Why February 20th, 2026, Matters
On February 20th, 2026, we find Saturn and Neptune in conjunction in Aries. This is historic and rare.
In this feature, I will look at the world, your solar chart, your natal chart, and the Tarot.
Richard Nolle has carefully listed all Saturn-Neptune conjunctions in recorded history on his excellent website.

About Aries
Aries is the first sign of the zodiac and rules the First House. Aries is about coming first in competitions, conflicts, battles and wars.
Aries is ruled by Mars the Roman god of war. Perhaps the constellation was remembered as a ram by astrologers who noticed that when the Sun stood in front of this collection of stars, aggressive boys and men were born, rather like a male sheep, technically known as Ovis aries.
We associate the battering ram with Aries; an ancient military machine. Rams in the field move in a dominance hierarchy. They threaten each other and also fight. Rumbling sounds are made by the ram when courting. A ‘rumble’ is a street fight among gangs.
About Saturn in Astrology
Saturn is an ancient symbol of what it feels like to be trapped, then released, then trapped again – then released for the last time. Saturn is the ringed planet and even looks trapped by its heavy circle of bands.
In the Roman mythology ,which gives us modern astrology, Saturn castrated his father Uranus because his mother Gaia asked him to put a stop to the constant entrapment of their children, by her husband. He released himself and all of them, but was then immediately trapped by karma, the curse being his own children would also defeat him. He was released from this by Jupiter, his own son. Thus, the idea of entrapment, release, entrapment, release.
About Neptune in Astrology
Neptune is, of course, the sea. The ocean and all waterways, including rivers and waterfalls. Most of all it is associated with the Arctic, Indian, Atlantic and Southern Oceans. In astrology, synchronicity dictates that we drift and float on a Neptune transit.
By sign and house in your natal chart, Neptune shows where you inhabit an alternative reality.
Everybody born in your year has Neptune in the same sign and house so this is where you are all out of touch with the real world, taking a vacation from normality and a holiday from reality itself. Neptune is about a lack of boundaries.
Everything and everybody is everywhere, all the time. It rules Pisces the fish and the Twelfth House, which rules Christianity and its rivals – including quantum science, Tarot and therapy. The depths below the surface of the ocean (the invisible, unseen depths) is a neat metaphor for religion itself, or psychic ability. Powerful and real to those who can ‘see’ it.
The Conjunction
Conjunctions rarely deliver a world-shattering event. Instead, they mark a sea change in the way we all think and feel. This is the moment that Saturn lines up at 00 Aries 44 with Neptune at 00 Aries 44 in London. It takes place at 12:49 pm, so just before lunch. The chart is AstroGold.
The whole chart shows Vulcano at 4 Aquarius in a conjunction with Pluto at 4 Aquarius. Sure enough, this is about allies, groups, networks – worldwide. It’s about power and great willpower, held within a collective.
This seems likely to be military in nature, or religious in nature, which can also feed war. This applies no matter if it’s Protestants and Catholics in Northern Ireland during the 1970’s or any other ‘holy’ war.
The reason this is clear is the huge stellium in Pisces which rules Christianity and its historic rivals. It dominates this chart.
The importance of the collective gathering of people – all over the world – is shown by the Aquarius stellium. Likely contenders are NATO, the European Union, the United Nations and BRICS – Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa. What is interesting about this chart is the importance of women in the group. Feminists.
The Tarot
The Tarot comments that the Ace of Cups is the outcome of our February 20th, 2026, conjunction of Saturn and Neptune in Aries. This clearly shows the group. The lotus flowers floating on the surface of the water shows a nod to India here. Is this BRICS making its presence felt in a global trade war contest? This is being written on 29th August 2024 ahead of publication in 2025, so I’m looking a year or two into the future with the Tarot.
The lotus is also associated with China. The Tarot card here is chatting quite openly about China and India. The lotus is sacred to both Hinduism and Buddhism. In Christianity it is associated with the apostle Thomas and his mission to India.
There is no aggression in this card. No battle, nor war. However, there is a classic burst of Aries energy as the cup appears. Watch China, India and BRICS on February 20th, 2026 as this may develop into a strong trade war. Christianity is shown in the imagery of Pamela Colman Smith’s card too; this may also be a religious difference between all three super-beliefs.
St. Petersburg in Russia was actually founded on a Saturn-Neptune conjunction in Aries, year. This rings loud bells about BRICS and its collective force. I am also beginning to wonder about what is below the surface. Submarines? Is this about ocean borders as well? What can you see in the Ace of Cups?
The World
The Tarot is only showing us the very start of the Neptune and Saturn transit in Aries. From this moment of energetic announcements and beginnings, probably by India and/or China, we have the potential for military conflict. It’s fair to say that would be the Kremlin’s objective, given their long history of cold war against the West and outright military aggression in Ukraine.
