On the Mundane Astrologers Facebook Group (MAFG) various astrologers speak of the February 2026 Saturn-Neptune conjunction and for good reason. The path from the 1916-17, through the 1952-53, and 1989 conjunctions between the pair display a direct narrative on many fronts.

• The 1917, 1952-53, 1989 conjunctions contain direct correlation to the rise and fall of the Soviet Union
• The rise have of the US to superpower takes a parallel path
• Petroleum, the fuel of international trade, features prominently, e.g, the CIA led ouster of the democratically elected Mossadegh to control Iran's oil assets in 1953
• The end of the Iran-Iraq War in 1988
• A slap-on-the-wrist from the 1989 Exxon Valdez incident was the tacit response to James Hansen's climate testimony in 1988
