🐏 Aries Sun & Rising 2026 Horoscope

Your affirmation: I take my dreams seriously.
Key dates: 1/26, 2/13, 2/20, 6/19, 10/3, 10/23

Neptune (the planet of imagination) enters Aries on January 26th, and Saturn (the planet of hard work) follows on February 13th. Then they join forces on February 20th. Starting on or around this day, you’ll be more idealistic and practical than you’ve ever been—a winning combo, if you ask us. So dream big, then get to work.

When Chiron (the minor planet associated with medicine and wisdom) enters Taurus on June 19th, just don’t ignore your sore spots around money. The financial issues that show up aren’t here to punish you. They’re trying to help you grow—if you’re willing to meet them in a calm, grounded way. Don’t be afraid to seek out teachers or coaches who can support you in sticking to a budget, easing your impostor syndrome, or fighting against economic injustice. But keep your wits about you and do your homework before acting on any advice you get.

When Venus (the planet of relationships) retrogrades through Scorpio starting October 3rd, it’s a good time to review your contracts, business agreements, and applications for grants or loans. If your collaborators don’t seem trustworthy, listen to your gut. The Venus cazimi on October 23rd is a light-bulb moment that will reveal what (or who) is blocking your progress. Use it. And if you realize you’re the one getting in your own way, be honest. Telling the truth clears your path to success this year.

🐂 Taurus Sun & Rising 2026 Horoscope

Your affirmation: Unexpected opportunities are coming my way. I’m ready to receive them.
Key dates: 2/17, 4/25

On February 17th, an Aquarius eclipse opens the door to meeting new people and starting fresh projects in your career or leadership roles. Just be sure to pace yourself—when inspiration strikes, it can be easy to get carried away and burn out quickly.

When Uranus (the planet of disruption) re-enters Gemini on April 25th, you get another jolt of innovative energy when it comes to your financial plans, income streams, or economic justice activism. Mixing it up is your key to success this year, so don’t limit yourself to exploring only one business idea or budgeting approach.

The rest of 2026 is for challenging your most stubborn beliefs about abundance and breaking free of outdated money habits. Uranus will be in Gemini until 2032/2033, so this is just the beginning of a liberating new chapter for you. Forget what’s tried and true. It’s time to surprise yourself and discover what’s possible when you throw out the rule book.

👭 Gemini Sun & Rising 2026 Horoscope

Your affirmation: My creative gifts are currency, and I spend them wisely.
Key dates: 4/25, 6/29, 8/27, 10/3, 10/24

This year keeps bringing in the blessings that started in 2025—all thanks to Jupiter in Cancer, which has been boosting your resources and talents since last June. If you’ve been meaning to make a bold move, the planet of abundance is here to help you work with what you’ve got, especially from now until June 29th. All of your assets, including your emotional resilience and your creative gifts, can be valuable currency if you treat them with care—and generosity keeps the bounty flowing, so share whatever you can.

Your major headline for the year happens on April 25th, when Uranus (the planet of brilliance, freedom, and disruption) enters Gemini, where it will stay for seven-ish years. Expect a spike in nervous energy and a wave of brilliant ideas that come faster than you can keep up with.

Then, on August 27th, the final lunar eclipse in Pisces could bring a turning point in your public life. Dreams and delusions could be surging around this moment, but trust that the plot twists are steering you closer to realizing your purpose.

By the time Venus (the planet of connection) and Mercury (the planet of communication) both retrograde through Scorpio—starting October 3rd and October 24th, respectively—you’ll be refining the rhythm of your workflow on your own terms. Spoiler: You don’t need to prove your worth by flirting with burnout. Set boundaries, delegate, and curate a motivating playlist for those boring chores. Use the latter half of 2026 to figure out where to channel your energy and where your effort can make the most meaningful impact.

🦀 Cancer Sun & Rising 2026 Horoscope

Your affirmation: I allow myself to dream big and act even bigger.
Key dates: 2/20, 6/29

For you, 2026 is all about big dreams—and even bigger follow-through. Saturn (the planet of structure) and Neptune (the planet of ideals) are joining forces in Aries on February 20th to help you redefine what success means to you. Whatever mark you want to make on the world, Neptune will stretch your imagination, and Saturn will bring the grit and discipline needed to achieve your goals. But it won’t be easy: Saturn is the planet of challenges, after all—and in Aries, it has to work extra hard to get results. Some bubbles may burst before you reach the finish line, and some obstacles may make you doubt yourself, but you can use your frustrations as fuel. Keep showing up, break things down into doable micro-moves, and seek support from a mentor or coach whenever your energy dips.

When Jupiter (the planet of abundance) enters Leo on June 29th, your resources get a glow-up that lasts for a whole year. Maybe that creative side hustle suddenly takes off, or maybe someone boosts your confidence in your talents. Whatever the case, investing in what makes you feel accomplished and excited pays off. And the more generously you offer your skills, the more you’ll receive in return.

