Shining A Light On Humanity

We are living through a richly profound time of shifting sands as the electromagnetic fluctuations of slow moving planets move through the Zodiac.

Regarding their influence at this moment in time from an astrological perspective itself is a fascinating endeavor.

We are living in a moment that contains a plethora of Zodiacal planetary themes.

Elements, ideas and concepts that have potential electromagnetic vibrational impulses are being activated.

Being aware of events here on Earth as well as awareness and understanding of the planetary movements and aspects they form is beneficial.

To co-create as evolutionary impulses get played out has the potential to move us towards significant shifts in consciousness.

Which, BTW, is always happening. As we are understanding through quantum theory that life and our planet is not static.

We are just not usually aware of it.

Be that as it may, currently we are in the midst of a critical mass moment. A critical crossroads where we must find the wherewithal to consciously decide to choose between higher evolution and consciousness or not.

A reckoning is upon us. We can perceive it astrologically through the configurations indicated by the movement of the heavenly spheres.

As the planets and various points move through the Zodiac we have the capacity to become aware of utilizing the energies to compel us forward towards social change. Or not.

We can also utilize this epic time as an opportunity for slow and steady growth towards our personal reinvention as well.

While Aquarius energy is about innovation, social change and most importantly personal liberation, it is also about humanity. Aquarius is a humanitarian sign.

The characteristic cool self involved detachment of the Aquarius sign itself can be fascinating to understand.

The sign requires some insight into the need that motivates these qualities. Understanding the Aquarius sign from its humanitarian perspective offers a sensible understanding about its cool detached quality. This insight can be helpful in understanding the transit of Pluto through Aquarius.

The ultimate goal and resource of Aquarius is to pioneer shifts and changes that serves the good of all. To be rooted in an ethical humanity informed by the backbone of integrity.

However the need to be connected to the body while playing by the rules of Earth’s gravity can be a challenge.

Be that as it may, in actuality the detached Aquarian who is judged as egocentric and self involved is genuinely motivated by a quandary where there is a deep discrepancy.

A dilemma concerning being aware of integrating a healthy selfhood on planet Earth.

In other words an important component of the Aquarian experience is about focusing on being embodied in an actual body on planet Earth.

Hence, Aquarians appear to be cool, detached and self involved. Really it is due to an inherent need to focus so much energy on remembering to be connected in present time to their bodies on the Earth plane. Hence they appear cool and detached.

So having said that…..

The New Moon Solar Eclipse at 28 degrees Aquarius @ 7:01 AM EST on 2/17/2026 ~

This New Moon/Sun conjunction began a waxing Moon cycle at 28 degrees Aquarius on 2/17/2026.

Contained within this dynamic stellium of brilliant, original and rebellious tendencies are themes of innovative and technological advancement.

How these components shall affect the structural transformation of our societies we are as of yet still in the midst of finding out. Albeit, we must remember the choice is still ours, based on our love and respect of humanity.

Insofar as it is essential that there are components of the moment we are living through that must be acknowledged and dialogued about. Specifically from an Aquarian humanitarian perspective.

We must utilize the grace and strength of integrity with a strict adherence and respect for ethical behaviors that respects and values all of life.

So that technological advancements must be tempered by emotionally well developed individuals with healthy psychological understandings integrated with heartfelt soulful spirituality.

Astrologically the Solar Eclipse contains the conjunction of the North Node currently at 8 degrees Pisces in opposition to the South Node at 8 degrees Virgo. While the New Moon in Aquarius widely conjuncts the Nodal axis, it’s a new beginning within an ending.

The New Moon/Solar Eclipse is where we are being introduced to the Aquarius/Leo Nodal Axis shift.

The actual shift of the Nodal Axis from Pisces/Virgo to Aquarius/Leo won’t occur until July 26, 2026. However, this New Moon in Aquarius is still evocative of significant Aquarian themes.

The 2/17/2026 New Moon Solar Eclipse along with all of the other phenomenal shifts occurring closely enough within this time frame is setting the tone for the transitional moment we are living through.

We continue the process of fine tuning our lives for an emerging decade of changes. This goes along with all of the millennial shifts brought about by the Saturn/Neptune conjunction at 0 degrees Aries.

The New Moon in Aquarius generates a time of invention and innovation. It is also a significant time to re-think how we got ourselves here. Referring to the state of affairs we find ourselves in now.

We are transitioning out of the macho paradigm of “power over”. As a collective society we are still in the midst of just beginning to understand the integrity and power that is inherent in each of us. The awareness that it is truly up to each and every one of us to claim our power as it is generated from within our being.