What does history tell us? As you might expect, the Neptune-Saturn conjunctions in Aries through the centuries have shown us some important events.
The Recruiting Act of 1703 forced unemployed men into the army and navy in Britain. This is a classic case of a Saturn-Neptune conjunction in Aries.
The rigid, unyielding, inescapable entrapment of being a soldier or sailor – along with the escape from being unemployed. The departure for foreign shores, away from home. All in Aries, the sign of the soldier, sailor, pilot. Conscription may in fact be back in 2026 in some countries, on this Neptune-Saturn conjunction in Aries.
Fantasy, Imagination
Neptune’s reputation for fantasy, imagination and above all, mythology (people write their own script) might be expected to generate military mythologising in Aries.
On another Saturn-Neptune conjunction year, The Ako Incident in Japan saw 46 Samurai commit ritual suicide. (pictured, Wikipedia)
Wars happen all the time, so it’s not enough to say a Saturn-Neptune conjunction in Aries will kick off another war. In fact, the chief signal for global conflict is any slow-moving transit in Cancer, the sign of patriotism. Men and women die for their countries when that happens.
Unfortunately we do have Jupiter in Cancer in 2026. This does rather suggest the powerful identification with one’s roots (the lotus) and we’re likely to see a big signal here about Christian countries (the Holy Communion wafer on the Tarot card) and the lotus of the Indian Hindu religion. This isn’t really drum-beating but it is flag-waving. And yes, it’s dangerous.
Do You Have 0 Degree Factors?
Whatever you have, by sign and house, at zero degrees – will tell you the story.
Neptune and Saturn will come past, showing up as people, organisations or events which are partly about escaping from reality and partly about being trapped.
So, for example, if you have Bacchus at 0 Gemini in the Third House of internet and media, a company which is 50% on a holiday from normality and 50% ring-fenced by what cannot be escaped, may come along to commission a project.
Do You Have an Aries Stellium?
This is about the new technology which allows you to duplicate yourself online with a different sex (male or female), a different age (old or young) and a different language (French to English).
Welcome to the strange new world of internet avatars, which thanks to Artificial Intelligence will become a normal part of your online life by 2030. At the same time, because of all this online confusion about your name and face, there will be a very heavy global focus on government-controlled I.D.
We might also say that it’s the crackdown on your identity by politicians, which makes you want to escape, so you make a beeline for the new online spaces where you can present as just about anyone or anything. Even a ram.

Good morning Jessica and happy new year!
I was wondering if you could have a look at my chart? I am being offered a fantastic and totally out of the blue opportunity to move to Norway in the next 12 months- I should be thrilled, however I’m hesitant, probably because it is so unknown to me, but also because I’ve really settled into the area where I live, my children have finally settled and I feel like we finally have a routine that everyone likes. Especially as I went through a very messy breakup with their father in 2018. I don’t like to let people down, and I don’t want to feel like I’ve wasted an opportunity, but does this opportunity look to be a good one? or one best avoided for now?
Thank you for the feature, always fantastic
Thank you. You are a Virgo woman with large Sagittarius and Gemini stelliums. Sagittarius is foreigners and foreign countries; Gemini is local travel and neighbouring nationalities. I don’t know where you live but I suspect your sudden offer of a new life in Norway puts you in Europe rather than Australia, or in the United States, rather than Africa. That’s because Jupiter (opportunity) is in Gemini. If, however, Norway is far distant then you are going to find it very foreign indeed, as slowly but surely, Uranus in Gemini will oppose everything you have in Sagittarius, from July onwards, for years into the future. In fact it would be one test after another. So it really depends – does this feel like a short journey (Gemini) or an epic trek? If a short journey then luck is with you until June. And from July you would find Norway liberating along with the potential it offers for side trips.
Hi Jessica,
I have an Aries stellium, including Psyche at zero degrees. I’d be very interested in your thoughts on how this shows up in my chart. A wild ride for 2025 ahead of all of us it would seem. Thanks very much for your insights.
Love and light
Fishie
Psyche is a symbol of what lasts forever; she is in the Venus family of asteroids and shows immortality after suitable tests and trials. In Aries this is about your face and name, which will outlive you online. At 0 Aries, this is now being reshaped, as Pluto is sextile Psyche and later on, Saturn and Neptune will be in a conjunction with Psyche. This can be reputational or just your face on YouTube or on Google. Whatever you put out there, do remember it is forever.
Good day Jessica,
Re: Saturn and Neptune conjunction at 00Aries.
My 0 degree factors are as follows:
Mars in Cancer square Apollo in Libra
Cancer Ascendant/Capricorn Descendant
Please can you take a look and let me know what I need to know about this?
