Multiple people are dead, including the suspected attacker, after a mass shooting at a secondary school in British Columbia in Canada on Tuesday afternoon, according to police.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) responded to the shooting at the rural Tumbler Ridge Secondary School at approximately 1:20 PM local time and issued a localized emergency alert
ordering residents to shelter in place.

The shooting occurred at Tumbler Ridge Secondary School in the town of Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia, Canada. This is a remote community in northeastern BC's Peace River region, with a population of about 2,400, located roughly 1,000–1,155 km (around 600 miles) north of Vancouver, near the Alberta border and in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains.The precise geographic coordinates for Tumbler Ridge (and specifically the area of the school incident) are approximately 55.1238°N, 121.0016°W.Nearest city/town: Tumbler Ridge itself (the incident took place directly in this small town; no larger nearby city is closer, though Dawson Creek is about 100 km southeast, and Fort St. John is farther north).
This is based on the location consistently reported across sources covering the February 10, 2026, incident referenced in the RT article. No more granular street-level coordinates for the school building were detailed in reports, but the town's coordinates align with the school's location within it.
Shooting Chart (Feb 10, 2026, 20:20 UT: Sun at ~22° Aquarius, Uranus at ~27° Taurus (tightly conjunct Algol, the infamous "Demon Star" at ~26°–27° Taurus in tropical zodiac, known for extreme violence, catastrophe, beheading/mutilation themes, sudden destructive events, and intense Mars-like aggression when activated). Uranus-Algol often correlates with shocking, explosive, or revolutionary violence—unpredictable outbursts, technology/weapons involved, or radical disruptions. This aligns strongly with a school shooting (sudden, public, weaponized aggression).
Solar Annular Eclipse (Feb 17, 2026, ~12:00 UT at location): Eclipse at ~28° Aquarius (Sun/Moon conjunct at New Moon degree). This places the eclipse very close to 28° Aquarius, conjunct Gienah (ε Cygni / Gienah in Cygnus) listed at ~28° Aquarius.
Eclipse Activation & Broader Ties: The eclipse at 28° Aquarius conjunct Gienah squares Uranus-Algol (27° Taurus), creating a tense T-square dynamic: Eclipse (emotional culmination/new beginnings in innovative/detached Aquarius) challenged by explosive Uranus-Algol (sudden violence/shock). The quincunx to Zeus (Trans-Neptunian Point for guns/explosives/shooting) on the MC adds precision—Zeus often symbolizes directed force, firearms, or "shooting" events in Uranian/harmonic astrology. This setup exemplifies eclipse "trigger" potential: Eclipses near malefic stars or hard-aspecting them can manifest dramatically (here, the prior Algol-Uranus violence amplified by the approaching eclipse at Gienah degree). The eclipse chart's Zeus near MC reinforces themes of targeted aggression or "fated" explosive events at the location. Overall, the Algol-Uranus conjunction in the shooting chart is the dominant violence signature (classic for sudden, horrific attacks).
The astrological connections from Diana Rosenberg's Secrets of the Ancient Skies add significant depth to interpreting the February 17, 2026, annular solar eclipse (at ~28° Aquarius) and its ties to the Tumbler Ridge shooting event chart (Feb 10, 2026). Rosenberg's approach—grouping fixed stars by narrow zodiacal degree spans (often 3–5°), cross-referencing historical/natal events, mundane incidents, and constellation lore—emphasizes patterns of suppressed energies erupting, violence, rebellion, and instability in these zones.Eclipse Degree Span: 27°–29° Aquarius (Pages 645–648)Rosenberg's listing here—"release of long-contained or long-suppressed energies and/or tensions; assassinations; mass intolerance"—aligns strikingly with the eclipse's role as a trigger. This span falls in the tropical projection of Cygnus (the Swan), whose stars (like Gienah/ε Cygni at ~28° Aquarius) she associates with soaring aspirations, grace, and spiritual navigation but also with volatility, sudden falls, or emotional eruptions when afflicted.: It would be wrong to interpret this Cygnus zone as all about the “graceful Swan” and therefore "all nice and quiet." While traditional Ptolemaic views (Venus-Mercury: contemplative, adaptable) suggest subtlety, Rosenberg's event catalog reveals darker manifestations—pent-up forces bursting forth, intolerance leading to collective harm, or targeted acts (assassinations as extreme examples of suppressed rage exploding).
