Your daily horoscopes for Thursday February 22, 2024

Aries (March 21-April 19) daily horoscope for Thursday February 22

Today’s skies feature a rare and heart-opening mashup of loving Venus and your ruler, fervid Mars, in your eleventh house of interconnectivity. These cosmic twin flames haven’t sailed together in two years, and today’s jam session could change your relationship with some key people in your life. How have you been hoping one of those bonds might shift—and what steps can YOU take to move it in that direction?

Taurus (April 20-May 20) daily horoscope for Thursday February 22

Creatrix Venus forms a rare alignment with energizing Mars in your professional tenth house, giving you the vision and motivation to follow a dream. Assuming you have the confidence in your offerings, reach out to influential people and tap your social network for mutually beneficial introductions. You owe it to potential clients and associates to share your message with them. Are you crystal-clear about certain aspects that need to change in a relationship—but haven’t talked to the other person about them yet? So what are you waiting for? These things don’t shift by themselves.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) daily horoscope for Thursday February 22

Today’s boundary-melting mashup of open-minded Venus and intrepid Mars in your expansive ninth house may just broaden the focus on your viewfinder. Any place where you’ve felt stuck or restricted could get blown wide open, giving you a vast and limitless purview. This might be a radical shift in attitude about an upcoming trip, taking the plunge on a course or certification program or perhaps hanging a shingle and launching Gemini, Inc. Cross-cultural connections could heat up quickly under this spell, so let your gaze wander beyond your usual sphere of influence.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) daily horoscope for Thursday February 22

Today, a rare sync-up of the love planets—vulnerable Venus and passionate Mars—in your eighth house of soul merging won’t be happy with superficial… anything. This is the moment you’ve been waiting for (whether you realize it or not) to shift your whole world with one sincere conversation! The flip side? Hold it in and you might delay—or never get—what you want. Trust that the fused energy of these planets supports you in taking a leap of faith. And while they can light the spark, they can’t do the work for you. If you want it, ask for it!

Leo (July 23-August 22) daily horoscope for Thursday February 22

Today is full of amorous adventures and soul bonding, begging the question: Are you ready? A rare merger of love planets Venus and Mars in your partnership house can help you see past petty annoyances and “imperfections” and truly appreciate your love interest’s greatest qualities. Savor what you’ve got and use this as a bridge to go deeper and take things to the next level. If there’s something you need to express, this is a wonderful time to do that with confidence. This same self-assurance can help single Lions let someone know how they feel or put yourself out there a little less “invisibly.”

Virgo (August 23-September 22) daily horoscope for Thursday February 22

Renew your commitment to luxurious self-care today as beautifying Venus spins into an exact conjunction with energizing Mars in Leo and your house of health and service. You’ll enjoy working up a good sweat while adding a new dimension of pleasure to your workouts—AND to your eating habits. One small but significant way to shift the energy is to bring more awareness to each moment, whether you’re preparing a meal or lacing your cross-trainers. And if you can tap bae or a love interest to tag along, so much the better!

Libra (September 23-October 22) daily horoscope for Thursday February 22

Passion is the name of your game as lusty Mars joins forces with your ruler, sensual Venus, in your amorous fifth house. Bottom line? This could be one of the most romantically experimental days of your year, so waste no time overthinking every move. Single Libras will have a most venturesome day and especially evening, but you need to get in the right mindset, which, frankly, shouldn’t be too hard. Attached? Dress up just for each other and plan a romantic—and flirtatious—evening alone, at home or a favorite spot.

Scorpio (October 23-November 21) daily horoscope for Thursday February 22

There’s no such thing as “too close” today as seductive Venus dances into a cozy conjunction with passionate Mars, your co-ruler. As they canoodle in your domestic fourth house, talks may turn to cohabitation, meeting the parents or another sweet, soulful expression of love. Take an objective look around Chateau Scorpio and note areas where you’d like to make some upgrades. You don’t have to knock down walls to do some home improvements; in fact, less can definitely be more!

Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) daily horoscope for Thursday February 22

Borders blur as love planets Venus and Mars unite in Aquarius and turn on the lights in your social third house. A (formerly?) platonic pal might suddenly be the hottest person in your line of sight—or at least the only one you seem to be able to focus on. If you’re both unattached and wouldn’t be putting a solid friendship at risk, why NOT explore? Or just slide into people’s DMs and see what intrigue you can get up to. If you are in a solid union, enjoy the flirty banter but stop there. Your impulse control is NOT at its peak under these seductive skies.

Capricorn (December 22-January 19) daily horoscope for Thursday February 22

Today’s stars deliver a true (and truly exciting) epiphany: You CAN find “stable” and “sexy” in the same person! A rare conjunction between lovebirds Venus and Mars lands in experimental Aquarius and your sensual second house. Suddenly security feels like a heady aphrodisiac. Sure, the rebels will always raise your pulse, but right now, you’re happy to keep them assigned to the friend category. Attached? Make dinner reservations and discuss exciting future plans while feeding each other pasta.

Aquarius (January 20-February 18) daily horoscope for Thursday February 22

Game ON! Intergalactic love birds Venus and Mars reunite for a one-day-only conjunction in your sign. They haven’t connected like this since 2022, so this homecoming is sure to be special! Whatever you’re trying to accomplish will be riding a cosmic tailwind today, so take a risk, even if you don’t feel 100 percent ready. In the “fake-it-till-you-make-it” category, bring your sunniest and most enthusiastic attitude to every undertaking and watch how contagious that can be. With the right perspective, you can help people see new possibilities. Single? Sparks could fly with someone who’s as charismatic as you are. Just watch for unspoken competition.

Pisces (February 19-March 20) daily horoscope for Thursday February 22

Forget about keeping a steely facade or dishing out any love tough today. Thanks to a rare (once-every-other-year) mashup between love planet Venus and impassioned Mars in your twelfth house of intuition and mystical connections, you may not be able to hide your feelings—or hold back the waterworks when they come. Steer clear of haters and manipulators and connect—deeply!—with your intimate peeps. Your heart will be wide open, and you’ll be willing to be vulnerable and trusting. If you can steal some time for yourself, grab your journal or guitar and create without self-editing. Incredible downloads await!
