NOTEWORTHY TRANSITS IN 2026

As promised in our Aries Full Moon article on October 6, (https://www.holmastrology.com/post/full-moon-in-aries-5), we would like to touch on a few very significant transits that will affect us all moving into 2026 and carrying forward for some time after that. 

Noteworthy transits in 2026

The transits include Pluto and Uranus as well as Neptune and Saturn. 

Transiting Uranus and Pluto will be making a Trine well into 2028.  Neptune and Saturn form Sextiles to these transiting planets. Saturn will move out of orb in the spring of 2026, while Neptune continues its Sextile influence with both Uranus and Pluto well into 2028. The sextile to Pluto will remain in place for many years. 

Uranus stays in Gemini and Pluto stays in Aquarius while Neptune will remain in Aries over the period defined above.  Saturn is also in the sign of Aries but as mentioned moves out of orb in 2026. 

These transits will affect many individuals during this time frame especially those with planets or points in the early degrees.  Any planet or angle close to these degrees by Conjunction, Opposition and Square will have a noticeable effect while those with planets or angles in Trine or Sextile will also feel the effects and under most conditions in a positive manner. 

Both challenging and helpful aspects, if viewed from the right perspective, are influential and over time will be realized as positive in some manner. The more challenging aspects, however, will likely have a intense effect, at least during their intense periods when they are close to being direct. 

Pluto and Uranus together forming Trines with one another in general indicate easy flow, opportunities and favorable conditions especially related to change, new beginnings and in many cases getting rid of things that no longer suit our evolutionary path as we move forward on our journey of life.

Uranus often speaks of upheaval and unexpected changes in sudden and unusual ways. 

Pluto speaks of a turning point when issues are confronted and changes take hold which open the door for a new beginning. To begin anew, an ending of some sort must take place. This allows what needs to surface to have a chance to do so.  Both Uranus and Pluto are considered to be agents of enormous change, and we can expect some power struggles during the transition. In some cases, there will be resistance to change as Saturn and Neptune begin influencing as well. 

All of these planets are in force at different periods strengthening in energy here and there.  Saturn resists change while Neptune often makes things uncertain.  However, both planets are in sextile to Pluto and Uranus suggesting that an opportunity is at hand.  Sextiles imply opportunities but also require us to make things happen.  Things may move along quite nicely for those with positive aspects in the natal chart applying these positions, but it is suggested that you do the work that is necessary to reap the rewards available at this time.

There may be a part of you that is uncertain about the path ahead under these influence, and you may worry about making mistakes, but as time unravels, you will note that this is exactly what was needed. 

The natal chart must be comprehensively studied to get a clear overall picture of how these important transits will affect your life personally.  Remember although these outer planets often suggest that matters are predestined, it is always up to us how we want to deal with things which is absolute with our attitude. 

Uranus and Pluto are both in Air signs suggesting that the mind can operate well under these conditions, and you can figure things out.  Neptune and Saturn are in fire signs and will help push you forward as they are action oriented. These latter two are also very personal in nature because they are in the sign of Aries. 

These noteworthy transits in 2026 through to 2028 will affect each of us at one point or another. Uranus, Pluto, Neptune and Saturn will bring sudden change, transformation, push/pull, illusion, restrictions but if you do what is necessary you will reap the rewards.

NEPTUNE OPPOSITION NATAL MC

Neptune Opposition Natal MC

When Neptune, through transit, is in Opposition to your MC (Midheaven), it will also be Conjunct your IC (Imum Coeli).  The Conjunction to the IC is more significant than the Opposition to the MC.  When Neptune makes a Conjunction to your IC which has to do with your home, the family and your heritage, the IC also has some affiliations with end-of-life conditions.

Neptune’s behavior is linked to mysticism, the psychic realms and, when afflicted, it can speak of confusion and disorientation. 

When Neptune Conjuncts your IC, there is an emphasis on the home and family, in particular.  If a family member (the IC and MC also relate to your mother and father) particularly the most nurturing parent has been ill for some time and they are nearing the next phase of their soul’s evolution, then, depending on the rest of the chart, this aspect may be suggesting their passing. You would have to check the chart of the parent involved to see how their fourth house is delineated. 

There may be some confusion about this parent, and you may be experiencing vivid dreams, if you are so inclined, about the outcome of the situation.  If this speaks about the home, perhaps things at home and in particular the home front itself is reflective of life’s situations.  Have things become very challenging at home, and do you need to examine what needs to adjusted with the family or with the physical home itself? 

When Transiting Neptune is in Opposition to the MC, there is a need for clarity with life’s journey, particularly related to your occupation or your goals in life.  Is the situation around the home or with the family playing havoc with your career? 

Does one of these aspects of your life seem to need your attention more than the other and if so, what might you need to do to create a balance if that is what is needed?

This can be a challenging position but intuitively you may know what is needed to correct and move forward.  You might have to ask others when it comes to your career options or perhaps others are interfering with what is taking hold with your occupation due to the opposition aspect. 

This issue is quite workable, but it will likely take some time. You will be aware as Neptune approaches its Conjunction with your IC.  Neptune moves very slowly at about 1°/year, so this whole process can easily take up to three year or longer to be resolved, depending on the exact position of your IC. This is as a result of Neptune going into retrograde each year and backtracking over your IC. Neptune will cross this position three times.  Neptune begins to lose its influence when it is about 2° past being direct.

Transiting Neptune opposition natal MC will push for clarity likely with your occupation. The home and family will be involved as Neptune will also conjunct the IC. Find balance between the two.

NEPTUNE CONJUNCT NATAL SOUTH NODE

Neptune Conjunct Natal South Node

If you have transiting Neptune in Opposition to your Natal North Node, it will also be Conjunct your Natal South Node’s position.  The Conjunction is more powerful than the Opposition, therefore, we will focus on Neptune and the South Node. 

It should be noted, however, that the Oppositions, however, always have something to do with other people, and in this case, it’s quite possible that they are interfering with your path forward.

The South Node has energies similar to Saturn and having the South Node Conjunct Neptune suggests that there is a degree of uncertainty and things are unclear about the path forward.  The house placements will define the area of life involved. 

Neptune tends to cloud things when in challenging aspect.  Perhaps, you feel as though you are to blame for a recent issue in life, or alternatively, you may feel that someone else is the problem and they are making things difficult.  In most cases, it would be wise to reconsider and to take some responsibility although at the same time not to take total responsibility because likely the other individual is quite involved in what is going on too.

Currently (September 2025), Neptune and Saturn are in proximity to each other.  This in itself suggests a problem with distinguishing between what is real and what is not real.  You may have your eyes closed because what is taking hold is quite challenging and you may not want to see things as they are.  Perhaps you may feel that things will likely clear up over time and you may very well be right, but you cannot “hide your head in the sand” even if this is the case.  Be realistic and don’t worry where you don’t need to. Beware of exaggerating things in your head under these conditions. It is never a good idea to worry about possibilities.  See things as they truly are. It is best not to let your mind run wild.

Under these conditions, if you were to use these energies in an appropriate manner, you can intuitively know what is unfolding and ask for assistance from someone you trust to tell you the truth no matter what it may be.  Your intuition is strong now, but imagination can play a part. You must find out for sure what is imagined and what is real. 

As Saturn moves out of orb, there may still be some difficulties lingering until the South Node is no longer in orb as well.

Neptune conjunct natal South Node suggests uncertainty. When challenged, Neptune can cloud matters as well. Intuition will be strong under this aspect but ensure imagination is not influencing you.
