Asteria · the week, in one read
The loudest thing in your sky this week is transformation, 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 nowPluto grinds against your Mercury (mind and how you communicate): friction: uncomfortable, productive if you work it
- Where it landsPluto in your 3rd house (many years): transforms from the root daily mind, communication, and immediate world
- Where it landsUranus in your 7th house (about seven years): disrupts and rewires partnerships and close relationships
- Season underneathProgressed Moon in Taurus: A season of settling, when the need is for security, comfort, and steadiness
1sthouse year
your profection year
A 1st-house year · age 156
Annual profections move the spotlight one house each year. At age 156, yours rests on the 1st house: the body. the mask. the threshold. the way you arrive.
The sign on that house is Scorpio, so its ruler is your Lord of the Year. Mars sits in Scorpio in your 1st 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 1st-house cusp: its element and modality tell you the costume this year wants you to wear.
the year lord is Mars: drive, conflict, heat, and surgery. Mars transits, returns, and retrogrades time the fights worth having and the energy you must spend.

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 9th house · belief, travel, the wider view. Start a study, a journey, a search for meaning beyond the familiar.
- 29 Jul 2026Full Moon in 6° AquariusIlluminates your 3rd house · Something said, learned or written reaches completion: a conversation finishes, an idea lands, a last word is spoken.
- 12 Aug 2026New Moon in 20° LeoBegins in your 10th house · career, reputation, your public path. Plant a seed for what you want to be known for.
- 28 Aug 2026Full Moon in 4° PiscesIlluminates 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.
- 11 Sep 2026New Moon in 18° VirgoBegins in your 11th house · friendship, community, the future you are building. Begin something with or for your people.
- 26 Sep 2026Full Moon in 3° AriesIlluminates your 5th house · A creative work or a romance reaches its peak. Celebrate what has bloomed, or release what has run its natural course.
- 10 Oct 2026New Moon in 17° LibraBegins in your 12th house · rest, release, the inner life. A quiet New Moon: set an intention to let go and replenish.
- 26 Oct 2026Full Moon in 2° TaurusIlluminates 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.
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′ Leolands on natal Moon (conjunction, 0.5° orb) · in your 10th house
- 28 Aug 2026Partial lunar eclipse at 4°54′ Piscesfalls in your 4th house · no tight natal contact
- 6 Feb 2027Total/Annular solar eclipse at 17°38′ Aquariuslands on natal Moon (opposition, 2.9° orb) · in your 4th house
- 20 Feb 2027Penumbral lunar eclipse at 2°06′ Virgofalls in your 10th 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 9th house
the conversation, the deals, the routes: all under review
Neptune retrograde · in your 5th house
dreams and dissolutions, turned inward; the fog thins, but only for the part of you that wants to see
Pluto retrograde · in your 3rd house
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.
1
Uranus
quincunxℹ natal Mercury
The mechanics, in plain astrology
Transiting Uranus is making a quincunx 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 share no natural relationship and must be consciously adjusted to one another, again and again.
How to navigate it
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 separating: past its peak; the task now is integrating what it has already surfaced.
2
Neptune
quincunxℹ natal Mercury
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.
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 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.
3
Pluto
squareℹ natal Mercury
The feeling
Your thinking feels pressured and compulsive, fixated on certain thoughts you cannot release. Conversations turn into power struggles, and you encounter information or truths that force you to reconsider things you held as settled.
What it is asking
This is Pluto squaring your Mercury, friction in the mind, intense and transformative. It asks whether your thinking can undergo deep revision rather than defending its old positions, and where you use words for control. The mental pressure is forcing an honest reckoning with how and what you think.
Gravity & hope
Let the obsessive thought lead you to the truth under it, then let it go. The square transforms your mind by refusing to let it stay shallow or fixed. What you are forced to reconsider now upgrades how you understand everything.
The mechanics, in plain astrology
Transiting Pluto is making a square 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 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.
How to navigate it
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.
4
Jupiter
squareℹ natal Mercury
The feeling
You promise more than you can deliver, or your ideas outrun your capacity to execute them. Enthusiasm makes you say yes too fast, and the details you skipped come back to find you.
What it is asking
This is Jupiter squaring your Mercury, expansion testing your thinking. It asks whether your big ideas have substance or are just exciting. The friction shows up where optimism has outpaced accuracy.
Gravity & hope
Dream big on paper, then check the paper. The square is teaching you to ground vision in detail. The ideas are good. They just need the discipline to become real.
The mechanics, in plain astrology
Transiting Jupiter is making a square to your natal Mercury. Jupiter is expansion. Faith. The function of growth and the search for meaning. 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.
How to navigate 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. The friction is the point. Jupiter 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.
5
Moon
squareℹ natal Sun
The feeling
This week there is friction around your sense of who you are, the kind that will not let you settle.
What it is asking
This is feeling arriving as pressure, the square that forces a choice. It feels like an obstacle and it is actually an engine. The discomfort is pointing at the exact place growth is being demanded. Lean in where you want to flinch.
The mechanics, in plain astrology
Transiting Moon is making a square to your natal Sun. Moon is the inner emotional body. The firmware running before consciousness boots up. Natal Sun is the central self. The conscious identity being built across the lifetime. 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.
How to navigate it
Moon moves like a tide that rises and falls in the same day: feel it fully, then let the water recede. The friction is the point. Moon 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 (Mars) or your profected 1st house carry extra weight for the themes of your house year.
