Asteria · the week, in one read
The loudest thing in your sky this week is dissolution, sitting on your drive and ambition. Day to day, the Moon colors it with a tender, inward pull. Pluto is retrograde, asking you to revisit where power and shadow live.
The day in layers
A quick read of what is loudest today, what else is active, where slow planets are working in your chart, and the longer emotional season underneath.
- Right nowNeptune fuses with your Mars (drive and how you assert): merging directly: intense and hard to ignore
- Season underneathProgressed Moon in Libra: A season turned toward others, when the need is for relationship and balance
2ndhouse year
your profection year
A 2nd-house year · age 37
Annual profections move the spotlight one house each year. At age 37, yours rests on the 2nd house: worth. resources. what is owned. what is valued. the body as instrument.
The sign on that house is Aquarius, so its ruler is your Lord of the Year. Saturn sits in Sagittarius in your 12th house. Wherever the Lord of the Year sits is where this year's story concentrates. And transits to it (below) carry extra weight until your next birthday.
In your chart: the sign on your 2nd-house cusp and its ruler (year lord): where you natally look for security.
the year lord is Saturn: structure, limits, and what must be earned. Saturn transits feel heavier when Saturn steers the year; they are the curriculum, not the punishment.

The sky pivoting
The turns worth marking on your chart: eclipses that supercharge a degree, every new and Full Moon and the house each one lands in, and planets moving in reverse through your houses.
New & Full Moons ahead
Each lunation lands in one of your natal houses: the area of life it opens (new) or brings to a head (full).
- 14 Jul 2026New Moon in 21° CancerBegins in your 6th house · work, health, daily routine. Begin a new habit, a cleaner system, a kinder rhythm for the body.
- 29 Jul 2026Full Moon in 6° AquariusIlluminates your 1st house · Your own self comes to full light: body, image, the person you have been becoming. See how far you have come; release an old self-picture.
- 12 Aug 2026New Moon in 20° LeoBegins in your 8th house · intimacy, shared resources, what is transformed. Begin something that asks for depth and honest trust.
- 28 Aug 2026Full Moon in 4° PiscesIlluminates your 2nd house · A money or self-worth matter reaches its head: a payment, a decision, a reckoning with what you value. Settle it, or let it go.
- 11 Sep 2026New Moon in 18° VirgoBegins in your 9th house · belief, travel, the wider view. Start a study, a journey, a search for meaning beyond the familiar.
- 26 Sep 2026Full Moon in 3° AriesIlluminates your 3rd house · Something said, learned or written reaches completion: a conversation finishes, an idea lands, a last word is spoken.
- 10 Oct 2026New Moon in 17° LibraBegins in your 10th house · career, reputation, your public path. Plant a seed for what you want to be known for.
- 26 Oct 2026Full Moon in 2° TaurusIlluminates your 4th house · A home or family matter culminates: a move, a healing, a shift at the root. Something at the foundation is seen clearly, or released.
Eclipses ahead
Each eclipse supercharges the degree it falls on for months either side. The ones that touch a natal point are the markers worth watching.
- 12 Aug 2026Total/Annular solar eclipse at 20°02′ Leofalls in your 8th house · no tight natal contact
- 28 Aug 2026Partial lunar eclipse at 4°54′ Pisceslands on natal Part of Fortune (opposition, 3.2° orb) · in your 2nd house
- 6 Feb 2027Total/Annular solar eclipse at 17°38′ Aquariusfalls in your 2nd house · no tight natal contact
- 20 Feb 2027Penumbral lunar eclipse at 2°06′ Virgofalls in your 8th house · no tight natal contact
Active retrogrades
Planets moving in reverse right now, framed by the natal house they're passing through. That's the department of your life the rethink is landing in.
Mercury retrograde · in your 6th house
the conversation, the deals, the routes: all under review
Neptune retrograde · in your 3rd house
dreams and dissolutions, turned inward; the fog thins, but only for the part of you that wants to see
Pluto retrograde · in your 1st house
transformation pulled deeper underground; the underworld work continues out of sight
The seven days ahead
What is touching you most right now
The five transits carrying the most weight: major outer-planet contacts to personal points are weighted heaviest, then tightness of orb.
1
Pluto
sextileℹ natal Mars
The feeling
Underneath the ordinary to-do list, you notice what you are actually still angry about, or actually still want. It surfaces calmly, in a quiet moment, not a blowup.
What it is asking
This is Pluto lightly touching your Mars, an easy window into what really drives you beneath the surface motions. It asks you to act from that deeper want just once, in something small, and see how it feels. No confrontation is required.
Gravity & hope
Let one small action come from the real want instead of the polite one. This is depth work with the door held open, not kicked in.
The mechanics, in plain astrology
Transiting Pluto is making a sextile to your natal Mars. Pluto is transformation. Death and rebirth. The function of the underworld. Natal Mars is the engine. The will. The appetite. How action moves out of the body into the world. Through this contact, an open, easy channel runs between them; the cooperation is available, though it asks to be actively used.
How to navigate it
Pluto moves like demolition, compost, a deep dive: let what is false die so what is true can regrow. This is support, not pressure. The energy of Pluto is available to your Mars now. But a harmonious transit rewards what you reach for. Use it deliberately; do not wait for it to act on you. The transit is separating: past its peak; the task now is integrating what it has already surfaced.
