Overview for this Month: Aquarius (All)
February 2026 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Aquarius:
February is very much about attending to your personal needs, dear Aquarius. Generally speaking, things are playing in your favor. With Mars in your sign all month, your independence and freedom are especially important to you. Your desire nature is very powerful, and while you may need to tone it down a little at times, if you use this period well, you’ll have all the courage necessary to make your dreams happen. The ball is very often in your court this month.
This can be a time of moving ahead with personal plans, becoming more active and involved, communicating, learning, and competitive undertakings. Mind you, you could feel that you’re often left to your own resources or especially independent, and this may or may not be welcome at this time in your life! However, certain people in your life seem to have your interests, agenda, and happiness in mind.
If you’ve been hesitant about starting a new project or plan of action, you’ll be ready this month to go forward. You are not only more assertive, energetic, and decisive, but you're also understanding the value of sometimes slowing down, and your personal presence is strong. Those of you taking courses or studying should be especially successful this month. Do watch for impatience and rebelliousness with planets in your sign squaring Uranus in spots this month. Disconnects with others can be part of the picture, particularly related to home or family life. Still, these interruptions have a way of pointing out new ways to do things you may not have seen otherwise.
Mars fires up your confidence and brings a more aggressive approach to your world, which could use some refining. Fortunately, Venus helps do just that while transiting your sign until the 10th, after which a more conscious effort is recommended for best results. Find ways to let your confidence and initiative work for you rather than against you.
The Full Moon on the 1st brings a whirlwind of emotion and activity with a close partner. It can mark a turning point for a key relationship. Just two days later, your planetary ruler, Uranus, turns direct after months of retrograde motion. Stalled or blocked endeavors, particularly around the home, can resume. It's another signal that you’re reawakening.
February is a brilliant month for learning new and exciting things. Your mind is often racing in the first two weeks. You are bolder than usual and motivated to pursue what you want and to prove your worth. There may be job offers or opportunities and significant bonuses or gifts this month.
The Solar Eclipse on the 17th is powerful. It occurs in your sign, and it can push you to leave something in your past in a big way so that you can begin anew. It helps pave the way for personal changes in the coming weeks, months — even years! It’s a time to reinvent yourself, such as with a new way of expressing and presenting yourself. Consider putting your best foot forward, as you are getting noticed and making a strong personal impression on others. You are braver and more adventurous, seeking out new experiences, and even if you aren’t consciously trying to find them, experiences will find you! Aim to get in touch with what you truly want.
While February is a month of opportunity, avoid trying to “do it all” too soon and too quickly. Instead, focus on one or two opportunities and projects. It should be a strong month for money matters. Emotionally, you’re definitely moving forward this month! On some level, this is a time for reinventing yourself. Your powers of attraction run very high, and people seem to notice your charm more than usual. After the Solar Eclipse in your sign on the 17th, you could feel a desire to update your appearance or change your presentation if you’ve been looking for a breath of fresh air. You might also envision what you’d like to make of the year ahead.
This eclipse acts as a powerful slate cleaner. Something new begins, and it can feel much like a new chapter in your life story. You are ready to kick bad habits, start fresh, and present a more self-assured “you” to the world. While there may be some discomfort, it's motivating you to start fresh. You’re getting several boosts, pushing you into the driver’s seat. This eclipse is the first in a set in the Leo/Aquarius signs, so it's new to you, but it will evolve until the final eclipse in the set occurs in January 2028.
With this eclipse set, you'll be discovering your independence, your relationship needs, and what makes you shine. It’s a time for turning points related to personality and partnership. A temporary feeling of invisibility can motivate you to change your approach to the world. There can be pleasant and sudden events or surprises as your life moves forward in significant ways.
As the month advances, you are entering into a brilliant period for increasing your earning power. You’ll be busy taking charge of your finances. Money-making opportunities are likely to present themselves, and the motivation to take advantage of them increases.
Your focus shifts further to practical affairs, especially from the 18th onward, and even with a Solar Eclipse in your sign just behind you, you strive for more predictability, comfort, and security in the last week of the month.
Keep in mind that Mercury is retrograde in your finances sector from the 26th forward, and it makes sense to look back before moving ahead with money matters. Still, you might discover new ways to improve your practical affairs, and you’re exceptionally resourceful with your time and energy. New ways of interacting with loved ones can yield surprisingly good results now.