In the eclipse chart, this degree conjuncts the eclipse point itself, squaring Uranus-Algol (~27° Taurus in the shooting chart). Algol's presence (the "Demon Star" for brutal violence, catastrophe, and beheading/mutilation themes) amplifies the release of tensions into shocking, destructive form.
The 3rd house placement (communication, local environment, education/schools) reinforces a school-related manifestation, as per traditional house meanings (e.g., from Skyscript and Lilly: 3rd house links to "short journeys, siblings, letters, schools, and early learning environments"). Eclipses here can highlight disruptions or violent events in educational settings, especially when tied to malefic stars.
This eclipse thus acts as a "perfect storm" activator: the suppressed energies (per Rosenberg) meet Algol-Uranus shock + Zeus (guns/explosives) on the MC for directed aggression. Ascendant Degree Span: 18°–21° Sagittarius (Pages 356–376): Containing Sabik (ο Ophiuchi) and Ras Alhague (α Ophiuchi, the Serpent-Holder's Head), Rosenberg notes: "rebellion or suppression of rebellion; assassinations; emotional instability" and "assaults from rabid or infuriated animals." Ophiuchus/Serpentarius themes involve healing vs. poisoning, struggle with primal forces (serpents as rage/venom), and authority over chaos. Sabik and Ras Alhague often indicate intense conflicts, poison (metaphorical or literal), fanaticism, or battles against "madness."
Rebellion/suppression fits a school shooting perpetrator's profile (suppressed rage exploding into mass action). Assassinations/emotional instability echo the sudden, rage-fueled attack. The "rabid animals" motif can symbolize uncontrolled, bestial aggression (human acting on instinctual fury).
MC Degree Span with Zeus: 24°–28° Libra: Rosenberg associates this area with "murder; extreme violence." Libra here (justice/balance) contrasts sharply with malefic overlays—suggesting violence in pursuit of "fairness" (perceived injustice), relational breakdowns, or public acts (MC = visible events).Zeus (Uranian point for firearms, directed energy, explosions, leadership in force) on the MC in this span is particularly ominous: targeted, explosive violence made manifest publicly (school as "public" target). Combined with the eclipse square to Uranus-Algol, it underscores a "fated" extreme act.
Overall Synthesis: This is a textbook example of eclipse potency in mundane/event astrology, per Rosenberg's methodology: Eclipse at 28° Aquarius (Cygnus zone: suppressed energies release → mass intolerance/violence) in 3rd house (schools/education disrupted).

The tragic event fits these patterns chillingly well—eclipses don't "cause" but reveal and trigger latent tensions in afflicted degrees. Rosenberg's exhaustive event correlations (military attacks, assassinations, upheavals) across these spans validate viewing Cygnus/27°–29° Aquarius as capable of darker expressions when activated harshly.
The Feb 17, 2026, eclipse is part of Saros 121, labeled as 10 North in Bernadette Brady's numbering system (from The Eagle and the Lark and her eclipse work). The "mother" or first eclipse in the series occurred on April 25, 944 AD (OS, Julian calendar; ~10:31 GMT North Pole per Brady's excerpt), with the New Moon conjunct Algol.
The first eclipse (the "birth chart" of the series) encodes the essence or thematic DNA that echoes through every subsequent eclipse in the family, recurring every ~18 years +11 days. The "mother" imprints a persistent flavor: here, Algol's extreme malefic signature (sudden catastrophe, violence, rage, beheading/mutilation themes, Mars-like destructiveness, primal fury) infuses the entire 10 North series.
