the astrology of the summer of 2026 | part V - history rewritten, second chances, the future that did not exist before, grabbing hold of the basket by sign



This summer is rewriting our history (Uranus answering to Mercury retrograde and the New Moon in Cancer lunar cycle!) to pave the way for a FUTURE THAT DID NOT EXIST BEFORE. A new way to experience power. A new way to be more fully ourselves/Leo/our Suns. We can't be afraid to expand our life and yes, I know WE ARE TIRED :) But, this is what we came for, we have to keep changing and growing. 


We talked about this in - 


PART I - HERE

PART II - HERE

PART III - HERE

PART IV - HERE


How this "basket" comes to life depends on where Jupiter in Leo falls in our chart. 4-degrees Leo. 


Jupiter becomes the visible expression of the entire pattern - the place where growth, opportunity and a new chapter are WANTING TO EMERGE. Pluto reveals the deeper transformation driving that expansion (this comes through an opposition so will not be uncomfortable, but the other aspects are supporting). Uranus shows where a breakthrough or change in perspective opens the door and Neptune points to what must be surrendered or trusted. 


Where life wants to grow (Jupiter in Leo)

What deeper transformation makes that growth necessary (Pluto in Aquarius)

What breakthrough or new approach opens the door (Uranus in Gemini)

What must be surrendered or trusted (Neptune in Aries)


Read for your rising sign and Sun sign just keep in mind this is happening at 4-degrees so the early degrees of the fire and air signs (all masculine energy) which means that not only are we in the very beginning, but also that depending on the degree of your rising sign you might need to use the sign before or after, so feel your way through this. Aries Rising is the collective influence and applies to all of us! Also keep in mind this is just one set of eyes looking at this - experienced eyes, yes, but no one has seen this before. 


Aries Rising - Neptune 1st • Uranus 3rd • Jupiter 5th • Pluto 11th

A creative breakthrough or opportunity to step into greater visibility is tied to profound changes in your community, friendships or long-term goals. The opening comes through new ways of thinking, communicating, or learning, while Neptune asks you to release an outdated identity. The more your gifts serve something larger than your own recognition, the more this pattern can bring lasting success. Life wants you to courageously express who you are becoming and allow your unique gifts to find the people they're meant to serve.

 

Taurus Rising - Neptune 12th • Uranus 2nd • Jupiter 4th • Pluto 10th

Career transformation is supported by growth at home or a stronger emotional foundation. New approaches to money, talents and self-worth help make this possible, while Neptune asks you to let go of unconscious fears or an old chapter quietly ending behind the scenes. The more secure you become within yourself, the less you need to grasp for external power. Life wants to create greater happiness, stability, and abundance through your home, family and emotional foundations.

 

Gemini Rising Neptune 11th • Uranus 1st • Jupiter 3rd • Pluto 9th

Your voice becomes larger. Writing, teaching, speaking, or important conversations can open new doors because you are presenting yourself differently than before. Pluto is transforming your beliefs and worldview, while Neptune dissolves old expectations around friendships or future plans. Stay curious instead of becoming convinced you've found all the answers. Life wants you to find your voice, share your ideas, and allow a changing perspective to open new paths forward.

 

Cancer Rising - Neptune 10th • Uranus 12th • Jupiter 2nd • Pluto 8th

Growth in income, confidence or personal resources is supported by deep transformation around shared resources, debts, inheritances or emotional intimacy. Behind-the-scenes insights or unexpected endings help prepare you for what comes next. Your career direction may feel less concrete now, but it is also becoming more inspired. Life wants you to redefine what truly gives you security and discover the strength that comes from trusting deeper transformations and intimacies.

 

Leo Rising - Neptune 9th • Uranus 11th • Jupiter 1st • Pluto 7th

This is a major personal expansion. You are becoming more visible, confident, and willing to lead, but relationships are undergoing profound change. New communities and alliances help you grow while Neptune asks you to loosen rigid beliefs or expectations about the future. The greatest opportunities come when confidence remains balanced with humility. Life wants you to step fully into a new chapter of personal growth while allowing your relationships to evolve alongside you.