Saturn changes signs this month, heading out of your sector of finances and resources and into your solar third house of communication. This ingress takes some of the pressure off in business, with money, and regarding practical affairs. You had a sneak peek of this last year, but now this influence is sticking with you and will run until April 2028.
During this new cycle, there can be increased daily responsibilities or commitments. Serious study, training, and detailed work are likely. Your ideas and studies may face tests to see whether or not they’re sound and worth your time. You’re learning the value of waiting for strategic moments to express yourself and choosing your words more carefully. Fortunately, it’s a stabilizing influence, as Saturn is now harmonizing with your sign and bolstering you.
Neptune recently began its transit of this area of your solar chart, and on February 20th, Saturn and Neptune meet there. Your thinking and ideas are both practical and imaginative. It’s a fine time for feeling needed or reinforced for your input, advice, intelligence, or ideas. You might help guide someone with constructive advice. Putting a dream in motion can be in the spotlight. You might also recognize that improved or streamlined communications can benefit you greatly. It’s an excellent time for developing skills that will help you now and in the future. Learning, studies, connecting, and communications projects can consume much of your time, but your efforts to discipline yourself can pay off.
It's a powerful month, particularly useful for starting anew, whether you're reinventing yourself or beginning a brand-new path towards greater personal fulfillment. A strong drive to take the driver’s seat in your life overcomes you, and you’re taking the necessary steps to get ahead. This is more about you personally than your professional life, which may take a back seat temporarily. Personal goals are in high focus.

Aquarius (Born January 21 to 30) and Aquarius Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Aquarius:
February 2026 Aquarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
February 2026
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until February 18th:
The Sun continues to move through your solar first house. You experience a renewal of energy and vitality now, and it's a strong time for increased personal confidence. The emphasis is on self-expression, what kind of impression you make on others, and beginning new personal projects.
You are a little more self-centered than usual, and this is quite natural and healthy as long as you don't take it too far. You are more decisive and forward-looking now, and you put more faith in your own abilities. Physically, you are likely feeling strong. This is an excellent cycle for making personal changes in your manner or appearance, and for any self-improvement endeavors. Personal projects that you begin now are likely to blossom nine months down the road.
From February 18th forward:
The Sun highlights your second house now, and your focus is on material affairs and comfort issues. Security is a driving force for you at the moment, and you might find that you are especially interested in accumulating possessions. What you have and what you don't have come into focus--what makes you feel comfortable, your sense of security, and what you value.
This is the time of year when personal finances and possessions receive maximum attention. Pour your energy into your work and your finances, and you might just be able to take your ideas to the bank.
Extravagance with your pocketbook is something you may want to look out for, however. If you find yourself itching to make unnecessary purchases, know that at the root of this urge is the desire to pamper and comfort yourself. Nothing wrong with it, but there are inexpensive (and even free) ways to make yourself feel good.
This is not the most eventful time of year for you. You are more inclined to dig in your heels and hang on to what makes you feel most secure than to take big risks.
Eclipses
A Solar Eclipse occurs on February 17th:
Because new information that could change our perspective can reveal itself after an eclipse, it's better to avoid major decision-making the week before and after this event. It's a time to observe and wait and see.
The Solar Eclipse marks a new beginning for you. Letting go of the past is necessary in order to move forward. This eclipse occurs in your solar first house, suggesting a new approach to your personal life, the manner in which you come across to others, and the way you assert yourself. A focus on ways to improve or enhance your presentation, appearance, or mannerisms may be part of the picture in the coming months, as well as a sense of renewal and reinvigoration regarding how you assert your needs and express yourself to others.
You have an increased awareness of your own needs during this phase. It's a very powerful time for you--a time to reinvent yourself in some personal way, such as with a new look or manner of expressing and presenting yourself.
This is a personally busy time of year when you feel energetic and enthusiastic. Think about how you present yourself to others, focus on changing personal habits in such a way as to improve your confidence in yourself, and concentrate on putting your best foot forward, as this is a time when you will get noticed and make a stronger impression on others.
