2026 places you at a threshold crossing of significance. You are at the end of a major chapter of your life and at the start of the next 36-year run. When you look back, you will have a fuller understanding of this threshold crossing -and the bigger picture karmic undertaking that dominated the better portion of your life.

January opens with Mercury entering Capricorn, Chiron ending retrograde and a super full moon in Cancer raising emotional tides on January 3. (It is the fourth super full moon in a row.) This transit is a good time to prioritize self care. Take a moment to replenish before you go at it again.

This super full moon precedes a rare and potent triple conjunction of Venus, Mars, and the Sun in Capricorn. Although Mars and Venus meet every two years, it is rare that they start their two-year cycle in such close proximity to the sun. (Jan 7: Cazimi -in the heart of the sun). The sun infuses this relating and manifesting cycle with amped up creative potential. You can feel a sense of the time has come/the time is ripe.  Whether you are at an ending or wind down, or at the start of charting a new course, a sense of the momentousness accompanies this new cycle.  The creative scope of this triple Venus, Sun, Mars alignment gains even more juice from an opposition to Jupiter retrograde in Cancer. Jupiter in Cancer increases/enlarges matters to do with self care, personal growth, safety, security, home, family, and your future prospects. Progressively (over the next month and next several), this triple conjunction will clarify and crystalize your plans and goals for the future. January 4 to 10 takes you over the threshold of yesterday and tomorrow. Mercury in Capricorn, a late comer to the alignment, can change the game plan – regarding your career, a relationship with a specific individual or specific circumstance.

The triple alignment of Venus, Mars, and the sun in Capricorn are at optimal timing between January 6 and 10 for setting wheels in motion. Start it or start the process of moving past it. You can find yourself occupied with a major career goal, parenting and parenting responsibilities, or personal priorities (downsizing, restructuring, health or material improvement, reputation building, retirement planning, etc.). Set your intention, put ambition to work. Today’s effort sets up tomorrow’s reward. Aim to get it under better control, to make the best use of time and resources, and to finish off what needs to be completed. Aim for quality over quantity in all facets of life. This triple conjunction is triggered all month. Watch the following dates in January for opportunity and mobilization: January 6, 7, 9, 10, 14, 15, 17- 19, 21 -23, 27, 29.

January to mid May incorporates three planets on sign changes (including the Saturn/Neptune global reset transit on Feb 20), two eclipses (Solar Eclipse Feb 17, Lunar Eclipse Mar 3), and one Mercury retrograde cycle (Feb 25 to March 20). Expect January through mid May to be full to the brim. Courage and your fullest attention/presence is required. Seize the moment, stay true to what is in your highest and best interests, do not sacrifice your integrity, look forward, don’t look back. Eliminate what no longer serves. There is no need to hold on to less when you know you deserve more. What is instigated in this first half of 2026 can set you onto a harvesting and reward track in the second half of the year.

If you are born on or near Mar 20 to April 5, you will feel the fullest impact of Saturn’s tour through Aries. If you are born on or near March 20 to 25, you will feel the triggers of Neptune and the rest of the planets freshly onto their individual sign changes. If you are born April 12 to 19, Chiron in Aries serves as your main prompt. Chiron encourages the maverick in you to come forward. No matter which planet is the prime one, know that destiny has a plan mapped out and signed you up for it.
When you look back on 2026, you are likely to see that it was an inception year of significance.

At the end of April, Uranus begins a 7-year transit through Gemini. We had a short preview of this transit in 2025. Over the coming years, Uranus in Gemini will accelerate significant lifestyle change for all of us. You can feel this planetary advance as a fresh air transit. Got a book to write? Something to say? Looking to increase your client base or to add to your repertoire? Under this transit you can look forward to feeling intellectually, socially, and creatively refreshed, to stay physically active and on the go, to meet up with new prospects for making your way in the world, and also to meet plenty of new people along the way. The Uranus in Gemini years can also increase your attention/involvement with a sibling, friend,or  group. A special someone could enter or exit your life.

At the end of June, Jupiter exits Cancer for a one-year tour of Leo. At the end of July, the karmic axis will begin a next 18-month cycle across the Leo/Aquarius axis. This backdrop shift increases the potential ratio for success, satisfaction, and reward. You can find more substantial creative opportunity and breakthrough potential than has been experienced over last past 18-month karmic axis transit.

January can provide a more definitive, clearer picture of the shape of things to come. January 6 to 10, a rare and potent triple conjunction of Venus, Mars, and the sun in Capricorn sets an optimum backdrop for embarking on a new venture, (professional, personal life/relationship, financial, educational). Look to this week to get a result or official word, for a potential to become a reality. A time has come moment is knocking on your door. The now presents a greater opportunity to build something more substantial -something of greater worth and of lasting value.

Uranus continues in Taurus to April 25. (This ends a seven-year tour of your sign and one of the most active growth periods of your life.) As of Feb 4, Uranus will end its five-month retrograde tour. Never a dull moment, Uranus keeps the action lively. Under this transit, you can feel stressed by the unexpected, or excited by fresh prospects. Uranus acts as a shake up/wake up call, and as a rearrange the gameboard influence. You will feel the strongest effect of this transit if you are born on or near June 19 -21 or are moving through your mid life transits (second half of the 30’s, early 40’s). As of April 25, Uranus will begin its seven-year tour of Gemini. It is a mobilizing and accelerating transit for material gain, self discovery, personal growth, lifestyle reinvention, and for the awakening of new personal skills and resources. Call it education in the school of life. Pluto’s recent advance into Aquarius (as of November 2024) also accelerates your personal reinvention (includes a new career/professional life trajectory, perhaps a new intimate partnership or family expansion too).

