Yearly horoscope
Makara (Capricorn): 2026
The year, in one line
Ketu stands in Simha, your 8th house from the Moon. This is the one slow graha standing in a house the tradition treats as asking rather than giving.
What this year opens for you
It favours letting go of what you are only keeping out of habit. Ketu thins the appetite for things that were never really yours, which is uncomfortable while it happens and is exactly what makes room. Good season for finishing, for giving away, for the practice that asks nothing of the world.
The year's long tides
The four slow grahas, stretch by stretch, counted from your Moon sign.
Guru
1 Jan – 1 Jun: Guru in Mithuna, your 6th house
service, obstacles overcome, discipline, health kept by work
2 Jun – 30 Oct: Guru in Karka, your 7th house
the partner, and every agreement you make
31 Oct – 31 Dec: Guru in Simha, your 8th house
what is hidden, inherited, endured, and transformed
Guru asks you to make room — for study, for a teacher, for a responsibility larger than the one you have. Its own trap is expansion without ground: more taken on than can be carried well. The question is not whether to grow but what you are willing to be answerable for.
Shani
1 Jan – 31 Dec: Shani in Meena, your 3rd house
courage, effort, siblings, your own hands
Shani asks for what is slow and unglamorous: the thing kept up when nobody is watching, the commitment honoured after the enthusiasm has gone. It is not punishment and it does not take anything from you that was actually yours. What it exposes is what was being held up by momentum rather than by structure.
Rahu
1 Jan – 4 Dec: Rahu in Kumbha, your 2nd house
speech, family wealth, what you hold
5 Dec – 31 Dec: Rahu in Makara, your 1st house
the body and the self you arrive as
Rahu asks for honesty about hunger. It sharpens wanting — for standing, for recognition, for the thing just out of reach — and it is very good at making that feel like purpose. Name what you actually want and the pull stops running you from underneath.
Ketu
1 Jan – 4 Dec: Ketu in Simha, your 8th house
what is hidden, inherited, endured, and transformed
5 Dec – 31 Dec: Ketu in Karka, your 7th house
the partner, and every agreement you make
Ketu asks what you are ready to stop defending. Interest drains out of something that used to hold it, and the tradition treats that as release rather than loss. What it clears is rarely what you would have chosen to clear, and rarely what you needed.
When grahas turn back
A graha that turns back (vakri) asks you to revisit what it governs: slower, more careful, finishing before starting. It is not a warning.

Your act for this year
Give away one thing you have kept for a reason you can no longer state.
The eight limbs — where the tradition puts withdrawal →An observation, not a forecast. The year reads only the slow grahas and the turning windows, counted from the Moon sign Makara. Eclipses are not shown yet: VEDAUM prints only what it has computed. Your own chart, and its dasha, say far more.
