Jupiter in Leo 2026

Jupiter in Leo brings the new Summer of Love in July-September 2026. It also helps you gain in one area of your life, where you are owed good karma from 18-19 years before. What's in store?

Jupiter, the lucky planet, is in his new sign of Leo for the first time in 12 years, starting on June 30th 2026. How will you benefit? Why can we expect the new Summer of Love, and why do children gain most of all?

  1. Looks like its in a way already happening for me. We just welcomed our 2nd baby 4 weeks ago. We moved to Melbourne in 2020 and till date i have always worked via fixed term contracts. I have now been offered an ongoing role in the organisation where i have been working on contract basis for the past 2 years. Financially our condition has improved since 2020, but certain relationships ( like say parents) is not what it used to be. We have been looking for a house to buy for past 18 months, we end up getting outbid on the ones we like. Will we be in luck next year?

    1. Congratulations on your new baby. The situation with your parents improves in three stages; near January 26th, February 14th and July 26th 2026. Late January, late February and late July also improve your finance and property choices in three stages. It’s hard to say more without knowing your partner’s chart, but from your point of view, 2026 will be a lot better than 2025. The second half of 2026 and first half of 2027 will be very helpful in terms of the children.

  2. 2025 has been a stressful year for me, with an unemployed husband searching for his next chapter and adult children looking for their path in life. I feel like I have just been keeping my head above water this year and trying to survive the many challenges I have had on a personal level, but also at the community/national level. I hope that 2026 brings forward movement and positivity in my life, my family and my community. Thank you for always giving me a different perspective on what is going on!

    1. Thank you. You are doing well with your husband between jobs and your grown-up children looking for a path. You are a Sun Scorpio woman as you know, with stelliums in Scorpio, Libra, Leo and Taurus. The financial tests and trials stop in April. We don’t know why. No more having to juggle all the time with constant changes – from price rises, to income, to bills. Instead, from April, and peaking with a decision in May, June 2026, you are shown what it feels like to be free and independent, financially, or with a house or apartment, possessions and valuables. You will have to pay for that, in a way, but feel it is worth paying for the space. There will be a break with the past, in terms of him and the children, or any other family members involved with your money or home. Decisions about the actual family and home come sooner in January and February 2026, when there will be a change in the balance of power. Your willpower will empower you in those two months and give you tremendous strength and clout. Run your own show. This may pull in questions about the house or apartment, or other family members. If there is a power struggle ahead, try to anticipate it now and minimise the stakes so it’s a card game, not some all-or-nothing contest. The instability and uncertainty with him, also stops from April. This looks like an Easter for you which is about more than eggs. The children are obviously such a concern too. The confusion stops in late January. The restrictions stop in late February. You are up for a hugely improved time with them and for them (and other children, teenagers and so on) from July 2026 to mid 2027. Happy New Year.

  3. This is exciting and thank you, Jessica! I am a Taurus Sun with Mercury at 5 Gemini, Juno at 29 Leo, Chiron at 4 Cancer, Panacea at 6 Libra, and Apollo at 5 Virgo. What would Jupiter’s aspects to these natal placements bring to my life in 2026-27? I love what you’ve written on the concept of the sacred geometry of astrology and I’ve been going through your older posts to understand the patterns in my chart. I’d be very grateful to hear from you! Merry Christmas x

    1. Merry Christmas. You take your name from my favourite Tibetan goddess. Thanks also for the compliment, I am glad you are interested in sacred geometry. It’s fascinating. You are a Sun Taurus woman as you know, with stelliums in Taurus, Capricorn, Gemini and Cancer, along with those natal aspects. A radical change to your life budget begins in April when you put price tags on being free and independent. This goes on for many years into the future, past 2030, when you realise you have space and autonomy, although you trade predictability for it. Do pursue your way with words, ideas and images until June 2026 for something really big; it may be media, web, education or publishing. You will renovate, redecorate, move or even emigrate following incredible opportunities in 2026, with results by 2027 at the very latest.

    1. In your previous lifetime you were a leader, authority, captain, royal (even), chief and so on – dealing with the group. In this lifetime you have the same issues; how to be King Arthur with the knights of the round table. Or, how to be a knight dealing with King Arthur! This comes back to you in a really obvious way, starting in July 2026 and by 2027 you will have gained enormously from the luckiest combination of circumstances which allows you to clear old karma but also gain from your past life. You know a thing or two about the leader/group scenario and it will come back to your benefit.

  4. I could not be happier to read this article – for all children, including mine. Thank you, Jessica x ps/i have Saturn in Leo and my youngest was born with her Moon exactly conjunct my Saturn! She will start nursery at some point in the Jupiter in Leo cycle once we make a big cross country move to where I believe our family will flourish. Very excited for this cycle!

    1. Amazing to have your child with her Moon in a conjunction with your Saturn. Her own children (or the children and young people she takes on board in her life) will always reflect her own experience with you. Jupiter transiting your natal Saturn and her Moon at the same time, suggests a rare expansion of your world as mother and child, with great benefits if you take the solutions and opportunities. What seemed so restricted or ring-fenced, no longer feels that way. She is very young but she may acquire a younger friend; a pet; something else to look after (a toy) and so on. It is entirely possible a new baby lands in both your worlds.

  5. I am a female Leo sun with a stellium of 9 Leo placements. At the ripe old age of 64 I’m on a new career trajectory. I’ve always known I had a gift for writing. After taking it more seriously in 2022, I’ve won spots in prestigious workshops and a big monetary fellowship. I’ve applied to one very huge, almost impossible, life changing university fellowship, that if I get it would require me to relocate from Missouri to California, and place my career on a much higher level. The fellowship winners will be announced late March, early April, and the fellowship begins in August, my birthday month. After years and years of financial and emotional struggle and hardship, especially the last 18-19, I feel like 2026/2027 will be the beginning of a massive second act for me. Will the collection of short stories I’m working on get published and become a big deal? Will my heart find love and a home in a long term, committed relationship?

    1. Congratulations on your professional and academic success. You want to publish your short stories and have a bestseller or critical acclaim. You also want love. You will in fact be on a brand new path as student, teacher, publisher and author following two developments in late January, then late February 2026. It will involve foreigners and foreign countries; very likely, translation or another accent. For years into the future you will take a holiday from reality, by writing stories, scripts, poems, books (and the rest, even game scripts) well past 2030. Your best market is actually children, teenagers or Generation Z. Maybe you already discovered that. If not it is yet to come, after July 2026. Your next partnership will be with a person who shows you how to balance real power between you. It will be hard work, like working with nuclear powered scales, but if you two can manage it you will be a power couple. Stay open to that. Next window? January, February 2026. I strongly recommend you try Astrology Delivery.

  6. im a sagittarius sun and have prosperina hygeia and my ascendant in leo, how might this transit effect me, thank you.

    1. You are in a great position to gain from Jupiter’s trine to your Sun, but mainly your Leo factors in the Fifth House of courtship, bedroom, babies, infants, schoolchildren, teenagers and young adults. Meanwhile in your public Fifth House we find Saturn and Neptune. You don’t say if you are in a couple or not, or have children or not. If you are – and do – then late January and late February mark the start of a totally new chapter in your life when you accept a waiting game and test of patience, but also understand you will be shown a way out of reality too. It’s a bit like enrolling for adoption (long time to wait) but meanwhile, entertaining children in the local library dressed as a fairy. Over in your birth chart, you were always born to be queen to a younger court, one way or another, and you will take the sceptre, crown and orb from July 2026.

  7. Greetings Jessica, we recently moved for our children. Can you please take a peek at my birth chart and share what you see in regards to my Leo factors and my Sun Sign? Feeling the pressure post move and praying 2026 brings stability and calm. Wishing you the best in 2026.

    1. Thank you. You are a Capricorn woman, as you know, with stelliums in Capricorn, Libra and Cancer. All the cardinal signs. You are heavily cardinal, as they say. Using your public and private chart together to see where the action is, it is most definitely in your partnership. You will go on expanding as a couple until June next year, when any issues can be easily resolved and the focus is on becoming bigger and better, as a pair, than you could ever be, by yourselves. There are two gear changes with the new home and the family – one in the final week of January, another in the third week of February. From that point on you realise there will be heavy restrictions, a test of your patience and a ring-fenced situation. Yet you will also be given an escape, a holiday from reality and a way out at the same time. You’ll do one, then turn to the other, then do one, and … on it goes.

  8. Thank you Jessica another brilliant article, Ive got my fingers crossed for the summer of love, could certainly do with some, been on my own for a very long time.

    1. You have a Libra stellium, which Jupiter will sextile nicely, mid 2026 to mid 2027, so the potential for a proper partnership with your equal is there. Later on, Jupiter actually goes through Libra, so you are looking at one opportunity after another, over the next few years, to start a partnership, build one and even make it legal.

  9. Hello Jessica, Thank you for the lovely article. I have 3 Leo factors such Jupiter at 11, South Node at 2 and Proserpina at 25 degrees. My biggest wish is to become a mother next year. My sun is in Scorpio and seems that my career, job will be impacted. Hope that the coming period will be a better one. Any insights will be really appreciated. Best regards.

    1. If you are ever going to become a mother (of any kind; biological, adoptive or fostering) it will be 2026-2027 when your chances are at a 12- year high. This shows up in both your Scorpio solar chart and your natal chart. You have your Jupiter Return in Leo in your Fifth House of babies, infants, schoolchildren, teenagers and young adults. Luck’s in. The child/children which come into your life by 2027 if you take the opportunity will have known you before in your last incarnation.

  10. Thank you Jessica, you have certainly brightened up my day 🙂
    Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year x

  11. Great post Jessica, thank you for sharing your knowledge as always. I’m curious what Jupiter in Leo may bring me, since I have mars, psyche and cupido in Leo in my chart (no children or close children in family, work etc). I’m also wondering how this full moon in Gemini will affect me as I have only one placement in Gemini but I my mars in Leo is at a close degree to this full moon. Thank you again and thank you for your 2026 report. I’ve only just started reading it but it’s already interesting.

    1. Thank you. First up, this Full Moon is a Grand Cross, so you may prefer to avoid big crossroads decisions towards the end of this week as you go into it. If you take any path then you may find it is far more challenging than you realised so if you can defer a decision, it will be a lot easier. We can’t always do that on a Full Moon, but if you must go ahead, give yourself more time and space to take any road which would change your plans, then. Jupiter will pass over that Leo pattern enabling you to take full advantage of a new role with children or younger people; it may be voluntary (a children’s charity) or you may find a friend makes you a godparent; dating a person with one or more children from a failed marriage or other relationship is also possible for you. This would be obvious from July 2026 and take you into 2027.

  12. Hi Jessica, Quick one; I have Jupiter at 24 Cancer (Uranus also) Rising Sign Pluto in Leo at 24 degrees. What do you see for me in 2026. I’ll be launching a holistic human augmentation initiative then. As always, your insight is so valuable. Warm wishes. Emma x

    1. Your Jupiter Return in Cancer in the Fourth House is the opportunity, to take a rare opportunity – regarding your house, garden, apartment, family, household, town and country. So, for example, you may be able to buy a really desirable piece of real-estate at a knocked-down price; take advantage of free gardening; be put in touch with the right handyman; build your finances so you can afford overdue home improvements; see political changes which make you feel far more at home with your country; see big changes in your town, local area or country which make it a nicer place to be – and so on. I can’t see a chart here, so can’t comment on your business I’m afraid. Thank you.

  13. Hi Jessica,
    Love reading your articles and do take notice of what you say.
    I have 6 Leo stelliums in my 5th house and looking forward to 2026/7 and building relationships. I feel i have a lot to learn regarding what i say to my son whom i have a great relationship with but i do go on amount finances and health issues far too much. He is over weight and knows it and just worry it will affect him as he gets older (now 38). Born 25/10/87 in Peterborough, UK.
    Kindest regards

    1. Thank you. You are worried about your son, but he will gain access to Wegovy, Ozempic or other weight loss injections if he is prepared to put in the effort and could lose all the health risks July 2026 to July 2027 as a result. You are strongly Leo so ‘king to a younger court’ and your son really is the heir to your throne. However you will also find other younger generations give you rewards in the second half of next year ongoing; there may be a birth, for example, or you will find yourself playing that king role to other people’s offspring. It will be hugely fulfilling if you take the opportunity.

  14. This is exciting and thank you Jessica! I am a sun in Cancer with Leo factors, what can I expect from this transit? Maybe some good news regarding my 21 year old son who wants to study, doctor of medicine in Melbourne in 2027?DOB 15/4/2004.
    Or have, at last my house sold??

    thank you!
    Marina

    1. You will sell your house and/or buy another home in 2026 following a chain of decisions made in January, February, July, August. Your son has three decisions to make about academia; one in January, another in February and the final choice in July 2026.

  15. Hi Jessica,

    I have a Leo stellium (among other stelliums in cancer, scorpio, taurus). What does life have in store for me?
    2025 has been the happiest and the most difficult year in my life (adopted my son and lost my dad, hard time with work and lack of social and love life). All this while in perimenopause and being a single parent. I haven’t lost hope though and hoping for the best.
    Thanks so much

    1. I am sorry you lost your father. You’ve not let the lack of a partner stop you adopting, but what’s in store for 2026? Like all Sun Cancerians you have taken the first steps towards a completely different financial, property and family (or partner) situation with Pluto transiting your Eighth House. This shows up in your birth chart too. Money is the main story next year, with opportunities to make or save quite a lot of money, beginning in July and final results by the middle of 2027. You will need to sign or accept signatures in January, February, regarding your family circle so make sure the compromise or deal is one you can live with.

  16. Hi Jessica- I am excited for next year!
    What does this mean for me? I don’t have any children but I am still looking for the right partner and more opportunities financially.
    Thank you.

    1. Like all Sun Cancer women you are well-known for leading with feelings and emotions. You go with your heart. Your next partner will indeed be a financial and/or real-estate partner too. You could easily go into a new relationship in January, February 2026 – it not, chances to enter into a partnership would be there every year, ongoing and usually in Christmas and New Year party season. Make sure that anything is agreed formally (don’t just move in together) and that you understand the law as it relates to possessions, bills, assets, property and so on, as there is always a risk or power and control issues, ongoing. With care, though, you can transform your current situation into one which is empowered and empowering, if you apply your willpower, too. Understanding that the reins have to be shared is step one.

  17. Hi Jessica, Thank you for another great insight to 2026. I am a Sun Capricorn woman and I am wondering about the Juptier & Mars conjunction at 25 Leo on the 16th November 2026 as Jupiter and Mars will also be in conjunction my natal Uranus at 25 Leo. My husband (also Sun Capricorn) and I are hoping that our business will be sold and settled by Sept/Oct 2026 and that we will then be free to travel and or have a new project or just to chill a bit before taking anything else on. Thank you for these comment feedbacks it is really lovely to see the interaction with everyone.

    1. Thank you; I am glad you enjoy reading the comments – they are the second half of any feature. Real-time, real-world astrology! The financial decisions will unfold in January and February when you two will figure out the controls very differently, both with each other and a third person or third party organisation. This is transformation writ large and it will take you a few weeks, but the deal or compromise will hopefully be something you can live with. Just skip the eclipse, please. The 16th, 17th, 18th February is best avoided for any fork in the road as you would be driving without headlights, financially speaking. Real-estate is also a major part of your decision making and again it looks like January, February. It would not be a huge surprise if you bought or invested and took on a heavy long-term repayment commitment or some other long-term plan. You will make or save a lot of money after July 2026 if you take the opportunities, as late as mid 2027.

  18. Hello Jessica!
    I have lots of Leo in my Leo sun/rising/venus/uranus chart! I wish I had things in the works..but mostly I try to help out our grown children. Hope to have a good year with Jupiter! (it is in Sag in my natal chart)

    Happy Holidays!

    1. Merry Christmas. Your adult children may present you with a grandchild in 2026, 2027 or you will be asked to lead, inspire and mentor younger people in another way. This may be as a teacher, even if the role is unofficial. Jupiter is an ancient symbol of empire-building, growth and largesse and to experience this transit in such a strongly Leo chart is something you won’t forget. He was last here, some 12 years prior so acorns you planted then will become mighty oaks.

  19. Hi Jessica,

    I have Uranus,Jupiter(return) and Pluto in Leo. In the last five Jupiter in Leo transits have brought changes of residences along with relocations. There have been very beneficial changes but some mixed with difficult situations. I am looking forward to a new residence, relocations-even foreign relocation- along with a new personal relationship and hopefully an upgrade to financial security, With all the outer planet changes to new signs can you provide some insight into this Jupiter in Leo transit for me.

    Thanks and Happy Holidays!

    1. Thank you GB. If you are going to move, it will be January and February 2026. You could easily emigrate, though, and that is a different story, starting quite suddenly in April and then a reality by July, if you still want to move abroad. Long-term it will be foreigners and foreign countries that sets you free and gives you so much more space and independence. You also want love. The chance to be with someone who has children from another relationship, or wants to have children (or perhaps adopt them, or foster them) is here for many years into the future. It would transform your life. Financial instability stops in April.