March to May can keep you on a full to the brim fast track. Look to Mars in Taurus (May 18 to June 28) to light a fresh fire in you. Incorporating a mix of challenge and opportunity, it will be a time for action, for setting wheels in motion. The solar eclipse on February 17 can see you and/or your circumstances turn a critical corner. It could be the start of the breakthrough you have been striving for. On January 26, Neptune enters Aries. On February 13, Saturn begins a 2.5 year transit through Aries. On February 20, Saturn and Neptune officially begin a next history shaping chapter. Primarily for you, this planetary pairing is one that operates as a background influence or one that exposes you to the action in the contemporary world at large. On a separate note, Saturn in Aries works as a selective trigger point for karmic developments. (Saturn operates as a timing element regarding the animation of the karmic track.) Watch for this mining influence to cut to the chase on brewing potentials that hold a more dynamic life force, and to discard potentials that do not hold enough merit to survive for the long term.

At the end of June, Jupiter begins a one-year tour of Leo. At the end of July, the karmic axis shift into Leo/Aquarius. Both transits put added emphasis on your personal life wellbeing (home and family) and on making the most of what you have to work with. For some, these transits can set a backdrop for a new parental role, for home ownership, business ownership, or the start of a new professional track. October/November are recalibration months. Venus retrograde, October 3 to November 14, and Mercury retrograde, October 24 to November 13, set up a potent time of heightened karmic recall/re-meet/replay. These transits set a backdrop for a strategic powerplay. It is also a time when trust issues are raised, when its time to call a spade by its name. (Note, these transits can heighten fertility. They also bring survival, end of life concerns, and money matters to the fore, (i.e. taxes, debt, joint finances, a will, an estate matter, an inheritance.)

The month of January holds plenty of lucrative potential. January 6 to 10, can see that potential start to take shape in some real and defined way. A rare and potent triple conjunction of Venus, Mars and the sun set a time is right backdrop for new initiatives and ambitions, for contracts (karmic or actual), and for getting it under better control. January 14 – 19 and 21 -23 are also optimizing activation dates. Vesta (January 12 – March 11) and Mars (January 23 to March 2) boost fresh prospects (career, lifestyle choices, social life). Both transits set an optimizing backdrop for speculative ventures, creative projects, studies, fresh interests, new conversations/negotiations/plans, new relationship involvements, and relocation.

The solar eclipse on February 17 can place you at the brink of a breakthrough or significant course change. Likely it is something you have been working toward or have become aware of as an inevitable crossroads or next step/phase. Neptune in Aries (starting January 26) and Saturn in Aries (starting Feb 13) meet on February 20 to launch a next 36-year history writing chapter that will encompass many battles and groundbreaking firsts in support of moving past outworn judgement patterns of the mass consciousness,(i.e. the views and values that have allowed for the perpetuation of destructive patterns of society and daily life that are so prevalent today). On the personal note, this Saturn/Neptune new chapter brings hidden potential to rise to the surface of consciousness, offering the potential to write a next chapter of your own story, one that is more aligned with your future potentials rather than the baggage of the past.

2025 (July to November) briefly introduced Uranus in Gemini. As of April 25, Uranus, an awakening, enlightening, and mobilizing influence, will launch a seven-year tour of your sign. From 2026 to 2029, Uranus and Pluto work as a team to support personal and lifestyle reinvention. Under this planetary pairing (trine angle), a risk is not so much a risk as it is a natural/logical next step. This transit sets you up for one of the most exciting, fertile, creative, liberating, and opportune years of your life. This transit can enhance your magnetic attraction, your intuition, and psychic ability. Stay alert for message, premonitions, and instincts to inform you. Trust what you know, sense, and feel.

Mars (June 28 to August 11) and Ceres (May 28 to Aug 12) tour Gemini at roughly the same time. Ceres (seasons of the soul) is a seeding influence. It is also one of karmic recall. Mars (personal will) is the action and activation planet. In combination, Mars, Ceres, and Uranus in Gemini will supply you with ample energy and incentive. New places to go, people to meet, conversations to have, etc. These transits will keep life on the go with one thing after another. In fact, expect the whole year ahead to expose you to more than usual.

(Mid term elections in the USA happen on November 3. Both Venus and Mercury will be on retrograde tours at that time.)

The partial lunar eclipse on August 27, can be a turning point of significance for a key relationship, or for work, education, or health related matters. It can be a time to move, or to move in a new direction; to upgrade or trade in, etc. You will feel the fullest effect of this eclipse if you are born on or near May 24 to 26. If you are born on or near June 6, the lunar eclipse of March 3 could prompt a transition of note. A health or work matter or something unexpected may need to be addressed. Something you may have been working toward could falter or lose steam. What does not come to fruition simply allows for something better to fill the space. Overall, this eclipse sets you on a path toward improvement.

A new chapter of your life is getting underway. Inn the works over this last year or few, this new chapter requires you to show up for yourself in a more self determined and more accountable way. Initially, you may have to work harder to get it under better control, to get the respect or dues you feel you are owed. Know the upfront effort will set you up for substantial later gain. January 6 to 9, an especially potent triple alignment of Venus, Mars, and the sun in Capricorn set a backdrop for achievement, accomplishment, recognition, or results. These transits place you at a significant finalization/ending stage, or at an inception stage of importance (likely both). Either way, the time is right to put courage into action and to aim for higher ground. Be it your career or a professional undertaking, a significant relationship (forged or ended), or a material/financial status – a reality now takes shape in a cementing (written in stone) way. This triple alignment is well used to sign a contract (with another or yourself), or to undertake an official step/move. Venus, Mars, and the sun favour all fresh-start initiatives aimed at getting your life under better control. On another note, this triple alignment can be a preliminary step in forging a new relationship with an authority figure or institution.

