TLDR
Meghan Markle reshared an astrology video on Instagram that hints the “hardest seven years” of her life are ending, reflecting a bruising stretch of royal rupture, media scrutiny, and shaky post-palace deals.
There was no press release, no sit-down interview. Instead, Meghan Markle chose a blink-and-you-miss-it Instagram Story to suggest a major emotional chapter in her life may be closing.
The Duchess of Sussex, a Leo, reposted a clip from astrology account “Astrology is for Everyone” to her 4.5 million followers. The playful video shows two men dancing with joy, captioned, “Taurus, Leo, Scorpio & Aquarius ending the hardest seven years of their lives on April 25th.” Coming from a woman who has lived every misstep in public view, it read less like a meme and more like a declaration.
The account, run by influencers Harrison Keefe and Nepia Takuira-Mita, framed the post as the end of a difficult Uranus transit for those four signs. When Meghan amplified it, the astrologer behind the page celebrated, writing that “The Queen herself has been public proof of this transit… here’s to reigning again.” Royal titles aside, the language underscored how some fans still see Meghan as a figure fighting to reclaim her crown in the court of public opinion.
Meghan followed with a second Instagram Story that zeroed in on Leos. The text described people who are “about to exhale for the first time in seven years,” then added, “The tension between who you actually are and what the world around you was willing to see has been exhausting in a way that is hard to explain to people who have not lived it.” It continued, “Your confidence took hits it had no business taking. April 25th, the pressure lifts. You get the space to just exist without fighting for it.”
For Meghan, the timing is pointed. The last several years have carried her from her final stretch as a working royal through the couple’s early 2020 decision to step back from royal duties and relocate to California with their children under intense media glare.
Life outside the palace brought freedom, but also professional and reputational volatility. Their Spotify deal, widely reported as worth around $18 million, ended in 2023. Reports in 2026 signaled Meghan’s split from Netflix. Their quasi-royal-style visit to Australia in April 2026 drew criticism from some commentators who said they were treating the country “like an ATM.”
On that same Australia trip, Meghan spoke openly about the toll of public abuse while addressing students at Swinburne University of Technology about social media and mental health. “I can speak to that really personally, which is why I like to listen, because it rings true for me in a very real way,” she told the audience, before adding, “For now, ten years, every day for ten years, I have been bullied and attacked. And I was the most trolled person in the entire world. I’m still here.”
Prince Harry struck a parallel chord at the $1,000-a-head InterEdge Summit in Melbourne Park, where he said he never wanted to be a working royal because it “killed” his mother. He described feeling “lost, betrayed, or completely powerless” at different moments in his life.
Taken together, the couple’s comments and Meghan’s horoscope repost sketch a clear narrative. The past seven years are the crucible, defined by exit, backlash, and unfinished experiments in media and philanthropy. The next seven are framed as a release from pressure, a chance to exist without constantly justifying their choices.
Whether critics see the astrology posts as self-dramatizing or supporters read them as a small, hopeful crack of light, Meghan has done something she understands better than most. She has turned a private belief into a public signal about where she sees her story going next, inviting the world to watch what she does with her promised exhale.
Do you see Meghan’s horoscope reposts as a genuine turning point, a savvy PR move, or simply a relatable moment of hope after a long, difficult stretch?
