Sagittarius Monthly Horoscope February 2026 - Page 9
The first Mercury retrograde of 2026 begins February 26
Normally, you can’t get enough “people-ing,” Sagittarius, but starting February 26, the quirks that you found endearing could literally drive you to the edge, especially in close quarters or emotional spaces where there’s no easy escape. For this shortened fuse you can thank (or blame) feisty Mercury, who spins into an aggravating retrograde until March 20 in foggy Pisces and your domestic fourth house, stirring up feelings around home, family and your sense of belonging.
Friction under your roof could crackle when Mercury spills back into Pisces. A relative could be the source of the angst, perhaps someone who reopens old arguments, ignores boundaries or expects you to manage THEIR emotions. Be careful not to get hooked into their web of chaos. If you're a parent, you could find yourself at odds with a willful child or to balance work and home life. On the proactive side, this could be a great time to catch up on bonding time if you, like many Sags, have had a busy start to the year.
Plans to move or spruce up your home might be delayed by Mercury's machinations, from contractor miscommunications and budget surprises to suddenly second-guessing where (or with whom) you want to put down roots. You might also find yourself reflecting on deeper fourth-house themes, like inherited family patterns, childhood memories or what “home” really means to you now. Be patient (hard, we know) because the coast will be clear just in time for the spring equinox. Whew.
