February Forecast

Jupiter was aligned with Fixed Star Castor on January 6th, 2026 – just three days before President Trump launched a special operation to “arrest” the president and first lady of Venezuela. The final touches to that audacious plan were likely put in place  as the Sun transited the opposition to its position on July 4th (America’s ‘birthday’.)

The first week of January has always been important for the USA. Only a few years ago we saw the storming of the Capitol building. An entire Pluto cycle earlier George Washington defeated British forces at the Battle of Princeton. In the 20th century, it was during this week that Alaska became the US’ 49th State whilst two years later, diplomatic relations with Cuba were severed. In 1990, Panama’s Manuel Noriega surrendered.

Jupiter’s alignment with Castor – a Fixed Star in the constellation of Gemini – indicated considerably increased lines of communications. Few would disagree that globally a flurry of diplomatic activity has been visible since the arrest of the Venezuelan President.

Disagreement has been bubbling on and below the surface.

What happens next?

On February 26th Jupiter aligns with Canopus – the second brightest star in the heavens. This Fixed Star is said to be of the nature of Jupiter and this alignment is said to bring both opportunity and success.

Could this be the date when the USA ‘acquires’ Greenland?

February 26th is between the two eclipses (Feb 17th and March 3rd) – a period when the geomagnetic field is altered and- very often – hyper eventful.

Over 26th and 27th trading – negotiating – asteroid Vesta conjoins Mercury (wins a deal) as Venus meets with the USA’s progressed Sun.

As always, we shall see.
