The calendar on the wall has changed. The year 2026 has come. This is the year of the Sun. Many people are hoping that this year will not be as challenging as 2025. May 2026 bring all the happiness that people could not get in 2025. But such desires are fulfilled only when the position of the planets is favourable. Let us know from the well-known astrologers of the country what the planetary movements are indicating for the new year 2026 and how this year will be for the people.
Shailendra Pandey, Astrologer: If we compare 2025 and 2026, 2026 is not as challenging a year as 2025 was. According to the Indian calendar, Jupiter is the king and Mars is the minister for 2026. In such a situation, some big changes will be seen in the country and the world. There may be some important changes in the corridors of power or politics. However, this year will not be as negative as 2025. People do not need to worry much on career, business or health front.
Y. Rakhi, Tarot Card Reader: No new year is completely bad or completely good. 2025 wasn’t all bad either. Many people built their own houses. Women’s cricket team won the World Cup. India’s decisions were very effective. While a condemnable incident like Pahalgam happened, the whole world saw India’s strength and dominance in Operation Sindoor. The new year 2026 may also be mixed. People may have to face some challenges on the professional front. Father’s health may deteriorate slightly. But this is a year of new beginnings. This year people will show a different kind of energy, willpower and confidence. This time seems favorable for those starting new ventures or startups. Your new plans will prove beneficial. However, there may be major upheaval in politics. You will see it from India to America. Some big changes can be seen in the education sector.
Praveen Mishra, Astrologer: New year 2026 will be much better in many ways. Three planets will play an important role this year. Jupiter will be the king in the new Vikram Samvat. Mars will be in the role of minister. And according to numerology, because the number of 2026 is 1, it is the year of the Sun. This means that the three major planets are in a strong position this year. Therefore, the problems we faced in 2025 will be significantly reduced. This will strengthen the economic condition of the people. Increase in income is possible. Sources of income will increase. This year is looking good in terms of career and personal life.
Sanjeev Shandilya, Astrologer: Like 2025, the new year 2026 can also be somewhat challenging. Astrological calculations show that a major disaster may occur in 2026. The country may have to face crises like earthquake or flood. A major change is possible in global politics. This year will be more dangerous than 2025 because the Sun and Mars will be almost together till May. When they are within 15 degrees of each other, some major incident, accident or disaster is possible within the country. There is also a possibility of bank scam. However, progress is possible for our country in the fields of politics, sports and finance.
Shruti Dwivedi, Astrologer: New year 2026 is looking much better than 2025. This year, ruling planet Jupiter is in high gear, and it will change signs in June and October. After that, Rahu will change its movement in December. Some big changes may occur during this period. Apart from this, this year will be very good for solar energy and healthcare sectors. Major changes may take place in the areas of defence, security systems, AI, internal security and banking.