On January 26, Neptune enters Aries, to begin a 14-year transit through this sign. On February 13, Saturn begins a 2.5 year tour of Aries. On February 20, the duo will meet and in so doing, they hit a reset button of significance. This date marks the official threshold crossing into a next life chapter. Along with the triple alignment mentioned above, you can find yourself at the start of a next life chapter or at a starting over point of significance. Think back 29 years and you may get a clue to how Saturn was of influence regarding your outer world reality and its dictates (career, goals, responsibilities, and priorities). 2026 is an opportunity for you to get another shot at the goal post, to apply the wisdom and reap the reward that has been built from experience.

Jupiter’s one year tour of Cancer (June 2025 to the end of June 2026) sets you onto a significant growth spurt. To March 10, Jupiter retrograde calls for you to refortify from within, to dig deeper inside yourself, to trust instincts and inner knowing, to test the waters, to feel your way along. This time period encompasses the Saturn/Neptune conjunction (launch) mentioned above, two eclipses (solar eclipse in Aquarius February 17; total lunar eclipse in Pisces, March 3) and Mercury retrograde in Pisces (February 25 to March 20). Both eclipses can hold good promise, perhaps with an unexpected twist, or revision. The solar eclipse of February 17 can accelerate a breakthrough or a sudden switch track. The total lunar eclipse of March 3 can clear up a misunderstanding or an uncertainty; it can necessitate a repair or improvement and/or uncover a solution, a remedy or better option.

Mid March through the end of June can be your full thrust time for making a move or getting a move on. Uranus enters Gemini on April 25, to begin a seven-year tour of this sign. This transit can find you tapping from a wellspring of inner potential and creativity. It can keep you resourceful and launch you into a continuous state of self discovery and learning. In a variety of ways and synchronicities, look to Uranus in Gemini to bring messages from the universe. Watch for your intuitive faculties to grow. This transit can stimulate past life memories and reconnections. Over the years, watch for key people to enter and exit your life. You will know them by a sense of familiarity or déjà vu.

Jupiter enters Leo at the end of June. The karmic axis, an eighteen-month cycle, advances to Leo/Aquarius at the end of July. Both transits set a backdrop for accelerating creative enterprise, and for material and lifestyle reinvention. Both set you up for personal and relationship breakthroughs of significance. They can enhance potentials of all kinds, including matters of heart and wallet.

The month of January is well used to set yourself to task on New Year’s resolutions or promises you made to yourself. January 6 to 12 is an excellent time to start on health and wellness routines, to start a new job, project, training program, etc. The potent triple conjunction of Venus, Mars, and the sun in Capricorn sets a new reality into play. The Capricorn planets (including Mercury) support you to get better organized, to focus effort and investment to where it can benefit you the most, to stay realistic about what is doable and manageable and what is not. The whole month ahead sets a productive backdrop for making the most of time and fresh opportunity. It is as though the month has an agenda already planned out and you are meant to come along for the ride.

As of January 23, Mars leaves Capricorn for a six-week tour of Aquarius (to March 2). Mars in Aquarius dials up the social/political action. Watch the money markets and weather patterns too. Mars will stimulate new interests, activities, prospects, conversations, challenges, and opportunities. New people to meet, new involvements, complications, competition, or a new relationship status, the spotlight attention is on relationships at all levels, i.e.: social, professional, friends, one on one. The main objective of this Mars acceleration transit is to prompt you to reinvent the way you relate to the world around you. More specifically, Mars in Aquarius prompts you to reinvent the way you show up for yourself when in relationship.

Neptune enters Aries on January 26. (The transit will last 14 years). Saturn enters Aries on February 13. (Saturn spends 2.5 years on tour through a sign). For most of 2025, Saturn and Neptune were travelling very closely together. On February 20, 2026, Saturn and Neptune will form a conjunction and move into a new phase relationship. In so doing, they begin a next 36-year chapter of our collective history. Whether subtle or striking, you may recognize the past 36 years as marking a significant chapter of your personal life. Having said that, perhaps the Saturn transit on its own is more obvious to you. Saturn takes 29.5 years to make one complete rotation of your chart. Think back to 1996 – 1999. That was the last time Saturn was in transit through Aries. Over the next couple of years, Saturn, the reality taskmaster and timekeeper, will visit the same part of your chart. Over the next couple of years, Saturn in Aries will continue to work on the construction of a new a new format/new road map for your future. Over this time, you will come to establish your place in the world in a new way, whether that is a career path or a personal one.

A solar eclipse in Aquarius happens on February 17, just days before the Saturn/Neptune conjunction. This eclipse acts as a turning point catalyst. It may produce a sudden twist of fate. It can set you onto a shift of gears or next course. Most eclipses incorporate an element of the unexpected. (In addition to heightened social and political action, an eclipse in Aquarius can also produce notable weather or geo-physical activity). You can feel the strongest impact of this eclipse if you are born on or near Aug 21 -23, or if the solar eclipse makes a significant contact to your personal planets.

Just after the Saturn/Neptune conjunction of February 20 and before the lunar eclipse in Virgo on March 3 (an uncovering, potential corrective, or problem-solving eclipse), Mercury begins a retrograde cycle. Despite the forward thrust of the various transits mentioned above, Mercury retrograde in Pisces (February 25 to March 20) is a time to pull back, to allow for matters to play out a little further before you hit the race ahead. Mercury retrograde in Pisces can produce added uncertainty, vulnerability, or loss. Also, it can expose or uncover something more. (This transit can also weaken the immune system. Make sure to protect yourself during this cycle. It is likely that a flu or some such could catch up with you.)

