property investments, financial negotiations, and other transactions. This coincides with the first eclipse season of the year.

A Solar Eclipse on February 17 ushers in a new start that could bring abundance. The Lunar Eclipse on March 3 wraps up activities centering broader goals and aspirations. You might earn a certification that boosts your earning potential, for example, or turn a property investment overseas into a revenue-generating venture like an Airbnb.

Mercury retrograde in March may slow negotiations and communications, however (retrograde planets appear to move backward around the Sun — symbolically encouraging us to retrace our steps). Miscommunications are likely, especially around transactions and even grant applications. But these issues resolve by spring as domestic activities expand.

Saturn and Neptune in Aries highlight discernment and discipline on the home and family fronts. You may need to address long-avoided family dynamics, take on caregiving responsibilities, or tackle home repairs. Facing these matters will teach you to better parent and care for yourself. Thankfully, this energy blends with fun, joy, romance, children, and recreation during the spring months, before busy days take over.

Your schedule will soon be full. Uranus may prompt adjustments in routines, offloaded projects, or changes to your diet and exercise. Daily life fills with doctor visits, veterinarian appointments, work tasks, and household chores. Relationships will also become more prominent as the summer approaches.

July brings another Mercury retrograde, however, generating potential setbacks in connections with others, such as tensions, disagreements, and other minor delays. By late summer, these matters resolve as intimate and partnership-related activities take precedence. Jupiter’s entry into Leo will expand your commitments, which may involve business contracts, custody discussions, or even wedding planning.

Jupiter’s influence is largely positive. Challenges faced often serve a greater purpose or opportunity for growth. The August eclipses reinforce this energy: a Solar Eclipse on August 12 brings new beginnings in an important partnership. A Lunar Eclipse on August 28 sees resolution to ongoing discussions that lead to compromise.

These could involve securing a business space if opening a brick-and-mortar shop, for example, or renting a new apartment in a new neighborhood. Activities in these areas continue throughout the remainder of the year, while the rest of summer highlights travel, new adventures, and career development.

Networking opportunities will increase too, connecting you with diverse individuals, and attending events that generate professional favor and advancement. But fall sees Venus and Mercury retrograde in October, prompting assessments of relationships and financial matters.

Social engagements, professional events, and conferences may require re-evaluation. Whether working with vendors or collaborating on a team project, you may be reviewing a budget, or your investments in certain affiliations. Mercury retrograde brings back-and-forth and delays, while the Sun adds emphasis, demanding focus. Eventually, Venus and Mercury will station direct (i.e., begin to move forward) on November 14, bringing resolution, although matters may not fully stabilize until year-end.

Nevertheless, by December, you enter your annual rest period, a time to retreat, recharge, and be fully unbothered. Your year wraps quietly as the fall whirlwind settles into winter, and you’ll be reminded once more that things always work out – you no longer need to be on high alert.

After years of navigating Pluto’s intense influence, you can now explore life freely, confident that having left Kansas, the world of Oz is yours to relish.

AQUARIUS/AQUARIUS RISING 2026: A DEEPLY TRANSFORMATIVE YEAR AHEAD

Pluto has newly entered your sign, Aquarius, and its mission is to transform you from the inside out. Until 2044, this planet will gradually strip away outdated aspects of your being, reshaping you into your most authentic self.

This process may feel like an identity crisis at times, but the self-mastery and power you gain will support you for the rest of your life. What’s more, you won’t go through this alone. Uranus in Gemini will connect you with your true essence, inspiring creativity, love, and recreation that bring lightness and play to a rather heavy Pluto transit.

Saturn and Neptune in Aries will sharpen your mind in the meantime, helping you cut through mental fog and unlock your intellectual genius, while Jupiter in Cancer encourages improvements to your health, wellness, and daily routines. When Jupiter enters Leo in July, your relationships with significant others will flourish — close friendships, romantic ties, your spouse, relatives, business partner, etc. — further reinforcing that change does not need to happen alone.

The Universe is orchestrating events on your behalf, like a symphony of angels supporting your metamorphosis. This transformative experience will be subtle — slow and steady — but you have already begun your personal hero/heroine’s journey.

The year begins with rest. A traveling caravan of planets — Mars, Venus, Mercury, and the Sun — is transiting through the sign of Capricorn, encouraging retreat and reflection. You may feel drawn to solitude over socializing, and leaning into this pause will be beneficial.

Your birthday season follows, bringing renewed energy and vitality, and the same planetary caravan will join Pluto in your sign, amplifying personal growth and independence. This aligns with the first eclipse season of the year: a Solar Eclipse in your sign brings a fresh start and personal new beginning. A Lunar Eclipse on March 3 wraps up ongoing entanglements for the purpose of self-preservation. You may be ending a toxic association, changing jobs, or achieving breakthroughs in therapy, for examples.

Mercury retrograde in March may delay some of these fresh starts, however, particularly as it relates to your values, agreements, or financial dealings (retrograde planets give the optical illusion of orbiting the Sun backwards – a symbolic invitation to retrace our steps). You might need to renegotiate terms of a divestment of sorts, or clarify commitments before moving forward. But these challenges will resolve by spring.

