As the planets move in 2026, they bring fresh energies for everyone. Discover the detailed Vedic Astrology forecasts for your Moon Sign (Rasi) below, covering health, money, career, and relationships.
Select Your Rasi
Your 2026 is defined by a major conflict between income and expenses. The primary challenge is a year-long negative Saturn in your 12th house, creating high expenses and financial pressure. This is amplified by a negative Ketu in your 5th house, which can create anxiety and block your plans. Your one major advantage is a year-long positive Rahu in your 11th house, ensuring a strong and steady income. The year's story is about money coming in (Rahu) but being drained by expenses (Saturn) and flawed plans (Ketu). Jupiter offers no help for the first ten months, as its negative transits in your 3rd and 4th houses only add to your stress.
The Good News:
- Money & Career: Your income from Rahu is strong all year. Mars provides a boost from February 22 to April 1 (11th house) and August 1 to September 17 (3rd house), making these peak times for new gains and efforts.
Challenging Areas:
- Health & Finances: Be cautious from January 1 to October 21. With Saturn, Jupiter, and Ketu all negative, you are exposed to stress and loss.
- Love & Planning: The final quarter, from October 21, is complex. Jupiter turns positive (+) in your 5th house, but Ketu is already there with a negative (-) influence. This is not clear relief. You will feel an urge to expand and plan (Jupiter) but will face simultaneous anxiety, blocks, or issues with children (Ketu). Do not treat this as a simple "green light".
Key Planetary influences for you this year (for Aries):
- Saturn: In Pisces (12th House)
- Jupiter: Starts in Gemini (3rd House); moves to Cancer (4th House) on May 26; moves to Leo (5th House) on Oct 21.
- Mars: Transits Sagittarius (9th) through Leo (5th).
- Rahu: In Aquarius (11th House)
- Ketu: In Leo (5th House)
Your Astrological guidance:
Your year centres on managing the gap between what comes in and what goes out. Income will flow steadily, but so will demands on it. Begin by creating a clear picture of your financial position. Do not assume surplus; plan for pressure.
The early months require caution with partnerships and large commitments. This is not the time for bold financial moves or binding agreements. Wait until the middle of the year before locking anything in. Relationships also need attention before June; small frictions can grow if left unaddressed.
Late February through early April, and again in late summer, offer windows where effort converts more directly into gain. Use these periods for career-focused action. Outside these windows, conserve energy and resources.
The final quarter brings complexity. New opportunities may appear, but they will not be straightforward. Observe carefully before committing. Overall, let discipline with money and patience with people guide your decisions through the year.
This is a very strong year for your professional life. You have two major positive transits for the entire year: Saturn in your 11th (gains) and Rahu in your 10th (career). This is a very favorable combination for advancement and achieving your ambitions. Your primary challenge is a year-long negative Ketu in your 4th house, which creates persistent stress or unhappiness at home. Your public life will be strong, but your private life will need management.
The Good News:
- Money & Career: Your peak window is January 1 to May 26. During this time, Jupiter is also positive in your 2nd house (wealth), creating a "triple positive" for financial success. This is your time to lock in promotions and secure gains.
- Gains & Initiatives: Mars is positive from Start to January 15 (8th house), April 1 to May 10 (11th house), and September 17 to November 10 (3rd house).
Challenging Areas:
- Personal Life: The dynamic shifts after May 26, when Jupiter turns negative for the rest of the year.
- Home Life (Peak): The period from October 21 is very difficult. Jupiter turns negative (-) in your 4th house, where Ketu is already negative (-). This "double negative" transit can bring significant domestic conflict, property issues, or a deep sense of unhappiness.
Key Planetary influences for you this year (for Taurus):
- Saturn: In Pisces (11th House)
- Jupiter: Starts in Gemini (2nd House); moves to Cancer (3rd House) on May 26; moves to Leo (4th House) on Oct 21.
- Mars: Transits Sagittarius (8th) through Leo (4th).
- Rahu: In Aquarius (10th House)
- Ketu: In Leo (4th House)
Your Astrological guidance:
This year rewards professional ambition, but requires acceptance of tension at home. Ground yourself in the reality that outer success and inner peace may not align. Knowing this in advance allows you to make conscious trade-offs rather than being caught off guard.
