Your daily horoscopes for Monday February 16, 2026
Aries (March 21-April 19) daily horoscope for Monday February 16
Your can-do attitude is called into action today, but you may need to set some parameters around what you’re willing to take on. Is someone in a group hoping you’ll cover for their lackluster efforts? Maybe you were prepared to pick up the slack in the past, but…boundaries! You’re not a bottomless well of energy that they can keep drawing from. And if your finances are feeling the effects of other people’s behavior, draw a line to protect your personal resources. This is no time to be shy, Ram. Let people know what your limits are.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) daily horoscope for Monday February 16
Even if you’re ready and willing to take the helm, don’t rush to
be “the dependable one” today. As the Aquarius Sun in your
responsibility corner forms a stressful square with renegade Uranus in
your sign, you’ll rightfully chafe at being burdened with more than your
fair share of the workload. Of course, if you’ve already offered to
handle certain tasks, don’t back out. A wiser strategy would be to make
sure the weight is evenly distributed so you have some time for fun. If
someone dropped the ball, call them on it instead of quietly
compensating for them.
Gemini (May 21-June 20) daily horoscope for Monday February 16
Stay on your toes, Twin. During
today’s stressful square between the egocentric Sun and unpredictable
Uranus, another person might try to play you like a Stradivarius. If you
catch yourself diminishing the value of your work, consider it a
glaring red flag. A savvy manipulator could be gaslighting you in order
to get a better deal. Even if there IS room for improvement, that’s no
reason to beat yourself up. If an assignment is too much of a stretch
for you, pass on it instead of wasting time and energy faking your way
through it.
Cancer (June 21-July 22) daily horoscope for Monday February 16
You can’t cram for a loyalty test, Cancer,
but you might need to make a quick decision about how far you’re willing
to go to prove that you care. Today’s stressful square between the
egocentric Sun and unpredictable Taurus, someone seems to expect that
you’ll jump through hoops to prove how devoted you are. If you want to
get an A+, remember where your bread is buttered. Make your inner circle
top priority, even if a distracting newcomer regales you with their
fascinating life story.
Leo (July 23-August 22) daily horoscope for Monday February 16
Responsibilities are piling up,
Leo, and this is not the day to shirk them. As your ruler, the radiant
Sun, squares off with unpredictable Uranus, you need to keep your
professional standing strong. Get on top of any brewing crises and
triple check to make sure everyone in the chain of command is on the
same page. But before you bow out of a nighttime plan to deal with a
work crisis, be sure nobody’s dumping their duties onto your plate. A
talented, generous colleague you may be, nobody really wins if you
sacrifice a dinner date for something that can wait until tomorrow.

Virgo (August 23-September 22) daily horoscope for Monday February 16
Should you keep your nose to the grindstone or blow off an assignment
until tomorrow? Today’s chaotic square between the Sun and rebellious
Uranus won’t make it hard for you to concentrate. Do what you can to
rejig your schedule so you can enjoy maximum freedom today. If there’s
too much on your plate, try working in sprints with regular breaks (and
rewards!) throughout the day. Give yourself something to look forward to
after work, whether it’s a 90-minute massage or a vegan ice cream
sundae.
Libra (September 23-October 22) daily horoscope for Monday February 16
People may expect you to be psychic today as
the ego-driven Sun clashes with unpredictable Uranus. Even if you think
you can decode the mixed signals flying your way, guessing will only
muddy the waters. Skip the mind reading and stick to plain talk. If
someone’s actions and words don’t line up, call it out—kindly. Chances
are, they have no idea how confusing they’re being. Keep the
conversation honest without rushing to judgment.
Scorpio (October 23-November 21) daily horoscope for Monday February 16
Getting to know someone new? You might feel tempted to fast-track the
bonding process and spill your deepest secrets—especially if they’re
encouraging you to open up. What you actually need to do is pump the
brakes. As the Aquarius Sun in your private fourth house locks into a
tense square with disruptive Uranus in your partnership zone,
oversharing could leave you wishing you’d kept a few cards closer to
your chest. And if they’re unloading on you, remember: you’re not
obligated to play therapist. Let this honeymoon phase unfold at a slower
pace so you can decide whether you truly want a backstage pass to their
drama.
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) daily horoscope for Monday February 16
Trying to stay on track with your healthy
habits, Archer? Hold that line today. As the Sun in your mindset zone
locks into a tense square with unpredictable Uranus in your wellness
sector, temptations—and maybe a little peer pressure—could lure you off
course. Sure, you hate missing out, but ditching your plan could leave
you drained. Loop friends in on your goals instead. The real ones will
cheer you on, meet you halfway, or happily let you do your thing without
guilt.

Capricorn (December 22-January 19) daily horoscope for Monday February 16
Love and money may not make the happiest of
bedfellows today as the Sun in your value zone tangles with
unpredictable Uranus in your romance sector. If a financial convo starts
to feel charged, hit pause before pointing fingers. Do a little money
housekeeping first so you can come armed with solutions, not
accusations. Unattached Goats: Watch for signs that someone’s shopping
for a sponsor instead of a soulmate.

Aquarius (January 20-February 18) daily horoscope for Monday February 16
Put self-care at the
top of the list today as the Sun in your sign clashes with your ruler,
rebellious Uranus. You’re not trying to be selfish, you’re just running
low on bandwidth. Don’t disappear on your crew, but be honest about
needing some solo time to recharge. They might grumble, but they’ll
live. And honestly? You’re no help to anyone when your tank is on
“empty,” so give yourself permission to refuel.
Pisces (February 19-March 20) daily horoscope for Monday February 16
Sometimes,
your social battery just hits zero—and today could be one of those
moments. As the Sun in your retreat zone clashes with chaotic Uranus,
you may feel a sudden urge to pull back and recharge. Honor it. Don’t
stress about what people will think if you skip out or leave early. A
little restorative solitude now means you’ll come back warmer, clearer,
and ready to reconnect once your spirit feels replenished.
