your HOROSCOPE
For Monday, February 19
As the sensitive Cancer Moon challenges visionary Venus and arrogant Mars, we may realize that some of our recent brainstorms aren’t realistic once actual humans become involved. That doesn’t mean we should stop trying to make things better. When Luna trines grounded Saturn, toning our dreams down a bit can bring us achievable progress. The Moon goes on to sextile fortunate Jupiter, so we could end up more satisfied than we expect.
ARIES
MARCH 2 1 -APRIL 1 9
Your social network is ready to offer you plenty of exciting opportunities today. However, you might struggle to keep up.
An activity that truly nourishes you could actually increase your stamina, but you probably won’t be able to convincingly fake interest in something that’s not a great fit.
TAURUS
APRIL 2 0 -MAY 2 0 Talking about a risky goal could be difficult at this time. You want it, and yet you don’t — you’re conflicted. Keep in mind that you should avoid coming down hard on someone who takes the “wrong” side of your internal dispute. Criticism of a specific plan is not necessarily criticism of you.
GEMINI
MAY 2 1 -JUNE 2 0
You could be inspired by an exciting idea at any point throughout your day, but be careful! You may ultimately realize that you still prefer a more traditional approach. You don’t have to feel bad about this, but remember to avoid holding others to standards you can’t follow yourself.
CANCER
JUNE 2 1 -JULY 2 2 You may want to get some things off your chest ASAP, but it’s possible that the idea of inviting your friends into your personal business isn’t appealing. Certain struggles are universal, and others could benefit from having that powerful conversation too.
LEO
JULY 2 3 -AUG. 2 2 Getting to know someone new could be exciting for you. However, you might also worry that things are moving too quickly. It’s okay to hold some information back for the time being — don’t let the heat of the moment sweep you into an impulsive disclosure you’ll regret.
VIRGO
AUG. 2 3 -SEPT. 2 2 Your present work could be genuinely engrossing for you. Maybe it’s time to thoughtfully articulate your priorities regarding specific relationships. Making a standing commitment to meet regularly may seem to eliminate the fun of spontaneous hangouts, but at least it can ensure that you actually see each other.
LIBRA
SEPT. 2 3 -OCT. 2 2
Choosing between work and play could be a struggle at the moment. Although you can see a glimpse of the rewards you’ll achieve if you keep applying yourself, that may not be quite enough to quench your ongoing desire for pleasure. Working together should get your tasks done faster.
SCORPIO
OCT. 2 3 -NOV. 2 1
Going out and having an adventure might seem like the right thing to do at present.
You potentially feel obligated to keep up with your peers’ expectations. Even though it’s hard to disappoint others, pleasure doesn’t have to look the same for every person. Follow your own heart.
SAGITTARIUS
NOV. 2 2 -DEC. 2 1
Throwing yourself into a stimulating conversation is possible today. Staying in touch with your inner sense of security should help you determine what’s truly necessary to share right now. When you come to someone humbled, you give yourself the chance to hear what they’re really saying.
CAPRICORN
DEC. 2 2 -JAN. 1 9
You may currently view your financial prospects with excitement. That said, an unenthusiastic reaction from a loved one could dampen your joy. Some people, due to their personal difficult experiences, just aren’t equipped to be the audience you need on this topic.
AQUARIUS
JAN. 2 0 -FEB. 1 8
You’re capable of getting things done with a practical approach. Even so, you might also notice the potential for using charm to cut in line. Sometimes the universe is abundant. Don’t push it too far though — your success shouldn’t come in a way that steps on others.
PISCES
FEB. 1 9 -MARCH 2 0 Finding the right balance in your communications could now require a careful approach. Are you in a situation where you need to convey an impression of seriousness to others? Regardless, a thoughtfully chosen personal story can help them understand your point better. Still, keep the spicier details to yourself.