The first five months are your strongest window for career advancement. Move decisively during this period. Seek promotions, close deals, and secure gains while conditions support you. Do not delay important professional moves into the second half of the year.
From mid-year onwards, shift your attention inward. Domestic matters will demand more energy. Property decisions, family dynamics, or simply the atmosphere at home may become strained. This is a phase to manage, not to fight. Patience and presence will serve you better than attempts to control.
The final quarter intensifies home-related challenges. Avoid major domestic decisions during this time if possible. Hold steady, maintain routines, and allow difficult periods to pass without overreacting. Your professional gains from earlier in the year will provide stability.
This is a very challenging year, and your chart is in a defensive position. You face a difficult "double negative" transit for the entire year from Saturn (10th) and Rahu (9th). This creates significant, persistent pressure on your career and blocks your general luck. You will have to work much harder for results. Your only stable positive influence is Ketu in your 3rd house, which provides courage but also means you must rely on yourself, not external help. Jupiter is also negative at the start of the year.
The Good News:
- Money & Career: Your only window of relief is May 26 to October 21. During this time, Jupiter moves to a positive transit in your 2nd house. This is a lifeline for your finances and stability.
- Gains & Initiatives: Mars is positive from January 15 to February 22 (8th house), May 10 to June 19 (11th house), and November 10 onwards (3rd house).
Challenging Areas:
- Career & Health: The period from January 1 to May 26 is the hardest, as Saturn, Jupiter, and Rahu are all in negative transits.
- Initiatives: The final quarter, from October 21, is mixed. Jupiter turns negative (-) in your 3rd house, but Ketu is already there with a positive (+) influence. This means you will have the courage to act (Ketu), but you will simultaneously face blocks, miscalculations, and frustration in your efforts (Jupiter).
Key Planetary influences for you this year (for Gemini):
- Saturn: In Pisces (10th House)
- Jupiter: Starts in Gemini (1st House); moves to Cancer (2nd House) on May 26; moves to Leo (3rd House) on Oct 21.
- Mars: Transits Sagittarius (7th) through Leo (3rd).
- Rahu: In Aquarius (9th House)
- Ketu: In Leo (3rd House)
Your Astrological guidance:
This year asks you to accept a defensive posture. Progress will require more effort than usual, and results may come slowly. Anchor yourself in this understanding early, so that setbacks do not destabilise you. Self-reliance will be your primary resource.
The first five months are the most constrained. Protect your position at work without taking unnecessary risks. Avoid initiating major changes or confrontations. This is a time to maintain, not to expand. Guard your financial reserves carefully.
From late May through mid-October, conditions ease. Use this window to stabilise your finances and build a buffer. Any gains made during this period should be saved, not spent. Treat this phase as preparation for what follows.
The final quarter brings mixed signals. You may feel the urge to act decisively, but frustrations and miscalculations are likely. Move cautiously. Verify assumptions before committing. The courage to act is present, but clarity may not be. Wait for confirmation before making significant moves.
This year, your strength comes from hidden support, but your finances are a key weak point. The main challenge is a negative Saturn in your 9th house, which can block luck and delay your plans. This is amplified by a year-long negative Ketu in your 2nd house, putting persistent, direct pressure on your finances and family. Your strategic advantage is a positive Rahu in your 8th house, which provides unexpected support. Jupiter is also negative for the first ten months, first in your 12th (high expenses) and then your 1st (personal stress).
The Good News:
- Career & Health: Mars brings a period of gains from June 19 to August 1 (11th house) and is positive for health from Start to January 15 (6th house) and February 22 to April 1 (8th house).
Challenging Areas:
- Finances: The period from January 1 to October 21 is very difficult. Jupiter's 12th-house transit and Ketu's 2nd-house transit create a "double negative" for money.
- Money (Mixed): The final quarter, from October 21, is complex. Jupiter turns positive (+) in your 2nd house, but Ketu is there with a negative (-) influence. This is not a simple windfall. You will have opportunities for wealth (Jupiter), but they will come with sudden drains, conflicts, or family issues (Ketu).