However, factor in the importance of authenticity in your presentation. You do not have to, of course, reveal all of yourself to others, but it's vital to act on your impulses and believe in yourself. This is a time when you can be brave and enjoy new experiences.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until the 10th:
Venus continues to grace your solar first house now. Something about how you present yourself, your image, and your manner boosts your personal magnetism during this cycle. It's a good time to attract who and what you want into your life experience. You're more charming and you are likely to want to attract things to you indirectly rather than forcefully now, perhaps through charm and playfulness. You have a stronger need to be good to yourself, although a negative expression of this placement can be excessive attention to pampering oneself or taking the easy way out. You especially enjoy making a good impression on others, and peace-making. You might also be paying more attention to beauty and style now.
From the 10th forward:
Venus transits your solar second house and, as the natural ruler of the second house, Venus feels right "at home" here. This is a rather content position for Venus, although there can be some restlessness when it comes to money and spending it—you are more inclined to want more things around you! Financial security and enjoyment of the good things in life are important to you, although you also value simple pleasures. The ability to relate well with others might enhance your own personal finances during this period. You may find yourself in a position in which there is a blending of financial matters with social or public affairs. This is a stable position for love matters and close relationships. You value those who make you feel comfortable, and familiarity is more important to you than someone new during this cycle.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until the 6th:
Mercury continues to transit your solar first house. During this cycle, you are more communicative than usual. However, this doesn't necessarily mean that conversations are at their best right now, simply because you are more interested in expressing yourself than listening! You are especially alert and a little cerebral now. You have a receptive audience for your ideas.
From the 6th forward:
With Mercury in your solar second house, this is a strong period for analyzing your cash flow, income, and earning power. You are more practical and rational in your approach to finances during this period. With your conscious mind focused on money and possessions, as well as personal values, this can be a strong period for gathering new money-making ideas.
Alternatively, it could be a time when you tend to fret over your finances. Conversations tend to be practical rather than frivolous now. Financial gain may come through communications.
Mercury is retrograde from February 26th to March 20th:
All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of communications regarding intimate and financial matters, as well as communications with children or romantic partners, because Mercury rules these areas of your life. It's not a good time to file your taxes or apply for a loan. Instead, take the time to re-think your sources of income and how you spend your cash during this period, but put off finalizing anything for the time being. Speculation and gambling are not advised right now either.
Occurring in your solar second house this time, extra care should be exercised when it comes to new financial initiatives. There may be the need to revisit old, nagging issues regarding personal finances. Take this time to re-budget instead of making premature purchases. Hold off on major decision-making regarding money. Instead, take the time to re-think your sources of income and how you spend your cash during this period, but put off finalizing anything important for the time being. In fact, some money-making ideas or ventures may be put on hold due to circumstances beyond your control. This is an excellent period for review, however.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
All month:
Mars continues to activate your solar first house, supplying you with added energy to apply towards personal goals, and a more assertive and direct approach to the world in general.
This is an excellent period for physical training and exercise of any kind. The desire to be self-sufficient and independent is especially strong now. You are far less tolerant of being restricted by or dependent on others, and this is a good time to identify your personal strengths and take positive action to rectify situations that may have previously felt frustrating or repressive.
You might be especially attracted to personal challenges, and seeing just how far you can push. However, be careful not to push yourself (and others) too far.

Aquarius (Born January 31 to February 9) AND Aquarius Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Aquarius:
February 2026 Aquarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
February 2026
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
All month:
The Sun illuminates your first house now, bringing issues surrounding your personal identity, appearance, outward behavior, and self-expression to the forefront. This marks the peak of your physical solar cycle, and you are in the position to make an impression on others, and to assert your personal influence. Spontaneity of expression is what this transit is about. You are ready to put your past behind you and to start a new personal cycle. You have presence and you project confidence. Increased energy and a renewed feeling of confidence is with you now, so take advantage.
It's a great month to do something entirely new and pioneering—to go solo in some area of your life. This particular season of the year smiles on your personal endeavors. This is a time when you more easily get in touch with a true sense of your identity and purpose. The most enterprising side of your nature surfaces, and it's time to seize opportunities. Existing problems in your life may be overcome now by bravery and a straightforward approach to your life.
There's nothing wrong with a bit of self-centeredness during this cycle, but avoid taking it too far. It's not the best time for teamwork and other cooperative endeavors. The spotlight is on you and your ability to lead, so make it a good one! Take steps to improve how you come across to others. It's time to carve your own path in life.

Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until the 4th:
Mars continues to energize your solar twelfth house now. While Mars occupies the twelfth house, asserting yourself in a direct and straightforward manner can be difficult. This is largely due to a feeling of not being in touch with what it is you want or desire just for the time being as you reassess your goals and needs.
This lack of direction and self-knowledge should prompt you to look within to learn about your desires. It is likely that you will be much clearer when Mars reaches your first house. For the time being, take some time for rest and give your ego a break.
From February 5th onward:
You are able to stand your ground and assert yourself more than usual during this transit of Mars through your solar first house. You have energy at your disposal to move your plans forward, and you are more enterprising. You want to leave your mark on the world in some way--however big or small--and you are more able to make an impression than usual. If circumstances are such, you are able to easily fight back. In fact, you may be somewhat combative under this influence, and you may have a short temper.
Avoid being pushy. Take charge of your life, but don't bulldoze over others in the process! This is an excellent transit for assertiveness and physical vitality. Love affairs may also be stepped up during this period. On the rare occasion when an accident occurs, it is more likely to involve the head or face.

February 2026 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Aquarius:
February is very much about attending to your personal needs, dear Aquarius. Generally speaking, things are playing in your favor.

February is a brilliant month for learning new and exciting things. Your mind is often racing in the first two weeks. You are bolder than usual and motivated to pursue what you want and to prove your worth. There may be job offers or opportunities and significant bonuses or gifts this month.
The Solar Eclipse on the 17th is powerful. It occurs in your sign, and it can push you to leave something in your past in a big way so that you can begin anew. It helps pave the way for personal changes in the coming weeks, months — even years! It’s a time to reinvent yourself, such as with a new way of expressing and presenting yourself. Consider putting your best foot forward, as you are getting noticed and making a strong personal impression on others. You are braver and more adventurous, seeking out new experiences, and even if you aren’t consciously trying to find them, experiences will find you! Aim to get in touch with what you truly want.
While February is a month of opportunity, avoid trying to “do it all” too soon and too quickly. Instead, focus on one or two opportunities and projects. It should be a strong month for money matters. Emotionally, you’re definitely moving forward this month! On some level, this is a time for reinventing yourself. Your powers of attraction run very high, and people seem to notice your charm more than usual. After the Solar Eclipse in your sign on the 17th, you could feel a desire to update your appearance or change your presentation if you’ve been looking for a breath of fresh air. You might also envision what you’d like to make of the year ahead.
This eclipse acts as a powerful slate cleaner. Something new begins, and it can feel much like a new chapter in your life story. You are ready to kick bad habits, start fresh, and present a more self-assured “you” to the world. While there may be some discomfort, it's motivating you to start fresh. You’re getting several boosts, pushing you into the driver’s seat. This eclipse is the first in a set in the Leo/Aquarius signs, so it's new to you, but it will evolve until the final eclipse in the set occurs in January 2028.
With this eclipse set, you'll be discovering your independence, your relationship needs, and what makes you shine. It’s a time for turning points related to personality and partnership. A temporary feeling of invisibility can motivate you to change your approach to the world. There can be pleasant and sudden events or surprises as your life moves forward in significant ways.
As the month advances, you are entering into a brilliant period for increasing your earning power. You’ll be busy taking charge of your finances. Money-making opportunities are likely to present themselves, and the motivation to take advantage of them increases.
Your focus shifts further to practical affairs, especially from the 18th onward, and even with a Solar Eclipse in your sign just behind you, you strive for more predictability, comfort, and security in the last week of the month.
Keep in mind that Mercury is retrograde in your finances sector from the 26th forward, and it makes sense to look back before moving ahead with money matters. Still, you might discover new ways to improve your practical affairs, and you’re exceptionally resourceful with your time and energy. New ways of interacting with loved ones can yield surprisingly good results now.
Saturn changes signs this month, heading out of your sector of finances and resources and into your solar third house of communication. This ingress takes some of the pressure off in business, with money, and regarding practical affairs. You had a sneak peek of this last year, but now this influence is sticking with you and will run until April 2028.
During this new cycle, there can be increased daily responsibilities or commitments. Serious study, training, and detailed work are likely. Your ideas and studies may face tests to see whether or not they’re sound and worth your time. You’re learning the value of waiting for strategic moments to express yourself and choosing your words more carefully. Fortunately, it’s a stabilizing influence, as Saturn is now harmonizing with your sign and bolstering you.
