The first astrological previews for next year? They are already in bookstores and on digital platforms. The book “Horoscope 2026, the roads of the future” (Rizzoli publisher), written by Simon & the Stars with Claudio Roe, it is a journey into the trajectories traced by the stars: for our lives and for that of the planet. The expert astrologer, former lawyer, producer and film agent Simone Morandi, a popular face on the small screen and on social media, has studied the planets of the coming year, their positions and influences, to offer us an overview of what awaits us both on a planetary and personal level, depending on the zodiac sign to which we belong.
Here’s how he introduces 2026: “Year 1. A new beginning, a paradigm shift, a departure in style. What in 2025 showed the first signs of the wear and tear of time, in 2026 it has the possibility of being reinvented, relaunched or replaced with something new. A real Big Bang also at the level numerologicalso much so that we have decided to dedicate an appendix to its ‘figures’, to help you calculate, based on your date of birth, what type of start it will be”.
For Simon the key word of the new year is this: beginning. A word that marks an important turning point for everyone. “After all – he explains in the book – all the great transits of 2026 confirm this, to which a good part of this introduction is dedicated. From the entry of Neptune and Saturn into Aries (first sign of the Zodiac, expression of the “beginnings” par excellence) to return of Uranus to Gemini, everything in this sky speaks of movement, redemption and new opportunities. The backdrop to all this is Pluto, which returned to Aquarius after a quarter of a millennium to rekindle the great ideals of the second half of the eighteenth century.”
In this introduction Simon refers to the great revolutions of history: the French Revolution, the Industrial Revolution, American Independence. He specifies: “The seeds of this awakening began working within us as early as 2025: it became clearer to us what needed to change in our liveshow to intervene and where to direct our efforts. 2026 picks up that baton and pushes us to get moving. To move ‘a first step into a wider world’to use the words that Obi-Wan Kenobi addresses to a young and inexperienced Luke Skywalker, after teaching him the first rudiments of the Force.”
Each sign will have its own specific strength, but with one trait in common for all: “Everyone will be given back the ‘scepter’ which in past years, more or less consciously, was placed in the hands of someone else.”. In order not to spoil the content of the book, which is long and detailed, we summarize the path for each zodiac sign each sign in 2026, associated with three tarot cards: “Your journey in three acts”.
