Your daily horoscopes for Saturday February 17, 2024

Aries (March 21-April 19) daily horoscope for Saturday February 17

Don’t form impressions based solely on appearances this Saturday while Venus and mysterious Pluto are gathering in your cooperation sector. Reserve judgment of others, but at the same time, don’t be an open book yourself. Set the bar high if you’re going to team up with people; you shouldn’t jump right in and hope for the best under this suspect starmap. Come up with a clear set of qualifications you’re looking for, and then do your due diligence on the candidates. Your research might reveal an unexpected ringer! If you’re hoping to make a style statement this Sunday, try “pajama dressing” once the Sun drifts into Pisces and spends four weeks in your restful, healing twelfth house. Don’t worry about losing your edge! Slip under the radar until Aries season begins on March 19. Start a yoga or meditation practice, make art and go to bed early. Your dreams could be particularly active, containing powerful messages and divinely inspired downloads. When you do have energy to spare, tie up loose ends and give your storage areas a thorough decluttering. Releasing old stuff opens up physical AND psychic space.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) daily horoscope for Saturday February 17

The brass ring is yours for the taking, Toro! Your ruler, charm agent Venus, joins forces with indomitable Pluto in your ambition province this Saturday, enabling you to make an amazing impression wherever you aim. Keep a high profile to ensure you’re noticed, and show your willingness to work hard and assume more responsibility. Chatting up key players never hurts, either. But stay aboveboard in all your dealings, since Pluto can lure you down a slippery slope if your motives aren’t entirely pure to begin with. The Sun beams into Pisces this Sunday, setting off a month that’s perfect for networking, collaborating and experimenting with new techniques. Wake-up call to Bulls for the coming four weeks: If you’re forging ahead alone, you’re slowing yourself down. Connect to thought leaders for inspiration and organize team projects. Online searches could yield unexpected delights. Circulate on the apps, whether you’re looking for a job or a supportive community for your wellness goals. If you have something to teach or share, think “lights, camera, livestream!”

Gemini (May 21-June 20) daily horoscope for Saturday February 17

Zip it, Twin! Words can wound this Saturday, when genial Venus gets caught in calculating Pluto’s grips. With their meetup taking place in your candid ninth house, you’re tempted to share blunt observations, possibly with the intention of “just trying to help.” But the person on the receiving end is liable to feel attacked. And even you, playful Gem, could reach a breaking point and go off on someone. Give everyone plenty of leeway on a day like today, and don’t jump to conclusions until you have all the intel. This Sunday, the Sun begins its four-week trek through Pisces and your ambitious tenth house. Elevate your perspective and aim high! If you’ve spent the last month checking out new possibilities and avenues, pick the most promising—and profitable—option on the menu. Then direct all your energy there. No matter where you are on your timeline, you’re poised to make a power move before March 19. Play publicist and find your angle, then craft a compelling “brand story” that puts your name on everyone’s lips!

Cancer (June 21-July 22) daily horoscope for Saturday February 17

Keep your guard up, Crab! Gullible Venus bumps into penetrating Pluto today, highlighting the sinister side of certain individuals. Covert ops are mysterious Pluto’s domain, so you might be tipped off to some nefarious goings-on. Listen to your intuition rather than brushing it off. Do a little digging (or a lot!) until you have all the facts you need to determine what the real deal is here. Maybe the villain of the story isn’t such a bad guy after all. If you find yourself typing “Airstream rentals” into a search this Sunday, dive right down that rabbit hole. As the energizing Sun blasts into Pisces and your worldly ninth house, it fuels your wanderlust until March 19. Suddenly nothing sounds more appealing than escaping from the norm, preferably to a geographic location with completely different topography and customs. Since this is a highly independent solar cycle, a solo sojourn could be in the cards. Staying put? Journey in the metaphoric sense by taking a virtual masterclass or developing a business idea.