In fact, by spring, you’ll be ready to explore new curiosities, communities, and learning opportunities. Domestic matters, creative pursuits, and child’s play also take center stage. Romance may bloom, and news of a pregnancy or a creative “birth” could occur. Spring truly feels alive with growth and new possibilities.

Summer brings busier days, meanwhile, as Jupiter ends its transit through Cancer. Ongoing responsibilities — doctor appointments, work projects, and daily chores — may stretch you thin. Mercury retrograde in July can complicate schedules with miscommunications, health retests, or even disorganized volunteer opportunities.

Relationships with significant others will add tension, but Jupiter’s new transit through Leo will inspire growth and expansion in connections. Balancing obligations will be key, then, whether planning a family reunion, wedding, or work event.

These challenges resolve by August, just in time for the final pair of eclipses in 2026: a Solar Eclipse on August 12 brings new beginnings in relationships. You may meet someone new, begin a business partnership, or commit to a budding connection. A Lunar Eclipse on August 28 sees you investing in something valuable within a relationship, such as capital toward a start-up or a domestic merger.

Wanderlust follows as we enter the fall season: you may go on a honeymoon, return to academia, or focus on career growth in preparation for the final quarter of the year. Your attention will shift toward professional matters, whether launching a business, pursuing a promotion, or updating your professional image.

That said, Venus and Mercury retrograde in October may bring delays and assessments to work and professional decisions. You may be undergoing a performance evaluation with an employer that could lead to a salary increase, or identifying a career coach worthy of your financial commitment. This could also be interpreted as a work relationship that turns romantic or a business partnership under consideration.

Mercury retrograde complicates timing and opportunities while the Sun shines a spotlight on your legacy and public image. Thankfully, Venus and Mercury station direct (i.e., move forward) on November 14, resolving delays and challenges. Professional matters stabilize by year-end, though fall may feel suspenseful.

By December, networking for both business and pleasure become favorable, bringing lighter days while lifting the density of the past few weeks. Attendance to holiday events and other social gatherings, once again, reinforce the reminder that you are not alone. Even amid the transitions you’re navigating this year (and beyond) the Universe continues to conspire on your behalf, sending helpers and allies your way.

We are officially on the other side of eclipse season. You made it! How do you feel (comment below)? Not gonna lie, this energy was A LOT for me personally, and we’re still not in the clear. The full moon continues to wane as eclipse hangovers linger. What’s more, events from an eclipse can continue to unfold for up to three-to-six months – new chapters are now underway. Life will begin to settle as we enter the month of September and move through your forecast week. Plus, it’s Virgo season, which may actually prove to be a welcomed cosmic shift after an intense planetary line-up. For you Aquarius, getting your affairs in order might help you get your bearings. Whether working with an estate planner, finding a new therapist, considering ways to clean-up debt or finally having a much-needed heart-to-heart with someone you love, such matters will set you straight if you’ve been avoidant, and a little discomfort and vulnerability could bring reprieve. Of course, you don’t need to bare all; you also don’t need to keep it all in. One step at a time; let your mantra be to “chop wood and carry water” as you find your way back to a regular groove.

We are officially on the other side of eclipse season. You made it! How do you feel (comment below)? Not gonna lie, this energy was A LOT for me personally, and we’re still not in the clear. The full moon continues to wane as eclipse hangovers linger. What’s more, events from an eclipse can continue to unfold for up to three-to-six months – new chapters are now underway. Life will begin to settle as we enter the month of September and move through your forecast week. Plus, it’s Virgo season, which may actually prove to be a welcomed cosmic shift after an intense planetary line-up. For you Pisces, some of your closest connections may help you get your bearings. Whether focusing on someone you love, collaborating on a major project, or allowing a new partnership to bud (business or personal), intentional time spent with the significant others in your life (i.e., close friend, spouse/romantic link, business partner, family member, etc.) could help to clear your mind and bring reprieve. Of course, boundaries are still important, Fish. Being free doesn’t necessarily mean that you’re available for your loved ones whenever they need; balance between “self” and “other” will be important. Don’t feel obligated, just let your mantra be to “chop wood and carry water” as you find your way back to a regular groove.

HAPPY NEW YEAR, PISCES! Your full length horoscope for 2026 is below - a labor of love! If your reading for the new year resonates, please share. And if you're really inspired, buy me a coffee or donate to one of my favorite causes. Cheers to you!

PISCES/PISCES RISING 2026:

Life has been rather serious for you over the past few years, Pisces. For a while, it may have felt as if you were in a daze—existing without any clear direction for your life. Gone are the days of going through the motions. Hard truths and reality checks delivered a Masterclass that has shaped who you are right now.

That doesn’t mean you’ve become cold and somber. You’ve simply sobered up – you’ve grown wise and mature. You’re less tolerant of the ways in which you've been underliving, putting more effort toward living with purpose and intention.

