Transiting astrology is the ability to read the position of the planets in our Solar System and describe the energies of the time.

We are sitting in the midst of tidal waves of em-ocean (emotion), invisible gravitational forces and cosmically powerful electro-energy that fill our atmosphere and find their way into our electrically-sensitive bodies and consciousness. Our Solar System is as alive as we are, and with astrology we can read both.

Weekly Horoscopes for Monday 27th April 26

Posted on 27th April, 2026

 

 

Aries

You are currently imbued with all manner of visiting stellar energies that boost your potential and introduce you to a range of talents and personal responses. Some welcome, some wearisome, but nevertheless good for your spiritual growth. Maybe you feel you hardly know yourself. This week, you can help the process by focussing on the ways in which you allow your personal strength to be eroded or protected.

 

Taurus

The astrology internet will tell you there is a Full Moon involving Scorpio and Taurus later this week. Together these two represent the ‘feeling’ sensations - the touch/feeling of the skin and senses in Taurus and the emotional feelings in Scorpio. This highlights sensuality, plus the emotional and physical feelings of attachment, attraction and desire… from luxurious and rich food to romantic love. Just revel in it.

 

Gemini

Two things have entered your world. The first is a symbol of attraction – a magical force that acts like gravity and pulls gratifying and indulgent energy towards us. It can feel desirous and sensual.  The second is a game changer, it excels in breaking us free from the things that bind us to situations and people. However, this week seems intent on dragging old wounds and difficult feelings to the fore. Try to focus on the new entries instead!

 

Cancer

As the week goes by you are put into relating mode with the approach of the Full Moon in passionate Scorpio, whilst the Sun is in sensual Taurus. From the words passionate and sensual you can see what’s coming. Feelings are a big feature of this week. And that means emotional feelings and the sensual feelings we get through the skin. If you are not in a relationship, you can still feel the need to indulge in sweet or creamy food.

 

Leo

The coming Full Moon in Scorpio resonates with self-indulgence, sensual delights and the feelings associated with love and relationship. Of course, those in a romantic relationship should find it easy to express this stuff. If not, then I suggest a big bar of chocolate followed by a lot of exercise! Full Moons are intense times for Leos, so put your heart and soul into the best chocolate because you really deserve it.

 

Virgo

 The Full Moon this week means emotions are heightened for all of us. But you have your own separate issues to contend with. Virgos want to fix things more than anything else in the world and this week you get your opportunity. You may find yourself dwelling on old wounds, past difficulties and bitter times. Do this if you must, but remember this is all about healing…. Do it only to HEAL the past, not dwell on it. Oh, and eat chocolate!

 

Libra

What a great opportunity to write a chapter of that book, a letter or a web page. Make it about love and the World of Two. This week communication is highlighted and the words should come easily. Libra is all about the strategy and nuances of relating, but in a logical way. However, this week’s Full Moon in Scorpio should lend you a little spice to your words and embellish them with a feeling that isn’t always available to you.

 

Scorpio

Well, here is a week to remember. The Scorpio world is full of emotion, passion and desire but this is rarely seen by others. It is kept hidden from all others. However, the Cosmos reserves one special week a year for a celebration of Scorpionic expressions of love, and this is it. This year’s Full Moon in Scorpio! Try to contain this if you can, but don’t be surprised if it shows!

 

Sagittarius

Well, here is a distraction from family issues. A grand celebration of chocolate, rich food and sweet stuff. It is called a Full Moon in Scorpio, but really it involves two Signs, Scorpio and Taurus. Together these represent a sumptuous celebration of sensual stuff that would embarrass most Saggies. Passion and lust at this level just doesn’t hit the places that you would rather visit. It is all a bit too steamy… so just go for the chocolate!

 

Capricorn

Not another Full Moon. Really?? And one about sexual pleasure, passion and sensuality? Really?? Capricornians are often far too practical for this kind of stuff. It isn’t very productive, is it? Well not financially so anyway. However, somewhere in there lurks an Earth Sign’s natural sensuality and earthiness. Might you be a little bit interested …. maybe….. a little bit of a cuddle might be nice…..  

 

Aquarius

Logical matters, interesting news, science stuff maybe, conversations about politics…. these things are all in the Aquarian mindset…. But slushy, passionate and sultry moments of lust? This week celebrates something that doesn’t generally float the Aquarian boat. In a week which saw your release into a lighter, brighter mind-set, the Moon and Sun decide to get desirous! Get the wind in your hair and ignore the Full Moon.