There is an awakening. As Aquarius ruled by Uranus and Saturn seeks to stimulate.

Through the possible outcomes suggested by evidenced based reality we must be progressing towards a healthy innovative paradigm. A relevant paradigm that honors and respects truth. The basic truth that real power like beauty must come from within. For all of us.

Power from within is steeped in ethics, integrity and respect for law. Power from within emerges from real presence geared towards wisdom through true self empowerment. Truth steeped in reality as we experience it.

We are living in a pivotal moment where more and more people are becoming conscious and aware. Aware enough to do the work that demands a just and fair law abiding country and global community as the desired and healthy status quo.

Even as social structures based on the “hungry ghost phenomena” have led us to this dangerous point of dissociation, people are beginning to remember who we truly are. It is only when we are in the darkest moments that we see the light.

Prior to the New Moon in Aquarius that occurred on the 17th of February, there had been many more profound planetary shifts.

Beginning with Neptune.

On January 26, 2026 Neptune’s ingress to 0 degrees Aries had occurred. Neptune’s transit through Aries continues until 2039.

This transit follows the aftermath of Neptune’s transit through Pisces from 4/4/2011 ~ 1/26/2026.

In any case, the significance of the transit of Neptune @ 0 degrees Aries is epoch.

In part due to the fact that 0 degrees Aries is a powerful World Point.

The Zero degrees point of Aries brings us to the beginning of the Zodiac.

Zero degrees Aries is the point of the Vernal Equinox. Neptune at 0 degrees Aries is the real and the symbolic. Being a very slow moving planet it influences a slow and sure awakening of the world around us once again.

As such it represents a significant turning point in consciousness due to the Neptune influence.

As a collective global consciousness we are shifting from inner intention to outward manifestation, through the fiery instinctual Aries influence.

Neptune at O degrees Aries is the beginning of a new era for our entire global community. We are in a seed moment. We are in the midst of a profound reset of our entire Earth’s civilization.

So we shall see how this gets played out as we embody the ethereal, (Neptune), through the reclamation of the instinctual connection to our bodies, (Aries),

This 0 degree is a fascinating phenomena unto itself. If you would take a moment to imagine the glyph of the number 0 as an expanding, ever widening circle.

As the 0 becomes larger, larger and larger still. Imagine it expanding so much so until it becomes an opening.

A way through…..

We can comprehend this moment symbolically as an expansion of our perceptions inviting us to walk through a doorway into a new consciousness.

Neptune at 0 degrees Aries has the capacity to inspire life affirming activities of empowered individuals.

To imbue the Spiritual Warrior within us all towards intentional life affirming actions motivated by self assertion via skillful means.

I am describing the birth of the Spiritual Warrior.

The Spiritual Warrior can be described as an individual who is mindful of their own self ignorance, their fears and their negativity as opposed to projecting these experiences upon external enemies.

The Spiritual Warrior seeks the cultivation of inner discipline, courage, and unconditional love in the form of compassion, empathy and understanding.

To overcome and transcend personal suffering while being in service to help and guide others. To cut through illusions, false beliefs and antiquated social conditioning.

The “sword of truth” is their metaphorical weapon of choice.

For the Spiritual Warrior their power comes from within. It is contained within the experience of self empowerment. Motivated through the depths of compassion and understanding (Neptune), that supports life, (Aries).

Neptune transiting through Aries can be understood to be a positive form of service. To be the starting point to trigger the active awareness needed in order to inform our instinctual natures to survive. And to thrive.

Neptune in Aries has the potential to evoke the humility, grace and strength required to cut through the dangerous pathological narcissism of too many current “Heads of States”. As we are currently witness to.

Along with identifying those who are held so tightly in the grips of these antiquated delusional drunken tyrants. So fused with a paradigm we are evolving out of.

Time to turn this around.

With Neptune in Aries we have the capacity to perceive the image of the Sword in a different way. No longer the “War God” metaphor of Aries. Rather, the sword can be utilized as a metaphorical tool used to cut through deceptions and delusions.

The sword of Aries can be repurposed to cut through the toxic delusion of illusion in order to reveal the light of truth.

Suffice it to say Neptune at 0 degrees Aries marks the beginning of the birth of consciousness that seeks to utilize the proverbial sword wisely. If at all.

Since Neptune is a solvent that dissolves the natural separation of boundaries. This brings to our attention an innate ability to transcend our perceptions of reality. With the practice and discipline of meditation combined with a healthy developed sense of self we open our hearts to compassion and empathy.

