Here are some top points to know about the February 2026 Astrology. See my February 2026 Horoscope Videos/Podcasts  for more details and also in the date specific notes towards the end of this written report:

**Scroll down around midway through this report to find Sweet and Salty dates!!

TOP FEBRUARY 2026 POINTS:

1. February continues the balance of sweet and salty aspects that we had in January, except this month, there are drastically fewer aspects! But the intensity of the FULL BLAZE of Eclipse season will make up for it! 

We only have a total of 13 aspects this month! That is among the lowest I have ever seen!

We also have a couple of other major aspects this month that will have powerful influence. I will go into these and more in the second half of the newsletter.

2. WE HAVE WIDE OPEN STARS until February 12 when the retrograde of Mercury shadow period starts! As of December 17, 2025 and until February 12, 2026, we have a beautiful open window free of personal planet retrogrades that will add robustness to the New Year and make it easier to launch into this year full of enthusiasm and discipline.

This month has many FANTASTIC ways to support big decisions and important steps forward! This is the best period of the whole year for momentum as the second half of the year will feature a Venus retro in addition to the usual Mercury retro flow.

The tides are FLOWING OUT for almost the first half of February and anything you put out there has a chance to expand far and wide. It is a great time for new births and new projects, and wonderful for bold new directions that require titanic energy to launch and sustain.

If you are looking to plan ahead for 2026, stay tuned in my Secret Star Portal as I have posted my 2026 Astrological Tides Planning calendar and the portal is the only place you will find that detailed planning report for the upcoming year.

3. The Eclipse Story:

Mid January will start Eclipse season again and you will feel the ramping up of life-changing trajectory shifts brewing and strengthening. FEBRUARY and MARCH are the Height of ECLIPSE SEASON

Stay up on the eclipse storylines in process, as a member of my Free VIP community, you have access to my Eclipse Resource Page. I have updated this page with the info for your sun, moon, and rising eclipse implications for this next set of eclipses.

A new eclipse cycle enters the scene and will run concurrently with the one already in process.

The February 17 Aquarius New Moon Solar Eclipse will launch us into a new flow of Leo/Aquarius eclipse storylines that will bubble up strongly every 6 months through early 2028 and be percolating in the backdrop in between flares. 

This Leo–Aquarius eclipse cycle awakens a bold reinvention: heart-led courage meets future-focused clarity. You’re shedding outdated roles, reclaiming creative authority, and stepping into relationships that reflect your true frequency. Expect electrifying upgrades, spotlight moments, and a reset that aligns your passion with your purpose—liberation woven with luminous new beginnings.

The Pisces/Virgo Eclipse cycle that has been in process since the latter part of 2024 and runs through the first part of 2027 has been dissolving what’s heavy and recalibrates what’s essential. Mystical insights meet practical upgrades as you release old patterns, refine daily rhythms, and anchor healthier boundaries. Expect spiritual clarity, restored vitality, and a gentle but powerful reordering that turns intuition into action and chaos into purposeful, soulful flow.

The Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse at 12° of Virgo on March 3 is the next activation of this cycle.

4. This month is ALL about two signs ~ Aquarius and Pisces.

The Sun will move through Aquarius from around January 21, 2026 through February 19. 

Mercury will travel through Capricorn from January 21 through February 7. 

Venus is there from January 18 through February 11. 

Mars will stay in Aquarius as of January 24 through March 3.

When the Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Mars move through Aquarius, life takes on a charged, future-focused rhythm. Breakthroughs accelerate, stale patterns crack open, and innovative solutions appear. Relationships shift toward authenticity, communication becomes crystalline, and bold ideas demand expression. Expect electrifying momentum, unconventional opportunities, and a liberating surge that realigns you with your truest individuality.

Social networks, friendships, groups, and teams come alive under this Aquarian surge. Online projects, digital collaborations, and social-media efforts ignite with fresh possibilities. Communities grow, visibility expands, and the right people gather around your message, amplifying your reach and accelerating quantum-level progress.

5. Pisces season deepens as the month progresses…

The Sun will be in Pisces from February 19 through March 20. 

Mercury will pass through Pisces AND RETROGRADE from 22° back to 8° from February 7 through April 16, with the actual retrograde between February 26 and March 20. 

Venus enters Pisces on February 11 and remains until March 7. 

When the Sun, Mercury, and Venus move through Pisces, life softens into intuition, compassion, and subtle but powerful inner shifts. Creativity blooms, emotional truths rise to the surface, and your dreams speak more clearly than logic. Synchronicities increase, old heaviness dissolves, and you’re guided toward inspired choices that restore faith, flow, and soulful alignment in every corner of life.