 

Pisces

The Sun in Taurus and the Moon in Scorpio means a Full Moon in Scorpio. Okay, Scorpio is a Water Sign so there should be some resonance with you. However, Pisceans don’t generally indulge in the more obvious sexual delights that Scorpio represents. In fact, Pisceans tend to be more chaste. However, there are indulgences that we can all share during this week’s Full Moon… Chocolate… rich food, fine wine…. Sweet puddings… go ahead!

 

 

Aries

Phew… you made it through last week. (If you don’t know what I’m talking about... you’re lucky, and don’t bother reading the rest!) Now what? Well, although you may have many doubts about something, push ahead anyway. If something has to end, let it go and move on, it had no place in your future anyway. Take any opportunity to talk. The week gets easier as we move through it.

Taurus

Let’s start with… this is your time of the year and it should be feeling good. Now for the wearisome bit. Towards the end of the week, you enter a super-turbo zone. The energy around you wants to break up, break down, break through or break off. It could be you that expresses it, or it could come from another, but either way, when it hits you, it’s hard to just sit on it. Look for something exciting to do and channel it that way?

Gemini

Right now, there is a keen sense of responsibility in the air. A worry of some kind. Money? Career? Kids? Now… trust me… worry is a good thing because something needs sorting out and focus is necessary. You should be able to clear this by Wednesday. Then what? Basically… not a lot. For the rest of the week, make the most of the energetic environment and get out there.

Cancer

Your sleep pattern should now have returned to normal, after the ridiculous energy of last week. This week seems humble enough, with conversation, commerce and connections being important for the first part of it. Early Wednesday morning (UK time) could be a little irritating when you are forced out of your shell by demands that might be difficult to avoid. But you could be in a playful mood for the rest of the week.

Leo

You have moved into a lazy, indolent phase, when it is all too pleasant to eat good food and drink fine wine. Sounds great until you weigh yourself. It is also possible to notice nature and revel in material things, indulging in purchases… sounds great until you check your bank account! Hhhmmm, not that Leo’s bother much with self-control… so, okay. I’ve warned you, now go ahead and indulge!

Buy my new book ‘The Easy Way to Learn Astrology’

 

Virgo

I should think you are fed up with hearing about the Significant Other by now, so it is with pleasure that I say we can let that one go for now. The energy around you right now has a worrying aspect to it, but this is par for the course huh? It’ll give you chance to sort through the things you want and the things you don’t. There is sufficient available energy to make a good start on the garden, so get on with organising that too.   

Buy my new book ‘The Easy Way to Learn Astrology’

 

Libra

It is likely your normal sleep pattern was turned on its head last week, but you should be back to normal by now. That said, you are in a very ‘profound’ phase and the milestones of life’s cycles may be upon you in the form of births, deaths, relationships and transitions. Encourage conversations and listen intently where you can. The Significant Other has the potential to act out of character, so be prepared for anything.

Buy my new book ‘The Easy Way to Learn Astrology’

 

Scorpio

There should be a strong relationship theme in your life right now because the planets have aligned to make this really obvious. Is this filling you with joy? Maybe. The problem is that you like to take your time assessing, watching, pondering and testing the Significant Other. Things may be a little too obvious… not allowing you to secretly gather information steadily and unseen. Nevertheless, you would be crazy not to dive in.

Buy my new book ‘The Easy Way to Learn Astrology’

 

Sagittarius

For most of this year your ruling planet has been stuck in the same place, suggesting that you too have been in the same place, with just family issues to amuse you. And unusually, you may have even read your own Sun horoscope to see what that says, such is your frustration. (Sagittarians tend to let their own instincts guide them, they aren’t big users of prediction). And this week? Again, not much changes.  

Buy my new book ‘The Easy Way to Learn Astrology’

 

Capricorn

I did wonder if Cappies experience a change in their usual sleep patterns last week – such was the power of that New Moon, but anyway, all back to ‘normal’ now? No, not really. Right now, you have opportunities to take advantage of. There are conversations to be had and energy to be employed in projects involving hard physical work. That’s good. You always enjoy mountains to climb, it makes you feel successful and deserving.

