On November 22, 2026 at 08:23 (CET), the Sun leaves Scorpio and moves into Sagittarius. The planet keeps its job and changes its style, like someone wearing a new coat to the same work. Whatever Sun sets in motion in your everyday life now carries the color of Sagittarius.
What does the Sun mean?
Your Sun is the core of who you are: your will, your awareness, the engine that drags you out of bed each morning.

Where it sits in your chart names your basic theme, the part of you that wants to be seen and that every other planet circles.
What does Sagittarius mean?
Sagittarius pushes the horizon out. Travel, meaning and belief are its themes, the reasons to get up in the morning. It wants to understand how the world fits together and will happily leave a country, a philosophy or a habit behind to find out. Where Sagittarius is active, a vision grows that's larger than everyday life.

When does the Sun enter Sagittarius?
It happens exactly once a year, though the day moves around a little. From 1900 to 2100 the ingress landed most often on November 22 (62.7 % of years). The earliest date was November 21, the latest November 23.
Blame the calendar. A solar year runs about 365 days and 6 hours, while the calendar counts only 365 and makes up the difference with a leap day every fourth year. So the ingress drifts roughly six hours later each year until a leap year pulls it back.
