Aries Weekly Horoscope
For the week of: Feb 23, 2026 - Mar 01, 2026
You may find yourself feeling rather out of touch with reality this week, Aries, although that doesn’t need to be a bad thing. This theme comes into play on the 26th, as messenger Mercury begins a retrograde tour in Pisces and your 12th House of Endings where it will be backing up until March 20th, scrambling messages and crossing wires everywhere it goes. The more you attempt to push against this energy the harder it will be to get things done, so instead of trying to forge ahead with new projects or new ambitions, focus on returning to things from the past that could use another looksee or a bit of improvement; you never know what could turn to gold once you’ve blown off the dust. At times it could feel like you are trying to download signals from the Universe, unable to decipher any of them, and at others you might feel like you’ve got no control over anything because people keep doing things without asking you. The best solution is to go with the flow and avoid committing to anything that will require more than the simplest effort.
The next day could be quite shocking; on the 27th, your ruler Mars will form a tense square to radical Uranus, stirring up the energy around you and sending surprises your way at the speed of light. Mars is in Aquarius and your 11th House of Social Networks, while Uranus is in Taurus and your income sector, so you may feel pulled in several different directions all at once. You will want to be careful during this transit, because Mars represents our actions while Uranus is all about throwing a curve-ball our way, so things are much more prone to going haywire, not least because Mercury is also retrograde. Mars can make you a bit aggressive or accident-prone, so do everything with a touch of patience and tact if you can manage it. Uranus is nearly done with its seven-year tour of Taurus, so the good news is that it is highly unlikely you will ever experience this exact alignment in these sectors ever again.
On the 28th, Mercury will align with loving Venus in your dreamy 12th House, which could feel like a sprinkling of fairy dust over your endeavors. Someone may emerge from behind the scenes to give you a special boost up, or perhaps you receive some special news from out of the blue that adds a wonderful touch to everything. Of course, with Mercury still retrograde, whatever happens will likely involve someone or something which has already been in development for some time, so instead of expecting to forge ahead with something exciting, focus on what is already in the picture. An old flame could also emerge from out of the blue, so don’t be shocked if your romantic past comes back for a second-look.
