Horoscopes: Tuesday, Feb. 20, 2024

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Remember when you wanted something and didn’t get it, then you stopped wanting it and it showed up at your door? It’s happening again. If you can turn down the heat on your desire, you’ll improve your position.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). There’s such a thing as too much agreement. When the whole group agrees, one has to wonder if it’s because individuals are afraid to disagree. Is dissent being punished? Is one person doing all the thinking?

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). It’s good that it’s taking you a while to learn the ropes and rise in an organization. Typically, the follow-up to a gradual ascent to the top is a long tenure there. You’re learning what you need to know to sustain your position.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). In some way, you’ll be betting on yourself to win the situation. You’ll do your research to whatever extent you can. You don’t mind slim odds; you just want to know exactly what they are.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Set up get-togethers and gatherings. Prompt people to extend the invite. Socializing and networking will benefit you in exciting and unforeseen ways. The more new people you meet, the luckier you’ll be.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). People act differently in their homes than they do out in the general public. There’s someone you only know in a public setting. You would like to learn more facets of this person. Try and get a view of their domestic life.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Without struggle, you wouldn’t be able to fully realize your potential. It’s resistance that makes you stronger, that helps you lift off and gives you the contrast you need to recognize when you’re winning.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’ll be royalty, changing the rules of the land to suit your stance and fit your needs. You have every right to control your immediate environment. If you stretch further, boundary issues will come into play.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Share what inspires you. Whether you simply forward it or put your take on things, you’ll move someone to take action or have a new thought. As your ideas connect with others, they could lead to real changes and help shape a new way of thinking.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Getting too deep into the minutiae will burn you out before you get to the part that makes a difference. Start with the big stuff. Hop in with broad strokes and save the details for the end.
