Our first eclipse of 2026 will be an annular “ring of fire” solar eclipse on February 17, 2026 and it will occur at 28 degrees and 56 minutes Aquarius. At least a partial eclipse will be seen by the Southern parts of Africa and South America, Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian Oceans, and Antarctica. This eclipse will affect the high technology industry (and AI), Astrology, humanitarian institutions, issues of rebellion and protest, and things that are different/unique.
For the USA, this eclipse will affect the nation overall since the eclipse chart over Washington DC shows the eclipse is conjunction the Ascendant (although in the twelfth house). It will particularly affect hospitals, prisons and ICE facilities, and behind the scenes issues and affairs. The eclipse will affect the American people as the eclipse is conjunction the Moon in the nation’s (Sibley) chart. It opposes President Trump’s natal Ascendant and will directly affect the President. His partners and enemies will play integral roles. This eclipse could affect his health because the Ascendant is the native’s body (along with personality and appearance). Surprises (and maybe a few shocks) could be in store in all these areas since the eclipse is in square aspect to transiting Uranus. It could forebode some major swings (up and down) of the stock market with Uranus transiting Taurus at the time of the eclipse. Jupiter is located in the fifth house in the chart and should affect the entertainment industry and children in a positive way. Transiting Venus and Mercury trine Jupiter in this chart and is quite helpful. However, there could also be accidents with the eclipse point quincunz transiting Jupiter.
As always, this eclipse will affect you personally if you have planets and/or points conjunct or opposite the eclipse point (only a two degree orb). Those planets or points between 27 degrees Aquarius or Leo and 1 degrees Pisces or Virgo are included. Eclipses are Uranian in nature in that what happens is unexpected, and you might not even be certain as to what is happening for six months. For a solar eclipse, it takes about a year for the event to completely mature. Whether the eclipse is experienced as positive or negative depends on the planet that is conjoined or opposed, its place in your chart, the condition that the planet is in, and whether and how you might have prepared for what is happening (i.e. free will). If you’d like to know if you have planets or points that fall into this range, let me know. For most people, the eclipse will be experienced simply as a New Moon type event. Those are generally felt as the start of something new or a new beginning.