Key Planetary influences for you this year (for Cancer):
- Saturn: In Pisces (9th House)
- Jupiter: Starts in Gemini (12th House); moves to Cancer (1st House) on May 26; moves to Leo (2nd House) on Oct 21.
- Mars: Transits Sagittarius (6th) through Leo (2nd).
- Rahu: In Aquarius (8th House)
- Ketu: In Leo (2nd House)
Your Astrological guidance:
This year places finances at the centre of your attention. Money will feel constrained, and plans may face delays. Accept this as the baseline reality, and build your approach around careful management rather than expansion. Support may come from unexpected directions; remain open to unconventional solutions.
From January through October, maintain strict control over your budget. Avoid large purchases, new debts, or financial risks. This extended period requires discipline. Small, consistent efforts to reduce outflow will compound over time.
The summer months, particularly late June through July, offer a window for gains and health improvements. Focus your energy here. Career-related efforts during this period are more likely to bear fruit.
The final quarter presents opportunities, but they will not be clean. Gains may arrive alongside family tensions or hidden costs. Do not treat incoming money as straightforward. Plan for complexity. What appears as a windfall may require careful handling. Steady observation will reveal what is real and what is not.
This is a year of two distinct halves, defined by a serious underlying challenge. The year-long problem is a "double negative" from Rahu (7th) and Ketu (1st). This puts constant stress on your key partnerships (business and personal) and on your personal health and well-being. However, the year starts in a peak phase. Until May 26, Jupiter is positive in your 11th (gains), and Saturn is positive in your 8th (overcoming obstacles). This is a powerful combination for "smash and grab" victories.
The Good News:
- Money & Career: Your one "golden window" is January 1 to May 26. With both Jupiter and Saturn positive, this is your time to make money and win against competitors.
- Gains & Health: Mars is positive from January 15 to February 22 (6th house), April 1 to May 10 (8th house), and August 1 to September 17 (11th house).
Challenging Areas:
- Love, Health & Money: The entire dynamic flips after May 26. Jupiter turns negative for the rest of the year.
- Health (Peak): The period from October 21 is very difficult. Jupiter turns negative (-) in your 1st house, where Ketu is already negative (-). This "double negative" transit is a "red alert" for your personal health, vitality, and mental stress.
Key Planetary influences for you this year (for Leo):
- Saturn: In Pisces (8th House)
- Jupiter: Starts in Gemini (11th House); moves to Cancer (12th House) on May 26; moves to Leo (1st House) on Oct 21.
- Mars: Transits Sagittarius (5th) through Leo (1st).
- Rahu: In Aquarius (7th House)
- Ketu: In Leo (1st House)
Your Astrological guidance:
This year divides into two distinct phases, and your approach must shift accordingly. Begin with clarity about this structure: the first half supports action, the second half requires restraint. Knowing when to change gears is essential.
Until late May, pursue your goals with focus and energy. This is your window for financial gains and professional advancement. Overcome obstacles, close deals, and secure what matters. Do not hesitate or delay during this period. What you achieve now will sustain you later.
From June onwards, shift from offence to defence. New initiatives will struggle to gain traction. Instead, consolidate what you have built. Pay attention to partnerships, which may show strain throughout the year. Relationship tensions need acknowledgment, not avoidance.
The final quarter demands particular care for your health and well-being. Physical and mental strain may peak during this period. Maintain routines, prioritise rest, and avoid pushing through exhaustion. This is a time to protect yourself, not to prove yourself. Let the earlier wins carry you through.
This is a mixed year with one outstanding window of opportunity. Your year-long strategic advantage is a positive Rahu in your 6th house, which is very good for defeating competition and overcoming obstacles. Your year-long challenges are a negative Saturn (7th), which tests your partnerships, and a negative Ketu (12th), which can create high expenses and mental anxiety. Jupiter is also negative at the start and end of the year, adding to the pressure.
The Good News:
- Money & Career: Your peak window is May 26 to October 21. Jupiter moves to a positive transit in your 11th house (gains). This, combined with your strong 6th-house Rahu, makes it a strong period for winning contracts, getting promoted over rivals, and seeing a surge in your income.
- Health: Rahu (6th) is a strong positive all year. Mars adds to this from February 22 to April 1 (6th house) and May 10 to June 19 (8th house).
