Even though we are a few weeks removed from the Saturn-Neptune conjunction of Feb 20, 2026 at 0 degrees Aries, we are still in the window of that conjunction.
Saturn and Neptune will remain about 10 degrees from each other throughout the rest of 2026 and get about 6 1/2 degrees from each other in late November and through December this year. This means that the astrological influence of this conjunction is still present.
Going back to 2025 when both Neptune and Saturn entered Aries for the first time we saw the early signs of what was to come this year. Neptune moved into Aries on March 30, 2025 and Saturn into Aries on May 24, 2025, getting within a degree of each other in June, July and August before separating again. We saw the 12-day conflict with Iran in June and the first major push to release the Epstein Files during that time.
However, the issues continued through September-January, persisting in various ways and not dropping out of our conscious fields.
With both Neptune, then Saturn moving back into Aries on Jan 26, 2026 and Feb 13, 2026 respectively, both of those issues stormed back in a greater way, especially with new war with Iran.
The last 2 times we experienced Saturn and Neptune conjunct, Iran has had a major change in the head of the government, just like this year. In 1989, the first Ayatollah passed away and in 1953, the president of Iran was overthrown by a covert British-US operation to install the Shah of Iran. Both of those were during Saturn-Neptune conjunctions.
When in comes to the Epstein FIles, it relates to subject matter of secrets being revealed involving hidden groups, clubs and other gatherings (usually rooted in elements of truth that takes form and spurs various conspiracy theories). In 1953 this related to the second Red Scare (arguably at its height) of searching for Soviet spies, then wound down within 1-2 years. And in 1989, it was the “Satanic Panic”, which wasn’t limited to 1989 but essentially reached one of its final stages during that year.
I suspect both the Epstein Files and the Iran War to continue (in various forms) with the Saturn-Neptune conjunction period throughout 2026 and into 2027. This doesn’t mean we’ll be fighting the war continuiously every day or that the Epstein Files will be in the news each day either. However, all of this doesn’t take into account the upcoming Uranus in Gemini transit beginning on April 25, 2026 with a potent Mars-Uranus conjunction on July 3/4, 2026. Uranus’ return to Gemini marks a critical period for the United States and hence the world. It is likely to change how this Saturn-Neptune conjunction period is expressed.
All of this reflects a greater pattern of Saturn-Neptune that also involves the other hard aspects of oppositions and squares. In fact, there was a forming square between Saturn and Neptune when the Iranian Revolution took place and the first Ayatollah came into power, then dozens of American hostages were taken in Iran.
The events that take place during the Saturn-Neptune conjunctions (and oppositions and squares) have lasting impact on humanity’s psyche, causing powerful ripples throughout the planet. There are other events surrounding Russia that are strongly tied in with Saturn-Neptune hard aspects as well. There is certainly more that can be written about here and I plan to share more in the coming weeks and months.
