Your daily horoscopes for Saturday February 22, 2025
Aries (March 21-April 19) daily horoscope for Saturday February 22
Go with the flow, Aries—literally. With Mercury in Pisces harmonizing with Mars retrograde in Cancer this weekend, emotions steer the ship. Instead of forcing an agenda, tune in to your instincts. A heartfelt conversation could bring surprising clarity, especially about a home or family situation that’s been weighing on you. Creativity is also running high, so let yourself daydream, journal or dive into an artistic project. If you need a release, a good cry (or a deep stretch) could do wonders. Lean in to what feels healing rather than pushing ahead. The tides are shifting soon, and you’ll be ready to move when the moment is right. You can restore the peace and tranquility on the home front starting Sunday, when your pugnacious ruler, Mars, ends a retrograde that began in drama-elevating Leo on December 6, then slipped back into Cancer and your domestic quarters on January 6. If a relative or roomie has been difficult (and yes, Aries, that’s a euphemism), you might be able to reason with them now. Leave your own anger or resentment at the door and see if you can’t smooth out the kinks. With Mars barreling forward through Cancer until April 18, the time is ripe for a redecorating—or major decluttering—mission. Aries who are ready to relocate could find a new space fast.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) daily horoscope for Saturday February 22
Soft power wins the day this weekend, Taurus. With intuitive Mercury in Pisces flowing into a trine with Mars retrograde in Cancer, your words have a soothing, even mesmerizing effect. A conversation with a friend or sibling could take a surprisingly deep turn, revealing insights you didn’t even know you needed. If you’ve been holding back a heartfelt message, this is a prime moment to express it—just let it flow naturally. Creativity is also heightened, so whether you’re writing, painting or simply curating the perfect playlist, let your imagination lead the way. No need to rush—sometimes the best ideas emerge when you’re simply present in the moment. The best news of the weekend arrives on Sunday as agitator Mars ends a two-and-a-half-month retrograde. A slew of silly miscommunications and WTF blowups could soon be a thing of the past. With the red planet powering forward in Cancer and your cooperative third house until April 18, you’ll be able to redirect debates into negotiations like the pro you are. Refocus to be an agent of change, one who spreads a positive message that brings people together instead of driving them apart!
Gemini (May 21-June 20) daily horoscope for Saturday February 22
With your ruler, Mercury, in Pisces harmonizing with Mars retrograde in Cancer, use this weekend to reflect on what truly makes you feel abundant. Maybe it’s a cozy morning at your favorite cafe, a leisurely stroll through a bookstore or an afternoon spent curating the perfect playlist. Conversations could take a nostalgic turn, bringing unexpected insights about your values. No need to rush—sometimes the best ideas emerge when you give yourself space to simply be. If funds have been slipping between your fingers and friendships have been fraught this winter, you can flip that script starting Sunday! Forceful Mars has been retrograde since December 6, driving up tension in your day-to-day life. And since January 6, it’s been backing through Cancer and your second house of money and security, which might have made it hard for you to gain traction. But now that Mars is resuming forward motion, so can you! Set a couple ambitious yet inspiring goals and craft a game plan to achieve them. You’ve got until April 18 to make headway!
Cancer (June 21-July 22) daily horoscope for Saturday February 22
Widen your lens this weekend, Cancer. Mercury in Pisces is illuminating your ninth house of wisdom and adventure, and this weekend’s trine to Mars retrograde in your sign urges you to see the bigger picture. Maybe you’ve been stuck in a loop of overanalyzing the past, but today offers a chance to shift your perspective. Step away from the familiar—dive into an inspiring book, take a spontaneous day trip or connect with someone who broadens your thinking. If you’ve been hesitant to share an idea or story, this is a great day to put it into words. Trust that what you have to say matters. On Sunday, you can finally figure out whether to stop, go or hang on a sec. If confusion has been your speed pattern for the past two and a half months, you can blame it on (normally) driven Mars, which has been retrograde since December 6. And then when the pugnacious planet backed into your sign on January 6, you may have felt either frozen with indecision or unable to advance to the next step of the game. And hey, Cancer, maybe you needed a break! Forward momentum returns as Mars corrects course and speeds forward through your sign until April 18, bringing major get-up-and-go energy for you to utilize!
Leo (July 23-August 22) daily horoscope for Saturday February 22
Let your intuition lead, Leo. Mercury in Pisces is activating your eighth house of depth and transformation, and its trine to Mars retrograde in your twelfth house of healing stirs up powerful realizations this weekend. Something beneath the surface is ready to be acknowledged—whether it’s an old emotional wound, a creative breakthrough or a truth you’ve been avoiding. Instead of pushing for answers, create space for them to organically emerge. A quiet morning, a deep conversation or even a recalled dream could bring clarity. If you feel drained, honor your need to rest. Sometimes the most profound shifts happen when you allow yourself to simply chill. On Sunday, you might want to send the universe a thank-you note as energizing Mars wraps up a retrograde that began in Leo on December 6, then slipped back into Cancer and your twelfth house of hidden agendas on January 6. If you’ve felt out of step for the past two and a half months, we wouldn’t be surprised. The silver lining? You may have seen someone for who they truly are, and while you might not like what you learned, it’s a valuable piece of knowledge. Before Mars returns to Leo on April 18, proactively apply those lessons, even if that means clearing the decks of people and duties that no longer resonate.

