2026 Astrology Calendar: Moons, Eclipses & Retrogrades
Browse 22 major astrological events in 2026, with dates, times, and detailed guides to lunar phases, eclipses, retrogrades, and planetary changes.
The remaining 2026 calendar begins October 23. Every New and Full Moon, eclipse, major-planet sign change, retrograde and direct station, and major slow-planet aspect has a dedicated guide. Solar equinoxes and solstices are included with their corresponding Sun ingresses. First- and last-quarter phases are covered as part of the lunar cycle rather than separate event articles. Minor aspects, daily lunar ingresses, and asteroid transits other than Chiron are outside this collection.
All displayed dates use U.S. Eastern Time, with daylight saving time applied. Open a guide for UTC, the zodiac position, interpretation, a rising-sign house map, and sources. Eclipse guides distinguish the phase time from greatest eclipse and local visibility.
