Sun–Venus Conjunction: Every Meeting, 2026 to 2028
4 meetings · Sagittarius, Libra, Cancer and Taurus
Between 2026 and 2028 the site’s DE421 table records four conjunctions of the Sun and Venus — days on which the two share a sidereal longitude — in Sagittarius, Libra, Cancer and Taurus. Successive meetings come 291 to 294 days apart.
The Sun and Venus count each other an enemy. In two of the four meetings the sign belongs to one of the pair itself (Libra, 24 October 2026 and Taurus, 1 June 2028).
Venus orbits inside the Earth’s orbit, so it meets the Sun two ways: at inferior conjunction, passing between the Earth and the Sun while retrograde, and at superior conjunction, on the far side of the Sun while direct. Of these four, two are inferior (24 October 2026 and 1 June 2028) and the rest superior.
The Four Meetings
| Day | Sign, degree | Nakshatra | Sun | Venus |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6 January 2026 | Sagittarius 22° | Purva Ashadha 3 | in a friend's sign | in a neutral sign |
| 24 October 2026 | Libra 6° | Chitra (near a pada edge) | debilitated | in its own sign, retrograde |
| 12 August 2027 | Cancer 24° | Ashlesha 3 | in a friend's sign | in an enemy's sign |
| 1 June 2028 | Taurus 17° | Rohini 3 | in an enemy's sign | in its own sign, retrograde |
The dignity columns are each graha’s standing in the sign of the meeting, as the planet-in-sign pages give it; the nakshatra is the one the shared longitude falls in. “Retrograde” marks a meeting inside one of the graha’s retrograde windows. For Sun–Venus every date is a day, not a time: the table does carry a minute, but the site publishes a conjunction to the day, the resolution independent tables agree on.
A conjunction in the sky touches every chart at once, in whichever house that sign falls for it; it is not a reading of anyone’s chart. For the Sun and Venus in a birth chart, see the Sun and Venus pages, and for how grahas are read together, astrology for beginners and what Vedic astrology is.
