In this episode, we'll explore the astrology of Taurus season 2026. This period asks us to get more honest with ourselves and commit to something in the midst of real, lasting change. With a powerful Venus–Uranus conjunction marking a turning point in values, relationships, and self-worth, followed by Uranus entering Gemini, this season brings both sudden, new clarity and momentum in unexpected ways. Listen to understand how to work with these shifts in a more intentional way as you move through the next few weeks.

Transit charts show us how the planets – as they are configured in the sky today – interact with our natal chart to create new experiences and possibilities in our day-to-day lives. If you understand the energies you currently have at your disposal, you can make the most of them and become an active co-creator with the Universe. Listen to find out how to pull a transit chart, how to use one, and how to interpret them. You’ll also get information about this week’s lunar eclipse in Pisces, including what it means for all of us, collectively, and how to use a transit chart to find out what it might mean for you.

You can pull a transit chart for yourself using the calculator here: https://horoscopes.astro-seek.com/transit-chart-planetary-transits. The planets on the inner ring (in blue) are your natal planets, while the planets in the outer ring (in orange) are the transiting planets.
