2026 - the dawn of a new 9-year cycle
As we step into the first quarter of 2026, a profound shift is upon us. A new 9-year cycle is bringing a fresh start for everyone. This period is marked by a burst of fire and masculine energy that promises initiation, pioneering leadership, and radical new beginnings. The one thing that is very clear to me about 2026 – it’s not coming in quietly!
A time for initiation and transformation.
The beginning of this cycle is not just any transition, it's a powerful call to action. It’s as if the universe is striking a match against dry grass, igniting an intense transformation on both a collective and personal level. During the first months of 2026, old identities will be shed, and new ones will be forged, paving the way for a phase defined by:
Sudden Clarity - unexpected insights that compel us to revisit our priorities.
Instinctive decisions aimed at escaping stagnation.
Independence - breaking free from restrictive patterns as we set out on new paths.
Courage - embracing risks and stepping into leadership roles with passion.
Pioneering Spirit - redefining norms and charting unexplored territories in life.
Astronomical Wonders - Neptune/Aries Conjunction and beyond.
Astrologically, 2026 is momentous. One of the standout events is the rare Neptune/Saturn conjunction in Aries, exact on February 20th, blending Saturn’s structural reality with Neptune’s imagination and dissolution. This is a phenomenon that occurs approximately every 300 years. But the spectacle doesn't stop there, the cosmos seems to be aligning in, well, an unprecedented manner.In April, the skies will witness seven planets gathering in Aries on the new moon. This rare alignment intensifies the impact on our collective consciousness. As these potent energies surge, expect major paradigm shifts internally and in society at large. The celestial downpour will inspire courage and ignite the pioneering spirit deep within us all.
I would expect there to be a whole LOT of reactive energy the first few months of 2026 - pre-warned is pre-armed!
The Year of the Horse: Riding with the Wind
Adding another layer to this transformative period, 2026 is celebrated as the Year of the Horse in the Chinese calendar. The horse symbolises vigor, freedom, and unbridled passion - attributes that mirror the energy we are about to experience. As we gallop into dynamic change, this zodiac sign reminds us that the journey ahead is one of movement and progress.
Embracing the Future
There’s an air of anticipation as old chapters close, making way for a new narrative rich with possibility. Whether you're an avid follower of astrology or someone who eagerly embraces change, 2026 is set to be a catalyst for personal revolution.
Prepare yourself for:
New insights and unexpected revelations.
A wave of collective transformation.
The opportunity to reimagine your role in a rapidly evolving world.
As the flames of initiation spark a renewed sense of purpose, every one of us is invited to step forward and lead the charge into this exhilarating future. Welcome to 2026, a year that promises to be nothing short of transformative!