Buy my new book ‘The Easy Way to Learn Astrology’

 

Aquarius

I think it is safe to say that Aquarians struggle with the emotional aspects of romantic relating. They can be a little heavy and demanding. Sexual matters are even more perplexing. Depending on your circumstances, this is probably a time of emotional turbulence, whether that is a good or a bad thing. It may not be avoidable, so just take deep breaths and get time to yourself now and again. This too shall pass.

Buy my new book ‘The Easy Way to Learn Astrology’

 

Pisces

It is true that all Pisceans are the sum total of all the people that have loved them. For you tend to ‘soak up’ the thoughts, wishes and feelings of others, loosing yourself in the process. However, this is the Piscean calling; to heal all pain and redeem the human race for its sins. At the moment, it appears that you can recall all these relationships more strongly than before. That’s fine, just make sure you take part in the here and now too. Buy my new book ‘The Easy Way to Learn Astrology’

Aries

In all mythical battles there is a point where it looks as if the battle is faltering and the chances of victory are hopeless. The hero is too weak, her strength all used up. Now get this… pretend to give up. Leave it for two weeks. Feign submission whilst quietly assessing, re-grouping and looking for weaknesses. You are at the bottom of the wheel, and heading for the top.

 

Taurus

This week describes the experience of ‘growing’. So that is about the parent/child bond and how we ‘grow’ within that, or it is about appreciating the growing season in Nature. Two seemingly different themes, but both are earthly human experiences. However, the weekend coming is more spiritually based – a unique opportunity to consider how your inner spirit and soul work with your outer experience.

 

Gemini

The Soul task of all Gemini’s is to turn their reservoir of learnt knowledge into a meaningful ‘Theory of Life’. This isn’t obvious when you are young, but as you get older, the main plot is revealed. This week, universal problem-solving gets easier as the week progresses. The Meaning of Life becomes more obvious, or at least dances before you, so do your best outside-of-the-box thinking.

 

Cancer

Monday looks fairly adventurous and energetic, but by Thursday, it is obvious work or responsibilities are commanding the stage. However, it seems Saturday has the most interesting energy of the week ahead, when relationships are highlighted. You could make them, break them or deepen them… depending on the stage that you are at.

 

Leo

The weekend may have been frustrating in that you are wanting to grow or expand in some way, but you are also being held back by a slow process… or… a family member. Listen up! This week is NOT for the big change that’s coming, it’s for the necessary ’field work’. Preparation. Initiating. Instigating. The stuff that you Fire Signs can’t be bothered with. By now, you are probably muttering under your breath… trust me... investigate!

 

Virgo

Virgoans love to rummage through things, carefully sorting them into groups or piles. Then they go over it all again, deciding what to keep and what to discard. This is a fairly easy exercise when it is the kitchen cupboard, but what about when the ‘Significant Other’ is the project? It is far more difficult to label and straighten a person you know well. Good luck with that this week.

 

Libra

This is something of a complex week with all kinds of relationships themes. Yesterday it was a parent of child, later in the week, it is the Significant Other who is in a bit of a tizz. This is stuff they should be working out for themselves, but of course, you are pressured into the matter. Be careful you don’t finish up being the one who gets blamed for everything.

 

Scorpio

It may not be possible to discern where the most real emotions reside this week, either in you or in a Significant Other. Likewise, who is being the most stubborn? It is hard to tell. Or should I call that stubbornness ‘intensity’? But you live for all this, you come alive when things are ‘steamy’ or subtle, so dive in.

 

Sagittarius

For the first couple of days of the new week, the Moon is sailing through your area of the sky and this can make you perplexed or a little uneasy. Not a familiar state of mind for Sagittarians, who are nearly always confident. But understanding some of the subtleties or nuances of life could make you even more knowledgeable and sort after, so try to glean the wisdom.

 

Capricorn

You don’t really like to rush at life. Being an ‘Old Hand’ at it, you have the wisdom to plod through and get it right, rather than dash and make mistakes. However, it seems something is applying pressure or urging you into a speed you don’t find comfortable. Something might feel too rushed or aggressive. There really isn’t anything you can do to slow it down, and there are advantages, so plod a little faster.

 

Aquarius

Clear-headed, analytical, logical Aquarians love their friends, but don’t like people so much. Likewise, romantic demands and declarations of love can annoy them, because such soppiness muddies their clean, straight lives and messes up the bed sheets. So quite how you are going to respond to a Cosmos convinced it is your turn to have a relationship encounter, I don’t know.

