Libra 2026 Year Horoscope

While, in terms of the number of shifts the major outer planets are making this year, there is just as much change in 2026 as there was in 2025, in every case this is nothing new. Instead, it is completing what began last year and locking it into place.

We have never, and will never again, see so many outer planets change position at the same time as we are witnessing across 2025 and 2026. The difference this year is that there are no surprises, only a continuation of what is already underway. If 2025 was part one, then 2026 is part two.

By the time you moved into 2025, Pluto, the planet of change and transformation and the planet that began it all, had only weeks earlier finished his transition into a playful and creative part of your chart, where he will now stay until 2044.

The next planet to shift was Neptune, who, after being in your work sector since 2012, left in March 2025, only to retrograde back in seven months later. At the same time, Saturn, who had been there since March 2023, left at the end of May, only to return just over three months later.

Both are still here as you move into 2026, but are back in direct motion and getting ready to leave. In Neptune’s case, he will not return again in our lifetime and Saturn will not return for another three decades.

Neptune will leave on 27th January and Saturn on 14th February, right in the heart of what will be some of the most active months of the year on the job front. This activity begins with Mercury’s return on 7th February and runs through to Mars’ departure on 10th April.

With Jupiter in your career sector until 30th June and the faster planets moving through from Venus’ return on 19th May to Mars’ departure on 28th September, this is set to be a big year on both the job and career fronts, despite the departure of Neptune and Saturn.

At the same time, this year will also see Neptune return to your relationship sector on 27th January, where he will remain for the next 13 years, followed by Saturn on 14th February, where he will stay until 2028.

Meanwhile, Uranus, who after six years left your financial sector in July 2025, also retrograded back. He will finally turn direct on 5th February and then leave again on 26th April, not returning for another eight decades. This completes Uranus’ transition into your sector of adventure, travel, learning and discovery, where he will stay until 2033, all while remaining closely aligned with Pluto in that playful and creative part of your chart.
