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.

10 contacts live against this chart · orb window ±6°
The loudest thing in your sky this week is disruption, pressing against your how you think and speak. 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 nowUranus grinds against your Mercury (mind and how you communicate): friction: uncomfortable, productive if you work it
- Season underneathProgressed Moon in Aquarius: A season of perspective, when the need is for freedom, the unusual, and the collective
A 2nd-house year · age 61
Annual profections move the spotlight one house each year. At age 61, yours rests on the 2nd house: worth. resources. what is owned. what is valued. the body as instrument.
The sign on that house is Capricorn, so its ruler is your Lord of the Year. Saturn (retrograde) sits in Pisces in your 3rd 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 8th house · intimacy, shared resources, what is transformed. Begin something that asks for depth and honest trust.
- 29 Jul 2026Full Moon in 6° AquariusIlluminates 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.
- 12 Aug 2026New Moon in 20° LeoBegins in your 9th house · belief, travel, the wider view. Start a study, a journey, a search for meaning beyond the familiar.
- 28 Aug 2026Full Moon in 4° PiscesIlluminates your 3rd house · Something said, learned or written reaches completion: a conversation finishes, an idea lands, a last word is spoken.
- 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 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.
- 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 5th house · A creative work or a romance reaches its peak. Celebrate what has bloomed, or release what has run its natural course.
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 9th house · no tight natal contact
- 28 Aug 2026Partial lunar eclipse at 4°54′ Pisceslands on natal Mercury (opposition, 0.4° orb) · in your 3rd house

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

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.
The mechanics, in plain astrology
Transiting Neptune is making a quincunx 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 share no natural relationship and must be consciously adjusted to one another, again and again.
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 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.
The mechanics, in plain astrology
Transiting Pluto is making a quincunx 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 share no natural relationship and must be consciously adjusted to one another, again and again.
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 still applying: building toward exact, so its strongest pull is ahead of you.
Your thoughts feel scattered and overstimulated, jumping faster than you can follow. Communication gets disrupted, conversations take sudden turns, your nervous system runs hot. It is hard to hold a single line of thought.
This is Uranus squaring your Mercury, friction in the mind, electric and unsettling. It asks whether your thinking can handle radical new input without short-circuiting, and where your mental habits have grown too rigid. The overstimulation is forcing a mental upgrade.
Slow the current enough to use it. The square brings brilliant, chaotic mental energy, so give it structure before it scatters. The new way of thinking trying to break through is worth the temporary static.
The mechanics, in plain astrology
Transiting Uranus is making a square to your natal Mercury. Uranus is the function of awakening. Sudden change. The frequency of the new. Natal Mercury is the mind. How thought moves. The bridge between perception and expression. 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.
Uranus moves like lightning, a firmware update, a plot twist: break the pattern, try the weird angle. The friction is the point. Uranus 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 still applying: building toward exact, so its strongest pull is ahead of you.
Love feels abundant and easy. You feel attractive, generous, drawn toward beauty and pleasure. Relationships warm, money may flow, and the world tilts toward enjoyment. This is one of the sweet ones.
This is Jupiter crossing your Venus, expansion meeting love and worth. It asks you to open your heart and your sense of what you deserve, to receive abundance in love and value. The only caution is overindulgence, in pleasure, in spending, in love that is more flattering than true.
Enjoy this fully, with your eyes open. The abundance is real, so receive it, but aim your generous heart at what is actually worthy of it. Love and pleasure expanded on purpose is a genuine gift.
The mechanics, in plain astrology
Transiting Jupiter is making a conjunction to your natal Venus. Jupiter is expansion. Faith. The function of growth and the search for meaning. Natal Venus is the function of love. What is valued. How beauty is recognized and pleasure is received. Through this contact, the two functions are fused into a single blended force; where one moves, the other moves with it.
Jupiter moves like a door propped open wider than you expected: say yes bigger than feels comfortable, then build the structure to hold it. Jupiter is fused onto your Venus 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.
Your emotions feel compulsive and intense, old patterns grip hard, and your sense of security is under deep pressure. Feelings you thought were resolved come back with force, often through family or the places you go for safety.
This is Pluto squaring your Moon, friction in the emotional depths. It asks whether your inner life can transform rather than just repeat, and where old emotional patterns still secretly run you. The intensity is forcing buried material up so it can finally be dealt with.
Face what keeps resurfacing instead of burying it again. The square is excavating old emotional patterns precisely so you can be free of them. Do the deep work now, and the compulsions that have run you for years finally loosen their grip.
The mechanics, in plain astrology
Transiting Pluto is making a square to your natal Moon. Pluto is transformation. Death and rebirth. The function of the underworld. Natal Moon is the inner emotional body. The firmware running before consciousness boots up. 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 Moon. 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.
