Weekly Mundane Astrological Climate - Week of February 2 to 8, 2026

Introduction

You can view global aspects for any day and time using the Transits application, in simple chart mode after deselecting angular aspects in the form. Positions and aspects are calculated from Monday to Sunday at 12:00 PM UT.

The orb for major planetary aspects is set at three degrees. For the true North Node and Lilith, true positions are used. Minor aspects are excluded from interpretation due to their limited influence.

Planetary aspects shape the global context, influencing politics, economics, and social trends. Lunar aspects are not included here, as their brevity makes them too fleeting for a weekly analysis.

The same applies to the North Node, Lilith, and Chiron, whose influence through aspects remains insufficiently demonstrated.

This is not a personal horoscope but a form of mundane astrology highlighting planetary influence on a collective scale.

The week of February 2 to 8, 2026 unfolds within a more streamlined climate in terms of short-term aspects, with only two fast-moving configurations, while the Aquarian dominance remains very pronounced. The overall rhythm becomes clearer and more coherent, emphasizing a few central dynamics rather than an accumulation of scattered stimuli. This relative aspectual sobriety allows deeper processes to express themselves more clearly, particularly those linked to the transformation of collective frameworks and the redefinition of priorities.

The concentration of personal planets in Aquarius reinforces a mental, forward-looking, and resolutely collective tone, oriented toward networks, ideas, and reform-oriented projects. Tensions involving Uranus introduce sharper sequences, marked by sudden questioning and necessary adjustments, without undermining the overall coherence of the climate. At the same time, Neptune's recent entry into Aries begins to infuse collective ideals with a more impulsive, will-driven dynamic, still in a phase of structuring.

The Moon, moving successively through Leo, Virgo, Libra, and then Scorpio, modulates the emotional atmosphere in a contrasting way, alternating between self-assertion, the need for order, the search for balance, and an intensification of feelings. This progression accompanies a context in which issues are defined with greater clarity, leaving more room for assimilation, for observing power dynamics, and for the maturation of choices, within a climate that is less scattered yet still demanding.

Planetary Positions and Aspects – Short-Term

Planetary Positions – Fleeting Influences

  • The Sun, from 13°39' to 19°44' Aquarius, moves through Aquarius throughout the week, consolidating a climate of openness, detachment, and forward-looking thinking. The emphasis shifts toward ideas, networks, collective dynamics, and the search for original solutions, favoring decisions based on principles rather than emotional reflexes. This tone can also reinforce a reform-oriented mindset and a desire for clarification, with positions that are more straightforward and less inclined toward superficial compromise.
  • Mercury, from 22°08' Aquarius to 2°42' Pisces, accelerates the flow of information and the pace of exchanges, first within a highly conceptual Aquarius, then within more intuitive Pisces. Until Friday, reasoning favors new ideas, logic, network-based strategies, and sharp debates, sometimes at the expense of sensitivity. From Saturday, February 7, Mercury's entry into Pisces clearly shifts the mental climate toward imagination, diffuse perceptions, and the search for meaning, bringing more inspired thinking, but also greater openness to approximations.
  • Venus, from 20°04' to 27°35' Aquarius, continues its progression through Aquarius and highlights a freer, more selective way of relating, increasingly based on intellectual rapport. Shared ideas, group life, and the need for space gain importance, with a search for connections that respect individual autonomy. On the level of collective values, the emphasis is on innovation, less conventional choices, and a more open approach to emotional, social, or economic agreements.
  • Mars, from 7°54' to 12°36' Aquarius, advances through Aquarius and sets a more reactive, more experimental pace of action, oriented toward collective goals. Energy is readily applied to breaking away from patterns that have become too rigid, which can heighten impatience with constraints and the desire to get straight to the point. The climate gains in intellectual assertiveness, with a need to act according to a logic of independence, while favoring initiatives aligned with a forward-looking vision.
  • The Moon, from 21°10' Leo to 8°27' Scorpio, moves successively through Leo, Virgo, Libra, and then Scorpio, clearly modulating the atmosphere as the days unfold. In Leo, at the beginning of the week, it reactivates self-expression, pride, and the need to stand out, with more demonstrative reactions. Its passage through Virgo, starting on Tuesday, February 3, makes the climate more pragmatic, more critical, and more organization-focused, before entering Libra on Thursday, February 5, which favors the search for balance, relational adjustments, and a sense of proportion. The entry into Scorpio on Sunday, February 8, then intensifies emotions, issues of control, and protective reflexes, with a sharper perception of power dynamics and unspoken undercurrents.