 

Pisces

During the later part of this week an energetic force slides out of your part of the sky and normally this would mean you feel an energy drain from your world. However, this force is not going to leave without an amazing rollercoaster effect. So you should feel highs and lows in your stamina and adrenalin levels until next week. Be ready for digging the garden and … not being able to move a muscle.

Weekly Horoscopes for Monday 23rd March

Posted on 23rd March, 2026

Aries

There is joy in the air, and no doubt that’s a relief, but you can’t really get up to speed until the weekend… then you’re really moving. If you were born around the 14th/15th April, a different prediction I’m afraid - these could be challenging times. The best response is not to stay and fight, but to pull away and get ahead of things. Put your energy into self-improvement, then you’ll be the winner.

 

Taurus

You may be approaching a bit of a minefield which becomes obvious on Friday. Remember that nothing can be healed that isn’t first felt. We must feel to heal. Natural justice or karma is responsible for all this - someone didn’t do what they should have done and this is cosmic payback.

 

Gemini

Now then, things are finally moving, but verrry slooowly.  Have you noticed that your brain doesn’t seem to be working as efficiently as usual? Or did you think it was others who weren’t being precise? Both communications and feelings may appear confusing. Imagine you are talking in an aqualung from the bottom of the sea and you’ll get the picture. Work extra hard at both spoken and written words.

 

Cancer

From Monday to Wednesday you could be in a more communitive mood than usual. Then, exhausted by all that chat, you may wish to withdraw into your home or shell for the rest of the week. Early Friday morning is worth a mention because of its reminders of old wounds or painful feelings. Conjure up your healing wisdom in response.

 

Leo

You face the final challenge of early 2026 towards the end of this week and it comes in the form of a testing of all your friendships, finances and secure structures. These must be in good shape to see you through the rest of the year. Anything not fit may have to leave your life, but it wasn’t right for the future anyway. Trust the process.

 

Virgo

Confusion rules in your part of the sky this week. Is it you or is it them? Which of you can’t remember the right date or the arrangement? What was the name of that town? And where on EARTH are the car keys??  And then there are the health issues… this pain, that pain. This condition, that appointment. And where are the car keys… again! No, you aren’t losing your mind and all will be restored mid-April.

 

Libra

Librans love relating. They love going over the psychology and the feeling that The World of Two brings. Currently any relationship in your life is being floodlit, so surely it is an interesting time? Well maybe, but this is a testing ‘warts and all’ floodlight – do you like all you see? This could go either way, do you recognise a lifelong situation or an ending?

 

Scorpio

It seems as if there is some dissention between yourself and a parent or child as the weekend approaches. You may have to take an action you didn’t want to, but in the long run, the planets suggest steady growth from your new-found, recent change of perspective. It seems you are more willing to take the lead this week, despite your usual reticence.

 

Sagittarius

Maybe there was an emotional flurry over the weekend, but it has now faded. Thursday reveals another brief, emotional or sensitive issue, which still seems to involve a family member. If I add to that the sluggish pace of life at this time, we can recognise that you are not ‘in your element’. As in, not enough fiery excitement. It is all rather dampening actually.

 

Capricorn

A pleasant week with one or two pleasing distractions. One may come as early as Tuesday, when a steamy or erotic moment may present itself… I’ll leave that there.  Then on Wednesday, there is a joyous energy present which could lighten your usual load. And all through the week you are in touch with a magical, transformative effect – be careful what you wish for!

 

Aquarius

Aquarians are very good at telling others what they should do with their life and loves, and how to change for the better. BUT they are terrible at accepting change in themselves. So it shouldn’t surprise either of us that you are hesitating about a certain proposal or possibility. It looks romantic in nature… and might change things… but maybe that’s the problem.

 

Pisces

You have joy and a couple of brainy symbols in your neck of the woods. This should make for an interesting week of inspiration and intellectual stimulation. Don’t look back, don’t look down, and forget everything that happened before this week. It is time to celebrate life and look forward to the future.

Weekly Horoscopes Monday 16th March 2026

Posted on 16th March, 2026

Aries

Yesterday (Sunday) might have witnessed an important conversation (typed or spoken), but did it feel important at the time? Here’s the thing… this theme emerged around the 18th January and will come up again on 20th April along with a certain finality. Be aware of the potential ‘ending’ and think carefully about it now.