- Gains: Mars is also positive in your 11th from September 17 to November 10.
Challenging Areas:
- Love & Career: The start of the year (January 1 - May 26).
- Finances & Health: The final quarter, from October 21, is very difficult. Jupiter turns negative (-) in your 12th house, where Ketu is already negative (-). This "double negative" transit can bring significant unexpected expenses, losses, or a sharp increase in anxiety.
Key Planetary influences for you this year (for Virgo):
- Saturn: In Pisces (7th House)
- Jupiter: Starts in Gemini (10th House); moves to Cancer (11th House) on May 26; moves to Leo (12th House) on Oct 21.
- Mars: Transits Sagittarius (4th) through Leo (12th).
- Rahu: In Aquarius (6th House)
- Ketu: In Leo (12th House)
Your Astrological guidance:
Your year has one outstanding window, and your task is to use it wisely while preparing for what follows. Ground yourself in steady effort throughout, knowing that competition and obstacles can be overcome through persistence. Your capacity to out-work challenges is a genuine strength this year.
The early months may test your partnerships. Approach relationship friction with patience rather than force. These tensions can be navigated, but not by demanding resolution. Let time and consistent behaviour rebuild trust where needed.
From late May through mid-October, conditions strongly favour career advancement and income growth. This is your primary opportunity. Pursue promotions, win contracts, and build financial reserves. Save aggressively during this period. What you set aside now will matter later.
The final quarter brings increased expenses and potential anxiety. Avoid new financial commitments from October onwards. This is not a time to extend yourself. Draw on the reserves you built earlier, and let the period pass without making decisions under pressure. Clarity will return.
This is a very strong and favourable year. You have two powerful, positive transits all year: Saturn in your 6th (defeating obstacles) and Ketu in your 11th (steady gains). This provides a strong foundation for success. The only year-long weak point is a negative Rahu (5th), which can create anxiety about your plans. Jupiter is also positive for the first five months and the final two months, giving you two distinct windows for action. This is a year to be proactive.
The Good News:
- Money, Career & Health: You have two peak windows. January 1 to May 26, with Jupiter (9th), Saturn (6th), and Ketu (11th) all positive, is very favorable for new projects, travel, and overcoming challenges.
- Money (Peak): The second window, October 21 to December 31, is even better for money. Jupiter moves to your 11th house, where Ketu is already positive. This "double positive" (+ and +) transit is the strongest window of the year for financial returns.
- Initiatives: Mars is positive from Start to January 15 (3rd house) and November 10 onwards (11th house).
- Health: Saturn 6th is a positive for health all year. Mars adds to this from April 1 to May 10 (6th) and June 19 to August 1 (8th).
Challenging Areas:
- Career: Your only "dip" is the middle period, May 26 to October 21. Jupiter turns negative in your 10th house, bringing significant career pressure and obstacles.
Key Planetary influences for you this year (for Libra):
- Saturn: In Pisces (6th House)
- Jupiter: Starts in Gemini (9th House); moves to Cancer (10th House) on May 26; moves to Leo (11th House) on Oct 21.
- Mars: Transits Sagittarius (3rd) through Leo (11th).
- Rahu: In Aquarius (5th House)
- Ketu: In Leo (11th House)
Your Astrological guidance:
This year offers favourable conditions, but requires you to manage your own mind. Anxiety about plans and outcomes may surface even when circumstances are supportive. Recognise this pattern early, and do not let internal doubts override external reality. Your foundation is stronger than it may feel.
The first five months support new projects, travel, and forward momentum. Use this period to launch initiatives and build on your strengths. Obstacles can be overcome through steady effort. Do not wait for perfect conditions; act while support is present.
The middle of the year brings career pressure. This is a testing phase, not a permanent shift. Prepare contingency plans, but do not abandon your direction. Hold steady through professional challenges without making reactive decisions. This period will pass.
The final quarter rewards your patience. Financial returns strengthen significantly during this time. What you endured in the middle months now pays off. Approach this period with openness to receive, while maintaining the discipline that brought you here. End the year by consolidating gains, not chasing more.