Thank you in advance
You’ll be offered the choice to adopt a second name and identity online. You will also have the choice to relaunch your face, shape, style, hair, wardrobe and so on, as the year goes on. (This depends on an exact birth time). If you are not sure, or you don’t have it, the principal story is about your house or apartment. Take your time deciding as Mars Retrograde in Cancer is with you, ongoing and one situation will go back and forth. Read the fine print if you are making your move before mid-year.
Dear Jessica, this blog sent chills down my spine – you have seen India, China, the Holy Communion wafer. I am converting to Catholicism this March. Being Hindu in today’s India, makes it too dangerous for the clergy and myself, so am taking a short trip to the US for the actual baptism this March.
I have no idea what my life will be like once I return – suffice to say that I feel a renewed energy in my unpaid, voluntary work. A lot of wonderful things relating to healthcare for the poor in rural areas are happening with the organisations I volunteer with. I would be thrilled if I could continue quietly to follow my faith and work for others. Do you see this happening or should I prepare for conflicts thanks to the right-wing politics in my country? Thank you!!
Thank you. Chills down the spine is confirmation that your spirit guide/s have drawn closer and are overshadowing you. I am sure you are used to that. They are interested in this issue! You have an exact Virgo-Pisces opposition and a huge Virgo stellium. This is common in the clergy. Pisces rules Christianity and its alternatives; Virgo rules service and duty. You are entering the historic transit of the nodes in Virgo and Pisces this January and will spend a year or two cycling through the need to serve (healthcare is Virgo) and the need to escape from reality through prayer and the spiritual side of life. My only comment is that your own health comes first. You cannot serve if you do not do your primary duty to your own wellbeing, both physical and mental. That is the priority. As for India, a very old system of male dominance is on the way out, over a 20 year period. She’ll be very conflicted over that, but Pluto in Aquarius is here.
Hi Jessica,
Happy New Year! I have Fortuna at 00 degrees Pisces and Proserpina at 2 degrees Aries and Hygeia at 2 degrees Aries.
Can you share what this might mean for me? Thanks in advance. Muffy
I’m beginning to wonder what Zuckerberg, Musk, Dorsey and the rest of them have in mind for the web this year, as so many people are reporting with Aries (image) factors. Pluto will aspect those for you along with Saturn and Neptune so if you want a new identity, it’s coming. You may find digital ID is a very new issue this year and also in 2026. Changes to your shape, face, hair and so on are also on offer if you want them. Relaunch time.
Great article, Jessica!! can you tell me how this will affect my chart?

Your Sun at 1 Aquarius in the Eleventh House is the immediate focus for Pluto at 1 Aquarius and the sextiles from Saturn at 1 Aries and Neptune at 1 Aries in 2025. You shine brightly when you supply a group with what it needs and stand out as a friend – even if it’s only as close as social media. You are well-known for playing your part with the most diverse circles and have been like that since childhood. This transforms, this year. The most powerful people or organisations or dominant situations, will ask you to go deeply into your feelings about societies, clubs, teams, bands and so on – and meet change, with change. If you push back it will be empowering. Quite new situations are coming which require time and space to adapt to in 2025. Go into any new group or new friendship carefully.
Dear Jessica,
I always enjoy your articles and find them incredibly insightful. This one, in particular, has left me wondering about Estonia. What could the Saturn-Neptune conjunction in Aries mean for our country, especially in the context of potential conflicts or challenges? (Modern Estonia’s “birth time” is August 20th, 1991, at 8:04 PM in Tallinn).
On a personal note, I’m curious if this alignment might suggest a significant change for me. Would it perhaps be wise to consider moving abroad?
Thank you for sharing your wisdom – I truly appreciate it!
Estonia is part of that EU pattern we are seeing where there is a push back against foreign immigration (Uranus in Gemini in opposition to the Sagittarius placements of millions) and a radical change in borders (Uranus in Gemini is a revolution with the neighbours). This begins in July 2025 and goes for years into the future, so you will see results past 2030. Only you can decide if you also want to emigrate, but you have a Sagittarius stellium in the Ninth House of international relocation, which will be steadily opposed by Uranus over a long period, so need to take your time deciding.
An interesting and thought provoking post Jessica. A lot to think about. 15 years ago whilst up in a spiritual retreat in New Zealand, I had 2 distinct visions of the future. Leadership in America – lotus woman rising from the mud to take her place in the pond. Kamala means lotus as well. And that the Catholic church would begin its descent into irrelevance mid 2029. And yes the lotus is revered in China and India. The significance of the card you drew is strong. The Ace of Cups. “seen and unseen hands” holding the cup, dove of peace pointed towards the lotus with the symbol of the cross ( Christianity or what is being crucified right now to be born again – around Easter of 2026.) a lot to unpack with this draw and the Saturn Neptune conjunction in Aries. The lunar year 2025 is the wood snake- shedding and transformation.