🦁 Leo Sun & Rising 2026 Horoscope

Your affirmation: I’m ready to make a mark on the world and take a leap of faith.
Key dates: 3/3, 4/25, 6/19

You’ve had some recent breakthroughs in your public life—thanks to Uranus (the planet of disruption), which has spent the past eight-ish years in Taurus. And 2026 is your chance to run with them. For the first few months of the year, focus on prioritizing the leadership roles and career choices that genuinely excite you. By the time Uranus re-enters Gemini on April 25th, you’ll be reminded that making a mark on the world requires taking big risks and leaps of faith, even if it means shaking up the status quo.

Meanwhile, the Virgo eclipse on March 3rd is all about your money. Whether you’ve been dealing with unplanned expenses or showcasing your talents for a larger audience, this eclipse continues a series of lessons about your skills and resources. Pay attention to any spending habits or budgeting strategies that aren’t working for you.

Then Chiron (the minor planet associated with medicine and wisdom) enters Taurus on June 19th, spotlighting the ways you mentor others and heal your own relationship with success. If you’ve been comparing yourself with your peers, Chiron reminds you that this is always a losing game. Make an effort to learn what other people are really going through behind the scenes—and don’t shy away from opportunities to teach. The knowledge you gain this year is worth sharing.

🧝 Virgo Sun & Rising 2026 Horoscope

Your affirmation: I’m here to break barriers, not tiptoe around them, and fight for what’s fair.
Key dates: 4/25, 10/25

It’s time to break through barriers in your industry. When Uranus (the planet of disruption and innovation) re-enters Gemini on April 25th, it begins a bold new era for your career, leadership roles, or public life. From now until 2032/2033, Uranus’ transit through this chatty sign will stir up some restlessness, inspiring you to make sweeping changes in your biggest projects and ambitions. Give yourself space to brainstorm and experiment. Just because something hasn’t been done before doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try it. And don’t be surprised if you get a reputation for your radical, revolutionary, or even controversial ideas. Own it.

When Venus (the planet of relationships) retrogrades into Libra on October 25th, you’ll be re-evaluating your financial vision board—and possibly letting go of any plans, goals, and belongings you don’t need anymore. Ask yourself which connections and resources actually improve your quality of life and which ones don’t. If you realize you have to cut some ties or throw a yard sale, go for it. And if you notice any people-pleasing tendencies, codependency issues, or imbalanced power dynamics, name what needs to shift. This is your year to fight for what’s fair.

⚖️ Libra Sun & Rising 2026 Horoscope

Your affirmation: I am asking for what I need and will learn from my experiences.
Key dates: 6/19, 6/29, 7/23, 10/3, 10/23

Your first six months of 2026 are laced with luck. Whatever abundance you’ve been building in your public life, double down. With Jupiter still in Cancer until June 29th, you have cosmic support on your side to create—and sustain—the success you dream about.

When Chiron (the minor planet associated with medicine and wisdom) enters Taurus on June 19th, get clear on what isn’t working in your collaborations and financial partnerships. If you have to make your contracts or agreements more practical, do it—the more you can simplify them, the more they’ll work in your favor. And if any doubts or fears are blocking you, challenge yourself to negotiate for what you need anyway.

As Mercury (the planet of communication) retrogrades through Cancer between June 29th and July 23rd, be extra direct and focused in your career or leadership roles. If you end up making a mistake or two in public, roll with it—that’s how you grow. You’ll still be in review mode when Venus (the planet of connection) retrogrades through Scorpio starting October 3rd. Use this period to redefine what abundance means to you. Be radically honest about what you want in terms of money, belongings, or economic justice. The Venus cazimi on October 23rd highlights what you’re healing in your relationship with your resources. You can transform any tension into momentum if you meet it head-on, so be brave.

🦂 Scorpio Sun & Rising 2026 Horoscope

Your affirmation: When people recognize my talents, I let myself enjoy the glow.
Key dates: 2/20, 6/29

If work has been bringing you down, know that your passion is coming back online—for 2026 and beyond. With Saturn (the planet of discipline) and Neptune (the planet of ideals) teaming up in Aries on February 20th, your hustle, chores, and to-do lists get more imaginative and practical. Saturn and Neptune will be sharing a sign throughout 2026, so this is not the year to clock in and zone out. You’ll want to pour your efforts into something meaningful, even when you feel uninspired. If aspects of your daily grind continue to feel like a drag, pencil in creative breaks or explore new hobbies in your downtime. They’ll lead somewhere.

When Jupiter (the planet of abundance) enters showstopping Leo on June 29th, you can expect some well-deserved recognition for the work you do in the world—and the party will keep going for the next 12 months. Maybe you’ll land a promotion, get an unexpected opportunity to flaunt your talents, or simply clarify where you want to direct your gifts. Whatever you do, share your warmth, wisdom, and time in the spotlight. Your generosity will come back around.