🌹When then on February 1, 2026 @ 5:09 PM EST we had the Full Moon in Leo at 13 degrees being illuminated through its opposition to the Aquarius Sun at 13 degrees.

Held ever so brightly, distinctively and dynamically in opposition to a very well populated Aquarius stellium.

The creative component of the Leo Full Moon ignites joyful exploration through creative means.

To boogie on down in order to shake things up!

🌹Serving to bring the light of awareness towards some sort of movement within the vicinity of some divine manifestation of necessary intervention.

Contained within the stellium that opposed the Leo Moon was Pluto at 3 degrees Aquarius conjunct Mars at 7 degrees. A powerful dynamic combination of vibrant willfulness.

Then Mars conjunct the Sun in its opposition to the Moon in Leo at 13 degrees Aquarius. Activating the instinctual creative impulses of this moment.

Continuing on with Venus at 19 degrees Aquarius conjunct Mercury at 21 degrees. Emphasizing the necessity of communication as a means of establishing some sort of common ground that values the benefits of diplomacy, the Venus factor.

The courageous, creative and vibrant Leo Moon with its warming heart and soul which then balances the cool mind oriented~group oriented socially civic Aquarius.

Reminding us of the need to tap into our creative spirits. To bring the beneficial joy of creative self expression into the mix.

Seeking the balance within the opposition that Aquarius ruled by Uranus and Saturn offers. By becoming the pioneers of original thoughts and ideas. The motivation being to reform and improve civic society for all.

With all the other dynamic planetary shifts occurring this year, suffice it to say that the Full Moon in Leo on the 1st of February could be understood to have been an encouraging lunation event. A decisive moment of awareness where commitment is required in order to continue to do the work that brings to light the Aquarius commitment to humanity.

And then…. On 2/3/2026 Uranus stationed Direct!

Uranus being the powerful ruling planet of Aquarius with its earned reputation of wreaking havoc and disruption all in service of the people’s liberation.

Uranus stationing Direct at 27 degrees Taurus on 2/3/2026 indicates that we are in the midst of what is understood to be a “final reckoning”.

A time to evaluate and comprehend the past 7 years of disruption to our resources, our finances and our stability in terms of where we are at right now.

The Uranus retrograde cycle itself, which had begun in September 2025 allowed for a period of internal review in order to take stock and ameliorate. This is what retrograde cycles are about in part.

However currently through the direct movement of Uranus in Taurus, we are once again in the sphere of influence that could elicit unexpected changes as well as possible breakthroughs.

The idea of “possible breakthroughs” being the operative words here. As this marks the final phase of Uranus transiting through Taurus.

Uranus has been transiting through Taurus since 2018. Now its continuing movement forward will bring it closer to Gemini.

There where it shall make its ingress on April 25, 2026 when the focus will be communication and technology. My own personal preference would include connecting with our humanity. The heart, soul and reason for everything. This must be remembered as a sacred part of the equation.

Still and all, the effects of Uranus in the midst of this current period has the capacity to evoke the disruptive awakening part of the Uranus equation.

Where the endpoint is humanity awakening towards liberation.

(That must exclude the criminal behaviors of those holding power. They must be impeached, indicted and incarcerated. A whole other psychological/philosophical /spiritual topic about that is yet to be explored and studied, by healers and Bodhisatvas alike.)

Perhaps for some it will be a rude awakening, for others inconvenient yet mindful disruption leading to liberation…

It all depends upon how out of touch and asleep one is. Nonetheless it is good to be mindful of possible disruptions of systems that no longer serve our well being and humanity. Indicating that changes are at hand that will make life better for All.

Some of the systems being affected are areas of personal and collective values. This includes finance, money and environmental stability.

This a time where movement forward is being summoned up in areas of life that have felt stagnant. Issues and areas of life that require necessary structural change.

It can be reassuring and validating perhaps to keep in mind that as this is a time through which sudden unpredictable events occur. Holistic solutions can come into being that must serve the many, not the few.

It is time to let go of obsolete brittle structures. Now it is time to make room for fresh innovative ways of living. New innovative ways of earning a living that supports life while respecting and utilizing our Earth’s resources.

At the time when Uranus stationed direct on 2/3/2026, the Moon in Virgo formed a sextile to Jupiter retrograde in Cancer. While both formed quincunxes to the Sun in Aquarius.