Thank you for highlighting this – it feels like humanity is on the cusp of something HUGE.
Wishing you and your team a wonderful 2025.
Thank you. You had a vision of a woman leading America, some 15 years ago. I agree, we are on the cusp of something huge. History and astrology agree; you don’t enter the Pluto in Aquarius cycle without something as groundbreaking as Christianity, or the rise of matriarchy, or the liberation of slaves. These are very, very early days but as I reply to you, Donald Trump is being sentenced. And another case against him is dangling.
Good morning Jessica,How is Saturn and Neptune likely to impact me in 26,I have Saturn and Diana and Proserpina in Aries,nothing at 0 but Chiron at 29 Pisces.Thank you
You are quite strongly Aries and so your forward-facing, upfront approach to situations where you must be in the front line, or front-and-centre is a big part of your personality and also what you do with your life. You are set to experience your Saturn Return in Aries and will need to deal with all kinds of walls and barriers, in place for 2-3 years, regarding how you look, how you are known (reputation) and even your name. A classic example would be taking on a position where ‘heavy is the head that wears the crown’ as you find yourself loaded with responsibility at the same time that you realise your photograph is out there where others can see you. Take your time getting into choices on your Saturn Return when it comes along. You do have choices about what kind of Saturn Return…
Thank you for your fantastic post. This should really be affecting me, as I have a stellium in Aries and I have North Node 0 deg Sag, South Node 0 deg Gemini, Juno 0 deg Cancer and Sun at 4 deg Cancer. My father is still working in the family business (he is close to 90) and there is a part of me that really hopes that he finally retires for both our sakes. While in the past we had a lot of power struggles, these have decreased significantly, yet he is still working almost full time. While I appreciate his insight and his experience, I want to (finally) fly free. Any insights?
Thank you. Your father is your Juno at 0 Cancer as you are heavily committed to him and/or the family by nature as Juno shows who or what you sign up for, classically tying you down, even as you gain from it. You will experience Saturn square Juno and Neptune square Juno so a new situation you find hard to square is coming along, in place by May 2025. At the same time there is karma with a brother, sister or cousin (South Node in Gemini) which is also hugely important. In fact the situation with/for a sibling or cousin undergoes a revolution later on when Uranus goes to 0 Gemini near July.
HI! jessica. ^^
wow~ i was amazed after reading what you wrote. february 20 is my birthday and i have Ceres at 0 degrees Aires. i’m really curious to see what will happen. could you give me some adivce?
Ceres at 0 Aries in your First House is about your physical appearance, wardrobe (or uniform), reputation, title and ‘front’ as presented in any situation where you must be upfront, or front-and-centre. Rather like a centre-forward in football. This is where you are gifted with quite natural power and control, but have to compromise over this on a regular basis, with other people, or the universe. The aspects to Ceres ahead (Saturn at 0 Aries in a conjunction, Neptune at 0 Aries in a conjunction) suggest an escape from the real world, perhaps taking on a second identity online, but also a necessary waiting game and set of restrictions. Another possibility is slipping away from the real you by using particular contact lenses or a persona which is a total departure. A false name is another. Take your time with all you decide as it will be quite a heavily gated situation for you.
Hi Jessica, thank you for another fascinating article.
I have the North Node at 0 Aries, Chiron at 1 Aries and the IC at 2 Aries. Please may I ask the following:
(1) I am thinking of changing may name because I don’t particularly like it, didn’t choose it myself, and I also want to put the past behind me. In terms of timing I wonder whether to just do this now or wait for the 2026 zero degree conjunction.
(2) In early 2023 (around when Saturn entered Pisces I think) I had a degenerative tear of the medial meniscus of my left knee and for the last couple of years haven’t really been able to walk much or travel. I wondered whether this was a Saturn (knees) and Neptune (degeneration) thing in the solar first house (body). So I am wondering whether these two planets in the same sign are bad news. I am currently in the process of nervously selling my current house and looking for a new one to buy. When Saturn and Neptune enter Aries, my solar 2nd house and natal 4th house, and under the influence of Chiron and my North Node, I am wondering whether that will mean a degeneration in finances or the house falling down or something happening in the family.
Thank you very much for your insights and all the best.
You are a classic case of ‘Have Aries factors, will relaunch’ and it will be towards the middle of the year. Ask the Tarot for specific timing. You are also overdue for relaunch having injured your knee. The First House, where you have your Aries factors, is about head to foot appearances. You may have gained weight from not exercising; if so there is a way for that to come off. I’m not sure why you are so anxious about real estate. You have terrific cycles this year for selling and buying. The Tarot can, again, personalise this for you.
Thank you dearly Jessica !!
I had another question /comment and I messaged you directly on Substack 🙂
Thank you. We are now in discussion on Substack.
