February 2026
Starting on a Full Moon, followed midmonth by a Solar Eclipse
(New Moon) in Aquarius, this will be a time when the universe
lays down hints about necessary changes. Finding a better
balance in your lifestyle will be the priority early on and
thereafter the imperative is about communication and taking
problems one at a time to resolve in a steady progression. The
Aquarius Sun will be good in friendship circles, less helpful
where intimacy is demanded.
A sprinkling of Pisces will provide dreamy moments,
sympathetic gestures and a chance to let imagination roam
free. But they key change will be sensible, serious Saturn
moving into Aries for good on the 13 th to stay until early
- It joins Neptune there so there will be an uneasy mix of
Saturn’s down-to-earth, rigid energy with Neptune’s head-in-
the-clouds, unrealistic tendencies. At best it hopes to bring
improvements in society, can be creative though it can also
bring worries and neurosis.
The Solar Eclipse in final degree Aquarius on the 17 th will
bring heightened awareness of overdue changes but is not one
of the tricker eclipse series – more a hint to muddle through
and try to communicate clearly. The final ten days with the
Pisces Sun, Venus and Mercury but Mars still in Aquarius will
bring the same mix as earlier of up-in-the-head Air and
emotional, self-protective Water. With a hint of Fire from
Saturn Neptune in Aries. What is lacking is realistic,
practical Earth, apart from wayward Uranus in Taurus.
PLANETARY ASPECTS:
1: Full Moon in Leo – pulled in two directions.
5: Mercury in Aquarius square Uranus in Taurus -bright ideas,
outspoken.
6: Mercury into Pisces until mid April – compassionate, vague,
evasive, imaginative.
8: Venus in Aquarius square Uranus -romantic upsets, a drive
for freedom. Flirtatious.
10: Venus into Pisces until early March – romantic, daydreamy,
kind.
13: Saturn into Aries until early 2028 – forced-to-be-self-
reliant, not always sympathetic, though Neptune will help in
the first year or so to soften the harder edges.
15: Sun in Aquarius square Uranus – sudden surprises, not
cooperative, uncompromising, inspired ideas.
16: Mercury sextile Jupiter in Cancer – positive thinking,
upbeat chats.
17: Solar Eclipse (New Moon) in Aquarius -new beginnings with
a prompt to put changes in place.
18: Sun into Pisces for four weeks – self-protective,
visionary, spiritual, unrealistic.
20: Saturn conjunct Neptune in Aries – see above
22: Venus trine Jupiter -sociable, frivolous, indulgent.
27: Mars in Aquarius square Uranus – excitable, argumentative,
sudden changes, uncompromising.
Mercury conjunct Venus – sweet words.
OUTER PLANETS
Jupiter in Cancer from June 9 2025 until June 30 2026 –
focused on family and home, expansive, emotional, sympathetic,
easy going.
Saturn: In Pisces from March 8 2023 till May 25 2025; and
again September 1st 2025 to February 12 th 2026 – a time to let
the past go, push old regrets aside and be supportive to those
in need.
Saturn in Aries from May 25th 2025 till September 2025, and
again February 13 2026 till early 2028. There will be a need
for grit, self-reliance, initiative, patience and
resourcefulness. It can lead to selfish behaviour on the part
of some and a lack of cooperation since the tendency will be
to pursue an independent course. Though Neptune close by may
soften its effect bringing more sympathy for those in need.
Uranus: From March 2019 until July 2025 in Taurus – changing
attitudes to handling of money, possessions and resources
especially in agriculture and our attitude to nature. Into
Gemini from July 7 2025 to November 2025 – lively discussions,
new ideas, alternative approaches, fast-moving, outspoken.
There will be a retrograde back into Taurus from November 2025
to April 2026, after which it stays in Gemini until 2032.
Neptune in Aries from from late April 2025 till 2039 (with a
brief retrograde back into Pisces from late October to late
January 2026) can prompt individuals to submit themselves to a
bigger cause than themselves. In the past it has led to an
increase in individual rights and advances for disenfranchised
people. When back in Pisces it reprises the mood of the past
decade plus with conspiracy theories running rampant.
Pluto in Aquarius from late November 2024 till 2044. Can be
enlightening, fosters social movements and equality, changes
outlooks and attitudes, brings intense discussions and
scientific advances.