 

 

Taurus

As mid-week approaches, you may feel aggrieved with seemingly unreasonable, or excessive requests, which may come from family members. If you feel backed into a corner, you could then have to take an action you didn’t want to take. Okay, just do it. In general, this week is about passivity so take the line of least resistance.

 

 

Gemini

Let’s talk hamster wheels and the action of running round and round in one, whilst the wheel stays in the same place. That sums this week up. You would like to get cracking with stuff - and you have a furious pace - but you’re going nowhere. However, going over and over the same uncomfortable ground IS making you unusually thorough and incisive, as well as uncomfortably bored!

 

 

Cancer

On Tuesday you sail into a sea fog or emotional soup and come to a full stop. The thick mist dampens spirits and smothers enthusiasm. Your direction disappears along with the horizon. My advice? Binge a box set or go to sleep until Thursday. For then the fog lifts, and you should feel a rush of exhilarating new energy.

 

Leo

As you start the week, the goddess of relating facilitates a pleasant experience. However, you are in a ridiculously fragile and exhausted state at the moment, so the experience may bring about a different kind of result. The heavens do not stop their weakening influence until the 27th March, so don’t make any important decisions until then.

 

Virgo

You are in a strange place this week. It might feel as if you are not yourself. Maybe you can’t find your keys or remember where you put something. Perhaps there are moments of déjà vu, or precognition. Look out for flashes of intensity and challenging thoughts. Aside from this, a ‘significant other’ may loom large and their needs seem to override yours.

 

Libra

Still the ‘significant other’ is having an impact on you, but for the most part this week, your world is a little quieter than most others. Next weekend looks rather interesting though - we are actually in a Tech/comms tsunami this year and it looks as if some of this enters your thoughts then. Librans have communication skills, so go ahead and ‘do it’.

 

Scorpio

Would any of you notice if I didn’t write anything for you this week? After all you hardly want everyone to know your inside thoughts and secret desires do you? And let’s be honest, you trust your own intuition and instincts far more than anything an astrologer can come up with. I’d best get on with the next Sign then.

 

Sagittarius

In November 2025 you began to metaphorically ‘move backwards’ over old ground. This continued for months until last week, and your Tardis has now landed in a similar place or energy to that of August 2025. Seriously. What now? Well, you might think about re-building again with hindsight, foreknowledge and the wisdom of having done this before!

 

Capricorn

There are some tantalising things you can now get to grips with. How to think about yourself for a change, instead of taking care of others. You are well placed to enter a growth phase, perhaps testing leadership skills and personal stamina. Breath in the air and give yourself a few challenges to be getting on with.

 

Aquarius

So here I am, ready to remind you of the romantic opportunity next weekend. No need to “tut” and raise your eyes to the ceiling. These things come to us all once in a while and you can enjoy this. I suggest some kind of pursuit if you are asked and have no idea what to say. Pot-holing? A Stargate convention? Okay, leaving it up to you then.

 

Pisces

By next Tuesday 24th March the Sun has moved its light and energy right out of your world. But before it does this, you have the intense New Moon in Pisces on Thursday. Meaning the Moon and Sun come together in your part of the sky, bringing you familiarity, thoughtfulness and emotional fullness. Make the best of this personal new year.

Weekly Horoscopes for Monday 9th March 26

Posted on 9th March, 2026

Aries

You are wading through a sea of compassionate feelings and longings for the unobtainable. And in truth it will be mid-April before you get control of things again. Try to avoid initiating new projects now, unless you are prepared to take it slow. Charitable work could feel satisfying. Look out for good causes to support.

 

Taurus

After an up and down weekend, navigating the coming week is easier. It offers energy and speed – words that don’t usually figure in the world view of the placid Taurean! So, make the most of it then. Mow the lawn, bake for the cake sale, start projects and generally move things around until March ends… then collapse in a heap…

 

Gemini

The 9th February and the 9th March should have found you engaged in a similar pursuit. For on both occasions, Athena, goddess of Feminine intelligence, made a big presence in your life and enabled a learning or healing situation. Then on 11th April you get your third and last opportunity to hear the wisdom. Make a diary note?

 

Cancer

Imagine you are on a reed boat gliding down the river through various environments. As the week begins you are in an intense mood, but this quickly swings into carefree confidence on Tuesday and Wednesday, so keep an eye on your money and don’t over spend. Getting to Thursday and beyond, it is time for a more sober time with a Significant Other.

