February Horoscopes

STAR OF THE MONTH

AQUARIUS

20 JANUARY – 18 FEBRUARY

Cosmic waves shake up your life and bring opportunities to showcase your brilliance. This year is a time of power - sexual, emotional and professional. Additional responsibilities may be required of you, but nothing you can’t handle. Best news: any success should boost financial prospects. In June, more passionate desires demand attention, so that’s when to ease up on the workload and let love flow. Some may surrender to illicit temptations, while others prefer to live less dangerously - but no less romantically. Also likely: financial gains from inheritance or unexpected sources.

PISCES

19 FEBRUARY – 20 MARCH

You’ve been burning the candle at both ends, Pisces. End result? Stress, exhaustion or lowered immunity. You can’t keep treating your body as if it’s a machine or, pretty soon, expect some cogs to come loose. Amend your far-too busy schedule. Take that overdue holiday. In any case, some retrospection and review are in order before your upcoming birthday season. That’s when you get to play.

ARIES

21 MARCH – 20 APRIL

Independence becomes your keyword this month - particularly in money matters. Expect changes in joint finances, so don’t become too reliant on another’s resources. And despite the occasional temptation to take a risk, cover your bets and don’t borrow if you can’t afford the repayments. Romance, though, offers more excitement. A sexier new you emerges. The prospects of making a long-term commitment and happiness are high.

TAURUS

21 APRIL – 20 MAY

Sometimes it seems that fate gives with one hand and takes with the other. Thankfully, February signals the end of this struggle. Once again, you’re motivated and heading towards success. If you have a brilliant proposal in the back of your mind, bring it to the fore. On the other hand, if you’re more inclined to hit the road for a while, now’s your chance to roam. It looks like a crucial financial leap could also be on the horizon.

GEMINI

21 MAY – 21 JUNE

Geminis work hard to keep loved ones close, so it throws you when a good friend becomes unreliable. Is there someone new vying for their attention? Give your friend the benefit of the doubt. You can still enjoy their company, even if you don’t feel quite as attached. At work, play your cards close to your chest. Your financial affairs will enjoy more chance of quiet success if they remain unadvertised for the time being.

CANCER

22 JUNE – 22 JULY

As a Cancer, you believe in miracles - so you’ll love the amazing events coming your way. Just don’t become complacent. Even though you’re riding a wave of optimism, the currents may be unpredictable, so pay attention to details. Also, be prepared to jettison old baggage for new opportunities. Money shouldn’t be too much of a problem so, this month you can afford to work and play hard.

LEO

23 JULY – 22 AUGUST

The cosmos is generous to most Leos this month. The Sun offers professional support; Jupiter brings spontaneity to friendships, and Mercury hints at romance. The really good news? For many months to come, love and commitment become entwined. At work, use your unique talents to establish a solid groundwork. You’re due for success but remember - preparation is the key.

VIRGO

23 AUGUST – 22 SEPTEMBER

We all have hidden tensions that can cause us to behave in ways we don’t always understand. But this month’s problems may not be that serious, so don’t make matters worse. If you feel you’ve lost direction, try to free yourself from any self-imposed rut. Be bold and believe in yourself. Don’t be afraid to tell it like it is, and don’t buckle to ideas that are second best.

LIBRA

23 SEPTEMBER – 22 OCTOBER

Mars rules your home and family sector through February, drawing attention to personal matters. Enhance your living space so that it can nourish your hopes and dreams. Librans tend to live in the present but, for now, you should reconnect

with your past. Memories, both happy and sad, will help you recognise life patterns. For singles and couples alike, forgiveness and trust open the way for unconditional love.

SCORPIO

23 OCTOBER – 21 NOVEMBER

There are many Scorpios who long for contentment. Even those surrounded by love could be feeling a little wistful. Although February is a time of socialising, you may also opt for some solitude. The upside: new freedoms to make your own choices. By month’s end, your stunning new image will dazzle all. Downside: I hear you also fretting over finances, but listen up: next month, cash flow improves.

SAGITTARIUS

22 NOVEMBER – 21 DECEMBER

Whether in business or pleasure, it’s all systems go. Basically, you can do most of what you want. Even so, expect the occasional drawback. Success can be a mixture of luck and opportunity. This month, it’s good fortune that prevails but, remember - luck is often recognising the possibilities that suit your strengths. A similar theme applies to your love life. There’s a good chance of finding your karmically-linked soulmate.

CAPRICORN

22 DECEMBER – 19 JANUARY

In February’s treasure hunt, Uranus will guide you past the diversions Mars has in store, past business dealings with the Sun - and into the arms of new love. But don’t lose your Capricorn pragmatism. At work, too, negotiations are as demanding as ever, so be cautious. You should also stay alert to the risks of rekindled passion. Nostalgia may cloud your judgement and leave you a tad too misty-eyed.