Planetary Aspects of the Week – Short-Term Climate

  • Mercury (Aquarius) square Uranus (Taurus) introduces a more unstable and nervous mental climate, marked by sudden shifts in tone or logic. Exchanges can become more abrupt and ideas more sharply defined, with a tendency toward challenge, sudden stances, and impulsive decisions. This aspect encourages intellectual innovation and constructive questioning, but it also heightens impatience, mental scattering, and the risk of misunderstandings caused by reactions that are too rapid or insufficiently thought through.
  • Venus (Aquarius) square Uranus (Taurus) puts the needs for freedom, novelty, and detachment in tension with demands for security, stability, and continuity. On a relational and collective level, this aspect can bring abrupt adjustments, sudden changes of direction, or unexpected distancing, especially when existing agreements become too restrictive. The climate favors independence and originality in choices, while also potentially generating emotional, financial, or social volatility, with balances that are more fragile and less predictable.

Planetary Positions and Aspects – Longer-Term

Planetary Positions – Medium-Term Climate

  • Mars, from 7°54' to 12°36' Aquarius, moves through Aquarius and establishes a more reactive, more independent dynamic of action, clearly oriented toward experimentation. Collective energy readily mobilizes around original initiatives, innovative projects, or positions that express a desire to break away from frameworks that have become obsolete. This configuration strengthens the need for autonomy, intellectual boldness, and quick responses, while potentially intensifying impatience with delays, compromises deemed unnecessary, and resistance to change.
  • Jupiter, from 17°12'Я to 16°35'Я Cancer, continues its retrograde motion and maintains a climate of review and refocusing around issues of protection, security, and collective cohesion. Expansionary dynamics give way to a more cautious reflection on family, social, and community foundations, with increased attention paid to what needs to be consolidated or adjusted. This phase favors repair, stabilization, and the strengthening of existing bases, rather than the pursuit of rapid growth or immediate results.
  • True Lilith, from 24°47'Я to 7°23'Я Sagittarius, retrogrades through Sagittarius and highlights tensions related to beliefs, ideologies, and truth narratives. Certainties may be put to the test, with a more inward questioning of convictions, moral positions, and dominant collective narratives. This dynamic supports deep critical work by revealing inconsistencies, dogmatic excesses, or ideological blind spots, and invites a more authentic repositioning around issues of meaning, justice, and long-term vision.

