MARS TRANSIT IN AQUARIUS FROM 23rd FEBRUARY TO 2nd APRIL 2026 FOR ALL ASC/MOON SIGN

General Changes and Global Impact

From February 23 to April 2, 2026, Mars—the fiery commander-in-chief planet of action, courage, aggression, and confidence—will transit through Aquarius, a sign ruled by Saturn, where Mars feels uncomfortable and restricted. On top of this, Rahu is already placed in Aquarius, creating the intense and volatile Mars–Rahu conjunction (Angarak Dosha). Because of this combination, the period carries heightened global and personal instability. On a worldwide level, there are strong indications of accidents and destructive events, such as train accidents, aircraft-related incidents, fires, or even earthquakes, where innocent lives may be affected—this makes it a sensitive and risky phase for humanity as a whole.

On an individual level, the results will be mixed. Unemployed people may finally find jobs, and businessmen who were struggling with high investment and low returns may see solutions emerging. Family bonds, especially between parents and children, can improve, bringing emotional closeness. However, this period also brings serious pressure—workload will increase, job and business-related stress will rise, and conflicts with enemies, legal complications, and disputes are possible. The father’s health may become a concern, and marital life may suffer, either due to spouse’s health issues or relationship tensions. Financial matters will require caution, as impulsive decisions under pressure can lead to losses.

Overall, this transit marks a dangerous yet transformative window, especially for those who have Mars–Rahu conjunctions in their birth chart or are running Mars or Rahu Mahadasha/Antardasha, who may feel up to 90% of the impact. For others, the effects may be milder but still noticeable. Globally and personally, this is a time that demands patience, self-control, alertness, and conscious decision-making, before we move into ascendant- and moon-sign–wise detailed predictions.

ARIES

For Aries ascendant and Aries Moon sign, the Mars transit from February 23rd to April 2nd is extremely powerful and highly favorable, as Mars—the ascendant lord—moves into the 11th house, the house of gains, income, fulfillment of desires, and support systems. This transit clearly indicates a phase of financial growth and wish fulfillment. Unemployed Aries natives are very likely to get jobs during this period, and a long-pending dream, desire, or major goal can finally be fulfilled. Earnings from multiple sources are indicated, money matters will improve significantly, and overall financial stability will feel much stronger. This will be a time when Aries natives feel happier, more confident, and more secure about their future.

Support from siblings, friends, and well-wishers will be strong, and any relationship with a friend that had previously deteriorated can now be mended. Since the 11th house is strongly activated, unexpected gains are very likely. If there were ongoing issues in the job, they will start resolving themselves, and businessmen who were struggling with high investments and low returns will finally see relief. Earnings will rise, savings will increase, and financial pressure will reduce noticeably. Mars’ aspects further strengthen this transit: its fourth aspect on the second house boosts savings, its seventh aspect on the fifth house brings gains through speculation and investments, and its eighth aspect on the sixth house helps unemployed people find jobs while also providing relief from diseases, debts, and enemies.

Married Aries natives will notice improved relationships with their children, and overall family harmony will increase. Even though Mars is conjunct with Rahu during this transit, Mars gives very strong results in the 11th house, and for Aries, this conjunction does not cancel the positivity. In fact, the ascendant lord moving to the house of gains produces fantastic outcomes, especially in terms of finances, career growth, and opportunities. The only advice during this period is to recognize and utilize opportunities wisely. Many positive chances will arise, and Aries natives should think carefully, understand them properly, and act decisively without letting opportunities slip away. This is also a good time for those who have been planning a job change for a long time, as the planetary support is strong. Overall, from February 23rd till April 2nd, this Mars transit brings clear financial gains, professional improvement, and fulfillment of desires for Aries ascendant and Moon sign natives.

TAURUS

For Taurus ascendant and Taurus Moon sign, the Mars transit from February 23rd to April 2nd brings mixed and somewhat challenging results, mainly because Mars is a malefic planet for Taurus, ruling the 7th and 12th houses. As Mars transits the 10th house of career, authority, and father, professional pressure increases noticeably. Workload will be high, responsibilities will multiply, and despite putting in sincere effort, the results may not fully match expectations. This can create frustration and a sense of dissatisfaction at the workplace. There may also be concerns related to the father’s health or strain in the relationship with the father, which can add emotional stress alongside professional pressure.

