Astrological Insights Forecast a Tumultuous Year for Trump and America in 2026
As the new year unfolds, Donald Trump has already made headlines with forceful political moves, but according to astrologers, his most chaotic actions are still on the horizon. The ancient practice of astrology, which examines celestial placements to interpret human energy and destiny, suggests that 2026 holds significant challenges for the former president and the nation.
Interpreting Trump's Natal Chart and Planetary Influences
Astrologers base their predictions on Trump's natal chart, a map of the planets and stars at his birth time. Lisa Stardust, a noted astrologer, explains that this chart reveals inherent energies that shape personality and life events. "Astrology tells us the energy that we're born with," Stardust said. "All of these elements give people their own unique DNA." For instance, Trump's Leo rising sign at 29 degrees is considered a sensitive placement, potentially explaining his aggressive and impulsive communication style.
The Uranus Return: A Rare Transformative Period
A key factor in 2026 is Trump's Uranus return, a rare astrological event occurring when Uranus revisits its birth position. This phase, which happens approximately every 84 years, often brings relationship breakdowns and life disruptions. Stardust warns that for Trump, this could spark rebellion and conflicts with close associates. "There is an instance for rebellion in his chart. So I think that he might have some issues with a lot of his colleagues and people that he's close with," she noted.
February's Celestial Events: Eclipses and Planetary Alignments
Astrologers highlight February as a critical month that could set the tone for the year. On February 17, a solar eclipse with revolutionary energy will occur, which astrologer Celeste Brooks identifies as highly significant for Trump. This eclipse aligns with Leo, his rising sign, opposite Aquarius, potentially indicating health or life-altering events. "This could be a time when sometimes people die," Brooks cautioned, though she clarified that eclipses symbolize themes rather than directly causing events.
Additionally, on February 20, Saturn and Neptune will cross in the sky for the first time in decades, an alignment last seen in 1989 during events like the fall of the Berlin Wall. Brooks describes this as a moment when illusions shatter: "You can't pretend anymore that you don't see what's right before your eyes." Astrologer Liz Simmons adds that under Trump's leadership, this energy might dissolve structures, possibly leading to conflicts or geopolitical shifts, as seen in recent actions like the removal of world leaders.
Implications for America and Global Affairs
The astrological readings suggest that Trump's personal chart influences broader national and international dynamics. With his ninth house, governing foreign journeys and education, ruled by Mars—a planet of action and aggression—Simmons predicts "war on those ninth house themes" in his 80th year, potentially impacting global stages and educational systems. Brooks summarizes that February will deliver a huge wake-up call, challenging perceptions of the United States and its role in the world.
In summary, astrologers foresee a turbulent 2026 driven by celestial patterns, urging attention to how these cosmic forces might manifest in Trump's actions and global events.
