OUTLOOK 2026

‘Abundantly Clear’

Venus/Scorpio is in your area of joint or shared wealth from the second week of September, and set to retrograde on the 2nd October until the middle of November - shortly followed by Mercury towards the end of October and the Sun following its usual trajectory through the sign late October to late November. This places quite some emphasis on the spending, earning and general money juggling you do, or the responsibility you share with others during that period. It makes for the kind of atmosphere which is highly intense, or even overly suspicious, when navigating the minefield between what is wanted and what is strictly necessary. As these planets at that time are in stringent and focused aspect to Scorpio’s ruler, Pluto, there is no easy way to avoid some contentious or intense dives into the nitty-gritty, or the complex details. Things may not be what they seem, and certainty not as plain as the nose on your face. This might be something you are already aware of, and therefore you are prepared or ahead of the curve. Otherwise, think twice about who is in the curve with you and the others - who might be absolutely trustworthy. Some speculation is called for in October as Mars meets Jupiter in Leo in your fifth solar house of progressive splurging, or ideas of simple ‘improvement’. The journey Mars takes through the other fires sign Leo might be fairly short - until the end of November - but the transit of Jupiter is not; it eggs on or endorses all things bigger or more splendid. And until the middle of December is coursing confidently into areas of greater comfort or betterment .. and then it meets little of Mercury again, this time in Sagittarius, the third fire sign, and the pace or message is one of caution through to recklessness. Take stock then at the very least of what is still secure and what might be dimming and dwindling.

‘Experiencing the Flow’

Saturn of course is still transiting your sign of Aries and making some headway to the midst of it, while Neptune has receded back to the early stages. From where it opposes Mercury/Libra in the second week of September. This again points to partnership - though not perhaps in the same way as in the paragraph above, though there may be a link. It requires during September that you liaise closely, or deal diplomatically with facts that are based on the other person’s ability to understand in the right way and from the right perspective. Before the harmonious Venus and the intrepid Mercury go back into Scorpio with the light of the Sun treading doggedly onwards and illuminating corners, as we have mentioned in ‘Abundantly Clear’ above. The second Mercury retrograde in July gave a very personal angle to deeper diving or deliberation. Whilst the planet’s stationary position this Autumn makes it impossible to exclude others concerned in the process, which affects the dynamic long-term. Jupiter in Leo definitely urges braver moves or bolder assessments but these are calling for caution or movable loss adjustment until January next. Many Aries people born in the first decanate of the sign may feel de-motivated or without the usual stamina and drive, and this is no accident. It is an internal braking system, or an innate warning to listen carefully or respectfully to what is being said, and to know when to take things with a pinch of salt or at face value and trust.