From a career and business perspective, this period demands caution. There can be issues in business dealings and partnerships, and relationships with business partners may deteriorate if communication is not handled carefully. Love life and marital matters may also feel strained, with the spouse’s health or the relationship itself becoming a point of concern. Enemies or competitors may create obstacles, and office politics can increase. Financially, income will still rise, and old investments can give returns, but not to the level Taurus natives may be expecting, which reinforces the theme of effort being high and satisfaction being moderate.

Despite these challenges, there are some supportive aspects of this transit. Mars’ fourth aspect on the ascendant will increase self-confidence and courage, helping Taurus natives stay determined even under pressure. The seventh aspect on the fourth house supports property-related matters, so buying or selling property, purchasing an asset, or even acquiring a vehicle can be beneficial if done carefully. Mars’ eighth aspect on the fifth house improves focus for students, helping them concentrate better on studies and competitive efforts. Overall, while this is not a disastrous period, it is slow, demanding, and testing, requiring patience, maturity, and controlled reactions. Taurus ascendant and Moon sign natives should move cautiously, avoid conflicts in relationships and partnerships, and focus on steady effort rather than expecting immediate rewards.

GEMINI

For Gemini ascendant and Gemini Moon sign, the Mars transit in Aquarius from February 23rd to April 2nd brings mixed and somewhat testing results. Mars transits the ninth house, and for Gemini, Mars is considered a malefic planet as it rules the sixth and eleventh houses. While Mars being the lord of the eleventh house can bring some gains, its lordship of the sixth house creates obstacles when it moves into the ninth house of luck, destiny, and long-distance matters. Because of this dual influence, this period cannot be called fully favorable or fully negative—it will feel uneven, with progress coming alongside delays and pressure.

On the positive side, luck will offer partial support. Financial matters may improve slightly, and Gemini natives may feel that their hard work is at least being noticed, even if the results are not extraordinary. There can be moments of satisfaction at the workplace, and effort will not go completely wasted. However, the negative side is stronger during this transit. There is a high possibility of legal complications, disputes, or unnecessary entanglements, which should be strictly avoided. Financial losses are also possible if decisions are taken hastily. For those running the Mahadasha or Antardasha of Mars, this period becomes especially crucial and difficult, as despite sincere efforts, results may still not materialize, leading to frustration and mental stress.

This is not a favorable time for long-distance journeys or foreign travel. Trips planned during this period may face obstacles, delays, or fail to give desired outcomes. If Gemini natives have applied for a visa or permanent residency during this transit, they should not expect very positive news right now, as Mars as the sixth lord creates hurdles and postponements. Relationships may also feel strained, particularly with siblings or maternal cousins, and misunderstandings can arise. Debts may increase, adding to financial pressure and anxiety. Overall, this is a tough and demanding phase for Gemini ascendant and Moon sign natives. Patience is essential, as this period indicates delays, not denial. Things may move slowly and with resistance, but with perseverance and careful decision-making, the situation can stabilize once this transit passes.

CANCER 

For Cancer ascendant and Cancer Moon sign, the Mars transit in Aquarius from February 23rd till June 2nd—with the most sensitive phase between February 23rd and April 2nd—is challenging and demanding, as Mars moves through the eighth house. Even though Mars is a benefic planet for Cancer as the lord of the fifth house, its placement in the eighth house brings delays, obstacles, sudden disturbances, and health concerns. This period can feel heavy, with progress coming slowly and only after sustained effort. Health needs special attention, as there may be issues related to blood, blood pressure (high or low), minor urinary tract or stomach problems, or discomfort affecting the lower part of the body. The risk of minor accidents or sudden health disturbances also increases, so caution in daily activities is essential.

Emotionally and personally, this transit can strain relationships. Those in a love affair may face misunderstandings or even a breakup, while married individuals—especially those with children—may experience friction or emotional distance with their kids. Mental stress can rise due to the feeling that things are not moving smoothly across different areas of life. Financially and professionally, hurdles and delays may test patience, and outcomes may not match expectations during this phase.

One notable positive is for foreign education. Cancer natives who have applied to overseas universities for a student visa are likely to see approvals, making this transit supportive for academic pursuits abroad. However, beyond this specific advantage, most other areas demand restraint and careful handling. Overall, this is a tough but temporary phase for Cancer ascendant and Moon sign natives. By prioritizing health, avoiding impulsive decisions, and handling relationships with care—especially during the February 23rd to April 2nd window—the intensity can be managed until conditions gradually improve.

