On Friday June 26, 2026, the Moon briefly aligns with Mars in Taurus, creating an atmosphere where communication flows easily and boldly. Astrologer Patrick Arundell advises readers to trust their instincts today. For Scorpio, Sagittarius and Capricorn, the message is clear: communication doesn't have to be external. Tune into your inner world and internal conversations. Stay focused, and results will shine. Go after what you have your mind set on.
Aries (March 21 – April 20)
Just over a year ago, Jupiter, the planet of fortune, moved into a nurturing, family and property-oriented placement. At that time, Saturn, the planet of limits, slowed down the benefits Jupiter could bring. Ironically, as Jupiter heads to the exit, your ruler Mars supercharges it. Finally, in these very areas, the things you first hoped for can come to life.
Taurus (April 21 – May 21)
Today is a fabulous opportunity to share your ideas. They can land well, and people will be responsive to your practicality and desire to get things done. Yet with the Moon briefly going face-to-face with Mars in Taurus, you might get frustrated if things don't flow as fast as you'd like. Trust that you'll make an impact. Socially, things can spark well.
Gemini (May 22 – June 21)
Your financial situation has been supported all month, but have you felt the impact? Sometimes our personal cycles don't quite gel with the heavens as we'd like – usually when we are going through big changes. However, on a project or idea that you have painstakingly and quietly applied yourself to, a breakthrough is possible, and it can prove to be validating.
Cancer (June 22 – July 23)
You won't feel invincible today, but you could feel invigorated, giving you the get-go to take on the day with confidence and determination. With expansive Jupiter near to completing his thirteen-month journey through your sign, it's a fine chance to reflect on what his visit has meant to you.
Leo (July 24 – August 23)
Soon enough the fabulous energy of Jupiter will move into your sign. His movement through Cancer has likely given you a much greater appreciation of your own inner resources and the power of healing. With confident Mars connecting to him today, you can find yourself more comfortable sharing what you've learned.
Virgo (August 24 – September 23)
Your gift is managing processes. You often grapple with details with consummate ease. The planets, however, have been pushing you to broaden your approach and be more adventurous. Today supportive friendships, travel plans, and exciting new ideas are all in the mix. The finer points still matter, but it's your vision that counts most.
Libra (September 24 – October 23)
Whilst the planets can create the conditions for success, it's what we do that decides the outcome. Some ambitions may not have come to pass in the last year, but what has changed is that you have likely fine-tuned what was important to you. Being aligned with this has led to some breakthroughs of late, with another possible now.
Scorpio (October 24 – November 22)
With the Moon travelling through your sign, it's a reminder to stay in touch with your personal perspective. There could be one brief pinch point of tension, but it can soon be resolved by the fine vibe between your ruler Mars and noble Jupiter. This can help forge constructive alliances, sign off on a deal, or firm up a travel plan with a friend or partner.
Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21)
Although you may feel a little quieter today, you can take great pride in several things you have achieved recently. All sorts of transformations have been occurring at a practical, organisational, physical, and even psychological level. Take time to celebrate these and acknowledge your progress. As the Moon glides into your sign later, know things will speed up.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 21)
There's a fine chance to enjoy yourself today. The key is giving yourself permission to do so. If you have had a busy week, the allure of a quiet night in can be strong, but chances are, if you venture out, you can have a pleasurable time. Friends can be keen to meet up, but if you do have a date night, connecting emotionally can be as powerful as any attraction.
Aquarius (January 22 – February 19)
Very soon, two mighty celestial players, Mars and Jupiter, will both end their journeys through less than exciting parts of your horoscope and arrive in two very positive arenas. So, if you find yourself caught up in more mundane affairs, even if being productive, know that by the start of next week, a scintillating new phase will shape up for you.
Pisces (February 20 – March 20)
You can express yourself with additional conviction. There may also be some lighter, more playful moments. If you sometimes find it harder to put your feelings into words, this will be less of an issue. If there is someone you are keen to impress, just let things flow naturally. This is where the North Node in Pisces can help, urging you to trust the process.
