In traditional astrology, a solar eclipse (new moon) opens a new chapter in the part of life ruled by its sign, and a lunar eclipse (full moon) brings something to a head or to an end. The signs listed under each season are the ones astrologers say feel it most. This is for reflection and entertainment, not a prediction.
February–March 2026
Axis: Aquarius · Virgo
The annular eclipse at the last degree of Aquarius closes a chapter about freedom versus closeness. The total lunar eclipse in Virgo two weeks later shines a light on the daily habits of a relationship: who does what, and whether the routine still feels like care.
Felt most by: Aquarius, Leo, Virgo, Pisces

August 2026
Axis: Leo · Pisces
A total solar eclipse in Leo is the classic signal of a new beginning in romance: being seen, flirting again, saying what you want out loud. The partial lunar eclipse in Pisces at the end of the month asks you to let go of a fantasy that never became real.
Felt most by: Leo, Aquarius, Taurus, Scorpio, Pisces

February 2027
Axis: Aquarius · Virgo
The second Aquarius eclipse of the cycle tests friendships that may become more, and relationships that need more breathing room. The penumbral lunar eclipse in Virgo is subtle: small, honest adjustments rather than dramatic endings.
Felt most by: Aquarius, Leo, Taurus, Scorpio

July–August 2027
Axis: Leo · Aquarius
The longest total solar eclipse of the decade (6 min 23 s over Egypt) falls in Leo: astrologers read it as a strong push toward a heart-led decision. Two faint penumbral eclipses frame it, in Capricorn and Aquarius, around commitment and independence.

January 2028
Axis: Cancer · Aquarius
The partial lunar eclipse in Cancer brings family and emotional security into the relationship conversation. The annular solar eclipse in Aquarius two weeks later closes the Leo–Aquarius cycle: what you learned about love and freedom since 2026 settles.
Felt most by: Cancer, Capricorn, Aquarius, Leo
Partial lunar · Tue, Jan 11, 2028 / Annular solar · Wed, Jan 26, 2028
July 2028
Axis: Cancer · Capricorn
Eclipses move onto the home-and-commitment axis. The lunar eclipse in Capricorn questions long-term plans; the total solar eclipse at the last degree of Cancer (over Australia and New Zealand) opens a new start around home, moving in together or family.
Felt most by: Cancer, Capricorn, Aries, Libra

December 2028 – January 2029
Axis: Cancer · Capricorn
A total lunar eclipse in Cancer on New Year's Eve 2028 is a classic emotional release: what you need from a partner becomes impossible to ignore. The partial solar eclipse in Capricorn, visible across North America, favors serious, practical commitments.

June–July 2029
Axis: Gemini · Capricorn · Cancer
A rare three-eclipse season. The total lunar eclipse in Capricorn is the longest of the decade (1 h 42 min of totality), visible from the Americas: a strong marker for endings or turning points in long relationships. Two partial solar eclipses, in Gemini and Cancer, bring new conversations and a fresh start at home.

June 2030
Axis: Gemini · Sagittarius
The annular solar eclipse in Gemini starts a cycle about how couples talk, text and listen. The partial lunar eclipse in Sagittarius two weeks later questions the freedom each partner needs.

Annular solar · Sat, Jun 1, 2030 / Partial lunar · Sat, Jun 15, 2030
November–December 2030
Axis: Sagittarius · Gemini
A total solar eclipse in early Sagittarius opens a bold chapter: a long-distance love, a move, or a relationship built on a shared adventure. The penumbral lunar eclipse in Gemini softly closes the decade's eclipse story.

Astrologers usually advise against forcing big decisions on the day of an eclipse: the effects are said to unfold over the following weeks and months. Look at the sign of the eclipse, then check your love horoscope for that sign and your rising sign: an eclipse in your sun or rising sign is the one to watch. For couples, compare the eclipse sign with both charts in our compatibility guides. Planning a wedding? Cross these dates with the Mercury retrograde 2027 calendar.

The next eclipse is the annular solar eclipse of Feb 6, 2027, at 17°38′ Aquarius. It can be seen from: South America, Antarctica, western & southern Africa — annular path over Chile, Argentina and the Atlantic. The full list below covers every eclipse through 2030.
There are 24 eclipses from 2026 to 2030: 12 solar eclipses (4 total, 4 annular, 4 partial) and 12 lunar eclipses (4 total, 4 partial, 4 penumbral), according to NASA's eclipse catalog.
From 2026 to 2030, no total or annular solar eclipse crosses the contiguous United States. Partial solar eclipses are visible from parts of North America on August 12, 2026 (northern areas), January 26, 2028 (eastern areas) and January 14, 2029. The total lunar eclipses of March 3, 2026, June 26, 2029 and December 20, 2029 are visible from the Americas.
In traditional Western astrology, a solar eclipse falls on a new moon and is read as a fresh start in the area of life ruled by its sign, while a lunar eclipse falls on a full moon and is read as a culmination or an ending. Eclipses come in seasons about six months apart and move backward through pairs of opposite signs over roughly 18 months.
Never look at the Sun directly during a partial or annular solar eclipse, even for a few seconds: use ISO 12312-2 certified eclipse glasses or a pinhole projector. Lunar eclipses are safe to watch with the naked eye.
