Here you can read your personal 2026 FREE monthly horoscope, describing the way your (love) life unfolds month after month.
The predictions below are descriptive, NOT judgmental.
We discuss relationships in a wide sense and that's why we will often refer to your family life, co-workers or neighbors,... as well -- if applicable.
So, actually, the forecasts are so much more than just a monthly (love) horoscope.
In case we find a powerful or rare astrological configuration, we will comment on this too.
This way you will be able to learn some astrological principles by reading your 2026 free monthly horoscope.
Among many other techniques, we review powerful Fixed Stars, degree areas, planetary pictures (and midpoint combos) that may affect your Sun's position -- making this more reliable than simple Sun sign forecasts.
If you want to know why the forecasts are so concise and 'written in bullets', check out our FAQ page.
We publish your 2026 free monthly horoscope on this page around the 1st day of every month.
Subscribers to our monthly Love Letter will read the 2026 free monthly horoscope first though as our Love Letter is scheduled to be released more than a week before (around the 21st of each month).
To read your 2026 free monthly horoscope, just click the month of your choice below.
Why is it possible that our forecasts still can be wrong for you?
Because we only and solely delineate the transiting planets/bodies and midpoints that aspect your natal Sun WITHOUT taking into account any interference from any other natal planet/body (because we don't have your natal chart that contains much more planets/bodies and points than just the Sun).
If, for example, the transiting Jupiter/Uranus midpoint aspects your natal Sun, this may indicate a fortunate event -- which we will mention.
However, if, in your natal chart, Saturn aspects the Sun (which we cannot know), the meaning of this configuration changes completely and becomes more challenging and you may find our prediction to be wrong for you.

All dates are calculated for the European Time Zone.
Generally speaking, January 2, 3, 4 and 18 are "less lucky" days.
Try not to initiate any major projects on these dark, unfortunate, chaotic and empty days (no proposals, no marriages, no changes of residence,...) because things may not go as planned or wished.
In the 45° dial, there are the following powerful midpoint combinations between outer planets going on that will mark this month's Zeitgeist (and thus work out the whole month):
The Jupiter/Neptune midpoint equals the Saturn/Chiron midpoint (JU/NE = SA/CH) which will be exact around January 12.
This midpoint combination suggests, among others: the severe flood(s) or inundation(s) with big damage, the financial shutdown or crash, the dismantling of a large criminal organization, the big catch in matters of fraud or corruption.
We have seen this pattern to be also part of earthquakes, but not exclusively.
The Jupiter/mean Lunar Node hits the Uranus/Pluto midpoint (JU/KN = UR/PL) which will be exact around January 15.
This midpoint combination suggests, among others: the widespread tumult or uproar, the big storm, the sudden change of plans for many, the sudden disruption.
Neptune equals the Jupiter/mean Lunar Node midpoint (NE = JU/KN) which will be exact around January 21.
This midpoint combination suggests, among others: the cold shower, the huge disappointment in others or in someone else, the big scam or swindle, the financial waste, the unreliable connections, the criminal organization(s) or connections, the increased need for religious or spiritual contact, to be deceived by someone or by others, the error(s) in judgment.
The Jupiter/mean Lunar Node hits the Saturn/Neptune midpoint (JU/KN = SA/NE) which will be exact around January 29.
This midpoint combination suggests, among others: the decay and dissolving situation for many, the widespread water issues or precipitation or flood or inundation, the environmental issues, the left wing political changes, the support or help for the ill or poor people, the widespread illness or epidemic.
From January 1 on and till January 18, the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars are in Capricorn, still boosting the love life of all earth signs (Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn), Cancerians and those of you having Cancer rising.
However, this stellium in Capricorn (that will linger on without Venus till January 20) represents a treacherous period for Aquarians and those of you having Aquarius rising (until January 20 that is).
You may not feel too well, be ill or feel confined.
Also, there may be a lot going on behind closed doors or behind your back and you better prepare for gossip, trouble, not being able to prove yourself, being held back.
Following astrometeorology, a stellium in Capricorn drops the temperatures profoundly in the northern hemisphere and coincides with very dry weather in the southern hemisphere.
Following mundane astrology, a stellium in corporate and governmental Capricorn emphasizes rules and regulations, restrictions and even more censorship as well.
Only accomplishments and obligations count, and being dutiful and productive.
No time for pleasure just now.
Around January 1, Mercury at 29° Sagittarius squares Neptune at 29° Pisces right before Mercury enters Capricorn around midnight (MET Time Zone).
When Mercury is in a waning square with Neptune, there often is kind of an exodus going on, people fleeing, running away, quitting and/or travelling (for whatever reason).
Most waning Mercury-Neptune squares reflect lies, betrayal, deception, not being to-the-point or accurate.
