#sidereal transits

Mercury entered retrograde in sidereal Scorpio (tropical Sagittarius) on November 10th and it will retrograde until November 29th. Mercury will enter retrograde in sidereal Libra on November 23rd.

With this Mercury in retrograde, this is a time when we need to process our feelings and emotions and how we express them. This is the time to uncover any hidden secrets, truths, or knowledge that has been waiting for discovery. This might be a time when we need to be more vulnerable with those closest to us, especially about our mental, spiritual, and emotional environment.

Mercury retrograde in sidereal Scorpio is the time when we need to pause and really tune into our intuition. Our psychic senses and intuition have messages and signs for us and it’s up to us to decode and decipher these messages. We’re being pushed into our highest timeline, but in order to get there, we have to really tap into our intuitive gifts and senses.

Mercury retrograde in Scorpio is the time to say what you’ve been wanting to say. Don’t hold back what you’ve been needing and trying to say. It needs to be said and expressed. If you want people to truly know who you are and what you value, you need to be willing to communicate and open up. Don’t close yourself off and hide in the shadows of doubt, invisibility, and fear.

Quick observation of sidereal transits and how they activate major career milestones.

In this post I have observed all 3 Coachella headliners for 2026 (Justin Bieber, Sabrina Carpenter, Karol G) who all have important sidereal transits to their natal charts.

Current 2026 sidereal transits (as of April 2026): ★ Rahu in aquarius / ketu in leo ★ Saturn in pisces ★ Jupiter in gemini

Justin Bieber currently has transit rahu/ketu in his 4H/10H axis. Rahu is also activating his aquarius stellium. Aquarius = masses of people, crowds, larger networks of people. Transits to kendra houses (1H/4H/7H/10H) are also highly impactful in one's life.

His 10H lord sun is conjunct transit rahu. 10H = career and public appearance or image. Rahu = fame, technology, media, mass attention.

Transit rahu activates natal venus (the arts), mars (1H lord signifying one's life journey), saturn (natural significator of career).

Transit saturn in pisces sits in Justin's 5H. 5H = creativity and artistic talents; saturn = career. It also casts its effect on 11H thru 7th aspect. Saturn is the lord of his stellium in aquarius thus, this transit also activates his natal planets.

Sabrina Carpenter's birth time is unreliable. She could be an aquarius moon (in that case transit rahu would conjunct natal moon), but I've observed her moon chart for the purpose of this post (which makes her a pisces moon).

Sabrina has transit saturn in pisces sitting with natal jupiter. In her chart, saturn is lord of 11H. 11H = masses of people, large crowds, networks of people. Saturn is also the natural significator of one's career. Jupiter is also the lord of her 1H/10H. 1H = one's life journey; 10H = career.

Transit jupiter in gemini is sitting in the same house as her natal venus. Venus = the arts. When jupiter activates natal venus, it essentially inflates and brings its blessings. Also, transit jupiter in 4H is having an effect on her 10H (thru 7th aspect). 10H = career.

Karol G's birth time is unknown, I have also observed her moon chart here.

Transit rahu/ketu is activating her 1H/7H axis. Rahu = mass fame, media exposure, etc. 1H = one's life path, life journey. 7H = business, business contracts.

Transit jupiter in gemini sits in 5H from moon. Jupiter = blessings; 5H = creativity, talents, one's blessings from past lives. Transit jupiter also has its effect on 11H (masses of people) thru 7th aspect.