The Yod aka, “The Finger Of God” consisted of the waning Virgo Moon forming a sextile to retrograde Jupiter in Cancer. The sextile connected both planets through quincunx to the Sun in Aquarius.

This Yod points the way towards the need to restore harmony.

The analytical detail oriented energy of the Virgo Moon interconnected with the emotional, protective and expansive energy of Jupiter in Cancer can be uplifting. Thus creating a supportive opportunity to ground and center big emotions in order to make solid long term plans.

However, the quincunx that the Jupiter sextile Moon forms to the Aquarius Sun challenges the sextile. In a way forcing solutions. So that through the lack of harmony adjustments are made.

🌹The power of this Yod is pointing to the necessity of aligning one’s personal freedom with collective humanitarian goals.

To keep in mind that Uranus in Taurus is a significant player contained within the Minor Grand Trine to Pluto in Aquarius sextile to the Saturn/Neptune conjunction.

This Minor Grand Trine, shown below, which is active for several years.

It began coming into formation in 2022. However, the pattern began operating strongly in 2025 and will go on until 2027.

The powerful outer planets of transformation involved, including the Saturn/Neptune conjunction at 0 degrees Aries are in harmonious and creative relationships to each other. This is an astrological auspicious configuration.

The electromagnetic relationship of this configuration has the capacity to provide all peoples of the global community with an extended window of time. A window of time to “get it together”, as it were.

The time needed to remember to hold strongly to ideas and democratic concepts that will support our societies.

To be the founders, creators and inventors of creative life affirming solutions that shall enable us to move forward into the manifestation of new life chapters.

To utilize these energies to support making long lasting changes that align with our personal and collective evolution.

As of 2/20/2026, Saturn is conjunct Neptune @ 0 degrees 45’ 10” @ 11:54:02 AM EST

The profundity of the conjunction of these 2 slow moving planets at 0 degrees Aries indicates a 2000 year transitional interval of time. We are now moving through it.

To be walking through the door of a new era that holds the human potential of grounding and centering our dreams into reality.

Zero degrees Aries is known as the World Point because it is the beginning of the cycle of the 12 signs of the Zodiac Wheel.

Zero degrees Aries is also known as the Aries Equinox. It is a Cardinal, Fiery point of the birth of a season of renewal and life. The Spring Season. We are in the midsts of heralding in the pioneering of a new chapter for humanity.

We are at the intersection of dreams and reality. Saturn with its solidifying nature seriously transposes the transcendent spiritual visions and mysteries into visceral experience.

Through remembering to breathe, thereby being fully present we are becoming aware of the nature of the current circumstances we find ourselves in.

Neptune acts as a solvent leading to the bare bones of knowledge, Saturn.

Through awareness of what is not sustainable or supportive of life, the energies of these configurations grants us the conscious awareness of what is.

Yes, this shift in cycle brings leaps in technology concerning AI. Whereby our humanity is being tested as lines are blurred between the physical world and virtual realities.

However it is in our own hands to find the way to honor the necessity and responsibility of building new structures. To build new systems and structures being held together through principles of ethics and integrity.

It is understood that the transit of Saturn conjunct Neptune through Aries will eventually, slowly but surely burn away the fog of Pisces.

For now, Saturn conjunct Neptune at 0 degrees Aries demands courage to take actions.

Taking consistent steps forward imbued with spiritual/emotional maturity that has been gleaned during the transit through Pisces.

Fascinating to note that while Saturn/Neptune conjunctions happen every 36 years, the specific alignment to 0 degrees Aries occurs after thousands of years. The last time was 4361 BCE. Adding approx 2026 years AD and we see this as a powerful significant constellation of energies.

How this shall unfold we do not know. I believe that we are indeed the riders on the horse and the Captain of the ship. Therefore it is up to us. The astrology simply helps us be aware of the influences.

It is helpful to know that Saturn and Neptune in Aries is an energy that doesn’t flow so easily. However, it’s also good to know that the remedy is to deal with the challenges through harvesting our patience and implementing the willingness to take responsibility.

To move forward with courage as we are compelled to build new innovative structures that are sustainable and that supports life.

The exciting era we are moving into requires taking responsibility for our dreams, both collectively and personally. We must transpose our dreams, our ideals into solidified, stabilizing actions to be made manifest in the real world.

My two intentions and motivations for writing these ideas based on my understanding of these epoch planetary shifts are;

#1 ~ To heal the “I – It” relationship towards living into the “I – Thou” relationship, as Martin Buber describes.

#2 ~ To be aware of the astrological activity to serve as validation and encouragement as we keep on, keepin’ on….

