    The Week of February 16th, 2026: A historic Saturn–Neptune meetup — oh, and a solar eclipse

    Episode 270 In this podcast, New York Times best-selling author and astrologer Chani Nicholas discusses the astrology of the week and what it might mean for us all. The astrology of the week of February 16th, 2026, pushes us head-first into a new era. The solar eclipse in Aquarius kicks off an eclipse cycle about leadership and people power, challenging us to turn chaos into liberation. Then Saturn (the planet of structure) and Neptune (the planet of imagination) make a super-rare connection in fiery Aries. We’ve been building toward this moment for years, but now it’s time to join forces, envision a way through the mess, and get to work. Intense? Definitely. But this moment gives us everything we need to start fresh — together. This episode covers: Mercury’s trine to Jupiter on Monday, February 16th The solar eclipse in Aquarius on Tuesday, February 17th The Sun’s entrance into Pisces on Wednesday, February 18th Saturn’s conjunction with Neptune on Friday, February 20th The Moon’s exaltation in Taurus on Saturday, February 21st Venus’ trine to Jupiter on Sunday, February 22nd This episode was recorded on 01/13/2025.

    The Week of February 9th, 2026: Lessons in care from Saturn and Venus

    Episode 269 In this podcast, New York Times best-selling author and astrologer Chani Nicholas discusses the astrology of the week and what it might mean for us all. The astrology of the week of February 9th, 2026, reminds us to take care of ourselves and each other. Venus moves into Pisces (where it’s exalted), bringing abundance and blessings to our relationships and community efforts — but Mercury’s meet-up with the North Node may lead to murkiness and miscommunications. And once Saturn shifts from Pisces into Aries, we’re given a new slate of tough lessons about our boundaries and foundations. Just remember: Staying connected to the causes and commitments that matter most to us is the thing that will get us through. This episode covers: Venus’ entrance into Pisces on Tuesday, February 10th Mercury’s conjunction with the North Node on Wednesday, February 11th Saturn’s entrance into Aries on Friday, February 13th The Sun’s square to Uranus on Sunday, February 15th Saturn’s conjunction with Neptune in Aries on Friday, February 20th This episode was recorded on 01/12/2026.

The astrology of the week of February 2nd, 2026, asks us to get the message. In the wake of shake-ups from last week’s Full Moon in Leo, Uranus — the planet of disruption — stations direct in Taurus, issuing a warning about injustice and encouraging us to get creative with our rage. Then Mercury and Venus both make a square to Uranus, further emphasizing our need for collective liberation. Now is the time to clarify the connections and causes that matter most — before eclipse season starts.
