Astrology for February 6-12 2026

Mercury and Venus Enter Pisces

On February 6, Mercury enters Pisces until April 14, a very long stay for Mercury due to it stationing retrograde on February 26. Mercury in Pisces is known for connecting the mental with the intuitive. It is a long period of time where details can become fuzzy or unclear, but intuition and creativity heightens. Mercury will enter its pre shadow period on February 11, so it is very likely that whatever occurs this month, we will be reconsidering and reframing our involvement with it in some way until mid April. Pay attention, maybe take note in a journal, as receipts and linear memory will be more difficult to reference during this period of time. This is an amazing time period for artists and dreamers, energy workers and healers. 

On February 8, Venus in Aquarius squares Uranus in Taurus at 27º. This transit will likely hit us financially, relationally or both. In this position, Venus in Aquarius is ruled by Uranus in Taurus, and Uranus in Taurus is ruled by Venus in Aquarius - the planets are in what is known as mutual reception. Planets that would otherwise have different goals, (Venus usually wants connection and Uranus usually wants freedom) in this condition aid in achieving each other’s aims. The aspect is still a square, creating some sort of challenge or confrontation in matters of love or money, but solutions are easier to find due to this helpful mutual reception circumstance. Sudden romantic encounters, new opportunities, disruptions, unconventional pursuits, etc. are likely to interrupt plans, but could open doors to new possibilities. Stay open to pivoting. Changes can be surprising. In mutual reception, these changes can prove to be a welcome blessing for seemingly unrelated reasons. Where are you holding on too tight? 

On February 10, Venus enters Pisces until March 6. This is a lovely transit, as Venus is exalted in Pisces, a sign she highly favors. Pisces represents the dream realms, fantasy, spirituality, the muses, etc. and Venus is the planet of love, beauty, money, and relationships. We are more inclined to indulge in pleasure and daydreaming. Our relationships can become more whimsical, fantastical and romantic - and so can our yearning, longing, and desire to find a ‘higher’ love. Creativity levels rise. We sway toward empathy and noticing the beauty of life itself in all of its interconnectedness. The shadow of Venus in Pisces lends itself to escape through pleasure. Intoxication or daydreaming so as to avoid reality, boundaries, or presence. Tune into the elements of universal love, spirituality, oneness, etc. that you connect personally with, that bring you joy and pleasure most in order to channel this transit effectively and with balance - because this is a welcome and juicy energy during an overall very astrologically chaotic time.

On February 12, Mercury conjuncts the North Node in Pisces at 9º. Important messages and information can land today. This transit can illuminate ideas and update strategies on how to move forward towards our goals. Downloads, significant communications and the appearance of propositions and agreements. Updating terms. The mental plane is activated and sharp. A great day for research. A solid day to keep a pen an pad handy or the notes or voice memo apps open on your phone. The universe is sending important signals and clues. Are you picking them up?