 

Leo

Twelve more days and you are out of the mystical but tiring atmosphere of the cosmic Soul Lake. You journey alone now – companions are out of sight for a while, but that’s ok. Regrets, longings and wistful memories may drift around you, but this is good too. Take your time, rest and contemplate. Seek instinctual, spiritual answers.

 

Virgo It may be difficult to feel things are safe enough, tidy enough, organised enough or SECURE at the moment. At any moment the whole lot could unravel. You may be feeling too preoccupied to even give your usual constructive advice. Try letting go and relaxing. Lean back and float on a lily pad down the river. Trust it will be fine.

 

Libra

Try to remember the phrase ‘This too shall pass’ because it will. You may feel backed into a corner or entranced by the words or actions of a Significant Other. You may feel overwhelmed by their will, or maybe they are larger than life, holding all the cards. You may just want to retreat until all this is over – fine do that. This too SHALL pass.

 

Scorpio This week, you may be in receipt of some wise counsel. That makes a change, often others don’t make that much sense. I have repeatedly talked about your preferred isolation since the New Year and how this has given you time to ponder and think about things. This week’s wisdom may complement your thoughts.

 

Sagittarius

Well, this is flipping annoying. Another week of potential stagnation and possibly boredom. There is nothing a Sagittarian hates more than being kept in one place or having to go over something again … and again. Reach out to learn something or communicate with others, it might help pass the time.

 

Capricorn

After a possibly enjoyable or abundant weekend, this week could shape up nicely. You might find you are finally losing the sense of not being in control and ‘all at sea’. Normality is being resumed, even though things might actually be going the other way now… getting too spicy or energetic. Expect the unexpected.

 

Aquarius

Aquarians are more likely to be captivated by interesting conversations about esoteric subjects than romantic declarations of love. They prefer best mates to wimpy lovers. So I’d best warn you now that in a couple of weeks an interesting relationship encounter is on offer. It is a solid, dependable offer or olive branch, so be prepared.

 

Pisces

There is some intellectual stuff floating around you this week, so try to get on board with any research you have been wanting to do, or any reading that you have been dying to catch up with. You are getting ever closer to making significant changes in your life style and environment, so this might be the time to catch up with outstanding issues.

Weekly Horoscopes for Monday 9th February 26

Posted on 9th February, 2026

Aries

As the week progresses the need to be alone intensifies. You might find yourself cleaning something in the home whilst you ponder your relationship with yourself or the World of One. Cleaning? Aries? Well, it is a ritual that calms our struggle and it allows you an excuse to get the space you need. Use the time to work out a balance between your spiritual strength and the needs of others.

 

Taurus

Something may have given you a bumpy ride this last weekend. Perhaps unusually, you may have longed for, or done, something different or exciting. Or were you surprised by sudden events? By Thursday of the week coming, you could begin to regret this rare upheaval, so try to reduce its impact now, because at the end of the day you do prefer a quiet life.

 

Gemini

You may feel in a whimsical state, but the good news is you do have Athena on your side, so turn your attention to something other than romantic relating. Try to study, learn and think strategically. You have access to a higher intelligence which should help with problem solving, sympathy with suffering and mystical healing practices.

 

Cancer

The Moon has been moving through Scorpio, so you might have wanted to kill, lose yourself in passion, or master something. But that all changes on Tuesday when your mood lifts and confidence rises. However, romantic relating remains on the serious side, particularly on Saturday – curious timing for Valentine’s Day!

 

Leo

In truth, Leo’s generally struggle with Valentine’s Day. Perhaps it rarely feels as personally joyful, fun-filled and passionate as the rest of the world seems to paint it. Straight up? This year is no exception. Let it go. Laugh it off and see the irony? Leo’s love romance, so WHY is it on such an unlikely date for them? Maybe for you, roses can appear all year. You don’t need a one day reminder.

 

Virgo If Valentine’s is a thing for you this year, then maybe consider the following? You are in the mood for perfection this week and on Saturday especially so. To be honest, when a shot of volatile energy arrives on Valentine’s Day it could make or break it. So on Saturday, try taking a deep breath and be prepared to work at being less critical and more forgiving of yourself and your partner.

 

Libra

The energy around you seems to imply issues to do with parents or children and they are pulling in different directions. Who gets to be the one the others follow? The parent/child theme is so strong, even if it is not obvious, look for it. Try considering the impact of inherited family traits. Or in what way have parents influenced the Significant Other? Then try to maintain balance.