Neptune recently began its transit of this area of your solar chart, and on February 20th, Saturn and Neptune meet there. Your thinking and ideas are both practical and imaginative. It’s a fine time for feeling needed or reinforced for your input, advice, intelligence, or ideas. You might help guide someone with constructive advice. Putting a dream in motion can be in the spotlight. You might also recognize that improved or streamlined communications can benefit you greatly. It’s an excellent time for developing skills that will help you now and in the future. Learning, studies, connecting, and communications projects can consume much of your time, but your efforts to discipline yourself can pay off.
It's a powerful month, particularly useful for starting anew, whether you're reinventing yourself or beginning a brand-new path towards greater personal fulfillment. A strong drive to take the driver’s seat in your life overcomes you, and you’re taking the necessary steps to get ahead. This is more about you personally than your professional life, which may take a back seat temporarily. Personal goals are in high focus.

Aquarius (Born February 10-19) and Aquarius Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Aquarius:
February 2026 Aquarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
February 2026
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until February 8th:
The Sun continues to shine its light on your solar twelfth house. This is the time to listen to your intuition, to take a break from the hectic pace of your life, and to reflect on what you have learned in the past year. You might naturally retreat a little and take more private time for yourself now.
Your physical energy levels may not be up to par for the time being, and this is your body signaling you to take a break. This is not an ideal time for pushing forward with new personal projects and plans. It is better to finish up projects and tie up loose ends now.
From February 8th forward:
The Sun illuminates your first house now, bringing issues surrounding your personal identity, appearance, outward behavior, and self-expression to the forefront. This marks the peak of your physical solar cycle, and you are in the position to make an impression on others, and to assert your personal influence. Spontaneity of expression is what this transit is about. You are ready to put your past behind you and to start a new personal cycle. You have presence and you project confidence. Increased energy and a renewed feeling of confidence is with you now, so take advantage.
It's a great month to do something entirely new and pioneering—to go solo in some area of your life. This particular season of the year smiles on your personal endeavors. This is a time when you more easily get in touch with a true sense of your identity and purpose. The most enterprising side of your nature surfaces, and it's time to seize opportunities. Existing problems in your life may be overcome now by bravery and a straightforward approach to your life.
There's nothing wrong with a bit of self-centeredness during this cycle, but avoid taking it too far. It's not the best time for teamwork and other cooperative endeavors. The spotlight is on you and your ability to lead, so make it a good one! Take steps to improve how you come across to others. It's time to carve your own path in life.
Eclipses
A Solar Eclipse occurs on February 17th:
Because new information that could change our perspective can reveal itself after an eclipse, it's better to avoid major decision-making the week before and after this event. It's a time to observe and wait and see.
The Solar Eclipse marks a new beginning for you. Letting go of the past is necessary in order to move forward. This eclipse occurs in your solar first house, suggesting a new approach to your personal life, the manner in which you come across to others, and the way you assert yourself. A focus on ways to improve or enhance your presentation, appearance, or mannerisms may be part of the picture in the coming months, as well as a sense of renewal and reinvigoration regarding how you assert your needs and express yourself to others.
You have an increased awareness of your own needs during this phase. It's a very powerful time for you--a time to reinvent yourself in some personal way, such as with a new look or manner of expressing and presenting yourself.
This is a personally busy time of year when you feel energetic and enthusiastic. Think about how you present yourself to others, focus on changing personal habits in such a way as to improve your confidence in yourself, and concentrate on putting your best foot forward, as this is a time when you will get noticed and make a stronger impression on others.
However, factor in the importance of authenticity in your presentation. You do not have to, of course, reveal all of yourself to others, but it's vital to act on your impulses and believe in yourself. This is a time when you can be brave and enjoy new experiences.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until the 2nd:
Venus continues to transit through your solar twelfth house now. The twelfth house is a sector of endings, privacy, and mental health, and with Venus here, it's possible that you are reviewing your feelings for someone, or enjoying a more private love life for the time being. You may not be open with your affections for whatever reason now, and this shouldn't be a problem—it may be difficult to articulate, verbalize, or intellectualize your feelings for the time being. Doing some soul-searching as well as an enhanced ability to perceive other dimensions in love can lead you to a deeper understanding of your own love needs and possibly of a love relationship. Love might involve some form of sacrifice or simply a lot of giving and lending of support as opposed to receiving during this cycle.
