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.
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 For a new beginning to take hold, we must let go of something old and outdated.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.

We are going to take a quick look at a couple of aspects that will affect Sun in Gemini this year. See our post on Sun in Geminin posted May 15 at https://www.holmastrology.com/post/sun-in-gemini-5


Happy solar return Sun in Gemini! These aspects for those with their Sun in Gemini 2025 are suggesting change and the transition period for these changes can be much easier if you work with the energies and not fight them.
Aspects for Sun in Gemini 2025

Those Geminians with their Sun in the early degrees of Gemini will have several major aspects with the outer planets, some of which are already in place and others are to come. 

 

On July 7, 2025, Uranus, although temporarily, will move into Gemini.  It stays in Gemini until November 8, 2025, then it returns to Taurus.  Uranus then again goes into Gemini April 26, 2026, and from that day forward for about 7 years remains in Gemini before it moves into the next sign, Cancer.

 

Transiting Uranus seeks change and sometimes in a rather dynamic fashion.  It is known as the awakener and does just that.  It clearly shows what needs revamping, what needs a new direction and what is required, often because what was in place no longer suits our evolutionary quest and our essential direction in life.

 

Uranus is quite unpredictable, and its action can be sudden and unexpected.  Quite often we get little hints that change is needed prior to its eventual demanding push, and we can make these moves if we so desire on our own. However, these changes will happen as they are not a request, they are a necessity. Change is required and these changes take place with or without our conscious consent as they are necessary for our continued growth.

 

When in aspect to the Sun, and especially by conjunction (the most powerful aspect of all the five major aspects), our goals in life and life’s direction are part of the unfolding.  On a deeper level even our essences is subject to concentrated focus and evaluation and some change is often a requirement.  Much of what transpires will depend on the placement of transiting Uranus, the natal Sun and Natal Uranus by house placement and aspect configuration within natal chart.

 

Transiting Pluto is already making a Trine to those Geminians with their Sun in the early degrees of Gemini.  Transiting Pluto currently (May 2025) is in retrograde at 3° in Aquarius.  As mentioned, Uranus speaks of change of direction and now Pluto speaks of disruption to the flow of things because a full change of direction is required.  There are no half measures about the actions of Pluto.  Pluto can be dynamic although often begins in a rather subtle manner opening doors that are now needing to be open.  Although both Uranus and Pluto speak of the need for change, Pluto being in Trine suggests that the shift of direction is likely very absolute and very productive and favorable. 

 

If, for example, Pluto was either moving into the seventh house or already in the seventh house then the potential for a change in relationships of significance, usually the partner and is subject to moving in a different direction.  The relationship will undergo a transformation and regeneration if that is a requirement and then move forward in the direction that is most suitable for the individuals concerned. 

 

The likelihood of the Sun, in this example, being in the third or fourth house is quite possible so not only will it affect the life path and inner regeneration, it will also have something to do with the home and family and communication techniques.  If in the third for example, then communication is highlighted especially in everyday affairs.  If in the fourth house, the home front and family or perhaps one of the parents being part of the conditions unfolding is likely. 

 

There are other aspects in force for Sun in Gemini but this post will only touch on these influences.

Part II

 

As mentioned on Monday, May 12, 2025, this is an astrology article which speaks of the outer planetary movement taking place now and in the near future. 

 

As mentioned yesterday, Pluto has already made this change moving from Capricorn into Aquarius and in the next coming months Neptune will move from Pisces into Aries, Uranus will move from Taurus into Gemini and Saturn will move from Pisces to Aries.  Jupiter will also move from Gemini into Cancer while the inner planets (Mercury, Venus and Mars) continue in their movement from sign to sign on a much more rapid pace.

 

During this time frame (which is over a period of about one year), Pluto will be in Sextile to Neptune, and Saturn and Trine to Uranus. 

 

Neptune will Conjunct Saturn, and Trine Uranus, and Saturn will also Sextile Pluto. 

 

These are all favorable aspects coming into play and this should indicate a time when the world goes through some transformational energies which hopefully will be widely accepted, and change will begin to unfold in a positive manner. 

 

We focused on Pluto and Neptune in yesterday and today we continue with Uranus and Saturn.

 

The outer planets indicating a big change on the horizon are Pluto, Uranus, Neptune and Saturn. Utilize the energies and be open to the possibilities. Do what you can in your own little corner of the world as what unfolds may be quite pleasant and beneficial.
Outer Planets Are Indicating Big Change

With Uranus moving into Gemini, which is a much more comfortable placement for Uranus being invigorating and pushes for the seeking of enlightenment. As a result of this transition into Gemini a door will be opening for us.  Clearer understanding is likely, as well as an awareness beyond what would be sought when Uranus was in Taurus.  Uranus ruled by Aquarius brings forth awakening energies which will push those in tune with their higher self and inner self. This should stimulate many others to awaken to the possibility of a newfound freedom that works equally for each and every one of us.

 

Saturn moving from Pisces to Aries will have similar effects of Neptune moving through Pisces. Neptune and Saturn will also connect by aspect and join forces beginning in May, 2025.  This should bring to the forefront proof, beyond reasonable doubt, that the mystical side of life is alive and well. There will, however, be a real push to make things practical and more credible perhaps embracing the understanding that there is much more to our existence than the everyday life of work, sleep and eat.

 

Hopefully these energies, working together in harmony, bring forth what is needed during these turbulent times. We likely will be able to begin focusing our helping mankind reach its potential as well as to clear up the unrest that our planet is currently experiencing. 

 

Our combined expectations, our preconceived notion of what is possible, our belief structures and focuses and our efforts together create our reality.

 

The outer planets indicating a big change on the horizon are Pluto, Uranus, Neptune and Saturn. Utilize the energies and be open to the possibilities. Do what you can in your own little corner of the world as what unfolds may be quite pleasant and beneficial.
