You
Who are the source of all power,
Whose rays illuminate the world,
Illuminate also my heart
So that it too can do Your work.

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Today:​
​​​
​We are in the midst of Eclipse Season!
Eclispes open energy portals! The Universe/Divine is in the driver's seat. This is a time when we need to sit back and observe what the Universe wants to take away or bring into our lives! Eclispes open portals of energy and can bring permanent changes into our lives. This is a time when souls are born or pass away. Relationships can begin or end. Trust that whatever is coming in or leaving our lives is for our Highest Good. DO NOT TRY TO FIGHT THESE CHANGES! Whatever is leaving our lives is a permanent ending.
Eclispes are not the time for manifestations, rituals, or trying to make our influence felt. Eclispes ask us to surrender and trust the Divine. Eclispes are times to turn inward, pray, and trust. This is not the time to initiate big changes; wait to see what the Universe delivers.
Ancient people avoided being out in the Sun/Moon during Eclispes; the luminaries' baleful light on this day was thought to bring illness or misfortune. Lie low and wait for the path to open again.
​
Today is the BIG DAY!
We have the Saturn-Neptune conjunction in Aries!
​
Here we go! Saturn and Neptune were briefed and had their dressed rehersal with the Aries Moon yesterday! Saturn and Neptune will meet this afternoon at 0* Aries. This is a powerful new beginning at the beginning of the zodiac and the Aries part of our charts. Just like that, reality shifts. What was acceptable in the past is no longer applicable! This is a new reality! Saturn and Neptune meet every 36 years, but having these planets meet at the beginning of the zodiac, on the World Point at 0* of Aries, is more than just a normal conjunction!
Saturn and Neptune have been traveling together through Pisces since 2023, when Saturn entered Pisces. They came close to their conjunction but didn't officially meet. They both briefly entered Aries last year, from May through August, but didn't meet there either! This is their one and only conjunction, which is notable because outer planets move slowly and usually meet 3 times due to their retrogrades. When slow-moving planets meet in one conjunction, their messages are intensified and more significant!
This wraps up a 36-year cycle of the last conjunction of these planets when they met in 1989. They met 3 times that year, in May, June, and November, all in Capricorn.
Today, we enter a new era!
​
The Moon continues through Aries today, only making one square with Jupiter.
​
​​The Moon is in Aries; the Moon in Aries is active, direct, spontaneous, initiating, self-assertive, energetic, naive, "me first," ardent, and a leader.
The Aries Moon is answering to Mars in Aquarius.
​​​
We have no aspects this morning. We are building toward the conjunction now.
​
Saturn in Aries conjuncts Neptune in Aries at 12:53 pm; Happy Saturn-Neptune conjunction! This is the birth point of a new era! These planets are meeting at 0*45' of Aries! This degree is called a World Point. It also marks the Spring Equinox point, the beginning of the zodiac, the start of Spring! This is a sacred point. It's a powerful time of new dreams, visions of the future, and bringing them into reality. Astrologer Caroline Casey said, Neptune lays the tracks for the reality train of Saturn to make it a reality. Mars, the god of war, is the ruler of Aries. Both Saturn and Neptune are answering to the God of War, a malefic planet. Both Mars and Saturn are malefic planets. Many astrologers believe Neptune behaves as a malefic planet. I've seen Neptune work in good and bad ways, but the bad ways Neptune behaves are horrific! Saturn is in its sign of Fall in Aries. In its sign of Fall, Saturn is in its sign of depression; it's dejected, uneasy, uncomfortable, crotchety, and overcome by Mars's influence of anger, rage, and force. Neptune is also uncomfortable in Aries; he prefers being in the Water signs. Neptune is in the forge now, creating new tools, weapons, and alchemy with the power of liquid fire! Historically, this conjunction in Aries is linked with the Russian Revolution, the US entering WW1, and the dissolution of old empires.
