General for Week Commencing: Monday 16 February 2026
Aries    Aries Monday 16 February 2026  Mar 21 - Apr 19
While the month long wind down of your old solar year doesn’t begin until Thursday and your birthday month and new solar year is still over a month away, as you move into the new week you are also moving into a new life chapter, with major new doors opening. Having both spent several months in Aries last year, it wasn’t until Neptune, the planet of hopes and dreams returned three weeks ago and Saturn over the weekend to begin a new three decade long Saturn cycle, that they committed to staying here for the long haul. Saturn, the planet with the resolve to do whatever it takes for as long as it takes and the power to move mountains if you have to, is in Aries now until April 2028 and Neptune until 2039, giving you 13 years to chase your dreams. This isn’t just one of the most powerful moments of the year for you, but of your life in general. This is when you get to take your power back.
 
Taurus    Taurus Monday 16 February 2026  Apr 20 - May 20
Moving into the new working week with the Moon in your career sector will always be an advantage, but this is doing more than just ensuring your professional instincts are sharp, while having your finger on the pulse and ear to the ground from the start. This has begun the lead up to Tuesday’s New Moon, something that in the Sun’s final days before leaving on Thursday, is going to turn the lights green and put a tailwind at your back. The New Moon comes on the same day that Mars moves into his final two weeks in your career sector, adding fuel to his professional passions, fighting and competitive spirit, while giving you a better sense of where to channel this. Meanwhile, ahead of the Sun’s return to your sector of friendship, teamwork and networking on Thursday Mercury, the planet of communication is already here and doing what he does best, while Venus already has the laws of attraction and synchronicity in effect.
 
Gemini    Gemini Monday 16 February 2026  May 21 - Jun 21
This is not only a week where there are some mixed messages at the start, but it is going to stay that way. In between Saturn’s departure from your career sector over the weekend and the Sun’s return on Thursday, Venus and Mercury are not only here, with heart and mind in the game and on the same page, but are helping you transition from what has been a long game and onto a push to make things happen now. Three weeks after Neptune, the planet of hopes and dreams, which had been here since 2012, left and after three years Saturn left over the weekend, there are no more planets that will keep things active for years and instead, a push to make the next few months count. However, you not only begin the week with the Moon in an adventurous part of your chart, but head towards and alignment with the Sun to create a New Moon on Tuesday. This is the same day that Mars will move into his final two weeks, adding fuel to his passion for adventure while giving you a better sense of where to channel this.
 
Cancer    Cancer Monday 16 February 2026  Jun 22 - Jul 22
Two days after Saturn returned to spend the next two years in your career sector, he not only begins the week aligned with Neptune, but they will remain aligned for the rest of the week. While Neptune, the planet of hopes and dreams is here now for the next 13 years, knowing that Saturn is only here until April 2028, is a chance to lock in his resolve to do whatever it takes for as long as it takes. While the Moon’s return on Friday will be a chance to check in, until the faster planets start returning next month, there is a chance to settle into the journey and focus on the long game. In the meantime, after Saturn left your sector of adventure, travel, learning and discovery over the weekend, Venus and Mercury are keeping the momentum going until the Moon returns on Wednesday and the Sun on Thursday, to keep the solar spotlight on the adventurous side of life’s fence for the next month. After 16 years of near continuous planetary activity on the adventurous front, along with Mars who will return next month, this is going to keep things active for a few more months.
 
Leo    Leo Monday 16 February 2026  Jul 23 - Aug 22
Moving into the new working week with the Moon in your work sector is always an advantage and especially with the lead up to Tuesday’s New Moon. While this was always going to give work and job matters the green light and a tailwind, making this a good time for new beginnings or to draw a new line in the sand, this also marks the beginning of the end of the active push that began last month to get work and job matters up to speed. With the Sun leaving on Thursday, something that will take the solar spotlight off your work situation and job matters and shift it onto your relationships, this will make it easier to navigate these final days. The New Moon falls on the same day that Mars moves into his final two weeks in your work sector, giving you a better read on his work passions, fighting and competitive spirit and of where to channel this. Meanwhile, after Saturn left your relationship sector over the weekend and Venus and Mercury, the planets of love and communication are keeping the momentum going until the Sun gets here on Thursday.

Libra    Libra Monday 16 February 2026  Sep 23 - Oct 23
As you move into the new week, a clash involving the Moon, Jupiter and the asteroid Juno over the weekend has just finished delivering the last real push to get your attention when it comes to your work/life balance and the timing couldn’t be better. While this isn’t something that will linger and instead, starting the week with a friendly aspect between Mercury in your work sector and Jupiter in your career sector will make it easy to turn this into the motivation to work smarter. This couldn’t be more important, for the week not only begins with a New Moon in a playful and creative part of your chart under way, but two days after returning to spend the next three years in your relationship sector, Saturn not only begins the week aligned with Neptune, the planet of hopes and dreams here, but they will remain aligned for the rest of the week. Moving into some pivotal months on both sides of life’s fence, it is all about having the right work/life balance.
 