Hi Jessica,
Hoping you can look at my chart to give some insight. A tough start to the year for me with a dying parent, nasty battles with siblings and really dire finances. When will it get better?
As a Sun Libra you are over the worst with your family even though it may not quite feel like it, emotionally, just yet. In fact if you step back and look at the bigger picture you will realise you now have power to do things differently. What happened in November, December was the way out or through, if you accepted the opportunity. In January you move out of the past and into the future, when game-playing, politics and players/manipulators on all levels are history. Why? Because you have alternatives. The financial uncertainty ends in July.
Happy New Year, Jessica!
I’m a Cancef woman with an Aries stellium. The last two years was so difficult to me. Lots of structural problems with my rented home and therefore with my landlord. My boyfriend was dead unexpectally and I was completely lost with all this to deal. I just want to know if little by little my peace of mind returned.
Many thanks in advance.
You have been through a lot. I am very sorry you lost your boyfriend so suddenly. You are a Sun Cancer woman with stelliums in Cancer, Virgo, Aries. Even if you still have no real progress with your landlord or home in early 2025, from June 2025 until June 2026 there will be rare solutions and big opportunities with real-estate, a house, apartment, household and/or family. This may be your boyfriend in spirit helping you. 2025 and 2026 are also about collecting good karma from work or study, volunteering or part-time work, 18-19 years ago. If you gave, you will receive. It will be quite obvious that the universe is trying to repay you, if so. You will relaunch your look, title, brand, reputation, name and face in the second half of 2025, through 2026, 2027 if you take what is on offer.
Informative and thought provoking insights as always, thank you Jessica.
Would you be kind enough to advise how I am likely to be affected by the Saturn-Neptune conjunction in Aries given I have a stellium in Aries, in particular Diana at 0 Aries as well as Mercury at 1 Sagittarius, Bacchus at 4 Aquarius and Mars at 3 Aquarius please?
Merci d’avance.

You could easily have a new name and photograph/YouTube presence once the transits begin properly mid 2025 and by 2026, 2027 have a different title, christian name and surname, face, shape and style. This may be in the real world or purely online as there will be new technology allowing you to become somebody else. You will find it liberating (Diana wants to be free) and as this picks up Mercury soon afterwards, it suggests foreigners and foreign countries are involved. The transits then pick up the group, and your social life, friends and social media and with Pluto also in Aquarius by 2026 they have transformed your life.
Hello Jessica and happy new year!
I have an Aries stellium, and I am in the process of negotiating a new position that will start in mid 2026. This is an outward looking leadership position with a lot of social interaction as the public face of a group. It also includes local relocation – company housing- and other perks. I am pursuing this for financial reasons as I am the sole provider for my children, but also as a way to prove my leadership skills and climb up the ladder in the long term. I am also constantly trying to protect and seal my children from the volatile behavior of their father – whom I cannot exclude from their lives till they turn 18, in 2026 – which has felt for all these years as a Saturnian prison for all of us, misery really.
Any insight would be wonderful.
With many thanks,
Chloe
I am sorry your children have a volatile father and you must wait until they are 18, in 2026, to see the end of the problems. What does your chart say, Chloe? You are a Sun Aries woman with Aries and Gemini stelliums. You will find the biggest and best solutions for your family from June 2025 to June 2026 so take the opportunities. Anything which reverses or stops in the first half of 2025 is not important long-term, either with the children, their father, or your other family members. From June sweeping answers come. You also need to look at your fighter instinct. It takes two to tango and even he is appalling, you have the kind of chart which is like Henry Cooper with gloves on, ready for anyone in the other corner. So own your anger if you can and own your inner boxer. It would be quite useful to find out how other people do it; Tibetan Buddhists are masters of handling conflict as we know. You are in a fantastic cycle for media, internet, education, publishing and academia and will have amazing opportunities through to June. This may come up in your career or through a side hustle or weekend hobby.
Hi Jessica,
I have a 0-degree SUN in Saggitarius and a 0-degree PSYCHE in Scorpio, and I am wondering what the story would be regarding finding a stable partner and building a family. Thank you
You are in the best cycle in 12 years to find a partner of any sort but get a wriggle on as it ends in June. After June, partners can turn up, but give you an unpredictable relationship with no guarantees (though a lot of freedom). You’ll settle all your questions about being a mother or stepmother, one way or the other (yes, no or maybe) in 2025, 2026, 2027.
Hi Jessica, I read that you mentioned the end of the EU, at least in its current form. Considering Donald Trump’s latest statements about Greenland, among other things, and Musk’s talks with the German far-right party. Can you see if astrology tells you anything about the Nordic countries, Denmark, Sweden and particulary Greenland, and the relationship with the US and the rest of Europe, the borders, changes? I also think that Trump did not rule out military force against Greenland to take over the country. I think this is traditional Trump bullying first, to get focus and attention, scare before negotiations and that Greenland either becomes part of the US, or its own independent state with stronger ties to the US. Is there a possible military conflict in store there, or in Europe? Russia is also coming into play. Scary.
