Here’s How to See the Rare 6-Planet Parade Happening in February

by

There’s a celestial connection on the horizon.

On February 28th, six planets—Jupiter, Mercury, Neptune, Saturn, Uranus, and Venus—will line up in the sky, creating a rare “planet parade.” While the event is special, you might need binoculars to see all the planets clearly.

As a lifestyle expert, I’m so excited about the planetary alignment happening soon! Here’s what you need to know: you’ll definitely be able to see Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn with just your eyes – Venus is especially brilliant! Uranus and Neptune are a bit further out, so you might need binoculars or a telescope to spot those two. And to make it even more magical, a nearly full moon will be shining bright alongside the planets. It’s going to be a beautiful night to look up at the stars!

While the second comet will be brighter and easier to spot, it’s still a good idea to have a clear view to fully enjoy the celestial event.

If you want to see Venus, Mercury, and Saturn, look to the western sky just after the sun goes down. For Jupiter, which will appear close to Saturn and Uranus, look towards the eastern sky.

Although NASA says the planets will appear closest on February 28th, you won’t just be able to see this alignment on one night. Because the planets move slowly across the sky, these sightings can last for weeks, or even a month or more.

According to the organization, even when five planets appear together, the event lasts several days because Mercury quickly appears and disappears behind the Sun. These ‘planetary parades’ aren’t extremely rare, but they offer a special chance to look up and think about our solar system.

Over the years, impressive planetary alignments have occurred, like the seven-planet alignment we saw last February. Back then, Mars appeared in the eastern sky shortly after sunset. However, astrologer Aliza Kelly notes that these alignments, whether historic or not, don’t significantly affect your personal astrological chart.

She explained to TopMob News that the event wouldn’t be caused by a specific planetary alignment. However, she emphasized that the way it appears from Earth is still a powerful and wondrous experience.

Okay, so while the stars aren’t completely rearranging themselves, I’ve been diving deep into what this year holds for each zodiac sign, and let me tell you, Aliza has some really insightful things to share about everyone’s path. Keep reading to find out what’s in store for you!

If you’re an Aries (born between March 21st and April 19th), 2026 will be a major year of change. Neptune and Saturn will both move into your sign in January and February, starting a long-term period of self-discovery and growth. This is about creating a life that truly feels authentic to who you are. You’ll need to be brave, trust yourself, and take the lead, but by the end of the year, you’ll feel much more confident and secure in your own power.

Oh my gosh, 2026 is going to be huge for us Tauruses! I’ve been reading everything I can, and apparently, Chiron is moving into Taurus on June 19th, which means healing is finally going to click for us. It’s all about figuring out what makes us feel safe and secure – you know, things like money, how we feel in our bodies, and building a really solid future. It might not be a massive, overnight change, but apparently, we’re building up our confidence and strength little by little. By the end of the year, I just know we’re going to understand exactly what we need to truly feel supported and happy. I’m SO ready!

If you’re a Gemini (born between May 21st and June 20th), get ready for big changes! Starting April 25th, a rare planetary event – Uranus entering your sign – will kick off a period of personal growth and transformation. You can expect your thoughts, communication style, and daily life to shift quickly. Old ways of thinking will fade, making room for new ideas and exciting possibilities. This year is likely to bring major advancements, particularly in areas like learning, communication, and creativity.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22): 2026 is set to be a significant year for your career and public image! With Neptune and Saturn influencing the area of your chart related to your long-term goals, you can expect breakthroughs, recognition, and leadership opportunities. All your hard work will finally start to pay off, and you may find yourself taking on a role that is both rewarding and challenging. This year will set the stage for future success and increased visibility – it’s been a long time coming!

If you’re a Leo (born between July 23rd and August 22nd), get ready for a boost in confidence and creativity! Starting June 30th, with Jupiter entering Leo, you’ll experience a year of growth in how you express yourself, lead others, and become more visible. This has been building for a while – since 2014, actually – so it’s a welcome development. Embrace opportunities to shine, be bold, and show the world what you’re capable of. By the end of the year, you’ll likely feel more connected to your true self and receive the recognition you deserve.

If you’re a Virgo (born August 23 to September 22), you’ll find your relationships becoming much clearer. With Neptune moving out of a key area of your chart, a long period of confusion and unrealistic expectations is coming to an end. By 2026, you’ll have a chance to start fresh in partnerships, focusing on honest and respectful connections. This is a time to rethink what commitment means to you, both in your relationships with others and with yourself.

For Libras (born September 23 to October 23), 2026 will be a year focused on relationships. With Neptune and Saturn entering your relationship sector early in the year (January 26 and February 13), you’ll be working on finding a balance between love and practicality, and closeness and personal space. Some relationships will become stronger through commitment, while others may end if they don’t help you grow. By the end of the year, you’ll have a clearer sense of what you need in a partner and who you want to share your life with.

As a Scorpio, I’m so excited about Jupiter moving into Leo on June 30th! It’s really going to shake things up in my career and how I’m seen professionally. I feel like this is a time to really think about the mark I want to leave on the world and focus on long-term goals. It’s like the universe is pushing me to invest in things that will matter not just today, but for years to come – to build a truly meaningful legacy. This year feels huge for professional growth and making a real contribution!

If you’re a Sagittarius (born between November 22nd and December 21st), 2026 will be a year of growth through new experiences. With Jupiter encouraging exploration, you’ll broaden your horizons – whether by traveling, learning, or deepening your spirituality. These experiences will challenge how you see the world and help you rediscover your passions. By year’s end, you’ll feel optimistic and full of potential, which is perfectly in line with the Sagittarius spirit.

If you’re a Capricorn (born between December 22nd and January 19th), you’re entering a period focused on finding joy and expressing yourself creatively. The coming years, especially 2026, will teach you that happiness doesn’t have to come from hardship. This is a time to relax, be open to new emotional experiences, and rediscover what brings you pleasure. Remember, it’s okay to have fun – and it’s actually beneficial for you!

If you’re an Aquarius (born between January 20th and February 18th), June brings a focus on your relationships thanks to a shift in Jupiter’s position. The next couple of years will be about finding strong partnerships that help you grow and make a bigger impact. Remember, working with others who share your vision can open doors to amazing new possibilities.

If you’re a Pisces (born between February 19th and March 20th), 2026 is a big year for you! Neptune, a planet that’s been influencing your sign since 2011, is moving on, which means you’ll start to feel more focused and sure of yourself. After a period of feeling uncertain, you’ll be able to turn your dreams into real-life achievements and use the lessons you’ve learned. This is a time to move forward with confidence, understand what’s truly important to you, and make sure you’re getting what you deserve for your skills and talents.
