SUN IN VIRGO 2026

SUN IN VIRGO 2026

The Sun moves into the sign of Virgo on August 22, 2026. 

If your Sun is between 1” and 9° 59” in the sign of Virgo, you are considered a double Virgo.  If your Sun is between 10° and 19° 59” Virgo, you are a Virgo and will have some Capricorn tendencies, and if your Sun is between 20° and 29° 59” Virgo, you are in the 3^rd decan (or decanate) and will also have some Taurus tendencies.  These are the three decans of Virgo (as with all signs) and the house placement of your Sun will also be influenced by the natural ruler of the house in which it resides. 

This is a perfect example of why some Virgoans identify strongly with Virgo tendencies (example Sun at 1° Virgo and in the 6^th house) and others do not (example Sun at 12° Virgo in the 4^th house).  The Ascendant and our Moon signs also have an impact on our personality. 

Regardless of where the Sun is placed by degree and house placement, the Sun, which is your inner personality and always represents us well, constantly holds prominence in the chart, especially the way a person is internally.  We identify with our Sun sign even though some might not agree with this statement.

Virgoan individuals seek perfection.  They like to have their house in order, so to speak and if by chance it is not in order, then you know there are some internal issues going on. 

Virgoans see the flaws in the world around them and within themselves as well.  They can be nitpicky because of this and look to correct these issues. 

The average Virgo is dependable, structured, organized, usually quite polite and they are efficient at what they do.

Virgo is a Mutable, Earth sign suggesting that these individuals strive to build something worthwhile in their lives.  They are practical and adaptable and, in most cases, do not like change.  Many are quite health conscious and look after themselves through proper diet, weight control and hygiene.  For most Virgoans, exercise or a somewhat vigorous lifestyle is what they seek.  Usually, they like to keep themselves busy and have relatively high standards from themselves.

Many Virgo individuals can bend with life’s circumstances.  They are pliable and often resilient and want to rectify any situation that needs adjusting.  Much goes on behind the scenes on internal level, and the mind is quite busy as Mercury is their ruling planet. Much will depend on how Mercury is aspected in the birth chart, however, and the sign and house that it resides in.

Currently the outer planets (Pluto, Uranus and Neptune) are in the early degrees in their respective signs.  Our next astrology post will touch on how these powerful planets might be influencing the Sun in Virgo individual during the upcoming year. 

Happy solar return to our reliable, diligent, curious, detailed, perfection seeking, “I Analyze” Virgo readers.

LEO NEW MOON SOLAR ECLIPSE 2026

LEO NEW MOON SOLAR ECLIPSE 2026

Today, August 12, 2026, we will be experiencing a Leo New Moon Solar Eclipse.  It crosses Greenland, Iceland and Spain and those of us in Canada or the USA will experience a partial view. 

It is closest to the South Node, rather than the North Node, out by about 9° in the same sign (Leo).  Those with planets or angles in the fixed signs (Aquarius, Taurus, Scorpio and Leo) within a 3° orb of influence, so 17 to 23 ° of these signs will be the most affected by this major celestial event. 

A Solar Eclipse closer to the South Node than the North Node often makes things quite challenging and pushes you to let go of something that is holding you back.  Without letting go and ending conditions, something new, which is what is being called for, may never materialize. 

Because this is in the sign of Leo at 20°, it has to do with leadership, individuality and/or any creative endeavors you might be involved in, especially anything that might put you in the limelight or draw attention to you.  It will be a time of new beginnings. For a new beginning to take hold, we must let go of something old and outdated. This creates an ending of sorts before we can begin anew.

The effects of this Solar Eclipse will have a lasting impact on those effected. The energies can last up to one year. Astrologers believe that the time the eclipse lasts in hours is equal to the years it will be affecting your life. Most certainly, however, the first six months are of most importance and have profound effects based on the planets being impacted and the houses involved in the chart.