  20. Hello Jessica,
    As a Libra with my ASC in Leo, what does this cycle look like for me? I’m in limbo as I was laid off this week, replaced by someone 15 years younger and way better looking. Not the experience, skillset or education but adept at flattery and ingratiation. I was told I wasn’t creative though my work and imagery drew high praise from editors in my business. I also found out my boss had been lying to HR about my work having errors and being poor quality though it “eventually worked out.” I believe he was trying to trump up falsehoods to avoid an age discrimination lawsuit. But the thought that he is undermining my professionalism to my ex-colleagues and now people in my industry is so demoralizing. I worked very hard with very few resources and created successes in difficult situations and this is an injustice.
    When I challenged those allegations with HR no one could produce an iota of evidence of poor work. Now with student loans to repay and high health / medicine costs I’m wondering what I can do to help myself. I would deeply appreciate your opinion.

    1. I am sorry you were laid off. Your employer sounds appalling, as does Human Resources. You have expenses, too. This situation ends in three stages. January, February, July 2026. You have a gift for detail; a strong work ethic; a nose for facts and a willingness to fit into any successful system. You will make up for lost time in 2026 with a new job or role; a fresh project; a far clearer existence. In fact, you have a fantastic opportunity for success staring you in the face, as you may already know and should take every solution offered to you by June 2026.

  21. Hi, Jessica. I’m so glad to hear about the positive developments regarding children and young people in the new year; it has been a long time coming. I hope this new phase includes exposure and public accountability for powerful people who mistreat children, and those who cover for them.

    As it happens, I have a situation involving a young person—my Gen Z son (b. 9/24/01–although I think you would write it as 24/9/01). Several months ago, our gregarious go-getter of a son had a full-blown mental health crisis, involving anxiety, depression and OCD. You see, as a child, he suffered a traumatic illness that lasted for months, and during which he spent weeks in the hospital. He made a full recovery and appeared to adjust well (he received counseling and therapy at the time). However, all the frightening memories and emotions he suppressed in childhood have started bubbling to the surface, now that he’s matured enough to begin facing them. It’s classic PTSD, and I understand it’s not uncommon in young adult survivors of childhood trauma.

    He’s been moved back home, working remotely, and getting better with treatment; but it has taken a huge toll on everyone, and has at times dented our previously close relationship. been rough, and has taken a tollhe’s old as a child, and although he made a full recovery, he has in the past dealt with anxiety (for which he received therapy). Earlier this year, during a period of job stress, he had a mental health crisis that turned out to be PTSD; I understand this is common in young adults who have suffered childhood trauma, once they are old enough to begin processing their past experiences and memories and emotions that were suppressed in childhood begin bubbling to the surface.

    He moved back home for a few months, where he has been working remotely and doing much better with treatment; but it’s been painful and difficult, not only for him, but for us (his parents) too.

    I hope for healing for my son in the new year, as well as family healing, reconciliation and restoratio of his relationships and his future. Do you see anything in our charts? I only have one Leo factor, my descendant at 13 degrees. Thank you so much.

    1. Yes, the Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell tragedy involves some rich, powerful and famous people who are going to go down. The elite forget how powerful a group of women can be, together. Classic Leo weather. Leo rules children and teenagers, as you know and you also have a Generation Z child who is facing challenges. He has Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and has had anxiety and depression after the childhood trauma of long hospitalisation. He was born on the 24th of September 2001 and gets better in stages. First January, then February and finally July. For you, the story is shown by the huge Cancer stellium in your Fourth House of home and family, which includes the node. You knew him in your previous life and have made a soul contract with him, to go through this chapter, in order to obtain spiritual close with the past. The good news is, Jupiter with all his solutions, will continue to go through Cancer and your Fourth House until June 2026. You will be given one opportunity after another to see answers here, not just with him, but also with his father and in fact the whole family. This may in fact be an entire family story, in the end.

  22. Hi Jessica
    I have Vesta 3 Leo and Venus 26 Leo
    My son and myself have just gone through break up, but in very different way. He has gone back where I have not. I am loving my freedom at the moment

    1. If your birth time is accurate then your MC or Midheaven in Leo suggests you reach your highest achievement as a parent, godparent, aunt, uncle, grandparent – or teacher, professor, children’s entertainer, youth advocate and so on. Monarch to a youthful court. A big new role in this regard is coming. You may be asked to lecture at a university, for example, or you may find yourself becoming an aunt, or a godmother. The cycle ends, mid 2027.

  23. Hi Jessica, thank you for this post. It’s come at the right time. You have said in your past comments that June 2026 is when I have the best chance of adopting. Given my husband is Aries and based on what you say here it gives me hope. But I have to say from where I am today adopting after trying to do so for almost four years seems a distant pipe dream. We’ve had possible children’s profile come to us in the past year, only to fade away. The emotional upheaval has been challenging to say the least. As I mentioned before our adoption approval window here runs out in March 2026. It’s your comments and this post which have kept me going. I’m keeping my intentions and praying and staying open to the universe.(What’s interesting is I have been referring to the Summer of Love over the past few weeks, clearly I picked up on something)

    1. Thank you. I am sorry the adoption process has been so disappointing. Yes, you are now in your luckiest cycle in 12 years to successfully adopt. It begins in July 2026 and runs until the middle of 2027. Your approval window runs out in March 2026 but the astrology has other things in mind; for whatever reason, it becomes easier for you to pursue parenthood, or substitute parenthood, from July and August. Opening up to other options as well, like becoming godparents, aunts, uncles or fostering is wise as it allows the universe to compose different answers for you. Yet Jupiter in the Fifth House is always, always, about the expansion of babies, children or young people in your life; they grow in number or they fulfil you in other ways.

  24. Hi Jessica love your posts.
    I’m a sun Libra with stelliums in Capricorn, Leo, Libra, Taurus, Scorpio and Cancer.
    My step daughter is expecting a baby next year so my husband and I will be grandparents! What does next year mean for me?

    1. Thank you. Congratulations on the new grandchild. There will be a change in the balance of power and with careful tackling, self-control and willpower, you can find yourself with far more influence and control as a result of your new role. You will be a baby sitter of the future, for a start and of course may be able to help out financially. It is very important that you understand the stakes with your step daughter and her own parents, of course, as you do not want to walk into any sort of power struggle; anticipating and knowing in advance is useful. It means you can sidestep any potential issues.

  25. Dear Jessica, thank you again for your knowledge and insight. I am Leo Sun at 3, Leo Vesta at 3, Leo Proserpina at 8 and Apollo at 26. I’m very excited for next year and beyond, after a really tough few years…..final Court hearing for divorce in about April 26 ….and then I’m finally free!!! Saturn and Neptune leaving my 8th House will hopefully help with the proceedings (I might finally get some clarity and the restrictions stop!) Your astrology really has helped me through the hardest of years and lessons, and I really do appreciate your wisdom and guidance ….it feels like so much is going to shift from this moment on and I can finally get back to my Leo self again ….with warmest regards Alexandra xxx

    1. Thank you Alexandra. Congratulations on your divorce coming through. I’m glad the astrology has helped. You have learned so much about the way power and control work in marriage and after summoning up so much self-control are slowly discovering what it feels like to have power of your own. You will ultimately form a new partnership with somebody who also empowers you and together you can become a power couple; that’s later on. Yes, the end of Saturn and Neptune in your Eighth House of joint finance and real-estate is also the end of confused boundaries (January) and finally heavy restrictions (February). Jupiter in Leo will pass over your stellium from July so you do have hope for the future in terms of a new relationship; there will be an opportunity there. There may also be a former wife or girlfriend; a daughter; competing women – be aware of that. Have a look at Vesta closer to the time.

  26. Hi Jessica!

    Thank you so much for this awesome blog post! I have been struggling for years with my ex husband and it’s now to the point where my children don’t want to live with him as his new wife has been horrible to them. My ex defends her which has caused a lot of emotional pain for my children and has left me to be both Mother and Father to my kids since September this year. I am a Libra but have both my moon and mars in Leo and my two children both have Leo Rising (Cancer Sun and Pisces Sun). Your post gave me hope that things will settle down for them. Their father has a big stellium in Aquarius (he’s an Aquarius Sun as well) and his wife is a Virgo.

    Is there anything you can see in my chart that shows my children finally getting justice? Financially I have been hit hard as I now stand for all costs related to my kids as the father refuses to help out financially at the moment.

    Thanks so much in advance for any insights you may have 🙂

    1. Thank you. I am sorry about your former husband and his wife; the children are saying a firm ‘No’ to that. You want justice in the situation and you also have financial problems, because he won’t pay. At 27, 28, 29 degrees, you have Uranus in Scorpio (family finance) triggering a wide pattern in your chart, tied to the children too. You were born with that so it never rains but it pours. The good news is, you are at an end with cycles at 27, 28, 29 and will sign off in stages; January, February then April 2026. Around Easter, the instability and constant challenge to change, regarding him, her and your children – and the money – will stop. We don’t know why. In 2027 Jupiter goes to 27, 28, 29 Leo and fixes a lot of issues for you.

  27. Hi Jessica, I’m a Sun in Taurus, with Leo in the 3rd house, Juno in Leo at 7° and Panacea in Leo at 16°.
    My husband and I will be together 40 years in january. He is also a Sun in Taurus and his ascendant is in Leo. Our eldest daughter has Leo in her 7th house, she wants her boyfriend to move in with her next summer and he probably will. Our youngest daughter has been quite challenged being on the spectrum, but doing better now that she turned 21 and living in protective living, she has Leo in her 6th house. For me that means I have more space for the first time in 21 years (still recovering from being a caretaker for so long).
    Could you say something about what the meaning of this transit is for us? Thank you!

    1. Congratulations on your long marriage. Your daughter doesn’t have Leo in her Seventh House using modern astrology; she has it in her Fifth House. Same with your youngest daughter; Leo is in her Fifth House. So I need to spin your chart. It’s all about future grandchildren and you will have an important discussion in July, August.

  28. Hi Jessica, hope you are well. I’m a Sagittarius Sun with a Leo moon at 3 degrees. How might my Leo and Sag factors be affected next year, please? Many thanks in advance.

    1. Nice to have a Leo Moon with Jupiter in Leo (transiting Jupiter in conjunction with natal Moon). Your maternal instinct is expressed through leadership and a rather regal approach to children, teenagers, young adults. Queen to a younger court. You can do this with or without children of your own; professors with students, for example. This role expands and grows in the most beneficial way in July, August 2026. You could easily have a new baby in your world or take up a new throne, sceptre and orb with the court. This also shows up in your Sagittarius solar chart; as early as January you will become aware of a younger generation offering you a holiday from the real world; from February this becomes a commitment you make, or a commitment imposed on you.

  29. Thank you for being the bearer of good news! We all need a ray of sunlight in this world. I am Taurus with Aquarius rising. I have been particularly worried about the health of my youngest child Who is Sagittarius with cancer rising. Any insights?

    1. The rising sign or Ascendant is the least important part of the chart – you actually gain more information from the Sun. You have karma with your youngest child, which stops in July 2026. You owe, or are owed, spiritually – from what happened 18 or 19 years before. Until then the situation is repetitive and circular, but you can also change your attitude towards it, becoming happier and more philosophical in the process. The family circle as a whole is well overdue for improvements and terrific solutions and opportunities come your way from July (again, that month). Your child has an unpredictable, erratic health cycle until April 2026 but then the situation settles down. We don’t know why yet.

  30. I truly enjoy reading your astrology articles and find your insights very accurate.
    As a Leo Sun, I’ve been eagerly awaiting this current cycle. I like working with my Placidus chart and my Solar chart, as they provide two different perspectives that resonate with me.I’m particularly interested in predictive astrology.
    Would you be willing to share your professional opinion on my chart, as well as the charts of my immediate family members, my partner, and my daughter?
    Thank you so much for your guidance, sending gratitude and love.

    Roanne

    1. Roanne, if you work with the Placidus house system, you are seeing your sex life through the eyes of a monk from the Middle Ages who had no contact with women, so good luck with that (!) Your daughter will do extremely well professionally, academically or personally in July, August next year and by July 2027 you will have a new role with children or teenagers, perhaps teaching them or guiding them in a more involved way. Queen to a younger court, sums it up. You always did that anyway even as a teenager yourself, being given a leading role with younger siblings, cousins or friends – or a prefect or captain/monitor role at school. All these years later you are given the sceptre again. A foreign country and its people will become a lasting holiday from reality for you, after January 2026 and for years into the future this parallel universe with another accent or language will be your great escape.

  31. Thank you Jessica,
    I have three placements in Leo: Pluto, Ascendant and Cupido. I would be most grateful if you would let me know what I can expect from these transits.
    Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and hopefully you will get some time to relax.
    M x

    1. Merry Christmas M. Our holidays begin in just a few days so we are looking forward to them. You’ve not said if you are single, married, in a relationship, have children or don’t – so it is hard to do more than generalise, but basically if you have godchildren you will see one of them become extremely successful in July, August 2026 and ongoing. If you are involved with a children’s project or organisation and always were, long-term, an achievement from that time will pay off again. If you are single you will meet somebody new or get back together with your ex.

  32. Hi Jessica, I’m a sun Taurus with Leo factors in Apollo and Cupid. Please could you have a look to see if there is anything that may happen next year with regards to my love life. I have been divorced/single for such a long time.
    Merry Christmas
    Kindest regards
    Lucy

    1. Merry Christmas, Lucy. You are up for a new romance from July 2026 right through to July 2028 actually, and there may be more than one opportunity. Transiting Jupiter in conjunction with natal Cupido in particular is well-known for that, but even in your solar chart as a Taurus, a big door opens to your bedroom (or theirs) from mid 2027 to mid 2027 and this person may well come with a child from a previous relationship or want to involve you far more in the world of children or young adults, from their side. That would be really fulfilling for you.

  33. Hi, thank you for your insight. My Leo husband and I made it through the last couple of years – barely. Still on shaky ground. I can’t tell if it’s going to last. We continue to struggle with intimacy in all areas. Is there any indication in my chart? Thank you.

    1. He has decisions to make about the balance of power with you in January, February 2026 and how the controls are to be shared. You are a Sun Libra, with stelliums in Libra, Scorpio and Leo. You don’t say if you have children or not. Any children would be at the heart of what you decide to do in those two months of the new year. If you part company, then once you are past 2027, you are on your way to a completely different sort of relationship which would be an escape from the real world; a holiday from the everyday. From April 2026 you will find you know where you stand, at long last, in what is basically a financial and sexual contract that is not adding up for you. From Easter next year the constant lack of guarantees and knowns, stops. That will help a lot.

  34. Hi Jessica,
    Thank you for another great article. As we are all probably feeling, the world could definitely use this rebooted, upcoming Summer of Love! I’m glad you’ve predicted this & put it out to the masses now – as I’m sure it will give people hope, collectively.
    I have my ASC in early Leo, as well as Saturn 12° and Pallas 21°. As a Leo rising with a moon that trines my ASC that’s ruled by Jupiter, I’ve always been deeply affected by the sun and moon’s energy exchange. I have a lot of factors in Aquarius with an important sextile to Libra and two trines, one from Leo to Aries and another to Sag. Additionally, many important factors & asteroids on the Taurus/Scorpio axis. Can you please help me decipher how my important Leo factors bring me gains during the transiting 2026-2027 Jupiter in Leo conjunctions, as well as, through the trines and sextiles despite the oppositions in Aquarius? Thank you!

    1. Thank you. Yes, children and teenagers are long overdue for justice in what has been a dreadful time for them and their rights, but it’s on the way, thanks to various legal processes written in the stars. You’re using Pallas, which won’t work with a modern astrology chart, but the rest of your natal horoscope shows your Sun in Aquarius – with stelliums in Aquarius, Aries, Libra – drives a fiery, airy life and woman. You don’t say if you are in a partnership or not, but from July 2026 one begins, or expands. In fact there may be multiple partnerships of different kinds which take off at that time, thanks to both your solar and natal chart Seventh House transits. Oppositions from Jupiter are uncomfortable but beneficial, so if you were with a new partner from July, August next year it might feel too big, too much for a time. The other obvious thing is a relaunch of your name, face, shape, style, brand, reputation over many years, with a couple of image changes. Name or title change is typical; a dramatic weight loss is another example, or cosmetic surgery and so on. Again both charts show this. It starts in January, February 2026.

  35. Thank you, Jessica, for this lovely article on Jupiter in Leo, my rising sign. Hope for all the children worldwide.

    During the previous cycle of the lunar nodes in Leo, I made a large real estate transaction and got married after nearly 10 years of living together. I’m still married to this day 🙂 My husband has his Sun and Saturn in Leo.

    In July 2027, I will have completed my second year (out of three) of training in Qi Gong, Tai Chi, and Chinese medicine. Could this Jupiter transit be related to that? Or is it related to my health/physical appearance following the training? I am a Taurus Sun with placements in fire signs. Thank you in advance for your insight.

    1. Thank you. Yes, we hope for long overdue improvement for children on our planet. They’ve been treated shabbily by some adults, haven’t they. I’m glad you checked back in with your own history; that is always the first step in predicting the future. It’s amazing how many people don’t do it. Congratulations on your wedding anniversary too. You are looking at Jupiter in Virgo with your timing, which is perfect for becoming a professional in your chosen field. So mid 2027 to mid 2028 you will find everything starts to take off. You may end up working with children or young adults, or perhaps find a child or young adult comes into your personal life in a hugely fulfilling new way.

