NEPTUNE SEXTILE NATAL VENUS

Sextiles (60° aspect) are known to be beneficial, opportunistic, workable aspects especially when we apply ourselves to whatever opportunity is at hand. 

 

Venus is often linked to love and affection.  In some cases, it deals with social interactions and is also tied to finances. 

 

The energy of Neptune can last for several years because of its slow movement through the Zodiac.  Check an ephemeris to check transiting Neptune’s movements, allowing an orb of 5° approaching and 2° separating, to know when you will feel these energies beginning to enhance your Venus when contact is made.  The tighter the orb the stronger the influence.

 

Neptune can be dreamy and vague at times, and it is suggested that you take a reality check when it is applying to any planet, although the Sextile and Trine usually suggest valid applications.

 

When transiting Neptune sextiles natal Venus in your chart, this may be the time you meet the person of your dreams.  Love can grow at a rapid speed, especially if Mars is somehow attached to the connection.  Make sure you are seeing the person in their true light as you may put them on a pedestal without even being aware of it.  You could have blinders on, but it may also be very real.  You can rely on your intuition, and you need to listen carefully to what it is telling you.

 

There is the potential for excessive drug and alcohol use during this time, and it suggested that you steer clear, as this is likely to make the fascination even stronger and less reliable.  It will already appear as a fantasy so let’s make sure that what we are feeling is as real as it can be. 

 

Social activities may also be highlighted during this time, and there might be something rather magical about how it unfolds.  It can be a fun time for everyone although partying can be a little excessive.  Have fun but don’t overdo it.

 

If this relates to your finances, once again, don’t dream.  Make sure that what you see is real and the opportunity that awaits you is also not only promising but actually has the potential to expand and grow as you invest yourself in the process.  Finances may improve unexpectedly especially if Uranus is involved.  If Jupiter is involved, there may be a feeling that you can’t go wrong, and if Mars is involved, it is suggested that you take a second look and go slowly. Mars wants to rush but you must resist the temptation.

 

Regardless of what this might entail, as the houses involved will identify, transiting Neptune sextile natal Venus is considered a valid, opportunistic period. Follow your gut instincts.

ASPECTS FOR SUN IN GEMINI 2026

We are going to look at a couple of the longer lasting aspects that will affect Sun in Gemini coming up this year. To fully understand the influences of Uranus and Pluto that we are about to describe for those born with their Sun in Gemini, we would suggest reading our article posted May 19 https://www.holmastrology.com/post/sun-in-gemini-2026 about Gemini’s characteristics.  This will provide a good idea of how these dynamic energy forces of Uranus and Pluto will affect the Sun in Geminin individual.

 

Transiting Uranus takes seven years to move through one sign and will go into retrograde several times during its stay in Gemini.  If your Sun matches the same degree as Uranus when it goes into retrograde, it will hit your Sun three times during its stay when it touches that degree.  This will have a profound influence in your life.

 

Uranus is about change that is overdue.  It brings about sudden events, often not giving you any hints beforehand that change is needed.  If you do not react to what Uranus is suggesting, the change will be forced upon you, usually under more harsh conditions.  It is best to act when nudged. 

 

Uranus is known as the awakener, and this is what it will do when it contacts your Sun.  Note the area of life governed by the astrological chart house your Sun is located in and the house Uranus is passing through as well. It will help you with the life lesson to be learned.

 

Conjunction aspects in Astrology imply intensity and a molding of energies.

 

When conjunct the Sun, Uranus will push you to delve into your goals, aspirations and your path in life.  It will also make you look deep within to make any necessary changes.  It wants you to determine what you have outgrown and then push you in a new direction that is more suitable for your life’s path now.

 

The trine to Pluto will also brings about change and transformation usually in massive ways. These changes that Sun in Gemini are subject to can be quite profound.  For those that are influenced by both Pluto and Uranus in their chart, the changes that they will experience will likely be life-changing and quite enlightening although likely hard to handle or accept until the dust settles, so to speak.

 

Pluto is about transformation and regeneration, but when it acts, there are no half measures.  Something comes to an end so that something new can begin. 

 

Both outer planets are known to have huge effects on your life, and they force what is taking hold, which is for your greater good even though it may not look that way as you maneuver your way through the energies. 

 

With the Aspects for Sun in Gemini 2026, it is best to not fight the process. Go with the flow of life events as they unfold.  You will end up where you need to be in the end, but a shift of great proportions is likely. Expect the unexpected even though you might somehow understand what this might entail.