Virgo (August 23-September 22) daily horoscope for Saturday February 22
Lean on your people, Virgo. This weekend’s trine between your ruler, social Mercury, and retrograde Mars in your people houses reminds you that you don’t have to do everything alone. If you’ve been feeling out of sync with a friend, collaborator or significant other, a heart-to-heart could bring things back into balance. Instead of overanalyzing dynamics, try simply asking for what you need. It really might be THAT easy. Sunday brings some order to the Virgo court, at last! You’ve had one stressful winter thanks to intensifier Mars, which has been retrograde since December 6, backing through your twelfth house of hidden agendas and confusion and your eleventh house of community. But today, the fog begins to lift as Mars resumes forward motion. Has a frenemy in supporter’s clothing infiltrated Team Virgo? Competitive Mars has been in your collaborative corner since January 6, making group dynamics a source of stress. Time to turn that around! The red planet will stay in this social sector until April 18, giving you one opportunity after another to find your people or reconnect to a trustworthy group that has your back.
Libra (September 23-October 22) daily horoscope for Saturday February 22
Ease into your weekend, Libra—your body and mind will thank you. With Mercury in Pisces flowing through your sixth house of wellness and Mars retrograde in your tenth house of ambition, today calls for a softer, more intentional approach to self-care. A gentle workout, a long walk or even a mindful cooking session could be just what you need to clear your head. Rest can be just as productive as action. Besides, your ambition will be restored this Sunday. Driven Mars resumes forward motion after being retrograde since December 6 (in Leo) and, since January 6, in Cancer and your career corner. If you’ve felt thwarted or overlooked at work for the past few months, you’ll be thrilled by today’s cosmic news alert. With this course correction, you should feel your professional mojo returning, and opportunities that seemed blocked will open once again. Pro tip: With the red planet here until April 18, pace yourself so you don’t burn out!
Scorpio (October 23-November 21) daily horoscope for Saturday February 22
Indulge in what excites you this Saturday, Scorpio, and X anything “non-obligatory” off your calendar. Mercury in Pisces lighting up your fifth house of creativity and pleasure, and its trine to Mars retrograde in your ninth house of exploration could lead you on an impromptu adventure. If you’ve been feeling stuck, a shift in scenery—maybe to visit a well-traveled entrepreneurial friend—could reignite your inspiration. Follow the fun. If your life has felt like it was in slow-mo (and certain things have been a no-go), that’ll all start to change on Sunday as eager-beaver Mars wraps up a stultifying retrograde that began December 6, ending up in your ninth house of travel, adventure and expansion. If you started developing big plans that went nowhere, you can now resume them and expect better results while Mars revs its engines (sans retrograde) in Cancer until April 18. This course correction could inspire you to book an overseas trip, sign up for a workshop or launch your own business.
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) daily horoscope for Saturday February 22
If you want to excavate some wisdom, look inward this weekend, Sagittarius. Mercury in Pisces is illuminating your fourth house of home and roots, and its trine to Mars retrograde in your eighth house of transformation stirs up deep emotional undercurrents. Reflect on family patterns, past wounds or cycles you’re ready to break. Maybe you’re recognizing a belief about success, love or security that was passed down but no longer serves you. Instead of distracting yourself with busyness, a quiet day of journaling or sharing over breakfast with a confidant could help you process what’s ready to shift. How deep is your love? You might find out starting Sunday as red-blooded Mars FINALLY wraps up a two-and-a-half month retrograde, which will end in your passionate eighth house. While the pugnacious planet was spinning backward (since December 6), you may have dealt with some on-again, off-again energy with a love interest, or perhaps some heavy emotions flooded up and confused matters. But things should get back on an even keel with this course correction. And since both Mars and your eighth house tend to intensify things, your erotic life could go from mild to wild in a heartbeat. Financially, this could bring a green light to pursue a lucrative deal, but that’s no excuse to NOT review the fine print.

Capricorn (December 22-January 19) daily horoscope for Saturday February 22
Clear the air, Capricorn. With Mercury in Pisces sharpening your third-house communication skills and Mars retrograde wrapping up its backspin in your relationship zone, it’s time for a real talk. If tension’s been simmering in a partnership—romantic, business or otherwise—don’t let it fester. Address it head-on, but with finesse. Skip the passive-aggressive hints and go straight to the point. Just be mindful of your tone: Mercury in dreamy Pisces calls for a softer delivery, even if you’re speaking hard truths. If there’s been trouble in paradise—or just constant bickering with a key connection—the clouds begin to part this Sunday. The past two and a half months have been something less than easy-breezy in your close relationships, but if you need to point the finger, you can blame belligerent Mars, which has been retrograde since December 6 in your partnership houses. As the rambunctious red planet makes a long-awaited about-face, this should restore the peace and good vibes. If there are apologies to be made (or requested), waste no time. With Mars back on track, these next several weeks hold the promise of deeper bonding and steamier passion!
