Virgo is astrology’s eternal hub of mildness and modesty. The mutable earth sign is known for its quiet dedication and its measured, unassuming character. But in 2026, its Sun cycle will see the onset of a struggle between the head and the heart, one likely to intensify and last well into autumn. In one corner, […]

Sun Into Leo 2026: Playing With Fire
Sign changes are ahead for Mercury, Venus, Mars and the lunar Nodes.

Sun Into Cancer 2026: Coming In Hot
Sign changes for Venus, Mars and Jupiter are on the way, as are retrograde starts for Mercury and Neptune. The ingresses of Mars and Jupiter in particular, into Gemini and Leo respectively, are key.

Sun Into Gemini 2026: Never A Dull Moment
If variety is the spice of life, then the incoming Sun cycle is sure to delight the insatiable curiosity of astrology’s Twins.

Sun Into Taurus 2026: No Backsies
The Sun’s 2026 visit to placid Taurus will be much louder than usual. At the outset, Mars and Saturn will conjoin ahead of the Sun’s April 19th entrance, and on the 20th, the two malefics will connect with shrewd Mercury, who leans towards his more sinister side when hanging out with astrology’s bad boys. The […]

Sun Into Pisces 2026: Resilience
026 began under Capricorn skies, with emphasis from Mercury, who entered the ambitious, serious sign on January 1st.

Those alignments gave the year’s start a frenetic, and possibly overwhelming, feel. The Sun’s coming journey through gentle, holistic Pisces […]
Sun Into Aquarius 2026: Cosmic Initiation
When taking a bird’s-eye view of 2026, February, April and July stand out as the year’s hotspots. Describing the events of those months as volcanic would not be an exaggeration.

Winter 2026 Overview
The Sun’s entrance into Aquarius on January 19th is a portal into the essence of 2026.

Before then, Pluto’s […]
Sun Into Capricorn 2025-26: Pragmatic Passion
On December 15th, adventuring Mars quietly moved into ambitious Capricorn, where it will remain until January 23rd.
