Weekly Horoscopes February 19-25
Cue the tropical house and get ready to drift away, astro babes. With the Sun now in magical mermaid Pisces and this week’s Waxing Moon in gem-studded Gemini amping up the shimmery, curious vibrations, it’s time for a magical mystery tour through our own emotional landscapes.
Both Pisces and Gemini energy are “mutable”- they adapt, learn, and shift with our evolution. Like life-sized mood rings, they ask us to see every story that’s unfolding from a million, prismatic angles. Think of that feeling you get becoming oh so tiny as you lay down beneath blankets of stars, or lose yourself wandering beside a mountain. This week, embrace the sensation of being a dazzling speck.
You are changing, cosmic cuties. And all you have to do is let it all be true, moment by moment, and let yourself catch the light like a firefly. Contour. Highlight. And believe in your ability to glow from every angle.

Rallying Cry:
I celebrate my right to simply let it all be.
Power Moves:
This week’s Waxing Moon sidles into your home zone of deep emotional security and roots, and the message is to simply sit back and let it all be. More than many other babes on the astro blocks, you know how to drift away and retreat when necessary. But this week, let this feel like an absolute celebration rather than exile. Treat your whole week like a sleepaway camp inside your own consciousness. Clear your calendar. Drop the “should's.” There is a lost art to this kind of celebration and there will be plenty of voices inside your head telling you that you’re avoiding responsibility or that you should be breaking a sweat. Don’t listen to them. There is magic in the moments of absolute stillness. And if it feels right, invite your besties into your private lair, too. Dance and howl beneath this Moon like untamable creatures. There is medicine in the madness.

Rallying Cry:
I already know the answer I seek.
Power Moves:
Are you in information overload, Aries? Have you asked a million friends, Google’ed the issue into oblivion, and worn your hands raw shuffling Tarot and oracle card decks? Guess what, fire babe? You already know the answer. Truly. Deeply. With the Moon growing large in your zone of communication and speech, there is a revelation ripening, and it’s one you’ve known about for a long time. Maybe you’ve tried to cover it up with mental maneuvers. Maybe there are seemingly a million reasons that you don’t want it to be true, or think you’re not ready to receive the message. This is simply static. You are wiser than your little ego sometimes wants you to know. But this week, you’re ready to let it be known. Strip down the layers and uncover what already lives at the core.

Rallying Cry:
Creating clear boundaries connects me to my highest worth.
Power Moves:
Think of this week as a trip into a human-sized jewelry box, Taurus. What kinds of beautiful baubles do you want to surround yourself with? How can you create the most luxurious, velvet lining to rest in? Make this container and then slip inside and enjoy the sensation of self-sufficient rest. With the Waxing Moon activating your zone of worthiness and stability, this is a moment to clearly learn your “no's” and start using them. Simplify your schedule. Stand your ground. Tuck into your box and lock it up if you have to. This doesn’t have to last forever. Just let yourself have this sense of being sealed off for the moment, as you incubate your diamonds and pearls, and commit to the precious process of not taking on anything that’s not truly yours.

Rallying Cry:
I am ready to curiously climb outside of the comfortable.
Power Moves:
With the Waxing Moon in your sign this week, gemstone, this is the moment to start leveling up and feeling into where you’ve been keeping yourself a bit too comfy and playing it safe. You are growing something new right now and that’s absolutely scary. Acknowledge that this expansion scares you. Name it. Flip the light switch on and expose it. And then move towards it anyway. This may mean stepping out and away from the people and situations you think of as shelter. You are leaving home, metaphorically speaking, and those first steps, those first goodbyes, are going to feel deeply challenging. But there’s also a little sparkle inside your soul right now. You can feel it. That excited tremor that says you’ve got to travel out to the edge of the known, and then one step farther. Follow that feeling.

Rallying Cry:
New forms are birthed through formlessness.
Power Moves:
Retreat, dear Cancer. Fly away. Slip away. Tuck into some sheets and let yourself have ample time and space for completely losing all sense of structure. With the Waxing Moon lighting up your dream zone of surrender and release, there is absolutely nothing you need to “figure out” or action right now. Un-grip around any feeling that a choice has to be made on someone else’s timeline. There are decisions coming up right now, but your pros and cons mind, and your people pleasing mind, are not the places your answers will come from. It’s a week for psychic hygiene- the sense that you can really clean yourself out from other people’s emotional issues by physically removing yourself and letting your own process rise to the surface. Turn your ringer off. Turn the screen off. And enter the strange sweetness of your own inner world.