  36. Hi Jessica. I have a large stellium in Leo (8 factors, including my South Node)) so I was very excited to read about Jupiter going into Leo next year.
    How can I make the most of this transit, please?
    Thanks for all the help you give.

    1. You won’t have to do very much at all, after July, except take the obvious solution or opportunity offered. The last time Jupiter transited Leo was from July 16th, 2014, until August 11th, 2015. You planted acorns then which are becoming oaks, from the middle of 2026. Have a look at old emails or letters from that time, as what happened then, will happen again, but advancing everything in one more gigantic leap. So, for example, small boys who were children then, may come back into your life in a big new way. Or, the tiny godchild you gave a poetry book to for Christmas, may become a poet herself, making you proud. An old boyfriend from 2014, 2015 may come back into your life in a better new way – or you may find the type repeats – so if he was a well-heeled, well-established person (say, in business) with a university degree, a similar sort of cove may turn up this time. If he wanted to get married last time and offer you his home then something similar may be on offer again, now. And so on.

  37. Hi Jessica
    Thank you for the article. I have no Leo factors but a Leo spouse with Leo factors. I’m developing a paired project: one side is about AI + human decision-making, the other about nervous-system and emotional resilience. Both are meant to help people stay steady and clear in chaotic times. I have already started writing and recording on a platform we all know and love. I am having fun and hope it comes to be something people can find useful. Spouse is Leo 29 Sun, 18 Mercury, 15 vesta 27 MC, 19 Prosperina and he has his own transformation hopefully occurring.

    1. Thank you. Your husbands chart is actually about the children (if you have them) or his younger godchildren, nieces or nephews and he will find this enormously fulfilling from June next year; sometimes the role can be professional or voluntary, not personal, so he may be lecturing the young, for example, or employing young adults. Most commonly it is about small children, though, in the family circle. The former project (A.I.) is the one that will take off, from April next year, with another spike in June. If you stay on that path the wildly unpredictable nature of A.I. will reward you if you constantly adapt and adjust to what is going on. In its current form, it will not last. In fact there will be several corporate collapses. A.I. itself is the very definition of unpredictable and oddly, it will end up shocking itself – as an entity! I am sure you know that already in your work.

  38. Hi Jessica and thank you for this!
    My heart is with my son who is applying for college and he just got a first rejection. I am very anxious about his wellbeing and about the results, and he is too. I am hoping that this Leo cycle will indeed signal a golden age for him, he is also an Aries, like myself, with Aries Moon and Mercury, and Jupiter and Saturn in Capricorn. I have raised him by myself, so the bond is strong, any insights would be helpful during this time of anxiety, next results for his first choice college will be in within the next ten days.
    Thanks and happy holidays!
    Chloe

    1. Merry Christmas Choe. I am sorry your son was rejected. You are a single parent so very close to him. He will find out where he stands from around Boxing Day to February 2026 and make up his mind. He is set for stunning success academically or with work, actually, if he takes the opportunities available mid 2027 to mid 2028. Try not to fret too much about what is happening; you should end up with a spare room, which you can do interesting things with. Long-term he will gain from A.I. and from always being at the cutting edge of the worldwide web, too.

  39. Hi Jessica! Seriously stoked for next year, as my ascendant is Leo, and I’ve got a stellium. The last 6-7 years have been a real learning curve to say the least–so trying. Will I finally be able to breathe, relax, and enjoy? Thanks for whatever insight you have! And I hope the season is spectacular for you and yours.
    ~D

    1. Merry Christmas. You are a Sun Taurus woman with a Leo stellium so it looks like mid 2026 to mid 2027, then mid 2027 to mid 2028, are all about the growth of a sexual relationship/s and the expansion of children or young adults in your world. A new addition to the family circle seems very likely. If the last seven years has been trying, you’re really talking about 2018-2024 which is the Uranus in Taurus cycle. Instability with your job title, perhaps a married surname, is common. That stops in April. You finally know who you are at least in terms of image or profile.

  40. Hi Jessica

    I’m a Sun Leo with stelliums in Virgo, Aquarius and Scorpio. I’ve never had children myself but am very close to my niece, who is also a Sun Leo. She has had a lot of work pressure recently where she has sought my advice so hopefully things will improve for her. For my part, I have just had a children’s book published and have taken the decision to invest in marketing activity, the cost of which I hope to recoup through increased sales. How do you see this panning out for me please? Thank you.

    1. You are a classic Sun Leo writer with stelliums in Leo and Virgo, like J.K.Rowling. Leo and the Fifth House are associated with nieces, but also with children’s books. Financially, things change in three stages. From January you lose the confusion over boundaries. From February you lose the heavy restrictions. From July you lose the repetition or loop/circuit in your life and can finally move onto quite a different financial future with opportunities to make or save a fortune (for whatever reason) from mid 2027 to mid 2028. Jupiter in Virgo then, suggests it will be the next book, not this one, but perhaps a spin-off, like the sales or film or television rights, for example. Mid 2027 to mid 2028 is very special.

  41. Hi Jessica may I ask about my son – you have his chart – he will start making Uni applications next year. He is bright and could try for Maths in Oxford/Cambridge. USA or even French in Uni in Switzerland. How can he decide and how can my husband and I support him in that decision? You have mine and my husbands chart too. Hubby can over-opine. I prefer it to be his own choice but he needs guidance. Ever grateful for your wisdom.

    1. You are an Aquarian woman with the South Node in Leo so knew your son in your last life. He may have been academically brilliant then, too. The choices for him will begin in April when you will be independent from him, at the same time that he breaks with the past too. What happens will be quite sudden yet by July you will realise that freedom has to be respected, both for yourself and your son. So it’s not about Oxford, Cambridge, America or Switzerland – it is really about what would liberate you as a parent. What happens will be quite unpredictable.

  42. Wow great intel thanks so much as always Jessica. I have a fair few things in Leo:
    Sun 24
    Moon 3
    Venus 3
    Bacchus 0
    I think. panacea 4
    what might be in store?
    Thanks so much, Alex.

    1. Thanks Alex. You don’t say if you are in a relationship or not, or have children or not. Your chart is strongly Scorpio too (sexual and financial relationships; family agreements over real-estate) so there will be a huge expansion of your life in the bedroom, at the same time that you find wide fulfilment with your own or other people’s children. The only issue is, it may be hard to square with what is happening in terms of the money, house or apartment. If you were marrying, for example, you would want a pre-nup. If you were moving in with his children, you would want a written agreement.

  43. Hi Jessica, thanks for another great post. I have a Leo stellium with Jupiter in Leo. I also have my Saturn return in Aries. How will this play out together .. do they affect each other please? I am married with 2 young adult children one of who was married last year. Thank you so much .

    1. It’s very likely you will become a grandmother, as Jupiter in Leo transiting the Fifth House expands the court. Your Leo stellium and Jupiter Return in Leo promises even more than grandchildren, though, as there would be a second role with a younger generation which expands your world and is hugely fulfilling for you. The Saturn Return in Aries is about your reputation, personal appearance and title and research and preparation are the keys to that; it begins in February and is with you in 2026, 2027 so if it’s in the mirror or on Google, you need to do your homework before you begin to sign off on life choices.

  44. Thank you for your reply, Jessica.
    And yes, the AI work I’m doing is designed specifically to be used in tandem with humans, not as a replacement or runaway adjunct. The entire point is to strengthen human judgment, not to override it.
    I’m treating AI as a tool that needs emotional context, ethical guardrails, and continuous human interpretation. Which is exactly where your point about “AI shocking itself” resonates. The technology keeps mutating, but the human layer is what makes it meaningful and safe.So your timing advice is reassuring. I’m adapting as it changes, and I’m building something intentionally human-centered so it can evolve right alongside all the unpredictability you mentioned.

    1. I am sorry you are unhappily married. You will find Jupiter in Leo, in your Fifth House, but also in the Fifth House of so many other people around you, is a great remedy, mid 2026 to mid 2027. We will see a lot of separations and divorces, but also new commitments at the same time, as people swap bad relationships for better ones; Jupiter will sextile the Libra (commitment) factors of so many more people too, thus the Summer of Love kickstarts a lot of closed, but new and opening doors, by mid 2027.

  45. Ciao Jessica!
    So, I’m trying to decode what the universe has planned for me.
    Here’s my cosmic cocktail: Sun 9°04’ in Cancer, ASC Leo 3°27’, Moon 13°29’ in Scorpio, Mercury 17°40’ in Gemini, Venus 6°46’ in Gemini, Mars 13°04’ in Libra, Jupiter 0°27’ in Scorpio, Saturn 15°38’ in Libra, Uranus 1°11’ in Sagittarius.
    I desperately want to change jobs but I can’t seem to find a better opportunity. I’m also hoping for a new love — I’m still crying over the guy who ghosted me in November 2024. Thank you so much for your time and whatever insight you can share!

    1. Thank you. As a Cancerian you are well and truly out of the most difficult love life cycle in 248 years, when Pluto transited your Seventh House and you came across power and control issues with boyfriends and dates. Ghosting, or ignoring people, is a rather dull example of this. People who rudely refuse to reply to emails, texts, telephone calls, letters, like to think they are in charge by doing so, and unfortunately it does happen on this transit. It stopped in November 2024 when he stopped. Don’t cry over him; he was a waste of time and in fact your chart shows that you need somebody who is far more interested in bonding with you over business, real estate, charity or finance. That is in your future. It will be some years away but you will very likely marry and bless the fact that you were single, so you could meet the man who understands the numbers as well as the hearts and arrows.

  46. Hi Jessica, as a Leo rising and sun sign and with a huge stellium in Leo, can you please share if you see positivity coming up in my life in terms of career, romance, and relationship with adult kids? And how long does that upward trend last? Does it go flat in mid 2027? Many Leos have struggled with their life since 2017 with things being completely topsy turvy and sometimes shocking and hurtful, and I am hoping that those experiences are a thing of the past never to surface again.

    1. Jupiter in Leo cycles are well-known for delivering opportunities for new romance and they open the door to people who add to your life; they may come with the offer of a property, for example, or prestige (their career) or their own academic background (they can educate you). They expand your world. You have adult children and Jupiter will help there too. Nothing goes flat, as you say, because Jupiter is not like a balloon which inflates then shrivels. It is more like an acorn which becomes a mighty oak and goes on offering you even more growth, every 12 years. Pluto in Aquarius in opposition to your Leo factors does rather suggest power and control issues with your children, though, or with the other parent. This can be sidestepped purely by being aware of the stakes and lowering them so you do not end up in some kind of complicated power play. Read widely around that as from 7 to 29 Aquarius, Pluto will be in opposition – this begins in a few years’ time. Understanding Pluto transits in opposition is halfway to getting through the cycles with a minimum of challenges. Should any of the adult children have children of their own, for example, you would want to go out of your way to avoid that cliche of grandparents versus parents, or grandparents different with in-laws!

  47. Merry Christmas Jessica, it’s always wonderful to read your post. The 7th house description you listed included ex-husbands. Which in turn made me curious about my Leo sun ex-husband. We divorced in 2006 after 23 years, and I have only been married once. We are friendly but haven’t spoken since 2016. At our last meeting, he did mention his failing health. 🙁

    I am open/looking forward to meeting my next marriage partner and would LOVE you to confirm my summer of LOVE !
    Could you please take a look at my chart. My Leo factors Apollo 9 Rx, Uranus 19 Rx, Hygeia 25. And btw I caught your cu about being single and “not being perfect”. Got it
    And lastly, do my Pluto and Jupiter add to this welcome change?
    Thank you

    1. Merry Christmas. It sounds as if your relationship with your former husband is overdue for improvement and Jupiter in Leo will bring that, as it starts in July, August 2026. You will be offered the opportunity to be with someone new from then until mid 2027. Uranus in Leo in the Fifth House is really about freedom, independence and plenty of space – sexually and emotionally – but particularly with your own or other people’s children. Jupiter going over Uranus will deliver the kind of relationship which makes that very clear, although it is likely to be quite unpredictable. Uranus in Leo is generational but it is also personal in your case so you were really made for highly unusual and unconventional liasons, rather than a conventional marriage. The door to another one is open to you.

  48. Hi Jessica
    Thank you. Can you tell me how I fair for 2026. I have stelliums in Leo. I havent had such a good 2025 so am hoping Jupiter in Cancer and then Leo will really be positive.

    1. Your stellium in Leo in the Fifth House is about being queen to a younger court and you have already tried different versions of this throughout your lifetime. This pattern shows up in childhood when a leadership role emerges, usually because of a younger sibling or cousin, or perhaps because of a particular friendship where you steer. Later on your career, academic career or any unpaid work allows you to explore how to lead, mentor and guide. (‘A perfect woman, nobly planned, to calm, to comfort and command’). This turns up again from summer 2026 until summer 2027 for all sorts of reasons. It may be a role as godmother or aunt. A child or teenager you have to play a special role with. Children or young adults en masse, whom you are closely involved with. The future looks very bright.

  49. Thanks Jessica. I am a Capricorn… and hoping I might be able to financially step away from full time job after June 2026. I have been putting off selling my London apartment to help fund this and writing my novel – as cost of living crisis. Do you see my jupiter in Leo helping with this?

    1. Jupiter in Leo will certainly help you financially as it transits your solar Eighth House. Jupiter always brings expansion, growth, solutions and hope for the future. The Eighth is about joint finance and property, usually with a partner or relative. Pluto in Aquarius is in your Second House of personal income for many years into the future so you do have an important decision to make in January, February 2026 when you realise that willpower (and nothing else) empowers you. Yet from July an obvious opportunity will be there. Your ambitions for publishing are best served by Jupiter in Virgo in your solar Ninth, so from mid 2027 to mid 2027. At the same time, Uranus in Gemini in your natal Third, is also off and running by then, so stay open to other mediums and formats beyond a traditional paperback novel.

  50. Dear Jessica thank you as always for tihs new information. Please tell me more about what it may bring to me.
    Have a wonderful day.
    S.

    1. You are a Sun Aquarius woman with a Libra stellium so do best in a partnership. You don’t say if you are married or single, but whatever duet is in front of you by August 2026 will be a huge source of growth and expansion for you right up until mid 2027.

      1. Dear Jessica,
        I am so grateful for every thing you share, I see it as both a precious warning and an advice.
        I’ve been divorced and alone for more than 10 years, it was extremely hard, specially on my children.
        I would love to improve that side of my life but it could be that this time it’s about my young adult boys and very young brother…
        God bless you.

        1. Thank you. You’re an Aquarian woman with a Libra stellium so in your solar and natal chart, you will be given new, rare opportunities (Jupiter in Leo) to form a good partnership (Jupiter in the solar Seventh) at the same time, opening up more equal duets (Jupiter sextile the natal Seventh) and expanding the range of possibilities – when you think about a legal bond (Jupiter sextile your Libra placements). It begins from June 30th 2026 and you have until the middle of 2027 to make your choice. The situation with the children radically changes after April 2026 and there is a break with the past by June that year which will set you and them free. Young adult sons have Independence Days ahead. So do you.

  51. Dear Jessica,

    Happy holidays and very best wishes to you for 2026.

    In 2026, I will continue to read your posts religiously. I have Cupido in Leo at 19, and found this post to be riveting.

    I intend to submit my DPhil dissertation anywhere between end of April and no later than mid-July 2026. Ideally, the viva is scheduled within 4 to 12 weeks after submission. I’d love to hear any advice you could give me on the process.

    I’m also a recovering survivor of narcissistic family scapegoating, and currently not clear on how my attempts to build fair family relations will pan out or if I’ll at least be able to develop nurturing and loving relationships with my nephews and nieces.

    Once the degree is in the bag, I very much wish to focus on finding love, and on creating an authentic, loving, stable, committed family of my own. I understand these are several large topics, so I do appreciate any guidance you could offer on any.

    Once again, all best for 2026.

    1. Thank you. Merry Christmas. Your timing is right with your dissertation and in fact you may find it has more power than you expected when you began, as it is the basis of quite new clout and influence for you, for many years into the future, as you develop your ideas, your written and spoken abilities and your way of delivering these. Jupiter is in Leo in your solar Ninth House of academia so mid 2026 to mid 2027 is a terrific period of expansion. The situation with the family clears up in January, when confusion ends and the burden is lifted in February. The karma is complete in July. After that you honestly won’t have to spend any more time and energy on your relatives. Your next partnership will arrive suddenly and unexpectedly and be liberating. Over the next few years, until 2033, that partnership may become a statement of your ability to invent, and go on reinventing, what a commitment should be. Alternatively it may be one of two, three or more partnerships you form over time, depending on your preference, each one so different to the last. I heard ‘husband’ for you clairaudiently. I am being shown books so like you, he is in academia or perhaps publishing.

  52. Hello Jessica, as always a very informative Astrology Blog. I really love your posts and learn so much.
    I’ve got a bit of Leo in my chart, and hoping my Karma from 19 years ago is good – and that there are good things ahead.
    Will finally be ready to start a major home renovation and wondering if this will be a good time to start.
    Very glad to see some positive astrology forecast for children. Just became a G’Ma for the first time.

    1. Thank you. The renovation will mostly concern you financially with your partner and anyone else in the family who is paying, but questions over that stop in January, then February. Congratulations on becoming a grandmother; you will really enjoy that role from summer 2026 until summer 2027 and there is a chance of another baby arriving in the family circle.

