The Retrograde Re-Founding of Lula’s Legacy

Under a rare Mercury–Venus double retrograde in Scorpio’s ninth house, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva is called to re-master the stories, doctrines, and international bonds that underpin his public identity.

Week at a glance

Lula enters 2026-W45 under a dense Scorpio knot in the ninth house—natal Sun, Mercury, Midheaven, and Mean Lilith—pulled into revision by a retrograde Mercury at 12° Scorpio and a retrograde Venus at 24° Libra. Mars and Jupiter in Leo stoke the seventh house of partnership, while Saturn and Neptune in Aries pressure the second house of values and resources. The week is less about forward motion than about re-grounding: a return to founding principles before the next act can begin.

Seven focus areas

Finance
Quiet week
42
Astrological background
Saturn & Neptune in 2nd house
Transiting Saturn at 9.07° Aries and Neptune at 2.01° Aries both occupy Lula’s second house of resources, opposing the natal Venus–Neptune conjunction in Libra in his eighth house. This creates a long, slow audit of what Lula actually depends on—material security, institutional support, and the narrative of growth. The Venus–Saturn opposition at 1.40° asks whether the structures he has built can carry their own weight.
Love
Moderate
48
Astrological background
Venus Rx square Saturn · 9th house
Transiting Venus, retrograde at 24.66° Libra, sits in Lula’s ninth house of beliefs and foreign ties, while squaring his natal Saturn in Cancer at only 0.15°. Meanwhile, natal Mars at 25.04° Cancer squares Venus at 0.39°. The result is a close, demanding calculus between loyalty, duty, and desire—an invitation to put agreements into plain language and honor them even when costly.
Spirituality
High emphasis
72
Astrological background
Mercury Rx conjunct Sun/MC
Retrograde Mercury at 12.15° Scorpio crosses Lula’s ninth-house Sun with an orb of 8.31° and his tenth-house Midheaven with an orb of 4.30°. Lula’s natal Sun, Mercury, Midheaven, and Mean Lilith in Scorpio concentrate his sense of mission and destiny in the realm of law, education, and international vision. This is a week to re-enter the inner library of his own convictions, not to defend them.
Creativity
Moderate
45
Astrological background
Uranus in 5th + 9th-house retrogrades
With natal Uranus in Gemini in the fifth house of expression, Lula’s creativity is normally restless and inventive. This week, however, the retrograde pair in the ninth house favors editing over invention: old speeches, formulas, and symbolic gestures can be dusted off and made relevant again. The fire in the seventh house lends theatrical energy to direct dialogue, but the wise move is to reuse what already works.
Career
Moderate
58
Astrological background
Sun & Mercury Rx conjunct MC
The most precise career activator is the Sun at 12.21° Scorpio and retrograde Mercury at 12.15° Scorpio, both conjoining Lula’s Midheaven at 16.44° Scorpio with orbs of 4.24° and 4.30°. They also sit near his natal Mercury in the tenth house. Public statements, legal positions, and legacy messages are in revision; Lula may be reviewing what to say and when before the story is reissued.
Health
Moderate
55
Astrological background
Moon–Pluto opposition · 6th house
Lula’s natal Moon at 0.05° Leo in the sixth house connects to his daily labor and bodily rhythm; this week the Moon begins in Leo, activating that placement, then moves through Virgo and into Scorpio, eventually merging with the retrograde knot. The opposition between natal Moon and transiting Pluto at 3.16° Aquarius with an orb of 3.11° signals emotional pressure that can surface as fatigue if not met with rest and honest conversation. Daily routines are the anchor.
Social
High emphasis
71
Astrological background
Mars & Jupiter in 7th house
Mars at 20.43° Leo and Jupiter at 24.75° Leo both occupy Lula’s seventh house of allies, rivals, and formal partners, with Mars approaching his Descendant at 14.15° Leo. This is a bold but combustible social field: confrontations are opened, negotiations are enlarged, and Lula’s natural authority is amplified. The square from transiting Mars to his natal Mercury at 1.00° warns that a sharp phrase can do real damage; tact is an act of strength.

Transit

Mercury Retrograde Conjuncts Lula’s Sun and Midheaven

Retrograde Mercury at 12.15° Scorpio holds a conjunction to Lula’s natal Sun at 3.83° Scorpio and Midheaven at 16.44° Scorpio, with orbs of 8.31° and 4.30° respectively. This is the week’s fulcrum: public communication, legacy statements, and political doctrine are being re-edited from the inside. Any announcement made now should be treated as a draft, not a final word.

Transit

Venus Retrograde Square Natal Saturn: Loyalty Re-Costed

Retrograde Venus at 24.66° Libra squares Lula’s natal Saturn at 24.81° Cancer with an orb of 0.15°. This is an exact call to renegotiate the terms of commitment. Lula may feel pulled to preserve a partnership even when its price has risen; the retrograde asks him to state plainly what he can give and what he cannot.

A Retrograde Re-Founding

Lula’s sky this week is shaped by a rare double retrograde in the ninth and tenth domains. Mercury turned retrograde at 12.15° Scorpio, and Venus is retrograde at 24.66° Libra; both move through Lula’s ninth house, the axis of worldview, international relations, law, and ideology. With his natal Sun, Mercury, Midheaven, and Mean Lilith all gathered in Scorpio, Lula is being asked to return to the original blueprint of his public vocation rather than simply repeat it.

Retrograde Venus in Libra is the quieter half of this retrograde pair, yet it is doing the deeper work of evaluation. Venus asks Lula to inspect the balance of every alliance—domestic, diplomatic, and institutional—and to let the square to his natal Saturn clarify which loyalties are reciprocal and which have become burdens carried out of habit. This is not a week to make new promises but to audit the ones already made.

The Week in Days

Lula’s week is not measured in rising scores but in the quality of revisions. Finance at 42 reflects the Saturn–Neptune audit of his second house—resources are stable but under review. Love at 48 mirrors Venus’s square to Saturn, where loyalty must be re-costed and not inflated. Spirituality at 72, however, is the week’s crown: the retrograde knot in Scorpio gives Lula access to the deep ideological well from which his public life was first drawn. Career at 58 indicates that his legacy is being polished by the Midheaven conjunctions, while social at 71, despite Mars’s square, shows that his alliances remain his strongest currency—provided he chooses words like currency.

The Moon begins the week in Leo in Lula’s sixth house, moving through Virgo, Libra, and into Scorpio. The Leo Moon touches his natal Moon—daily routine becomes a reservoir of stability. By Wednesday the Virgo Moon squares his natal Uranus, urging him to update his workflow. By Friday, in Libra, the Moon glides past retrograde Venus and squares his natal Saturn, stirring the emotional records of his partnerships. By Sunday, as the Moon enters Scorpio, it merges with the retrograde knot, closing the week with a quiet, private sense of mission.
