Pisces Season begins on February 18, 2026, as the Sun moves into the final sign of the zodiac, bringing us to the closing chapter of the astrological year.
Every Pisces Season carries the feeling of standing at the edge of something vast. The ground softens. The edges blur.
From Aquarius Season to Pisces Season – from the air to water and mind to heart. Welcome to a season where time itself can feel less linear, more symbolic, more dreamlike. A season carrying us until March 20, 2026.
Pisces Season 2026: Returning to the Waters of Imagination & Becoming
Pisces is the ocean of the zodiac. It is where identity dissolves back into belonging, where the individual returns to the collective field, where endings become inseparable from beginnings. If Aries is the first breath of life, Pisces is the exhale. It is surrender, release, forgiveness, and remembrance.
Each year from February 18 to March 20, this season invites us into a quieter form of intelligence. One that does not move through effort or control, rather through listening. Pisces teaches us how to trust what cannot be seen yet can be felt. It asks us to loosen our grip on certainty and allow meaning to emerge through intuition, imagination, and compassion.
Emotionally, Pisces Season can feel porous. Memories surface. Dreams become vivid. Old stories soften. Creativity flows more easily, yet so can fatigue – for there is deep recalibration taking place in our resting state. This is not typically a season for pushing forward through force. It is a season for integration, reflection, and reconnection with the flow of Life itself.
Final Season Before the Astrological New Year
Pisces is ruled by Neptune, the planet of transcendence, illusion, devotion, and oneness. Under this influence, we are reminded that life is not only built through action, but also through surrender. Not only through clarity, but also through mystery. Pisces Season offers medicine through art, music, prayer, water, stillness, and imagination. It invites us to reconnect with the subtle dimensions of existence that sustain meaning beneath the visible world.
Yet Pisces is not only dissolution. It is preparation. The final integration before the zodiac begins again in Aries. The composting of experience into wisdom. The quiet reorientation of the soul before a new cycle of becoming.
Pisces Season is where the past and future meet in the present moment, asking us to release what has completed its purpose so something new can be born.
This particular Pisces Season arrives with an especially potent sense of threshold.
Pisces Season 2026: Mercury Retrograde, Eclipse Season & More
For the first time in years, the Sun moves through Pisces without Saturn or Neptune present in the sign. Saturn has recently entered Aries, and Neptune has also crossed into Aries earlier this year, beginning entirely new cycles of manifestation and imagination.
Pisces now feels less like a place of heavy emotional processing and more like a loving and easeful clearing. A spaciousness. A gentle integration after years of deep inner work.
We are moving through the waters differently now. Not drowning in them, but learning to float.
At the same time, Pisces Season 2026 holds several powerful transits that weave together themes of closure, courage, and emergence.
Saturn Neptune Conjunction
Just two days after the Sun enters Pisces, Saturn and Neptune form an exact conjunction at 0 degrees Aries on February 20. While this conjunction takes place in Aries, its influence deeply shapes this Pisces Season. We are standing at the end of one cycle while simultaneously witnessing the birth of another. The archetype of dreaming and the archetype of building meet at the very beginning of the zodiac. Vision seeks form. Imagination seeks embodiment.
Pisces Season becomes the liminal space between what has dissolved and what is about to be created.
Mercury Retrograde in Pisces
On February 26, Mercury stations retrograde in Pisces, drawing attention inward. Mercury retrograde in Pisces does not operate through logic or linear thinking. It speaks through symbols, memories, intuition, and emotional undercurrents. Communication may feel slower or less precise, but insight can arrive in surprising ways. This is a time to listen beneath words. To revisit dreams, unfinished conversations, and creative ideas that have been quietly waiting.
Mars square Uranus
The following day, Mars in Aquarius forms a square to Uranus in Taurus, bringing a brief surge of tension or restlessness. This transit can feel electric, unpredictable, and activating. It may highlight where change is necessary but uncomfortable, particularly around stability, freedom, or future direction. Yet this friction can also catalyze innovation, reminding us that evolution often requires disruption.
Mercury conjunct Venus & Mars enters Pisces
By February 28, Mercury retrograde meets Venus in Pisces, blending reflection with tenderness. Old feelings, relationships, or creative longings may resurface. There is an invitation here to approach the past with compassion rather than judgment.
On March 2, Mars enters Pisces, shifting the way energy moves through the collective field. Mars in Pisces does not push directly forward. It moves through intuition, empathy, and imagination. Action becomes less about force and more about alignment. Motivation may feel quieter, but it can also become more meaningful. We are learning how to act from the heart rather than from urgency.
Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Virgo
The Virgo Lunar Eclipse on March 3 becomes one of the emotional turning points of the season. Virgo and Pisces together form the axis of healing, integration, and embodiment. Where Pisces dissolves, Virgo organizes. Where Pisces dreams, Virgo refines. This eclipse may illuminate the balance between surrender and responsibility, between spiritual trust and practical care. Something that has been quietly evolving beneath the surface may now reach a point of clarity or release.
Sun trine Jupiter, Venus in Aries conjunct Neptune & Saturn
On March 5, the Sun in Pisces forms a supportive trine to Jupiter in Cancer, offering a moment of emotional nourishment and reassurance. This is one of the softer currents of the season, reminding us that growth can feel safe, supportive, and held.
The following days bring significant movement through Aries. Venus enters Aries on March 6, then meets Neptune and Saturn on March 7 and March 8. These alignments connect love, imagination, and commitment in powerful ways. They ask us to consider what we are truly devoted to creating. What relationships, values, or desires are ready to become real.
Mercury Retrograde Cazimi, Jupiter Direct, Mercury conjunct Mars
Mercury retrograde reaches its cazimi with the Sun in Pisces on March 7, marking a moment of insight within the retrograde cycle. Something that once felt confusing may briefly become clear.
Jupiter stations direct in Cancer on March 11, restoring a sense of emotional forward movement. Growth that has been internal begins to externalize again, particularly around home, belonging, nourishment, and care.
On March 15, Mercury meets Mars in Pisces, blending thought and action through feeling and intuition. Words may carry emotional power. Creative ideas may begin to take shape.
New Moon in Pisces
Finally, Pisces Season closes with the Pisces New Moon on March 19. A quiet, reflective beginning before Aries Season arrives. This New Moon does not demand immediate action. Instead, it invites intention through feeling. What is ready to be dreamed into existence? What part of you is ready to be forgiven, released, or reborn?

Pisces Season 2026 feels like a threshold between worlds. Behind us, years of emotional restructuring. Ahead of us, new beginnings and cycles of courage, imagination, and creation in Aries.
