Four zodiac signs experienced two long years of hard times, but the struggles are finally coming to an end. The Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on August 28 marked a major turning point. Now, we are out of survival mode and ready to thrive. 

"Think back to September 2024," an astrologer named Eleanor advised, "because whatever [you've been] struggling with since back then is finally coming to a conclusion." You might get the answer to a long-standing question or realize you're ready to let go of the baggage you've been carrying around. Either way, you feel free!

For you, Pisces, the last two years have been quite eventful. In 2024, you looked at a situation you were in and realized you were over it. Perhaps you outgrew your relationship or found yourself in a draining career. Whatever it was, you realized you were unhappy in your life.

While 2024 was the year of realization, 2025 was your year of action. "This was the year when there was no going back to the old you," Eleanor explained. "There were moments when you barely recognized your own life anymore because so much was changing at once." Maybe your relationship ended, or you moved far from home. Perhaps you started a new career.

That brings us to 2026. The Full Moon Lunar Eclipse rose in your sign on August 28, forcing you to make a decision. This energy is still potent, so if you haven't faced a choice yet, just you wait. While this would have scared you two years ago, you're braver than ever now. Everything's clicking into place, making you feel more certain about the path you're on.

The last two years of your life have been defined by struggle, Virgo. In 2024, you experienced a major turning point. "Somebody entered or left your life and completely changed what you thought your future was going to look like," the astrologer explained. 

You were forced to start over from scratch, and though it was difficult, it was really a blessing in disguise. Throughout this time, you learned to choose yourself. You stopped people-pleasing and self-sacrificing. Finally, you have your own best interests at heart. 

People might hate you for it, and you may have even lost a few friends along the way. But that's only because they can't use you any longer, so good riddance! Now, you have room to meet people who love the real you.

3. Sagittarius

In 2024, your definition of security did a complete 180. According to Eleanor, "Something involving your home, family, career, or the place you thought you belonged became uncertain, and suddenly you were thinking about decisions you never expected to make." This was challenging, but it taught you a very important lesson: you can't live your life to make others happy. 

This realization sparked a drastic change in you. Perhaps you changed careers or spontaneously moved across the country. You grew up, but it wasn't all sunshine and rainbows. You may have reached a major goal, only to realize it wasn't quite as fulfilling as you hoped.

Now, in 2026, you're back to setting down roots. "You know where you want to live and your career finally has a clearer direction," Eleanor said. "What looked like your life falling apart in 2024 was the beginning of you building a life that you are proud of." So, embrace these changes, Sagittarius. This is the life that you've been working towards.

Once upon a time, you had a clear-cut vision of the life you wanted to live. Perhaps, you even had a 10-year plan. But as it goes, the universe had another idea in store, and that became obvious in 2024. According to Eleanor, "You got an opportunity that changed your life's trajectory or realized the path you were already on wasn't taking you anywhere you wanted to go." 

So, in 2025, you made a big change that many in your life didn't approve of. Maybe you left a stable job for something more risky. You wanted more out of life, even if others didn't get it. 

Of course, you've experienced many hardships along the way. But in 2026, your bravery is paying off. "Your life may not look anything like the plan you originally had for yourself," Eleanor said," but you're finally starting to understand why it couldn't."