2
Neptune
conjunctionℹ natal Mars
The feeling
Your drive feels diffuse and hard to summon. The clear sense of what you want and how to get it dissolves into something foggier. Energy comes and goes like tide. You may feel strangely unmotivated, or pulled toward goals that are more spiritual than concrete.
What it is asking
This is Neptune crossing your Mars, dissolution meeting your will. It asks you to act from inspiration rather than ego, to surrender the need to force outcomes, and to let your drive serve something larger than yourself. The loss of ordinary motivation is redirecting your energy toward the meaningful.
Gravity & hope
Stop pushing the river and let it carry you somewhere truer. This is not the season for brute force, it is the season for inspired, surrendered action. Follow what genuinely moves you, and your energy finds a worthier direction.
The mechanics, in plain astrology
Transiting Neptune is making a conjunction to your natal Mars. Neptune is the function of dissolution. Imagination. The boundary between the personal and the universal. Natal Mars is the engine. The will. The appetite. How action moves out of the body into the world. Through this contact, the two functions are fused into a single blended force; where one moves, the other moves with it.
How to navigate it
Neptune moves like fog rolling in past the edges of a photograph: stop demanding a hard edge where there is a genuine blur, and trust what you sense before you can prove it. Neptune is fused onto your Mars for this passage, colouring that whole function. Author the change consciously rather than being carried by it. The transit is separating: past its peak; the task now is integrating what it has already surfaced.
3
Uranus
sextileℹ natal Mars
The feeling
You want to move, but sideways: try the sport you have never tried, take the route you have never taken, pick the fight you would normally avoid picking. The itch is playful, not desperate.
What it is asking
This is Uranus lightly touching your Mars, an opening to act in an unfamiliar way without real risk. It asks you to spend the extra energy on something genuinely new rather than the usual outlet. The door is open; walking through it is optional and low-stakes.
Gravity & hope
Say yes to the odd impulse. This is a low-pressure window for trying a different kind of action, so use it to widen your range instead of repeating the same move harder.
The mechanics, in plain astrology
Transiting Uranus is making a sextile to your natal Mars. Uranus is the function of awakening. Sudden change. The frequency of the new. Natal Mars is the engine. The will. The appetite. How action moves out of the body into the world. Through this contact, an open, easy channel runs between them; the cooperation is available, though it asks to be actively used.
How to navigate it
Uranus moves like lightning, a firmware update, a plot twist: break the pattern, try the weird angle. This is support, not pressure. The energy of Uranus is available to your Mars now. But a harmonious transit rewards what you reach for. Use it deliberately; do not wait for it to act on you. The transit is still applying: building toward exact, so its strongest pull is ahead of you.
4
Pluto
trineℹ natal Sun
The feeling
This week things feel unusually easy around your sense of who you are, a current moving in your favor.
What it is asking
This is transformation arriving as a gift, the open door of a trine. The only danger is wasting it by coasting. Grace you do not use evaporates. Spend this one on purpose, while the door is open.
The mechanics, in plain astrology
Transiting Pluto is making a trine to your natal Sun. Pluto is transformation. Death and rebirth. The function of the underworld. Natal Sun is the central self. The conscious identity being built across the lifetime. Through this contact, they flow together in natural, unforced agreement. A genuine gift, so smooth it can be taken for granted.
How to navigate it
Pluto moves like demolition, compost, a deep dive: let what is false die so what is true can regrow. This is support, not pressure. The energy of Pluto is available to your Sun now. But a harmonious transit rewards what you reach for. Use it deliberately; do not wait for it to act on you. The transit is separating: past its peak; the task now is integrating what it has already surfaced.
5
Neptune
oppositionℹ natal Sun
The feeling
Other people become screens you project onto, or you find yourself idealizing someone who cannot hold the weight of your dream. Relationships feel charged with longing and confusion, and you are not sure where you end and the fantasy begins.
What it is asking
This is Neptune opposing your Sun, dissolution arriving through relationship. It asks you to see others clearly rather than through the haze of what you wish they were, and to find the difference between spiritual connection and projection. The confusion clears only when you stop casting your dreams onto real people.
Gravity & hope
Love what is actually there, not the screen you painted on it. The opposition teaches discernment through disillusionment. When the projections dissolve, what remains is either real connection or a freedom you needed. Both are gifts.
The mechanics, in plain astrology
Transiting Neptune is making a opposition to your natal Sun. Neptune is the function of dissolution. Imagination. The boundary between the personal and the universal. Natal Sun is the central self. The conscious identity being built across the lifetime. Through this contact, they sit across a polarity, each pulling the other; the work is to hold both ends rather than collapse into one.
How to navigate it
Neptune moves like fog rolling in past the edges of a photograph: stop demanding a hard edge where there is a genuine blur, and trust what you sense before you can prove it. The friction is the point. Neptune is pressure-testing your Sun. Rather than bracing against it, let what is no longer working give way, and rebuild that part of your life on purpose. The transit is separating: past its peak; the task now is integrating what it has already surfaced.
The year ahead
Every transit from Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto that goes exact in the next twelve months: the dates the major influences peak. A planet that hits the same point more than once is crossing back over it in retrograde.
These exact hits are the year's activations: each date marks when a slow planet turns on part of your chart. Transits to your Lord of the Year (Saturn) or your profected 2nd house carry extra weight for the themes of your house year.
