On January 3, 2026, at 5:04 a.m. EST, we will be experiencing a Full Moon in the sign of Cancer at 13°.  This will be a supermoon and is known as the “Wolf Moon”.   This Cancer Full Moon (as with all full moons) forms an Opposition to the Sun, and in this case, it also forms an Opposition aspect to Venus at 12° and Mars at 14° in Capricorn.    For this Full Moon to have an effect on you (a Full Moon is a culmination of what began when the New Moon was in the same sign {Cancer} some six months ago), you will have to have other planets or angles (ASC, DC, MC, or IC) making a Conjunction or Opposition to the full moon’s placement within a three-degree orb.   CANCER FULL MOON 2026  As mentioned, the Full Moon is a culmination cycle indicating the end of cycle which began when the New Moon was in Cancer (in this case).  When in the sign of Cancer, the family might be involved, the whole idea of nurturing is heightened and this could be towards self or another in need. Mothering and supporting are important. You want to get to the bottom of what is taking place regardless of whether it is considered good or bad.  You want to find the truth of the matter.    The work you have put in since the Cancer New Moon is reflective of the results you will reap.  Now is the time to harvest your efforts. Because this is a Cancer Full Moon, your intuitive side may be enhanced, and you just seem to know or even better “feel” what the situation calls for.  The house position in your astrological chart defines the area of life involved, but family and the home likely are a part of this scenario.   Because Venus, the planet of love and affection, and Mars, the planet of drive and ambition, are involved through transit, this could be speaking of an important relationship.  Don’t forget the Sun, which is always in Opposition to the Moon during the Full Moon cycle, is now Conjunct the placement of Venus and Mars.  This makes it quite personal and may also affect your path in life.  You feel that you know how to move forward, although if there are challenges within the framework of the natal chart at the same time, there can be hurdles.  You seek out control of the situation by making decisions for those involved with a sense of confidence because of the concern and genuine care and love you have for these involved.   There will be a drive to meet the needs of those involved and although family is likely involved, you will also have to take into consideration your own personal needs.  You matter as well, and you can’t do things just for others. You must think about your needs.    This is a powerful time where other people are involved due to the Sun/Moon Opposition.  They may influence your decision making by trying to force their opinions on you.  You must make the final decisions unless you agree wholeheartedly with what they are saying.   Cancer Full Moon 2026 is an emotional time, likely involving family and loved ones. You feel driven to nurture and help. Remember your own personal needs too.   #astrology #HolmAstrology #OntarioAstrologer #BarrieAstrologer #astrologyposts #astrologer #astrologersofinstagram #astroworld #astrocommunity #astroinsights #astroinfo #horoscope #zodiacsigns #psychic #OracleReadings #transits #aspects #Cancer #CancerFullMoon #fullmoon #emotions #nurturing #Family #mothering #relationships #newblogpost   Are you interested in learning Astrology?

The Transit of Pluto square to its Natal positioning usually occurs around the late 30’s but can extend as far as to the age of 60.  Much will depend on the Natal positioning of Pluto in the birth chart and the placement of Pluto during its transit.    As a side note, transiting Neptune makes a Square to Natal Neptune into the early 40’s and Transiting Uranus makes an Opposition to its Natal position around the age of 41-43.  Finally, Chiron makes its return to its birth position between the age 49 to 51. With the understanding that all of these placements are extremely significant, no wonder this time in life is referred to as the mid-life crisis.   Transiting Pluto Square Natal Pluto We have already discussed many of these placements in past articles, so we thought we would focus on the transit of Pluto squaring its Natal position.    Pluto’s action is usually quite intense, although it can make its way forward in a rather subtle manner in the early stages.  Over time, it certainly makes its presence known.  The energies are often attached to psychological matters and often forces us to look deep within at any of the so-called dark or hidden areas of our nature.  These areas are considered taboo, and we may not want to face them.  However, this is the time when we will confront our so-called demons, better still our inner fears.   This aspect is a time of deep self-analysis and transformation when we re-evaluate things, especially how we feel about our personal power (or lack thereof) and the control we think we have over life or the control that we think we lack in our life.  This is often a time of personal crisis, because we must be honest and face that which we may not want to!  How else will we conquer our fears and eliminate things that no longer serve us?    We must have a deep, honest, open look at what goes on within before we can make changes to those parts of us we allow to be on automatic pilot.  Letting go is of prime importance, as in many cases holding on is futile particularly to those things that stagnate us. Pluto sometimes demands action from us and if we do not act, it will force action onto us in a more dynamic or drastic manner.   It is easy to get caught up in what is taking hold during this astrological aspect, but these are the times when the valuable lessons are in place, and we can learn a great deal.  We come out stronger, more resilient, advanced in our understanding and ready to challenge life in a much more mature manner.  Do not fear transiting Pluto square natal Pluto.  Learn from this aspect. This too will pass, but you need to do the work.  You will come out on the other side a better version of yourself and be able to guide others through some of life’s more tumultuous times because of your personal experience.    #astrology #HolmAstrology #BarrieAstrologer #OntarioAstrologer #astrologyposts #astrologer #astrologersofinstagram #astroworld #astrocommunity #astroinsights #astroinfo #horoscope #zodiacsigns #psychic #OracleReadings #transits #aspects #PlutoSquarePluto #transformation #change #dynamicevents #innerwork #intensity #totalchange #newbeginnings #valuablelessons #newblogpost   Are you interested in learning Astrology?