Scorpio    Scorpio Monday 16 February 2026  Oct 24 - Nov 21
Two days after returning to spend the next two years in your work sector, Saturn not only begins the week aligned with Neptune here, but they will remain aligned for the rest of the week. Three weeks after Neptune, the planet of hopes and dreams returned to spend the next 13 years here, Saturn has returned with the resolve to do whatever it takes for as long as it takes. Spending their first full week together aligned is a chance to cement a partnership that will shape the coming years. Meanwhile, with Venus in her first full week in a playful and creative part of your chart, the Moon returning on Wednesday, the Sun on Thursday and Mercury slowing ahead of a retrograde turn that will keep him here until April, there are moves afoot to ensure life doesn’t become all work and no play. Meanwhile, before returning, the Sun and Moon begin the week aligned as a New Moon that offers a chance for new beginnings and to move things forward on the home and family front.
 
Sagittarius    Sagittarius Monday 16 February 2026  Nov 22 - Dec 21
Thanks to the Moon’s departure from your income sector on Sunday, there is not only a chance to move into the new week with a sharp nose for money and a download of information to unpack on the income, work and career fronts, but with a better read on both sides of the financial fence. Until Jupiter, the planet of luck and expansion leaves your financial sector and ends his 12 month quest for financial growth and expansion in over a decade in June, the Moon’s return to your income sector each month will see them clash. The difference this time was that this came just as Jupiter was also clashed with the asteroid Juno in your income sector. While this might have created some financial tension as both sides of the financial fence fought for your attention, a positive start to the week on the income, work and career fronts and Jupiter’s friendly aspect to Mercury is turning this into motivation on both sides. Meanwhile, there is something special developing on the fun, playful, romantic and creative front.
 
Capricorn    Capricorn Monday 16 February 2026  Dec 22 - Jan 19
What a difference a day can make. Right up until the Moon left Capricorn on Sunday, it was putting pressure on Jupiter in your relationship sector, just as the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment was doing the same. This was far from the first planet moving through Capricorn this year to clash with Jupiter, but it was the last, with the Moon on hand to both exacerbate any strong emotional responses and use this to better understand what you want from your relationships and what they need from you. By the time you move into the new week, this is not only scaling back, but the week begins with Jupiter at a friendly aspect to Mercury, the planet of communication. As you move into Venus’ first full week in your communication sector and of her mission to give your heart and your relationships a voice, everything is laid out for her. Meanwhile, a New Moon in your income sector is helping to get the week off to a lucrative start.
 
Aquarius    Aquarius Monday 16 February 2026  Jan 20 - Feb 18
It is during the final days of your birthday month that you have a chance to commit to your new solar year, the future and the journey ahead, ready to draw a new line in the sand. The week begins with the Moon already in Aquarius ahead of Tuesday’s New Moon, something that, as the solar and lunar cycles line up, can create an opportunity for new beginnings and to draw a new line in the sand. With the Sun leaving on Thursday, the timing couldn’t be better and especially as Tuesday is also the day that Mars moves into his final two weeks in Aquarius for another two years. This will both add fuel to Mars passions, drive, warrior and competitive spirit and give you a better sense of where to channel this. Meanwhile, Venus who left Aquarius last Tuesday and Mercury three days earlier, are focused more on getting things moving on the income front, as they take over from where Saturn left off when after three years, he left your income sector over the weekend.
 
Pisces    Pisces Monday 16 February 2026  Feb 19 - Mar 20
This is less a week of two halves and more the transition or an overlapping of the past, present and future. As you move into the new week, you are also moving into the final days of your old solar year, with the Moon’s return to a nostalgic and reflective part of your chart on Sunday and the lead up to the New Moon here on Tuesday, adding to a sense of nostalgia. When the Sun returns to Pisces on Thursday, it will be to begin your birthday month and new solar year. Yet with Venus and Mercury not only already in Pisces, but after three years Saturn having left over the weekend, they are already opening new doors, while with Mars staying on a nostalgic and reflective part of your chart for another two weeks, old doors will remain open. Meanwhile, two days after returning to spend the next two years in your income sector, Saturn not only begins the week aligned with Neptune, the planet of hopes and dreams here, but they will remain aligned all week, with a chance to cement a partnership that will shape the coming years.
