February 23 - March 1, 2026
The New Moon in Pisces on February 25 marks the start of a lunar cycle operating in the terrain of imagination, spirituality, and endings. Pisces closes the zodiac -- this lunation is not for launching aggressive projects but for planting seeds in internal ground. Saturn in Aries forms a semi-sextile to this New Moon, adding a note of realism: dream, but with structure.
Venus in Pisces conjunct Neptune on February 27 is the quintessential romantic transit, but also the most prone to idealization. In relationships: what you feel this week is real, but the narrative you build around it may not be. Separating genuine emotion from fantasy is the work of this configuration.
Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius are in territory that asks them to do what they like least: wait. Aries has Saturn in its sign pressing for structured patience -- the New Moon in Pisces activates your 12th house and the work is internal, not external. Leo receives this lunation in the area of shared resources and intimacy: new financial or emotional agreements need time to crystallize. Sagittarius feels the New Moon in the home and roots house -- decisions about housing or family begin to take shape.
Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn can capitalize on this New Moon energy with more ease. Taurus receives the Venus-Neptune conjunction in the community and network house: connections that seem casual have significant potential. Virgo feels the New Moon directly on the relationship axis -- a new cycle in personal or professional partnerships opens. Capricorn finds the lunation in the communication house: ideas you have been processing internally are ready to be articulated.
Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius operate with some ambiguity this week. Gemini receives the New Moon in the career and public purpose house: new professional directions are sensed but do not yet have concrete form. Libra benefits enormously from Venus conjunct Neptune -- in your health and daily work house, finding beauty and meaning in routine is not escapism, it is medicine. Aquarius has the New Moon in the money and values house: a new financial approach begins to form.
Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces have the most potent week. Pisces receives the New Moon in its own sign -- this is your annual reset, use it with clear intention. Cancer feels Mars in its sign forming supportive aspects: the intuitive action you take this week has positive long-term consequences. Scorpio receives the lunation in the creativity and pleasure house: artistic, romantic, or self-expression projects have the most fertile ground of the year.
