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.

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