Beware of being careless or inattentive and don't be blinded by misleading inaccuracies and empty promises.
When Mercury is at 0° Capricorn, it usually coincides with an official statement, an announcement or a governmental message but it may also point to a corporate letter or message about a new beginning or regulation.
Chiron stations at 22° Aries and turns direct around January 2, often coinciding with strikes, manifestations and protests, even uproar.
There can be obstructions here and there and expect some things to break down.
This degree area coincides with speedy, very quick actions, events or experiences that spread quickly too (like a blast, wildfire, something that gets triggered or ignited instantly and gets 'out' immediately).
Following astrometeorology, stationing Chiron above average coincides with extreme weather conditions and even emergency situations.
In Winter, this may indicate snow blizzards and/or ice.
Please note, there are NO planetary aspects active around January 5, suggesting this day is a wildcard that may go unbelievably well and bring lots of succes(es) or go terribly wrong.
It all depends on your own natal horoscope.
The Sun and Venus meet at 16° Capricorn around January 6, indicating an enjoyable encounter or meeting.
Some of you may receive a nice package, gift or surprise.
Between January 8-10, there is a T-square active, hitting 18°-21° in cardinal signs (Cancer, Libra and Capricorn) during which the Sun, Venus and Mars all conjoin and together oppose Jupiter.
The Moon will be the apex body but let us talk about this special configuration and unravel the different factors separately first, not to overwhelm you too much all at once.
After the Sun-Venus conjunction we talked about a second ago, Venus will meet Mars at 18° Capricorn around January 8.
Regular readers of our monthly forecasts may already know in the meantime that ALL Venus-Mars aspects (and especially the conjunctions) point to issues with keeping boundaries, crossing lines.
In natal charts, such conjunctions may point to very spontaneous people (often too 'spontaneous', almost literally bumping into someone and neglecting the boundaries of others) and in mundane astrology this is the same, but experienced on a higher level.
Hence, this is not a peaceful combination and rather points to clashes and crashes.
People may become physical, violent, and cars and vehicles or material goods too are likely to clash and crash.
Hence, traffic or transportation accidents and explosive violence may be expected here and there.
The degree area of 18° Capricorn emphasizes these principles and points to resistance, arguing, tense disputes, playing the rebel, being contrary.
Legal issues will skyrocket this month!
It's a hectic period in time full of strive coming from all quarters.
Additionally, there are deadlines to be taken into account, increasing pressure to act or decide, in whatever way.
Only patience and resilience will bring you through this busy period in time.
The Venus-Jupiter opposition suggests expenses, financial losses, legal issues in relationships or partnerships.
Indeed, this whole T-square period indicates an intense legal battle for sure.
Around the January 10 Last Quarter Moon at 20° Capricorn, the Sun and Mars together at 20° Capricorn oppose Jupiter, still at 20° Cancer.
This lunation makes the T-square now perfect.
Following mundane astrology, the degree area of this lunation points to (very) passionate and intense involvements for good or bad (people merging but also departing).
This degree area is a very transformative one, in whatever way, from very painful, emotionally, to very happy.
On a more personal level and in matters of love and romance, the whole lunation period between January 8-11, will certainly present quite an unforgettable time for some of you.
Aside from legal battles for some of you, there will be extremely auspicious events going on as well (the more so if natal Saturn is not aspecting this degree area): childbirths, getting pregnant, proposals, marriages, irresistible physical attractions with consequences,...
This T-square between the Sun, Venus, Mars, Jupiter building up before and becoming exact around the Last Quarter Moon will especially affect you if you are born between January 8-12, February 7-10, February 23-25 April 8-12, May 9-12, May 26-28, July 10-15, August 10-14, August 28-30, October 11-16, November 10-14 or November 27-29.
Around January 14, Mars at 22° Capricorn squares Chiron at 22° Aries while Mercury at 19° Capricorn opposes Jupiter at 19° Cancer.
Most Mars-Chiron aspects coincide with strikes, protests and manifestations.
There are disruptions at or around the workplace.
People may differ opinions and may disagree and even clash easily now.
The Mercury-Jupiter opposition is upbeat and exaggerates.
Speeches and talks may be full of bluff, and misjudgments may happen.
Also, some of you will travel or take a trip.
Following mundane astrology, Mercury-Jupiter oppositions often coincide with (legal) documents being made public or being released or information being disclosed and spread.
The Sun and Mercury both enter Aquarius while Venus and Pluto conjoin at 3° Aquarius around the same day of January 20.
Beware of big U-turns, sudden disruptions and emergency or crisis situations.
Some of you may face a shock experience and irritation because some rules now change.
Beware of a fall.
There is a huge need to be independent, free and detached.
