Sun square Uranus, Aquarius Solar Eclipse, Pisces Season, Saturn conjunct Neptune
There are weeks that gently move us forward. And there are weeks that rearrange the very architecture of who we believe ourselves to be.
This is the latter.
We stand within our first Eclipse of the year. We stand within a square that wants to liberate us from misidentified layers of self. We stand at the threshold of Pisces Season – dissolution before rebirth. And we stand within an alignment that has not taken place in centuries: Saturn meeting Neptune at the very beginning of the zodiac.
This is the kind of week that humbles the mind and awakens the soul. The kind of week that feels larger than personal narrative, yet deeply intimate in how it touches our becoming.
February 16, 2026: Sun square Uranus
A 90-degree angle forms in our skies. The Sun and Uranus spark. A square aspect between the Sun in Aquarius and Uranus in Taurus meets us this week on February 16, 2026.
The Sun in Astrology mirrors the Self – the deeper essence of becoming within us all. Jung spoke of individuation as the lifelong process of becoming who we truly are – this is the Sun. And ultimately, Uranus wants the same thing. Yet where the Sun illuminates, Uranus disrupts.
The Sun moves through Aquarius, holding awareness of the authentic self beyond conditioning. Uranus sits in its final moments of a seven-year chapter in Taurus, shaking loose our attachments to what feels materially secure, embodied, and known.
This square can feel like tension between comfort and freedom, yet always with a purpose. Between what stabilises the nervous system and what liberates the spirit. It may highlight where we have been identifying with structures, roles, or definitions that are no longer true.
Squares arrive to activate. Where are you ready to evolve without abandoning yourself in the process? Where can authenticity meet embodiment? Where can change happen gently enough that your system can integrate it?
It’s a day of conscious liberation.
February 17, 2026: New Moon Solar Eclipse in Aquarius
Our first Eclipse of the year. A New Moon held within the arms of the Lunar Nodes – astrological markers of evolutionary growth, karmic direction, and soul development.
Eclipses carry a spiritual texture. A sense that something larger is at play. That unseen hands are rearranging timelines and opening doors not previously visible.
This Aquarius Solar Eclipse is future-oriented, electric, sharp with possibility. It also marks the Lunar New Year, the beginning of the Year of the Fire Horse in Chinese Astrology, amplifying themes of movement, courage, independence, and creative propulsion.
Aquarius governs collective vision, liberation, innovation, and authentic individuality. This Eclipse does not whisper. It pulses. We may feel clarity around what we no longer wish to carry forward. We may feel the quiet knowing of what is calling our name – even if the path toward it is not yet visible.
Eclipses heighten intuition. They magnify what already lives within you. They illuminate truth. And this one asks:
What are you willing to release to make room for the future that is forming? What part of you is ready to step into authorship of your life?
There is empowerment here. The remembering that we know what is for us. This Eclipse liberates. It future-builds. It asks us to participate consciously in our becoming.

February 18, 2026: Pisces Season
After the electricity of the week the tide begins to soften and Pisces Season begins. From February 18 – March 20, 2026 the Sun is held in our final zodiac season before the Astrological New Year. A season that governs closure, surrender, forgiveness, and the dissolving of emotional armouring.
Where Aquarius Season asked us to envision the future, Pisces asks us to release the past.
As the Sun enters Pisces, we step into a season of flow. Boundaries may blur. Compassion expands. Intuition heightens. Dreams intensify. Music feels deeper. Emotions move more fluidly. Pisces reminds us that we are not separate from life, we are part of its currents. That control is often illusion. That grace can hold what strategy cannot.
This season invites:
- Forgiveness where resentment lingers.
- Rest where exhaustion hides.
- Art where logic has reached its limit.
- Faith where certainty dissolves.
February 20, 2026: Saturn conjunct Neptune
And then we arrive at something extraordinary, the Saturn-Neptune Conjunction. Saturn and Neptune meet at 0° Aries, the very beginning of the zodiac. The primordial spark. The cosmic ignition point.
Neptune has just entered Aries, beginning a new 14-year chapter and a new 165-year cycle. Saturn has just entered Aries, beginning its own 2.5-year chapter and 29-year cycle. And here they meet.
Saturn governs structure, responsibility, time, maturity. Neptune governs vision, faith, imagination, transcendence.
When they align, dreams seek form. Faith seeks embodiment. Vision seeks architecture. In Aries, the sign of initiation, identity, courage, and primal life force, this meeting becomes a cosmic reset.
We are witnessing the weaving of imagination with action. Of potential with responsibility. Of spirituality with embodiment. Collectively, this may mark a reshaping of how we understand leadership, authorship, and the creation of reality itself.
Individually, it asks: What dream are you willing to take responsibility for? What vision are you willing to build slowly, patiently, without certainty? What does courage look like when it is mature?
Rather than an impulsive side of Aries, this is disciplined initiation. Beginning without guarantees. Building without immediate reward. If you quiet yourself enough, you may feel it. A spark. A knowing. A door opening within you.
The creation of something new rarely happens in a single moment. It unfolds through devotion, choice, and embodied action over time. But this is a beginning.
