If an effort to find acceptable compromises may have emerged in August 2025 and extended into November, it has unfortunately run into the will of the parties involved to keep control, to hold on to power. In 2026, there will be no more playing dice with the world's fate. A collective impulse is beginning to rise and make itself heard. Starting on February 20, 2026, Saturn and Neptune will join forces in Aries! This will no longer be about patching up the old to make something new. The conjunction of these two planets in Aries will urge us to take decisive action, to launch a new life cycle built on foundations that may seem uncertain at first but will clarify over time. We'll need to accept, without fear, a few possible cosmic glitches born from the very nature of these two planets. Saturn wants structure, discipline, and tangible progress, while Neptune rules the invisible, the spiritual, and the elusive.

Their union might sow confusion, but it will also spark a wave of renewal. On the global and political level, a battle is likely between the “dinosaurs” of a fading system and the pioneers of a New World yet to be defined. Expect intense tensions between two camps whose values are irreconcilable (in February, and again around July 20). Let's hope that light eventually prevails over shadow. Reading between the lines of an astrological pattern growing denser as the months go by, one might detect a glow at the end of the tunnel, a light guiding us toward greater awareness. It's time to stop obeying absurd, destructive directives and to reclaim our own power, the kind that moves us to send our children not to the battlefield, but to entrust them with our hopes, to make them builders of peace rather than soldiers of war. Even if the first steps toward this new world are uncertain, 2026 should mark a significant turning point.
Climate and Environment
Since 2023 (at least), we've been navigating troubled waters. The planets have often formed dissonant angles, triggering invasive floods, torrential rains, and collapse, of everything. This phase of dissolution reaches its conclusion in 2026. Gradually, by April 2026, the planets will shift into signs associated with air and fire elements. Hardly reassuring, one might say, since this could bring a rise in earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, solar flares, and similar upheavals. It's time to understand that to slow this destructive trend, to counteract the planet's drying out, we must open the floodgates of our hearts. We must stop treating our environment as a resource to exploit and begin to regard it as an ally worthy of respect. These values, still seen by some as detached from reality, will gain strength in 2026. Polluters and overconsumers alike will likely have to rethink their ways. We've heard warnings about the climate emergency for decades. We're told the house is burning, so let's join hands and put out the fire together, instead of waiting for laws that never get enforced. In 2026, change truly begins now.
The Planets
If we are still struggling to give up our old polluting habits, we will likely be forced to do so in 2025, as the risk of pollution, flooding, and landslides does not decrease, particularly in spring and June. Particularly starting in August, as we transition from earth-water to air-fire elements, fires, explosions, and eruptions will multiply.
However, we can hope that the sextile linking Uranus (in Gemini) to Neptune (in Aries) starting at the end of August offers ingenious, even bold solutions to escape disasters rather than endure them. Let’s rely on the dynamics of this aspect to propose alternatives that could finally lighten our debt to the Earth, which we have been accumulating since the industrial era.
Inventions could revolutionize our resource management, with a vision that radically evolves toward long-term considerations and the preservation of our planet. A shift is beginning, potentially opening paths that are far more respectful of our environment. The winds that rise in the second half of the year seem to carry newness and hope, inviting humanity to grow. This will be worth following in 2026, where the path transforms into an avenue.
The stars
Pluto began its journey through Aquarius in 2023 and will not leave this revolutionary sign until 2044, giving ample time to shift from the old toward the new. As the ruling planet of Scorpio, Pluto urges us to shed our old skins irreversibly, much like a caterpillar destined to transform into a butterfly.
Whether individually or collectively, the metamorphosis has begun. Until now, the rigid cocoon resisted pressure, but in 2026, the shell cracks. We are pushed out of our comfort zones and encouraged to spread our wings. Not without loss or upheaval, but from 2026 onward, we finally have the chance to escape the stagnation of an Old World that has run its course. It will be up to us to elevate our perspective and raise the level of debate.
Neptune will leave Pisces on January 26, 2026. Although this planet thrives in its home sign, it has often fueled illusions and falsehoods more than it has illuminated our path. Around February 20, under Saturn's influence, Neptune may point us toward a new direction, though the route and contours will still need to be defined. Clarity will emerge, but only if we shift our perspective and view of the world.
Opportunities to adjust our vision will present themselves multiple times, notably in July (around the 15th and 20th), even if this awakening triggers resistance from the old that refuses to vanish. More humanistic ideals will gradually assert themselves and influence the collective around July 25 and again on September 16.
Uranus made a brief tour through Gemini between July 7 and November 8, 2025, leaving a mark on many minds. The zodiac's free spirit initiated the momentum of upcoming changes, and in 2026, it will fully unleash its energy. There will be no turning back. Early in the year (around January 20), Uranus may make minor compromises with remnants of the past, but from summer 2026 onward, it will clear the way, opening doors to new horizons to invent and achieve.
We collectively cross a milestone. Whether through a rise in consciousness or other significant events, we step decisively into a new day and a new world. Key dates to remember include around July 15, 18, and 21, as well as November 29, 2026.
Saturn leaves Pisces on February 14, 2026, having tried, around January 20, to preserve certain old models capable of channeling the overwhelming desire for absolute change. On February 14, Saturn enters Aries. Not entirely comfortable in this fiery, headstrong sign that charges forward regardless of consequences or taboos, the “great teacher” of the zodiac will nevertheless align with the deeply innovative energies shaping 2026 rather than obstruct them.
After some initial adjustments, Saturn will accompany the movement and may act as a stabilizer or moderator in a rapidly changing world, especially around March 28, when our urge to overturn everything will need to be channeled, and again around August 31, when Saturn's sage guidance will help us make the most of our overflowing enthusiasm.
Jupiter remains in Cancer until June 30, 2026. In this sign, the giant planet brings order and prioritization, though it may not have achieved its goals in 2025. From June 30, 2026, until July 26, 2027, Jupiter shines in Leo. In this solar sign, Jupiter amplifies our desire for pleasure and self-fulfillment, while also encouraging us to expand our horizons, forge a new path, and begin a new chapter of life.
Individually or collectively, around July 20, Jupiter will connect to a more inspired and spiritual vision of human destiny, though it will face stubborn resistance from those determined to preserve their gains, often at the expense of the majority. Yet nothing can hold back Jupiter's momentum: by July 21, it will free us from past constraints, setting the stage for anchoring innovation on solid ground by August 31. The story will continue to unfold.