This is a difficult year with one crucial window of relief. You face two year-long negative transits: Saturn in your 5th (anxiety, planning issues) and Ketu in your 10th (career blocks). This creates persistent professional stress. Your one stable support is a positive Rahu in your 4th house, which helps maintain your domestic peace. The year also starts and ends with Jupiter in a negative transit, adding to the feeling of being stuck.
The Good News:
- Career, Travel & Luck: Your only positive window is May 26 to October 21. During this time, Jupiter moves to your 9th house (luck). This transit will temporarily break the blockages from Saturn and Ketu, bringing solutions and opportunities.
- Initiatives: Mars is positive from January 15 to February 22 (3rd house).
- Health: Mars supports you from May 10 to June 19 (6th house) and August 1 to September 17 (8th house).
Challenging Areas:
- Career & Health: The start of the year (January 1 - May 26) is very tough as Jupiter, Saturn, and Ketu are all negative.
- Career (Peak): The final quarter, from October 21, is extremely difficult for your career. Jupiter turns negative (-) in your 10th house, where Ketu is already negative (-). This "double negative" transit can bring career gridlock, a loss of status, or major conflicts with authority.
Key Planetary influences for you this year (for Scorpio):
- Saturn: In Pisces (5th House)
- Jupiter: Starts in Gemini (8th House); moves to Cancer (9th House) on May 26; moves to Leo (10th House) on Oct 21.
- Mars: Transits Sagittarius (2nd) through Leo (10th).
- Rahu: In Aquarius (4th House)
- Ketu: In Leo (10th House)
Your Astrological guidance:
This year asks you to find stability at home while navigating persistent professional pressure. Your domestic life can serve as a foundation; invest in family relationships and home environment as sources of grounding. When work feels stuck, return to what is stable.
The early months require caution at work. Avoid bold career moves or confrontations with authority during this period. The environment does not support risk-taking. Maintain your position without drawing unnecessary attention. This is a phase to endure, not to fight.
From late May through mid-October, conditions improve. This is your window for meaningful professional and personal decisions. Act during this period on matters that have been waiting. Solutions become visible, and movement becomes possible. Do not waste this time.
The final quarter returns to difficulty, particularly regarding career. Adopt a defensive posture at work. Avoid conflicts with authority and do not initiate major changes. Ride out this period by focusing on what you can control, and let time bring better conditions. Patience is not passivity; it is discernment about when to act.
This is a year of sharp ups and downs. Your year-long challenges are a negative Saturn (4th), creating domestic pressure, and a negative Ketu (9th), which blocks your luck and higher guidance. Your one stable advantage is a positive Rahu (3rd), which gives you the courage to push through. The year is defined by Jupiter's movements, which is positive at the start but very negative in the middle.
The Good News:
- Love & Partnership: January 1 to May 26. Jupiter is positive in your 7th house, very favorable for alliances, contracts, and relationships.
- Initiatives: Mars is positive in your 3rd house from February 22 to April 1.
- Health: Mars is positive from June 19 to August 1 (6th) and September 17 to November 10 (8th).
Challenging Areas:
- Health & Finances: The middle of the year, May 26 to October 21, is very difficult. Jupiter moves to your 8th house, joining Saturn and Ketu in a "triple negative" setup. You must be extremely careful with your health, avoid all risks, and expect sudden obstacles during this time.
- Travel & Luck: The final quarter, from October 21, is complex. Jupiter turns positive (+) in your 9th house, but Ketu is there with a negative (-) influence. You will get opportunities (Jupiter), but they will be flawed, blocked, or come with a hidden problem (Ketu). Be very careful with new "lucky" breaks—they are not what they seem.
Key Planetary influences for you this year (for Sagittarius):
- Saturn: In Pisces (4th House)
- Jupiter: Starts in Gemini (7th House); moves to Cancer (8th House) on May 26; moves to Leo (9th House) on Oct 21.
- Mars: Transits Sagittarius (1st) through Leo (9th).
- Rahu: In Aquarius (3rd House)
- Ketu: In Leo (9th House)
Your Astrological guidance:
This year moves through sharp contrasts. Prepare yourself mentally for both opportunity and difficulty, each in their season. Your courage and willingness to push through will be valuable, but must be applied with discernment about timing.