 

Virgo Rising - Neptune 8th • Uranus 10th • Jupiter 12th • Pluto 6th

Much of your growth happens behind the scenes. Career changes or unexpected professional opportunities emerge while daily work, routines, and health undergo significant transformation. Neptune encourages surrender around issues of control, trust, or shared resources. This is a powerful period for healing before a more public chapter begins. Life wants you to release what has quietly run its course so you can prepare for the next chapter with greater wisdom and purpose.

 

Libra Rising - Neptune 7th • Uranus 9th • Jupiter 11th • Pluto 5th

Friends, communities and long-term goals expand in meaningful ways. Creative projects or romance undergo deep transformation, while travel, education, publishing, or a new philosophy opens unexpected doors. Relationships require greater compassion and less idealization. Your future grows through authentic collaboration. Life wants you to find your future through authentic friendships, shared ideals, and the courage to create from your heart.

 

Scorpio Rising - Neptune 6th • Uranus 8th • Jupiter 10th • Pluto 4th

Career and public life can reach an important milestone. The deeper transformation, however, is happening within home, family, or your emotional foundations. Shared finances or emotional vulnerability may require innovative solutions. Neptune reminds you that sustainable success depends on healthy routines and realistic expectations. Life wants you to build a public life that reflects the profound changes taking place within your private world.

 

Sagittarius Rising - Neptune 5th • Uranus 7th • Jupiter 9th • Pluto 3rd

Your worldview expands through travel, study, publishing or spiritual exploration. Relationships introduce exciting new perspectives, while Pluto transforms the way you think and communicate. Neptune asks you to create from inspiration rather than seeking validation. The conversations you begin now can shape your future direction. Life wants you to expand your horizons, embrace a larger vision, and allow new conversations to reshape your understanding of what's possible.

 

Capricorn Rising - Neptune 4th • Uranus 6th • Jupiter 8th • Pluto 2nd

Growth comes through shared resources, investments, healing, or deeper intimacy. Financial values and self-worth are undergoing profound transformation, while work and health routines continue evolving in unexpected ways. Home may feel uncertain at times, but releasing old definitions of security makes room for a more resilient foundation. Life wants you to redefine what real security means by deepening trust, sharing resources wisely, and releasing outdated attachments.

 

Aquarius Rising Neptune 3rd • Uranus 5th • Jupiter 7th • Pluto 1st

Relationships become a major area of opportunity and expansion while you continue a profound reinvention of yourself. Creative risks, romance, or children may bring surprising developments. Neptune encourages compassionate communication and flexible thinking. The healthiest partnerships support the person you are becoming rather than the person you used to be. Life wants you to grow through meaningful partnerships that encourage you to become even more fully yourself.

 

Pisces Rising - Neptune 2nd • Uranus 4th • Jupiter 6th • Pluto 12th

Daily work, health, and routines improve through practical growth and renewed confidence. Changes at home or within the family create the conditions for that progress, while Pluto continues a deep process of inner healing and psychological release. Neptune asks you to redefine what you truly value and not just materially, but spiritually. Life wants you to create a healthier, more meaningful daily life while discovering that your greatest strength often develops quietly behind the scenes.


  • Aries = Become yourself.
  • Taurus = Build your foundation.
  • Gemini = Find your voice.
  • Cancer = Know your values.
  • Leo = Step into your identity.
  • Virgo = Prepare inwardly.
  • Libra = Find your people.
  • Scorpio = Build your legacy.
  • Sagittarius = Expand your worldview.
  • Capricorn = Transform your relationship with security and power.
  • Aquarius = Grow through partnership.
  • Pisces = Create a life that reflects your inner healing.

  • Keep in mind these outer planetary aspects have been building for months and years. Jupiter and THEN THE SUN coming into Leo (and forming that handle, so we can get A GRIP ON THIS STUFF) are pulling the energies into our daily lives. 


    I hope something here is helpful!