  53. Hi Jessica, thank you for sharing. I’m really looking forward to this ‘summer of love’ and Jupiter in Leo in general! What could it mean for me? I have moon conjunct the MC in Leo. Quite single, would love to be a mother, but also questioning my direction professionally as I’ve been out of work for a while. Thank you.

    1. Thank you. If your birth time is strictly accurate then you do indeed have a Moon-Midheaven (MC) conjunction at 3 Leo so were born to be queen to a younger court. Jupiter going to 3 Leo after changing signs on June 30th, 2026, will give you that opportunity. You may have a baby, marry a man with a child from a divorced marriage, teach or tutor younger people, become involved with a children’s project or cause and so on. It could easily be delivered through work, if you have been between jobs for some time. Jupiter and the Moon in conjunction in Leo are represented in fiction by Mary Poppins and in history by Good Queen Bess.

  54. Hi Jessica,
    As always, a great read with loads of insight.
    I’m Cancerian, and while you alluded to something interesting this week on the 10th (I have many factors at 27, 28 and 29), I’m hoping to enjoy the tail end of Jupiter in Cancer, though Jupiter in Leo sounds even better.
    My children are both Leos and both embarking on ‘Adulthood’, in very different ways. I can’t wait to see what they do.
    And to be honest, having Jupiter in my 2nd House will be a huge relief, as I’ve been carrying heavy financial burdens for nearly 20 years.
    I just want freedom to work and create. Thats all!
    Its interesting that you refer to J.K Rowling and her return to the Sun (not that she’s really left it, except for people who get angry on Twitter about the reality of men and women being clearly biologically defined!) with her new series; her most recent Robert Galbraith book “The Hallmarked Man” deals with trafficking of young women, an interesting synchronicity in your article. I wonder if Jo has an astrologer, or reads it for herself?
    Blessings to you, Jessica
    DinP xx

    1. Thank you DinP. Leo children and teenagers are interesting as their first lesson about leadership always comes with a younger sibling, cousin or younger people at school. You will find the second half of 2026 starts a rare financial chapter with Pluto’s offer of empowerment if you use willpower and Jupiter’s offer of ‘more’ which is always the solution you need or the growth you want. J.K.Rowling is familiar with astrology and famously hand-created a horoscope as a present for a friend; it turned up on Antique Roadshow a few years ago. I expect she’s completely aware of the transits. The way girls have been treated is shameful, from trafficking to trans extremism and that tide is turning.

  55. Hi Jessica, I hope you’re doing great. I’ll try this again. Thank you so much for this post. I’m really looking forward to Jupiter in Leo and the energy and renewal it brings. I have the North Node and Vulcano in Leo and would love to hear what I can expect. Thank you again for your insight!

    1. Thank you. Your North Node in Leo in the Fifth House and South Node in Aquarius in the Eleventh House suggest your last life was spent dealing with the conflicts in a group with leader issues. Or a leader with group issues. This is very common in army, navy or air force units but you can also find it in crews on ships, for example. It also turns up with football teams and captains, or trade unions and their leaders. You will already have met at least one person who has a soul contract with you, from that lifetime and you will classically find Leo-Aquarius turns up as an oddly familiar friend; a child; a teenager; a lover. Jupiter in transit will form a conjunction with your North Node and also Vulcano so there is an opportunity, quite rare, to address any issues and move on very successfully, should the usual leader/group situations arise.

  56. I can’t seem to reply to my message, so I’m doing it this way. I apologize if this is overloading your inbox. I’m blown away by what you wrote to me.
    It seems promising… especially since, during the previous cycle of the Lunar Nodes and Jupiter in Leo, I was in the middle of my PhD, which I obtained while Jupiter was in Virgo ! I then extended my schedule at university to full-time and conducted research at the hospital, developing diagnostic tools for screening for deafness in children and newborns. I also became pregnant that year.
    All what you wrote: becoming a professional in my chosen field, work with children, childs comes in my personal life.
    I’m impressed! Thank you Jessica.

    here are previous conversation that I have copied
    Emily
    Thank you, Jessica, for this lovely article on Jupiter in Leo, my rising sign. Hope for all the children worldwide.During the previous cycle of the lunar nodes in Leo, I made a large real estate transaction and got married after nearly 10 years of living together. I’m still married to this day My husband has his Sun and Saturn in Leo.In July 2027, I will have completed my second year (out of three) of training in ọi Gong, Tai Chi, and Chinese medicine. Could this Jupiter transit be related to that? Or is it related to my health/physical appearance following the training? I am a Taurus Sun with placements in fire signs. Thank you in advance for your insight.

    Jessica
    Thank you. Yes, we hope for long overdue improvement for children on our planet. They’ve been treated shabbily by some adults, haven’t they. I’m glad you checked back in with your own history; that is always the first step in predicting the future. It’s amazing how many people don’t do it. Congratulations on your weddinganniversary too. You are looking at Jupiter in Virgo with your timing, which is perfect for becoming a professional in your chosen field. So mid 2027 to mid 2028 you will find everything starts to take off. You may end up working with children or young adults, or perhaps find a child or young adult comes into your personal life in a hugely fulfilling new way.

    1. Thank you. There’s no need to apologise and I am sure you have a brilliant future working with and for children and teenagers.

  57. Hi Jessica.Thanks again for your wonderful insights.Reading this Leo in 2026 article brought me a sense of calm and relaxation I have not felt in a long time for myself especially around financial matters, my Pisces husband and his job, my Aries son and his personal relationships and my Scorpio son with his job prospects. I am forever grateful to God for sending me to your website in the past few years.

  58. Hi Jessica l love reading your insights to what the future holds for us all. I have Leo 4 Asc Aquarius 4 Desc with Jupiter 25 Leo. I really hoping that 2026 will see my life turn around. I would like to take this opportunity to wish you a Happy Christmas and wonderful New Year.

    1. Merry Christmas. You are a Sun Aries woman with stelliums in Capricorn, Cancer and Gemini – in both your solar and natal chart the most important trends ahead include Uranus in Gemini (from April 2026 until the year 2033) in your Third House of media, internet, neighbours, cousins, siblings and short journeys. You have already had a taste of this, but it’s not really started. So, for example, you may have begun to spend more time in a neighbouring suburb or found yourself with new internet opportunities (like Substack, where you can make money by being social). Perhaps you’ve found yourself with a person who will drive you. There is more to come from Easter and the last thing you expected is the first thing that will happen by July. The neighbours; neighbouring places; siblings; your way with words, ideas and images is long overdue for a big shake-up and you will be set free by it. So, for example, if you had a computer focussed job that fenced you in, it may be that you end up with a highly successful new project where you can earn so much, that you end up walking away from the fence line. You do have opportunities with your apartment, house, garden, real-estate, renovations, family home, town, country – until June 2026. The real story, however, is your writing; your use of other media and mediums; your brother or sister; the people next door; travel within 1-2 hours of home. That’s a revolution waiting to happen and it will mean a complete break with the past.

  59. Hi Jessica,
    Thank you for this blog.
    With Leo in my 5 th house, I am hoping confidence in creativity comes back! I love to sew!
    Wishing you, Shane and your entire team a very Merry Christmas. Thanks for all of your hard work!. .

    1. Thank you, I will pass that on to Shayne. We are recording Rock Stars tomorrow. Have a great Christmas. You will make or save a lot of money from July 2026 with a major milestone by August that year. Perhaps you’ll sell your work on Etsy. This is quite a lot of cash stashed away – so it may also be an inheritance, for an example.

  60. Dear Jessica – thanks so much for this perspective. If you have time and access to my chart (I am a premium member, but the Mercury Rx is strong this transit), can you please share your insights as to what Jupiter in Leo may bring for me? This year has been challenging. Thank you, merry Christmas and happy New Year!

    1. Merry Christmas. As you know, you are a Sun Pisces with stelliums in Pisces and Aries. The story is also familiar; it’s about image, appearance, name, reputation, brand and identity. Your signature on a painting. Your weight loss, if you need it. Your ‘name’ out there professionally. Your identity as a wife or mother, if you are. Being well-known, or not. Your solar First is occupied by Saturn, Neptune and the North Node. Your natal First is occupied by Chiron. Now into 2026 is about the mirror and Google. It is about mandatory digital ID and also the use of your digital twin, next year or in 2027. The Tarot can really help with these issues, as you have questions to answer about your face, shape, style, branding and so on. Real name or fake name? Real you or version of you? It’s on that level.

  61. Hi Jessica,
    Thanks for this article and very much looking forward to Jupiter in Leo and a much-needed improvement in my love-life. I’m considering buying a home soon and would like to know the best timing for this please and also how any other upcoming transits will affect me in 2026. Thanks again and Merry Christmas!

    1. You are one of those Sun Aquarians who are at the end of the most unpredictable real estate cycle of your life, but it stops in April. Your confused financial situation ends in January and the current restrictions stop in February. So that’s your timing. You will have new opportunities for partnership in July, August and ongoing until July 2027.

  62. Oh, what a lovely joyful post! Thank you – this is much needed for the world. I’m going off now to polish my Leo stellium and get giddy about my Jupiter in Leo. (I get double bubble, right? 🙂 )

  63. Hi Jessica. I just started dating a Leo who is 9 years younger than me (34) with a 7 yr old boy.
    I dont have any children and never wanted my own. I have Leo descendant and most of my past partners have been a Leo. Curious to hear your insight!

    1. The Descendant or DC is your other half. It can be purely work (Lennon and McCartney) or personal (your love life to date). The Leo DC will always bring you princes and kings, and their heirs, spares or pretenders. So here is somebody who indeed has an heir and I expect he comes with a portable crown and sceptre. You are a Libran with a Libra stellium and need a partner to feel complete. If he is the one you could easily marry at any point from July 2026. Jupiter in Libra will probably set the seal on the deal with him or another, and that’s coming up in the second half of the 2020’s.

  64. Thanks for your posts, Jessica! I’m wondering if you have any advice for what I can do between now and June/July to prepare for the opportunities Jupiter will bring. I’m a Leo sun.

    1. You are a Sun Leo with Cancer, Libra, Virgo stelliums. What shows up in both your solar and natal? The Seventh House of partnership. In your solar you have Pluto there, so empowerment through being one half of a power pair. (Of any kind – personal, work or platonic). In your natal, you have plenty of transits to support your Libran side which needs to be in a duet. You can have a tennis partner, a business other half, a husband, a girlfriend and so on – on this transit – and find that your willpower and self-control makes you stronger and so much more influential.

  65. This sounds wonderful Jessica, lots to look forward too. As a gay man growing up in a different era it is so important that every child gets the chance to feel loved and supported no matter where or what they come from as cycles cannot be broken if we continue to damage our kids and don’t keep them safe and protected. I have faith that these next generations will grow up to be incredible humans as long as we let them. I hope this period is a wonderful time for you also.

    1. Thank you. Yes, I agree with you that children’s right to be same sex attracted must be protected. Anything else is quite wrong. The puberty blocker crisis should be shown the door when Jupiter (solutions) goes into Leo (boys and girls, parents) so not long to wait, now. Rosie Duffield in Britain is leading a cross-party group to make sure puberty blockers become swift history.

  66. This has been a stressful year since Jun 2025. I have been diagnosed with thrombocytopenia. The whole medical fraternity has not been able to identify the root cause. They want to put me on steroids which I firmly refused. I instead went for homeopathy medicine.

    1. I am sorry you are living with the bruising and bleeding that comes with this. It may be your diet. It may be an infection. You have gone for homeopathy which has variable results (although the royal family have used it for generations). If you are stuck, you may want to use the Tarot and the oracles on here to start the search. At Christmas you will receive the Modern Lenormand Oracle on here which will give you another point of view. Get into a relationship with your sixth sense and start looking at your health intuitively. The cards can help you look at it from the outside. You have factors at 14, 15 Virgo in the Sixth House of health and we are currently going through a chain of Pisces transits at 14, 15 (transiting oppositions). This began some time ago. Saturn was in opposition. Neptune was in opposition. That is now behind you with only the North Node at 14, 15 Virgo to go. So you’re nearly done. The root cause of illness which stops you working, doing the housework, studying – is usually a subconscious need to avoid it all, or at least do less of it. If you won’t consciously resign, hire a cleaner (or get someone else to do it at home) and so on, you can end up with a medical issue which does it for you. That’s Pisces-Virgo. The subconscious mind and the body. So have a look at that. Sometimes women in bad marriages end up with illness or chronic medical conditions which let them off sex. That can happen too! It’s personal. So start your very, very personal search.

  67. Hi Jessica, thank you for the blog post as always very insightful and welcoming.

    In my personal birth chart i do have Jupiter in 10 degrees Leo 04′ 18″. What would this mean for mean for me please if i could request for a reading from you?

    My husband and i are now starting to try for a baby and we are really wishing that we could successfully get pregnant and have a baby by next year – i know this is wishful thinking but i would like to be positive and think that the odds are in my favour. I would really like to have this prediction from you as all your predictions about my requests have always come out true.

    I am also 1 year old in my current job in the company (thank you for the successful prediction for this job last year while i was applying and interviewing on this role) and i would like to know if my career will finally be successful for me and long-term and if there will be more opportunities out there for me for growth?

    If you do see anything else on my chart that i do need to know or nice to know, i would really love to hear from you.

    Thank you Jessica, i am looking forward to your prediction. Best Regards, Gems.

    1. Thank you, Gems. You are having your Jupiter Return so in the best possible situation in 12 years to become pregnant. The odds are in your favour, correct. Jupiter is about growth, expansion, solutions and opportunities. In astronomy he is a gas giant. In astrology he is just a giant and in Leo in your natal Fifth, that is a giant new chapter with children. If you don’t have a baby you may adopt, for example. Career-wise, you are a Gemini with a Gemini stellium so A.I. will change your life. It starts in April. Confusion with your career stops in January; restrictions with your career, will end in February. Then, from Easter, there will be a global revolution, online, which directly affects you. Until 2033 your way with words, ideas and images will undergo a revolution as you play your own part in this radical wave of digital change.

  68. Hi Jessica – I know you are super busy but if you find time to look at my chart (x7 LEO) – I would appreciate it. Best Wishes for a Happy Christmas … 🙂

    1. Merry Christmas. I’m not particularly busy, just sitting down with a cup of tea to look at the comments today. You are a Virgo woman with a huge Leo stellium in your Fifth. Starting in July, with a major event by August, you are being invited to find the orb, sceptre and throne and settle into your true role as leader and ruler – with the young. This may be children, teenagers or Generation Z – but your time is here. This extends to July 2027 when there is a final chapter signed off. It’s up to you how you do this. You may date a man with a child from a previous relationship and he may propose so you become a stepmother. You could foster. You were born in 1961 so pregnancy is out of the question, but existing younger people in your life could easily become the beating heart of something really big; this is the cycle when any sons, daughters, nieces, nephews, godchildren can be far more fulfilling for you. This cycle is also about courtship and the bedroom. If you are happy to be Elizabeth I, somebody else will be Drake or Raleigh.

  69. Hi Jessica,
    I would like you to look at my chart and see if further study, research DPsych in order to be recognised professionally.Currently I feel I do not have enough professional weight to champion hard for the children.

    1. Factors at 0, 6, 24 Sagittarius in your Ninth will be opposed by Uranus in transit, starting in April 2026 and running for years into the future, so you may want to factor that into any choice to study further. Transiting Uranus in opposition is challenging and usually happens without warning. This may be bigger than you; university funding, the world of academia (particularly with international students and foreign academics) is likely to see push back, worldwide, for many years. A.I. is just one example of what is there to confront the old system. So it’s up to you, really, but you may want to give yourself a Tarot and oracle reading, to see what’s going on – with that timing.

  70. Hello, Jessica. I am so happy this coming season as the youth and kids’ wellbeing is a topic close to my heart. I wonder what can happen in my life when I have Salacia at 22 Leo in 5th house in my chart

    1. Salacia is Neptune’s wife and a symbol of two other worlds, or alternative realities, co-existing. Rather like the ocean and the sea shore. They run counter to the town and the city – they are their own little universes. In Leo, in your Fifth, this is about courtship, the bedroom, babies, infants, children, teenagers and young adults. You don’t really do ‘real’ there. The escapism is at its biggest and best when Jupiter goes to 22 Leo, so the window is July 2026 to July 2027 with what can only be described as a voyage for you. You are a Sun Pisces and are also up for a complete change with your household, family, home life – with a great deal more freedom. That starts from April 2026 and runs until 2033.

  71. Hi Jessica
    I have had many years of financial challenge and loss and am very excited for this new cycle
    How will it affect me and what can I do to maximize this to get financial stability back – job, career change or other, ??

