The climate
The Sun neither pushes nor holds you back: the period plays out on the other planets.
The slow planets this year
Jupiter in Cancer (adjusting): solar house 12. Jupiter in the 12th house: quiet protection, a rich inner life, preparation for a new cycle; luck works behind the scenes.
Jupiter moves in Leo on June 30, 2026: solar house 1. Jupiter in the 1st house: a year of personal expansion and renewed confidence, sometimes a few extra pounds; you take up space and people make room for you.
Saturn in Pisces (adjusting): solar house 8. Saturn in the 8th house: debts, taxes, inheritances, intimacy: a clean-up; a period of mourning or serious transformation.
Saturn moves in Aries on February 14, 2026: solar house 9. Saturn in the 9th house: beliefs get tested, advanced studies come to fruition, and life abroad demands paperwork and effort.
Love and relationships
With Venus at home in your sign, your charm is at its peak: take care of yourself, say yes to pleasure, accept the compliments.
Work and money
Mercury in trine: you understand quickly and make yourself understood. Perfect for an important meeting or a signature. Mercury is neutral: exchanges are ordinary, neither eased nor muddled. Energy available and well measured: Mars makes you efficient without wearing you out. Jupiter is staying in your sign this year: opportunities widen, and luck smiles on you when you dare. Saturn supports you: patience pays, and structures hold. 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
The sky is on your side: act fast, and thank generously.
