Yes, 2027 is a good year for Aquarius, and a pivotal one: it brings personal turning points and big relationship moves. Two eclipses fall in your sign, on February 6 and August 17, while Pluto stays in your first house and Jupiter blesses your seventh house of partnership until July 26. The two dates to circle are February 6, the annular solar eclipse at 17 degrees 38 minutes of Aquarius, and August 2, the total solar eclipse in your seventh house. In one line: become who you are next, and choose who comes with you. Every date below is computed from the ephemeris for the tropical zodiac and given in Universal Time, with houses counted from your Sun sign.

The big transits for Aquarius in 2027
- Jupiter in Leo, your 7th house, until July 26. Your strongest Jupiter period for partnership in about twelve years. Jupiter is retrograde until April 13 (the evening of April 12 in the Americas), so a past partner or unfinished agreement may return first. On July 26 it enters Virgo, your 8th house, until August 24, 2028: shared resources, investments and support grow.
- Saturn and Neptune in Aries, your 3rd house, all year. Saturn, your traditional ruler, spends a second year in your house of learning, writing, contracts, siblings and daily travel. It rewards disciplined communication, while Neptune inspires but blurs details. Saturn is retrograde from August 9 to December 24 (December 23 in the Americas) and Neptune from July 9 to December 15.
- Uranus, your modern ruler, in Gemini, your 5th house. Romance, creativity, children and fun change suddenly. Uranus turns direct on February 8 and retrograde on September 15. Jupiter squares Uranus on September 10, a sudden choice between security and freedom.
- Pluto in Aquarius, your 1st house. Since November 19, 2024 Pluto has been reshaping your identity, body and presence. It is retrograde from May 8 to October 18 (October 17 in the Americas). Uranus trines Pluto on June 15, linking your 5th and 1st houses: a creative breakthrough that changes how you see yourself.
- The nodes. The North Node is in Aquarius (your 1st) and the South Node in Leo (your 7th) all year. Grow toward independence and do not lose yourself in a partner's needs.
The 2027 eclipses for Aquarius
| Eclipse (UTC) | Type | Sign | Your house |
|---|---|---|---|
| Feb 6, 15:59 (10:59 am ET) | Annular solar | 17 degrees Aquarius | 1st: you, your image, your direction |
| Feb 20, 23:12 (6:12 pm ET) | Penumbral lunar | 2 degrees Virgo | 8th: shared money, intimacy |
| Jul 18, 16:02 (12:02 pm ET) | Penumbral lunar, very faint | 25 degrees Capricorn | 12th: rest, endings |
| Aug 2, 10:06 (6:06 am ET) | Total solar | 9 degrees Leo | 7th: partnership |
| Aug 17, 07:13 (3:13 am ET) | Penumbral lunar | 24 degrees Aquarius | 1st: you, your image, your direction |
Aquarius is the only sign with two of the five 2027 eclipses in it. The February 6 annular eclipse opens a new personal chapter, such as a new look, a new direction or a new way of introducing yourself, and the August 17 lunar eclipse brings it to a head. Between them, the August 2 total solar eclipse, the longest of any year from 2010 to 2100 with about 6 minutes 25 seconds of totality at Luxor, lands in your seventh house. That is the partnership turning point: a commitment, a new business partner or an honest ending, with the South Node there asking you to release a role you have outgrown.
Mercury, Mars and Venus retrograde 2027 for Aquarius
| Mercury retrograde (UTC) | Starts in | Backs into | Shadow clears |
|---|---|---|---|
| Feb 9 to Mar 3 | Pisces, your 2nd | Aquarius, your 1st, Feb 18 | Mar 23 |
| Jun 10 to Jul 4 | Cancer, your 6th | Gemini, your 5th, Jun 26 | Jul 19 |
| Oct 7 to Oct 28 | Scorpio, your 10th | Libra, your 9th, Oct 16 | Nov 13 |
The February retrograde lands in your birthday season. It starts in your second house of money on February 9 and backs into Aquarius on February 18, so finalise birthday plans, purchases and personal launches after its shadow clears on March 23. The June pass slows work routines and then romance, and the October one starts in your tenth house of career, so double-check job messages until mid-November.
Mars is retrograde from January 10 to April 1. It stations at 10 degrees 26 minutes of Virgo, your 8th house, backs into Leo, your 7th, on February 21 and turns direct there at 20 degrees 56 minutes, staying in your 7th until May 14. Expect partnership friction in spring. Mars clears its shadow on June 8.
There is no Venus retrograde in 2027. Venus moves forward all year and next turns retrograde on May 10, 2028, in Gemini, your 5th house.
Aquarius love and relationships 2027
This is your relationship year. Jupiter in your seventh house is the biggest blessing for partnership in years, best used before it leaves on July 26. The January 22 supermoon, the only full-moon supermoon of 2027, falls in Leo, your seventh house, and the Sun opposes Jupiter on February 11 (the evening of February 10 in the Americas): two early chances to see where a relationship stands.
Spring is more combative. Mars backs into your seventh house on February 21 and stays until May 14, and Venus, in your sign from March 1 to 26, opposes Jupiter on March 16 and Mars on March 19. Attraction is strong, and so is friction, so say what you need rather than testing.
June is lighter. Venus enters Gemini, your fifth house, on June 8, meets Uranus on June 14 (the evening of June 13 in the Americas) and sextiles Jupiter on June 28, a window for sudden romance. Then Venus enters Leo, your seventh house, on July 27, six days before the August 2 eclipse there, so high summer is the turning point: a commitment, a new partner or an honest ending.
Aquarius career and money 2027
Career is steady rather than dramatic, and relationships open the doors: a partner, an agent, a client or a collaborator. Your tenth house is Scorpio. Mars crosses it from September 2 (September 1 in the Americas) to October 15 and sextiles Jupiter on September 20 (the evening of September 19 in the Americas), your best push of the year. Venus follows from October 8 (October 7 in the Americas) to November 1, and the new moon in Scorpio on October 29, the day after Mercury turns direct, is the best date to start a new role or project.
Money shifts in the second half. From July 26 Jupiter moves into your eighth house of shared money, so loans, investments, a partner's income and support you did not have to earn alone can grow. Venus meets Jupiter there on August 26 (the evening of August 25 in the Americas), and the Sun and the new moon meet it on August 31. Your own income, in Pisces, is best reorganised after March 23, once the February retrograde's shadow clears.
Aquarius health and wellbeing 2027
Pluto in your sign is a slow, deep reset of energy, body and habits, and the two eclipses there make 2027 a natural year for a lasting change rather than a quick fix. Start it after March 23, once Mercury's shadow has cleared, or at the June 4 new moon.
Your sixth house of routine is Cancer. Mercury turns retrograde there on June 10, and the July 4 new moon there (the evening of July 3 in the Americas) falls inside the retrograde, so June and early July suit repairing a routine more than inventing one. Saturn and Neptune in your third house can mean mental overload, so limit the feeds and protect your focus. May is the stress point, with Pluto stationing in your sign on May 8 and Mars squaring Uranus on May 29 (the evening of May 28 in the Americas). Mars is in Capricorn, your twelfth house, from November 25, so plan rest into December. Astrology describes timing, not diagnosis, so take any persistent symptom to a professional.
