Daily Horoscopes for 2/17

General Daily Horoscope

 

The fixed Leo Moon tempts us to act like we’re the center of attention, but that doesn’t necessarily mean we want the spotlight on us. It may be time to reevaluate our self-importance and learn to participate as part of a larger group or community. While today’s outgoing Leo Moon drives us to share our feelings, the annual conjunction of the Sun and dreamy Neptune can open a portal to the realms of imagination, making it hard to know what’s real.

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You are in a playful mood today, and even something that’s hard work can seem like a game. Although you may be gleeful that you are in touch with your inner child, make sure you aren’t just being foolish. It’s easy to miss something important that could prompt you to take things more seriously. With so many planets now in your 11th House of Future, be certain about where you are going before you blindly head off in a new direction.

 

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You could be so sure of yourself that your overconfidence can backfire today. Even if you have been certain about your chosen path at work, don’t assume that it’s the only way to get what you want. In fact, be prepared to reconsider your long-term goals. The Sun’s current conjunction with spiritual Neptune in your 10th House of Career may have you worrying less about your productivity and searching for more meaning, instead.

 

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You can be a master of disguise today with elusive Neptune joining the Sun in your 9th House of Big Ideas. Whatever you want to be is within the range of possibility — or, at least, so you think. You don’t even need to dress up in a costume or don a mask; others will see you as you see yourself. You may appear much busier than you actually are now if it enables you to avoid taking on more work. Rather than creating a smokescreen of illusion, setting clear boundaries is your best move.

 

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You may be tempted to hide your concern as you become increasingly uncertain of your current financial position. However, it’s not a good idea to spend money on others in order to prove that you are operating on a solid fiscal foundation. Overly dramatic gestures will fall short of your desired expectations and leave you worse off than you were. Instead, hold steady for now and let others form whatever opinions they want.

 

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

The Moon’s current visit to your sign could amplify a difference of opinion between you and a co-worker or partner. At first you both seem to be on the same page, but the tension increases because of a simple misunderstanding. Don’t focus on the disagreements or attempt to get to the bottom of an argument now. Instead, get over this emotional speed bump by concentrating your efforts on finding common ground. Wait until after tomorrow’s dramatic Full Moon before trying to clarify everything else.

 

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Tensions have been building and something has to give. Even if you are resisting the change, now you are becoming increasingly ready for an energetic shift. You cannot push this transition; it still will take a while to play on through. But at least you know where the problems are and have an idea on how to go about resolving them. For now, it’s best to work through all the scenarios in your imagination without committing to one specific path, until you see how the circumstances unfold.

 

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Even if someone seems to be pretty straightforward today, there’s still more going on than meets the eye. Be careful about using logic to reach a conclusion because confusing Neptune aligns with the Sun in your 5th House of Creative Expression. You might assume that you are working with facts, but your imagination is more active than you realize. Consider everything you say now as a possibility instead of the truth.

 

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Usually you are satisfied when you know that you did a good job, but today the Moon in your 10th House of Status reveals your desire to be recognized for your contribution. It isn’t that you are insecure about your work; it’s more about getting what you deserve, so don’t shy away from the appreciation when it comes your way now. Even if being in the spotlight makes you slightly uncomfortable, graciously accept the acknowledgment that is offered.

 

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

This is a great time to enroll in a new course of study now that the Moon is traveling through your 9th House of Higher Education. This can also encourage you to read a book about a philosophy, a political perspective or a religion that is beyond your normal scope. Thankfully, you are able to integrate new ideas into your current thinking without feeling as if your intellectual foundations are being threatened. Remain open to changing your mind as your old boundaries dissolve. Expanding your horizons is a healthy expression of your confidence.

 

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You might grow more anxious today as you watch your stability begin to slowly crumble. The Sun’s conjunction with nebulous Neptune can be great for daydreaming, yet it also makes you feel as if you’re not in complete control of your own mind. Instead of trying to snap back to reality, give yourself permission to relax and imagine what you would do if nothing held you back.

 

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You must pay careful attention to what you do today because you can move so fast that you’ve done something before you even thought about the consequences. Unfortunately, clearing up even a simple misunderstanding will take precious time and energy, so it’s much smarter to stop and think so you can get it right the first time around.

 

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You have a point to make today, yet you might have a tough time being honest about what you want. The Sun-Neptune conjunction activates your 12th House of Hidden Agendas, so you aren’t likely to come right out and say what you’re thinking. Unfortunately, your actions could be more misleading than you intend, leaving you with the prospect of having to go back and untangle a relationship mess. If you cannot tell the whole truth now, it’s better to say nothing at all.
