At the same time, although every sign has opportunities for growth and joy, regardless of birth chart, some signs will be tested more intensely than others. Four signs in particular will experience planetary changes that may seem difficult at the moment, but which will lay the foundations for major long-term evolution. Here are the four most challenged signs in 2026, according to an expert astrologer.
What are the 4 most spiritually tested zodiac signs in 2026?
For a complete picture, check both your sun sign and your Moon sign and Ascendant.
Leo: Deep change of identity
Jupiter, planet of abundance and luck, will transit Leo for a year starting June 30, bringing a wave of optimism, growth and opportunity. However, 2026 is also a year of radical changes, triggered by a new series of eclipses that affect your self-image and close relationships.
As a fixed sign, adapting to these transformations may seem difficult, but it will prove extremely valuable. Eclipses are high-impact monthly events whose effects are felt for up to six months and mark the beginning of new chapters in a story that unfolds over two years. This series of eclipses will last until January 2028.
The first major eclipse—a solar eclipse—occurs on February 17 in Aquarius, your opposite sign. This can bring major changes in one-on-one relationships, be they romantic, friendship or professional: defining a new relationship, deepening an existing one or breaking free from a dynamic that no longer represents you.
The second period of eclipses, on August 12, brings a solar eclipse right into Leo, activating the house of self-image. This will trigger a transformation related to confidence, body, independence and personal identity. Although painful, these “growing pains” can propel you toward a much more authentic and fulfilling life.
Virgo: Decisive moment in relationships
Since September 2024, you are already under the influence of a series of eclipses affecting your identity-relationship axis, so you are no stranger to the intense changes that have pushed you into the future. However, this does not make the experience any less demanding.
On March 3, 2026, a lunar eclipse in your sign brings to light an important relationship issue that needs immediate attention. The way you present yourself and the way you invest in a relationship—be it romantic, professional, or friendship—is under scrutiny.

If there has been a lack of reciprocity or you need different support, this Full Moon will push you to clearly express your needs and seek a solution. Around August 28, another lunar eclipse, this time in your house of relationships, will help you decide whether you want to invest more in a healthy relationship, make necessary changes, or choose a completely new path.