 

Happy solar return to our Sun in Gemini readers.

JUPITER TRINE NATAL MOON

Jupiter while in Transit, moves through the full Zodiac every 12 years.  When it makes a Trine to your Natal Moon, the house and sign position of the Moon in the birth chart must be examined carefully before taking into consideration the sign that Transiting Jupiter is moving through.

 

The house that Transiting Jupiter is moving through is an area that has potential for growth and positive expansion.  This house, in turn, will exemplify the energies dictated by the Moon’s position. 

 

If the Natal Moon is in a Water sign the potential for development and growth will be in the area of emotional sensitivity often connected to psychic potential or your insights are enhanced.  Intuition is often strong with clear and concise recognition of these abilities.

 

If the Natal Moon is in Earth signs, and depending on the Moon’s position in the natal chart by house, Jupiter will bring good fortune and expanded opportunities when it comes to personal development from an emotional perspective in areas connected with achievement especially in the material sense.  Opportunities and easy flow may be affiliated in matters related to business or material acquisition.  Someone may notice your achievements and perhaps wish to align or help you in attaining more recognition.  The possibilities can be endless.

 

If your Moon is in an Air sign, you may find that your mental reasoning and ideology may be enhanced.  You may be able to figure out complex issues that have held you back in the past and now you seem to know exactly what to do.  You may perhaps be thinking about a course you want to take or a book that you want to publish. Now, under this aspect, all of your ducks seem to line up perfectly.

 

If your Moon is in a Fire sign, perhaps you may feel motivated to go ahead with your personal endeavors and move ahead with resilience and extra energy that was not in place prior to this aspect.  You seem to be firing on all cylinders and there is a push to advance. Now is the time to move on your goals.

 

Transiting Jupiter Trine Natal Moon suggests that your emotional reaction to life events is likely more promising than it might have been in the recent past.  Much of who you are, from an emotional perspective, is heightened.  You can use these emotional interactions to advance your causes.  Now is a good time, depending on the rest of the chart, of course, to get more in touch with your feelings and understand them from a philosophical perspective.  Religious inclinations and spiritual insight are often enhanced under this influence. Use these energies, as they will not be presented regularly.

ASPECTS FOR SUN IN TAURUS 2026

On Monday, April 20, we posted an article on Sun in Taurus.  https://www.holmastrology.com/post/sun-in-taurus-2026

 

Today, we will look at some of the aspects affecting Sun in Taurus for 2026.

 

When we review the positioning of the major Transits, we note that Saturn and Neptune are both in the sign of Aries. As a result, they are making a semi-sextile to Sun in Taurus. 

 

We also note that Uranus is moving into Gemini on April 26 which will also make a semi-sextile aspect to the Taurus sun.

 

What is a semi-sextile?

 

To begin, with a semi-sextile, you can only allow a small arb of influence which should be no more than 2° from being direct. It is a minor aspect which is considered frictional. It may go by unnoticed. If we are attuned to the energies, however, and with considerable focus and adjustments taken where required, we can take steps that will bring growth over the long haul.  The energy needs to be moved forward and can have a lasting effect if a good degree of work is done.  Sitting by and doing nothing will not bring about rewards.

 

You must consider the planetary energies and the houses involved in the Taurean’s chart to reach possible conclusions as to how these energies might pan out. 

 

Neptune and Saturn have opposing energies. Saturn seeks steady, reliable, hard work to ensure lasting potential.  Neptune, on the other hand, connects with spirituality, intuition and abilities that lie beyond what would be considered “normal” or even static to inspirational insight and psychic intuitive knowledge.  Saturn is in the realistic material realm and Neptune connects to intuitive inspiration and psychic awareness.

 

When both Neptune and Saturn are in the sign of Aries, there is a giant push to do whatever must be done for oneself.  Sun in Taurus individuals must approach life by doing what they need to do and that is best for themselves, not for others, although in many cases others might be involved in the process. 

 

The houses in the astrology chart will indicate what areas of life are involved.

 

Uranus in Gemini speaks of a change of direction often through great transformational energies that we seek through mental reasoning. A new direction is often what this is about and in some cases the action is quick, decisive and possibly abrupt. A part of you will understand that this change of direction is needed, and you know what to do to make it happen. 

 

It is important to look at all other transits which affect this placement, as with all contacts.  This gives you a clearer understanding of what full energies are in play, either making this change easy or challenging.