    1. Years of being broke or periodically skint, is usually shown in a chart with Taurus and/or Scorpio factors which are challenging. So how does your chart look? Sure enough you have a Scorpio stellium in the Eighth House of joint finance and real-estate. Every time you embark on new money or property decisions with a partner, you hit the same situation. It’s the same with family. You have Neptune at 6 Scorpio and Ceres at 6 Scorpio. So you are prone to confusing other people, but also being confused – over the bank account, possessions, house, apartment and so on. No boundaries. Just knowing that can help you (before you find yourself in particular arrangements again, get it in writing and have measures in place to stop boundary creep or muddle). Much of what happened to you since 2018 was not your fault. The whole world has had Uranus (instability) in Taurus (currency, trade) and you have been through one opposition after another. From April 2026 you get a break from that. Yet, before too long, we go into Saturn in Taurus, so it’s really important that you read widely about Neptune, Ceres, the Eighth House and understand your patterns. The Tarot can also show you. The randomness is there to be contained and controlled (Neptune). You also need to keep the stakes as low as possible with partners, lovers, family members so that when you periodically have to make compromises and do deals (Ceres) you are not doing that with a huge amount of money or an all-or-nothing set of stakes concerning your home. You also need to be aware of banks and credit cards; Neptune in Scorpio people are so easily muddled by interest rates, repayment dates, terms and conditions and of course banks take advantage of this entire generation to profit from the fuzzy thinking!

  72. Hi Jessica,

    Grateful as always for your insights in advance. As a Leo Sun with a Leo Stellium I’m quite excited about next year. I’m hoping I’ll finally find someone to build a relationship and family with. I’m also hoping next year is the year I can finally kick off my entrepreneurship journey that be a pivot from my corporate career. Could a pivot to building an online presence to quick that off be the cards for me?

    1. Thank you. You are a Sun Leo with Leo and Virgo stelliums. A powerful partnership is in your future with the first opportunity being January, February 2026, followed by another window in July, August that year. Even if you do not end up as one half of a power couple after that, you may try again before the middle of 2027. This shows in your solar and natal chart. The other person may well have a child from a previous relationship or a new baby may be possible; Jupiter in your Fifth can do that. Your timing is best for work when Jupiter goes into Virgo from mid 2027 to mid 2027 when your natural efficiency, dutiful attention to detail, work ethic and ability to serve will result in huge breakthroughs. Transiting Jupiter will form a chain of conjunctions with your natal Sixth House/Virgo factors and expand your options.

  73. Hi Jessica
    This is exciting. I have three placements in Leo, can you please tell me what my main story for next year is?
    This year has been good and not so good, with my mum passing in July. Next year we need to shift my dear dad closer to us kids and get him sorted. He also has surgery on his leg coming up, so I’m hoping he will be okay.
    My daughter lives on the east coast of Australia and is a sun cancer (28.06.2001) and seems happy most of the time, but she is an emotional cancer haha. I do worry about her at times, but she is strong.
    I wonder if I will be single forever (4 years so far), hopefully not. Would love to settle down someday for life, but only with the right person. I have been offered some no strings fun from someone I know, which was tempting because who doesn’t want some fun every now and then right to fill in some time, until I realised he was married – not too sure on the status of that marriage though. Sometimes I wonder what it would be like if my moral compass wasn’t so high. If only my friend wasn’t married right haha.
    Anyway, Merry Xmas, Jessica, and hope you get to have a lovely, relaxing break. Thank you.

    1. Merry Christmas. Next year will help you to look forward, rather than backward. I am sorry for your loss. I am sure your father will be pleased to see 2026 arrive too, after surgery and the loss of your mother. The next 12 months will bring the opportunity for different kinds of partnerships, as you are a Sun Libra with a Libra Stellium. You may form pairs or duets for different reasons – tennis partners, romantic partners and so on. You will not be single forever, though heavily Libran people always worry they will be! You were offered an affair by an adulterer and turned it down. Nobody needs that in her life. From July 2026 until July 2027 you will find a far better option on the table as transiting Jupiter in Leo will be sextile your Libra factors in the Seventh House of pairs and couples. Even if that is not your longest lasting choice, when Jupiter goes into Libra in a few years from now I would be amazed if you were not moving in with someone, tying the knot, or agreeing to commitment – but in two homes.

  74. Hi Jessica, thanks for interesting articles all year round. And I wish you a Merry Christmas. I have Midheaven in Leo at 15 degrees, will I see some lucky breaks in my career?

    1. Merry Christmas. Your Midheaven or MC is not your career; it is your highest calling, or peak achievement, which is not the same. However, if your birth time is correct, you were born to be monarch to a younger court and that leading role will expand and benefit you enormously when Jupiter goes to 15 Leo (transiting Jupiter in conjunction with natal MC) and at a 12- year high, too. What happened 12 years ago? That should give you a few clues. A new baby or child in your world would not be unusual.

  75. Hi Jessica
    My placidus Asc is 23 Leo with Uranus near conjunct at 27 (1962) – what will transiting Jupiter Mars conjunction mean for me? ( Jupiter natal is 12 Pisces on exact cusp of 8th house) – where there will be a solar eclipse on March 3rd 2026) – seems 2026 will be a significant year ? Kind regards. Tony

    1. Thanks Tony. I don’t use Placidus. Looking at 2026 through the lens of natural and modern astrology, you are a Cancer man with Pisces and Aquarius stelliums in your Twelfth House of inner life and Eleventh House of friends and groups. In 2026, you farewell years of confused situations via religion, witchcraft, dreams, therapy, counselling, hypnosis, treatment for anxiety or depression, spirituality, meditation and your invisible inner world. You have been living through an odd time, especially when alone, where everything and everybody was all over the place, all the time – but it stops next year. In fact, April looks like a complete break with the past. Friendships, communities, social media, networks, clubs and teams of all kinds are also extremely important. There will be a change in the balance of power in January and February and you will need to strike a very different deal with a friend, or with the group as a whole. The control will be shared differently after that. Again, in April, there is a break with the past. You will be able to pursue your social life and be part of a group (or connected to it) with far more certainty and assurances than was the case in the past, after Easter. Eventually you will realise that people power is the only thing that can change your life, or change the world – and play a far more committed part in a shared enterprise or vision.

  76. Hi Jessica,

    Phew… this year I met a Capricorn man (following timely Astrology delivery for a new relationship) and he seemed very interested and then abruptly withdrew last month, saying he wasn’t ready for a relationship for many reasons. He cited concerns about me still having teenagers at home and then he is estranged from his adult son. I have given him that space and do not plan to push him, but don’t know if I should leave space at all for him to return if he changes his mind after no contact.

    Also in general, from what I can tell with my chart, next summer seems to be positive for me in terms of love and relationships, correct? Whether with this Capricorn man or not? Any thoughts? Thank you, as always!

    1. I am sorry it started for you, then stopped. He was telling you the truth; your teenagers and his son was all too much. He may change his mind after Easter 2026, but don’t sit around waiting for that. (His relationship with his son will be firmer after that, so he may feel differently about your teenagers at home too). In general, with or without him back in your life, you are a Scorpio woman with a Libra stellium who is headed for partnership or marriage. The instability and uncertainty of 2018-2025 can be forgotten after April 2026 when at last you will know who and what is coming next. You could easily begin a new relationship from July 2026 until July 2027, as Jupiter in Leo will sextile your Libra stellium.

  77. Hi Jessica

    I only have the South Node and Hygeia in Leo, what sort of impact would this have? thank you xx

    1. There’s no ‘only’ about the South Node in Leo as your past life involved you as Queen or King to a younger court. This may have been literal (rare) but very likely, you were the leader with children or teenagers around you. This comes back to you in July, August 2026 and lasts until July 2027. So a new baby may appear; a Generation Z person may do well at university (but rely on you) and so on. Transiting Jupiter in conjunction with the South Node is about karma and you deserve a big reward. It will appear if you take the opportunity.

  78. 18 years ago, I had just finished college top of my class and was believed to have big prospects as a professional. It did not materialize. Only in January 2025, I started my dream job (at a below average institution) and it took a long long time of uncertainty to get here. Now, I am finally read to make the jump and become a successful academic, and am trying hard with various project proposals. But while my career was in shambles, I found love and have had a wonderful marriage. Now, the career prospects of my spouse is unknown. I wonder another relocation is in the cards for us. What would the Jupiter in Leo bring to our family next year? Any insights you have would be greatly appreciated, Jessica!

    1. I’d like to be able to help but I’m afraid there’s no chart here and you’ve not shared your birth details or even your Sun sign. Thank you.

  79. Merry Christmas, Jessica x

    With a Leo stellium, I’m curious why the 2026 Summer of Love is personally significant for me. Does Jupiter in Leo suggest a completely new relationship, or the closure/resolution of a past one? I need something exciting next year my love life is very dull!

    1. You can go back 12 years and see clues about the kind of relationship on offer. So, 2004 (in 2026) and 2005 (in 2027). Every Jupiter cycle expands the last one. The kicker is the South Node also in Leo. So, again, go. back to the past for clues about the future. That’s 18 or 19 years ago, in 2026-2027. You never had total karmic closure with someone then, but it is coming and it is also one reason why a new relationship will be on offer.

  80. As i’m born on june 16th, 1956 at 5:00, i think my chart is very triggered with the next year and mainly the next Sat-Nept conjonction and thé période but i don’t know how ?
    Thank you for all your articles and your answers to the reader’s comments.

    1. Just knowing you are a Sun Gemini (I don’t see your chart here) tells me that you will achieve final closure with the extended family circle, the house, the apartment – and even your old home town – by July 2026. That is very important to your peace of mind and happiness right now, over Christmas. But balance will return.

    1. Thank you. Get the best financial or business advice you can afford in January, February as there will be a deal on the table by March. You could make or save a lot of money from July 2026, with a result by August 2026 and ongoing, change your life budget to your total advantage by July 2027.

  81. Hi Jessica – thanks again. I am a Sun Gemini with a stellium in Leo (moon, North Node, Vulcano, Apollo and Uranus). I would be keen to know where the opportunities are. My Pisces son has Jupiter at 5 Leo – I hope things turn around for him. Have a great Festive season and 2026. All the very best to you and yours x

    1. Merry Christmas. Your Pisces son is on his way with a new lifestyle, job or course in the second half of 2026 and/or first half of 2027. It may very well involve children or teenagers, or he will have another job or course entirely but find himself with the chance of a proper date or romance. Your Leo stellium takes off at around the same time so any issues you have for or with him will be fixed, mid 2026 to mid 2027, if you take the opportunity. As a bonus you will find you have total closure with your extended family by July 2026, thanks in part to your willingness to guide, steer and lead a younger generation.

  82. Hi Jessica.
    Merry Christmas.
    I am an Aquarian sun sign born 9 Feb 1975. I am hoping you are able to guide me in relation to my future relationship / partner
    Thank you

    1. You have Pluto at 1 Libra in the Seventh House of engagement, marriage and de facto partnership. Jupiter goes to 1 Leo, Uranus goes to 1 Gemini and I will be amazed if you are not with someone new in 2026. Just try to compromise over the control. You can be obsessive as well as passionate, which I am sure you know. To avoid the repeat of previous experiences where you wanted to take over but were pushed back, use the Tarot and Oracles when the time comes, to help you steer.

  83. Hello Jessica, hope you are well.

    Keen to find out how Jupiter in Leo will impact me. Also see that Uranus will oppose my natal Jupiter next year. I recently started my own business and am optimistic for that to take off next year. I have three grown-up sons, which likely speak to my Leo stellium. I’ve not been in a relationship for a long time, which I hope will change at some point. Please can I get your insights.

    Thank you very much for all that you do. Happy holidays!

    Very best, Marls

  84. Hello Jessica, hope you are well.

    Please can I get your insights on Jupiter in Leo – I have stelliums in Leo, Virgo and Libra. Also see that Uranus will oppose my natal Jupiter and Neptune. I recently started my own consultancy in business and communications advisory and am optimistic for that to take off next year. I have 3 grown-up sons, which speaks to my Leo stellium I guess. Also have not been in a relationship in a long time, which I hope changes at some point. Keen to get your insights.

    Thank you so much for all that you do. Happy holidays!

    Very bets
    Marls

    1. Marls you will be offered an opportunity for a new relationship between July 2026 and July 2027. We are going to see an awful lot of separations and divorces then so you’ll probably find yourself with someone who also has children from a failed relationship or marriage. Perhaps, a widower. You have adult sons, one of whom will do exceptionally well in the same time-frame and there may be a baby on the way, fostering or an adoption by July 2027. You want your business to take off, which it will, from mid 2027 to mid 2028 when your Virgo stellium comes into its own. You are meticulous, methodical, dependable, reliable and hyper-focussed when you need to be, and people will queue up for that from the middle of 2027. A big hit or prestigious hire is possible.

  85. Hi Jessica, this article brings great hope from all the current despair happening. It looks like I have just one factor in Leo. Can you tell me what Appollo in Leo in my 5th house might bring for me and how the full moon in Gemini might affect me as well. My partner and I have been struggling for quite some time now. We may be holding on to a relationship that is already on its way out. But only time will tell. He is an Aquarius Sun and can be very difficult to deal with as a sensitive Pisces Sun and almost more difficult as an Aries Moon. I am also so hopeful for Jupiter in Leo to bring my daughter a baby as her Sun sign is in Aries. Her and her husband have been trying for some time now. Thank you, Jessica!

    1. The solution for the partnership is with your other half and his best way of fixing it with you or accepting an amicable split is to take the opportunity of July, August 2026. This matches your own timing. You need closure with him karmically and this also happens at the end of July. You also want a grandchild. The odds of that are excellent. A baby would be great but they may also adopt or foster. You will find you can exhale in the second half of next year, as whatever has to happen, will have happened. And together or apart it will be for the best, according to the Jupiter cycles.

  86. Hi Jessica – I have a lot of Leo in my chart. I feel like things have been a lot for a long time. Would love to know what else is in store, beyond your advice re: Leo sun. Thanks for everything, Angela

    1. You’re a Leo with a Leo stellium, Angela so a lot will happen very quickly. Starting in April, you will find yourself with brand new friends, a brand new social life and a group around you, that you find liberating. None of these people are predictable and neither is the scheduling but you will be set free by this. By August you will find social media changes radically and you will be caught up with that too. Perhaps because of these people, or for different reasons, a new lover is on the agenda if you want that – showing up in July, August, September 2026 with the final outcome by July 2027, whatever you decide to do. You don’t say if you are married, single, straight, lesbian, a parent or anything else so I’m afraid I can’t be more specific.

  87. Hello Jessica!
    I am sun, mercury and part of fortune in Leo in 6th house. I have studied medical work for the past 3 years. Unfortunately, I feel someone is stopping me from achieving my goals as a CNA. Please, do you see light at the end of the tunnel for me in 2026? I really want to work as a nurse! Tarot card I drew was Page of Pentacles.
    Thanks so much Jessica. Giovanna

    1. Thanks Giovanna. You want to be a nurse. You can’t possibly have the Sun or Mercury in Leo in the Sixth House unless you are using a different house system to me. I can read your Tarot, though. What was your question? What was your deadline for the question? Your answer is a boy or girl; perhaps a teenager – with a sum of money.

  88. Hello Jessica – I have a stellium in Leo and I know you often say if you have one degree on either side it will affect you, but I have Leo at 2 degrees in Fortuna – will I be affected? I have been single for many many years so is there a possibility of my starting a relationship starting then?

    1. Yes, a one-degree orb, or one degree’s difference, counts in a modern astrology chart. It’s all down to sacred geometry, basically. You have Fortuna at 2 Leo. And factors going all the way to 23 Leo. You have a whopping history when it comes to courtship and the bedroom and a few old patterns. Will you start a relationship? Yes if you want to. There will be an opportunity from July 2026 until July 2027. What is more important than that, is the chance to fix whatever needs fixing. And this goes way back, emotionally, psychologically or spiritually. What we are seeing here is also the South Node in Leo; karmic closure. So although the chance of a new relationship is the exciting part, the really important bit is the therapeutic process of long overdue balancing. What happened 18-19 years ago is so obviously the theme in 2026, 2027.

  89. Hi Jessica thank you for your post. I have Jupiter in Leo in my natal chart so I’d be interested in hearing how this return will impact me next summer? I think during the last return 2014 -2015 I left my job and started an online course to improve my career path.

    1. Thank you. The Jupiter Return in astrology is double luck. You were born lucky as Queen to a younger court, the way swans are born lucky when they wake up to find themselves given royal protection and access to Princess Diana’s favourite, The Serpentine. From July 2026 to July 2027 you will have a far bigger and better role as leader, authority, mentor and influence upon – children, teenagers, Generation Z. This may be for personal reasons or professional reasons. So you may find yourself engaged to a man who makes you a stepmother, or you may be asked to teach a younger class, online. It’s on that level.

  90. Hello Jessica- happy holidays to you! My sun is in Leo 29 , with Mercury, Pluto, and south node in Leo as well. How might these placement play out in 2026? Thank you so much for all your work and amazing knowledge! I hope we all see a summer of love!

    1. Merry Christmas. You’re Queen to a younger court, rather like Queen Victoria. You don’t say if you have children or not, but students, teenagers and Generation Z, as well as possible new babies, are where the improvements and benefits are for you in 2026, 2027. You may be made an aunt or godmother, for example, or find you are asked to educate or entertain adolescents or people in their very early twenties. Leo also rules courtship and the bedroom so of course you will be given the best opportunity in 12 years to achieve the kind of private life you want. There is karma here. You are owed from the past, as it was some 18-19 years prior and you will see it play out to your advantage, sexually, romantically, emotionally by the middle of 2027.