The first five months favour partnerships, alliances, and relationships. Use this period to strengthen important connections, formalise agreements, and build collaborative foundations. What you establish now will matter when conditions become harder.
The middle of the year, from late May through mid-October, is genuinely difficult. Health and finances require extreme caution. Avoid risks, postpone major decisions, and expect sudden obstacles. This is a period to contract, not expand. Preserve your resources and energy. Do not fight the conditions; wait them out.
The final quarter appears to bring relief, but requires skepticism. Opportunities may present themselves as fortunate breaks, yet carry hidden complications. Verify thoroughly before committing to anything new. What looks like luck may not be what it seems. Slow down, observe patterns, and trust only what you can confirm.
This is a mixed year, but you are well-armed. You have two major positive transits for the entire year: Saturn in your 3rd (courage) and Ketu in your 8th (overcoming obstacles). This is a strong, resilient combination. Your primary challenge is a year-long negative Rahu in your 2nd house, which puts constant pressure on your finances and family. The year starts and ends with Jupiter in a negative transit, adding to the burden.
The Good News:
- Love, Partnership & Career: Your only window of broad relief is May 26 to October 21. During this time, Jupiter moves to a positive transit in your 7th house. This is your lifeline, bringing support from a partner and new business opportunities.
- Initiatives: Saturn in the 3rd is strong all year. Mars adds to this from April 1 to May 10 (3rd house).
- Health: Ketu (8th) is a strong positive all year. Mars adds to this from August 1 to September 17 (6th) and November 10 onwards (8th).
Challenging Areas:
- Finances: The start of the year (January 1 - May 26) is tough, with Jupiter and Rahu both negative.
- Health: The final quarter, from October 21, is complex. Jupiter turns negative (-) in your 8th house, but Ketu is there with a positive (+) influence. This is a "pull-pull" transit. You will have the power to overcome obstacles (Ketu), but you will also be blindsided by new, unexpected problems (Jupiter).
Key Planetary influences for you this year (for Capricorn):
- Saturn: In Pisces (3rd House)
- Jupiter: Starts in Gemini (6th House); moves to Cancer (7th House) on May 26; moves to Leo (8th House) on Oct 21.
- Mars: Transits Sagittarius (12th) through Leo (8th).
- Rahu: In Aquarius (2nd House)
- Ketu: In Leo (8th House)
Your Astrological guidance:
You enter this year with genuine inner resources: courage and the capacity to overcome obstacles. These qualities will be tested by persistent financial pressure. Accept this dynamic from the start. Your strength lies not in avoiding difficulty, but in meeting it with resilience.
The early months require strict financial discipline. Budget tightly and avoid new financial commitments. The pressure on money and family matters is real. Do not ignore it or hope it resolves itself. Active management is required.
From late May through mid-October, partnerships become your lifeline. Business collaborations, relationship support, and new alliances offer genuine help during this window. Invest in these connections. They will provide stability when other areas feel constrained.
The final quarter presents a mixed picture. You will have the power to overcome specific challenges, yet new problems may emerge as old ones resolve. Do not expect permanent resolution. Approach this period with steady effort rather than triumphalism. What appears solved may reveal new layers. Remain adaptable and continue the work.
This is a dynamic and conflicting year. Your primary challenge is a year-long negative Saturn in your 2nd house, putting constant pressure on your finances. Your strategic advantage is a positive Rahu in your 1st house, putting you in focus. However, this is balanced by a negative Ketu in your 7th house, creating conflict and stress in your most important relationships. This is the year's main conflict: your personal drive (Rahu 1st) will be at odds with your partners (Ketu 7th).
The Good News:
- Career & Planning: You have one positive window from January 1 to May 26, with Jupiter in your 5th. This is very favorable for smart planning.
- Money & Initiatives: Mars is positive in your 11th house from Start to January 15, your 3rd from May 10 to June 19, and your 6th from September 17 to November 10.
Challenging Areas:
- Health & Finances: The middle of the year, May 26 to October 21. Jupiter moves to a negative transit in your 6th house. This will be the time of maximum financial and health stress.
- Love & Partnership: The final quarter, from October 21, is extremely complex. Jupiter turns positive (+) in your 7th house, but Ketu is there with a negative (-) influence. You will have opportunities for partnership (Jupiter) that are simultaneously flawed or destined for separation (Ketu). Be very cautious with new relationships.