Rallying Cry:
Getting powered up on the future helps me heal the past.
Power Moves:
With the Waxing Moon activating your zone of neon-bright future visions, this is your week to step way outside the usual groves and really imagine all of the wild directions your life could take. Think of it as one of those elementary school career weeks. You have every last option. You’re perceived aptitude or previous training doesn’t even matter. What’s igniting you right now? What makes your feel like you’re clad in Christmas lights and fairy dust? Actually picture yourself inhabiting the life you want and know that this process is instructing your cells about how to believe that it’s already true. There is an Emerald City just on the edge of the horizon and the more you move towards its glimmer, the more your past pain turns to gold.

Rallying Cry:
Stepping into my self-sufficiency happens when I loosen the controls.
Power Moves:
With the Waxing Moon getting ever riper in your zone of power moves and board rooms, there is serious corporate cosmic energy available to you this week. But it starts with you loosening your grip around the way you think it ought to be. This doesn’t mean you need to lose your crystal visions or ideals completely, or give up on your high-minded standards. It simply means that there is some real deliciousness on its way to you, and that you won’t get to fully enjoy it if you’re worried about it being not exactly as you’ve ordered. Let yourself truly taste the sweetness of what’s arriving and celebrate your success fully, in whatever form it arrives. And know that you don’t even have to share it, if you’re not ready. Cultivate moments that are for you and you, alone.

Rallying Cry:
The magic happens when I commit to unlearning.
Power Moves:
With the Waxing Moon activating your zone of philosophical beliefs this week, the spotlight is on both learning and unlearning. Where have you started to harden around the way you think it is or should be? This week, commit to being a babe in the woods instead, a fresh student of your own life, who’s showing up with a suitcase full of sharpened pencils and an eager glowing face turned towards all of the information downloads that are coming your way. And know that this kind of information is instinctively arriving. You can’t sit down and “think really hard” and discover the solution right now. Head into nature. Paint. Sing. Think through color and smell. The answers are tucked in where you least expect them.

Rallying Cry:
My instincts know exactly what’s ready to go and what’s ready to grow.
Power Moves:
As the Waxing Moon sparks your naturally-aligned zone of intimacy and instinct, there are big reveals on the horizon for you this week. This marks a critical stage of your journey to trust your gut, and to feel into what areas of your life you’re not willing to compromise on any more. The road has been arduous. And now, you’ve got the chance to mine all that knowledge and use it to light the way forward. There are things that just aren’t sitting right with you and you’re absolutely ready to give em up and turn em loose. Take the time that you need to do this, but accept that a primal purge is upon you. You won’t know the new path that’s coming in just yet. You can’t know, by design. But for it to arrive, you’ve first got to release the outmoded and get ready for the blooms that are already gestating far beneath the surface of your earth.

Rallying Cry:
Facing my shadow head on leads to the light.
Power Moves:
This is a sparkling, tender week for you to courageously snack on whatever has been causing you anxiety, sweet pony. With the Waxing Moon activating your zone of partnerships and relating, this may very well arrive in the package of a person. Consider the many uses of projection. Often, we encounter beings who challenge us because they represent parts of us we may not be ready to fully meet yet, or fully integrate. Let this feel like a homecoming this week, Sag. Invite all the visitors to your table, even if you don’t think you’re quite ready to face their echoes inside yourself. And know that this shadow work doesn’t have to be so damn heavy. It can be a ballroom dance. A pas de deux. And if anyone is up for a dance party, it’s certainly you.

Rallying Cry:
Transformation begins by seeing open doors everywhere.
Power Moves:
Are you feeling trapped or stifled, dear Capricorn? Is there a sense that all of the air has been sucked out of the room, or that there’s simply no more solutions? With the Waxing Moon inhabiting your zone of daily work, health, and humbling, it could seem like an endless stream of grays with no chance of upgrading to a more saturated color palette. This is absolutely not the case, Cappy, and if anyone can commit to doing the mental pushups to change their consciousness, it’s most decidedly you. There are times in life to absolutely work with and accept limitations. But right now, you’ve got the chance to draw a sidewalk chalk window and door where you think there is only a wall. There is a far easier solution than you’ve been imagining. Drop it for a few days. Change the curtains on your window. And then swap out your story and set yourself free.

Rallying Cry:
When I strengthen my creative muscles, I birth more joy.
Power Moves:
As the Waxing Moon grows juicy in your zone of playfully passionate projects, you are ripening on the vine, radical creatrix. Let yourself be fully immersed in this artistic process, whatever you’re gestating right now. This doesn’t even have to be clear for you in this moment. It may be a relationship. It may be a defined work of art. Or it may simply be a way of moving through your day that feels new and shiny and alive. This is the moment when you might start to doubt. You might think to yourself, “Well, if it feels so good, it can’t be true, it can’t last, I don’t deserve it.” Rest when you need to. Let these old tapes play out. And then get ready for the push towards that juiciness. That meatiness. You’re more than ready for full color living.