  91. Hi Jessica,
    I am nearing a launch for a historical fiction fantasy series set in the ancient world, with professional editing of the first book in process and the second book underway, along with travel research soon. I’m wondering about timing for marketing and release. It depends mainly on completion of everything, but it looks like my natural timing to get my website up, begin marketing, etc., will be in late spring or summer, which is in sync with my sun Aries image reboot with the ingress of Saturn & Neptune. It also coincides with Jupiter going into Leo and a nice trine to Panacea in Sagittarius. But a publishing launch won’t likely occur until later in the year or maybe even early 2027. I’ve tried to study your site resources regarding cosmic timing, but with other flow and challenge aspects also coming up: Pluto to sextile Panacea then oppose Mars in Leo, while Uranus in Gemini conjuncts Apollo (it was the first spur to get an editor, and get things moving) then opposes Panacea, I’m not sure what timing is optimal given such varying aspects. Your expertise would be most helpful (I’ll also try to avoid Mercury retrograde as advised). Thank you!

    1. Congratulations on coming this far with your series; books are Hard Yakka as they say in Australia. It really depends on the medium for your series. Paperbacks, hardbacks, radio plays, podcasts, film scripts, television scripts, serialised Substacks? Gemini rules the internet and media – faster, shorter information flow. Sagittarius rules publishing in translation – longer, deeper, slower information flow. Focus on the 7, 8, 9 degree sextiles from Aries (branding, self-promotion) to Gemini (the web and the press). Use Jupiter at 7, 8, 9 Leo which will trine the Aries factors and sextile the Gemini factors. So that’s August 2026. You also find the Sun and Mercury at 7, 8, 9 Leo. Start thinking outside the book box and look at variations on the theme; anthologies and audiobooks, for example. Computer games. Luck’s in.

  92. Hi Jessica, thank you for this article and merry Christmas! I have Leo in Saturn and in my DSC, will it have much impact on me? I work in education and have 2 teenage children so I’m really happy to hear that this cycle is going to be good for children and that reforms in education are coming!

    1. Your Descendant at 8 Leo and Saturn at 10 Leo suggest a lifetime pattern of working with tests of patience (rather like life exams) not only with the children or teenagers in education, but also with your own offspring. Lots of learning experiences. What happens when Jupiter goes to 7, 8, 9, 10 will help you enormously with any unresolved issues. And when the South Node goes to 7, 8, 9, 10 Leo life as it was around 18-19 years before, will play its part in some closure for you; possibly involving the birth or infancy, childhood of your children now – or other young people. You can track this closer to the time on my website.

  93. Hi there. My son who is 8, has had a lot of health issues this year and considerable regression. I am hoping 2026 will be kinder to him and me and his dad. My son is a sun Capricorn and I am a sun Scorpio.

    1. Your son has Uranus in Gemini in the Sixth House of his solar chart. So let’s start with that. This is a long-term revolution in the way he eats, drinks, exercises, sleeps, works (or studies) and works with doctors, nurses and so on. By revolution I mean, a radical change – in fact a whole series of them. So take a deep breath and try to allow for that. It begins again in April and will be with him until 2033. Breaking with the past, the old way of doing things, is part of that. If there is any aspect of his wellbeing or daily life which restricts him, would keep him fenced in for years, or keeps him in a prolonged trap – it will change or go. Have a look at Uranus in astrology and the Sixth House. He is just a little boy so it must be very difficult for you as his mother, but you have three useful changes in 2026. As a Scorpio, the confusion stops near January 26th. The waiting game and ring-fenced situation, stops near February 14th. Any repetition (going round in circles) with him stops near July 26th. The situation with his Dad has been unpredictable; you never know what is coming next – but that also stops, when Uranus changes signs in April.

  94. Thank you for this article! Thank you for continuing to give all of us hope that the many abused Girls/women in the Epstien orbit will someday see their abuser(s) punished…..and publicly humiliated/exposed! This “sex/power rules the world” must end if humanity is to find the right leadership/paths forward. I’ve been your fan/follower for several years now and I seriously appreciate you sharing your gifts with us. I do so hope for better days…..and perhaps the USA earning back the goodwill of our global neighbors…and good world leadership. Right now, it’s just plain embarassing to be an American!
    Judy Randall

    1. Ah, thank you Judy. Much appreciated. The American Epstein/Maxwell tragedy is a symptom of a global crisis, ongoing, for children and teenagers. Particularly girls. So as many astrologers would agree, Jupiter and the South Node in Leo (which rules this) is historic and necessary. Like something rising to the surface; it can be seen and removed. Most people I know who are British or Australian appreciate Americans even more at this time. I am talking about the real, proper kind. We stay loyal and understand. This can and does get better. But wow, that Pluto in Capricorn cycle got everyone.

  95. I hope everything is well with you. My heart is broken this morning about Bondi. So sad… It’s been such a difficult period for me since 2020. It’s like my life has turned upside down and I honestly struggle just to come up for air. People’s actions on other people have such a terrible effect on people. I also just received terrible news that someone close to me has passed away. I’m honestly not going to celebrate Christmas. It saddens me. I honestly hope 2026 will be a good year because I really need a positive year. Please be safe! . I believe the bushfires will be horrible this year in Australia.

    I made some minor changes to improve grammar and punctuation. Let me know if you’d like me to do anything else .

    1. Thank you. Bondi Beach was dreadful but it will result in Australia leading the world on gun control. People do not kill people; guns do. Matilda will not have been killed in vain. Okay, so you sound as if you are living with depression, that illness that most of us are familiar with. You are not alone. Living with depression usually means that any event which is tough for us, can feel so much more worse. Looking at your chart for clues, you have Saturn and the North Node in Virgo in your Sixth House. Virgo rules the mind affecting the body – and the body affecting the mind. This is why walking every day for at least 30 minutes is scientifically proven to help and even end depression; the astrology backs the science. I strongly recommend; at home on a walking pad, at the gym on a treadmill, or outdoors, all year round. You have incarnated with major issues about God, religion, Buddha, the Hindu gods and so on. Last time round you were patient, nurse, doctor or invalid – religion was talked about a lot and now you are back here to see it all over again. Christmas saddens you and yet it is the festival of Christ and Christianity; that’s a clue. You do have a ton of issues about the soul, spirit, church, temple, and so on (Jews, God, Muslims) to work through based on your last incarnation. That takes time. It’s intensely personal and you need to be alone to do it. You also need to be well enough to do it, so if you’ve not already spoken to your doctor about your mood and low feelings, do it. Doctors may very well recommend walking instead of medication or in addition to it. The findings on walking and depression, as well as anxiety, are remarkable. Have a look at Google Scholar for the evidence. Happy New Year.

  96. Hi Jessica, thank you very much for these insights. I just found out that I am being promoted from January 1st – any advice for next year or whatch-outs? Looking forward to a summer of love!! Big thanks for your work

    1. Congratulations on your January 1st promotion. Promotion is usually Capricorn or Virgo; you have a stellium in Capricorn. You are also an Aries so this works in both your solar and natal charts. You learned so much from the politics of 2008-2024 and are now wise to the way power and control actually work, with staff, colleagues, employers, clients, competitors. You know it backwards. So this really helps you, ongoing. There will be reshuffles of rights, roles and responsibilities when you are promoted, but you have the willpower and self-control to handle these well. I am being told ‘pub’ clairaudiently so just be aware of workplace politics in the pub or bar, too. Anyway I’m not telling you anything you don’t know. You will have fantastic results and perhaps be promoted again or headhunted; take a new role which is sought-after – mid 2027 to mid 2028 – if you play your cards right in 2026.

  97. Hallo Jessica,

    Dankjewel voor dit mooie artikel.
    Wat kan ik verwachten als boogschutter voor het volgende jaar.
    Ik heb een zoon van 44, hij is verslaafd aan drugs, zal hij hier ooit vanaf komen?

    1. Thank you very much, but unfortunately the translation doesn’t work both ways, and the only word I recognised was ‘drugs’ Do you want to try again in English? Cheers.

      1. Hi Jessica,

        Thank you for this wonderful article.
        What can I espect as a sagitirrius in 2026?
        I have a son he is 44 and a virgo. He’s addicted to drugs. Will this ever go away?

        1. Thank you. I am sorry your son is addicted to drugs. He has major decisions to make about his health and mental health in January, February 2026 when the current situation with a dealer, an influential or controlling person and/or a doctor (if one is in the picture) will transform. The balance of power will change. You cannot do this for him, he has to choose for himself. He will either want to run his life and use self-control to do so, or he will give up and surrender to who/what he believes is in command of him. I realise it’s so very difficult for you. Light a candle and ask your extended family in spirit to help you with him and follow the signs. It is Christmas and the veil is thinner.

  98. Hi Jessica,
    I have Pluto and Jupiter 2nd house Leo, Cancer ascendant, Pisces Sun, Libra Moon, Gemini in the 12th house. Saturn in the 5th, Sagitarius. Been a crazy couple of years with loss of my husband, financial difficulties, accident, and the estrangement of my daughter and dear grandson. I am have launched a digital products store online and it has not paid off yet. Any ideas please?

    1. You use a different house system to me, so I need to spin your chart. You have Jupiter and Pluto in Leo in the Fifth House of children and grandchildren. Saturn in Sagittarius in the Ninth House. I am very sorry you have been going through such an awful time with your husband passing, money issues, the accident and the estrangement. The good news is, you will have your Jupiter Return from mid 2026 to mid 2027. So if you can sidestep the usual issues about control and power, disempowerment and self-control, willpower (and so on) you have the best possible chance in 12 years of being reunited with your daughter and grandson. As you are a Pisces Sun this chimes with your solar chart. Uranus in Gemini in your family zone; the last thing you expected is going to happen and it begins from April 2026. You will be set free and break with the past. Then we go to Jupiter in Cancer in your solar Fifth House of children and grandchildren; most promising cycle for repair work in 12 years. In both charts I use for you, you must do all you can to persist with contact and communication with your daughter and grandson. There may be other children, teenagers or Generation Z who you can also expand with, and through, in a terrific way. You will be offered a far better lifestyle, daily routine, set of wellbeing options and so on – from July 2026. This may involve volunteering, a part-time paid job, study, caring and so on. Take the opportunity presented in July, August 2026. It’s good for you with bells on.

  99. Hi Jessica, I have my North Node at 26 Sag and my Natal Moon at 28 Aquarius. The new moon on 19 December at 28 Sag. seems significant. Is it? Warm wishes, Emma x

    1. Yes, the New Moon at 28 Sagittarius will be sextile your Moon at 28 Aquarius, Emma. It’s too wide for the North Node, although you will feel it in terms of there being a new beginning for you with foreigners, foreign countries – and perhaps aspects of the worldwide web, academia or publishing. The main story here is your friends and groups, though. You really care about your allies, pals, acquaintances – and clubs, teams, networks. Your maternal instinct is channelled there and it was evident from childhood or adolescence. This comes alive on that New Moon. As you then go into Aquarius season in January, February this is quite important. You are discovering real people power through your social life and social media by then.

  100. Happy Holiday season to you, your family and your staff. It is SO fascinating to me just how accurate you are in the astrology and predictions. Looking back at my questions, via the comment section and your answers is truly amazing. I was going through a divorce from 2017 – 2020 and explained that he had a girlfriend. You told me that it wouldn’t last, and on July 10 of this year, their divorce was final. He, my former husband has reconnected with our children and grandchildren and that brings him to town frequently now. In the Capricorn Astrology Report 2025, it talked about Jupiter in Cancer, my moon is 14 Cancer… anyway, it described the possibility of a relationship and when I have pulled a card, it continues to come up with the Two of Cups. From the report: “but the romantics of the astrology world believe you now have a chance to turn your life into Gone With The Wind meets Love Story. This is an epic time when you can either resolve issues with your ex partner, or be given the chance to form an important relationship with someone new, as you can see. It extends into the first half of 2026 so there is plenty of time. My question: According to my chart, I was wondering if it’s truly possible that he and I could reconcile?” I truly did NOT think he and her would get a divorce, but they did, and oh, what I learned about their relationships more than interesting… it was NOT what it appeared to be at all. Leo going into Cancer is in my 8th house and his 4th house. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    1. Merry Christmas. Thank you for confirming the prediction. I am pleased to hear your former husband has the children and grandchildren back in his life. Could you get back together? Yes. You must tell me if that comes to pass. But even if you don’t reconcile, there will be the chance for another relationship. The big factor with him or any other man will be the children and grandchildren. You don’t just have a family there, you have princes and princesses and that’s what the Lion (Leo) in the card is all about.

  101. Hello Jessica,
    Curious to understand what my Leo placements (Vesta, Moon, North Node, Venus) will mean for this Libra please. My younger Leo brother and his Gemini wife are currently separated, with a third party involved, and my little Sagittarius niece and nephew moved out with their mum last year. It has put a huge strain on our family and we wish they could find a way to reconcile, but are perhaps ultimately too different to come back together to what was a difficult marriage. I am single and longing for my own life to shift away from being so centred around my birth family and their various trials and tribulations, much as I love them. I keep feeling there was meant to be more to my life, even though I have blessed with a lot in ways I could not have planned for. Thank you for further insights.

    1. You are about to see through your Leo North Node, Aquarius South Node karma with your Sagittarian niece and nephew. That begins in July 2026 and will take you into 2027. You probably knew one or both in your last life (Leo rules children and young relatives) and the North Node shows karmic contracts. You will have to include them in your plans, but there may also be a new partner who has a child; that is another way for the nodal cycle to serve you. You are in the best possible position in 12 years to find a new relationship, or even more than one. That begins in July 2026 and takes you to mid 2027.

  102. Jessica thanks so much for your insight- always so appreciated. All the very best to you and yours for the holiday season xxx

  103. Hi Jessica – writing with turmoil in my life, and unable to calm the soul and focus on next steps. Thank you as always for responding to my fears about the future, with all your predictions always coming true 100 percent for me! Suffered a severe job loss in August and quickly got pulled into some very promising big new roles, with being the finalist on 2 roles, but they fell through. Career progression has been remarkable for me on the surface – but with a LOT of super hard work (60 hour work weeks), pain, deception and sheer bad luck, which is creating a lot of angst and loss of focus. How do you see 2026 evolving on the career front for me? I have been focused on health, routine, charity work and gratitude. Thank you so much as always for providing light when all seems dark.

    1. This sounds like a Virgo overload to me, so I will check your chart. Yes, sure enough, you have eight factors in Virgo in the Sixth House of workload and wellbeing. Virgo is the maiden; the unmarried daughter who had to earn her keep, so was made the cleaner, cook, nurse and nanny with no pay. Her sense of duty and service to the family was paramount. Virgo is Jeeves to Wooster; the downstairs section of Downton Abbey or Upstairs Downstairs. In the last war, Virgo was every soldier, sailor or airman on active service. What happens with eight factors there? You overdo it. Why do you do that? The Tarot can tell you. So can the oracles on my website. The Virgo archetype is also about mental and physical health. The only way the Virgo daughter could get time off, was to be ill, or depressed, or to suffer injury, or to have anxiety. We learn this as children. When we dislike school the only way to get out of it, is to have a cold. You are speaking the language of Virgo when you write about turmoil, fears, suffering, pain, angst. Essentially, you need to start with 24 hours a day. There are 8 to sleep and 8 to play so use them. Only 8 for work. You are the only person who is commanding yourself to do more than 8 hours a day for work. You can say your employer does, but you’re making it happen. So start there. You also have the classic Virgo stellium vulnerability to over-thinking; doing head miles, basically. Walking 30 minutes a day is scientifically proven to reduce anxiety. Are you doing that? To reprogram your lifestyle and workload, you need to feel relatively okay in yourself. Something as simple as 30 minutes outdoors, or inside on a treadmill (if it’s cold) could be the turning point. Have a look at Google Scholar and the myriad of studies done on daily walking. You may also benefit from C.B.T. which was almost invented for Virgo stellium people. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. This can and does get better anyway, when Jupiter goes into Virgo from mid 2027, but you may as well start now. C.B.T. for example would convert your use of those words into something that immediately makes you feel better. Your parasympathetic nervous system will thank you.

    1. The ascendant or Rising Sign is just your appearance (overall) and your resemblance to a parent or other family member, as well as height, weight and even your name. Leo Rising or Leo Ascendant will take after any relative with Leo chart placements. It is very common to have a royal name, so in your case, that’s rather similar to the Greek monarch. What happens when Jupiter is in a conjunction with your Ascendant? You gain a larger crown, orb, sceptre and throne – symbolically speaking. Your Aquarius Sun will be opposed by Jupiter, so that part of you which is all about the community, the circle of friends, the social media – is at odds with this expanding leadership of yours. Check your life 12 years ago, once you reach the second half of 2026 and first half of 2027. There will be a familiar story.

  104. Hi Jessica

    I have Leo in Ceres and Diana – they seem not so significant. What can it mean for me from mid-2026?

