Daily Horoscopes for Friday, February 8th

Our words seem intense today, yet we may actually be a bit detached from our emotions. It’s easy to get all worked up and say things that provoke petty conflicts. Thankfully, the Moon’s shift into logical Aquarius at 2:16 pm EST helps us maintain a healthy perspective on our current circumstances. A cool, analytical approach tempers the combative conjunction between messenger Mercury and aggressive Mars, which can heat up our interactions.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

It’s difficult to sit quietly in the back of the room because irrepressible Mars, your key planet, aligns with Mercury the Communicator. You know what you want to say and you think you can inspire others into action. Unfortunately, your message might be confusing unless you have all your facts in order. Avoid overreacting by counting to five before opening your mouth. But don’t worry; you will get the chance to share what’s needed when the time is right.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

You might be the one in the group who stands up and speaks your mind today. Fortunately, you’re able to draw on poetic images and creative visions that are normally beyond your reach. However, you may not feel comfortable with your forceful words, for they can offend your delicate sensibilities even as you say them. Nevertheless, don’t talk yourself out of sharing what’s on your mind. Your friends and associates will appreciate your honesty and your attempts to think outside of the box.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

You may be feeling upset at the way things have gone down at work, but there isn’t much you can do about it today, except talk about it. Expressing your concern with compassion wins you the support you seek as your key planet Mercury joins energetic Mars in your 10th House of Status. Use any means necessary to get your message out there, even if it means shouting it from the rooftop. You could be surprised with the positive response you receive if you are clear and direct in your delivery.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

You are inspired to fight for what you want today, and chances are that you may actually get it. If you ever considered writing a letter about a familiar gripe or going to your boss about a lingering issue, this is the day you’ve been waiting for. However, you could inadvertently offend someone with your uncharacteristically forceful approach. It’s easier to restrain your anger by softening your words than it is to deal with the mess you can make by being carried away with your emotions.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You may feel lighter on your feet today because there’s less responsibility weighing on your shoulders. Nevertheless, you’re not in the mood to play games, and someone who gets in your way might be surprised with the speed and fury of your response. However, defending yourself by going on the offense isn’t as effective now as revealing your true feelings. This time words speak louder than actions.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Sparks may fly if someone oversteps your boundaries today. It really doesn’t matter who you are with now; you might feel as if others are trying to get your goat. You can respond to these situations with a display of anger if you feel the need to protect yourself against the apparent attack. However, the best strategy is to chill out and not take yourself so seriously. Allow a day or two for your perspective to evolve and then readdress the issue.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Although it’s always a good idea to stick with the facts, how you deliver the message is just as important today as what you say. When you put the data you’ve been working on into the report or email, make certain you don’t overstate your position. Even if you are giving a verbal presentation, you can get hotter and more fired up than intended. Naturally, you’re not looking to make any enemies, so keep reminding yourself to tone down your emotions. A subtle touch accomplishes more than a heavy hand.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You have the sweet power of persuasion at the tip of your tongue now. Messenger Mercury aligns with your key planet Mars, adding the strength of conviction to your words. Just don’t come on too strong or you could defeat your own purpose before you even have a chance. However, acknowledging your emotional intensity enables you to communicate your vision in a gentler and more compassionate manner.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

It may feel as if something isn’t quite right, but you can’t put your finger on the source of the problem. You might be afraid that you won’t get your needs met, even if satisfaction is within reach. Some event in the past comes back to haunt you today and you could become discouraged before you even ask for what you want. Remember that this is not history repeating itself. Push through your fears by staying in the here and now.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Quicksilver Mercury catches up with warrior Mars in your 3rd House of Communication today, making it difficult for you to hold your punches. If you have experienced an injustice or are angry with someone, you might be more aggressive than you intend. Pay attention to the tone of your words now because you will be more persuasive with a firm but gentle approach to drive home your point.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You may be more emotional than you prefer when the evocative Moon enters your sign today. Even if you try to avoid complicated feelings, you might be overwhelmed by your reactions now. Don’t resist your changing moods just because they make you uncomfortable; relax and take a ride on the water-slide of life. Things will lighten up after this weekend’s New Moon, enabling you to regain the clarity that comes from an objective perspective.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You aren’t often this pushy, but you are ready to say what needs to be said now as chatty Mercury lines up with feisty Mars in your sign. However, you may not clearly know what you want to communicate because your thoughts are muddled by secret desires. Tone down your rhetoric until you decide your next move. In the meantime, do what you can to untangle your wild imagination from your rational intellect.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Saturday, January 12th

Rules aren’t strong enough to constrain our attractions today, so we should consider how much we’re willing to risk in order to get what we want. Our emotions are on edge as sensual Venus squares electric Uranus, buzzing our bodies with nervous energy. We are tempted to step beyond old limitations as unfulfilled desires pull on our dreams. Meanwhile, the Moon shifts into eclectic Aquarius at 4:01 am EST, reflecting our need for unique expression.

