On 20 February 2026, Saturn conjuncts Neptune at 0° Aries.
Undoubtedly, this is one of the most important transits of our lifetime – and we don’t need to know astrology to know that the world is changing in ways we’ve never seen before.
Contradictory narratives, confusion about what to trust, and the feeling that the ground continues to slip from beneath our feet are all signs of a deep shift – the slow collapse of old stories, and the opening up of necessary space for new stories to form.
Why is Saturn Conjunct Neptune at 0° Aries so special?
The Saturn-Neptune conjunction is significant in itself, as these two planets meet only once every 36 years, starting a new cycle. Collective ideals, attitudes and myths (Neptune) are translated into Structures, Systems and Living Reality (Saturn). Each cycle rewrites the rules by which our society lives.
But what makes this particular combination so special is its occurrence 0° mesh – The zodiac navel.
Zero degree is the boundary between 360 degrees of accumulated experience and something completely new.
Astronomically, 0° Aries marks the point where the ecliptic crosses the celestial equator.
When the Sun reaches this point, day and night are equal everywhere on Earth. And it is in this moment of perfect balance between day and night, yang and yin, that creation arises.
Ancient cultures were very aware of this Energetic Significance of Equinox.
Stonehenge, along with equinox and solstice temples around the world, is evidence of how important this threshold point Has been in civilizations.
From an astrological perspective, when two slow-moving planets – Saturn and Neptune, the architects of collective reality – align at this navel point, Field has been resetThe slate is wiped clean, and the system becomes receptive completely new possibilities.
0° Aries is different from 2° Aries, 16° Aries, or 24° Taurus – or any of the other 359 degrees of the Zodiac – because once we move through zero, we are already working within an existing story.
Zero aries means no story. That’s where we make it.
Saturn Conjunction with Neptune at 0° Aries – Genesis
What will emerge at this point is not something we can predict or control, and no one has any control over the void. zero is one cosmic egg of pure potentialBefore the form.
That’s why what matters now is not “watching the news.” The stories will keep changing, and looking outward for certainty isn’t the point anyway.
what matters witness the moment yourself – Crossing the Threshold – Being present, attentive, and allowing what is ready to emerge to do so.
