Horoscopes: Monday, Feb. 26, 2024

ARIES (March 21-April 19). The scene really needs you, though the others may not give you the credit or attention you deserve. The truth is, things will not progress without you. You know what you’re doing. Go on and give things a push.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’ll do as you said you would, even if the only one you said it to was your own mirror image. That person is, after all, always watching and probably counting on the results you promised.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Generosity serves you well now. However much you’re expected to give, you’ll double it. You’re not trying to prove anything; you just know that nothing exciting comes from meeting an expectation. You’re all about being extraordinary.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You know an excellent idea when it comes into your world, and you’ll follow up immediately. Before you know it, you’re onto an interesting project, one that seems to create its own momentum.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You turn in a repeat performance because it’s your style, it’s comfortable to you and you’re good at it — that’s branding. Then you’ll change it up. This keeps everyone on their toes. People get desensitized to typical experiences.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). While one part of you is engaged in the business at hand, another part of you is quietly observing the overall direction of an interaction. This sophistication is precisely what allows you to strategize.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You know what it’s like to come to the impasse and realize someone has to back down, and it’s probably not going to be you. It’s the kind of choice you make out of wisdom. Why expend your energy needlessly when you can side step?

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It does feel as though somewhere along the line, the thing that was dear to you went adrift, and now it’s just beyond your reach. But don’t worry; nothing is lost. This is just a good reason to stretch yourself.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Relationships bond through a process of braiding. They pull apart and weave together at different points in the journey. There’s a rhythm to it. Abiding by the pattern will keep things lovely and strong.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’re not really in competition for resources; there is plenty to go around. You are in competition for something, though, and it will be prudent to name exactly what it is. You have a better chance at winning when you know what game you’re playing.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Developing discipline is no fun, which is pretty much the point. You embrace the drudgery of those first minutes of getting yourself in motion so you can later embrace the reality of your dreams sprung to life.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You remember when you didn’t know the road, and now you walk it as though the map was etched on your heart. Your guidance will be crucial to someone’s safe passage. Like a shepherd, you’ll often lead the flock by walking behind them.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Feb. 26). You’re more capable than ever, and you’ll enjoy what you can create from a position of power, even though it sometimes feels like the sources and forces are working through you. More highlights: finding what was lost, six gifts of money, and a lovely scenery change and beauty that awakes and invigorates you. Aries and Capricorn adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 25, 1, 30, 21 and 6.