​
Moon in Aries squares Jupiter Rx in Cancer at 6:49 pm; this aspect highlights tensions around home and family matters versus our own needs. Selfishness can cause problems. Anger, aggression, and domestic violence are archetypes of this aspect. Pick your battles.
​
​
​​​​​​This Week:​​​
​​​​​​
It's the biggest week of the year!
​
The week starts with a bang! We have the Sun square Uranus very early Monday morning! We've been feeling this aspect building all weekend. This is the final Sun in a Fixed sign square to Uranus in Taurus for the next 85 years! This aspect signifies disruptions, shocks, surprises, unexpected events, accidents, and the revelation of information. Hang loose if possible and expect the unexpected. Change is in the air; it's big and permanent! Whatever is coming to light is for our Highest Good! This Sun-Uranus square is part of the Aquarius Solar Eclipse energy, so this amplifies this already significant time of shifts, changes, and permanent endings. New beginnings will follow over the next 6 months.
This square signifies earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, solar flares, power outages, and powerful, sudden storms.
Mercury trines Jupiter late Monday afternoon. This is the 1st of 3 trines between these planets. We are in the creative flow. This is a great time to make art, music, dance, and all manner of creative expression! This is a fertile time. Conversations and ideas are also flowing.
​
We celebrate the Lunar New Year of the Yang Fire Horse on Tuesday!
​Happy Lunar New Year!
This is a beautiful, energetic reset to the year! The Year of the Fire Horse promises to be action-packed, fast-moving, and radical! It's a time of passion!
We also have the Aquarius Solar Eclipse this morning! This Solar Eclipse is at 28*50' of Aquarius. It's an out-of-sign Eclipse, as the Nodes of Fate are still in Virgo-Pisces, but this is the 1st Eclipse coming in along the Leo-Aquarius axis! The last time we saw this exact Eclispe cycle was from12/2007-8/2009! When the North Node was in Aquarius and the South Node in Leo! We had the reversal of this cycle from 5/2017-11/2018.
This is a powerful Eclipse, with both the Sun and Moon in a hard square to Uranus, the Great Awakener, the planet of change and disruption! Eclispes already have a Uranian vibe to them, so having Uranus active during an Eclipses amps things up significantly! Buckle up!
​
The Sun enters Pisces late Wednesday morning!
Happy Pisces Season!
This Pisces Season has a VERY different flavor than the past several years, now that the Pisces part of our charts is free from Neptune and Saturn! Since 2011, Pisces and this part of our charts have been through a once-in-a-lifetime test! This is a beautiful reset. We currently have Venus exalted in Pisces, and Mercury for a prolonged stay in Pisces due to its upcoming retrograde next week! The Sun is also copresent with the North Node in Pisces, so our destined paths are unfolding for us over the next month.
​
On Friday afternoon, we have the Saturn-Neptune conjunction at 0* of Aries! Saturn and Neptune are now securely in Aries for the next 2 years for Saturn and 14 years for Neptune. The Aries part of our lives is up for some spiritual tests and fine-tuning. Saturn and Neptune were co-present in Pisces for the last 2.5 years, but they never met in Pisces. They both briefly entered Aries last year but were saving their exact conjunction for this moment! Neptune is asking what our vision is for the future, and Saturn is busy getting to work gathering the supplies to build it! This is a seeding point, so don't stress if you don't have it all worked out quite yet, but this is the time to focus on the future, dream big, and go after what you're most passionate about! Saturn and Neptune meet every 36 years, but it's extremely rare to have them in the same sign, not meet, then move on to meet at 0* of a new sign that they both briefly transited! Usually, outer planets, because they move slowly, will meet three times because of their retrogrades. This time, they only meet once, and it's at the beginning of the zodiac! Having this huge conjunction active during the Solar(New Moon) Eclipse window is astonishing! A new world is being birthed! The Universe/Divine is in the driver's seat now.
​
Sunday is a healing, restorative day. Mars sextiles Chiron on Sunday. This is a wonderful healing opportunity that gives us an energetic reprieve from the hectic pace of this week!