We are heading for Uranus in Gemini and the revolution with the neighbours, redrawing the world map, is coming too. We last saw this during the aftermath of the war. It is possible Donald is using an astrologer to help him with this quite radical policy. If so the astrologer is way off track with the timing! You also have to remember that Donald’s staff have a track record of using wow-factor headlines to distract people from the real story. He’s just been sentenced and is a convicted felon. If you are worried about war, remember that both wars needed long-term, historic transits in Cancer (nationalism, patriotism, family, town, country) to change the world. And we don’t have that. Not until Uranus goes into Cancer, anyway, and that’s from 2032.
Hi Jessica,
Thank you for the insights here. I’m wondering what could be at stake / what to look for with the Saturn-Neptune conjunction happening on my natal South Node (00*59 Aries)?
Thank you. The nodes come as a pair so your last past life was Aries-Libra (North Node 00 Libra 59) and you may have been in the armed forces dealing with an enemy who is back in your life now. You may also have been in the army, navy or air force and found your relationship or marriage was on the line. Parting in wartime is common. That person is again back in your life. So, these transits are going to remind you of familiar themes. You likely know the other person I am talking about, right now. He or she is at the heart of tremendous karma from the past and you will be able to settle up one more time.
Hi Jessica, I have been looking forward to returning to my home country for some time now. I wonder whether I’ll have the chance to move back soon? I’d greatly appreciate your insight. Thank you!!
With your IC at 7 and Juno at 16 Cancer and Jupiter headed for 7, 16 Cancer you will have a rare opportunity to go back to your home town and home country from July 2025. Luck’s in.
Hello Jessica,
I have Vesta at 01° Libra, Diana at 01° Aries, and the Moon at 04° Cancer. Could you please explain how the Neptune 00° – Saturn 00° conjunction on February 20, 2026, might affect me?
Thank you very much in advance for your response.
Your Cancer Moon is the most important factor here. You will go backwards and forwards with the household, family, house, apartment, home town and homeland until April 18th. Then, from June 2025 through June 2026 will find rare opportunities and solutions for the same. Eventually Saturn and Neptune at 4 Pisces will trine your Moon. You also have Jupiter going across your Moon. So make the people and place, which helps you feel at home the most, the absolute priority from mid 2025 and consider every big chance.
Happy New Year Jessica and thanks for this really informative article. Astrology really is coming into it’s own in these times bringing some sense to the nonsensical right now. I really feel that a new world is being birthed and we are at that pivotal point of no return but not yet out the canal and it is so intense. I have Jupiter at 0 degrees and a stellium in Aquarius and Leo. You advised some time ago I would be mentoring youths and also working in groups. This has come to fruition and I am now being given a leadership role and also the opportunity to work with victims of sexual abuse to help them heal and regain their power. I feel the Aquarian energy really ramping up. Could you advise on what the bigger picture is to me right now and what to be aware of. Also I am dating again after some very peculiar goings on…Uranus in Taurus zigging my zag perhaps. Is there any light on the horizon in my romantic life as work is incredible and full of opportunity but I would love some balance with the personal life getting some focus too. Thanks again
Thank you. As a Capricorn with an Aquarius and Leo stellium, the most important story of 2025 is about courtship, the bedroom, heirs, spares and pretenders to your throne. Expect reversals, delays and stop-start until June 17th, as Mars (action) goes backwards (retrograde) and also vanishes (action disappears) in your natal Fifth House. In your solar Fifth House, as you know, you have Uranus with all his sudden lightning bolts, radical changes, mini revolutions and rug-pulls. That stops on July 7th. So June-July is the gradual end of a complicated year for love and sex, but also with the world of children, teenagers and Millennials. This may include the survivors of sexual abuse you help, if they are in their teens or twenties. In 2025 Pluto in your natal Eleventh House of groups and friends brings power into the space. Powerful people and organisations may come to you through Substack, for example. You are about to discover just how Aquarian you actually are for 20 years into the future. October, November look like key months for that.
Hi Jessica
Happy New Year !!
I was wondering if you can look at my chart , I am out of job for last 6 months and still nothing coming along.
At the same time my husband company asking him to move to a new city and we may have to move in may June time frame, although we are well settled here
Thank you
YK
You are a Gemini woman with a Cancer and Virgo stellium so answers come from June 2025 to June 2026 with home and work, and your husband’s invitation fits. He may decide you need to go in which case you would find an improvement with the house, apartment, town, country and also opportunities for work, study, or a hybrid of paid work and voluntary work. So it’s mid year.