LEO

For Leo ascendant and Leo Moon sign, the Mars transit from February 23rd to April 2nd will be challenging on the relationship front, even though Mars itself is a benefic planet for Leo. Mars will transit through the seventh house, and this placement is traditionally not considered favorable, especially for marriage, partnerships, and day-to-day interpersonal harmony. After February 23rd, the spouse’s health may become a matter of concern, and relationships with the spouse can go through stress, arguments, or emotional distance. In some cases, talks of separation or divorce may arise, particularly for those who already have unresolved marital or legal issues going on. This transit demands continuous communication—if dialogue stops, misunderstandings will grow rapidly. Mars in the seventh house makes Leo natives highly aggressive, reactive, and impulsive, where even small issues can trigger strong emotional reactions that the other person may find difficult to tolerate.

Mars will also aspect the ascendant, giving Leo natives a lot of energy, drive, and intensity, but this excess energy can easily turn into overreaction and anger if not consciously controlled. This behavior can spoil otherwise stable and well-functioning situations. Conflicts may arise not only with the spouse but also with friends, seniors, bosses, colleagues, business partners, and life partners. Leo natives may unknowingly damage important relationships simply because of harsh words, impatience, or ego-driven reactions. This is why this period is considered tough and testing, not because everything goes wrong externally, but because internal behavior and temperament can create problems.

On the positive side, daily income and cash flow will improve during this period. Financially, Leo natives will see better movement of money, increased earnings, and smoother inflow. However, this will not translate into stable savings. Money will come, but it may also go out quickly, so long-term financial stability should not be overestimated during this transit. Overall, this is a phase where finances look better than relationships. Therefore, Leo ascendant and Leo Moon sign natives must pay special attention to their nature, speech, and reactions from February 23rd to April 2nd. Remaining calm, patient, and communicative is absolutely essential. If anger and impulsiveness are controlled, much of the damage indicated by this transit can be avoided, and the period can pass without long-term harm.

VIRGO

For Virgo ascendant and Virgo Moon sign, the Mars transit from February 23rd to April 2nd brings a challenging and demanding phase, as Mars moves through the sixth house. For Virgo, Mars is not a benefic planet, so this transit increases pressure related to expenses, stress, and conflicts. During this period, expenditures are likely to rise sharply, creating financial strain and mental disturbance. Efforts may feel wasted, as hard work does not translate into satisfying results, which can lead to frustration and self-doubt. Mental stress and anxiety are expected to remain high, affecting clarity of thought and decision-making ability.

One important exception during this transit relates to health. In the natural zodiac, Mars performs well in the sixth house, so Virgo natives who have been dealing with health issues may finally find effective treatments or solutions. Recovery from illness or improvement in physical condition is a positive outcome of this period. However, beyond health, most areas require caution. If Virgo natives are involved in legal matters, this transit can be costly, with increased expenses and the risk of unfavorable outcomes. Relationships with younger siblings and friends may also deteriorate, mainly due to irritability, misunderstandings, and emotional pressure.

Because mental stress is high, Virgo natives may struggle to make the right decisions during this time. This is not a phase to initiate new ventures or take risks. Unexpected expenditures can further disturb emotional balance and financial planning. Overall, this transit is not very supportive for Virgo ascendant and Moon sign natives and will feel like a period of struggle and endurance rather than progress. The key advice is to stay patient, avoid impulsive decisions, manage expenses carefully, and focus on health and routine. Though demanding, this phase is temporary, and with discipline and awareness, it can be navigated until conditions gradually improve.

LIBRA

For Libra ascendant and Libra Moon sign, the Mars transit from February 23rd to April 2nd brings mixed but clearly divided results, where professional and financial matters look better, while personal relationships require extra care. Mars, being the lord of the second and seventh houses, will transit through the fifth house. On the financial side, this transit is relatively supportive. Money matters will improve, cash flow will be better, and savings can increase. There are chances of earning through smart moves, quick decisions, or even intraday speculation, and some unexpected financial gains may also come your way. Business partners are likely to be supportive, and even the life partner may stand by you in practical matters. Professionally, this period can feel productive, especially when it comes to income and short-term financial benefits.

However, the personal and emotional side needs serious attention. If you are in a romantic relationship, there can be arguments, misunderstandings, or even a breakup during this period. Married Libra natives may face tension with their spouse, and the spouse’s health can become a matter of concern. Issues related to children can also arise, either in the form of disagreements, stress, or responsibility-related pressure. Even though the partner may be supportive overall, emotional satisfaction may be missing due to Mars’ aggressive influence. Since Mars is not a benefic planet for Libra, its transit can create impatience, irritability, and impulsive reactions, which can disturb harmony at home.