Aspects to Sun in Capricorn 2025 We posted an article on December 17 for Sun in Capricorn.  Today, we will review some of the transiting outer planets making aspects to the position of the Capricorn Natal Sun.   Saturn and Neptune will be making a Square to those with their Capricorn Sun sign in the early degrees. Neptune moves beyond Pisces and stays in Aries beginning in late January (January 26, 2026) and Saturn moves into Aries on February 14, 2026.  Both planets enter Aries on a permanent basis in 2026 but have an influence on the Capricorn Sun prior to these dates as they maneuver their way forward.   Saturn, the planet of structure, and Neptune, the planet of obscurity and the intangible, can create havoc when they square your Sun.  There likely will be power struggles when it comes to your plans, the personal changes you might want to make and your path ahead.  Saturn likes the familiar and what feels comfortable. Saturn’s energies are unwilling to change even when change is necessary.    Neptune may not see things clearly, can be vague and may be unsure of which path to take.  Neptune, however, also leans towards the mystical and finding our way through avenues that are not considered concrete which, of course, is what Saturn wants.   You will have to weigh out the pros and cons. It will be necessary to organize ideas into viable structures and to find a happy medium. Although Square aspects are known to be quite difficult, they also push us to find resolution and can bring great rewards for hard work.  The square aspect forces us into action because the tension is too challenging to ignore so you must work your way forward to find resolution. This, as a result, makes square aspects valuable as we must act.   The astrological houses in your chart where these planets are located will indicate what areas of life are influenced.  For example, the fourth and seventh house might have something to do with family and the home, and challenges coming from the marriage partner concerning what action you feel you need to take.  If it is the tenth and first houses involved for example, changes or challenges might be in place at work which will affect you on a personal basis. You will need to adjust and find ways to alleviate the worries that you experience during this aspect’s influence.   The are many possibilities depending on the houses involved. You will also have to look at any other transits or progressions making contact at the same time in your astrology chart.  Look at the natal potential of your Sun, Neptune and Saturn as this will help you find a resolution to what is unfolding.    The aspects to Sun in Capricorn 2025 by Saturn and Neptune have opposite wants. Find a happy medium where a good foundation is laid for the more mystical side of life. Stay clear of ego and imagination to find a solution.   #astrology #astrologer #HolmAstrology #BarrieAstrologer #astrologypost #astroworld #astrocommunity #astroinsights #astroinfo #horoscope #aspects #transits #Capricorn #CapricornForecast #CapricornTransits #solidfoundation #mysticism #openmind #lifelessons #hardworking #SunInCapricorn #solarreturn #newblogpost   Are you interested in learning Astrology?