 

Scorpio

Last year you entered a new environment or state of being, and this remains the focus so far this year. Perhaps you are grappling with new subjects or ideas, new technology or concepts. Maybe discovering a new, logical ability. All this enables you to go deep and search into the past or old mysteries. Do it now, while the rest of the world isn’t looking!

 

Sagittarius

In our dimension, it is the job of the Sagittarian force to know everything and pontificate. After all, someone has to play god and teach the minions. But recently you may have been in more emotional family/partner waters, which are coming to a head on Saturday. Even the Greek god Zeus had the occasional weaker moments… it’s good for you.

 

Capricorn

Go on, admit it, you like old traditions, but is Valentine’s Day an excuse for over-priced flowers? Well maybe not this year, because relationship is highlighted at the moment, and at the last minute, exactly on cue, the Moon brings a softer feeling to the day. Whether or not you are feeling the luurve now, you could be misty-eyed on Saturday.

 

Aquarius

I agree, it does seem ridiculous to have Valentine’s Day when the Sun is in your watch. The Aquarian energy being most unimpressed with sloppy declarations and half dead flowers! For you, no-one is special. But maybe that is the point, a real cosmic irony. On that one day, you’ll be forced to play along. To do what we don’t want to do is always good for us!

 

Pisces

After three years, a very dreary energy is now sailing out of your waters. So you can let go of sorrowful redemption and drudgery. But has it been so long, your chin is pinned to your chest? Dear Piscean, you are compassion and kindness themselves, and actually the world needs you back now. Put down that load and lift yourself up to the surface, a lot has happened and we have been waiting for you.

Aries

 

You may still be reeling from recent, brutal events where you would have felt better if there was something or someone to punch. But now it seems you are lost in The Matrix where only a superior knowledge of data engineering will get you anywhere. Put energy into networking or reaching out to those with more knowledge.

 

Taurus

 

Since the 18th January you may have been presented with different opportunities, but in such a fast whirl there has been little time to examine the potentials, or meet the need for perfection. More recently, home life and the demands of the outside world have been competing, but the end is in sight. In one more week you can sit down and relax again.

 

Gemini

 

You have probably enjoyed the recent period of clear-headed organisation. Networking and social encounters may have gone well. However, you have only a few more days before this window closes and a cloud of winter melancholy descends again. Try to give yourself some writing time, the ideas will just flow.

 

Cancer

 

The recent Full Moon was dramatic as they always are this time of the year. Cancerians tend to like Christmas because of the family connotations and are generally sad when it is over. So perhaps the welcome fiery nature of the Leo Full Moon will shake off the blues and focus you on fitness, finance and friends.

 

Leo

 

The only Full Moon in your own Sign each year comes around this time of the year and nearly always brings technical problems with it. And since Leos are not generally first in the technical genius line up, we can assume this was frustrating. But social media can also bring confusing and defeating messages. Right now? Stay out of the way during this emotional time.

 

Virgo

 

My goodness, you should be enjoying yourself. You have just the right astrological conditions to straighten it up, smooth it down, re-sort the contents, turn out the drawers and empty the laundry basket. It seems some alone time is in order, but whilst not particularly wanting to spend time with close family members, contacting more distant friends could be appealing.

 

Libra

 

There is a particular emphasis on friendships and networking at the moment, things that Librans are well equipped for. It comes at this time every year and in fact, it may be this type of companionship currently seems more appealing than romantic partners. Good. Get on with it and give each other a break, you need one.

 

Scorpio

 

The recent shot of adrenaline in your life has probably not drained away yet. An unwelcome aggression, or a welcome burst of energy, it probably took some holding. You have not been quite sure of your territory since the long-term changes of recent years, but be assured the ‘shot’ put you in a much more powerful position and set you up for a two year cycle.

 

Sagittarius

 

Seems like it is you versus them for the time being. Family, parents, children, work associates, neighbours, romantic partners, those-who-know-everything…. And on top of that, you have to go over things you thought were behind you. Now that is really taking the biscuit! Best put that glass dome over your head and ignore them all.

 

Capricorn

 

The last three years witnessed a certain longing in the background of your life. Something you wanted to reach for didn’t come within your grasp. Well, you are nearly there. After the middle of this month, you will feel stronger and more confident than you have felt in a long while and it will make the difference. Even you can smile at that one!