It is time, as with all Leo individuals, to be your true self and if by chance you have been overly busy in the past, you might want to take some time off and enjoy life a little.  Take a holiday from your obligations, have some fun, and take a break.  If you don’t do this, you might feel very drained and worn out.  This eclipse can take a lot of energy out of you as you merge into what is unfolding in your life.

Most eclipses are not an easy adjustment and the Conjunction, which is the most powerful, would involve planets in Leo in the degrees indicated, creating a merging of energies depending on what the planets involved might be.  Conjunctions are very powerful, followed by the Opposition. With the opposition, this would involve planets in Aquarius and the Opposition suggests that others seem to be orchestrating what is unfolding--an end of conditions so something new can begin. 

The Squares from Taurus and Scorpio create tension which is challenging enough that it forces you to act to alleviate these conditions.  However, do not fear what is taking hold in life due to these powerful energies in place as they are the harbingers of endings creating what is needed for something new to be put in place in your life.

With the Leo New Moon Solar Eclipse letting go and forgiveness, if this is necessary, are prime action for now and serve as a viable solution to any challenges that might be in place during this period.

THE INFLUENCE OF THE SUN IN OUR NATAL CHART

It is said that you can tell quite a bit about an individual just by the Sun, Moon and Ascendant in the birth chart (natal astrology chart). 

The Sun reveals who we are on an internal level.  Much will depend on the aspect configurations connected to the sun and the house that it resides in.  However, we all carry much of our inner personality from the influence of the Sun.

The Sun also represents the father figure in our life while the Moon represents the mother. Once again, you must take into consideration the aspects and the house placements of both to get more details on the energies. 

The Sun is representative of our goals in life.  There is a huge difference between someone who has their Sun in Aries and someone who has their Sun in Pisces.  Both have completely different paths in life, although they do share the fact that growth is important. With Pisces growth would be through service and spiritual advancement. With Aries, growth comes either through exploration or experience. Aries advancement in pursuits are on a more aggressive manner, or through lessons learned due to failure due to wanting things to take place quickly.

The Sun along with the North Node points towards our destiny and the way we will move forward to reach our summit.  Will we move forward in an unusual, eccentric and humanitarian manner (Aquarius) or through secret, internal transformations that might be considered taboo (Scorpio)?

The house placement is extremely important as we get a mixture of character traits depending on which house our Sun resides in.  Will we pursue life through communication techniques and teachings (Gemini/3^rd house), or will we pursue life through material advancement and goals that push us to the very top of our objectives especially in our career (Capricorn/10^th house)?

The Sun can determine what our health is like.  Is it robust because of influences from Jupiter and is it well aspected by the Ascendant and Mars?

Does the Sun have trines to Pluto which offers the potential for powerful regenerative capabilities? 

Is the Sun poorly aspected especially by the outer planets, and does it have negative implications from the Ascendant, the sixth and/or twelfth houses?

We can learn to adapt if the latter example is the case, although knowing this will help us and make us pay closer attention to our health.

Jupiter on the Ascendant can speak of gaining weight and Mars can speak of a fight for survival especially if challenged and close to the Ascendant. 

The whole chart must be carefully studied to obtain a clear and concise health analysis. 

Mercury must also be applied when reviewing the chart potential by the influence of the Sun as Mercury rules our pattern of thinking and will help define the potential Sun character traits, especially through the way we communicate.

Aspects from the Sun to other planets and angles will help define who we are and the way we express our uniqueness. 

We must also consider the decants as they will also color the kind of person we are.  Each sign is divided into 3 decants. Each decant is 10°, and are contained within the same element (Air, Water, Fire and Earth). The first 9° 59” would be a double Sun sign emphasis.

The influence of the Sun in our natal chart reflects our core self, our ego, our purpose in life, and so much more. The Sun is important, but we are so much more than just our Sun sign.

As we can see, the Sun sign is extremely important when it comes to who we are, and in this article we are just touching on the relevance of this extremely important energy in our Natal makeup.