Information on energies related to Aspects to Pluto Transiting Pluto’s abilities to transform and regenerate are highlighted when it is traveling through the birth chart. There is nothing subtle about Pluto’s influence and you will be quite aware that something needs to be changed or altering when it makes contact. Pluto’s energies are abrupt and disruptive in their actions and the changes that Pluto is putting on the table need to be reworked and transformed so they fit life better. When Pluto is finished transiting through a house or linking up with a planetary placement, its energies will have significantly changed things and usually in a very permanent manner. Pluto is associated with actual death and is usually present in some way when someone passes over. It does not always mean literal death, but it does mean that a condition or life element is no longer suitable and change is needed. Therefore it does signify the death or end of a situation and then the beginning of something new. Pluto, as mentioned, is not subtle in its release and sometimes you have opportunities to make these changes, and other times they just happen with you having little or no control over the situation. If Pluto links up with Mars or Uranus, care is required and focus on not putting yourself into danger's way is important. If there is a square between these planets, there are challenging conditions due to the contact, and they come at you for a reason. Watch for arguments and aggressive behavior especially if Mars is concerned and particularly if the aspect is an opposition. The trine and sextile aspects are not as aggressive and usually suggest transformation at a high level and although somewhat challenging to accept, these transformations will benefit you in the long haul. Uranus is more unpredictable and this is the one you need to watch, if, for example, you are driving a motorized vehicle. Operate with more care than normal and never rush. Do not rush out to drive in fits of anger or after an argument. Take the time to settle yourself down. If you are confronted by an aggressive individual, do not put up a fight unless you have little choice. It is best to walk away whenever possible under this influence. These, of course, are extreme cases and normally, there have to be other aspects suggesting much of the same before these energies are released in a powerful way. There needs to be at least 3 aspects in a chart all saying the same thing before things necessarily happen and much depends on the other planets involved and the angles they are making. However, it can be a rather tumultuous experience and you will learn a lot from it. It seems to be human nature that we learn much more from adverse life conditions than the mild and mellow experiences. We may have to spend a little time meditating on how the energies can be released in a more gentle and positive manner. With this in mind, we will provide some details for each aspect and planet.

Venus' aspects relate to relationships, finance and shared experiences. Aspects to Venus We are working on this page and will be adding more Venus aspects in the future. Venus is the planet representing love and material rewards. It rules Taurus and Libra. Venus is associated with the Second House and the Seventh House. Venus is a beneficial and benevolent planet. Where Venus is found in our charts is where we will find grace of style, beauty and love. The transit of Venus is quite short lived and will only last a couple of days unless there is a retrograde influence. SPECIFIC ASPECTS Venus, a fast-moving inner planet, moves through the complete Zodiac in approximately one year. Transiting Venus moves so quickly through the Zodiac that its influence is not of great influence, only lasting a couple of days, except when it goes into retrograde. During retrograde (because it stays in retrograde for longer) Venus can have an influence on your social life, love and romance, and in some cases, your financial state for up to and including approximately one month. During the retrograde cycle, it is a time of reflection and review with these areas in your life, holding back any type of action until Venus goes direct again. Venus stays in retrograde from about 40 days. It is important to realize that Venus in retrograde will only impact a planet when it is within 3° of being direct. Because of Venus’ quick movement we do not write articles for Transiting Venus. We invite you to investigate the Transiting aspects of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto to Natal Venus however. These outer transiting planets can have a profound impact on Natal Venus, which lasts as much as three years. For your convenience, we have duplicated the outer transiting planets influence on Natal Mercury and have listed them below.

The First House The First House The cusp of the first house is known as the Ascendant, which defines how we represent ourselves to the outside world. It is the first impression one displays to the world upon meeting someone. The sign on this cusp will provide information as to how we will react to the world. We will specifically discuss the Ascendant which as mentioned at the beginning of the First House is the first house cusp. This will be discussed more in depth in "Angles", a page which is yet to come As there are twelve signs in the zodiac, each one having their own persona, the first house has a lot to do with our identity. This personality is not necessarily the individual we are on the inside, represented by our Sun sign, but often identifies us through physical appearance. For example, Taurus individuals are either a little shorter than most or average in height and have a strong body, while a Gemini is usually taller than average and slender in build. As all houses represent an area of life, the first house is defined as a house of action where things happen. When planets through transit or progression pass over the ascendant or cusp of the first house, things happen, changes occur and transformations take place on a personal level, as this house rules your personal self and everything we reveal to the world. The first house often has to do with our vitality and often describes our physical demeanour. The first house may also be reflective of our health, although the twelfth house deals with health as well, but often chronic conditions. When a planet moves from the twelfth house into the first house it is often a time of new beginnings, fresh starts and depending on the planet involved, we can feel regenerated and ready to begin anew. This is an angular house which strongly suggests an area where life is activated, and many times it is not hidden or repressed. Others will be aware that something has happened as we make changes which can even be appearance changes. Our personality undergoes transformations especially when Pluto moves across the ascendant. Many times our lives go through transformations and relationships are alter significantly. Astrology 101 The First House is naturally ruled by Aries . It is the house of SELF The Second House The Third House The Fourth House The Fifth House The Sixth House The Seventh House The Eighth House The Ninth House The Tenth House The Eleventh House The Twelfth House