Hi Jessica, this is amazingly in line with what I am experiencing rt now! I currently reside in Melbourne Australia (citizen). There might be an opportunity for me to return back to my country of origin (India – does it make India a foreign country for me now?), job transfer.
This is a step-up role, if offered. I read, in some of the comments, that Uranus moving into Gemini will oppose my Sagittarius and make it hard working with foreign countries? I’m worried, if it is a right decision to move now!
Other stories in my life, my daughter (Scorpio – 14/Nov/2003) has one more year to complete her Bachelors so, my wife (Scorpio – 30/Oct/1977) will stay with her end of 2025.
And my son (Gemini – 29/May/2000) has completed his studies in computer networks and is looking for job since last year.
So many challenges at home that I am afraid it might impact my office assignments, which is very important at this stage of my career.
Could you please look at my chart and tell how this move will work if I take it and if there’s anything to watch out for.
Appreciate your guidance all through
Thanks,
CB.
If you are Indian then going home is a Cancer/Fourth House matter. Australia is a foreign country for you and is a Ninth House matter. You are going to move anyway, by 2026, thanks to your daughter and wife, who are in the relocation cycle. Going back to India means they can travel affordably in Asia which is foreign to them. So this ties in with their fortunate Jupiter Ninth House cycle which starts in June. Your son’s job issues will be over by May at the latest. Your own chart shows Saturn at 14 Cancer in the Fourth House of home town, homeland, house and apartment. Jupiter goes over that at 14 Cancer to fix a lot of issues with your people and your place, and the cycle also begins in June. You will have issues for years with foreigners and foreign countries after that (from your point of view as an Indian) but as half the world will be going through them with you, it seems to be something you will all handle together. I would expert passports, visas, borders and airlines to be the primary issue, and that starts when Uranus goes into Gemini from July 2025.
Happy New Year, Jessica!
As always, such an informative article. I have an Aries Stellium along with 0 degrees Mercury in Taurus and Proserpina in Libra and am interested in knowing how this conjunction will affect me. Appreciate your insight.
Thank you,
Nancy
Thank you. Nancy, the new technology on offer with your phone camera, computer camera or the nature of social media will sweep you up with a relaunch, perhaps using a second name or face, from the middle of 2025. You may even use a third identity. By 2026 you will be in a different world online with others using a wardrobe of identities.
Happy new year Jessica!
I have zero degree factors clicking into place and wonder if you have any guidance on where I should put my energy to make the most of the upcoming transits in 2025/2026? my parents in Asia are very frail and will soon lose their main source of emotional support when a deeply filial sibling emigrates. i support my parents financially and visit them 3 or 4 times a year, a source of contention in my own home. My 10 year old is not fitting in at school and we have little community for him. My spouse and I operate as single parents, I feel overwhelmed at work but paralysed about switching jobs or career.
Your guidance is much appreciated. Wishing you a very successful year ahead!
Thank you. Happy New Year. You are a Sun Sagittarius with an Aquarius stellium. The situation with your parents and sibling will ease in May when Saturn and Neptune are out of your family zone. This lines up with your natal chart. Jupiter goes into your family zone from June, bringing solutions and opportunities. This also helps with your own household. So May, June are months of answers, for whatever reason. Your child is the total focus from May and you will find a way to make life work for him, and with him. You will either leave your work, or your work may leave you, by July, and if not then, the following year. If you need more personal information please do give yourself a Tarot reading here.
Hi Jessica, thank you for another great article . Would you able to look at my chart and see how this affect me please? Also, I wanted to say I purchased your book Your Birthday and have found it amazingly accurate about everyone I know .. including my birthday ! Have really enjoyed the whole book thank you . Also, I just want to quickly ask you if you will be doing a feature on the nodes which changed recently please ? Thank you so much for all your guidance as always.
Thank you very much. The North Node in Pisces and South Node in Virgo forecast should be on the front page of this website, next.
Hi Jessica, so many major transits in 2025 and 2026, it’s going to be an interesting few years. Currently, my boss is sidelining me in many projects and I’m fairly certain he is planning to let me go. The tech job market is pretty tight here in the US and I’m very very concerned. Can you shed some light into what I can expect in this area in the next few months and as well as the conjunction next year.
This sounds like a Virgo issue and you are a Sun Leo with a stellium in Virgo in the Sixth House of duty, service, work ethic and daily routine. Any Leo will now face karma from 18-19 years ago regarding staff (say) or employers. If you did all the right things you will now be repaid in kind by a benevolent universe. If you owe, karmically, from that time you will have to settle up in kind. Only you know what you did, or did not, do. If you hired others, paid them generously, gave people opportunities to find work or study and so on – even if you are fired, you would be helped to find a superior alternative. I hope you can see how this works. The conjunction is about something quite different. That is about a new era with foreigners and a foreign country and it begins in May. You may have signs and clues already.