    Thank you
    Shaolee

    1. You have Diana and Ceres in Leo across 21-23 degrees which is important. Diana rejected motherhood for freedom, space and autonomy. Ceres was a mother, but gave up her daughter for half the time, to live with her son-in-law. Jupiter and then the South Node going across 21-23 degrees suggests any past issues about pregnancy (planned or unplanned), stepchildren, motherhood, parenting and so on – can be resolved. Shaolee, you don’t say anything about yourself so I’m afraid I can’t offer any more detail. But babies, children or young adults already in your life are your gateway to overdue improvement from mid 2026 to mid 2027. Good karma from 18-19 years ago settles in that time-frame. So, for example, you may date a man with a child from another relationship, or you may find your godson excels in his career and makes you proud. This compensates for previous difficult chapters regarding the world of offspring in your life – your own or other people’s.

  105. Thank you for your amazing posts, Jessica! I have learnt everything I know about astrology from you!

    Next year is my nodal return. SN Leo, NN Aquarius. I do not know whats in store for me.

    Im so happy with Saturn and Neptune moving out of pisces soon. life has been exceptionally tough the last 14 years, with the most notable difficulty sincerely 2020 (Chiron?)

    2025 saw me finally saying no to disrespect, leaving my marriage for good, filing for divorce, and not backing down from what is legally mine. the first mediation is for early January.

    jupiter in cancer (also my jupiter return), I guess has been good to me in some ways.

    hoping as saturn, neptune, chiron, and the nodes all changing signs, Im am very hopeful for the future to be good and kind to me.

    my very first niece/nephew is on his/her way around February 22 so I can cross that off your list. i am hopeful to find a new relationship with the right person this time around. fingers crossed!

    1. Thank you, that’s very kind. You divorced this year and are wondering about 2026. First of all, I was told ‘California’ as I thought about your question (clairaudiently). You are a Sun Virgo with stelliums in Virgo, Virgo, Capricorn, Libra and Aquarius. The most important stories of 2026 will show up in both your solar (public) chart and natal (private) chart. Your Sixth House shows Pluto in Aquarius in transit in your solar chart and in your natal chart, there will be transits to your Virgo factors in the Sixth House. January and February transform your lifestyle and workload. There will be a change in the balance of power at work, university/college or with a voluntary or unpaid role. Use your willpower to claim your fair share of power then. You are strongly Virgo and need a portable daily routine which allows you to serve others and do your duty, but also serve your own physical and mental health. This means a work-life balance of eight hours a day to sleep, work or play. You also have a Libra stellium in your Seventh House of marriage, divorce and partnership. In your solar chart you will find that January 26th is the end of confusion about boundaries and muddle about ever-fluctuating lines in the sand. On February 14th a long period of restriction and test of patience is over. In your natal chart, go slowly and carefully into any new relationship in 2026, 2027 as Saturn in Aries will be in opposition to your Libra factors. In fact, you may want to look at marriage or even de facto partnership as an institution. Is that legal framework actually right for you? You also have a Capricorn stellium in the Tenth House of success and status – and in your solar chart Uranus enters your Tenth House in April. Your Capricorn factors will be under transit. Obviously divorce is the first status change. But this is also about your career, academic career or any unpaid role. Again, there is this focus on what you do. A new job or course, or. a new role, is on offer. It will come out of the blue, set you free and give you independence. It could easily happen between Easter and July. You also have an Aquarius stellium in your Eleventh House of friends and groups. In your solar chart, Jupiter transits your Eleventh House until June 30th. More friends, better old friendships, the resolution of any issues with friends, great groups/clubs/teams/societies are all on offer. There will be a dramatic shift with some friends in January, February. I expect your divorce will mean finding out which friends of yours, his or (of you both) remain. Or not! Congratulations on your new niece or nephew.

  106. That was such a refreshing hopeful read, Jessica, especially the crumbling of pedophile & trafficking networks. Finally some justice for the innocent! On a personal note, I have IC and Vulcano in Leo. What what does this mean for me? Thank you!!

    1. Thank you. Children and teenagers have been sold short for years (particularly during those Leo eclipses and cover-ups) and 2026, 2027 will bring overdue change. Your IC or Immum Coeli depends on a strictly accurate birth time, but if you have it, your ancestor was Queen or King to a younger court; perhaps a teacher, a youth leader, or a notable figure in children’s entertainment or fundraising, for example. You have inherited that ability to rule and guide and it will take off for you, July 2026 to July 2027.

  107. Hi Jessica

    I would like to start off by saying how wonderous I am on the accuracy of your predictions ( British royal fanily for example; also mayself) and grateful for your guidance when I have reached out.

    There are very few astrologers who facilitate an open forum & respond to as mamy people as you do – I learn a lot from reading sometimes on other people queries.

    Jessica – 2 questions- I have tried to stay away from having an affair with a married man – we sparked but I desisted. The feelings won’t go away for either of us & i recall in one of your monthly posts on a false start with real sense only in 2026. He has recently been promoted and is very powerful in my industry – this further complicates things now.i know it’s bad karma but he and his wife do live like room mates – I have heard on this from others also. Botg their kids are away in college. Do you see this ending well if I jump in with my eyes open? I am tired of wishing for the right man to come – he feels right but circumstances I guess are wrong. He feels strongly too – it’s not a “fun” thing.

    I am very confused more so in light of the Pluto power couple or battle thing & things going badly will also impact my career perhaps – I am tryinh to build a consulting business in the same industry.

    Your guidance would be much appreciated! Thank you and truly grateful for all that you do – it helps many many of us

    1. Thank you, that’s very kind. I’m glad you read all the comments as they are always the second part of the story. Don’t have an affair, please, it will end in disaster. Pluto in Aquarius is in opposition to the Leo placements here and there is a good chance that this married man, his wife and/or children will have Leo factors. Pluto moves very slowly; you really don’t want that hanging around. Your willpower is your superpower here. If he divorces, great, you can become the power couple. Pairs, duets and double-acts (professional) are as much a part of this cycle as romance. You’ve been offered a couple of these since 2023; did you take them? If not, there is still time.

  108. Hi Jessica and Merry Christmas! I hope you have a wonderful year ahead. I am a Sun Leo with Mercury and Mars also in Leo. How do you think this will play out for me in 2026?

    Thank you!

    1. Merry Christmas. Thank you. An easy way to predict 2026, 2027 is to look back at life as it was 12 years prior and ask yourself what you planted, in terms of romantic relationships, babies, infants, schoolchildren, teenagers, youth. Those acorns have been growing the whole time and are ready to take off with impressive growth. The Jupiter transit is linked to expansion and so your natural role as queen to a younger court (and queen of your royal bedchamber) will also become bigger, if you take the three opportunities which are coming. It should be obvious to you in July, August 2026.

  109. Hi Jessica,

    marriage and perhaps a child/children this time around? 19 years ago, the first marriage, I knew it wouldn’t last and there won’t be any kids. I have Venus at 4 Aries, Fortuna at 5 Leo, Uranus at 5 Scorpio… my person is a Cancer, Venus / Mars / South Node in Leo and most likely rising in Leo too. Thank you so much, you’re so appreciated.

    1. Thank you. Jupiter going to 4, 5 Leo and then the South Node going to 4, 5 Leo suggests that from the second half of 2026, into 2027 and 2028 you are up for a total change in relationships, parenting and substitute parenting. Will it involve the other person? Hard to say, without a chart, but the Tarot and oracles on my website can guide you. In any case, Fortuna in Leo in the Fifth House leads the story. Going right back to your teenage years, you have a history of sending partners high and low. You put them on a pedestal and elevate them, promoting them, then blindly demote them so that they end up on the bottom of your wheel of fortune. Particularly in regard to parenthood, babies, stepchildren and so on – you unwittingly and unknowingly send others high and low in your life. Thus, there are often times when it feels like a television quiz show where the wheel is spun. It pulls in money, real-estate, rentals and valuables when it happens, because of the trine from Fortuna to Uranus, that symbol of all that is sudden and unpredictable. There is a huge amount of healing and problem-solving to be done, which will happen when Jupiter goes to 4, 5 Leo in 2026. I would expect July, August, September to be key months. You are owed from the past, as it was 18-19 years before, and that karmic balancing will take place when the South Node goes to 4, 5 Leo.

  110. Hello Jessica, thank you for all that you do. The past few years have been difficult. Do you have any insights for me for 2026? Also, my child (age 20) has developed mental health issues, and she is struggling. She is an Aries. I am hoping 2026 becomes easier.
    Merry Christmas and best wishes for 2026.

    1. Merry Christmas. Thank you. You were born on a New Moon at Leo, at exactly 20 degrees – the sign of parenthood, substitute parenthood, younger people (whom you lead, guide and mentor) – and also the sign which rules the bedroom and dating. Transits picking up 20 Leo, all your life, will either deliver great highs (when your little daughter was born) or huge challenges (she now has mental health issues). Okay, so her life will improve dramatically in three stages. The confusion, the lack of grounding, the uncertainty, the drifting and floating – stops near January 26th. We don’t know why. I have been an astrologer for a long time and seen all kinds of outcomes. People come off medication which has left them out of touch with reality. People give up alcohol or marijuana. They stop isolating with the internet and all its confusion. They give up religion or witchcraft which has left them stranded or lost. This is personal to you and your daughter but as January ends, the total lack of boundaries also ends – it has affected her soul, spirit and psychology. We then go to February 14th and thereabouts, when the heavy restrictions on her, end. The tightly ring-fenced situation which has surrounded her, within, will stop. Again – we don’t know why. Finally, the repetition and lack of meaningful change for her mental health, stops in July 2026. From that point forward, the third of the Pisces cycles ends and she can genuinely move forward, make a difference and see a difference. In your own chart, you have a Capricorn stellium but are a Sun Leo. The same story is being told twice, publicly and privately, about your success, status, ambition, goals and roles. The radical changes continue until April. These are revolutionary and give you freedom and independence. This has been the case since 2018 actually, and you have made or accepted several breaks with the past, in terms of how you used to work, with whom, for whom, and so on. You may have picked up a second or third career path, for example, or quit, or been rejected. In any case all the chopping and changing 2018-2025 has set you free. I am sure you know this. Yet, there will be more freedom to come by April 2026. Then, at last, you have stability, permanence, certainty and reassurance – professionally, academically or with your unpaid calling in life. Uranus is out of Taurus. In your natal chart, that striving, patient, ambitious Capricorn side is ready to show. You are set for hte most incredible success from mid 2027 to mid 2028 if you try and you could start planning that now.

  111. Hello Jessica, thank you for your article. Your predictions on the protection and freeing our children and youth from further exploitation and harm is a relief. Being a victim of child sexual assault, this brings peace and grace. Thank you for giving us hope.
    I have Leo at 18 North Node and at 4 degrees Vulcano. Can you please comment on what this means for me. Thank you.

    1. Thank you. I am glad this comes as a relief. We seldom see this in astrology. Jupiter the problem-solver in Leo, the sign ruling children, but also sex, together with the ‘settled karma’ transit of the South Node in Leo. It is meant to be. It will work out globally, and it will work out personally. Anyone who has Leo factors in the Fifth House will be shown sweeping solutions, which Jupiter always delivers on this 12-year cycle, but also karmic closure, as many people are owed by the universe. You are one of them. You were a child when you were assaulted. The North Node in Leo in opposition to the South Node in Aquarius in your chart, shows up at 18 degrees. When Jupiter goes to 18 Leo and the South Node goes to 18 Leo, a couple of major events are indicated. I have been an astrologer for a long time. Sometimes the person, or persons, guilty of the assault, are jailed. Sometimes they are incapacitated or even leave the planet. That can happen. Sometimes there is a new sexual relationship, which sets things straight. The past can be healed because of a new partner. Your situation will be your own. You incarnated to deal with this, in a soul contract you made in your life – between lives. Perhaps you want to look at that, maybe you don’t, but it seems very likely that one person in this lifetime, is a soul carried over from the last one. Vulcano in Leo in the Fifth House is a symbol of the cuckolded partner who must control emotion in order to get control back. And by doing so, finds real power. Vulcano was betrayed by Venus with Mars. You are capable of tremendous strength when it comes to parenthood, substitute parenthood (for example, being a godparent) and also intimate relationships. You’ve had good reason to develop that formidable clout and influence. Happily, Jupiter in Leo from mid 2026 to mid 2027 will help you gain from that. Jupiter is an ancient symbol of ‘best and greatest’ to quote the Romans. He is also a gas giant to NASA. This is going to be big.

  112. Hi Jessica,

    I have a few Leo placements, how do you think it will play out for me? Happy Holidays!

    Tommy

    1. Merry Christmas Tommy. You have a Leo stellium in the Fifth House of pregnancy, babies, infants, children, teenagers and young adults. This is also where we find your life in the bedroom – and dating. So this is very much the story of your life. Decisions taken going right back to your late teens, have made you – who you are. Sometimes those decisions have been extremely difficult for you. Saturn is in Leo. I have been an astrologer for around 40 years and in my experience, unplanned pregnancy, abortion, fertility, sexual preferences, the impact of other people’s actions on your sexuality, the personality and destiny of any sons or daughters – is always the Leo stellium path. What happens to you from July 2026 to July 2027 is a rare opportunity for problem solving, if there are issues which linger. What or who fixes the issues? That’s personal to you. You also have good karma owing from life as it was 18-19 years prior, in 2026 and 2027. What you did then, comes back to you, because you are owed by the universe. A spiritual debt will be settled. It may be a relationship that ended, for example, where you did the right thing. You have a great deal to look forward to by July 2027. I would not be surprised if a baby, child or teenager was part of your fulfilment on a grand scale.

  113. Thanks so much Jessica! I greatly appreciate the time and guidance you provide. You are spot on as always for everything you highlight for me (have been an ardent follower for almost 10 years now!). I will definitely do much of what you advice. My breast biopsy results just came back yesterday with negative for cancer so that a big YAYYY! Can you let me know what happens with my career in 2026? Without a job now for 6 months and trying not to worry. Thank you so much for all you do and Merry Christmas!

    1. Thank you and Merry Christmas. What fantastic news about your breast biopsy. You’ve not worked for six months, so this combination of health issues and job issues, sounds like Virgo to me (Virgo rules the Sixth House of wellbeing and workload). You do in fact have a huge Virgo stellium so you ‘live’ a lot of the time in your Sixth House of lifestyle, service, duty, doctors, surgeons, dentists, food, drink, drugs (medical or recreational), therapists, counsellors and so on. Every time you have a transit that triggers the Virgo in your life (and yourself) there is a major issue about your work-life balance. Classically, the heavily Virgo person has to spend a lifetime figuring out their obligation to their employer, staff, colleagues, clients, customers – and their obligation to their own good health, on every level. The strongly Virgo person, with a stellium there (which you have, dramatically so) has to understand that regular, honest self-examination about what is a duty (the housework, the 9 to 5 job and so on) is incredibly useful as any mixed feelings and inner conflicts about that can be settled, rather than waiting for illness or injury to take one out of it. We learn this as children at school. The best way to get out of class, is to develop a temperature. Virgo is about the housemaid and maidservant archetype. It is a very old image, going back centuries. The unmarried daughter of the house had to work for nothing, to earn her keep. She had to look after other people when they were unwell. The only way out, was for her to actually develop some kind of complaint, to cut her hours, or even give her months off. Perhaps even, six months off. The time has come for you to celebrate your negative result for cancer then sit down and look at your career. Your aims, goals and ambitions. Your real feelings about every job you ever had, paid or unpaid. In astrology, Pisces (the subconscious) is opposite Virgo. What is there in your subconscious that has led you to get yourself six months away, and with a serious health issue to address as well? There is a lot to unpack. Dreams can help. The Tarot and oracles on my website can help. You do have fantastic opportunities for new work, study, hybrid work and so on – until June 30th. In order to take them, now is the time to deeply examine your Virgo side, and what you need in order to serve. You have to serve, but how are you to do it, best?

  114. Hi Jessica
    I have worked very hard this past year to get a couple of creative digital businesses on the go. Is there light at the end of the tunnel for me in 2026 with regard to earnings from these, or should I concentrate on something else? It is important to me since it has been a financial struggle for many many years now.
    On my chart I have Mercury and Chiron in Aquarius 11th H. Mars, DSC, Bacchus, Salacia, Hygeia and Juno in Capricorn 10th H. Ops and Vulcano in Taurus 2nd H. Nothing in Virgo 6th H. Jupiter and Pluto in Leo in 5th H. Diana, Asc, Panacea, Prosperina and Uranus in Cancer 4th H. Moon and IC in Libra 7th H. Cupido, North Node and Saturn in Sagittarius 9th H. Venus and Fortuna in Aries 1st H. Psyche, South Node, Apollo and Minerva in Gemini 3rdH. Sun, Aesculapia and Ceres in Pisces 12th H. Vesta and Neptune in Scorpio 8th H. (Bday 29th Feb) Thank you and have a wonderful Christmas.

    1. Globally and also in your own country, erratic finances, an unstable economy and a frequently crazy sharemarket, have made it very difficult to be self-employed. Even Elon Musk has had extreme highs and lows. This stops in April 2026. We don’t know why yet, but it is the end of the predictably, unpredictable. This has a calming effect on your own business interests as you will finally see some assurances. This may be because you choose another way to make or save money, or because of a far smoother outcome with your cash flow and accounting – for whatever reason. With Ops and Vulcano in Taurus, the personal income sign, and both Vesta and Neptune in Scorpio (shared income, assets, debts, property) you have been right in the crossfire of some very difficult cycles since 2018; 2020 being the standout example. Life settles. And as a lifelong advantage, you will also gain from your house, land, garden, apartment every 12 years or so. This is one of those years and it continues to June 30th 2026.