Leo (July 23-August 22) daily horoscope for Saturday February 17

Don’t let jealousy poison a relationship this Saturday. Loving Venus bangs into control-freak Pluto in your interpersonal realm, which could cast a shadow over a close connection. If your S.O. is acting a little shady, don’t make assumptions; ask questions. Then listen—not only to their reply, but to your own inklings about it. But stop short of spying, tempting as it may be. It could backfire if their secret is something sweet, like a surprise trip they’re arranging for the two of you. As the Sun slips into Pisces and your intimate eighth house this Sunday, your “sign” might switch to “Do Not Disturb.” You’ll certainly crave more private time between now and March 19—and more sexytime with a special plus-one. Slip off the radar to make art or love (or both). This accelerated urge to merge could lead to talks of engagements, business deals, even a shared bank account. While you’re in such a focused mode, why not do a little tax planning or debt consolidation, or check on the status of your 401(k)? A large sum of money could come in—or go out—in the next four weeks, and a little fiscal savvy will go a long way.

Virgo (August 23-September 22) daily horoscope for Saturday February 17

Your reflexes could be a little too quick this Saturday if you sense trouble. Tender Venus becomes enmeshed with suspicious Pluto, increasing the odds that you’ll uncover something that doesn’t add up. Instead of running toward the drama (which might be going down in your workplace, by the way), it might be better to stay out of it. Even if you think you can be of assistance, getting pulled into a mess that has nothing to do with you would be a waste of your precious energy. You don’t have to drop your personal priorities, Virgo, but starting Sunday, make sure to open up slots for the most important people in your life. As the Sun swings into Pisces, it shoots its life-giving beams into your seventh house of partnerships. If you’ve been taking anyone for granted, make amends—in a very demonstrative way. Looking for a plus-one? The next month is ripe with opportunities to connect with a keeper who shares your vision of life and love. Business and creative collaborations will also thrive under this solar spell. Why struggle alone, Virgo, when pairing up is so much sweeter?

Libra (September 23-October 22) daily horoscope for Saturday February 17

You can seduce anyone you’ve got your eye on this Saturday, thanks to lovely Venus rendezvousing with intense Pluto in your romance zone. Just because you CAN doesn’t mean you should, though, Virgo. Be mindful of how you use this superpower. No batting your lash extensions at someone who’s unavailable just for the momentary thrill. And no flirting in front of your S.O. to make them jealous. Don’t get us wrong: We don’t think YOU’RE a schemer…we just know Pluto can be! Late Sunday, the Sun departs your indulgent fifth house and powers into Pisces and your sixth house of healthy, efficient living. Blow the dust bunnies off those dumbbells and, at least for the next four weeks, commit to NOT using your Peloton as a clothing rack. Between now and March 19, put the focus on sharpening any fuzzy edges in your life. You can get your schedule, finances and fitness back into fighting shape. Need a dietary detox? Cut back on acidic foods like sugar, wheat and dairy. Watch the perfectionism, though. Moderation is key, especially for a Libra!

Scorpio (October 23-November 21) daily horoscope for Saturday February 17

Did someone get your hackles up, Scorpio? You’re ready to protect your turf this Saturday, when tender Venus bangs into your ruler, prickly Pluto, in your fourth house of family and feelings. You’re in no mood to deal with the offender diplomatically. Reach out to someone you trust who doesn’t have skin in the game. A venting sesh will help you blow off steam, but what you really need is helpful advice. Ask your confidante which road leads to peace. Believe it or not, you’re not the best one to answer that today! The Sun sails into Pisces and your lovestruck fifth house late Sunday, doling out a month of magic moments. Missed the V-Day boat—or just longing for another cruise around Heartthrob Harbor? If Cupid passed over your port, fret not! Single Scorpios could warm up the remaining days of winter in quite the memorable way. This solar spell can revitalize existing attractions by helping you find a healthier balance between “me” and “we.” Cast off the winter blues with a glamorous style upgrade. During these fame-fueled four weeks, you could find yourself in front of the camera, ready or not!

Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) daily horoscope for Saturday February 17

Words can pack a wallop this Saturday, Sagittarius, so stay alert. Prickly Pluto is convening with diplomatic Venus in your communication province, revving up your determination to say your piece. Be careful not to twist words or try to gain control over anyone. You can make a strong enough impression just by conveying your message candidly. But plan your speech ahead of time so intense emotions don’t get the better of you and overshadow your truth. As the global nomad of the zodiac, “anywhere but home” is your usual destination of choice. But you’ll enjoy a sweet bout of domesticity between now and March 19 as the Sun takes its annual sojourn through Pisces and your fourth house of nesting. If the past month has been a marathon of meetings and brainstorming sessions, hang up your thinking cap and pause to integrate all this new data. Don’t confuse quiet time with slacking, however. Letting an idea gestate without pressure to “blossom” is like planting a seed in fertile soil. A month from now, something truly genius could sprout.

Capricorn (December 22-January 19) daily horoscope for Saturday February 17

Go over financial documents with a fine-tooth comb this Saturday, when money magnet Venus bumps into piercing Pluto in your second house of fiscal resources. Did you remember to cancel that software subscription after the free trial? What’s the REAL interest rate on the credit card offer you’re considering? If you’re engaged in biz negotiations and can’t find an off-ramp, take a timeout. Don’t dip below your bottom line in a compromise. If you don’t look out for your own interests, who will? You’ve been an industrious Goat for the past four weeks, but starting Sunday night, it’s time to loosen up. The Sun moves into Pisces and your third house of communication, welcoming a lively and curious energy back into your life. Stop analyzing data and start engaging in actual conversations. There’s strength (and inspiration!) in numbers, whether you’re part of a business mastermind group or a fitness coach’s 21-day challenge. Partnership opportunities will pop up at every turn. If you think there’s potential, test the waters with a small trial project.

Aquarius (January 20-February 18) daily horoscope for Saturday February 17

Your charisma is off the charts this Saturday, thanks to a summit in Aquarius being held by charm-oozing Venus and shrewd Pluto. You’re in the driver’s seat, and just sending out a subtle signal that you’re in charge will inspire people to follow your lead. Use your clout judiciously and set a good example for your team. If you bark orders and make unilateral decisions without consulting cohorts, you could have a mutiny on your hands down the line. Sure, you have the last word. But let others weigh in first. Pack in a Sunday funday, Aquarius, because after the sun goes down, birthday season officially ends. The Sun waves farewell to Aquarius until early 2025. It’s been a lively four weeks, but there are important missions waiting to be accomplished. Did you make lofty wishes when you blew out the candles on your cake? Until March 19, the Sun lingers in Pisces and your house of practical magic. Map your brainstorms into tangible action steps. One of those offbeat ideas could turn into a profitable winner when you put structure behind it.

Pisces (February 19-March 20) daily horoscope for Saturday February 17

Try not to be too gullible this Saturday, Pisces. When glib Venus tangoes with mysterious Pluto in your secretive twelfth house, it’ll be hard to read the tea leaves and place your trust in the right people. If you’re tied to anyone dodgy, you could wind up being painted with the same broad brush. You might even get caught up in their nefarious deeds and harm your own image. Do your homework before you confide in another person or outsource an important job. The onus is on THEM to convince you they’re trustworthy. Pisces season begins late Sunday, so get the bubbles on ice. As the Sun moves into your sign until March 19, the world is tuned in to YOUR channel. Shift a personal project to front-burner status. You’ll feel especially motivated to share your ideas and dreams with the world, and it won’t be hard to find a receptive audience. After a sleepy and sluggish month, you’re getting a solar-powered reset of your energy stores. If you want something, don’t wait around. The squeaky wheel gets the oil. In all areas of life, you’ll need more breathing room. Don’t forget: Absence really does make the heart grow fonder.