Overall, this period is financially better but emotionally sensitive. Libra ascendant and Moon sign natives must consciously protect their personal relationships—with parents, siblings, children, and especially the spouse. Avoid harsh words, impulsive reactions, and unnecessary arguments. If communication is handled calmly and emotions are kept in balance, the challenges in personal life can be managed, while the positive financial momentum of this transit can be fully utilized.

SCORPIO

For Scorpio ascendant and Scorpio Moon sign, the Mars transit from February 23rd to April 2nd brings mixed but intense results, because Mars—the ascendant lord—moves into the fourth house and remains combust until March 27th. Since the ascendant lord represents health, stability, confidence, and overall direction in life, its combustion and placement in the fourth house directly disturb emotional peace and domestic harmony. During this period, the mother’s health becomes a major concern, and the relationship with the mother may also go through strain or misunderstandings. Inner peace will be missing, and Scorpio natives may feel mentally disturbed, restless, or emotionally unsettled without a clear reason. The home environment may not feel comfortable, and stress levels can rise significantly.

At the same time, this transit carries a strong financial upside related to property and real estate. Those involved in real estate, construction, building materials, or brokerage can see very good gains, commissions, and profitable deals. Scorpio natives who have already invested in property may find a suitable buyer or close a favorable transaction during this time. For people running construction companies or property-related businesses, this can be a highly gainful period, despite emotional and domestic stress. Property sales and purchases can work in their favor from a financial perspective.

However, relationships within the home need careful handling. Along with the mother’s health, marital harmony may suffer, and the relationship with the spouse may feel strained or emotionally distant. Mental disturbance and stress can spill over into personal relationships if not consciously managed. Overall, this is a challenging but not entirely negative phase for Scorpio ascendant and Moon sign natives. Material gains—especially through property—are strong, but emotional balance is weak. The most important advice during this transit is to take special care of the mother’s health, maintain patience at home, and consciously protect inner peace, while using the favorable real estate energies wisely.

SAGITTARIUS 

For Sagittarius ascendant and Sagittarius Moon sign, the Mars transit in Aquarius from February 23rd to April 2nd is highly favorable and empowering, as Mars moves through the third house, where it is considered very strong and comfortable. During this period, confidence, courage, and bravery will be at their peak, allowing Sagittarius natives to take bold initiatives and achieve even the most challenging goals with ease. Tasks that once felt difficult will now be completed smoothly, and efforts will convert into clear and visible success. This is a time when self-belief rises naturally, helping Sagittarius natives move forward without hesitation.

Professionally, this transit is especially beneficial for those working in marketing, communication, media, e-commerce, online businesses, websites, or social media platforms such as Instagram. Good news is likely to come through calls, messages, emails, or digital communication. Business owners may receive strong responses from the market, and job professionals can see recognition, appreciation, or new opportunities. Hard work done in the past begins to pay off, and there is a sense of ease and satisfaction at the workplace. Relationships with younger siblings will also improve, and their support can play a meaningful role during this phase.

Overall, this transit brings a productive, energetic, and rewarding phase for Sagittarius ascendant and Moon sign natives. However, the only area that requires awareness is behavior and communication style. With high energy comes the risk of aggression, ego, or stubbornness. Sagittarius natives should consciously remain calm, humble, and polite in conversations. Avoid suppressing emotions or reacting impulsively. If this powerful Mars energy is used constructively and with emotional maturity, this period can become one of the most positive and growth-oriented phases of the year.

CAPRICORN

For Capricorn ascendant and Capricorn Moon sign, the Mars–Rahu transit from February 23rd to April 2nd forms Angarak Dosha in the second house, making this a testing and sensitive period, especially in matters related to family, speech, and finances. The second house governs family harmony, values, speech, and savings, and with Mars and Rahu together here, relationships within the family can become strained. Capricorn natives may unknowingly engage in harsh, nonsensical, or abusive speech, which can seriously damage relationships with elders, parents, and close family members. Ego clashes, misunderstandings, and lack of emotional warmth can create distance, and some relationships may temporarily break or weaken due to poor communication or insensitive behavior.

Financially, this period brings mixed results. While the inflow of money may remain decent and work may continue, unexpected expenditures can rise sharply, leading to pressure on savings. Money may get spent suddenly on health issues, family responsibilities, or unforeseen problems, reducing financial comfort. Disputes may also arise with friends, well-wishers, or family friends, further adding to mental stress. Because of strained communication, some people may start distancing themselves from Capricorn natives during this time, which can feel emotionally isolating.