  115. I could actually cry reading this. I’t can’t happen soon enough for children everywhere, anywhere❤️❤️

    1. Thank you. I am optimistic about Jupiter and the South Node in Leo, the sign which rules children and teenagers, and those who guide and lead them – their authority figures, seniors, parents and ‘high commanders’ if you like. There has been a long assault on childhood and adolescence for years, with all manner of horrors, from pornography, to trafficking, to puberty blockers. What happens after June 30th is karma. Those responsible will pay and go on paying in 2027, 2028. Meanwhile, anyone who has been blocked or stopped in their quest to protect and nurture the young, will find – like J.K.Rowling’s magic – every door opens.

  116. This is exciting! I followed astrology booking ardently for the cancer season in 2025, and I am now seeing two people (funny problem to have) who fit EXACTLY what I expressed in my booking, even trivial stuff like them being a good driver! I look forward to the Jupiter in Leo transit in my eighth house and hope one of them becomes my forever partner! Look forward to the 2026 booking dates!

    1. I’m very pleased you are dating two people, following your Astrology Delivery booking. And specifically, one is a good driver. Keep on using the A.D. system in 2026 and let me know how you get on. Merry Christmas.

  117. Dear Jessica.
    A very merry Christmas and a happy New Year to you and yours, – and all the best wishes for 2026!
    I have finally landed the job that I was looking for for months. I will start 1st of February and I am very excited! Worried too that full time will be a bit much – but I have a good feeling. I do so very sincerely and intensely hope that it will be the gateway to buying the house that I now rent. Of course, I use astrology delivery – we shall see.
    How do you see my Leo stellium unfold work-wise, health-wise, and with my living situation in 2026? Everything you wrote previously was so, so very true for me.
    Looking back 12 years from June/July 2026 and spotting what I planted back then is very easy; my son was born on 23rd of July 2014, a Leo like his mummy and with Jupiter @ 1 Leo. So he is, without a doubt, the acorn becoming a mighty oak now. Any thoughts on this/him, – and perhaps my 14-year-old Aries daughter as well? She is growing up so fast and has her huge Aries and Pisces stelliums clash on a daily basis. Tough one to balance temper-wise 🙂
    Everything is so exciting,- a bit too much on some days, but there is so much positivity permeating this cycle of massive change. I try to roll with it.

    1. Thank you. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Congratulations on your new job. I am pleased Astrology Delivery is working for you. Your Libra stellium in the Seventh House of partnerships (of all kinds) is the main story here. In your solar chart, transiting Pluto is in your Seventh House, transforming old partnerships and bringing in powerful new duets. Some will be work. At least one will be romantic. Your Libra stellium suggests you need another person to balance the scales with you, professionally, platonically or personally. And in fact you may fall easily into all kinds of pairs, appreciating the differences between you while finding what creates harmony. In January, February 2026 you will be offered a major decision about this person; he or she is your other half, and sometimes the other side, if things become unfair, but in general – this is a power couple in the making. The trines from Pluto and Uranus to your Libra stellium over many years suggest a really important double act.

  118. Hi Jessica
    Hope you had a lovely Christmas and all the best for 2026 your Leo Summer of Love!
    My question is about my Sun Aquarius son who was born on 26/1/1990 who is heavily Capricorn with Capricorn rising and the nodes in Aquarius and Leo. He has Jupiter in Cancer.
    He and his Aries wife are trying to conceive and have not had much success yet. They are considering IVF in 2026 after the settlement a property inheritance and sale (schedule for late Jan early Feb) after which they hope to buy a home of their own.
    My son has had a fairly difficult life and I am hoping that 2026 will be the turning point to a much easier and happier life with his lovely wife and hopefully a new baby.

    Many thanks
    Linda

    1. Thank you Linda. Your son and his wife will have their best possible birth, adoption and fostering cycle in 12 years, starting in July and August 2026 and running until the middle of 2027. Your chances of being a grandmother are excellent. There may be a surprise in April. A bit like an Easter Egg springing open when you least expect it.

  119. Dear Jessica,
    Happy New Year to you! Thank you for all the fascinating information you publish on your site.
    I am happily relocated in my hometown Melbourne and feeling mostly optimistic about life ahead. I’m a sun Scorpio.
    My question is about my 22 yr old son (sun Libra) who has autism and some chronic health issues (viral encephalitis). And a husband (sun Pisces) who has had a number of retrenchments and unemployed again. Life has felt very stuck for us this last few years. Will things get moving this coming year?
    Thanks so much
    LH

    1. Thank you. The issues with your son end in three stages; late January, late February and late July. I am sorry he is so unwell but the confusion stops shortly, and the restrictions lift by March. There is karma there you must complete with him, which is why nothing changes, but the karma ends in the last week of July. I am sorry your husband’s lost his job. He has the best career cycle in 12 years starting in July and by August he should have snapped up an amazing opportunity or solution. He can take a job before then of course but this would be a promotion, say, a big hit or superior offer.

  120. Hi Jessica and best wishes for 2026, I hope you had a lovely Christmas.
    I am a leo sun at 29 degrees, Capricorn rishing and sag moon. I went through a nasty divorce and have been single for over 4 years, can you see me meeting my life partner this year, I feel this is my year. Also, I have 5 adult children, I feel they are on a good trajectory but worry about my youngest who is a cancerian.
    Any feedback would be much appreciated. Kind regards x

    1. Thank you. You will eventually be one half of a power couple once you conquer issues about who is in control. You could easily meet or remeet this person in January, February 2026. If not, you would see opportunities in July, August 2026 which is the New Summer of Love. There would be more again towards the middle of 2027, when Jupiter will go over your Leo Sun. You are a supermother, queen to a younger court, and will have incredible fulfilment with your five adult children; the youngest will find solutions, mid 2026 to mid 2027. There could easily be grandchildren on the way.

  121. Hello Jessica, wishing you a joyful 2026 and boy could we do with that Summer of Love. Uranus in Taurus has been really evident in our family. My eldest daughter was diagnosed with a brain tumour in September which was removed earlier this month. She was so courageous as she had to be awake for part of it. On arriving back to her home she had a break in whilst there so we are moving her in a couple of weeks so she can heal properly. I feel that she will be ok and that this will set her life on a new trajectory but would be grateful for your insights. We await the biopsy results. I am hoping that when Uranus shifts, things will calm with this and also when Saturn shifts from Pisces as it’s been a tough time for her but her hard work also brought a 1st in animation with her degree. It has been quite the wild ride supporting youngsters, dating has been hugely erratic but creativity has boomed. My daughter Kate was born in Reigate UK on 16.3.1998 at 10.52pm. She is the kindest, funniest and most loyal bundle of human sunshine ever. Just want her healthy, happy and free of burden for the next years. Thank you Jessica.

    1. Thank you. Thank goodness your daughter is getting through her brain tumour surgery. She excelled academically but then hit this barrier. She’s a Pisces so is used to inhabiting two different realities; underwater stories and aquatic adventures, or talking animals and fish are typically Piscean – The Simpsons, too, was bankrolled by a Pisces and still is.

  122. Hi Jessica,
    Happy new year! Seems like it is going to be an exciting period. What does Jupiter in Leo have in store for me concretely?

    1. Jupiter in Leo in your natal Fifth House is on your Moon at 14 Leo, so you could easily find a new baby, child or teenager lands in your life in the most fulfilling way with early signs in July, August and delivery by July 2027 at the very latest. Godchildren are very common. So too is dating a man who has a boy or girl from another relationship.

  123. Hello Jessica and happy new year! I wonder if you are still answering questions on this topic… if so, I wonder if you can comment if you believe this upcoming time will bring a change to child support in Australia and I assume other parts of the world? There are far too many parents who are having to bring up children alone because the system makes it easy for the other parent to dodge all responsibilities. Dare I say, it’s because it affects women more than men that this hasn’t been addressed. I have the sole responsibility of three boys that I work very hard to feed, clothe, and house while their father is nowhere to be found. It hurts to hear my friends who are in their 40s saying their own fathers did the same to them – the system has been broken for a very long time. Also, my partner (Pisces, 1976) has had two tough years, losing his mum and dad. Are times looking better ahead for him?
    Thank you for your time, Jessica!

    1. Thank you. Happy New Year. Good point about child support. I should have thought Jupiter in Cancer (the expansion of motherhood and the solutions for mothers) followed by Jupiter in Leo (the benefits for children) would equate with an increase in child support payments in Australia. So that’s now through mid 2027. Single women take the burden, don’t they, as we see all around us. You have three boys to raise and there is no father there for them. What you are doing is incredible and even though you have a partner, you are still being stretched very tightly, to be both mother and father to them – especially financially. You are a Sun Virgo with a Leo stellium so were born to be queen to a younger court. Nobody said being queen was simple but you are also fulfilling your mission. It becomes very much easier for you with the children from June 30th onwards with some really good news by August. Financially you will be in a completely new cycle from mid-February when you have to rein yourself in with new restrictions but are also given a holiday from the real world with an outlet or alternative. This continues in 2027. Your Pisces partner has been put through the first stages of the Uranus in Gemini cycle and I am sorry for his loss, which in the case of at least one parent, was a total shock. The extended family circle will keep changing from April onwards and although it will be a revolutionary break with the past, he will eventually come to appreciate that he is free – independent – and was given freedom from something/someone that would only have tied him down long-term. It takes great insight to be able to appreciate that, but he will stand back from the family situation in years to come and understand that, had it gone on, it would have prevented him from spreading his wings so much in his life.

  124. Hi Jessica, I hope you’re having a wonderful and happy New Year! The past few years have been incredibly intense for me professionally. Today, I may have discovered that I needed to address a financial matter in the past that I wasn’t aware of. This could mean I’ll have to spend a lot of money fixing the issue, and I’m now looking for another advisor for help.

    When you mentioned that Jupiter in Leo is in my second house (as a Cancer) and that I have Leo stelliums, I wondered if there’s a chance this turnaround money year could be negative. Given Jupiter’s expansive nature, could that mean the amount I need to spend to fix an issue will be even bigger than I anticipated? I’ve been hoping for a more stable year, and now this surprise feels like it’s going to cause more stress.

    1. I am sorry you are going through this anxiety about your finances. Your solar chart (as a Sun in Cancer man) shows these cycles; right now in January and February, you have Pluto in Aquarius in your Eighth House of joint business, money, real-estate and valuables. Not only that, you also have Venus, the Sun, Mercury and Mars in the same spot. The first eight weeks of 2026 would always involve a chance in the balance of power; a shift in the controls; willpower gets you through it as does self-control. The solutions and opportunities come later when Jupiter goes into Leo and your solar Second House of personal income, so that’s June 30th. Jupiter remains until mid 2027 and is typically about big answers; growth, hope, expansion and overdue resolution and improvement. I would expect you to see this in July and August. Going to your birth chart, Pluto is at 12 Scorpio and Proserpina is at 18 Taurus in the natal Eighth House and Second House, respectively. Jupiter at 18 Cancer transiting from January 19th to 26th will help you a lot; transiting Jupiter trine natal Pluto expands your control and opens up your power with this matter. That’s not far off. I hope your advisor will help; whatever happens a typically ‘Jupiter’ person, organisation or situation will come along which is larger than life, or just plain big. That can only happen once every 12 years and it’s about to happen.

  125. Hello Jessica

    Thanks for the interesting article.

    Could you please comment on when 20 degrees Jupiter will hit the 5th house during this cycle?

    I’ve stubbornly over-stayed in relationships during the long Neptune cycle, knowing they were wrong for me but trying to make them work. Your post offers hope of perhaps finally being in the right relationship and I would appreciate your insight.

    Fiona

    1. Fiona, you are a Virgo with the South Node at 29 Libra in the Seventh House of partnership. So this is the same story told twice, publicly and privately. You’ve spent many years with one or more partners in situations which have never been real-world; in fact they have been an escape from reality. This has its pros and cons. You’ve had a holiday from the everyday with one or more people but you have also been without a rudder or anchor, often feeling all at sea. There have been no boundaries with people; this can make life feel very confusing at times, as everybody is everywhere, all the time, all over the place – within the partnership. This stops on January 26th. You have also been living with ring-fenced restrictions in 2025; these stop on February 14th. In your natal chart, you have past life karma with at least one partner in your life, maybe more than one. You owe, or are owed, and undoubtedly Neptune at 29 Pisces and Saturn at 29 Pisces (transiting Saturn and Neptune quincunx natal South Node) are still triggering this. Draw a Tarot card to see what the karma was from your last lifetime together. On the same dates I’ve given you above, the debts or credits on a soul level are well and truly over. Looking to the long-term future, a shift in the final week of July will help you move forward with existing or new people. You will feel released from a stuck or repetitive situation then. Your next big episode with a partner is financial or tied to real-estate. Go in slowly and carefully; external advice is very useful. From around 2029 for years into the future, a financial and sexual commitment will be another world for you; you will be drifting and floating there for a long time.

  126. Hi Jessica,
    As always, thank you for the articles/posts. I am hoping Jupiter in Leo gives my career an extra boost this year. 2025 was such a difficult year- coming back after maternity leave to a horrible boss- so stressful. The boss is gone now but there are still many unknowns about the job. Can you tell me if this will be a positive year for my career? I have so much Leo in my chart. Hoping for maybe even a promotion after the dust settles.
    Thanks!

    1. Thank you. I bet you are glad that boss has gone. You want a promotion or maybe a new job. You are a Sun Pisces with a Virgo stellium in the Sixth House of workload, workplace hierarchy, duty, service and mental and physical health. Your maternity leave was part of that because of course, you had such huge physical changes and lifestyle alterations too. The issue has been difficult transits to Virgo in your chart. These end in three stages; now, February 14th and the final week of July. You are on the up. You will have stunning professional or academic opportunities from mid 2027 to mid 2028 so set long-term goals. Luckiest work or study cycle in 12 years.

  127. Hello Jessica, thank you for another great post. I wanted to ask about my grown children, given this Leo cycle. One just quit their job and seems a bit adrift, and the other is struggling with university and also a bit lost, so it is all a bit sad as a parent. They are both Gen Z, and I am very aware of how they deal with life and obstacles compared to my generation (Gen X).
    How will this new placement of Jupiter affect me as a parent in relation to them? One is a cancer, the other taurus. Will it mean I have to step in and support them more financially this year, or will they be figuring their new paths on their own? Thank you.

    1. Jupiter in Leo is good for all parents, because it is so good for children and teenagers. It is the cycle when governments take strong action to protect the young, and on a personal level, individual parents find big answers (sometimes as the micro outcome of macro decisions made by politicians, grassroots organisations or big business). It may well be that phones and/or the internet is controlled in the second half of 2026 and first half of 2027, specifically with teenagers and young adults, which means they are less lost. You wonder if you should help them financially. I would be wary of doing that, only because it might go on until early 2028. You have not mentioned their father and he would also be an ongoing test of your patience, in terms of funding them. So be cautious about making promises or entering into binding agreements to pay for them. Some of what you are seeing now is the fallout from the very long, intense, cycle of 2008-2024 with the children, when power and control questions were so often the story. This does leave a lasting impact. However that is ancient history now. As you’ve not mentioned their father I assume you are divorced or separated. If this is the case then he is a bigger issue than you’ve mentioned, but the waiting game with him/for him ends on February 14th. The karma with him/for him stops on July 26th. If you are in fact married, he is still an issue, but again – a heavy test of your stoicism and patience stops in just a few days’ time.

  128. Hi Jessica,
    I just have to say I’m in a state of shock over the accuracy of my weekly and my monthly forecast and then I pulled a tarot card that aligned with all of it and I’m I don’t even have words. I’m just still processing it all.

    I’m excited to read that this Leo will be good for children. We have a child in our family who’s going to be 11 on March 23 this year and he has Struggled with autism, hoping that God for some miraculous cures for him. I pray the rosary for him every day.

    Now, regarding myself, the only thing I have in Leo is my MC. I thought I had part of fortune, but I don’t see it there. I actually don’t even know what that is but anyway, because I only have one thing and Leo does that mean this really isn’t gonna affect me that much?

    Thank you I appreciate your time and generosity of sharing your expertise with us.

    Much Love

    1. Thank you for passing that on. Astrology and the Tarot can be so accurate, I know. You will find big options for your autistic son, from July and August 2026, for about 12 months. I don’t use the Part of Fortune as I’ve never found it to work. Your Leo MC or Midheaven is your highest calling and it is your child but also the world of children and young people in general. So you have stepped up and will go on doing that, with dignity.

  129. Greetings, any advice or feedback on how the Jupiter in Leo, transit impacts me? I have a Leo Stellium (Sun, Mars, and Venus + Lilith) in my 11th house. Thank you!

    1. Please don’t use Lilith. And your Leo stellium is in your Fifth House, not your Eleventh House. If you have transiting Jupiter in conjunction with your natal Sun, Mars and Venus, though, you will proceed to pregnancy, step-parenting, fostering, adoption or ‘aunt’ status (maybe as an in-law or real aunt) from July, August 2026 – if you have a partner. If you are single you will be given the opportunity to be with a new partner, or reconciled with an old partner. The choice about parenting (yes, no or maybe) is everything.