Mercury retrograde in Pisces deepens reflection, sharpening intuitive clarity while slowing external motion. Social networks, creative communities, spiritual groups, and online projects become fertile grounds for reconnection and reinvention. Inspiration returns, collaborations awaken, and your message gains a magnetically poetic quality that draws the right people into your orbit.

Here are some very notable dates to look out for as aspects occur on these days. The days may be staggered in different time zones and all of the aspects last longer than just the day they are on so look out for manifestations BEFORE and AFTER the aspect dates. 

Note, if a date is listed more than once for a sweet or salty, that is because there are MULTIPLE aspects that day!

SWEET ~ Wonderful boosts are more likely on or around these days: 2, 4, 11, 22, and 22.

SALTY ~ Drama or stress are more likely in the days around: 5, 5, 8, 12, 15-16, and 27.

WILD CARD ~ Could go either way! 20 and 28.

Notable Moon Dates:

February 1 ~  Full Moon in Leo at 13° 

A Full Moon in Leo invites you to celebrate your brilliance, showcase your gifts, and honor the parts of you that crave authentic self-expression. It’s a powerful moment for creative breakthroughs, courageous decisions, and heart-centered visibility. Use this illumination to release self-doubt and outdated roles. Be aware of ego flare-ups, drama triggers, or overextending your energy ~ staying grounded in calm will help your spotlight moment to become empowering rather than overwhelming.

Something magical you have created may see the light now!! And the stars are still open for the big pushes forward!

February 17 ~ New Moon SOLAR ECLIPSE at almost 29° of Aquarius! 

A New Moon Solar Eclipse in Aquarius delivers a rare surge of liberation, innovation, and timeline shifts. It opens portals to future-focused paths, new communities, and radically authentic versions of yourself. 

Old structures crack so breakthroughs can rush in. Use this eclipse to set intentions that honor your individuality, genius ideas, and humanitarian vision. Welcome sudden opportunities, intuitive downloads, and unconventional solutions. 

Stay flexible! Eclipses rearrange what’s out of alignment, but trust that what emerges supports long-term freedom, clarity, and quantum upgrades in your connections, creativity, and life direction.

You may find a group that you really resonate with or join a team where your creativity can support a shared vision. The power is in the community now!

ASPECTS TO BE EXTRA CAREFUL & AWAREFUL:

Salty Summary:

We only have 6 salty aspects this month! 

FOUR URANUS SQUARES!

These four squares to Uranus are the “crack-open” transits of the month. They shake loose rigidity, expose where life has become stale, and send sudden signals urging reinvention. Expect surprises, tech glitches, emotional jolts, creative breakthroughs, and abrupt shifts in plans.

Theme: liberation disguised as disruption

Best use: flexibility, openness to change, and willingness to follow the new direction life is revealing

TWO JUPITER INCONJUNCTS!

Inconjuncts with Jupiter create a subtle but important adjustment period. The potential for growth is high, but your approach may need recalibration. These aspects often highlight overextension, misplaced enthusiasm, or areas where you’re trying to expand too quickly without the right emotional or structural support.

Theme: refining your growth strategy

Best use: slowing down just enough to listen, adjust, and realign with what genuinely supports your wellbeing

Here are the dates (remember you will feel these BEFORE and AFTER these dates) and more about what you can do with these aspects:

February 5 — Mercury in Aquarius Square Uranus in Taurus

Expect: sudden insights, shocking news, mental breakthroughs, schedule changes, tech issues

Be careful of: speaking impulsively, reacting too fast, nervous tension

Best use: brainstorm freely, pivot quickly, and embrace disruptive insights that show a better way forward

February 5 — Sun in Aquarius Inconjunct Jupiter in Cancer

Expect: tension between independence and comfort, excitement mixed with emotional sensitivity

Be careful of: overpromising, taking on too much, ignoring intuitive nudges

Best use: refine aspirations so they support both freedom and emotional nourishment

February 6 — Venus in Aquarius Square Uranus in Taurus

Expect: relationship and/or money surprises (for better and worse), sudden attractions, shifts in preferences, financial volatility

Be careful of: rash spending or sudden decisions with high risk

Best use: refresh your style, upgrade creative or financial systems, and welcome connections that feel liberating

February 15–16 — Mars in Aquarius Inconjunct Jupiter in Cancer

Expect: strong motivation that needs direction; effort that doesn’t immediately yield results

Be careful of: pushing too hard or scattering energy

Best use: adjust your strategy, conserve strength, and take actions aligned with emotional sustainability

February 27 — Mars in Aquarius Square Uranus in Taurus

Expect: high-voltage energy, sudden conflict or breakthroughs, and a need for quick adjustments

Be careful of: rushing, burnout, accidents, or reacting sharply

Best use: break a limiting pattern, take a bold but conscious step, and channel intensity toward necessary change

STILL IN EFFECT…

December 21 exact but the influence continues all January! ~ Jupiter in Cancer Square Chiron in Aries. VERY long-lasting influence!