As of April 26, Uranus begins a seven-year transit in Gemini. Watch the month or so that follows for a significant breakthrough, shakeup, or fast track on the world stage or in your individual life. Under Pluto in Aquarius and this Uranus transit, the coming years will radically and swiftly change how we communicate and learn from one another. We are at the start of a stand-out period regarding the acceleration of our collective and individual life experiential track. When you look back a few years from now, you will recognize what an exceptional time you have/are living through. There is no better time than right now to get started. 2026 to 2029 are an optimal time to actively pursue personal and lifestyle reinvention.

The second half of the year can set you/your life into a much fuller swing. As of the end of June, Jupiter begins a one-year tour of Leo. As of the end of July, the karmic axis begins an 18-month transit through the Leo/Aquarius sign axis. Both transits increase your opportunity and growth potential. The month of August holds good promise (for professional and/or material success, creative endeavours/recognition, a special event, travel, matters of heart, for enjoying it to the fullest). Someone special could “make your day.” The solar eclipse in Leo on August 12 could place you at the start of a significant new personal life chapter, especially so if your birthday falls on or near the eclipse. Incorporating the last Mercury retrograde of the year (late Oct to mid November), Mars transits Leo from the end of September through the end of November. This will be an important time of year to eliminate what is not making the grade; to make adjustments or refinements as is desired or required before you move to the next stretch of the track. This time also encompass the USA mid-term election. 2027 could be a peak year for manifesting and success, especially so if you are born in the second half of Leo (Aug 9 to 23).

The month of January can shape up quite nicely for you. The triple alignment of Venus, Mars, and the sun in Capricorn (a special alignment) sets a fortunate (excellent timing) backdrop for ambition, endeavour, and matters of heart. Venus, Mars, and the sun assist you to gain good control and to create success for yourself, in both small and significant ways. Professionally or personally, you can be singled out, gain recognition, or reward. This triple alignment could also mark a special event or anniversary. (That event or anniversary could be something you have earned to date, or something from today that you will later come to realize was the inception moment.) The triple conjunction is operating at peak between January 6 and 11. (It extends for the entire month and holds potency over the next one year and two years). The second half of January also sets a backdrop of opportunity, mobilization, and acceleration (January 14 – 19, 21-23, 25 to 29). Venus enters Aquarius January 17. Mars enters Aquarius on January 23. Expect to be moving along a continuous activation track. Stay alert and put the moment to its best use.

Neptune begins a 14-year transit through Aries on January 26. This transit sets collective trends. Saturn (shapes personal life reality, professional life, and outer world functioning- including priorities, pressures, and limits) begins a 2.5 year transit through Aries on February 13. Working along a dissolving of the past and setting potentials on brew, both Neptune and Saturn were tight travelling partners in 2025. Both were focused on completing their joint assignment -to dissolve the barriers and residues of the past that are impeding new growth/that which has been on brew and is now ready to surface into full manifestation. On February, Saturn/Neptune reach the end of a 36-year bigger picture (collective) manifesting chapter to begin a next 36-year cycle. If you are around 36 years of age, you were born at the last conjunction which suggests coming into this life with a karmic intention setting of significance – that of a review of a past life narrative that your soul is seeking to transcend/to move beyond. (This statement also hold true if you have children around that age, or you can identify another personal life circumstance that has shaped your life experience). For some, this 36-year cycle can pertain to a career cycle.

This Saturn/Neptune cycle programs a next chapter of your soul’s development. Several resources will be utilized for this growth mandate. It can be based upon a new material/financial status such as starting a new career or gaining new independence (starting your adult life, a newly single status, or starting over after material loss or tragedy, bereavement, a health crisis or addiction). Also, whether it exists now or is destined for some future point, this rebirth cycle can see you cover/confront new terrain regarding an intimate or key relationship. It will also take you through a deeper examination regarding your relationship to yourself, specifically on matters of trusting yourself, your personal truth, and making a commitment to showing up for yourself where it matters most.

The karmic axis (lunar north & south nodes) continues in Virgo/Pisces to the end of July. This (background) influence continues an agenda to eliminate what is no longer purposeful and useful. At the same time, it builds from the underground potential.

January through May keeps the action dialed up. A solar eclipse happens on February 17, just a few days prior to the Saturn/Neptune reset. The solar eclipse is followed by a total lunar eclipse in Virgo on March 3 and Mercury retrograde in Pisces (February 25 to March 20). Expect to address more than average. There is more prospect and potential than may be obvious. The lunar eclipse on March 3 can fill in more of the blanks. It exposes what is viable and real, and what is not. What disintegrates or is lost simply paves the way for something better/more appropriate and worthwhile to fill the space.

Uranus begins a seven-year tour of Gemini on April 25. This transit will reshape how you view the world around you and how you navigate your way through it. You’ll adapt and adopt (think, talk, and connect) in ways you may not fully envision for yourself now. When you look back on these seven years, you might hear yourself say “look at how that all added up to where I am now.”

Jupiter’s one year tour through Leo, starting at the end of June, and the karmic axis on a sign switch at the end of July (Leo/Aquarius) sets the second half of the year on track to improve wealth and well being (body, mind, spirit, and bank account). Under both transits, there is a potential for a new job, health improvement, a change of schedule, the development of better coping skills, or a new approach to your day to day (i.e. working smarter, not harder). Both transits can set you on course to feel happier, more successful, and more fulfilled.