The Venus-Pluto aspect points to a sudden profound change in the life of a loved one.
It's possible there will be a social gathering, people coming together, uniting.
Now that the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Pluto reside in Aquarius and build a stellium, a treacherous period starts for Pisces and those of you having Pisces rising.
You may not feel too well, be ill or feel confined.
Also, there may be a lot going on behind closed doors or behind your back and you better prepare for gossip, trouble, not being able to prove yourself, being held back.
Following astrometeorology, a stellium in Aquarius coincides with cold(er) weather, often accompanied by blizzards, more wind and even storm.
Following mundane astrology, a stellium in the air sign Aquarius may coincide with an increased risk of air crashes or issues in space (drones, satellites, etc.).
The Sun and Mercury conjoin the day after at 1° Aquarius, around January 21.
This degree area coincides with rejection, resignation, being fired or leaving a position even if you 'feel' unguilty or think it's all unjustified.
So, there can be news about such subjects that result in having a feeling of going it alone now.
Also, this degree area involves some fear for and uncertainty about the future.
Mercury then conjuncts Pluto at 3° Aquarius the day after, around January 22, often pointing to news about a death.
There are social gatherings going on.
This degree area sees it big, really big so that information or communication about big projects may be on the agenda.
There can be news about big investigations too because all Mercury-Pluto combinations love to analyze, research and go to the bottom of everything (especially secrets).
Around the January 26 First Quarter Moon at 6° Taurus, generational and slow-moving Neptune enters Aries for the next 12-13 years.
This is a big deal, the more so because 0° Aries is the Vernal point, representing the world at large, the whole world.
In this position, Neptune may bring mass deception, worldwide deception but also new ideals and ideologies spanning the world.
The lunation at 6° Taurus coincides with explosions that may happen this week.
Something bursts open, releases some products out into the open (gas or other material or immaterial stuff).
In numerous cases, this degree area points to something breaking up or down and, following mundane astrology, in some instances it indicates an attack or assassination.
Interestingly, the neck and throat are now sensitive organs (represented by Taurus).
Additionally, volcanic eruptions may become more in the news too the coming days, weeks and months.

All dates are calculated for the European Time Zone.
Generally speaking, February 3, 6, 8 and 16 are "less lucky" days.
Try not to initiate any major projects on these dark, unfortunate, chaotic and empty days (no proposals, no marriages, no changes of residence,...) because things may not go as planned or wished.
In the 45° dial, there are the following powerful midpoint combinations between outer planets going on that will mark this month's Zeitgeist (and thus work out the whole month):
The Saturn/Neptune midpoint equals the Vernal point (0° Aries) (SA/NE = Vp) which will be exact around February 10.
However, be aware that Saturn and Neptune will stay at 0° Aries till February 23 and will conjoin around February 20, right before Saturn will proceed to 1° Aries, slowly changing the energies.
This midpoint will thus be active the whole month and suggests, among others: the worldwide hysteria, the mass hysteria, the worldwide illness (epidemics), the worldwide decay and chaos, the worldwide increased popular insurrections fired by ideological beliefs that point to collective demands of a frustrated population which has no hope (because of hunger or poverty, for example), the worldwide environmental issue(s), the dissolving of certain political fractions or structures and even political parties, the big water-related issues like floods or inundations, the heavy precipitation, the drowning(s).
Expect more uprising, more revolts, especially by those in a subordinate position in society this month.
The power and importance of labor unions will grow.
Take care of your health as health issues will likely skyrocket this month.
The Saturn/Uranus midpoint hits the Pluto/Chiron midpoint (SA/UR = PL/CH) which will be exact around February 14.
This midpoint combination suggests, among others: the mass uproar, the strikes and protests and manifestations, the immense disruptions or obstruction or blockage (for whatever reason), the heavy riots, the rage of the people or the masses, the disruptions affecting the masses.
Saturn equals the Uranus/Pluto midpoint (SA = UR/PL) which will be exact around February 22.
This midpoint combination suggests, among others: the big earthquake, the oppression, to be toppled from a position, the downfall because of pressure, persisting despite obstacles on the path toward reform.
The Saturn/Neptune midpoint hits the Uranus/Pluto midpoint (SA/NE = UR/PL) which will be exact around February 24.
This midpoint combination suggests, among others: the severe storm, the deluge causing inundations and floods, the heavy precipitation, the extreme weather, the drastic political changes or overturning, the disappearing/falling leader(s) of state or government(s).
Uranus hits the Saturn/Chiron midpoint (UR = SA/CH) which will be exact around February 26.
This midpoint combination suggests, among others: material damage because of an earthquake and/or storm, the sudden cold shower, the shock experience bringing you down to earth, the air crash, the sudden physical injury or illness causing pain, the sudden obstruction or blockage.
