Gemini | Pisces Season 2026
The Universal Overlay
Pisces Season | February 18 - March 20
A dissolution arrives—gentle, inevitable, like ice becoming water becoming mist. After Aquarius's electric revolution, we surrender the fight entirely. Winter approaches its end, and with it comes a strange exhaustion, a beautiful unraveling. Pisces Season dissolves the boundaries between self and other, dreaming and waking, matter and spirit. What if nothing is separate? What if it's all one vast ocean? This is the season of dissolution and compassion, where we release our grip on everything we've been holding—the identity, the story, the year itself—and float in the cosmic waters that connect all things.The energy shifts from revolutionary to receptive. Where Aquarius detached to see patterns, Pisces merges until there are no patterns, no distinctions, only feeling. There's a mystical quality here, porous and permeable, that makes everything more tender. We move from the collective mind to the collective heart, from future visions to timeless presence. Pisces doesn't innovate or analyze—it absorbs, empathizes, becomes. We're no longer conduits for change; we become vessels for whatever wants to move through us, whether that's grief, ecstasy, or divine revelation.This season asks us to release everything the year has made of us. If the previous months built us into someone—more balanced, transformed, wise, disciplined, awakened—winter's final act whispers: Who are you when you let all of that go? What remains when nothing remains? The demand becomes paradoxical: be nobody, feel everything, surrender completely. Pisces sees through the illusion of separateness and recognizes that your pain is my pain, your joy is my joy, your story is our story. This can feel overwhelming, like drowning, yet it's truly grace. The mystic doesn't transcend suffering; they hold space for all of it, the beauty and the unbearable alike.As winter releases its hold and spring whispers at the edges, those who live between worlds feel suddenly at home. The pressure to be coherent, boundaried, productive—all of it melts away like the last snow. Those who need definition may feel lost in Pisces's fog, unmoored by its refusal to distinguish between imagination and reality, between self-care and self-sacrifice. Where do you fall? Perhaps you're learning that strength sometimes looks like softness, that endings are just dissolutions into new beginnings. Pisces doesn't offer clarity—it offers the holy confusion of not knowing where you end and the universe begins.Surrender to the drift. Let yourself be moved by beauty, by sorrow, by the unnamed longing that lives at the edges of everything. Practice radical compassion—for yourself, for strangers, for the wounded world. Create art, music, poetry; let something move through you without needing to understand it. Honor your need to escape, to dream, to dissolve—it's not weakness, it's permeability to the sacred. Forgive what you can, release what you cannot. Most of all, trust the season's holy dissolution. Its wisdom isn't linear—it's oceanic. What you release now becomes the compost for spring's rebirth. The astrological year is ending. Let it. Let yourself end too, so something new can be born from the depths.Your Seasonal Theatre

How to Read Your Horoscopes
Each season tells a story through layers of unfolding.
The Sun illuminates one area of your life while Earth grounds the opposite—creating an axis of reach and depth, like a theme in a great story. Together, they set the stage for your season's narrative.
The ruling planet acts as the protagonist, showing where the story comes alive. Its position reveals the specific scene playing out within your season's larger theme.
Your yearly seed—planted at your sign's new moon—moves through its own season of maturity, creating an anchor point you can push against for growth.
And finally, the season's light casts you in a particular role, shaping how others perceive and call upon your natural gifts—a side note to your main journey, but worth noticing.
Together, these layers form the living theater of your season.
Gemini: The Leader Descends to the Roots
Pisces Season illuminates your 10th house of public authority and professional calling—but this isn't strategic ambition. Pisces brings intuitive leadership, the kind of career work that follows inner knowing rather than external metrics, where your professional contribution becomes an act of faith. Yet Virgo Earth anchors you through your 4th house of home, soul, and private foundation. You're discovering that real authority flows from interior truth, that your most powerful work in the world requires you to first tend what's unresolved at your base, to let your public offering be shaped by your private honesty. Think of Moana—her grandmother dying, telling her "go inside the cave" before she can sail across the ocean. Her public calling to restore Te Fiti's heart only becomes possible after she's descended into ancestral memory, after she's honest about who her people truly are. Leadership deepens when it's rooted in soul work.
Jupiter in your Cancer 2nd house sets the scene as one of emotional expansion in self-worth. Like Moana discovering the fleet of boats her ancestors hid, realizing her worth isn't in being the perfect chief's daughter but in her voyaging blood—you're learning that your resources grow through feeling, through valuing what you've inherited emotionally. Jupiter asks: What if the scene requires you to measure your worth not by what you've achieved but by what you're willing to feel? What if your greatest professional asset is your capacity for tenderness?
Your Seed's Season of Maturity
Your yearly seed has reached its autumn equinox—a time when growth finds cooperation and relational balance. Just as the 10th house asks you to step into visible professional responsibility, your seed has you anchored in trusted counsel and mirrors that guide your integrity. The tension creates torque: your inner development craves collaborative reflection and partnership precisely as you're being asked to lead with singular, spiritually-guided vision. Push against this anchor—let the relationships that ground you give you courage to follow your intuition, let the voices you trust be the foundation for your faithful leadership.
A note on how you're cast: While you navigate this journey between intuitive authority and soul foundation, Pisces Season sees your Gemini nature through its 4th house lens—as the nurturer, the one who can create emotional sanctuary through words and presence. Don't be surprised if others seek you out for comfort or ask you to help them feel safe enough to be vulnerable. This isn't your professional work right now, but it's care you naturally offer.
Virgo Full Moon (Total Lunar Eclipse), March 3rd
Tend to the depth and care you need in terms of home, self-care, and imagination. What nourishes your refined sense of grounding, stability through systems, and your need for a productive home?
Pisces New Moon, March 18th
Set new goals that help you align with your compassionate aspirations, dreamy authority, and artistic mastery. Step up to pressures to help new inner seeds activate and honor your past year’s accomplishments around healing integrity.
Your Archetypal Journey | The Trickster
Mercury in Aquarius & Pisces (9th & 10th Houses)
The planet that rules your sign gives you an archetype—a leading character flavor. This planet is a central part of how you show up and your personal agenda. We go on journeys in the skin of our archetypes, like leading characters in books and films. Your ruler, Mercury, is the Trickster, the Coyote, the Cosmic Messenger.
While the planet ruling the season may be on the main stage, it only takes center stage for the duration of the season. In contrast, your ruling planet is always active for you, even if as a subplot or a supporting character during a season. I like to track your planet’s journey, much like a hero/heroine’s journey unfolds, by observing its synodic period in relation to Earth.