Key Planetary influences for you this year (for Aquarius):
- Saturn: In Pisces (2nd House)
- Jupiter: Starts in Gemini (5th House); moves to Cancer (6th House) on May 26; moves to Leo (7th House) on Oct 21.
- Mars: Transits Sagittarius (11th) through Leo (7th).
- Rahu: In Aquarius (1st House)
- Ketu: In Leo (7th House)
Your Astrological guidance:
Begin the year by anchoring yourself. The first five months are best used to create clarity, not noise. Use this period to define what you truly want to advance, and why. When the mind is clear, decisive action follows naturally. Focus on strengthening your personal position, your credibility, and your sense of direction. This is the right time to take responsibility for your path and make firm, well-considered moves.
As the year moves into the middle phase, expect strain rather than expansion. This is not a failure period; it is a testing one. Financial pressure and reduced physical resilience may arise together, which can cloud judgement. Respond by simplifying life. Reduce commitments, control expenses, and protect your health with routine and restraint. The aim here is stability, not progress.
Toward the end of the year, slow your emotional responses, especially with new relationships or partnerships. What appears supportive may not yet be reliable. Give yourself time to observe patterns rather than promises. Quiet evaluation will protect you from later disappointment.
Overall, act early with clarity, endure the middle with discipline, and approach the end with measured judgement. This sequence will help you stay centred and make choices you can stand by.
This is a "red alert" year, but you have a weapon. You face two major year-long negative transits: Saturn on your 1st (health/self) and Rahu in your 12th (expenses/loss). This creates constant pressure. Your saving grace is a year-long positive Ketu in your 6th house. This is a significant upgrade, giving you the power to fight back, defeat enemies, and overcome health issues.
The Good News:
- General Relief: Your only window for broad relief is May 26 to October 21. During this time, Jupiter moves to a positive transit in your 5th house. This is your lifeline, bringing clarity, good ideas, and a break from the stress.
- Money & Initiatives: Mars is positive in your 11th house from January 15 to February 22 and your 3rd from June 19 to August 1.
- Health: Your positive Ketu (6th) is active all year. Mars joins it from November 10 onwards, creating a "double positive" for overcoming a specific health problem or conflict.
Challenging Areas:
- Health & Finances: The start of the year (January 1 - May 26) is exceptionally difficult, as Jupiter, Saturn, and Rahu are all negative.
- Health (Mixed): The final quarter, from October 21, is complex. Jupiter turns negative (-) in your 6th house, but Ketu is there with a positive (+) influence. This is a "pull-pull" transit. You will have the power to defeat an enemy (Ketu), but a new one will appear (Jupiter). A health issue may be "solved" only for a new one to arise.
Key Planetary influences for you this year (for Pisces):
- Saturn: In Pisces (1st House)
- Jupiter: Starts in Gemini (4th House); moves to Cancer (5th House) on May 26; moves to Leo (6th House) on Oct 21.
- Mars: Transits Sagittarius (10th) through Leo (6th).
- Rahu: In Aquarius (12th House)
- Ketu: In Leo (6th House)
Your Astrological guidance:
This year requires endurance. Begin with realistic expectations. Pressure on your health, energy, and finances will be persistent. Knowing this in advance allows you to pace yourself rather than fighting conditions that will not easily yield. Your power lies in your capacity to overcome specific obstacles; use this strategically.
The first five months are exceptionally demanding. Multiple pressures converge during this period. Maintain basic routines, avoid overcommitment, and focus on getting through rather than getting ahead. Do not expect breakthrough results. Simply holding your ground is a form of success.
From late May through mid-October, genuine relief arrives. Use this window for rest, reflection, and planning. Clarity about your direction becomes possible. This is your recovery period. Do not squander it on unnecessary activity. Restore yourself and think carefully about what matters most.
The final quarter offers the power to resolve a specific health or conflict issue, but expect complexity. Solutions may be temporary, and new challenges may emerge as old ones fade. Accept this rhythm rather than seeking permanent fixes. Plan for cycles, not conclusions. Steady, continuous effort will carry you through better than dramatic interventions.