Hello Jessica, I am wondering if you may have any insights regarding the Los Angeles Fire catastrophe here in the states. It has been quite devastating and nonstop news here. Thank you in advance for any insights.
I am very sorry you are going through it. It is a massive tragedy. Here in Australia we know what it is like to have devastating bushfires (you call them wildfires; we call them bushfires) wipe out entire towns; whole stretches of wildlife and land. My first thought was my colleague and friend Kyra Oser who had a precognitive dream about the climate emergency some time ago. She wrote on her website that she had a dream about ‘Burning Bridges’ as a news headline, about wildfires. In fact, Variety reported Jeff Bridge’s home burned down. My take on the disaster in Los Angeles is similar to the take of others. Deliberately lit fires and/or deliberately sabotaged infrastructure. I looked at the astrology and pinned it to the final quarter of 2024, just before the election. My real concern is 2026 for Los Angeles. Not just because of wildfire and earthquake risk again, but because of her Pluto Return which suggests a massive shift in politics, administration, Hollywood – everything.
Hello Jessica
I happen to have Jupiter at 0 deg. in Scorpio. Any insights? Should I run and hide?
Thanks.
No, you gain from your partner or relative if you can do the work. You will need to put price tags on what is required. Classically Jupiter in Scorpio people get lucky with their girlfriends (who are rich enough to pay their salary) or the mothers of their children (who inherit and can fund their child’s private school). It can also happen through parents and family – an inheritance, say. This chart pattern is triggered several times in 2024. You will be offered an opportunity. It may be the keys to a second home. A new income.
Hi Jessica, thank you for your insightful article! I feel that the many major transits in 2025 and beyond will affect me deeply. Somehow when you mentioned ‘entrapment and release’ in your article, it resonated me the most but I’m unsure how to navigate it or achieve breakthroughs.
I’m a Sun Aries at 0 degrees with an Aries Stellium, and I also have several placements at 0 degrees (Mars at 00° Pisces, ASC at 00° Leo, DESC at 00° Aquarius, Ops at 00° Gemini, and Juno at 00° Sagittarius). Could you please have a look at my chart and give me some tips.
Thank you for your previous reply about my potential as a psychic or natural medium. I’ve always had strong intuition, and your insight made me reflect on my creative pursuits. For example, I can ‘feel’ or even ‘see’ I could do very well on YouTube, and while my channel has exceeded expectations despite inconsistent uploads, I struggle with filming content. I feel there is an energy block but don’t know what it is – I’m unsure if the issue is my niche—teaching professionally—or if I should focus on showing my fun, authentic personality instead. Or it is simply my own weakness of low productivity and being a perfectionist or it is due to the astrological cycle. This also ties into finances, as I feel blocked from scaling to the next level. I practice the astrology booking as you taught, I often draw cards that have the clouds and hands (I saw the card you drew and it reminded me I’ve drawn many cards with the clouds lol), I feel that I’ve missed many opportunities due to not being able to take enough actions.
On the personal side, a recent conflict with my sister-in-law has created some strain within the family. While I don’t feel ready to reconcile, this situation adds to my sense of being stuck.
Your guidance would mean so much!
Thank you. As a Sun Aries woman with Aries and Pisces stelliums, 2025 is about your First House of name, title, face, shape, style and brand. In both your solar and natal chart you have a simultaneous ending and beginning, valid for January (now) then April and May. Your 0 degree line-up clearly shows the bump. The end of the old image and the start of the new one. Uranus at 0 Gemini in July is also important. You’ve not experienced this kind of digital or media revolution before and it makes it easier, to rebrand the rebranding. If you feel stuck – not acting, not doing, just contemplating – you are doing your Pisces side and not your Aries side. Aries stellium women do best with physical activity; from walking, to swimming, to boxing, to fencing. You may be doing too much meditating and not enough hard exercise so are drifting, floating and cruising (Pisces) not pushing through (Aries). The sister-in-law issue will be resolved with very little effort by mid year.
Hi Jessica, thank-you again for such an interesting article.
Please forgive me for this question if I am asking something very obvious, or if I have already missed it in the above comments, I have tried to work it out, but can’t seem to. In your article where you have listed ‘how is your solar chart affected?’ – you have listed the houses, but the signs are going backwards – eg Aries, Pisces, Aquarius, etc. I have never seen them listed that way, is there a reason, and are the descriptions for the houses, the sign, or both? Again, sorry if there’s something very basic that I’m missing here. Thanks again! x
Thank you. Yes, the signs usually run Aries to Pisces, but I list them backwards because it’s easier when I am duplicating content. You will see the same house listings for a number of features I run on transits and sometimes it’s far more simple to switch signs, not the whole copy.