​
Also on Sunday afternoon, Venus trines Jupiter. The benefic planets, both in their signs of exaltation, are flowing together in harmony! This is a sweet cosmic kiss from the Universe! Enjoy this loving, nurturing energy!
​
​Monthly Energetic Overview ​​​​​​
​​
February 2026!
​
This month is absolutely wild! It's a world-changing month, so buckle up and hold on! If you thought January was intense, you ain't seen nuthin' yet!
​
We are in Eclipse Season!​ ​Eclipses signify times of massive changes, course corrections, births, deaths, and life-altering events. This is not the time to initiate any big moves or decisions. Let the Universe direct us. Eclipses open energy portals, and we never know what will come through these portals. It is advised against doing New Moon rituals during Eclipse Season. It's a time to pray, protect, and allow the Universe to do its thing! Trust that whatever is leaving or coming into our lives at this time is FATED! This is an out-of-sign Eclispe, and the first Eclispe along the Aquarius-Leo axis! This is another change we have to look forward to in 2026! We had mixed Eclispes this year. We are wrapping up the Virgo-Pisces Eclipses and welcoming in the Leo-Aquarius Eclipses! This is a South Node Eclipse, so we are releasing in the Aquarius part of our charts.
​
We begin the month with an intense Leo Full Moon on the 1st. It's the last Leo-Aquarius lination that's not an eclipse for the next 18 months! This year, we have mixed eclispes! We are wrapping up the Virgo-Pisces axis and moving onto the Leo/Aquarius axis.
​
We celebrate Imbolc on the 2nd. This is a Cross Quarter day. We are halfway through the Winter Season now. This is also celebrated as St. Brigid Day. It's a Fire Festival, a time when our ancestors recalled and celebrated the warmth and light of the Sun. They danced around fires so as to call the Sun back toward the North. This is a wonderful time for stringing warm white lights, lighting candles, using fireplaces, and having bonfires. This is a sacred, powerful day. Remember your inner light and shine brightly!
Mercury sextiles Chiron in the evening, reminding us of the healing power of fire! Enjoy herbal tea with fire herbs like ginger, cinnamon, or basil. Have healing conversations with friends and loved ones.
​
On the 3rd, Uranus Stations Direct in Taurus! We have been feeling Uranus's Station through the end of January. Uranus Stations can bring sudden shocks, surprises, disruptions, and unexpected events. This can be a time of earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, sudden, powerful storms, solar flares, and power outages. Please be careful around this time. Uranus can make us anxious and accident-prone. Uranus has been in Taurus since 2019, shaking up the Taurus part of our charts. This is Uranus's final Station Direct in Taurus for the next 85 years! Uranus will move into Gemini for the next 8 years in April! Uranus has been challenging in Taurus. Uranus is called The Great Awakener, Taurus is the most Fixed Earth sign of all Earth signs, and does not like change. Uranus has demanded that Taurus and our Taurus planets grow, think outside the box, and make important changes. Now Uranus sets its sights on Gemini. Uranus likes being in Gemini much better! It is said that Uranus is the Higher Octave of Mercury, the ruler of Gemini and Virgo. Uranus is doing a final shake-up from now through April in our Taurus house in our charts. Buck up, and address things that come up head-on, with an open mind, and a willingness to change and, more importantly, grow! Uranus transits are only painful when WE fight the changes it brings. Uranus loves humans and wants us to grow, be free, and reach for our true potential!
Be gentle with yourself and others. This energy can feel erratic and stressful.
​
Venus sextiles Chiron on the 4th. Venus and Chiron are bringing in some healing and reassurance as we recover from Uranus's Station Direct.
​
Mercury squares Uranus Stationary Direct, on the 5th. This is an accident-prone aspect! Slow down, avoid rushing! Be mindful of your words and thoughts, we are likely feeling garbled! Things are changing faster than we anticipated!
