The countdown continues this month . . .
Saturn is at the 29th degree of Pisces, the omega point in the zodiac and showing us the last remnants of our recent years. Saturn will reach Aries on Feb 13, then conjuncts Neptune on the zero degree mark on Feb 20. And 3 days prior, Venus rises in the evening sky and the Annular Solar Eclipse takes place

The word, "Justice" is one that will be a keyword for Saturn in Aries, joining Neptune in Aries already in progress. The illusions of our time are intended to dissolve with reality potentially making a comeback.

This opens up a new dynamic with Pluto going deeper in Aquarius this year (and for many years ahead) and the tech revolution's shadow emerging, while also supporting further developments on the leading edge of the mind, space and energy.

The rise of our voices and not just in backgroud noise is intended to be one of the focuses as well as Saturn enters Aries and pairing up with Neptune. We can inquire about our basic needs, rights and speaking up to what is truly important and critical for the future. And how do we integrate, work with or otherwise keep our humanity in a world with an acceleration of AI and robotics mimicking and forming their own "identity"? That is also where our voices are important.

As we approach the the dates of Feb 13, 17 and 20, there is a lot to take in. I recommend that we remember to breathe, spend more time with nature and the stars. Clarity, ideas and balance can come through those actions along with a sense of remembering we have a soul and it is much more than our ego when it comes to our indentity and role in the world.

Mercury in Pisces Feb 6, 2026
The Messenger planet Mercury ingresses into the sign of Pisces on Feb 6, 2026.

In the sign of Pisces, Mercury opens the heart and spirit to realms beyond the ego and duality. It is all about feeling and merging with the oneness of all for Pisces.

During this time period, Mercury’s transit through Pisces will be much longer that usual. Mercury will retrograde through this sign between Feb 25 to March 20, 2026.

This gives us opportunities to really tune into what we feel, explore healthy empathy and compassion for others around us and show our love for all. The last sign in the zodiac is meant to be transcendent of the trivial challenges we face and bring in the love for all of humanity and the cosmos.

Feb 11 – Mercury conj North Lunar Node at 09° 05’ Pisces
Feb 25 - Mercury retrogrades at 22° 33’ Pisces
Feb 27 – Mercury conjuncts Venus at 22° 15’ Pisces

Mercury will stay in the sign of Pisces until April 14, 2026, when it finally enters the sign of Aries, joining several other planets and the Sun in that sign.

Saturn-Neptune Conjunction arriving soon . . .
February is arguably the most impactful astrological month due to the combination of a Solar Eclipse Feb 17, the Saturn-Neptune conjunction on Feb 20 and a Mercury retrograde transit beginning Feb 25.

The beginning of the eclipse season is on Feb 11 and Saturn ingresses back into the sign of Aries on Feb 13. This follows Mercury ingressing into the sign of Pisces on Feb 6, where it will stay until April 14.

This combination of events is supportive of a very rare month to keep an eye on for events around the world. With Uranus also having just stationed direct, we could be looking at an increase and/or acceleration of the humanity's initiation toward a new future.

The Saturn-Neptune conjunction (Feb 20) anchors the year on its shoulders due to the rarity of the aspect. The world itself goes through a "shudder" of change whenever these 2 planets get together. In 1989, during the 2 planet's last conjunction period, the Berlin Wall fell and Eastern Europe had a political and social revolution, which precipitated the collapse of the Soviet Union. Before that, in 1952-53, we saw Stalin pass away, we experienced the heights of the Red Scare in the US (fading in 1954) and the nuclear arms race was taken to new levels with development of the Hydrogen Bomb.

This doesn't mean the exact day of the Saturn-Neptune conjunction brings about drama. This is a larger window of time that began in 2024 and ends in early 2027.

More to discuss, but this is worth sharing about more and more. We are in a time of "spirit into matter" where ideas/visions can drop into reality and a new spiritual alchemy emerges.

02/03/2026

We are in the midst of a critical period for humanity. This month contains a highly potent collection of connected astrological transits or initiations for the collective. It started with the powerful Full Moon in Leo and now Uranus is stationing direct.

Later, Saturn joins Neptune in Aries on Feb 13, our 1st Solar Eclipse of the year takes place on the 17th, the same day that Venus rises in the evening to visibility from the rays of the Sun.

Then the ultra-important Saturn-Neptune conjunction on the 20th, followed by Mercury stationing retrograde in Pisces (which is covering the territory of the transits in recent years of Neptune and Saturn in Pisces, further deepening our experience of what Saturn and Neptune have brought to our lives.

With all of that said, I invite anyone to share what process has been developing for you in 2026 as you learn and/or uncover your emerging role in the world (can be more than 1 or 2 things)?

