February 2026
Aries and Aries Rising
February is a powerful turning point for you, Aries, and it sets the tone for the rest of 2026. This month launches eclipse season and carries the energy of a universal Year One, making it a true reset point. Things may move quickly at times, but everything unfolding now is meant to realign you with what genuinely excites and motivates you.
The month opens with a Full Moon in Leo on February 1, activating your fifth house of creativity, romance, joy, and self-expression. This is a culmination point around something close to your heart—a creative project, romantic situation, or personal passion. Emotions may run high, especially as this full moon challenges planets in Aquarius, but the purpose here is clarity. Anything driven by ego, pride, or the need for validation is illuminated so you can release it. What remains is a more authentic expression of joy and confidence. This is a moment to celebrate progress while letting go of what no longer feels fun or fulfilling.
Early in the month, Mercury enters Pisces on February 6, followed by Venus on February 10, drawing your focus inward as both move through your twelfth house. This is a reflective, behind-the-scenes phase for you. You may find yourself craving solitude, rest, or quiet processing time. Conversations become more intuitive than logical, and emotions are felt deeply rather than spoken outright. This is an excellent time for healing, creative inspiration, and releasing old patterns—but not the best time to force decisions or demand immediate answers.
On February 12, Mercury conjuncts the North Node in Pisces, bringing an important realization, conversation, or piece of information that subtly redirects your path. Pay attention to what comes up around this time, it may feel quiet, but it carries long-term significance.
One of the biggest shifts of the month happens on February 14, when Saturn enters your sign, Aries. This marks the beginning of a new cycle of personal responsibility, maturity, and leadership. Over the coming years, you’ll be asked to take yourself and your goals seriously. For now, this entry point brings a strong sense of “it’s time.” You may feel ready to commit to something meaningful, set firmer boundaries, or step into a more defined role. This energy favors long-term growth over quick wins.
Midmonth brings the most pivotal moment: the New Moon Solar Eclipse in Aquarius on February 17, lighting up your eleventh house of friendships, networks, and future goals. This eclipse launches a new two and a half year cycle for you around community and collaboration. New alliances may form, old group dynamics may fall away, and your vision for the future begins to shift. This is a master reset around who you align with and where you’re headed. What starts now may not be fully clear yet, but it’s planting seeds that will shape your long-termpath.
The Sun enters Pisces on February 18, softening the pace and encouraging compassion—for yourself and others. On February 20, Saturn conjuncts Neptune at the very first degree of Aries, blending vision with realism. A dream you’ve held quietly may now feel ready to take form, but only if you’re willing to commit to it fully.
As the month winds down, Mercury stations retrograde on February 26 in Pisces, reminding you to slow down. Avoid making major purchases, signing contracts, or locking in irreversible decisions if you can. This retrograde is ideal for revisiting old ideas, conversations, or opportunities that stalled in the past. If something resurfaces now, it’s likely asking for revision rather than finalization.
The month closes with meaningful moments: the Sun conjuncts the North Node on February 27, reinforcing alignment with your purpose, and Mercury conjuncts Venus on February 28, bringing heartfelt conversations, forgiveness, or creative inspiration.
Overall, February is a bridge month for you, Aries; clearing away ego-driven patterns, initiating a new chapter of personal responsibility, and opening doors to future collaborations. Trust the process, move with intention, and allow clarity to unfold naturally.
