The world will change in immeasurable ways in 2026. What unfolds in the coming months will alter the course of history.
The start of this year has been intense - marked by events that have shaken our sense of safety and humanity. If you’re feeling unsettled or heartbroken, honor those emotions.
This is why grounding practices, real self-care, and connection with community matter so much right now.
We are moving through pivotal territory, and awareness is one of the most important tools you have.
The reason this matters now is that the energy begins to shift in a much bigger way toward the end of the month.
On January 26th, Neptune moves into Aries, where it will remain until March 23, 2039. The last time Neptune entered Aries was in 1861 - the American Civil War began two days later.
That historical echo matters.
Neptune in Aries is a wake-up call. This is the signature of the spiritual warrior.
You can’t just hope that things will improve, personally or collectively. You’re being asked to tap into your inner fire - to act with intention, courage, and conscience.
Saturn, the planet of structure, responsibility, and boundaries, has been traveling alongside Neptune since 2024, reshaping how we live, work, and relate to authority.
Saturn builds systems. Neptune dissolves them.
Together, we’ve watched structures that once seemed untouchable disappear almost overnight. We’ve seen borders blur - not just geographically, but in how and where people live, work, and belong.
On February 13th, Saturn enters Aries.
Then, on February 17th, we have a Ring of Fire eclipse, marking the official beginning of the Year of the Fire Horse.
Just days later, on February 20th, Saturn and Neptune meet at zero degrees Aries, the very beginning of the zodiac.
Pay attention to what’s happening now.
This is the opening chapter of changes that will unfold over the next twenty years, as the outer planets move into Fire and Air signs.
When Saturn meets Neptune in Aries, people in power often feel emboldened to use force. Aries is the sign of war, aggression, and domination.
This is a combustible year.
I’m not sharing this to scare you. I’m sharing it so you’re prepared.
As the world rearranges itself - sometimes in frightening ways - you are also waking up to your purpose, your passions, and your power.
This is not a year to stand on the sidelines, in your life or in the world.
You are here now for a reason.
Stay grounded. Stay connected. Listen to what stirs your heart. That’s where your direction lives.
