The Bob Marks February 2026 and the World Forecasts
Welcome to my monthly forecasts. These forecasts will help you understand the energies around you. The planets are constantly shifting and the universal energies affect our daily lives
Each month I will guide you through the planetary movements and explain them in detail. Some months will have more astrological events than others but there will always be universal movements that will affect you.
HIGHLIGHTS
This is a Big One for many reasons. Saturn and Neptune will be making a Conjunction. That doesn't happen too often. The last time those two got together was 1989. The Berlin Wall fell. A dictatorship that looked like it would last forever literally dissolved.
It was only a Neptune delusion. Well, Saturn and Neptune are back again. Stronger than ever. They are going to be together in the First Degree of Aries. That is the WORLD AXIS. Anything there affects the whole World. And whatever is coming will be BIG.
There is more. Saturn and Neptune won't be alone. Sixty degrees to one side will be Pluto, planet of EXTREMES. It can give tremendous energy to any other planet it touches. Pluto is already in Aquarius, the sign that likes to turn everything upside-down. How's that been working out for the last year? Calm?
Pluto has 19 more years to go in the sign of Aquarius. The last time Pluto was there, we got the American Revolution, the French Revolution, the Haitian Revolution, and the Industrial Revolution. Alright, maybe that was some sort of fluke. How about the time before that? Pluto also went into Aquarius for 20 years starting in 1531.
That's the year Henry VIII couldn't get a divorce to marry Ann Bolyn. So he took over the Church of England. He had plenty of company though. There was also a Protestant Reformation taking place. There were religious wars all over Europe.
So now Pluto is at it again. This time it has plenty of company from Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. Don't worry though. That forecast is for the World, not you. Individual people can watch their own horoscope. Planets can't.
So check your chart regularly and you will be fine.
WORLD FORECAST Part I
"Forewarned is Forearmed"
There is nothing like a major worldwide disaster to ruin your day. What good does it do to read in your horoscope that “Today is a wonderful time to get out and meet new people” if everyone is being forced into quarantine by a pandemic? We must pay close attention to the Astrology of World Events for our own protection.
Do you think this decade, the 2020’s, has been crazy and chaotic so far? Trust me, we haven’t seen anything yet. Not to worry. Forewarned is Forearmed.
First, Pluto, the planet of extremes, entered Aquarius, the Sign of sudden and unexpected changes, on January 20. The last time Pluto was there was during the late 1700’s when we had the American, French, and Industrial Revolutions. The time before that was the early 1500’s. That one gave us the Protestant Reformation as well as 150 years of religious wars.
Right now, there are several potential wars brewing in the Middle East and Taiwan. Artificial Intelligence is poised to totally change the way we work and live. And Pluto is just beginning a 20 year stay in Aquarius.
"The Attack of the Outer Planets "
If you think this decade of the 2020’s has been wild and crazy, brace yourself. We haven’t seen anything yet. During the next few years, the World will be hit by a Cascade of Astrological events any one of which can turn things upside down and inside out. The most powerful effects will be caused by three outer planets: Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto.
Pluto a planet of power (death and rebirth) is already hitting us. It has entered Aquarius, the sign that likes to turn everything upside-down. Demonstrators are already occupying University campuses all over the country. And this is only a small beginning. The last time Pluto entered Aquarius, we had the American and French Revolutions. The time before that in the fifteen hundreds, the Protestant Reformation ushered in a century of religious warfare. Pluto isn’t just “out with the old; in with the new.” It’s “Let’s completely destroy the old until nothing is left.”
Uranus, planet of sudden and unexpected change, is going through Taurus, a rock-solid sign of stability. The last time that happened was 1936 to 1942. No, Uranus going through Taurus didn’t cause World War II all by itself. But it did contribute to the world-wide instability then, just like it is doing now.
What has Uranus done to the United States over the years? Plenty! It takes Uranus about 84 years to circle the Sun. When it does this, it “returns” to where it was in the birth chart. The first time Uranus returned in America’s chart was 1860. Abe Lincoln won the election and the Southern Stated started to leave the Union. The result a few months later was the Civil War.
The next Uranus Return was in 1944. That’s right. World War II. Both times the nation was fighting for its life. The next Uranus Return for the United States will be right after the Presidential Election in 2028, just 4 years from now. Will History repeat itself? The planets certainly do.
How about Neptune, planets of Dreams and Ideals? It’s now going through Pisces, the sign that it rules. The last time it did that was 1848 to 1861. That was the set-up period for the U.S. Civil War. People’s ideas changed. Then Neptune went into Aries, the sign that rules War, and they decided to fight for those beliefs.
Any one of these planetary transits could cause major upheavals in the world. Over the next decade, we are going to get all three.
What can we do to protect ourselves? Keep a close watch on our own personal horoscopes. As long as we can see what’s coming for ourselves, we can maneuver and come out ahead.
I was reading for a client once who told me: “If you see something bad coming, don’t tell me; I don’t want to know.” My answer to him was: “If you’re driving at night, don’t turn on the headlights. You may see something nasty in the road.”
And that’s what Astrology is for. Like headlights on a car, it helps us see what’s ahead so we can drive safely through our life.
The big problem here is that all these things are going on at the same time. There is too much happening to put in one post. That is why I am making World Forecast a regular feature of this website.
Stay tuned.