You can and you will get it under better control. A triple alignment of Venus, Mars, and the sun in Capricorn is at peak between January 4 and 11. This triple alignment, and the Saturn/Neptune conjunction of February 20 set the clock on the next personal life chapter (and a global one). You may look back on this year and say something to the effect of: “that was the year my life really began” (or “the year it ended,” or “the year I put an end to it”). These transit set into action on the dates mentioned above but of course, circumstances will unfold over a length of time. January through May/June represents the first wave of action. July through October, a next phase, and October through the first quarter of 2027 as the third segment.

The Saturn/Neptune conjunction in Aries on February 20 sets the outer world reality at the start of a next history writing chapter. This new reality has been in the works for the last couple of years, but now it will project its image through a stronger, perhaps starker, filter. As a collective, there will be many battles to face before we fully cross the intersection marked “the past is no longer an option.” This may also be so for your private life journey, especially when it comes to the way you show up for yourself in relationship to the world around you, and how you interface with specific people. Of course, the most important battle to face is the one with yourself. Inward change will lead to calling forth in a more well aligned and fruitful way. Don’t question yourself. Of course you have what it takes. You’ll prove it to yourself in a myriad of ways. You could discover a much feistier, more driven side of yourself is on display more often.

Saturn/Neptune can also trigger fresh inspiration. You could feel this planetary pairing as a coming alive influence, as fresh spiritual or creative fuel. A relationship, career path, or lifestyle that starts under Saturn/Neptune conjunction will present many new considerations and options. You will be introduced to a side of yourself that you may not be fully acquainted with as of yet. When you find yourself straddling past and future, you can rely on Saturn/Neptune and the rest of the planets on sign changes to propel you onto a fresh and new track. By this juncture along reality’s timeline, the future will hold much more pull for you than the past.

On April 25, Uranus begins a 7-year transit of Gemini. Along with Pluto on tour in Aquarius, this sign advance moves Uranus into one of the best, most opportune angles of your chart. Through 2029, Pluto in Aquarius and Uranus in Gemini are in collaboration to lay an abundance of opportunity in the pathway taking you into your future. These years keep synchronicity operating at peak. Reinvention is less of a risk than it is a natural next step. New prospects, new places to go, new people to meet, new things to learn and share, the new you – It is all there for you to embrace.

Jupiter’s one year tour through Leo (starting at the end of June) and the karmic axis shift to Leo/Aquarius in late July can set you onto a successful run or reward cycle. It also supports and accelerates the reinvention process that is already underway.

Use January to work on your professional and personal game plan. January 4 to 11 is an optimal week for a fresh start, for the launch of a new project, etc. Drawing added potency from the actualizing power of the sun, Venus and Mars start a new two year relating and manifesting cycle. There is enormous creative potential in this rare triple conjunction which also draws from Jupiter in Cancer (increases both opportunity and need). If you are a person who makes new year’s resolutions, uses affirmations, or does intention setting, this is the week to set it into motion (especially January 6, 7, 9, 10). Keep up that conscious practice/visualization for the whole month.
Here are a few more January dates to watch and to put to maximum use: January 14 – 17, 19 – 23, 26 – 29.

On January 26, Neptune begins a 14-year transit of Aries. On February 13, Saturn begins its 2.5 year transit through Aries. This duo travelled in very close proximity for 2025 but never actually met up. On February 20, Saturn will finally surpass Neptune and move into a new phase relationship. This ends the past 36 years and launches the next 36-year life cycle. It also marks a global reset for the building of social structures that define contemporary reality and the world at large. We may or may not see an obvious reflection of something new in world happenings/the political fronts, but it is most definitely in the works and will be coming into greater visibility soon enough. On the personal front, Saturn/Neptune can launch a new daily reality or regime – pertaining to work, health, public service, volunteer activities, mentoring, or a spiritual/devotional practice. Saturn will work to build the foundation over the next couple of years, while Neptune works on the bigger picture level (envisioning, reframing of ideals and beliefs, heeding a higher calling, heightened attunement/receptivity, and soul growth).

February 17 delivers a solar eclipse in Aquarius. March 3 delivers a total lunar eclipse in Virgo. Mercury takes a retrograde tour in Pisces from February 25 to March 20. All three add extra turbo to the Saturn/Neptune push-button reset. While eclipses function as acceleration catalysts, Mercury retrograde (to March 20) can put things on a short review, delay, or sidetrack. It is a time to give yourself/it more time to observe and to feel. More will come into your awareness in due course. Circumstances and potentials continue along fluid track through March and into the beginning of April. Venus in Pisces (Feb 10 to March 6) and Mars in Pisces (March 2 to April 9) are fortuitous placements for your sign. Mercury transits Pisces from February 6 to April 14. All three inner planets (even the Mercury retrograde cycle) can keep you in a good creative flow. They set a good backdrop for increasing your professional profile, for matters of heart, and for attracting assistance from the universe. If you have been suffering through difficult circumstance, these Pisces influences can provide added ease as you navigate your way through your days (that expression – let go and let God – comes to mind). (On a completely different note, it can be a good time to take a vacation, or simply to pause and replenish.)

On April 25, Uranus begins a seven-year tour of Gemini. This transit sets a backdrop for branching e Perhaps you will come to a new co-parenting relationship, or perhaps you will enter into a new professional or personal partnership or collaboration up (start a business venture, share the rent, the expense, the vehicle, etc.). New interests, attractions, investment options, and lifestyle change is within scope for this Uranus transit. For some, it could be time to explore a new way of being in an intimate relationship (open ended, sexual exploration, etc.)

