What if being “right” is what’s keeping you stuck? On September 26, 2025, the heavens bring a powerful conjunction retrograde Uranus aligning with retrograde Neptune in Aries that invites all zodiac signs to let go of ego and move into compromise. It’s not about being right; it’s about being right for the relationship.
With Uranus causing sudden changes and Neptune in Aries increasing egocentric energy, the cosmic message is unmistakable: seek middle ground or drift apart. The astrology of the day combines innovation with compassion, calling on partners to reconsider rigid positions and become receptive to new solutions. Both single and coupled people are called upon to exchange “my way or the highway” with a deeper, more cooperative love.
Here’s how each sign can tap into this energy for love growth, using planetary wisdom to transform tension into transformation.

1. Aries: Lead With Humility
Neptune in Aries makes it easy to dig your heels in, convinced that your philosophy is the only reality. But with retrograde Uranus illuminating your communication zone, the breakthrough happens when you’re willing to say, “I may be wrong.” Taking mistakes in stride isn’t weakness it’s the bridge to regaining trust.
This is the time to listen without thinking ahead to your counterattack. As astrologer Kate Rose advises, be the first to acknowledge that you were wrong. That in itself can change the tone from defensive to bridge-building, creating room for collaborative solutions rather than an entrenched war.

2. Taurus: Escape the Victim Mindset
Aries energy is illuminating your unconscious, so that relationship struggles can feel impossible. Retrograde Uranus is encouraging you to wake up to what you deserve, but you won’t get there if you’re in “they’ll never understand me” mode.
Seek the silver lining even if you’re anticipating a breakup. As this influence of Uranus retrograde demonstrates, times that seem like endings tend to be the seeds of transformation. Opt to see potential where before you saw failure.

3. Gemini: Let Go of Responsibility for Others’ Growth
With Uranus in your sign, your brain is racing with fresh ideas. But Neptune in Aries makes your partner dug-in and resistant to change, which frustrates you. The reality? You can’t make someone grow up.
Rather, pay attention to who resonates with your soul and who doesn’t. As Neptune’s transit reminds us, truth comes from perceiving relationships for what they are not what you want them to be.

4. Cancer: Stop Fighting to Be Loved
It’s simple to assume that if you only work harder, you will finally receive the love you desire. But the universe is requesting that you take a step back. Retrograde Uranus in your self-reflection area and Neptune in Aries underscore the necessity of healing yourself versus needing to prove yourself.
Love does not have to be earned by wear and tear. Focus on taking care of yourself, knowing that the right person will appreciate you without requirement.

5. Leo: Share the Spotlight
Your growth stage requires you to forego making love so much about your own needs. Neptune in Aries is testing your self-centeredness, and Uranus is nudging you to reframe how you form partnerships.
Now is the moment for co-creating the future with your partner, merging visions rather than imposing individual agendas. The most enriched love stories are co-authored.

6. Virgo: Release Control
Retrograde Uranus is pushing you to watch rather than micromanage. The more you attempt to control things, the more they get away. Neptune in Aries makes this lesson even more emphatic, pushing you to have faith in the process.
Partnerships destined for you will not need constant steering. Get out of the way, breathe, and let love develop without your hand on the wheel.

7. Libra: Respect Separate Dreams
Your ideal romantic situation is always doing everything as a couple, but Neptune in Aries is reminding you to have independence in love. Retrograde Uranus is awakening change in joint funds and intense commitments.
When a dream is yours alone, and when compromise is truly an option. Sometimes the most loving decision is granting each other space to develop.

8. Scorpio: Embody Grace Over Control
With change-oriented houses triggered in both of you, you’re experiencing the tug-and-pull between rigidity and yielding. Uranus is calling you to take in possibilities; Neptune in Aries urges you to resist flexibility.
Trusting builds when you let your partner have their own timing. Grace, not control, will deepen your connection and shared future.

9. Sagittarius: Let Go of Old Ideals
Growth entails releasing old romance fantasies. Your partnership area is where retrograde Uranus and Neptune in Aries are asking you to review what really resonates with your expanding truth.
Whether it’s altering your position on marriage or acknowledging a “forever” love was really a learning experience, take the route that serves your growth. Anything else will feel off in the long term.
September 26’s astrology is not about who’s right it’s about proving that love can evolve. Retrograde Uranus and Neptune in Aries set the stage for ego conflicts perfectly, but also for empathetic understanding, compromise, and intimate connection. By embracing these lessons, every sign can transform cosmic tension into a force for long-term romantic development.