This long-lasting influence expands deep emotional healing. Jupiter in Cancer amplifies nurturing instincts, while Chiron in Aries exposes old wounds around independence, courage, and self-trust. Together, they can stir growing pains—moments where vulnerability and self-protection collide. Yet this is a profoundly restorative aspect for rewriting your story about worthiness and belonging. Healing happens through emotional generosity: allowing care in, offering it to others, and forgiving yourself for past defensiveness. The more you tend to your inner child, the more confident and whole you become. This transit supports lasting breakthroughs in self-compassion and empowered authenticity.

MY TOP FAVE ASPECTS OF FEBRUARY 2026:

Remember that you can experience the good vibes BEFORE and AFTER the dates listed as the web of influence extends beyond the day of exact connection. 

Sweet Summary:

We have so few aspects this month! 5 of them are awesome!

FOUR of THEM are Beautiful Aspects with Chiron!

These three sextiles to Chiron create a gentle but powerful healing corridor, helping you integrate old wounds with new wisdom. Each aspect acts like a doorway: perspective clears (Mercury), the heart softens (Venus), and your core essence strengthens (Sun). This sequence brings breakthroughs around confidence, identity, communication, and connection—without force, only through revelation. Expect subtle shifts that lead to meaningful empowerment and a renewed sense of inner permission to move forward. Mars completes the sequence by turning healing into momentum, helping you act on the insights, emotional shifts, and identity upgrades the earlier Chiron aspects awakened. You could see powerful solutions to health on any level from this aspect flow!

February 2 ~ Mercury in Aquarius Sextile Chiron in Aries

This aspect brings healing through clarity, conversation, and liberated thought. You may suddenly understand a pattern that once felt tangled, or find yourself able to speak about something previously difficult without emotional charge. Communication becomes a catalyst for breakthroughs—both internal and interpersonal. This is a wonderful day for writing, planning, initiating conversations, or resetting a storyline with honesty and innovation. Insights feel crisp, objective, and freeing, helping you rewrite the script in a way that honors your truth.

February 4 ~ Venus in Aquarius Sextile Chiron in Aries

This transit opens a soft, healing glow around relationships, self-worth, finances, and the experience of being seen. Old relational wounds may lose their grip, replaced by a refreshing sense of emotional independence and authenticity. You may attract connections that honor your individuality, or feel called to upgrade the way you value yourself. Financial or creative opportunities may surface, especially those tied to your unique gifts. This is a beautiful time to express affection differently, receive love without defensiveness, and let your natural magnetism rise.

February 11 ~ Sun in Aquarius Sextile Chiron in Aries

This sextile strengthens identity, confidence, and the courage to show up as your unedited self. You may feel a surge of empowerment that comes not from ego but from alignment with who you’re becoming. Life mirrors your growth back to you through recognition, synchronicities, or validating experiences. Leadership roles, visibility opportunities, or personal breakthroughs feel easier to step into now. This is a potent moment to claim a new chapter, initiate a brave choice, or shine in a way that once felt unsafe.

February 22 ~ Mars in Aquarius Sextile Chiron in Aries 

This transit energizes healing through action, courage, and liberated self-direction. You may suddenly feel brave enough to do something you’ve hesitated on, as Mars activates Chiron’s wisdom and turns past wounds into new strength. Efforts flow more easily, breakthroughs arrive through decisive movement, and confidence grows from taking aligned risks. This is a powerful moment to launch a bold idea, break free from stale dynamics, or assert a boundary that affirms your growth. Physical energy rises, clarity sharpens, and you gain access to a renewed sense of personal agency that feels both empowering and clean.

February 22 ~ Venus in Jupiter Trine Jupiter in Cancer

This is my favorite aspects! The expansion of Jupiter blesses love, money, and self-esteem!

This is the sweetest, most generous alignments of the month—an effortless flow of love, support, expansion, and heart-centered opportunity. Venus brings breakthroughs in connections, finances, creativity, or inspiration, while Jupiter amplifies emotional nourishment, synchronicities, and the feeling of being held by life. 

Relationships may deepen or blossom, resources may open, and a sense of hopeful possibility returns to areas that recently felt flat. 

Your inner happiness could receive an amazing boost now.

Family blessings may be abundant at this time. Notable home, family, ancestry, housing, real estate, and other home-based business news may roll in now!

****On of the most influential aspects this month that has been in effect at least since MAY of 2025, stayed close all of 2025, was exact in December 2025, and will continue to be in close proximity for ALL OF 2026:

Uranus in Taurus Sextile Neptune in Pisces ~ A Long-Term Portal of Change

This connection is still in effect EVEN when Uranus is in Gemini and Neptune is in Aries! They have been dancing together in harmony for a while and we have this glorious connection to look forward to for a while more. 