 

Transiting Jupiter is making a Sextile to this positioning, while Transiting Pluto is making a square. 

 

Check your ephemeris to see where these transiting planets are in your chart and if they affect your Taurus Sun sign. The closer the degree, the stronger the energies.

 

Happy solar return to our Sun in Taurus readers.  The aspects for those with Sun in Taurus 2026 involving Saturn, Neptune, and Uranus suggest there is personal work that must be done connecting with both the realistic and the spiritual realms and a possible change of direction.

LIBRA FULL MOON 2026

A Full Moon, as many of you are aware, is the culmination of goals or energy put in place some six months ago when we had our New Moon in the same sign.  This Full Moon is in the sign of Libra, the sign of the scales, is linked to relationships of significance in this life.  April 2, the Libra Full Moon will at 12° degrees.

 

During this full moon, using an orb of no more than 3° degrees, it will form a Square to the planet Jupiter which is at 15° degrees in the sign of Cancer.

 

Since Cancer and Libra are both signs that have to do with family and the relationships with them, this is likely tied to members of our family if the Full Moon is making contact in our Astrology chart.  For example, this can include your parents, your spouse and/or your children, if the fifth house is part of the picture. It will affect your relationship with co-workers if the sixth house is involved, and with friends if the eleventh house is part of the picture. 

 

Cancer (Jupiter’s current sign) is an emotionally driven sign, and Libra (the Moon’s current sign) wants to create peace, balance and fairness including justice when necessary.  If there are wrongdoings, the feelings will run deep. If there has been injustice, there is a need to rectify the situation.  All comes out in the wash as they say. You have to put things into the washing machine before they can come out clean. The residue of the dirt that might have surfaced needs to be cleared away.

 

This will most likely, as mentioned, be about relationships.  With Jupiter being part of the process and having been in place for some time, things or these energies will likely have reached a peak. Although the situations are heightened, because of the influence of the great benefactor, Jupiter, you should be able to work things out for the best, if you do what must be done to make things right.

 

Libra suggests you use diplomacy and bring about the balance that is required.  Be the judge but try not to make too many judgements.  Libra always looks at both sides of the situation and will work hard on either side of the coin to bring about favorable outcomes. 

 

There is potential here, but it will take work. Square aspects force you into action, because you want resolution.  Do your best. If it is personal, practice forgiveness. If it is not personal, do not take on the energies of others. It serves no purpose other than to create anxiety to be emotionally involved in something that is not yours to own. 

 

This Libra Full Moon 2026 will certainly involve relationships and emotions will be amplified.  Find peace, balance, fairness and even justice where necessary.

NEPTUNE SEXTILE NATAL ASCENDANT

When Transiting Neptune is sextile your natal Ascendant, it is also making a trine to your natal Descendant.  This suggests that there are opportunities for self-examination which can bring about major changes to how you represent yourself. At the same time, it can bring about opportunities and likely easy flow when it comes to relationships that are an important part of your life, especially your partner and any business partnership that you currently have. 

 

The transformations that are taking hold with these important people will be quite favorable, partly because you now can bring to the surface anything that has been hidden or has not been seen clearly in the past.  You are more open to hidden agendas, and your intuition is heightened.  You can now deal more openly because you instinctively understand things on a clearer level.  You are also much more sensitive to what others are feeling and can trust the voice within for guidance, for helping others and yourself because you want to nurture.

 

The changes that can now surface, especially with the way you represent yourself, may go through a metamorphosis by examining any deep-seated feelings about yourself.  You can let kindness begin to surface and you are more caring and sensitive to life’s situations.  You can interact with more compassion and selfless service for others, especially for the underdog. 

 

The psychic realms and spiritual awareness now become more evident.  You can become more involved in these areas, and under this aspect, many do.  The door is now open to such avenues.

 

Because the Ascendant plays a big role in health, this is the time to take greater care of your body.  Exercise and proper eating habits should be practiced.  Under this aspect, it is the time to make changes to your body if your body requires healthy changes.  Looking after yourself might come more easily. 

 

Anything in life that appears to be threatening in any manner should now be avoided, as you are more receptive. 

 

Be gentle with yourself, don’t overwork your body and treat it as a valued friend that you want beside you for a long time. 

 

Transiting Neptune sextile natal Ascendant brings about self-examination and then self-care. Listen to your instincts and embrace the kinder more compassionate you.

