Horoscopes: 18 – 24 February 2014

ARIES {Mar 21–Apr 20}
Your ruling planet Mars’ protracted transit through your opposite sign of relationship obsessed libra, might make you feel like your love life or all forms of partnership are under the sway of others.

TAURUS {Apr 21–May 21}
With harsh Saturn in your opposite sign of power obsessed Scorpio, you now realise there’s a price to pay for any long term commitments to relationships. As you’re goaded by a cool and detached Mercury, you can re-assess your fears.

GEMINI {May 22–June 21}
With the moon going through the romantic area of your chart, you could feel a little spell bound by all the attention you’re receiving. Drop all the emotionalism and get real.

HCANCER {June 22–July 22}
Domestically you would like things to be all fluffy and cosy at home, but with Mars and your ruler the Moon making forceful waves in your personal space, a home improvement could be the solution for all that pent up emotional energy.

LEO {July 23–Aug 22}
You could be tempted by the dark Moon Lilith to be more experimental than usual. So, your labido could be running at an all time high. Maybe it’s time to define a friendship and take it to a more romantic level? Seduction is your middle name.

VIRGO {Aug 23–Sep 22}
A partners front might be slipping and you can see beneath their mystical bravado, that they’re wounded in some way and in great need of your healing. You mustn’t help them to deceive themselves, remember, you’re the voice of reason.

LIBRA {Sep 23–Oct 22}
With dynamic Mars in your sign, don’t get frustrated, you need to pace yourself. You can have that lover, you can get that promotion, but it’s a question of balancing your needs with others. You don’t need to sugar coat anything.

SCORPIO {Oct 23–Nov 21}
Passion? Maybe, but with Saturn in your sign, you may feel far more inhibited than others might realise. You are laying down the foundations for a more stable future, but don’t put up too many barriers because you could wind up deflecting all the good stuff that’s keen to transform your life.

SAGITTARIUS {Nov 22–Dec 20}
Your ruling planet Jupiter might be making you feel more sensitive than normal, but there’s no need to get emotionally armoured. Go with the flow as you always do and apply that highly philosophical anchor to that romantic or business conundrum and you’ll come up trumps.

CAPRICORN {Dec 21–Jan 19}
Of course you’re very conventional, but maybe it’s time to embrace a more bohemian approach. As your sense of self is being revolutionised, on the one hand, you’ve got to be practical, but maybe a calculated risk in an emotional and/or professional arena will come up trumps.

AQUARIUS {Jan 20–Feb 19}
If you don’t want others to think you’re just being a woolly minded idealist, while cerebral Mercury is retrograding, then maybe it’s time to re-evaluate your stance on world events and your own personal destiny, before espousing anything too radical.

PISCES {Feb 20–Mar 20}
Is it a mystic or a psychiatrist you need to see with Chiron and Neptune in your sign? You’re so attracted to the higher realms of the beyond, but remember Einstein was a Pisces, and a more practical approach can help to show off your genius in a much more considered light.