For the first half of the year, aim to learn, source, and develop as much as you can. The second half of the year will be the time to shift gears again and to move the dial further along. Venus retrograde (October 3 to November 14) and the last Mercury retrograde of the year (October 24 to November 13) increase the karmic potency of the moment. They mark a finalization period for recalibrating and for addressing a specific item or two (relationship or circumstance) before you can fully set foot on tomorrow’s doorstep. (I will speak more on Venus retrograde later in the year).

January kicks off with a rare and especially potent triple alignment of Venus, Mars, and the sun in Capricorn. Mercury is also travelling close by in Capricorn. Every two years, Venus, and Mars initiate a new relating and manifesting cycle, but it is rare for this conjunction to happen in such close proximity to the sun. Mars and the sun renew their intention on a two-year cycle, while Venus and the sun move along an 18-month cycle. (Mars represents personal will and desire, Venus correlates to what holds value, and to your relationship to yourself, and therefore to others.)

A reality is setting into play. It has been in development for the past couple of months (in actuality, for a longer period) and will continue to take shape/develop the framework through the first quarter of 2026. All this Capricorn concentration sets the priority on making it real -in other words, getting it under better control, on “owning it,” and on cementing that which has the potential to hold lasting value. It is a time to be ambitious but also realistic, and to undertake productive measures that will lead to the desired (and necessary) results. Streamlining, belt tightening, and restructuring can be required. You can feel put to the test, but substantial reward awaits your diligence, perseverance, and effort. It is both a time of harvesting, culmination, and endings, and also of planting potent new seeds. A sense of timing (right time; a karmic pull) accompanies this triple alignment, which is at an instigating peak from January 3 onward. Watch the following January action/trigger dates: January 6, 7, 9, 10, 14, 15, 17,19 – 23, 26, 27, 29.

On January 26, Neptune begins a 14-year transit through Aries. This is a tuning fork transit that sparks the sentiments, ideals, beliefs, and creative process of mass consciousness. On February 13, Saturn begins a 2.5 year transit through Aries. Think back to 1996 – 1999. What was the building pressure or priority for you then? Through April of 2028, Saturn (the reality shaping planet) will revisit the same part of your chart. On February 20, Saturn will conjoin Neptune. This conjunction (a full circle meeting) ends a 36-year collective manifesting and growth cycle and begins a next history writing chapter (a global reset influence). Re both your personal life and collective Saturn/Neptune are also working on a karmic development track – as are the Venus/Mars/sun transit mentioned above. Suffice to say, this is no ordinary moment along your soul’s evolutionary timeline.

A solar eclipse in Aquarius happens on February 17 (just three days before the Saturn/Neptune conjunction of Feb 20). A total lunar eclipse in Virgo follows on March 3. And on top of all that, Mercury in Pisces tours retrograde from February 25 to March 20. Watch for the two eclipses to accelerate a shift of significance. The Aquarius eclipse can trigger something sudden, perhaps unexpected, regarding the social, political, or economic climate. (It is likely that whatever happens was already on brew). Information can come to light that sparks a change of course. The total lunar eclipse on March 3 can put the attention matters to do with health, healing, repair, improvement, employment issues, correction mandates, and on finding more workable solutions. Can we do better as a collective? Yes, of course we can. These eclipses will only be relevant to your personal life circumstances if they form dynamic aspects to your natal chart. Otherwise, you will witness their influence as a general, indirect, or outer world influence.

Uranus begins a seven-year transit of Gemini on April 25. Over the year ahead, you will feel this transit in a more dynamic/direct way if you are born on or near Dec 23 to 27. If you are later born in the sign, Uranus will take more time to kick up to full thrust. Having said that, from now though 2029, Uranus in Gemini maintains an optimizing angle (trine) with Pluto in Aquarius. This planetary pairing makes for great synchronicity and opportunity. It’s fresh, it’s interesting, and it has your name all over it. Look to Uranus to keep you well stimulated with new ideas and offerings to entertain your audience. Also look to this transit to enrich/enliven your social life/social status or public life, and to set an optimal backdrop for career reinvention.

By the end of June, Jupiter, your ruler, begins a one-year transit of Leo. By the end of July, the karmic axis shifts into Leo/Aquarius (launches an 18-month cycle). Both transits set a fortuitous backdrop for creative enterprise and matters of heart. The potential of these transits can set you on an abundance track or winning streak. They can set a backdrop for a major success and put you back on top of the world again.

January takes you over a time threshold of significance. You can reach a milestone, such as an anniversary of note, or retirement. A momentous starting gate could involve gaining a degree, professional recognition, or an official status). A rare and potent triple alignment of Venus, Mars, and the sun in Capricorn now launches a significant next life chapter. It is one that triggers your ambition to build it better – whether that pertains to your career/professional undertakings, or whether the desire for attainment, achievement and reward is more about the quality of how you live your life out (your personal, private/internalized, and emotional goals). This triple alignment is at peak from the super full moon on January 3 to January 11, but the potency period of this triple alignment (inception trigger) lasts through March. You may come to look back on this year as a major turning point of your life, especially so if your birthday falls during the second week of the month (especially January 6, 7, 9, or 10). (Other key dates of the month to watch: January 14, 15, 17- 23, 26 to 29)

All three personal planets are on tour through Capricorn. Mars continues in Capricorn to January 23. Venus continues in Capricorn to February 10. Mercury transits Capricorn from January 1 to 20. Operating at increased potency, all three keep you goal driven and focused on getting it under better control. You know you have something substantial to work toward and that it is deserving of good effort put forward. (Today’s effort builds tomorrow’s reward – that’s the Capricorn motto.) This triple alignment marks an auspicious time to start a new business or professional track, or to reformat your personal life.

