Horoscopes
Aries
Avoid expecting too much from others just now, dear Aries. You may be wondering if someone truly does care, based on the their level of involvement. Your best bet is to do your own thing. At the same time, you shouldn’t be totally excluding others, as this can be misinterpreted – people can be quite sensitive today. Keep things light. Instead of waiting for others to sense what you want or need, express yourself and take action, or wait for a more cooperative atmosphere to do so. There may be a question of whether a project is viable today, but this challenge may only serve to motivate you further to pursue your goals. There can be a stronger sense of mission coming on this evening, which is motivating.
Taurus
While there can still be some extra sensitivity in our interactions now, dear Taurus, today’s energy is a little more serious, but also stable. You tend to be more concerned about other people in your life and their needs than your own personal agenda. This is a good time for thinking about matters, especially practical and financial affairs, in terms of the longer view. There can be a serious energy related to intimate or financial matters today, and you can use this constructively, but some of you may be feeling a little unsupported right now. This theme is one that will be with you for some time, and you will be growing with it.
Gemini
The day begins on a rather self-protective level, dear Gemini. You are more focused on what needs to get done than social matters. The second half of the day, you are more emotionally geared towards relationships. However, there continues to be some serious or cool energy to the day that could keep you from feeling especially close to others. There could be some strain or reserve in your interactions as a result of a less natural approach to relating right now. If you’ve made a commitment to someone or something, do what you can today to honor it, even if you’re not feeling especially into it all. This will ultimately fuel your self-confidence.
Cancer
The day begins with a rather playful, light quality, dear Cancer, but as it progresses, you’re more emotionally tuned in to practical concerns. There is a rather introspective and withdrawn energy to the second half of the day. You may be inclined to keep things to yourself so that others don’t jump in and spoil your plans. Discretion is good, but avoid negative thinking and rigidity. You are not feeling especially trusting right now, and this may be a sign that you are not secure about your own decisions. Think more carefully before going forward with important projects. Turn your thoughts to long-term plans – this is a good time for applying strategy to your thinking.
Leo
This is a good day for recognizing and honoring your support systems, dear Leo, and as the day progresses, for getting to work on creative projects. The Moon aligns with Saturn later today, and Saturn transits force us to get serious, face reality, and realign our expectations. Since December, Saturn has been transiting your solar fifth house of children, romance, creative self-expression, and entertainment, and there can be a heavy, practical, and responsibility energy surrounding any of these things today. You can use it productively and constructively by focusing your energy and aiming to meet responsibilities, or you might be in deep thought now.
Virgo
There is a rather secretive, withdrawn, and self-protective energy to the day, dear Virgo. There is a part of you that is especially vulnerable right now, so it’s probably best that you avoid situations in which a confrontation is likely. Nevertheless, it’s not a negative thing by any means. In fact, through taking more responsibility for your inner world and emotions, you’re gaining more strength and balance. Try to avoid looking outside of yourself for happiness right now. Learning to live with yourself and truly enjoy it is a valuable skill.
Libra
Something said today can stir up all sorts of issues, as well as defensiveness, dear Libra. Before it spirals out of control, consider whether or not it’s better to simply move on. Arguments entered into today can reach stalemates, partly because you are very conflicted inside. Today, it’s better to focus on practical affairs rather than riding on the emotion of the moment. Constructive, and quite possibly instructive, conversations can be had now, and you may stumble upon truly helpful, practical information. It’s also a good time for pouring yourself into a project or personal interest.
Scorpio
The Moon continues to transit your sign until midday, dear Scorpio, putting your emotional needs up front and center, after which there is a noticeable calming down and re-centering process. The Moon aligns with Saturn in your solar second house, and this can pull up some concerns or worries about finances, and possibly about whether others are valuing you or seeing your true worth. Examine fears now, as they can be keys to any attitudes that may have been holding you back from going after you want. Activities that ground you and that remind you of the value in what you already have, including your personal possessions and resources as well as your natural talents. Aim for moderation now.
Sagittarius
The Moon is in your sign from midday forward, dear Sagittarius, so that there can be a sluggish or quiet morning and a more lively, connected quality to the remainder of the day. Emotions are pumped up and difficult to ignore. You may be dealing with emotional slights later today, however, and your need for attention is best satisfied in a mature fashion. Waiting for people to intuit your problems and needs simply won’t work in your favor right now. If you have a problem, it’s best to state it directly rather than to hope that others will figure it out. It’s a good time for taking care of your duties and obligations, as this will improve your self-confidence tremendously.
Capricorn
Saturn has been transiting your solar twelfth and final sector since December, dear Capricorn, and this places you in the frequent position of sorting through fact and fancy, dealing with projects that have outworn their use, and managing past grievances, guilt, and other uncomfortable matters – all of this, largely on your own! Today, the Moon aligns with Saturn, bringing emotions into the equation. You have some more work to do, and this involves identifying the weak areas of your life – those attitudes and circumstances that undermine your progress and don’t allow you to move on with confidence. It’s likely to be a relatively withdrawn, introspective day for you.
Aquarius
There can be a need to tend to duties and responsibilities today, dear Aquarius, that forces you to detach yourself from emotions in order to get things done, but emotions can be quite intense nevertheless. If you’re holding on to old hurts or inequalities, your mind might frequently “go there”, for example. While you are inclined to pull yourself out of difficult feelings, watch that they don’t drive your behavior behind the scenes with those closest to you. Productivity can be very strong today. In fact, you can be quite practical and focused when it comes to making long-term plans right now. Tending to these frees you up for more spontaneous activities later.
Pisces
Early today, you can feel more in tune with others, dear Pisces – more so than you have for a while. However, there can be a sense that people in your social circle are a little on edge, and that you are walking on eggshells. This afternoon is strong for healthy, helpful conversations. There can be a tendency to try to force something instead of listen to your instincts or gut feelings later today, however. A strong sense of your responsibilities comes on, and perhaps some concern about measuring up or performance. It’s a good time to be thinking in practical terms, and you can find it quite natural to put your emotions aside in order to take care of business.

The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EST) on February 12th:
Note that when an aspect is Applying, it has not yet happened but is within orb – it’s pending. When an aspect is Separating, it has already happened/perfected and is moving away from the aspect. Depending on the speed of the planet/body involved, the aspect will have perfected, or will perfect, in a matter of hours (often the case with the Moon), days, months, and possibly years in the case of the very slow-moving outer planets and bodies.
Note that the Moon moves at a rate of approximately one degree every 2 hours, so that if an aspect involving is applying and has an orb of 5 degrees, the aspect will perfect (be exact) in about 10 hours. If the Moon is separating from an aspect with an orb of 2 degrees, it has already formed said aspect approximately 4 hours ago (since the following are positions at noon today, then it would have occurred at about 8 AM today).
**I suggest paying close attention to applying aspects. The energy of the aspect builds as it gets closer to exact. Once an aspect has happened, it’s over. Separating aspects are good to know for context, but in terms of energy that is with us today, applying aspects are most important. (This is the case for daily astrology influences, which pass quickly, and not natal astrology aspects, which are with us for a life time).