Saturn hits the Chiron/mean Lunar Node midpoint (SA = CH/KN) which will be exact around February 27.
This midpoint combination suggests, among others: the heavy obstruction for many, the blockage, the delays, the separated group of people, the blocking or isolation of a group of people, the turning tides for a group of people.
From February 1 on and till February 10, the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars and Pluto are still in Aquarius, still boosting the love life of all air signs (Gemini, Libra and Aquarius), Leos and those of you having Leo rising.
However, this stellium in Aquarius (that will linger on without Mercury till February 10) still represents a treacherous period for Pisces and those of you having Pisces rising.
You may not feel too well, be ill or feel confined.
Also, there may be a lot going on behind closed doors or behind your back and you better prepare for gossip, trouble, not being able to prove yourself, being held back.
However, after February 10, the sky will slowly clear up a bit more but there still will be three planets/bodies in Aquarius (the Sun, Mars and Pluto) that will create suspense and disruption.
Following astrometeorology, a stellium in Aquarius keeps the temperatures low and coincides with windy, even stormy and ice cold weather here and there (with blizzards in the northern hemisphere).
It's told that Aquarius can be colder than Capricorn, especially when Mars is in Aquarius (which it currently is till March 3)...
Following mundane astrology, a stellium in erratic and disruptive Aquarius emphasizes restlessness, disruptions, rebellion, uproar, fierce opposition, protests and manifestations as well as revolutions.
Aquarius is the zodiac sign of 'we the people' and the stellium now demands 'we the people' to be seen and heard.
This is going to be a turbulent month in many ways.
Because Aquarius is an air sign, beware of increased air crashes and all things flying above us or just being part of the sky.
Around February 8, Venus at 27° Aquarius squares stationing Uranus, its own dispositor.
There can be short-lived attractions, sudden love at first sight, short but enjoyable encounters, or meetings that are suddenly disrupted/interrupted or cut off, for whatever reason.
In some instances, relationships with loved ones might be suddenly broken off and this waning aspect is above all a separating one with a sad or even tragic undertone.
Following astrometeorology, there still is precipitation and, in some areas, this means snow (often indicated by Venus-Uranus configurations) in the northern hemisphere.
Venus enters Pisces around February 10 at the same day the Saturn/Neptune midpoint enters the Vernal point (0° Aries) and Mars is at 15° Aquarius (a so-called 'critical degree'), adding to a tearful experience and facing losses here and there.
Indeed, there can be news about the sudden death, leave-taking, downfall or departure of a male person.
Aside from this, it's a period reflecting lost love, unrequited love, and/or unfulfilled love longings.
Following astrometeorology, lots of precipitation still remains on the agenda here and there.
Mercury and the mean Lunar North Node meet at 9° Pisces around February 12.
This is a hectic period in time with lots of communication, talks, discussions and calls.
It promises to become a very restless, busy day with tension and stress.
Saturn enters Aries (the Vernal point) around February 13-14 and is in an applying conjunction to Neptune, indicating more lawlessness, rules that don't apply (to everyone), a lack of boundaries and/or morals, jobs being lost, crossing lines, fraud and bankruptcy.
Authorities, represented by Saturn, tend to cause more confusion and/or chaos by taking action.
Also, some VIPs, celebrities or other reference persons may abdicate, get fired, cross over or disappear (for whatever reason).
Following mundane astrology, Saturn at 0° Aries coincided with volcanic eruptions in the past.
The Sun at 27° Aquarius squares Uranus, its own dispositor around February 16, a very shocking and turbulent combination.
Moreover, the day after, around February 17, there is a Solar Eclipse at 28° Aquarius which means that Uranus rules this Eclipse in a challenging, disruptive way.
The days surrounding this Eclipse are all about renewal, renovation, reversals and regeneration (often in a shocking way).
According to Bernadette Bradly, the keen researcher and astrologer who researched Eclipses very well, this particular Solar Eclipse belongs to the 10 North Saros Series.
According to her research, the coming six months might be about communication and, at the same time, frustration or inhibiting events may come into the person's life via news, paperwork or a young person.
She continues to say the person may feel tired and drained, and this is therefore a good time to take things quietly and work through the difficulties at a time.
The day after, around February 18, Venus and the mean Lunar North Node meet at 9° Pisces while the Sun enters Pisces.
There is a gathering, a coming together.
Additionally, this is a very good day to listen to music or attend a concert.
Around February 20, Saturn and Neptune conjoin, still at 0° Aries.
As mentioned before, this once-in-a-lifetime conjunction marks the beginning of a new era that will be built on a new ideology that has to be formed yet (during the waxing phase of this aspect).