On January 26, Neptune begins a 14-year transit of Aries. On Feb 13, Saturn begins a 2.5 year tour of Aries. The duo have been at work over this past year to dissolve the blocks, doubt, uncertainty, and the residues of the past that have been standing in the way of your new life chapter. On February 20, Saturn and Neptune will meet by conjunction for the first time in 36 years. This conjunction marks the official end of a chapter of your life, and the beginning of a next chapter. This Saturn/Neptune transit pertains to the building track of the bigger picture collective reality (the construction of the collective principles, values, and mind-set) as well as your own (bigger picture) personal life trajectory. This next Saturn/Neptune chapter will expose you to a whole new set of potentials for you to discover and explore; a whole new set of values and ideals to aspire toward.

On a “closer to home track,” Saturn/Neptune places you at the start of a whole new personal life experience. It is a time for starting over or starting fresh, for going independent or for going solo (re private life/family life, or a business or professional track.) Endings and beginnings are intertwined.

The Saturn/Neptune conjunction gains a boost from eclipse season. February 17 delivers a solar eclipse in Aquarius (a turning point/shift track of significance). March 3 delivers a total lunar eclipse in Virgo (emphasis on correction, improvement, repairs, healing, employment matters, and more workable solutions). All eclipses have unique qualities, but they also have two common qualities. They are a signature for the unexpected and they function as acceleration catalysts.

In transit through Pisces, Mercury retrograde is also in the mix from February 25 to March 20. Stay receptive, hopeful, open-minded and open-hearted, but also (most importantly) – allow more time for potentials to prove their viability. There is an element of the unknown and it needs to be factored into the equation. Don’t guess, don’t go on blind faith. On another note, guard your health. Under this Mercury retrograde transit, you can be more susceptible to anything and everything that is in circulation.

On April 26, Uranus begins a seven-year transit of Gemini. This transit will mobilize you in a notable new way (mind/body: your work, your health, your attitude, interests, and conversations). Under this transit you could choose a new line of work or adopt a new way of working. Same goes for health regimes, study practices, etc. You may commute more or experience more flow through of people entering your life for short periods. This is a “phone keeps ringing” transit. It keeps the action lively on a day-to-day basis, especially so if your work involves clients, students, sales, or work with the public. On another note, it is to your advantage to stay up to speed on the latest market and health trends.

At the end of June, Jupiter enters Leo. At the end of July, the karmic axis begins an 18-month tour of Leo/Aquarius. Both transits assist your personal and lifestyle reinvention. Under these transits, you are likely to feel that the changes you have made earlier in the year have been among your best choices to date. Both transits can bring a boost your financial income/status, your overall well being, and happiness quotient.

So much is on brew for you. You may or may not have a sense of what your future holds, but there is no doubt, you stand on the brink of it now. A rare and potent triple conjunction of Venus, Mars, and the sun reaches peak from the super full moon on January 3 through January 10. It doesn’t stop there. In fact, this triple conjunction will continue to reverberate with greater magnetic (and karmic) potential all the way to the March equinox. Additionally, the triple conjunction draws extra turbo from an opposition to Jupiter in Cancer. Jupiter greatly enhances and mobilizes the karmic potency/draw of the triple conjunction. There is an opportunity to revisit something unfinished or unhealed from the past, to rework it, to break free of old patterns of relating (to it, to them, to yourself), or to transcend the matter altogether (the hurt, the guilt, the loss, the misgivings, etc.). These “time has come” transits can also put the spotlight on a relationship with key someone. It can be a time to say goodbye or hello again (as in a karmic recall of significance).

Venus enters Aquarius on January 17, the Sun on January 19, Mercury on January 20, and Mars on January 23. Immediately following each sign ingress, each planet will meet up with powerhouse planet Pluto (the great transformer). Zero or slow to full-on in a flash. Once cemented or instigated, it is a full log on to a new day dawn. (Can’t dip a toe – have to take a full dive.) What gets off the ground/bursts forth does not waste any time. It will pull all the concrete and the soil up with it. We are likely to see this abrupt shift or dialed up intensity reflected in market trends and in the social/political arena. Watch for this second half of January to keep the action fired up/dialed right up.

On January 26, Neptune begins a 14-year transit through Aries. Covering the same area of your natal chart that it did in 1996 – 1999, On February 13, Saturn begins a 2.5 year transit of Aries. Both planets worked all of 2025 to dismantle or dissolve the block, restriction, or doubt that has impeded the way forward. As of February 20, Saturn/Neptune end and begin a 36-year manifesting chapter. If you are 36 years old, you are now at the completion a karmic re-examination chapter. What have you learned and how will you apply it to the rest of your life? New potentials await your fresh creative input.

February 17 delivers a solar eclipse in Aquarius in dynamic tension to Uranus (ruler of your sign). You will witness this solar eclipse (new moon) at full strength if your birthday coincides with the eclipse or is in proximity to it. Among the range of possibilities: this eclipse can see you turn a corner, shift your focus/attention or priority, see you make a personal breakthrough, or jettison you onto a next phase or track. You could discover something (or someone) that changes a perspective or financial status. It could be something that reveals more value or worth that previously assessed. Something that has sat on the backburner can move to a front position, or that which has been on hold can now animate/move forward.

