This month’s planet transits discussed by Marga; “February 2026 is not a month for definitive decisions, but for profound recognition.”

Don’t expect, and you see your whole life becomes a joy. Expect, and your whole life becomes a hell. Expectation is the cause. If you want to change, never start by the effect, start by the cause. Frustration is the effect. You can go on fighting with frustration – nothing will happen, you will become more and more frustrated. Start by the cause, always look for the cause. Whenever you are feeling miserable, go into it and find out where the cause is, and then it is up to you. If you want to drop the effect then avoid the cause; then become aware, more and more aware.”
Osho, The Divine Melody, Ch 2
February promises to be an intense, narrative, and profoundly transformative month.
The transits of the fast-moving planets constantly interact with stable Pluto in Gate 41, Imagination, creating a very clear thread: the theme of desire, inner vision, and the pressure to recognize new possible futures.
The Lunar Nodes continue to define Channel 37–40, Community, throughout the month, between Gate 37, Family, and Gate 40, Liberation. The Channel maintains a constant focus on themes of relationships, belonging, roles, and healthy boundaries, asking us to balance what we give to others and what we keep for ourselves.
Another fundamental element adds to this underlying framework: the Channel of Cycles 53–42, activated by Jupiter in Gate 53, New Beginnings, and Chiron in Gate 42, Increase, will remain active throughout February.
The Channel creates a collective climate oriented toward the completion and maturation of what has remained open. The drive is not to begin new cycles, but to close chapters, complete processes, and allow experiences to reach their natural fulfillment.
The month begins under the influence of the final degrees of Channel 33–13, The Prodigal, with Earth in Gate 33, Retreat, and Venus in Gate 13, Listening, supporting the collective process: stories from the past are remembered and shared, and there is a natural need to rework memories before truly moving forward.
On this structural foundation, February’s most dynamic activations come into play.
From February 2 to 5, the Channel of Sensitivity 19–49 is activated by Mars in Gate 19, Approach, and Venus and Mercury in Gate 49, Revolution. These days bring a strong focus on emotional needs and relational boundaries. The dynamics of closeness and expectation emerge clearly, and it becomes clear where pacts and agreements need to be redefined.
The Channel of Recognition, 30–41, between Gate 30, Desire, and Gate 41, Imagination, where, remember, Pluto is fixed throughout the year and beyond, activates repeatedly throughout most of the month through a series of successive planetary encounters. It is the true thread of February and pushes us to become aware of what awaits birth.
Its main activations occur in this sequence.
From February 4 to 6, Mercury enters Gate 30, and the mind is charged with emotion and future vision. Conversations and insights revolve around expectations and unrealized possibilities.
From February 6 to 10, it is Venus‘s turn to meet Pluto, once again activating Channel 30–41. Relationships and values are permeated by a fertile emotional tension. What we desire is no longer abstract: it begins to take shape.
From February 13 to 18, the Sun enters Gate 30, offering us the energetic heart of the month and a Valentine’s Day – for those for whom it is an important occasion – full of emotion and anticipation. For others, Pluto‘s imaginative pressure finds expression through solar vitality. A collective sense that a new chapter is in the making, even if it is not yet definable, is welling up.
On February 17, the Moon briefly transits Gate 30, amplifying the emotional intensity of this process for a day.
From February 24 until the end of the month and beyond, Mars enters Gate 30, and the energy of desire now receives a more dynamic and concrete push. The pressure to transform dreams into experience becomes more tangible and operational.
This long chain of activations makes February a deeply emotional and imaginative month. The Channel of Recognition brings clear questions: what do I truly desire, what future is calling me, what old stories can no longer contain me?
The big risk? Loading yourself with so much expectation that you end up in frustration. A time of great temptation lies ahead for those who meditate…
Be careful to hold the helm steady! And the witness too!
From February 24 until the end of the month, also the Sun and Earth transit Gates 37–40, further strengthening the theme of the Lunar Nodes. Issues of relationship, belonging, and responsibility return to the forefront. Agreements, collaborations, and bonds come into sharper focus.
In summary, February 2026 is not a month for definitive decisions, but for profound recognition.
It is a month to complete unfinished business through the influence of Channel 53–42, to reexamine relationships and boundaries thanks to Channel 37–40, and to listen to your authentic desires through the almost constant presence of Channel 30–41.
The collective field vibrates between pasts to be concluded, bonds to be renegotiated, and futures to be imagined. In the meantime, everyone is invited to remain present to what is unfolding, allowing new directions to take shape with patience and awareness.
Have a lovely month!
