February 2026 Astrology
As we move out of the Capricorn energy, the dedicated, business-focused stretch centered on structure, responsibility, and getting things done, there is a noticeable shift in pace. The pressure to push, perform, and stay productive begins to loosen, especially if the last few weeks have felt heavy or demanding. What once required discipline and endurance now asks for reassessment.
We transition into Aquarius and Pisces themes alongside an eclipse and Mercury retrograde, shifting attention away from constant output and toward reflection and recalibration. Aquarius pulls focus toward the bigger picture, including community, long-term goals, and how your choices affect others. Pisces brings increased emotion, creativity, intuition, and sensitivity, while also making clarity less immediate. Together, these energies slow things down enough to notice what feels sustainable, what feels misaligned, and what no longer needs to be carried forward.
Full Mon in Leo - February 1st
Full Moons bring culmination and release. In Leo, this marks an ending around identity, self-expression, visibility, and the need for recognition. Something connected to how you’ve been showing up, leading, or defining yourself reaches a point of clarity. This can look like outgrowing a role, a creative identity, or a version of yourself that required performance or external validation to maintain.
Leo highlights where pride, ego, or the desire to be seen has quietly shaped decisions. What’s ready to close is the need to center everything around personal approval or recognition. This Full Moon clears space by revealing where energy has been invested in maintaining an image rather than evolving forward.
That release is necessary preparation for the Aquarius New Moon and Solar Eclipse, which shifts focus away from the individual spotlight and toward collective direction, collaboration, and future-oriented change. Leo asks, “Who am I?” Aquarius follows with, “How does this serve what comes next?”
In good ol’ Leo fashion, this can be somewhat a dramatic, over the top
Feb 2–3 - Chiron in Aries sextile Mercury in Capricorn
This aspect supports integration and healing around identity, independence, and self-direction in a way that feels steady and workable. Chiron in Aries highlights where self-assertion, confidence, or initiative has been shaped by past experience, while Mercury in Capricorn emphasizes structured thinking, practical communication, and long-term planning. Conversations, decisions, and ideas benefit from being grounded in responsibility rather than impulse. This is a constructive window for addressing lingering mental patterns and clarifying how you want to move forward with intention.
Feb 4 - Uranus stations direct in Taurus
Uranus has been retrograde since late summer 2025, prompting internal reassessment around Taurus themes: stability, self-worth, resources, the body, comfort, and what feels reliable or sustainable.
Uranus has been moving through Taurus since 2018, a period that has consistently coincided with economic volatility and dramatic shifts in how value is created and maintained. This includes the rise and instability of crypto and other speculative markets, where some have experienced rapid gains while others have faced equally sudden losses. These extremes reflect Uranus in Taurus dismantling long-held assumptions about security, worth, and material stability.
As Uranus enters its final stretch in Taurus and stations direct, the emphasis shifts from internal adjustment to visible change. On an individual level, this can show up as restlessness with familiar comforts, changes in how you inhabit your body, shifting tolerance for risk, or the realization that what once felt secure now feels restrictive. What has been endured in the name of stability begins demanding reconfiguration… Not only financially, but in how you live, work, care for your body, and define self-worth beyond material measures.
Feb 4–5 -Chiron in Aries sextile Venus in Capricorn
This aspect extends the integration into relationships, values, and emotional exchange. Chiron in Aries brings awareness to wounds around desire, autonomy, and self-worth, while Venus in Capricorn emphasizes commitment, maturity, and long-term stability. This is a supportive window for reassessing what - and who - you invest in. Relationships may feel more grounded, making it easier to clarify expectations, strengthen bonds that are built to last, and let go of dynamics that require self-compromise to maintain.
Feb 5 - Mercury in Capricorn square Uranus in Taurus
The tone shifts noticeably here. Mercury in Capricorn prefers order, planning, and dependability, while Uranus in Taurus disrupts what feels fixed or “secure.” Conversations can take sudden turns, information may arrive unexpectedly, and assumptions about money, work, or stability can be challenged quickly. Mental agitation or urgency is possible, especially where there’s resistance to changing outdated plans. Flexibility is essential, particularly around decisions tied to finances, resources, and long-term security.
