Countdown to the New Moon

Tomorrow the moon goes dark in the sign of soul, an opportunity to reset. Today is for reflection. If you could wave a magic wand over any relationship in your life and set it back to a completely clean slate, where would you direct that magic? With a little hope and the intent to try again, change will happen. So, what is the change you desire?

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’re inspired! You’re inspirational! You’re both at once. A group will form around you. It doesn’t mean you have to be the leader — you’re lucky when you take as much or as little responsibility as you wish.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Something lovely will happen simply because you showed up. You don’t even have to show up strong for this to be true. Showing up in any capacity — scaling down, simplifying or even just doing the bare minimum — is still showing up.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Relationships that tend to destabilize you over and over signal something unhealthy. It’s not about one person being “bad” or even entirely conscious of their behavior — it’s just how the relationship is structured, and how it affects you.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). All it takes is one good decision to move everything forward. Investigate the choices of those you admire. You will have the chance to make similar moves in the near future.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). What happens when you don’t get what you need or want? Should you demand it? Apply charm? Propose a way to win it? Or do you really need it at all? Today brings the kind of decisions with the potential to define you.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You deserve emotional support and a comforting presence in your life. Being able to just lean on someone and feel held makes a difference. It’s OK to want that, and it’s OK to give that to yourself, too, even if it feels like a foreign concept.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’re growing, even if it feels slow or painful at times. Sometimes it’s the hardest stuff that shapes us the most. Express your feelings. It’s part of the process. The work will get easier, the magic deeper.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ve a yearning to be cast in a role or relationship that better reflects the person you know you are but perhaps have not yet become. You crave alignment between your inner self and the life you envision, a sense of belonging that resonates with your true potential.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Some of the things that will make you wise — such as experiences, education, travel and even making your own costly mistakes — may set you back financially. However, never hesitate to invest in yourself, as the value far outweighs the cost.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). How appealing it would be to have everything just fall into place; to feel seen and appreciated the way you deserve. It’s so easy to wish for that instant relief from stress, but even without a lucky break, you are cool, and your worth doesn’t change based on who notices it right away.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Sustainable habits usually have a bit of flexibility built into them that allows for a feeling of accomplishment because you showed up in some way, instead of judgment that you didn’t show up in only one particular way.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Good mysteries have a fun feeling attached to seeking the answers. Bad mysteries are like stinking garbage bins. If there’s anything worth knowing in there, it’s probably not also worth going through the gross experience of finding out.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Feb. 26). This is a year when your attitude and style will bring about happy outcomes. When you’re intense, you’ll see what others miss. When you’re laid back, it leaves room for people to help you, and you’ll get plenty of perfect help. More highlights: Someone wonderful will give you an abundance of what you need. Love grows increasingly honest and connected. You’ll take on a mentor role that highlights your tenderness. Scorpio and Sagittarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 10, 2, 22 and 13.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: Like so many Pisces artists, Johnny Cash found his calling early in life. Sun, Mercury and Mars were all in Pisces at Cash’s time of birth, and lucky Jupiter was in entertaining Leo. The acclaimed biopic “A Complete Unknown” features interactions between Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash, offering insight into the friendship between the musical icons.