From February 2nd to the 25th:
You could find it hard to deny yourself much of anything during this cycle! This is a time when you naturally let loose your softer, receptive side. Romantic matters, as well as pleasure-seeking activities, come to the fore now. You are more likely to pay closer attention to your physical appearance and mannerisms, aiming to improve and enhance your attractiveness. Others find you especially agreeable and cooperative. You are more gracious, well-behaved (superficial if you are not careful!), and likable now. Take advantage! It's a time when you turn heads, and it's also a period for extra attention to pleasures, pampering, and enjoyment.
From February 26th onward:
Venus transits your solar second house and, as the natural ruler of the second house, Venus feels right "at home" here. This is a rather content position for Venus, although there can be some restlessness when it comes to money and spending it—you are more inclined to want more things around you! Financial security and enjoyment of the good things in life are important to you, although you also value simple pleasures. The ability to relate well with others might enhance your own personal finances during this period. You may find yourself in a position in which there is a blending of financial matters with social or public affairs. This is a stable position for love matters and close relationships. You value those who make you feel comfortable, and familiarity is more important to you than someone new during this cycle.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
From the 1st to the 20th:
With Mercury in your solar first house, you are most inclined to speak up about matters that you previously were only mulling over. Your disposition is more intellectual than usual now, and self-expression comes easily. You are sharper than usual--more observant, and more inclined to "live in the head". Relationships with siblings, neighbors, classmates, and casual friends may become more prominent in your life now.
It is likely that you will initiate discussions during this period, evaluate your appearance and the impact you have on those around you, and make contact with others rather than stay chained to any one place or activity.
This is the time to be direct and to communicate your needs and interests. You are more inclined to talk about yourself and your personal past now. This may also be a restless time when it is difficult to turn the thinking process off when it would be better to relax! It is an especially fruitful time for any endeavor that requires dealing with words, ideas, and facts and figures.
Your demeanor is more youthful, perhaps mischievous, light-hearted, and non-threatening so that others may be more inclined to turn to you for advice or pleasant conversation. Using the power of words to attract what you want or to further your interests works best for you now.
From the 20th forward:
With Mercury in your solar second house, this is a strong period for analyzing your cash flow, income, and earning power. You are more practical and rational in your approach to finances during this period. With your conscious mind focused on money and possessions, as well as personal values, this can be a strong period for gathering new money-making ideas.
Alternatively, it could be a time when you tend to fret over your finances. Conversations tend to be practical rather than frivolous now. Financial gain may come through communications.
Mercury is retrograde from February 26th to March 20th:
All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of communications regarding intimate and financial matters, as well as communications with children or romantic partners, because Mercury rules these areas of your life. It's not a good time to file your taxes or apply for a loan. Instead, take the time to re-think your sources of income and how you spend your cash during this period, but put off finalizing anything for the time being. Speculation and gambling are not advised right now either.
Occurring in your solar second house this time, extra care should be exercised when it comes to new financial initiatives. There may be the need to revisit old, nagging issues regarding personal finances. Take this time to re-budget instead of making premature purchases. Hold off on major decision-making regarding money. Instead, take the time to re-think your sources of income and how you spend your cash during this period, but put off finalizing anything important for the time being. In fact, some money-making ideas or ventures may be put on hold due to circumstances beyond your control. This is an excellent period for review, however.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until February 17th:
Mars continues to energize your solar twelfth house now. While Mars occupies the twelfth house, asserting yourself in a direct and straightforward manner can be difficult. This is largely due to a feeling of not being in touch with what it is you want or desire just for the time being as you reassess your goals and needs.
This lack of direction and self-knowledge should prompt you to look within to learn about your desires. It is likely that you will be much clearer when Mars reaches your first house. For the time being, take some time for rest and give your ego a break.
From February 18th onward:
You are able to stand your ground and assert yourself more than usual during this transit of Mars through your solar first house. You have energy at your disposal to move your plans forward, and you are more enterprising. You want to leave your mark on the world in some way--however big or small--and you are more able to make an impression than usual. If circumstances are such, you are able to easily fight back. In fact, you may be somewhat combative under this influence, and you may have a short temper.