This transit demands strict control over speech and behavior. The biggest risk during this period is not external loss, but self-created problems due to words spoken in anger or frustration. Capricorn natives must consciously practice patience, humility, and sweetness in communication, especially with elders. Respecting elders, seeking their blessings, and avoiding arguments are crucial remedies during this phase. If Capricorn natives can control their tongue and remain emotionally mature, the damage to relationships and finances can be minimized. Otherwise, this period can feel tough and draining. Overall, this is a challenging phase, but with self-awareness and restraint, it can be managed without long-term harm.

AQUARIUS

For Aquarius ascendant and Aquarius Moon sign, the Mars transit in Aquarius from February 23rd to April 2nd is one of the most challenging phases, because Mars will transit directly over the ascendant, and Rahu is already present there. This creates Angarak Dosha in the ascendant, which strongly affects health, mindset, behavior, decision-making, and overall life direction. During this period, anger, aggression, impatience, and impulsive reactions will increase sharply. Aquarius natives may feel irritated without reason and may react strongly even to small issues. Health needs serious attention, as problems related to high or low blood pressure, blood infections, urinary tract infections, inflammation, weakness, and stress-related issues are indicated. Mentally, this can be a draining phase, with anxiety, tension, overthinking, and inner restlessness remaining high.

Professionally, things may not work according to expectations. Business transactions can face obstacles, misunderstandings, or losses, and trust issues may arise. Those in jobs may struggle with targets, face pressure from seniors, or get into arguments with colleagues, co-workers, or employees. The aggressive energy of Mars, combined with Rahu’s confusion, can damage workplace relationships if not consciously controlled. Personal life is also sensitive—arguments with the spouse or in-laws can escalate quickly, and ego clashes can spoil harmony. This is not the right time to start any new business, make major decisions, or blindly trust anyone, as judgment may be clouded.

Extra caution is required in daily life. Aquarius natives should drive carefully, avoid risks, and prioritize health by getting blood tests, urine tests, and a general health check-up if needed. This period demands discipline, patience, and restraint. While this transit is difficult, it is temporary. If Aquarius ascendant and Moon sign natives consciously work on controlling anger, avoid conflicts, stay low-key, and focus on health and stability, they can pass through this phase with minimal damage. Following this advice carefully between February 23rd and April 2nd is essential, as this period is not supportive for Aquarius in terms of health, relationships, or professional stability.

PISCES

For Pisces ascendant and Pisces Moon sign, the Mars transit from February 23rd to April 2nd is largely favorable and transformative, especially in matters connected to foreign lands, overseas opportunities, and international finances. Mars is a benefic planet for Pisces, and as it transits the 12th house, it activates themes of foreign travel, international connections, global income, and overseas growth. During this period, unexpected money from foreign sources is strongly indicated. Even if Pisces natives are not personally abroad, they may receive financial support, payments, or benefits from friends or family members living overseas.

However, alongside these advantages, this period also brings significant challenges. Unexpected expenditures can rise sharply, creating pressure on finances, and most savings may get spent during this time. Legal matters may arise or intensify, adding to stress and anxiety. Health issues are also a concern, and both physical weakness and mental strain can trouble Pisces natives. Workload at the job may increase substantially, creating pressure and exhaustion. Although Pisces natives have the inner strength to handle this pressure, things may still feel slightly unfavorable, delayed, or mentally draining.

This transit is particularly powerful for those waiting for foreign travel, PR approvals, or work visas. Applications related to overseas opportunities are likely to move forward positively, and long-pending hopes for international exposure can finally materialize. Mars, being the lord of the ninth house, entering the twelfth house creates a strong connection between luck and foreign lands, making this phase a potential game-changer. Pisces natives involved in import–export, international trade, foreign clients, or overseas partnerships can receive orders, advance payments, or down payments from abroad, bringing both financial relief and professional satisfaction.

Overall, this period opens a window of growth through foreign associations and global expansion. Foreign transactions will bring happiness, confidence, and a sense of progress. While general caution in expenses is always wise with a twelfth-house transit, the overall tone for Pisces ascendant and Moon sign natives is positive and opportunity-driven during this Mars transit. From February 23rd to April 2nd, foreign-related work begins to move smoothly, and better prospects start unfolding, making this a promising and forward-moving phase for Pisces.