Pluto in Aquarius is working on your internal landscape, transforming you on the inside. This planet seeks to remove inner angst, buried demons, and fears tucked away, deep within your subconscious so that you no longer hide from a world that needs you and your gifts.

Saturn and Neptune in Aries are insisting that you reclaim your worth, so that you no longer underestimate your value and contributions, while Uranus in Gemini brings change on the home and family fronts, helping you plant roots that support the new versions of you emerging.

Slowly but surely, you’re getting a handle on yourself, feeling more self-assured and confident. Growth looks good on you, and it will continue throughout all of 2026.

You begin the year socially engaged. Time spent with friends, attending conferences, and other special occasions will keep your calendar full. A traveling caravan of planets—Mars, Venus, Mercury, and the Sun—brings attention to the groups and networks with which you are affiliated. You seem to be interfacing with more people for both business and pleasure, and this may lead to a few chance encounters that further support your evolution.

Then, you’ll quickly begin to run out of steam. That same traveling caravan joins Pluto, motivating a shift into lower gear—one that sees you pausing for reflection. You may feel the need to withdraw, desiring solitude and escapism. This coincides with the first eclipse season of the year.

A Solar Eclipse on February 17 brings a new beginning for you behind the scenes. It’s as if a seed is being planted deep within, meant to grow and bring new insights and awareness. The only way for this seed to gestate is through rest, so be sure to lean into this quieter, sleepier period. Two weeks later, a Lunar Eclipse on March 3 wraps something up on the relationship front. You may be ending an association or making a final decision to commit.

Mercury will retrograde through your sign between these eclipses throughout the month of March, bringing back-and-forth energy around an important decision (retrograde planets create the optical illusion of moving backward—a symbolic invitation to retrace our steps.)

An internal dialogue thus unfolds as you consider important connections and how they impact your life. You’ll be deep in contemplation, with clarity restored as spring arrives. At that point, you’ll be focused on what—and who—is truly of value to you. The eclipses and retrograde cycle may remind you of your innate worth, and of who is worthy of your love, time, and investment.

Financial transactions, short trips, new learning, and domestic matters fill the remaining spring months—especially if you’re relocating, negotiating a salary, or entering a new classroom setting. Jupiter in Cancer also inspires childlike play throughout the first half of the year, offering a reprieve from heavier themes.

Once summer arrives, you may find yourself in the throes of a new love affair—or at the very least, attending festivals and launching creative endeavors. Children are highlighted as well, and news of a pregnancy is another possible interpretation.

That said, Mercury retrogrades once more throughout most of July. Date nights may need to be postponed, summer camp could be canceled, or a creative launch may be pushed back. The rule-of-thumb with Mercury retrograde is to keep living your life, without forcing or manipulating outcomes. The more flexible you remain, the better.

Retrograde hiccups begin to resolve as August approaches, thanks to Jupiter’s ingress into Leo. You may find yourself taking on more responsibilities—projects at work, caregiving duties, pet adoption, and everything in between.

Jupiter’s influence is positive, bringing joy through growth in your daily affairs, especially if merging lives with someone or starting a new job. Still, Jupiter can also be excessive, so be mindful not to take on too much at once.

This period coincides with the final eclipse season of the year: a Solar Eclipse on August 12 brings a fresh start to your day-to-day, supporting meaningful lifestyle changes under Jupiter’s influence. A new role at work—or even becoming a new parent—are possible manifestations.

Meanwhile, a Lunar Eclipse on August 28 falls in your sign, dear Fish. A personal chapter comes to an end in preparation for what is set to begin. Whether you’re completing a long period of self-development or making a decisive change, these eclipses mark a pivotal shift in 2026.

Late summer into fall places emphasis on your relationships with significant others—close friends, romantic partners, family members, or business allies—as new commitments and agreements are forged. Marriage or a joint business venture may be in the works, and growing investments feature prominently.

The fall months also bring wanderlust! After a full year of heavy lifting, you may feel the urge to escape and explore. Travel abroad is likely; you may decide to enroll in coursework or pursue a certification.

In fact, such aspirational goals will begin to emerge toward the end of the year, especially when it comes to new career opportunities. But October brings delays as Venus and Mercury retrograde. Venus retrograde is notorious for prompting relationship and financial reassessments, while Mercury compounds matters with miscommunication and logistical hiccups.

This may look like academic edits if working with faculty members on a research project, delays with grant funding or scholarships, or even hiccups involving a destination-wedding.

Thankfully, both Mercury and Venus station direct (i.e., begin to move forward) on November 14, restoring forward momentum and resolution. It may not be until the very end of the year that events fully stabilize, but at least a shift will be felt.

The fall months may feel suspenseful, but the payoff arrives in December. Professional advancement is likely, and opportunities previously stalled can finally move forward. The challenges will have been worth it, as your vocational path and legacy build.

Consider this end-of-year period another battle won—one that reflects how far you’ve come as you continue to move with intention and claim your life’s destiny.