One of the most important background influences of this extended time is Uranus in Taurus making a supportive sextile to Neptune in Pisces. This is not a fleeting alignment—it was in effect for more than half of 2025 and is still very strong in February 2026, with effects, steadily shaping the undercurrents of our lives and the collective story. Because it lingers, it doesn’t always feel like a sudden event, but its influence is profound, expanding, and amplifying over time.

Uranus in Taurus pushes innovation in how we live, earn, and relate to the material world. It sparks breakthroughs in technology, sustainability, and resources, urging us to find new ways to anchor security in a rapidly shifting landscape. Meanwhile, Neptune in Pisces dissolves boundaries, heightening spiritual awareness, compassion, and imagination. It softens the edges of reality, allowing intuition and inspiration to guide us into uncharted territory.

When Uranus moves into Gemini and Neptune into Aries, the sextile continues but the dance changes tone. The focus shifts from grounding vision into form toward igniting ideas and pioneering action. Uranus in Gemini electrifies communication, learning, and connection, sparking breakthroughs in technology, media, and how we share truth. Neptune in Aries infuses spirituality with courage and urgency, calling for bold, inspired action. Together, they amplify visionary leadership, collective awakening, and innovative movements that rewrite cultural narratives. This next phase carries a faster, more fiery tempo—where inspiration demands expression, and ideas spark revolutions in real time.

When these two giants work in harmony through a sextile, fresh possibilities emerge at the intersection of the practical and the mystical. Dreams can take form in tangible ways; visions once only imagined may find grounding in reality. This aspect invites us to weave creativity into daily life, to allow spiritual ideals to influence material choices, and to channel innovation toward compassion and unity.

On a personal level, this rare connection offers a bridge between inspiration and innovation. You can use it by noticing where imagination is stirring and then grounding those insights into practical, sustainable steps. Meditate or journal to access Neptune’s visions, then let Uranus inspire creative solutions and fresh approaches. This is a chance to align spiritual ideals with daily choices, weaving intuition into action and steadily building a life infused with meaning and originality.

Because this influence spans a long time, the best use is steady, mindful engagement. Notice where your imagination is asking to be anchored and where practical changes can open space for soulful living. Collective shifts in art, healing, spirituality, and eco-conscious technologies are likely to accelerate under this influence. Individually, this is a time to embrace breakthroughs that feel both inspired and sustainable.

This long-term alignment is a reminder that lasting change doesn’t have to be forced. By opening to inspiration and grounding it in steady action, we can create lives—and a world—that reflect both vision and vitality.

MAJOR NEW ASPECT THIS MONTH 

MASSIVE RESET FOR HUMAN EXPERIENCE!

Saturn Conjunct Neptune at 0°of ARIES!! These outer planet titans move back into Aries to stay now and connect exactly as they do! This energy will be VERY strong all month and be exact February 20! 

While Saturn and Neptune become conjunct around every 36 years, they haven’t been conjunct at 0° of Aries - The degree of individuation from the cosmic soup, the FIRST degree of the Zodiac wheel ~ for an incredibly long time!

I will be posting a special video/podcast on this aspect which is happening for the first time in over 5000 years! We don’t have easy access to an ephemeris that goes back that far so I can’t confirm this but it has been a LONG time!

Saturn conjunct Neptune at 0° of Aries marks one of the most potent reset points of our lifetime—a rare fusion of structure and spirit occurring at the very first degree of the zodiac. This alignment initiates a new 36-year Saturn–Neptune cycle and activates the Aries Point: the cosmic ignition switch where personal identity meets collective destiny. 

Saturn provides form, discipline, and tangible manifestation, while Neptune opens the veil, dissolves limits, and awakens intuition, compassion, and imagination. Together, they create a bridge between the dream and the deed.

This transit calls us to turn visions into reality, not by force but through aligned action that arises from deep spiritual truth. It’s the moment where inspiration insists on embodiment. Old illusions fall away, false identities dissolve, and long-held dreams suddenly find the scaffolding they need to materialize. The clarity may come gradually or in a wave, but once it arrives, it feels undeniable.

You may feel a pull toward reinvention, purpose, service, creativity, or healing—anything that reflects your soul’s next evolution. Aries energy demands courage, asking you to step forward even if the path isn’t fully revealed. With Neptune involved, the guidance comes through intuition, synchronicity, symbols, and subtle knowing. With Saturn involved, the universe tests your commitment by offering step-by-step building blocks.

The best use of this transit is to choose a dream that genuinely matters and begin laying foundations for it, even in small ways. Release the identities, habits, or fears that tether you to the past. Honor your inner calling with practical devotion. This is the birth of a new era—externally and internally—where the mystical becomes actionable and your purpose takes on unmistakable form.