February 25 to March 20, Mercury tours retrograde in Pisces. March 3 delivers a total lunar eclipse in Virgo. This eclipse can draw attention to something that is flawed, weak, in need of a repair, a healing, or a revision. It could present a better solution or option. Stay open and reception, keep exploring. Don’t guess but do trust your instincts. If you can’t figure it out, wait for the transits to move along, for time to fill in the missing blank and show you the way forward.

On April 25, Uranus begins a 7-year transit through Gemini, a complimentary air sign. Through 2029, Uranus and Pluto are in collaboration. They can gift you with an open-door policy on fresh opportunity – call it a new lease on life. The next few years set a backdrop for personal and lifestyle reinvention where it feels the most natural, where it counts the most. Uranus in Gemini brings you a new awareness – of yourself, your creative process, and of your heart’s dialogue. This transit can see you tap your unique gifts in a career capacity, a business venture, a creative endeavour, or artist track. Together, Uranus and Pluto could prompt you embrace a lifestyle that you might not have imagined for yourself just a short time ago. Powerhouse Pluto and Uranus can also increase your ability to resource from your substantial intuitive/psychic abilities.

At the end of June, Jupiter will begin a one-year tour of Leo. At the end of July, the karmic axis (lunar nodes) will start an 18-month transit through Leo/Aquarius. Both are “bring it to life” transits. To the plus, they can enhance potentials for success, happiness, and singled out attention (from the public or from a special someone). Most importantly, they encourage you to show up for yourself in a bigger format way.

January opens with a full moon in Cancer, the fourth super full moon in a row. A super moon holds more pull-on emotional tides and the subjective lens. Your empathic and intuitive receptors are likely to pick up stronger than usual signals and premonitions. The Cancer archetype puts spotlight attention on self care, personal needs and wellbeing, and your own comfort zone. As such, you can be especially dialed in to the needs of your own body. Also, you will be especially tuned in to subjects and people who have your heart (a dear one, a loved one, a child).

This super full moon kicks off a rare and potent triple conjunction of Venus, Mars, and the Sun in Capricorn. Although Mars and Venus meet every two years, it is rare that they start their two-year cycle in Cazimi to the sun. (Cazimi – In the heart of the sun). The sun infuses this relating and manifesting cycle with significantly amped up creative potential. An opposition to Jupiter in Cancer also increases the potency and scope. This triple conjunction can clarify and crystalize your plans and goals for the future. A new reality and next chapter is now at a seeding stage. You will see it shape up now and through the coming months and year. January 4 to 10 takes you over the threshold of yesterday and tomorrow.

Forming aspects to Jupiter, Mars, the sun, and Venus (in that order) between January 14 and 29, Mercury in Capricorn also contributes to the triple conjunction and the opportunities of the month. Mercury can put the spotlight on a key person and/or key circumstance. The new moon in Capricorn sets an optimal timing backdrop for mining the untapped potential; for goal setting or goal reaching, for career aspirations, or other official undertakings. Under this new moon, things can into fall into place easily and well. Not all is visible in the moment. Time reveals all. Some goals/rewards are on a short reach. Others are on a long-range schedule. While much of the development may be underground or subtle in nature, overall, January should shape up to be productive.

On January 26, Neptune will reach the end of its 14-year transit through Pisces and enter Aries for its next 14-year initiative. You will not “lose” Neptune, (a transit that has amped up your potentials through these many years), you will gain from the sign change. Neptune’s transit through Aries simply stokes more creative steam and creative resource.

On February 13, Saturn will leave Pisces for Aries, to work on its next 2.5 year manifesting priority. Neptune and Saturn spent all of last year travelling in very close proximity. On February 20, Saturn will form a conjunction with Neptune, an aspect that happens only every 36 years. Every 36 year, Saturn/Neptune reset their manifesting agenda to explore of the potentials that have been on brew and that are now ready for their prime time. For the world at large, this 36-year cycle outlines a next history writing chapter regarding the beliefs and conditioning factors that shape and create the reality we build. On a personal note, this next Saturn/Neptune cycle aims to help you to explore more of your hidden wealth potential. You are stronger, braver, and more resilient than you may realize.

In addition to the Neptune/Saturn cycle, there is also Saturn’s individual 29.5 year cycle at work. Think back to what life chapter began for you in 1996-1999. Over the next couple of years, Saturn covers the same ground of your natal chart that it did back then. This Saturn transit places you at a significant threshold crossing, that of shaping a reality framework from which your life circumstances will continue to build. (Every 7 years is another checkpoint in Saturn’s full 29.5 cycle.)

A solar eclipse in Aquarius happens on February 17, (which is just a few days before the Neptune/Saturn reset of February 20). The solar eclipse could spark something unexpected that sparks a course correction or a redirect. You could get a premonition or a heads-up that can put you ahead of the game. March 13 delivers a total lunar eclipse in Virgo (spotlight on work, health, and unfinished matters). The eclipse is accompanied by Mercury retrograde in Pisces (February 25 to March 2). Beyond the typical things that Mercury retrograde produces, this eclipse holds added karmic potency for a do-over with someone or something that holds great value to you.

At the end of April, Uranus begins a 7-year transit through Gemini. We had a short preview of this transit in 2025. Uranus in Gemini will create significant lifestyle change for all. Over the year ahead, you will feel the acceleration effect of this transit, especially so if you born Feb 21 to 26.

At the end of June, Jupiter enters Leo. At the end of July, the karmic axis begins an 18-month transit through the Leo/Aquarius polarity. Both transits put the spotlight on your daily life activities. Jupiter increases the attention on matters to do with health and health living, and improvements of all kinds, including the search for more joy and reward in your everyday life. A better job or better income is in the cards for some.