 

Aquarius

 

Can you believe, this week the gates will be unlocked and freedom becomes possible? The trouble is, you have been restricted for so long, you have forgotten how to fly. Midweek sees a verbal clash, followed by more antagonism at the weekend, but this will help you make your mind up. It will take a few more weeks yet, but the promise of freedom beckons.

 

Pisces

 

You may appear to have been thrown out of your comfort zone. At first, this can seem energising or maybe a tad irritating, but it won’t be long before it becomes exhausting. This is a testing time and your new surroundings may appear harsh. You may have to let go of some cherished dreams. BUT, it is also a new opportunity to make real changes and leave the past behind.

On the 20th January ’26, the Sun broke free of Capricorn’s rigid hold, and sailed into the transpersonal Air Sign of Aquarius. If ever you can sense a sudden change in the environment, then you should get this one. Each Sign seeks to break down the legacy of the previous Sign and Aquarius is sooo waiting for this.

 

The move from the gloomy, heavy weight of earthy Capricorn to the freedom of airy Aquarius is like leaping out of a cave and off a cliff with a hang glider. Or perhaps how one might feel being released from a jail onto a mountain top. But neither of those two scenarios reflect the sudden need to network.

 

Aquarius is a group or trans-personal, free-wheeling energy. It needs to communicate and exhilarates in the free exchange of ideas. It rules connectivity, technology, higher concepts and engagement with ideals. But paradoxically, Aquarius also likes the predictability of maths and science. And what do we have in the 21st century that appeals to all this? The world wide web and the internet.

 

Right now, there is a pile up of planets in the Aquarian section of our sky, giving great focus to this energy. Mercury, the Sun, Vesta, and Venus are all gathered around the early degrees with Pluto, and the Moon and Athena are not far off. A lovely `nod` to the dawning Age of Aquarius!

 

The star of the show is Pluto, and this Dwarf Planet is on a mission to test out the potential growth of all those areas of our lives ruled by this futuristic Zodiac Sign. In future months and years, the artificial intelligence revolution will come under Pluto’s need to ensure that Life/Nature follows ‘The Rules’ as in…. everything must be born, grow, live a cycle and then die.

 

Sooo… this week I expect some early, positive signs of Pluto’s attention. Maybe some good news about breakthroughs in I.T. or science. And hopefully not breakdowns and interruptions of our technology. But…. with a large solar proton storm and a severe geomagnetic storm both breaking out around Earth as I write this, the chances of disruption are high!

 

On a lighter note, look out for the `lift` in energy and mood… whilst rushing out to gaze at the auroras!

Unpacking Some of 2026

Posted on 19th January, 2026

If you were hoping to see the end of 2025's big issue, think again. Simply, more work is needed. Although it may not feel like it at the time, the first few months of 2026 bring the opportunity of better solutions and greater stability as the shoots of the new paradigm continue to grow. Little is completely obvious until July. Even then you will only have a better view of the future - but at least you will finally be able to plan for what's coming!

 

In late January of 2026, Neptune moves into, and remains in, Masculine Aries. In late April, Uranus moves into, and remains in, Masculine Gemini. They both move from Feminine Signs to Masculine ones.

 

Neptune and Uranus are considered a pair or twins in astronomy. Both ice giants with similar composition and size. In astrology they can be considered two sides of the same coin. Neptune is the Feminine side, Uranus the Masculine side. Both of these FORCES have to be handled with care. Both can be destructive and life changing. However we encounter them, they operate outside our control, presenting us with the challenge of living with them. The Masculine energy of Uranus uproots and breaks apart with lightning speed. The Feminine energy of Pisces dissolves and weakens our structures. However the Masculine Uranus can be ingeniously creative and the Feminine Neptune can be softly inspiring and compassionate.

 

In late January of 2026, Neptune moves into, and remains in, Masculine Aries. In late April, Uranus moves into, and remains in, Masculine Gemini. They both move from Feminine Signs to Masculine ones. Since these ice giants move at different rates and rarely move Signs, it is remarkable that they are doing so within weeks of each other. And even more remarkable that they tip the Yin Yang balance of our environment from changes happening in the Feminine Signs, to changes happening in the Masculine Signs. What does this mean? It is part of the Rise of the Feminine (the long over-due rebalancing of Patriarchy and Matriarchy that began around 2020 with the pandemic). Masculine energy will be adjusting to the new Feminine paradigm. The ice giants are symbolising this.

 

But these aren't the only movements in early 2026..... there is more....