Avoid being pushy. Take charge of your life, but don't bulldoze over others in the process! This is an excellent transit for assertiveness and physical vitality. Love affairs may also be stepped up during this period. On the rare occasion when an accident occurs, it is more likely to involve the head or face.
Overview Horoscope:
February 2026 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Aquarius:
February is very much about attending to your personal needs, dear Aquarius. Generally speaking, things are playing in your favor. With Mars in your sign all month, your independence and freedom are especially important to you. Your desire nature is very powerful, and while you may need to tone it down a little at times, if you use this period well, you’ll have all the courage necessary to make your dreams happen. The ball is very often in your court this month.
This can be a time of moving ahead with personal plans, becoming more active and involved, communicating, learning, and competitive undertakings. Mind you, you could feel that you’re often left to your own resources or especially independent, and this may or may not be welcome at this time in your life! However, certain people in your life seem to have your interests, agenda, and happiness in mind.
If you’ve been hesitant about starting a new project or plan of action, you’ll be ready this month to go forward. You are not only more assertive, energetic, and decisive, but you're also understanding the value of sometimes slowing down, and your personal presence is strong. Those of you taking courses or studying should be especially successful this month. Do watch for impatience and rebelliousness with planets in your sign squaring Uranus in spots this month. Disconnects with others can be part of the picture, particularly related to home or family life. Still, these interruptions have a way of pointing out new ways to do things you may not have seen otherwise.
Mars fires up your confidence and brings a more aggressive approach to your world, which could use some refining. Fortunately, Venus helps do just that while transiting your sign until the 10th, after which a more conscious effort is recommended for best results. Find ways to let your confidence and initiative work for you rather than against you.
The Full Moon on the 1st brings a whirlwind of emotion and activity with a close partner. It can mark a turning point for a key relationship. Just two days later, your planetary ruler, Uranus, turns direct after months of retrograde motion. Stalled or blocked endeavors, particularly around the home, can resume. It's another signal that you’re reawakening.
February is a brilliant month for learning new and exciting things. Your mind is often racing in the first two weeks. You are bolder than usual and motivated to pursue what you want and to prove your worth. There may be job offers or opportunities and significant bonuses or gifts this month.
The Solar Eclipse on the 17th is powerful. It occurs in your sign, and it can push you to leave something in your past in a big way so that you can begin anew. It helps pave the way for personal changes in the coming weeks, months — even years! It’s a time to reinvent yourself, such as with a new way of expressing and presenting yourself. Consider putting your best foot forward, as you are getting noticed and making a strong personal impression on others. You are braver and more adventurous, seeking out new experiences, and even if you aren’t consciously trying to find them, experiences will find you! Aim to get in touch with what you truly want.
While February is a month of opportunity, avoid trying to “do it all” too soon and too quickly. Instead, focus on one or two opportunities and projects. It should be a strong month for money matters. Emotionally, you’re definitely moving forward this month! On some level, this is a time for reinventing yourself.

About Our Monthly Horoscopes:
Our detailed monthly horoscopes are designed to reveal and interpret the current transits of the Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Mars in your solar chart.
Because these energies or transits do not unfold neatly into any given calendar month (many transits carry forward from one month to the next), you will find some of the energies continue from the previous month.
For example, the Sun might transit the seventh house of your solar chart from July 22 to August 22, so that you will find a similar interpretation for this transit in both July and August’s horoscope. This is normal and expected. While new months can hold new energy, transits don’t abruptly change because the calendar month changes.
These monthly horoscopes also include an overview paragraph, as well as other energies specific to the month, such as retrogrades, eclipses, or major outer planet transits.
The Highlights section reveals lunar cycle dates. Lunar cycles repeat themselves approximately every 28 days, so it is normal to see the same lunar peaks, such as “Your Personal New Moon” and “Monthly career peak” repeat themselves from month to month, but with different dates. They serve as a helpful guide to cycle peaks in different areas of life, such as financial, career, romance, and partnership.
The horoscopes are divided into three groups or decanates, and the differences between the groups are subtle in parts and large in other parts. For those who prefer a whole sign approach to horoscopes (classic), simply read the first decanate regardless of your birthdate.
