February 11 ~ February 25

Fire Horse Ignition: Saturn enters Aries on Friday, February 13, and moves ahead of Neptune, piercing Neptune’s veil by Monday, February 20. As Saturn and Neptune merge, a new archetype is forged within the collective psyche—you are becoming the spiritual warrior required to live from instinctual faith rooted in Soul knowing rather than illusion.

This rare ignition at the first degrees of Aries opens a rebirth through your unique doorway. Here is how this initiation unfolds for you.

Aries, your ruling planet, Mars, is the primal spark that ignites action, instinct, and forward momentum. Mars governs how you assert yourself and how you respond when life calls you to move first and think later. During eclipse periods, your Mars instinct becomes especially important because eclipses accelerate evolution and often demand decisive movement.

The Ring of Fire eclipse on Tuesday, February 17, opens a two-week portal of rapid change and initiation. On this very same day, the Year of the Fire Horse begins, amplifying the element that naturally courses through your veins—fire—granting you courage, instinct, and hard-wired drive. It supports risk-taking and the willingness to step into unfamiliar terrain with confidence.

Eclipses function as evolutionary gateways—moments when the Soul presses forward quickly, removing hesitation and revealing where new courage is required. For you, Aries, this portal activates your natural warrior impulse, encouraging you to trust your instincts and move toward what feels alive, urgent, and authentic.

Adding another powerful layer, your ruling planet Mars is traveling through Aquarius throughout this eclipse window, remaining there until Tuesday, March 3, when the Full Moon eclipse in Virgo closes the cycle. Mars in Aquarius electrifies your instinctual nature, charging your actions like a live wire. You have more voltage at your disposal than your Soul may know what to do with. Mars energy thrives when it is directed consciously. Opportunities may arrive suddenly, while old frustrations or suppressed anger may also surface, asking to be released through some truth-out talkin’ and healthy assertion. Anything held in may surge forward like a rocket. Direct your fire wisely—and safely.

To balance this intense electrical charge, look to the Sun, Mercury, and Venus traveling through Pisces. Pisces offers the balm that cools overheated circuitry and softens sharp edges. It encourages you to pause, listen to your intuition, and allow compassion to guide your decisions. This is the difference between rising through inspired action and burning out through reactive force. Let Pisces help you soften so your fire can sustain rather than consume.

This eclipse has the potential to be profoundly life-changing for you, Aries. It can initiate changes that have never been able to occur before. Uranian energy breaks stagnation, opening pathways that once seemed impossible and calling you toward new alliances, new visions, and a radical redefinition of what it means to live fiercely in the now.

Trust your internal ignition, and you will become a catalyst not only within your own life but in the lives of those around you.

Fire Horse Invocation

As this year ignites new courage and forward momentum, remember:

You are safe.
You have always been safe.

You are a Soul
steering a bone vessel
forged from stardust and memory.

Ride boldly.

Personal Message from Kristin

If the energy within my words feels different — more urgent, more direct, more on fire — it is because I am in the midst of completing a long-awaited project on the female warrior, the Amazon. In these pages I trace her fierce energy as she moves through every sign of the zodiac, revealing how she lives and breathes in each of us, with an intention to awaken the wild feminine within you. The aim is for you to harness the courage necessary to fearlessly go after what you came here to be and do. This work has been years in the making, and I look forward to sharing it with you on April 26, 2026.
