YOUR HOROSCOPE

For Sunday, February 25

Creative solutions are possible today, but we’ll have to get past our insecurities first. When the nervous Moon in tightly wound Virgo aggravates testy Chiron, our initial reaction to any provocation is likely to be negative. Perhaps a rush for immediate answers is making things more stressful than they need to be. As Luna goes on to collaborate with clever Uranus, the inspiration we seek could eventually find us. We should slow down and make room for it to arrive.

ARIES

MARCH 2 1 -APRIL 1 9 Your practical affairs could be humming along pretty well at the moment. However, a situation that meets your logistical and financial needs might not appear as outwardly impressive as you’d prefer. Real life isn’t about looking cool though — it’s about getting things done.

TAURUS

APRIL 2 0 -MAY 2 0 Your playful and expressive mood could be entertaining for the people around you today. That said, there’s a risk you’re using too much humor and fun to cover up something you’re insecure about. Remember that putting energy toward suppressing it is still giving it a lot of attention.

GEMINI

MAY 2 1 -JUNE 2 0 An unconventional characteristic of your home or family life could make you stand out from your peers at the moment. It’s often not easy to be different, no matter how nice people try to be about it. Don’t push others to agree that you’re doing the right thing — simply quietly embrace what you enjoy.

CANCER

JUNE 2 1 -JULY 2 2

There is potentially no amount of information you can gather that will prove your point to someone who is committed to keeping you in what they perceive as your place. Perhaps there will eventually be strength in numbers even if it doesn’t come immediately.

LEO

JULY 2 3 -AUG. 2 2

A great idea for making money could come to you now. Unfortunately, you might feel reined in by rules that seem stupid or overly judgmental. Ask yourself if there’s a hidden gift in this opportunity to slow down. Once you pause to think about your strategy more deeply, you can potentially take it to the next level.

VIRGO

AUG. 2 3 -SEPT. 2 2 Getting too close to someone could make you anxious at present. Although you may want to connect, you probably don’t want your companion digging into personal matters that you’re sensitive about. An abstract philosophical discussion might be more your jam.

LIBRA

SEPT. 2 3 -OCT. 2 2

An atmosphere of secrecy could weigh on a close relationship of yours at the moment. It’s possible that you keep a lot to yourself because you’re afraid that the other person will judge you harshly. If you don’t peek outside your comfort zone, you’ll never truly know your capabilities.

SCORPIO

OCT. 2 3 -NOV. 2 1

A meeting of the minds could invigorate you now. Unfortunately, the practical details of making your hangout happen in reality will potentially be harder to pin down. Try to put any frustrations you experience in perspective — with a little patience, you’ll get the connection you crave.

SAGITTARIUS

NOV. 2 2 -DEC. 2 1

Rewarding work may be available to you at the moment.

Even so, you might not be able to act on some of your personal desires to the full extent that you’d prefer. Not everything is about you — instead of focusing on what you currently lack, make an effort to notice what’s going right.

CAPRICORN

DEC. 2 2 -JAN. 1 9 An exciting adventure is currently possible for you. Maybe the only thing standing in your way is entrenched beliefs about the necessity to stay on the predictable path. Although this approach may have made sense earlier, look closely at how circumstances have changed.

AQUARIUS

JAN. 2 0 -FEB. 1 8 You may currently be interested in getting to know someone better. Unfortunately, something crucial could wind up lost in translation when you try to put this desire into words. Try contemplating the benefits of spending time in each other’s presence without expectations. You’ll probably learn exactly what you need for now.

PISCES

FEB. 1 9 -MARCH 2 0

Financial differences could currently cause a significant relationship of yours to feel imbalanced. No matter which side of the scale you’re on, you may be sensitive regarding your status in relation to the other person. You’re supported to say what’s on your mind instead of just stewing about it.