 

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You are wired with the anticipation of doing something daring today, even if others think you’re the epitome of stability. You may feel wild and crazy since your impulsive reactions are even stronger than usual. Nevertheless, you cannot act on every whim. Maintain a sense of responsibility to compensate for your current unconventional desires. Holding an outer posture of reliability enables you to continue chasing your dreams.

 

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

You might begin the day with simple goals, but complications mount as you head in one particular direction because of an irrepressible craving. You don’t want your satisfaction to be delayed as your key planet, Venus, is excited by unpredictable Uranus. Just be careful not to destabilize anything that has enduring importance on your rush toward temporary gratification.

 

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

It seems as if everyone wants to have a good time today and you certainly don’t want to be left out of the fun. You might think you can get away with a clever scheme in your quest for the next thrill, but you may be surprised how fast your mistakes can catch up with you now. Attend to your responsibilities early in the day so you can be free to explore your options for play later on.

 

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Your obligations may feel overwhelming today, but you could still find a way to avoid too much drudgery. Your evasive behavior isn’t necessarily an act of irresponsibility, especially if you are just setting your own personal boundaries. Remember, you don’t always have to take on other people’s worries just because they expect you to do so. Sometimes saying no to someone else is the healthiest expression of self-love.

 

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You may grow frustrated by thinking about how much fun you could have if you ditched your current obligations, jumped bail and declared yourself free. However, nearly anything you do today has immediate repercussions. Remember that it’s easier to contemplate the consequences of your actions before having to deal with a crisis of your own creation.

 

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

If there are issues in your love life that need to be brought out into the open, today may be your lucky day. Just be considerate and express your desires in a rational way that demonstrates your compassionate spirit rather than a selfish attitude. Sparks might fly, but everything should work out as long as you speak from the heart, maintain integrity and act in a kindly matter. The outcome could be more pleasing than you expect.

 

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Unconventional desires can land you in trouble today, but a bit of self-awareness helps you get through the day without too much drama. However, sidestepping an emotional scene proves difficult because unexpected circumstances might sneak up on you. Your attractions may fluctuate wildly before you understand what’s going on. Thankfully, it’s healthy to experience extreme feelings now as long as you avoid acting on any one of them as if it was the ultimate truth.

 

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

It’s hard to maintain your concentration on chores today because enticing social circumstances are very distracting. You don’t need to lose out on all the fun, but previous commitments prevent you from cutting loose as much as you wish. There’s no need to stress about the good times you might be missing since there will be chances for more frivolity soon enough. Instead, be happy wherever you are and with whatever you are doing while secretly planning your escape.

 

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You look like you have both feet planted on the ground, but your creative imagination may be soaring with the birds. Ironically, focusing on what’s happening in the present moment empowers you to let go and follow a stream of consciousness while still maintaining a solid connection with reality. Even if your work is a bit sloppy now, strive to be as original as possible. Thankfully, you will be able to tidy up the details later on.

 

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You may not be able to resist your heart’s desire today. Although logical analysis leads you to the right answers, it might not be sufficient to keep you on the straight and narrow path now. It’s admirable to take the high road by transforming your physical needs into compassionate action. Perhaps self-restraint does lead to the most spiritual path, but keep in mind that you are human. Honoring your eccentricity is also an important part of your current path toward satisfaction.

 

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Amorous Venus squares edgy Uranus today, encouraging you to risk more in your quest for emotional fulfillment and physical satisfaction. You might believe that pursuing a sudden attraction will bring you lasting happiness. However, reckless behavior, at best, only leads to temporary pleasure. Sacrifice a little excitement now for the security of long-term stability.

 

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Your mind is free to go anywhere today as your thoughts play out one possible scenario after another. But it may not be socially acceptable to express every whim. Nevertheless, it’s up to you to find the courage to bring your dreams into full consciousness. Fortunately, you don’t have to tell anyone about your fantasies, nor do you need to act them out now. Simply enjoy the movie in which you are the writer, the director and the star.