The Sun inconjuncts Jupiter Rx, ugh, another tough aspect. The Sun and Jupiter aren't seeing eye to eye. Compromise is key. We are having a battle between our minds and emotions.
​
On the 6th, Mercury enters Pisces! Mercury is in its Detriment and Fall in Pisces, and if that wasn't enough, it's also going to retrograde here! We will be navigating Mercury in Pisces until April 14th! This is the wonkiest Mercury Rx of the year and all during Eclipse Season. UGH! This is the 1st time since 2011 that Mercury is in Pisces, without Neptune being here! Also interestingly, Mercury will not meet Saturn in Pisces for the first time since 2023! Saturn leaves Pisces, just days after Mercury enters Pisces! Mercury will be doing a deep clean of the Pisces part of our charts to clear out the last bits of debris from Neptune and Saturn! Pay attention to what comes up these first few days of Mercury in Pisces. These are the themes we will be working with until April!
​
On the 8th, we have a Venus-Uranus square! This aspect shakes things up in relationships and partnerships! This is a breakup aspect; we can expect to hear about many breakups. Uranus is in Venus's home sign of Taurus, where it's been since 2018, changing our value systems and pleasure house in our charts. Uranus is wrapping up his time here, and Venus is checking him, making sure that he's staying on task! This is NOT the time to make permanent ot significant changes to your look or appearance! You likely will NOT like what you get! Save the impulse tattoo or new hairstyle/color for another day, when Venus is making happy aspects! We can expect to hear shocking news about women and the feminine energies. Unpleasant and unexpected news can come out now! Remember, we're in Eclipse Season, so breakups that happen now are permanent! Release or be dragged! Either way, it's over. Something more suited is on the way; be patient.
​
We enter the 4th Quarter phase of the Moon on the 9th. The Moon is Waning, decreasing in light. Use this time to reflect, turn inward, and practice extra self-care.
​
Venus enters Pisces on the 10th! Venus is exalted in Pisces, so she LOVES being here! Venus is here to support Mercury as it clears out and beautifies the Pisces part of our charts, now that we are cleared of Neptune and almost cleared of Saturn in Pisces! Our Pisces friends, part of our charts, and planets are about to get a huge and well-earned reprieve! Venus is the Goddess of Love and Beauty. She is becoming visible as the Evening Star while in her exalted sign this month! Love is in the air! Venus in Pisces is highly sexual, sensual, loves music, art, poetry, and dancing. This is a very romantic Venus, so enjoy her to the fullest! She's a very fertile Venus, so be responsible! Having Venus in her exaltation during a very intense month is certainly a blessing!
​
The Sun sextiles Chiron on the 11th, supporting us along our healing path. Seek new healers, doctors, or information on home remedies, astrology, etc.
​
On the 12th, Mars inconjuncts Jupiter. This can manifest as a health issue. If we've been ignoring pain or an illness, things can come to a head now. Mars is hardened, cold, and detached, but Jupiter wants to bring him comfort and healing. Compromise is necessary to get this energy flowing! Mars wants us to think outside the box.
​
Saturn re-enters Aries on the 13th! HERE WO GO! Both Saturn and Neptune are answering to the ruler of Aries, Mars! Mars is the God of War, planet of action, drive, risk, initiative, aggressiveness, courage, desire, energy, passion, will, impulsiveness, force, competitiveness, and the masculine. Saturn is in its Fall in Aries, so it's not a big fan of being in this sign. Saturn is slow, calculated, rules limitations, boundaries, control, old age, and fathers. Aries is the youthful, bragadocious, brave warrior; Saturn is the old, wise general. These energies can clash quite easily. Aries says, " Let's go quickly, Saturn says, " Slow down, take your time. This will feel like a stop, go, stop, go energy for the next 2.5 years! Saturn in Aries represents the young, cool old guy. Old when he's young and young when he's older. Saturn wants to teach Aries and the Aries part of our charts, or planets that we have in Aries, how to be more disciplined, mature, and to learn self-control. If we use this energy effectively, we can accomplish an impressive level of self-mastery! Saturn wants to teach us how to build, whether it's our bodies, patients, or a building. Saturn was last in Aries from 1996-1999. We may see themes from this time coming around again. This time, however, we have a Saturn-Neptune conjunction in Aries building! Saturn and Neptune have been traveling together in Pisces for the last 2.5 years, but they never met in Pisces! They will meet at 0* of Aries on 2/20! Saturn's time in Aries will be heavily flavored by Neptune. Saturn is building structures and solid foundations; Neptune is the planet of dissolution, escapism, and fantasy.
