Opening the horoscope for the second half of 2026, astrologer Ratthakosin reveals insights. He points out Venus's move, taking the role of King of Fortune. Venus joins Jupiter at its peak position, creating a pair of wealth and luck stars from 10 June to 6 July. Check the rankings of the 12 ascendants with strong fortunes.
As the second half of 2026 officially begins, there is a significant shift in the astrological compass. Recently, renowned ancient astrologer Ratthakosin revealed a notable astrological event: Venus (6) transits into Cancer, taking the position of "King of Fortune," exerting influence for a full 27 days from 10 June 2026 to 6 July 2026.
This planetary transit is a crucial turning point for attracting wealth in the latter half of the year because Venus will align with Jupiter (5), currently at its peak position. This creates what Thai astrology calls a "pair of wealth and luck stars," often bringing good fortune in love and prosperity, summarized as “They love you without reason, and suddenly they lavish gifts.”
Astrologer Ratthakosin has ranked the strength of the fortunes of all 12 ascendants for the second half of the year, dividing them into three main groups.
Rank 1: Ascendant Cancer. Undoubtedly the luckiest to welcome the second half of the year, as Venus the King of Fortune and Jupiter at its peak transit directly over their ascendant. This doubles the strength of their fortune, bringing fame, wealth, intense charm, successful ventures turning into gold, favor from elders, and unexpected major luck.
Rank 2: Ascendant Gemini. Money flows into accounts easily. This golden moment for wealth gathering happens because Venus the King of Fortune moves directly into the financial house, making the second half of the year a period to accumulate income with new money-making opportunities pouring in, making saving difficult.
Rank 3: Ascendant Virgo. Unexpected windfalls and generosity from elders. Venus moves into the house of luck and success, so past investments will yield better-than-expected returns. There is a chance to receive luck through affection and kindness from benevolent elders.
Rank 4: Ascendant Scorpio. Fame brings wealth; international work shines. Venus moves into the house of growth and progress, benefiting work related to travel, international contacts, or online business, leading to great success with supporters backing every step.
Rank 5: Ascendant Aries. Receiving major assets; family brings luck. There is a chance to receive good news regarding real estate, houses, cars, or land long desired. The second half of the year may include joyful long-distance travel. Family brings fortune and well-being.
Rank 6: Ascendant Libra. Elders support big projects. You may be assigned significant projects that bring fame and wealth. Although the second half will be busy and exhausting, the rewards will surely be worthwhile.
Rank 7: Ascendant Taurus. Words bring wealth; successful negotiations. Venus, the ruling planet, takes the King of Fortune position in the house of communication, making conversations, coordination, trade, or closing important deals succeed easily due to charming and kind speech.
Rank 8: Ascendant Cancer. Outstanding money-making ideas; subordinates bring luck. It is a good time to start new businesses or creative projects. There is a chance to gain luck through gambling or from children and subordinates under your care who bring good fortune.
Rank 9: Ascendant Capricorn. Obstacles and fortune mixed; beware of carrying others' burdens. Loved ones or business partners will bring fortune and opportunities in the second half, but be careful not to take on others' problems, debts, or worries unnecessarily.
Rank 10: Ascendant Leo. Silent wealth; hidden income but beware of leaking funds. There is a chance to receive lump sums from inheritance, insurance, or unexpected income. However, caution is advised regarding generous spending habits during the second half, which may lead to financial leakage.
Rank 11: Ascendant Sagittarius. Recover old money but expect major repairs. There is a chance to receive sums related to losses or old debtors returning money. Still, be cautious about expenses for home or vehicle repairs or medical bills for family members.
Rank 12: Ascendant Aquarius. Work hard to get rich. You must put in effort and resolve issues at the start of the second half of the year. Wealth and luck will not come easily; you need to work hard or solve difficult problems first to successfully seize large fortunes.
Venus’s move into Cancer as King of Fortune, joining Jupiter at its peak, marks a major door-opening event for wealth at the start of the second half of 2026. Although luck levels and rankings vary among the 12 ascendants based on their charts, the key is to stay mindful in life and financial planning while following recommended merit-making to transform negative energy into positive and fully activate the "pair of wealth and luck stars" for success.