Feb 6 - Mercury enters Pisces
As Mercury moves into Pisces, communication and thought processes shift away from facts, logic, and directness and toward intuition, emotion, and symbolic understanding. Creativity begins to peak, and intuitive perception is heightened. At the same time, clarity can blur. Information is absorbed through feeling rather than analysis, making conversations more subjective, impressionable, and open to misinterpretation if boundaries aren’t clear.
Feb 8 - Venus in Capricorn square Uranus in Taurus
Venus square Uranus brings instability to themes of relationships, money, and commitment. Venus in Capricorn favors long-term investment, structure, and grounded choices, while Uranus in Taurus disrupts what feels fixed or “secure.” This tension can show up as sudden shifts in attraction, values, financial priorities, or relationship dynamics. What once felt dependable may now feel restrictive, while the urge for change clashes with the desire for stability.
Feb 10 - Venus enters Pisces
While Venus is not in her home sign, she loves and is elevating in beautiful, ethereal pisces. This energy softens the relational landscape and heightens romance, creativity, compassion, and emotional sensitivity. Love and connection feel more idealistic, imaginative, and emotionally immersive. Boundaries blur more easily here, which can deepen intimacy but also increase projection or idealization. This transit amplifies the desire for emotional resonance over practicality.
Lilith in Sagittarius square Mercury in Pisces
This square introduces friction between belief and perception. Lilith in Sagittarius pushes for truth, freedom, and the breaking of ideological or philosophical limitations, while Mercury in Pisces processes information intuitively rather than definitively. The result can be blunt or provocative statements landing in emotionally sensitive terrain. Beliefs, opinions, or truths may be expressed without filters, while others receive them through feeling rather than logic. This can create misunderstandings, emotional reactions, or tension between what is meant and what is heard. Especially around beliefs, morality, or personal truth.
Feb 11–12 - Chiron in Aries sextile Sun Aquarius and North Node conjunct Mercury
Old wounds can come up during this window, especially around confidence, self-trust, and the way you show up for yourself. You may notice familiar patterns of hesitation, defensiveness, or second-guessing surface in situations where you’re asked to act, decide, or speak on your own behalf. Because this is a supportive aspect to the Sun, the emphasis isn’t on reliving pain, but on recognizing it with more awareness. There’s enough emotional distance available to understand what’s being triggered without getting pulled back into it.
At the same time, growth is being pushed through communication. Conversations, thoughts, or realizations may feel uncomfortable or unfinished, especially as you try to put feelings into words. You may not have perfect language for what you’re experiencing, but avoiding it keeps you stuck. This moment asks you to engage anyway. Say the thing, ask the question, or name the truth even if it feels awkward or emotionally exposed. Awareness combined with expression becomes the turning point, helping you move forward with more clarity and self-direction.
Feb 14 - Saturn enters Aries
This marks the beginning of a new Saturn cycle focused on action, initiation, and personal responsibility. Aries is fast, instinctive, and forward-moving, while Saturn slows things down, adds weight, and introduces consequence. The result is friction but purposeful friction.
This energy brings themes of learning how to act with discipline, taking responsibility for choices, and developing maturity around independence and leadership. Impulsive moves are tested. Reckless action meets limits. At the same time, Saturn in Aries supports building real confidence through follow-through, endurance, and self-direction. It’s less about proving yourself quickly and more about learning how to sustain effort, take ownership of decisions, and grow into leadership over time.
Feb 15
Sun in Aquarius square Uranus in Taurus and Lilith in Sagittarius square Venus in Pisces
This day brings a noticeable sense of tension between clarity and comfort. With the Sun in Aquarius, there is a growing awareness of what no longer makes sense or aligns with where you are headed. Uranus in Taurus disrupts what feels familiar or secure, which can make change feel unsettling even when it feels necessary. You may feel restless, impatient, or resistant to routines, commitments, or situations that once felt stable but now feel limiting. Sudden realizations or shifts in perspective can make it harder to stay attached to the way things have been.