Uranus Stations Direct Feb 3, 2026
The wild card planet with a Promethean expression, Uranus, stations direct on Feb 3, 2026, at 27°27’ Ta**us. This will be the last time it stations direct in the sign of Ta**us.

This station point in Ta**us is a powerful moment to begin to wrap up the issues that are expressed in the sign of Ta**us. Ta**us is about our relationship with comforts, conveniences, pleasures and especially with the Earth.

We’ve had multiple breakthroughs in making our lives easier and more comfortable, including on a financial level. But that has been becoming more unbalanced as the revolution has made fewer and fewer people more comfortable due to it funneling up to the top like foam. Uranus in Ta**us also shows us where we can develop a healthier relationship with material comforts and pleasures.

Any station point for Uranus can be a senstive spot for the world. At this time, it is important to simply have awareness of unusual/dramatic expressions and/or events to occur. It is also a good time to let go of things that are cluttering up one's life that may prevent us from feeling good in our bodies and our relationship with the Earth.

Uranus will then to slowly move in a "forward" direction toward the astrological sign of Gemini. Uranus will enter Gemini on April 25, 2026, promising a new era in combination with Neptune/Saturn in Aries and Pluto in Aquarius.

February 2026 is a BIG month! Here is a visual of the major astrological aspects, including the Saturn-Neptune conjunction, eclipse and Mercury retrograde in Pisces.

Full Moon on Feb 1, 2026
Our next Full Moon sparks with a radical radiance in the Crab Constellation. The Full Moon takes place at 13°03’ Leo on Feb 1, 2026 at 2:09 pm PST.

Leo can be a "Brilliant coach of a team or an activist leader shining light into the shadow so we may all see the light and reveal what is in the dark."

At times, Leo can help us SEE what was once "invisible" to us as it was hiding in the dark or shadow. The light can stir the shadow to life.

This can have an impact of dark forces interacting in broad daylight AND also for us to see what we need to integrate as part of our own personal and collective shadow.

A Leo Full Moon also draws in the energy and reflection of the archetype of Aquarius from the Sun.

The alchemical process of these 2 signs can be infinite in their potential. One way is to use active imagination to bring about the imagery of what a Leo-Aquarius expression is all about.

A healthy example is a visionary person who goes boldly into the future with innovative philosophy and can see objectively what humanity may need in order to bring about a more egalitarian track.

This person would not be afraid to shine a light into the shadow while also being at the leading edge of manifesting it into the world.

Mercury and Venus conjunction Jan 29, 2026
Mercury and Venus join together in conjunction on Jan 29, 2026 at 14° 57’ Aquarius.

Mercury is all about the mind, and in Aquarius it is about perceiving a worldview as free spirits and individuals utilizing their gifts to live their fullest potential without limits.

It is a strongly cerebral mental energy expression with a highly objective perspective. It tends toward seeing where things may breakthrough from the trappings of material boundaries/limits and psychically freeing themselves beyond what is known.

Venus in Aquarius taps into the archetype of the ethereal wizard-Athena wisdom-type that brings a future-oriented nature of the feminine to humanity.

It is in perceiving an objective outlook to where we are in the current age along with expanding humanity’s consciousness. How can we see ourselves without the emotional attachments? That in itself would present and incredible opportunity for all people to experience.

This combination is part of an ongoing stellium with the Sun, expanding the shamanic underworld nature within Aquarius. We can see both a strongly reactionary desire to set the world right and the shadow projected upon the world that may think their projection is what everybody wants. However, the reassertion of individual rights will continue to bubble to the surface more strongly than before.

Mars-Pluto Conjunction Jan 27, 2026
The last in a series of conjunctions of Pluto takes place on Jan 27, 2026 between Mars and Pluto at 03°34’ Aquarius.

Pluto symbolizes the shamanic underworld, organic transformative forces, pyrocathartic expressions, death/rebirth, surrender with bias and uncovering the secrets and treasures buried within the collective and our personal lives.

In the sign of Aquarius, it shows the extreme shadow of technological innovations, ideologies, objective reality, universal love and spiritual-consciousness expansions. It can also bring up collective apocalyptic disturbances, nightmares of the future and collapses of power.

The echoes of the first age of industrialization and the use of power/electricity is pushing through this current era. New use of power and energy will be a powerful backdrop of the Pluto in Aquarius era.

Mars helps round this with Aquarius to assist in getting into its physical expression and instincts along with pushing forward with the concept of “idea into action”. It is in honoring the quest to fulfill its mission to shift the world on its axis with breakthroughs and expansion of humanity’s collective consciousness.

Ultimately, this is a volitile conjunction that can be expressed through major turmoil. However, if responded to in a healthy way, this can lead to pro-active action in shepherding deep and necessary transformation within humanity's soul.
