Solar Eclipse in Aquarius/Lunar New Year of the Fire Horse/Saturn & Neptune Conjunction in Aries

Aries, symbolized by the Ram and a Fire sign

On Tuesday, February 17th, 2026, we had not only the Solar Eclipse and New Moon in Aquarius, but also the Lunar New Year of the Fire Dragon which made for some extremely powerful energy. It also happened to coincide with Mardi Gras and the start of Ramadan! With the Eclipse forming a Square to Uranus there was a lot of nervous and anxious energy in the air and I know I certainly felt it myself. People may have been feeling very restless and unable to sit still or get comfortable. The Solar Eclipse/New Moon was at 28° Aquarius and would have affected anyone with 27°, 28°, 29° Aquarius, Leo, Taurus, or Scorpio in their charts the most, but there would have also been an affect on people with those same degrees of Gemini or Libra in their chart as well! This wouldn't have been like a normal New Moon because Solar Eclipse energy is much more powerful and its effects radiate and linger for at least 6 months rather than one month like a regular Moon cycle. This Eclipse cycle is kicking off a new Eclipse cycle of the Aquarius-Leo axis that will be around until January 2028, so expect anything that begins now to be around until at least then. This will have far reaching impact. This Eclipse initiated fresh starts, new beginnings, and opportunities to initiate change that is far reaching in scope. It offers a portal to spiritual growth, alignment with self, authentic connection, self-discovery, and uncovering a higher purpose. This could also be connected to areas of relationships, self-growth, identity, and humanitarian pursuits.

On January 26th, 2026, Neptune moved from Pisces into Aries initiating the Era of the Warrior and Fighter and leaving beyond the Era of the Martyr and Victim. Neptune is the planet of dreams, illusions, deceptions, escapism, addictions, imagination, film, spirituality, and fog. Pisces is the sign ruled by Neptune. So, for the last 14 years, Neptune has been in Pisces where it has been comfortable creating this dreamy, illusory world where people had on their rose-colored glasses. The major release of the Epstein files was made public on January 30th, 2026, after Neptune had moved into Aries, when the rose-colored glasses had been removed. That's when the reality set in for most people. Aries is the Warrior, the Fighter, the Innovator. Aries takes no shit. So, the dreamy state that people have been living in for the last 14 years has come to an end and people are ready for War. And I don't mean that figuratively either considering we have 3 of the 4 Outer Planets in positions they were in during past US and foreign Wars. I am not trying to fearmonger, but I am trying to highlight the history and gravity of the situation we are in, because to ignore history is to repeat it. We have Pluto in Aquarius where it has been during the U.S. Revolutionary War and French Revolutionary War. Right after that moved into place, we had a certain Mario Bros. show up and do his thing because Pluto rules extremes, control, power, and Aquarius rules people, the collective, and revolution, so people were going to be taking their power back, and I called that one. I posted it on my TikTok (now deactivated) and Instagram accounts. He came in and made a way in healthcare reform discussion and united both sides of the political spectrum for awhile. As a chronically ill and disabled person, that was a breath of fresh air to hear not just disabled and chronically ill people talking about healthcare reform. Then, we have Neptune having moved back into Aries, where it was during The Civil War. That theme is incredibly strong and connected to ICE and what is happening now in the U.S. with "immigrants" and marginalized groups. I have immigrants in quotes because as a Mexican Indigenous person, we are not immigrants when we were here first and this land was stolen. End of story. If you don't agree with my politics, feel free to leave my website/social media! Now, we have Saturn (foundations, boundaries, restrictions, structure, government) which just moved back into Aries on February 13th. With this, again, we have the French Revolution, WWII and the Spanish Civil War, the Vietnam War, and in 1996 (the most recent transit of Saturn through Aries), the U.S. launched missiles against Iraq in Operation Desert Strike following Iraq's attack against Kurdistan and the Iraq disarmament crisis that ultimately led to the Iraq War in 2003. The last and final of the 4 Outer planets to move into their War positions is Uranus when it moves back into Gemini in on April 25th, 2026, where it was during the founding of this country, the Revolutionary War, and World War II.

These are definitely some unprecedented times we are living in. But as Neptune has moved in Aries and people are starting to awaken from delusions and become "woke" and sober up, both literally and figuratively, people will be ready for what is coming. Today, February 20th, 2026, is a good place for all of that to start. With Both Neptune in Aries and Saturn in Aries coming together in a rare conjunction, with the last conjunction of these two being in 1989, this is bringing both spirituality, dreams, and visions of the future (Neptune) some grounding, structure, and stability (Saturn) with the Fire of the Warrior, Fighter, and Innovator (Aries) behind it. This is an incredibly powerful call out to all those Spiritual Warriors and those wanting to align with the Right side of history and to get yourself correct now or forever be lost to the dark. Because this is a Spiritual and Literal War that we are all fighting. Which side are you going to be on?