At the same time, Lilith in Sagittarius squaring Venus in Pisces brings friction between emotional idealism and the need for honesty. Venus in Pisces wants harmony, connection, and emotional closeness, while Lilith pushes uncomfortable truths to the surface. Feelings you have been softening, overlooking, or romanticizing may become harder to ignore. This can show up as questioning relationships, desires, or values, especially where you have been compromising yourself to keep the peace. The discomfort here is revealing. It highlights where honesty is needed in order for real alignment to exist.
Feb 16–17 -Mercury in Pisces trine Jupiter in Cancer RX
This aspect brings a sense of relief and perspective after the tension of the previous days. Conversations feel more supportive and understanding, making it easier to talk things through without escalating emotions. There is more room for empathy, reflection, and seeing the bigger picture rather than getting stuck in immediate reactions.
With Jupiter retrograde in Cancer, the expansion here is inward and reflective. Insights may come through memories, emotional awareness, or revisiting past conversations and decisions. This is a helpful window for reframing situations, reconnecting with what feels emotionally meaningful, and making choices that consider long-term wellbeing rather than short-term urgency or pressure.
Feb 17 - Annular Solar Eclipse in Aquarius
This Annular Solar Eclipse in Aquarius opens a new chapter around future direction, visibility, and how you engage with the world beyond your personal sphere. Solar eclipses act like accelerated New Moons. They initiate beginnings that unfold over time rather than landing all at once. What starts here may feel incomplete, uncertain, or still forming, but it carries momentum. This eclipse sets a longer arc in motion, shaping decisions, connections, and opportunities in the months ahead.
With the eclipse in Aquarius, the focus shifts toward the bigger picture. This energy is less about personal validation and more about alignment, contribution, and where you are investing your energy collectively. It highlights themes around community, audience, networks, technology, and long-term vision. You may feel called to step back and reassess where you belong, where you don’t, and how your individuality fits into something larger. The changes tied to this eclipse are not impulsive. They develop gradually, but they reorient direction in meaningful ways, especially around your role in groups, your future goals, and the systems you choose to participate in.
This eclipse is part of a larger eclipse cycle that will continue unfolding throughout the year. I’ll be going deeper into this eclipse season and what it’s activating inside a free masterclass. You don’t want to miss this, so sign up now!
Feb 18 - Venus conjunct North Node in Pisces and Sun enters Pisces
As the Sun enters Pisces, the overall energy softens and turns inward in a noticeable way. Pisces season brings heightened intuition, emotion, creativity, and spiritual sensitivity. Logic and urgency fade into the background, replaced by imagination, compassion, and a desire to feel rather than analyze. This is a time when people often feel more romantic, artistic, or emotionally open, with thinner boundaries and a stronger pull toward rest, reflection, and tuning into what’s happening beneath the surface.
With Venus conjunct the North Node in Pisces, relationships, values, beauty, and creative expression take on added weight and meaning. Connections formed or emphasized now can feel aligned, significant, or even destined, not because they promise permanence, but because they arrive at an emotionally resonant moment. This can show up as meeting someone who feels deeply familiar, deepening an existing bond, or gaining clarity around what kind of connection or creative path you are truly longing for. There is a strong pull toward compassion, forgiveness, and soulful connection, offering insight into where the heart is being guided next.
With this much Pisces energy, it’s easy to slip into fantasy, projection, or seeing only what you want to see. It can feel like swimming deep in an ethereal ocean where intuition is heightened but boundaries are blurred. This moment asks for gentle grounding alongside emotional openness, remembering that resonance does not always equal reality, and that clarity often comes after the tide settles.
Feb 20 - Saturn conjunct Neptune
This moment can feel like a wake-up call around what you’ve been believing, hoping for, or avoiding. Saturn brings reality, responsibility, and boundaries, while Neptune brings intuition, spirituality, compassion, and dreams. When they meet, it becomes harder to ignore where you’ve been running on hope alone without structure, discipline, or follow-through. Things that once felt inspiring may now feel confusing, draining, or unsustainable if they lack clear limits or commitment.
Because this conjunction happens at 0° Aries, the energy is raw and inexperienced. There’s a strong urge to start fresh or move forward quickly, but Saturn slows that impulse down. Frustration with delays, limitations, or feeling unprepared can surface. At the same time, this is an opportunity to mature around your desires and intentions by building stronger self-discipline and clearer boundaries. Inspiration is still present, but it now asks to be grounded.
