Royal Predictions Tease Major Shifts Coming For Prince William And Kate Middleton

Prince William and Kate Middleton may be preparing for one of their most meaningful years yet, at least according to celebrity astrologer Inbaal Honigman, who has taken a deep dive into the royal couple’s astrological compatibility and what the stars have in store for them in 2026. In a new reading, Honigman says the Prince and Princess of Wales are “polar opposites” in their birth charts, but far from being a challenge, she insists this makes them “karmically compatible” and gives them a “special compatibility.” The reading arrives on the heels of the couple’s November engagement anniversary, a date Honigman says sets the tone for a particularly “fortunate” year ahead.

Honigman explains that Kate and William’s Sun signs, Capricorn for Catherine and Cancer for William, sit directly across from each other in the zodiac, forming what astrologers call a polarity.

“As the anniversary of the official announcement of Catherine's engagement to William is on 16 November, the couple's year ahead holds great promise,” Honigman told Tarotoo, per a press release sent to The Blast. “Catherine is a focused and goal-oriented Capricorn, whereas William is a peaceful and family-minded Cancer, just like Diana. This makes them polar opposites… and they have a special compatibility.”

According to Honigman, signs opposite each other on the zodiac wheel are naturally balanced, complementary, and often drawn together by fate, hence her assertion that the couple is “karmically compatible.”

Honigman says that this upcoming year places Kate firmly in the driver’s seat. She points to the astrology of their November 16, 2025, engagement-anniversary date, noting that Mars, the planet of victory, will be in Capricorn, Catherine’s own sign. “It means that in all matters of discussions and negotiations, this year the Princess will be the winner,” Honigman said.

From important decisions to practical problem-solving, the astrologer recommends the Prince lean into his wife’s strengths. “If there are big meetings planned around planning permissions for their cottage, noise levels, or even scheduling parties, let Catherine do the talking," the celebrity astrologer said bluntly.

While Kate takes the lead in logistical and decision-heavy matters, Honigman says William will shine in the areas ruled by Jupiter, the planet of luck, expansion, and dreams, which will be in Cancer, his sign, on their anniversary. That means the future king’s wishes are star-blessed this year, especially in the areas he loves most.

“It's best to leave him in charge of game night at home,” Honigman advises lightheartedly. “Anything linked with travel or expansion, be it trips abroad, family breaks, or a new garden shed, they're William's dreams that will come true this year.”

These new predictions about William and Kate’s year ahead follow what has already been a whirlwind period for the Prince and Princess of Wales, one marked by tension, shifting family dynamics, and high-profile decisions.

Recently, the couple made headlines after reports claimed they are skipping King Charles’ annual Christmas lunch once again, a move described as a consequence of “nonstop disagreements.” The pair also allegedly missed the event last year, which insiders characterized at the time as a “coup.”

The back-to-back absences have fueled speculation about rising strain behind palace doors, making the newly released predictions about their dynamic and roles in the coming year all the more intriguing.

With Mars empowering Kate and Jupiter uplifting William, Honigman says the couple is heading into a highly favorable, balanced, and collaborative year. “This lovely representation of both star signs in the anniversary date sets the tone for a fortunate year ahead for the active royal couple,” she told Tarotoo.

From major decision-making to family plans and travel goals, Honigman predicts 2026 will be a year where both William and Kate step into their strengths, individually and together.