This moment in time through the signs ~

Aries ~ Ruling planet Mars in Aquarius conjunct the Sun in Pisces square to Uranus in Taurus could evoke some frustration and restlessness. Be patient for your energies will flow again soon enough. For now remember to breathe, be fully present and go one step at a time. If you can take some time for yourself to clear your head via meditation, yoga, hiking or any activity that enables you to channel the energy of all the tension. To stay connected to your Qi in a way that aligns you with a balanced sense of self as you continue on. On some level everybody is feeling it, but as an Aries you are in the thick of the energy vibration of the Saturn/Neptune conjunction 0 degrees Aries.

Taurus ~ Relax into a zone of selfless love where the depth of your intuition has the capacity to imbue you with the guidance and understanding you have been yearning for. Music is an excellent place where your soul can be fed and you may receive inspiration that opens new doors to you of understanding which then opens doors to new opportunities.

Gemini ~ Time to lose your mind and come to your senses. What with Pisces making its way through your ruling planet Mercury. Mercury which is beginning to station retrograde on 2/25/2026 until 3/20/2026. A good time to chill and go with the flow especially with Venus’s influence chiming in trine to retrograde Jupiter in Cancer. Both love and finances could unfold in an interesting way.

Cancer ~ As the Moon in Aries conjoins with the epic Saturn/ Neptune conjunction at 0 degrees Cancer set your intentions towards moving forward. If you are coming up against challenges now it’s because a rerouting of your plans is at hand. Sometimes even delays can prove beneficial. So breathe, be patient so you can clarify what the revised plan is.

Leo ~ Surrender yourself to service. Through helping others you might find that it is a way of helping yourself. By way of connecting and shining your creative light towards innovative solutions you glean a sense of inner satisfaction that will invigorate and energize you for quite some time ahead.

Virgo ~ This time is utilized well by working towards projects that emphasizes the importance of self care, nourishment and loving yourself. It is the best way to set yourself up to be able to give to others such as your partner. If you have one. If you do not this is an auspicious time to meet someone. Doors are closing as doors begin to open up.

Libra ~ This is a good time to reflect on situations that require understanding, compassion and forgiveness. With your ruling planet Venus transiting through Pisces and as Mercury gets ready to station retrograde people and issues from the past could emerge. Your inherent desire to seek balance and harmony can be beautifully tempered through the ruling planet of Pisces, being Neptune. Neptune is the higher octave of Venus. So this is certainly an interesting moment for you. Focus on your intentions based on your deepest desires.

Scorpio ~ This is a particularly fascinating time for you. Filling your mind with unique and original ideas, along with the energy to carry them through. Concentrate your energies on what you need to let go of in order to liberate some part of your life. It is time to let the powerful inspiration of these profound energies fill you with the intuitive guidance towards your next steps.

Sagittarius ~ At this epoch moment of shifting energies it is wise to find the balance between your love of adventure and the need for inner reflection. To be mindful of practicing patience while allowing yourself to come to terms with the dichotomy of having 2 contradictory needs at the same time. The beauty of this moment is you can be rest assured that all will work out well. Even if it is not exactly as you think things should be it is ultimately what you need. So keep going.

Capricorn ~ Utilize the current shift in energies to get things done that have been difficult to get to. At the same time surrender to situations unfolding outside of your control that could slow things down or require a change of plans. Surrender to circumstances beyond your control trusting that all will resolve as it must in the long run.

Aquarius ~ It is so important to collect yourself and focus on what is most important. It’s a powerful time where you are being forced to somehow integrate your personal needs with external connections. Coming into the world ready and willing to help. Somehow trusting the balance will be found. Sometimes the frustration is the correct dissonant chord to connect with your heart and soul. All this as you begin to integrate your inner personal world with making connections with the external world. With ethics and integrity the work is just beginning again……

Pisces ~ ✨🌞✨ Happy Solar Return! ✨🌞✨ Big shifts and new focuses for you ahead. It’s a year ahead of clarifications for you as Neptune your ruling planet is transiting through the Cardinal Fire sign Aries. Burning away the fog and bringing your energy to a higher level of vitality. Even within the powerful conjunction to Saturn in Aries. It is time for you to embrace your inner power. It is your time. So take stock of your life at this auspicious moment of entering into a New Year. To write down what your intention is so that you can carry your deepest desires towards fulfillment. Many happy returns!

Well there it is for now……I hope this was helpful and inspiring as well as supportive and encouraging.
