Are you ready to let your intuition take the lead? You'll be in a prime position to do so when the spirit-driving sun enters idealistic Pisces on Tuesday. As the sun moves through the mutable water sign over the next four weeks, it'll be a beautiful time to daydream, explore your imagination and get back in touch with your true voice. You may even find that turning inward allows you to tap into your creative spirit and discover fresh insights that'll help you experiment and transform. 

You'll want to think twice before adding anything new to your agenda when communicative Mercury squares expansive Jupiter on Thursday. Under this aspect, we tend to get overly optimistic about our abilities, which can sometimes lead us to make promises that we can't keep. Don't be afraid to take a beat before committing to anything and carve out extra time to get things done. 

Being intentional with your words will serve you well when intelligent Mercury in sensitive Pisces trines bold Mars in generous Cancer on Sunday. Our voices tend to resonate more with others under this influence, allowing us to forge connections and bring attention to causes that are close to our hearts. You could also find that this aspect increases your concentration and makes your mind more nimble; writing, studying or curling up with a good book are all excellent ways to put this energy to use. 

Later on Sunday, action-oriented Mars will station direct in protective Cancer, ending his retrograde cycle and causing our collective momentum to rise. But while the warrior planet may be eager to make moves over the next two months of this transit, it's important that we don't bite off more than we can chew. Instead, try to focus your enhanced drive on nurturing your domestic sphere and creating more stability at home. 

Here is your horoscope for the week of Monday, February 17, 2025.

Aries

There's nothing wrong with taking a moment to catch your breath, Aries. In fact, starting now and continuing throughout the next four weeks of Pisces season, you'll be called to carve out more breaks to collect your energy and recalibrate your emotions. Use this time to reflect on your recent accomplishments and consider what you might want to do differently in the year ahead. You may even find that this transit inspires you to dive deeper into your dream world; don't hesitate to let your imagination run wild as you wait for the sun to illuminate your astrological sign. 

Taurus

Go ahead and clear some space in your calendar, Taurus. Starting now, and throughout the course of this Pisces season, you could notice yourself becoming quite the social butterfly and feel eager to accept invitations of all kinds. This is a beautiful time to say yes to new experiences and push yourself to engage with people beyond your immediate circle. Who knows? You might even find that spending time with fresh faces motivates you to begin pursuing a big dream. Then, this weekend, you may feel inspired to link up with your nearest and dearest to collaborate on a new project. Start outlining what you'd like to create together. 

Gemini

Have you been yearning to make some changes at work, Gemini? You could get the chance you've been waiting for over the course of this Pisces season, but first, you'll need to get more comfortable with sharing your ideas and taking up space. All eyes will be on you throughout the next few weeks of transit, so take advantage of this opportunity to speak up and make a lasting impression on the ones who really count. It'll also be an ideal time to get to know your limits — and how much you're willing to push them. Consider what you can put into motion now to help cement your legacy moving forward.

Cancer

Itching to move beyond your comfort zone, Cancer? You may notice that feeling growing stronger from now through the next few weeks of Pisces season. As spring inches closer, you'll be invited to expand your world by seeking out stimulating experiences and connecting with people outside of your social bubble. Seize this moment to really stretch your boundaries; you might even find that following the pull of adventure inspires you to pursue a bold new set of personal goals. Also, you'll be wise to watch your words this week, especially if discussions around spiritual matters arise. Remember: you don't always have to have it all figured out.

Leo

Bad habits are meant to be broken, Leo. And this Pisces season, you'll have a unique opportunity to face your vices and fears head-on. Your responsibilities will likely become your primary focus over this period, motivating you to get extra serious about self-improvement. But before you make any big moves, you'll be wise to pause and really map out the steps you'll need to take in order to level things up. Also, you may want to avoid discussing money matters with friends this week, otherwise you could end up unintentionally painting a false picture of yourself or your assets. Keeping your lips zipped will serve you well.  

Virgo

Prepare to make some serious headway in your relationships, Virgo. Starting now and over the next four weeks of Pisces season, your romantic and business connections could begin to steal more of your attention, motivating you to find fresh ways to make them thrive. During this time, you might also notice yourself mirroring the people you love or looking to them to inform your decisions more often; enjoy watching your bonds deepen in subtle ways. Meanwhile, opportunities for your career or passion projects could crop up seemingly out of nowhere, but trust that you've earned them honestly. Take the wins and keep the momentum going. 

Libra

Get ready to be a shining example of efficiency, Libra. Starting now, and throughout the course of this Pisces season, you may find that you're able to see the world in black-and-white, making it easier to identify exactly what steps you'll need to take in order to reach your goals. So if you've been wanting to create more traction at work or in your passion projects, take advantage of these next few weeks to learn skills that'll give you an edge over your competition. When it comes to your interactions with others, you could have some trouble communicating your true thoughts, particularly mid-week. Don't be afraid to keep things to yourself for now. 

Scorpio

It's a wonderful time to throw caution to the wind, Scorpio. In fact, as Pisces season arrives this week, you may notice yourself becoming more playful and outgoing, particularly at work. Take advantage of this bubbly influence to chat up your colleagues, experiment with your creativity and show off your unique point of view. If you're single, you could also feel more flirtatious during this period and might even be tempted to strike up a romance with someone who admires your professional ambitions. In a relationship? Enjoy watching your confidence as a partner grow as you make strides in your career.

Sagittarius

Ready to lay down roots, Sagittarius? While you're typically known as the adventurer of the zodiac, from now through the next few weeks of Pisces season your domestic urges could become too strong to ignore, urging you to refocus your attention on your domestic world. On a practical level, this will be a wonderful moment to reorganize your space and make progress on any home improvement projects that you've been putting off. Just remember to carve out time to rest and recuperate while you revitalize your foundations; you may even find you're able to heal some old emotional wounds in the process.

Capricorn

You're known for operating like a well-oiled machine, Capricorn. But this Pisces season, your multi-tasking skills could reach new heights as you're asked to juggle a little bit of everything. It could seem as if everyone wants a piece of you over these next few weeks, with people from all corners of your life approaching you to take on extra responsibilities and social calls. While being needed in this way might feel flattering at first, it's essential that you also learn when to say no in order to avoid burning out. Don't be afraid to lean on your loved ones for support — or even let them take the lead for a while.

Aquarius

What does your ideal support system look like, Aquarius? You may find it useful to ask yourself this question as Pisces season kicks off this week. Over the course of this transit, you'll be called to take stock of your existing relationships and practice thankfulness for the many gifts that they bring. You'll also be in a prime position to assess what's missing from your closest bonds; consider how you'd like to strengthen your foundations moving forward. Then, as Mars stations direct, you may feel driven to jump into action. Avoid trying to juggle your goals and pick a singular focus. 

Pisces

It's time to celebrate your solar return, Pisces. As your astrological season kicks off this week, you'll be invited to take stock of all the ways that you've transformed over the last year and really step into your power. During this period, you may find that your naturally mysterious aura has a bit of a spellbinding effect, drawing people into your orbit and leaving them hanging on your every word. Have fun following your instincts throughout this transit and take every opportunity you get to connect with those who reflect your sweet spirit. Perhaps you'll even feel inspired to change your look or take a big style risk — whatever you do, do it with gusto.