🏹 Sagittarius Sun & Rising 2026 Horoscope

Your affirmation: I’m closing a chapter that’s run its course so I can make room for a new one.
Key dates: 3/3, 4/25

If you’re still asking who you want to be when you grow up, 2026 has some ideas for you. The Virgo eclipse on March 3rd gives you an opportunity to figure out what really matters to you in your life’s work. So, toss out your old definitions of success, the expectations that no longer make sense for you, and the professional roles you were never meant to play. If perfectionism has been holding you back, this eclipse is your cue to let it go. Whether you’re wrapping up a big project, sharing your expertise with an audience, or preparing to retire, this process may be bittersweet—closing a major chapter isn’t easy. But this release will make more space to focus on what you actually want to offer the world.

Once Uranus (the planet of disruption) leaves Taurus on April 25th, your daily grind is likely to feel less chaotic. All those curveballs you’ve faced over the past eight-ish years? Think of them as warmups for your next win. Every time you had to improvise your to-do list, experiment with unfamiliar tech, or pivot to a new path on a dime, you learned something. And the skills you honed in those moments are yours for keeps.

🐐 Capricorn Sun & Rising 2026 Horoscope

Your affirmation: I am curious, flexible, and open-minded, no matter what comes my way.
Key dates: 1/23, 2/17, 4/25, 10/25

This year is a chance to reimagine your finances from the ground up. Think: not just counting dollars and cents, but reassessing the patterns and habits that shape your sense of security. Pluto (the planet of transformation) is continuing its journey through Aquarius, where it’s calling out your money hang-ups, scarcity fears, and lingering doubts about your self-worth. And it will get extra loud during the Pluto cazimi (a.k.a. potent conjunction with the Sun) on January 23rd.

These lessons (and plot twists) will keep rolling in during the Aquarius eclipse on February 17th. Don’t make major moves around this time, if you can help it, but do notice what comes up and take notes for later. If you’ve ever avoided checking your budget, resisted charging a price for your talents, or worried about being “enough,” 2026 is your year to confront these feelings head-on. Compost your limiting beliefs, donate what no longer sparks joy, and name any anxieties tied to what you deserve.

Starting April 25th, Uranus will turn your work life upside-down—in a good way. Whether you’re updating your skills, facing a learning curve in a new job, adapting to cutting-edge tech, or gamifying your goals, curiosity and flexibility are your best allies over the coming years.

Your leadership roles will also come up for review around October 25th, when retrograde Venus dips into Libra. You don’t need to reinvent yourself—though you may be tempted—but this is a great moment to rework or reassess your goals. Whatever you choose to do, 2026 is asking you to be bold. By the end of the year, you’ll discover how resourceful and adaptable you can be.

🏺 Aquarius Sun & Rising 2026 Horoscope

Your affirmation: I protect my time, my energy, and my money.
Key dates: 2/25, 3/3, 3/20, 8/27, 10/3

In 2026, you’re wrapping up an old money story and starting a new one. When Mercury (the planet of communication) retrogrades through Pisces between February 25th and March 20th, double-check all your budgets and financial plans.

This attention to detail will prepare you for the Virgo eclipse on March 3rd, which continues a series of plot twists and growth spurts in your approach to sharing resources with others. Beware the tendency to overthink your agreements or overextend yourself for your collaborators. This advice also holds true for the final Pisces eclipse on August 27th. Around this time, strengthen the boundaries that protect what belongs to you, and let your intuition guide you to more meaningful ways of building or circulating wealth.

When Venus (the planet of connection and creativity) stations retrograde in Scorpio on October 3rd, you’re given an opportunity to reassess how you present yourself in your career or leadership roles. This is a powerful moment to clarify who your supporters are and redefine what success means to you. Forget what everyone says you “should” do. Commit to working on what’s personally significant for you. If tricky control issues come up, face them head-on. This process will help you clear the path to your next big milestone.

🐟 Pisces Sun & Rising 2026 Horoscope

Your affirmation: I give my ideas the structure they deserve so they can finally take off.
Key dates: 1/26, 2/13, 2/20, 6/29

Your winning combo for 2026? Equal parts dreaming and discipline. It all starts when Neptune (the planet of illusions and ideals) and Saturn (the planet of limits and boundaries) re-enter Aries on January 26th and February 13th, respectively. These two have been inching closer and closer since 2025, and they’ll finally meet up in an exact conjunction on February 20th. This rare moment will bring your inspiration to an all-time high—and amp up your drive to act on it.

This boost isn’t limited to the beginning of 2026, though; it will carry you through the rest of the year and beyond. So if you’re not achieving a goal as quickly as you’d like, don’t rush through the details or let frustration take over. If things don’t happen overnight, it doesn’t mean your effort isn’t paying off. Once Jupiter (the planet of growth and abundance) enters Leo on June 29th, you’ll have incredible support on your side to expand your work or share your talents with a wider audience. And that gift will last until July 2027. In other words, if there’s an opportunity that might lead to more recognition this year, go for it.