​
More coming later!
​
​
​
Neptune is back in Aries for the next 14 years! Neptune previously visited Aries from 3/31/25-10/22/25. Neptune has been moving over the beginning of the zodiac 0* of Aries on and off for a while now! We have been prepping for this powerful full initiation of Neptune restarting at the beginning of the zodiac! This is a birthing point. The entire zodiac begins at 0* of Aries! Neptune is the planet of sensitivity, sacrifice, spirituality, escapism, illusion, deception, unification, vagueness, imagination, idealism, confusion, dreams, drugs, art/music, dancing, acting, and film. Aries is the God of War, ruled by Mars. Aries energy is active, direct, spontaneous, initiating, self-assertive, energetic, naive, "me first," ardent, and a leader. Neptune will certainly debilitate, diminish, wash out, and spiritualize the Aries part of our charts. The Pisces have been dealing with Neptune in their sign since 2011. They get a much-deserved and permanent(as far as our lifetimes go) from Neptune! The Aries are now on a spiritual journey. This will significantly test the Aries part of our charts. Neptune does not love being in Aries. Neptune much prefers the watery depths of Scorpio and Pisces. Now Neptune learns the art and skill of forgery. Neptune in Aries is liquid fire, liquid mental, glass blowing, fire dancing, candle making, fiery oil spills, and bombs. The last time that Neptune was in Aries was from 1861-1875. This was when we had the Civil War in America, the Emancipation Proclamation, the assassination of Abraham Lincoln, the abolition of slavery in the US, Alaska was purchased by the US, the Fourteenth Amendment was passed, the Transcontinental Railroad was completed, the Women's Suffrage, the Sand Creek Massacre, and, most unfortunately, the rise of the KKK! Spiritual discernment will be imperative! This time is often correlated with a rise in cults! Spiritual/Religious delusions running rampant! This will be a highly creative time; we may feel called to go on spiritual journeys or to initiate new habits and routines. Keep this energy on the higher side, make time for imagination and daydreaming, then take action on your ideas!
Since Neptune is now answering to Mars, we need to keep an eye on what Mars is doing, because Neptune is using Mars's lens to communicate with us. Neptune is learning the Art of Spiritual War in Aries.

Alligator- Integration
Gator is telling you that something may have escaped your perception. Ask yourself what viewpoint or possibility was not factored into your assessment. Did that missing piece of the puzzle keep you from having an accurate overview of what is now occurring? If so, it is never too late to re-evaluate the situation from a more integrated and flexible point-of-view. Remember, Gator's eyes and nostrils are often the only parts of its body above water while it senses its surroundings. Gator integrates all probabilities before it makes its move.

Year of the Yang Fire Horse!

Fire Horse years are extremely fast-moving, so buckle up! The last time that we had a Fire Horse year was 1966! The Fire Horse is bold, independent, passionate, strong-willed, and rebellious! Live with passion! Let your light shine!
​
 Bedroom Feng Shui
I love the look of plants in the bedroom, but did you know that it is said that plants in the bedroom drain your energy? Humans are considered to be an Earth element. Plants are the Wood element. In the 5 Element theory, Wood drains Earth energy. As always, do what is best for you! Take a look at your energy levels; if you have plants, pictures of flowers, or even plant patterns on your bedsheets, maybe begin trading them out.
Bedrooms do best with neutral colors, earthy colors.