Planetary Positions – Long-Term Climate

  • Saturn, from 28°47' to 29°24' Pisces, moves very slowly through Pisces and continues to structure collective frameworks at a deep level. The climate emphasizes responsibility, coherence, and the solidity of long-term commitments, with increased attention paid to the concrete viability of projects and the clarity of assumed duties. As Saturn approaches the end of the sign, it heightens the need for assessment, clarification, and the definitive shaping of what has been built, recalling the necessity of relying on realistic and sustainable foundations.
  • Uranus, from 27°28'Я to 27°28' Taurus, marks an important turning point by turning direct on Wednesday, February 4. This change of motion gradually reactivates transformation dynamics related to material, economic, and environmental domains, following a phase of readjustment and questioning of existing models. The collective climate may thus begin to show signs of renewed momentum, concrete innovation, or more decisive choices, with a stronger willingness to translate recent realizations into tangible and applicable changes.
  • Neptune, from 0°11' to 0°21' Aries, advances across the very first degrees of Aries and confirms the opening of a new long-term cycle, marked by a shift from a logic of dissolution to a dynamic of impulse. The collective climate remains permeated by uncertainty and vagueness, yet it is now accompanied by a clearer need for direction, momentum, and the affirmation of ideals. This position symbolizes a transitional phase in which inspiration gradually seeks to turn into initiative, even if the outlines of this direction are still taking shape.
  • Pluto, from 3°45' to 3°56' Aquarius, continues the installation of deep structural transformations affecting modes of collective organization, networks, and balances of power. The societal changes underway are part of an irreversible long-term dynamic, with an increasing challenge to systems that have become obsolete. The climate remains marked by a demand for lucidity, strategic repositioning, and the reinvention of collective frameworks.
  • Chiron, from 23°02' to 23°13' Aries, accompanies a collective process of repair related to self-assertion, initiative, and the capacity to act. The climate brings to light vulnerabilities connected to action, confidence, and identity, while encouraging a more direct awareness of these sensitive areas. This dynamic supports the gradual integration of the wounds revealed, with the possibility of transforming vulnerabilities into levers for growth and maturation.
  • The True North Node, from 9°03'Я to 9°08' Pisces, shifts in dynamics by turning direct on Wednesday, February 4. At the beginning of the week, its retrograde phase extends a climate of assimilation and revision of symbolic reference points, with a tendency to reconsider ideals, collective motivations, and the direction given to recent choices. The return to direct motion then gradually reactivates the evolutionary axis, favoring a clearer orientation of meaning and priorities, while preserving the Piscean tone of sensitivity, discernment, and the search for coherent inspiration.

Long-Term Planetary Aspects – Enduring Trends

For the week of February 2 to 8, 2026, the sky retains the core of its long-term configurations, with a notable shift linked to Neptune's entry into Aries, which alters the underlying tone without breaking overall coherence. The Saturn–Neptune conjunction, now established between Pisces and Aries, continues to reshape collective reference points by seeking to give more concrete momentum to ideals still in the process of formation. The major currents between slow-moving planets sustain a structuring background dynamic, blending realism, inspiration, and gradual adaptation, still without the support of the now inactive Jupiter–Saturn trine. Harmonious exchanges involving Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto continue to accompany gradual mutations, with a stronger willingness to initiate change while avoiding abrupt disruptions. The overall picture forms a climate of active transition, anchored in the long term.

  • Saturn (Pisces) sextile Uranus (Taurus) supports a gradual evolution of structures by combining continuity with pragmatic innovation. This aspect facilitates the adaptation of existing frameworks to ongoing changes and encourages controlled modernization.
  • Saturn (Pisces) conjunction Neptune (Aries) marks a phase of deep reorganization of symbolic and institutional reference points, now colored by a more initiating and forward-moving impulse. It confronts ideals with concrete realities while seeking to give clearer direction and momentum to what had previously remained diffuse or uncertain.
  • Uranus (Taurus) sextile Neptune (Aries) links innovation and inspiration within a more proactive dynamic. This aspect encourages creative solutions adapted to collective needs and supports translating intuition and vision into practical, forward-looking change.
  • Neptune (Aries) sextile Pluto (Aquarius) acts on collective consciousness by infusing transformation with a more assertive and initiating tone. It supports gradual inner change and the integration of new social paradigms, with a stronger emphasis on activation rather than passive adaptation.

Conclusion

The week of February 2 to 8, 2026 concludes with a sense of gradual reactivation, following a phase more focused on clarification and adjustment. The shifts in dynamics occurring during the week, notably the return to direct motion of Uranus and the North Node, help restart certain processes that had remained on hold, without triggering an immediate break. The overall climate gains in direction and continuity, with a feeling of steady resumption rather than abrupt reversal.

With the Moon in Scorpio at the end of the period, the atmosphere intensifies on an emotional and psychological level, emphasizing issues of control, power, and depth. Positions tend to crystallize more strongly, with a sharper perception of underlying motivations, resistance, and areas of tension. This intensification encourages a more lucid reading of the dynamics at play, while calling for measured handling of reactions and emotional responses.

In the background, the still-active long-term aspects underscore that these movements are part of a large-scale collective transformation, now colored by a more pronounced willingness to initiate change. The week thus closes on a tone of active and oriented transition, blending lucidity, contained intensity, and preparation for developments set to unfold over the long term, well beyond immediate events.
