The Sun, planet of spirit and identity, is in Uttara Bhadrapada, the benevolent and spiritual nakshatra within the zodiacal sign of Pisces, from March 18th to 31st 2026.

Uttara’s name translates to ‘beautiful left foot’, and its influence brings you an intelligent and questioning quality with a focus on the finer things in life. A number of planets combine in Pisces around the Sun through this transit, including Mercury and Venus, both retrograde, which adds complication and potential confusion to your ambitions. Relationships in particular are deep, and you want more than one thing from any one single person.

At work, your usual solar instinct is to take charge and lead by example, but it may be better to watch and wait, at least until after the Pisces New Moon of March 19th. The Sun also comes together with its planetary enemy, Saturn, at this point to give you added responsibility, and you can’t rely on natural charisma to see you through. You may be challenged by authority and should leave yourself more time and negotiating space to reach your goals. There is a karmic quality to this test, and you are aware of business pressures and the games some people play, but you can still rise above it.

Uttara’s Shakti, or special power, for Bringing Rain, however, sees you cultivating new ideas, and the Sun energizes this nakshatra’s flair for wealth creation. From March 25th to 31st, the Sun sits between the sweet influences of Mercury and Venus, which allows you to express yourself easily. Use this window to make a tricky request or handle a sensitive matter where you have to find exactly the right words.
