Astrology by NARAMON

Scorpio season 2026 begins October 23 with Venus retrograde in Scorpio, Mercury retrograde in Scorpio, a Full Moon in Taurus, a New Moon in Scorpio, and the Sun squaring the lunar nodes. If you have felt the late-night thoughts, the old conversations circling back, and the pull to be honest with yourself, this is the season doing its work. In this Scorpio season astrology forecast, I walk you thro...

Three major astrological forces are converging in 2026 — and together they tell one story that has been building in the sky for 96 years. In this episode, Narayana Montufar walks through all three:  Regulus precessing from Leo into Virgo around 2011 (the most powerful of the four Royal Stars entering a feminine sign for the first time in 2,000 years), the Venus Star Point in Scorpio making its fin...

In 2026, every Mercury retrograde fell in a water sign — Pisces, Cancer, and now Scorpio. Together, these three retrogrades form a grand water trine, and Mercury retrograde in Scorpio (October 24 through November 13) is the chapter that closes it. In this episode, Narayana Montufar walks through all three retrogrades as a single unified story: what Pisces asked the mind to release, what Cancer ask...

If you were born between April 1996 and June 1998, or between October 1998 and February 1999 — your Saturn is in Aries, and right now you are in your Saturn return. The Saturn return is the most significant astrological event of your late twenties and early thirties. It happens when Saturn in the sky returns to the exact degree where it was when you were born — and it brings a life accounting peri...

Libra season 2026 arrives on September 22nd — and if it had to be described in two words, those words are powerful transformation. A Grand Air Trine opens the season with rare clarity. A Full Moon in Aries demands honest illumination. Venus retrograde begins its excavation on October 3rd. A Grand Cross involving five planetary bodies locks in simultaneously. And October 15th brings the luckiest da...

The tension between generations right now feels different. Not just the usual friction between parents and children — but something more fundamental, something almost irreconcilable. There is a reason for that. And it is written in the stars. Transiting Pluto in Aquarius is currently forming a precise T-square with two living generations: opposing Pluto in Leo (born 1939–1957) and squaring Pluto i...

On October 3rd, Venus stations retrograde at 8° Scorpio — and for 41 days, through November 13th, everything this planet rules turns inward for review. Love, money, desire, values, the way you attract and are attracted. All of it under Scorpio’s unsparing gaze. This retrograde moves through two signs — Scorpio first (the excavation) then Libra (the weighing) — touching two houses in every chart si...

On September 10th, Uranus stations retrograde at 5°41’ Gemini — and the great awakener turns inward for the first time since entering this sign. For five months, until February 8th, 2027, the planet of sudden liberation and revolutionary change slows down and gives us something rare: the chance to actually understand everything it has been awakening in our lives. This is not just any Uranus retrog...

On August 27th, 2026, a Lunar Eclipse rises at 4°54’ Pisces — the third and final eclipse in this sign since 2024. We will not have another Pisces eclipse until 2034. This is not just a closing. It is an initiation. The Moon lands almost exactly on Fomalhaut — the fixed star of Archangel Gabriel, one of the four Royal Stars of antiquity. And it falls inside Gene Key 55, known in Richard Rudd’s sys...

There is an area of your chart that has been under extraordinary pressure for roughly 15 years. Not one planet. Three — Neptune, Saturn, and the North Node of the Moon — moving through the same house of your chart, one after another, and for a significant stretch of time, all at once. That area is wherever Pisces falls in your chart. And if that specific area of your life has felt foggy, heavy, co...

Each day of the week is ruled by one of the seven traditional planets — and once you understand that, the week stops feeling random and starts feeling navigable. In this episode, Narayana Montufar walks through all seven planetary days, how she personally uses each one in her own life, and how your natal chart personalizes the experience. Monday through Sunday, planet by planet. Links: Book a read...

Chiron — the wounded healer of astrology — stations retrograde on August 3rd, 2026 at 0° Taurus and begins a five-month journey through two signs: pausing at the threshold of Taurus before returning to late Aries, where it stations direct on January 6th, 2027 at 26° Aries. In this episode, Narayana Montufar walks through the full retrograde arc: what Chiron actually is and why it is called the wou...

The Solar Eclipse in Leo arrives on August 12th — the third eclipse of 2026 and the kickoff of 18 months on the Leo-Aquarius nodal axis (North Node Aquarius, South Node Leo) running through March 2028. In this episode, Narayana Montufar explains how nodes create eclipses, what the South Node in Leo is releasing collectively, what the North Node in Aquarius is building toward, and the extraordinary...

The Full Moon in Aquarius on July 29th, 2026 is the emotional and collective peak of Barbault’s Basket — the most significant astrological configuration of the century. The Sun is conjunct Jupiter almost to the exact minute in Leo. The Moon is conjunct Pluto retrograde and Pallas Athene retrograde at 6°, 4°, and 2° Aquarius. Uranus in Gemini trines the Moon and sextiles both the Sun and Jupiter si...

Saturn stations retrograde on July 26th, 2026, at 14°45’ Aries — and does not move direct again until December 10th at 7°55’ Aries. For 137 days, the only planet considered stronger in retrograde than direct turns its full force inward. The inner teacher becomes active. The universal hand of karmic justice — remember, Saturn exalts in Libra — begins its accounting.  In this episode, professional a...

On July 7th, 2026, Neptune stations retrograde at 4°25’ Aries — and for 158 days, until December 12th, the great hypnotist of the solar system turns inward. The spell lifts. And what we have been seeing through Neptune’s glamorous glow finally reveals itself for what it actually is. This retrograde cannot be understood without the Saturn-Neptune conjunction that happened at the very beginning of 2...

The New Moon in Cancer that arrives on July 14 is one of the most emotionally significant lunations of 2026. Arriving in the heart of Mercury retrograde in Cancer, squared by asteroids Vesta and Pallas Athene in Aries, and activated by the fixed star Castor, this New Moon is not asking for bold new declarations. It is asking a quieter, more essential question: is your strategy still in service of...

Jupiter enters Leo on June 30th, 2026 for the first time since 2014—and this is not the same transit you remember. In this episode, I walk you through the first and most important chapter of a 13-month story: what Jupiter in Leo means at the collective and personal level, why it arrives as the final piece of Barbault's Basket—the most significant astrological configuration of the century—and...

The Full Moon in Capricorn on June 29th, 2026, is one of the most significant lunations of the entire year—and it arrives on one of the busiest astrological days of 2026. On this same day, Mercury stations retrograde in Cancer and Jupiter enters Leo after nearly a year in Cancer.  In this podcast, I walk you through everything this Full Moon is carrying: its conjunction with the fixed star Facies,...

Mercury goes retrograde in Cancer on June 29, and it does not go direct again until July 23. This is not a typical Mercury retrograde. It is the second of three Mercury retrogrades happening in water signs in 2026, and together they form a grand water trine in Pisces, Cancer, and Scorpio — a continuous thread of emotional recalibration running through the entire year. ✨ LINKS Book a personal read...

In July 2026, all four outer planets — Jupiter, Pluto, Uranus, and Neptune — align at exactly four degrees in a configuration the great French astrologer André Barbault identified decades ago and called The Basket. He described it as the most beneficial astrological configuration of the century and “a splendid relaunch of civilization.” This is a once-in-recorded-history convergence of sacred geom...
