Jupiter moves like a door propped open wider than you expected: say yes bigger than feels comfortable, then build the structure to hold it.

The loudest thing in your sky this week is expansion, pressing against 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 nowJupiter grinds against your Mars (drive and how you assert): friction: uncomfortable, productive if you work it

A 12th-house year · age 35
Annual profections move the spotlight one house each year. At age 35, yours rests on the 12th house: the hidden. the unconscious. the retreat. the dissolution. the behind-the-scenes life.
The sign on that house is Virgo, so its ruler is your Lord of the Year. Mercury sits in Leo in your 10th 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 12th-house cusp and the year lord: your natal relationship to the hidden.
the year lord is Mercury: messages, contracts, commutes, and the stories you tell. Mercury retrogrades and transits to your natal Mercury are the year's edit passes.

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 10th house · career, reputation, your public path. Plant a seed for what you want to be known for.
- 29 Jul 2026Full Moon in 6° AquariusIlluminates 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.
- 12 Aug 2026New Moon in 20° LeoBegins in your 11th house · friendship, community, the future you are building. Begin something with or for your people.
- 28 Aug 2026Full Moon in 4° PiscesIlluminates your 5th house · A creative work or a romance reaches its peak. Celebrate what has bloomed, or release what has run its natural course.
- 11 Sep 2026New Moon in 18° VirgoBegins in your 12th house · rest, release, the inner life. A quiet New Moon: set an intention to let go and replenish.
- 26 Sep 2026Full Moon in 3° AriesIlluminates your 6th house · A job, a habit or a health effort comes to fruition. Complete it. And shed the routine that no longer serves the body.

- 26 Oct 2026Full Moon in 2° TaurusIlluminates your 8th house · Something deep surfaces into the light: a shared resource, a bond, a buried truth, to be faced, and freed.
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 11th house · no tight natal contact
- 28 Aug 2026Partial lunar eclipse at 4°54′ Piscesfalls in your 5th 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.
the conversation, the deals, the routes: all under review
dreams and dissolutions, turned inward; the fog thins, but only for the part of you that wants to see
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.
You feel invincible, and that is exactly the risk. Confidence outruns caution. You take a swing that is bigger than the situation calls for, push too hard, act before you have fully looked. The energy is real but slightly out of control.
This is Jupiter squaring your Mars, expansion overheating the will. It asks whether your boldness is courage or just adrenaline, and whether you can act decisively without acting rashly. The friction shows up where confidence has become overconfidence.
Channel the surge, do not just ride it. The square is teaching you that bold and reckless are not the same thing. Aim before you swing and that enormous energy actually lands where you want it.
The mechanics, in plain astrology
Transiting Jupiter is making a square to your natal Mars. Jupiter is expansion. Faith. The function of growth and the search for meaning. Natal Mars is the engine. The will. The appetite. How action moves out of the body into the world. Through this contact, they meet at a right angle of friction; the tension is uncomfortable, and it is also one of the strongest engines of growth in the chart.
Jupiter moves like a door propped open wider than you expected: say yes bigger than feels comfortable, then build the structure to hold it. The friction is the point. Jupiter is pressure-testing your Mars. 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.
Your efforts meet intense resistance, power struggles erupt, and anger runs deep and hot. You feel forced to fight for what you want against forces that will not yield, and the temptation toward ruthlessness or rage is strong.
This is Pluto squaring your Mars, friction between your will and the demand for transformation, one of the more combustible transits. It asks whether you can transform your relationship to power and aggression rather than acting it out destructively. The resistance is forcing your drive to mature or to burn.
Do not unleash the force, refine it. The square brings enormous, pressurized energy that becomes either destruction or genuine power depending on how consciously you hold it. Aim it ethically and at something worthy, and it makes you unstoppable.
The mechanics, in plain astrology
Transiting Pluto is making a square 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, they meet at a right angle of friction; the tension is uncomfortable, and it is also one of the strongest engines of growth in the chart.
Pluto moves like demolition, compost, a deep dive: let what is false die so what is true can regrow. The friction is the point. Pluto is pressure-testing your Mars. 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 still applying: building toward exact, so its strongest pull is ahead of you.
You encounter people who challenge your thinking at the deepest level, debates that feel like power struggles, conversations that force you to defend or transform your entire worldview. Someone is pressuring how you think, hard.
This is Pluto opposing your Mercury, the mind transformed through others. It asks you to engage deep, difficult ideas without turning communication into combat, and to let worthy challenges remake your understanding. The opposition brings the conversations that change your mind permanently.
Argue to uncover truth, not to dominate. The opposition transforms your thinking through intense exchange, so let the right challenge reach you. What survives this depth of scrutiny is genuinely, durably yours.
The mechanics, in plain astrology
Transiting Pluto is making a opposition to your natal Mercury. Pluto is transformation. Death and rebirth. The function of the underworld. Natal Mercury is the mind. How thought moves. The bridge between perception and expression. Through this contact, they sit across a polarity, each pulling the other; the work is to hold both ends rather than collapse into one.
Pluto moves like demolition, compost, a deep dive: let what is false die so what is true can regrow. The friction is the point. Pluto is pressure-testing your Mercury. 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.
This week things feel unusually easy around your how you think and speak, a current moving in your favor.
This is dissolution 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 Neptune is making a trine to your natal Mercury. Neptune is the function of dissolution. Imagination. The boundary between the personal and the universal. Natal Mercury is the mind. How thought moves. The bridge between perception and expression. Through this contact, they flow together in natural, unforced agreement. A genuine gift, so smooth it can be taken for granted.
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. This is support, not pressure. The energy of Neptune is available to your Mercury 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.
The mechanics, in plain astrology
Transiting Saturn is making a quincunx to your natal Pluto. Saturn is discipline. Structure. The function of limitation, mastery, and time. Natal Pluto is transformation. Death and rebirth. The function of the underworld. Through this contact, they share no natural relationship and must be consciously adjusted to one another, again and again.
Saturn moves like scaffolding going up around a building mid-renovation: do the unglamorous work now that the future self will thank you for. The friction is the point. Saturn is pressure-testing your Pluto. 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 still applying: building toward exact, so its strongest pull is ahead of you.
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 (Mercury) or your profected 12th house carry extra weight for the themes of your house year.