JUPITER CONJUNCT NATAL SOUTH NODE

 (OPPOSITION NORTH NODE)

 

Since the Nodes are always exactly 180° apart from one another, when we speak of the South Node by Conjunction, we also speak of the North Node by Opposition.  

The South Node is said to be linked to past lives and the expertise learned from these lives can be used in the pursuit of what the North Node relates to in this life.  The South Node is said to be a “comfort” place where we should not be residing, and that we should be following our North Node’s direction even though it may be uncomfortable because it is unknown.

 

Jupiter is associated with growth, expansiveness, fortunate conditions, or at the very least, the potential of creating something positive and gained experience through life’s experience. 

 

The South Node is often considered similar in its influence as is Saturn, suggesting challenging situations and delayed reactions or obstacles that stand in the way of success. 

 

The Conjunction to the South Node indicates an emphasis on the desire to fall back into what might feel more comfortable, although we know we need to press forward into change or find a different direction. 

 

For instance, if this has to do with a relationship (indicated with the South Node being in the 7^th or 5^th house, or perhaps in the sign of Libra) then perhaps the relationship is now not suitable for you moving forward, and although you feel the need to move out of it, a part of you still wants to stay in the relationship, because, even though it is not a good relationship, it is comfortable and familiar. 

 

Another example might be if the South Node is in the fourth house or Conjunct the IC, which suggests that the North Node is in Opposition to your MC. With this example, you might have been tied to looking after your family and domesticated duties Now you need to leave this because a career has the potential to be unleased and assist in your goals.  You are quite comfortable at home, but others might be suggesting that you take this job, because of the opportunities that it offers.  Oppositions often involve other people’s feedback or needs and sometimes these needs overshadow your own personal desires.

 

If this was another planet that might be doing the Transit rather than Jupiter, the conditions would be quite different. Jupiter will often produce positive results after some deliberation, and you will likely benefit from its influence.  Uranus, for example, would bring sudden unexpected changes, Neptune would dissolve the situation, and Pluto could bring arguments and struggles into play. 

 

Check to see where your North and South Nodes are located by sign and house as this will determine the areas of life involved.  If they are also being affected by other transits, this will have to be delineated to get the full picture.  Always look at the natal potential in the birth chart.

 

To summarize, with transiting Jupiter conjunct natal South Node, opposition natal North Node do not fall back into what is comfortable. Push forward and fulfill this life lessons. Jupiter will help!

VIRGO FULL MOON 2026 (LUNAR ECLIPSE)

On March 3, 2026, we will experience a Full Moon, Lunar Eclipse at 12° in the sign of Virgo.  This eclipse will influence your chart, (your life) if you have any planets or angles within 3° by Conjunction, Opposition and to a lesser degree Square, Trine and Sextile aspect to this position.  The house where this moon is located will be the area of life involved and its effects are said to last in months, the length of time the eclipse lasts in hours. 

 

According to timeanddate.com in the Toronto area, the eclipse begins at 3:44 am, is at maximum at 6:33 am and ends at 6:52 am, for a total duration of 3 hours and 8 minutes. As a result, the effects will be felt for approximately 3.25 months if your chart is impacted.

 

In Virgo, it will be associated with service on some level and the need for doing things right because you are very familiar with what is wrong with the situation.  You have seen all the little flaws in things, and you want to do the best you can to correct them if you can or at least to make them as perfect as possible.

 

Most eclipses get you moving and bring about an end of circumstances for something new to take its place.  In many cases, things move rapidly, beginning abruptly or in unexpected ways.  They can arrive in manners that you would never have thought of, and because of their advanced movement, you are requested to move along with the energies and make the changes to your life or they are likely to be made for you.  Things will go through a metamorphosis never to return to the way things were prior to this event.

 

Because it is a lunar eclipse, this time is likely to be very emotional, but you are meant to move forward just as the universe is suggesting.  This is often linked to a major turning point in life, one that will not be forgotten.  It brings things to the forefront and although it may not seem like this is a favorable time in life, (although it can also point in that direction) over time you will understand that what took place during the Full Moon Cycle was what was needed and it will work out in a favorable manner.

 

This Virgo Full Moon 2026 (Lunar Eclipse) will bring opportunities and once things come together, you will wonder why so many fear an eclipse.  Unless you have challenging aspects connected in your natal chart, there is little to fear. Change can be uncomfortable but beneficial.
