1st decan of Pisces: Saturn
Each sign is divided into three decans, 10° slices that the Sun crosses in about ten days each. February 26 falls in the first decan of Pisces (about February 19–28), which the traditional Chaldean system assigns to Saturn. Astrologers say that adds discipline, patience and a serious streak.
Saturn brings structure and a long view. People from this decan often mature early and are willing to work slowly toward something that lasts.
The number 26 in numerology

What zodiac sign is February 26?
February 26 falls in Pisces, which runs from February 19 to March 20 in the tropical zodiac. The Sun changes sign at a slightly different moment each year, so the boundary can fall a day or so either side of these dates. If you were born close to the edge, your birth year, time and place decide it.
Is February 26 a cusp birthday?
Not by the usual definition, which counts the first and last couple of days of a sign. February 26 is day 8 of Pisces season, so it is normally read as a clear Pisces birthday.
Which decan is February 26?
February 26 is in the first decan of Pisces (February 19–28). In the traditional Chaldean system this decan is ruled by Saturn, which astrologers say adds its own flavour to Pisces. Some modern astrologers assign decan rulers by element instead, which gives different planets, and decans are strictly 10° slices of the zodiac, so the date range is approximate.
What are the birthstone and flower for February?
The modern birthstone for February is Amethyst and the birth flower is the violet. These come from calendar tradition rather than astrology, and the lists vary by country and source.