This is not a one-day event. While February 20 marks the exact degree, this influence has already been unfolding and will continue operating in the background through March. The themes may surface quietly or indirectly, especially when other transits activate them, shaping priorities and expectations over time rather than all at once.
Feb 21–22 - Chiron in Aries sextile Mars in Aquarius with Venus trine Jupiter
Chiron sextile Mars supports taking action from a more aware place, rather than reacting out of old wounds, frustration, or defensiveness. This energy helps soften the urge to overcompensate or prove yourself, making it easier to move forward with confidence that feels grounded instead of forced. You may notice greater clarity around where to direct your energy and a stronger sense of motivation that comes from understanding yourself better rather than pushing through resistance.
At the same time, Venus trine Jupiter adds warmth, cooperation, and emotional openness. Relationships, creative efforts, and social interactions tend to feel more supportive and generous, creating space for mutual understanding and goodwill. There’s an ease to connection during this window, whether that shows up as feeling more appreciated, inspired, or simply at peace with where things are going. Together, these influences make it easier for progress to unfold naturally, allowing things to align without pressure or overexertion.
Feb 25 - Lilith in Sagitarrius square Sun in Pisces
This aspect can stir tension between emotional sensitivity and the need for truth. With the Sun in Pisces, there’s a desire to stay compassionate, understanding, and emotionally connected, even when things feel unclear. Lilith in Sagittarius, however, has little patience for avoidance or half-truths. It pushes for honesty, freedom of expression, and saying what’s actually on your mind. It can have a bit of an abrasive and blunt truth.
This can make it harder to maintain roles, beliefs, or dynamics that rely on keeping the peace at your own expense. Feelings you’ve been softening, rationalizing, or spiritually bypassing may surface more bluntly. You may feel pulled between wanting to protect emotions and needing to be real about what you believe, want, or no longer agree with. While this can feel uncomfortable, it highlights where emotional sensitivity has crossed into self-silencing, and where authenticity needs more room to exist.
Feb 26 Mercury stations retrograde in Pisces and Mars in Aquarius Square Uranus in Taurus
This is a volatile pivot point. Mercury stationing retrograde slows momentum and calls for reassessment of plans, conversations, and assumptions. Mars square Uranus heightens impulsivity and sudden disruption, while Lilith conjunct the Sun amplifies the urge for autonomy and truth. Together, these transits expose where action has outpaced clarity and where change can no longer be postponed.
Feb 27 North Node conjunct Sun
There’s a strong sense of forward as the North Node conjunct the Sun brings themes of identity, direction, and purpose into sharper focus. Something about who you are becoming feels activated, even if it isn’t fully defined yet. This can show up as a quiet knowing that you’re being nudged toward a new role, path, or way of showing up, without having all the details sorted out.
At the same time, there’s lingering instability around action and timing. Movement feels necessary, but rushing could create unnecessary disruption. The day favors conscious, intentional steps rather than reactive choices. Pay attention to what feels aligned versus what feels like an attempt to escape discomfort. What’s unfolding now is less about forcing momentum and more about recognizing where your energy naturally wants to go next.
Feb 28 Mercury RX conjunct Venus in Pisces
The last few days have highlighed areas of growth that may feel uncomfortable but necessary. Within that climate, Mercury retrograde in Pisces conjunct Venus in Pisces pulls attention to relationships, values, money, and communication.
Misunderstandings and mixed signals are more likely, as emotions color conversations and boundaries blur. It’s easy to assume understanding where none has been clearly stated, or to gloss over details in favor of how something feels. Old conversations or unresolved dynamics may resurface, and expectations that were never clearly articulated can come back into focus. This is a moment to slow down, ask clarifying questions, and notice where empathy needs to be paired with discernment before moving forward.
This overview reflects the general tone and themes unfolding collectively throughout the month. It’s meant to offer context for the broader atmosphere rather than predict individual outcomes. How these energies are experienced will vary widely depending on personal circumstances, timing, and individual charts.
