Horoscope for Thursday, February 05, 2026

Moon Alert

After 4 a.m., there are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions. The moon is in Libra.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Interactions with others are tricky today. You might attract someone powerful to you, and this interaction might be intense, maybe even exhausting. Meanwhile, a younger friend or a group member might throw you a curveball. Stay off your heels.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Tread carefully when talking to bosses, parents and VIPs today because something could blow up in your face in a New York minute. (It could be minor — it could be major.) Meanwhile, a discussion about how to improve your job or health will be serious and worth consideration.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Steer clear of discussions about politics and religion because they could quickly escalate into an argument today. In fact, something unexpected might occur — possibly far away. Meanwhile, be patient during intense discussions with one of your kids or a romantic partner. Listen calmly.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Double-check details about banking, investments, shared property, inheritances, taxes and debt because something unexpected could impact these areas. Stay on top of things because if you snooze, you might lose. Meanwhile, an intense discussion with a family member might take place.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Today will require diplomacy when dealing with partners, spouses and close friends because they might say something that catches you off guard, or you might feel mentally distracted. Don't make rash decisions. Today you want answers. You want to get to the bottom of something.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Today work-related issues, something to do with your health, or a pet might trigger knee-jerk reactions. Avoid this if you can. Slow down. Your mind is restless, which is why you might jump to conclusions or make a decision without all the facts. Take a breath. Calm down.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Parents should know that this is an accident-prone day for their kids, which means they must be vigilant. Know where they are at all times. Meanwhile, social events might be canceled or delayed, or you might get an unexpected invitation. Avoid financial arguments.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Do your best to keep peace at home today because unexpected events will take place. Your home routine might be interrupted because of appliance breakdowns, minor breakages, or unexpected company at the door. You might get new technology for your home. It could be anything. Be cool.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This is a fast-paced day and your energy is a bit nervous. Be careful because an accident could happen due to a distraction. Discussions with others are powerful and perhaps surprising. Keep your wits about you today — for your own sake.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You have the attention of others today, especially if you want to assert your ideas about financial matters, earnings, cash flow or something that you own. People will listen to you. Something unexpected might occur that affects your assets. Be observant.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Avoid arguments with others that might erupt today because your mind is a bit excited. Arguments don't have to happen. Nevertheless, you have strong opinions when it comes to foreign countries, ideologies, politics, and religion. But you always have strong ideas about global issues because you want to save the world before bedtime.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

This is a restless day for you. You might find yourself at odds with a daily contact, sibling, relative or neighbor. Strong feelings about shared costs, shared responsibilities or how to divide something in a fair manner might also be a major concern for you today. (These are touchy subjects!)

If today is your birthday

Actor and humanitarian Michael Sheen (1969) shares your birthday today. You are charming, calm and competent. You're also sensitive, self-disciplined and organized. This year you reap the benefits of your hard work. Expect power and leadership. It's a busy year for you! Seize opportunities and act on them. You will be acknowledged — perhaps in the spotlight.
