The climate
The Sun in square challenges you: what is stuck asks for a decision, not patience.
The slow planets this year
Jupiter in Cancer (in square): solar house 4. Jupiter in the 4th house: your home grows, a move or a property purchase becomes possible, and your family backs you.
Jupiter moves in Leo on June 30, 2026: solar house 5. Jupiter in the 5th house: romance, creativity, children, pleasure: the year life becomes a game again, with creative opportunities.
Saturn in Pisces (adjusting): solar house 12. Saturn in the 12th house: withdrawal, reckoning, the end of a cycle; a solitary stretch that prepares Saturn’s arrival on your Ascendant.
Saturn moves in Aries on February 14, 2026: solar house 1. Saturn in the 1st house: you rebuild yourself from the ground up; tiredness at first, then a stronger, more sober version of you.
Love and relationships
Venus in square: watch out for unspoken expectations. What frustrates you today sheds light on what truly matters to you in love. Venus in trine: a very good day for love, reconciliation or a declaration. The heart flows freely.
Work and money
A clear, persuasive mind: Mercury helps you decide and explain. A day of mix-ups: Mercury in square blurs the lines. Say things twice rather than once. Mars in square: irritation and haste are lurking. Slow down a notch and you will avoid the mistake or the clash. Mars in sextile: you move fast and well, especially as a team. A productive day if you set a clear goal. Jupiter in square inflates everything, optimism as much as spending. Keep it measured. A period blessed by Jupiter: things work out for you, especially abroad, in studies or in meaningful projects. Saturn is moving through your sign: a period of maturity and responsibility. What you build now will last for years. Mercury retrograde: reread contracts and messages, back up your files, and prefer picking up an old file to launching a new one.
Energy and body
High energy: your body follows your desires. This is the moment for a workout, a long walk or a big clear-out.
The advice
Everything carries you: dare to make the request, the call or the project close to your heart.
