Horoscope for Monday, February 16, 2026

Moon Alert

There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today. The moon is in Aquarius.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Today requires a bit of Aries finesse because an unexpected quarrel or a sudden dispute with a friend or a member of a group might arise. (Naturally, you will speak your mind as is your wont.) Fortunately, you also have the ability to smooth things over, especially with family members if needed. It's all good.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Tread carefully around authority figures today — parents, bosses, VIPs and the police — because some kind of outburst or argument might occur. Admittedly, you're pumped with energy and ambition. Someone younger, perhaps a friend or a member of a group, might restore the peace.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Pay attention to everything you say and do because this is an accident-prone day for you. Travel plans might suddenly change. Quarrels about politics, religion and racial issues might erupt. People are sensitive today. However, a discussion with a boss or a parent will be encouraging. (This will help.)

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Two different influences are at play today. One influence might encourage arguments and flare-ups about shared property, taxes, debt or inheritances. (Not good.) However, the other influence, by contrast, will promote agreement and the fun exploration of lofty ideas and travel plans. Tallyho! Take your pick.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Be patient with partners, spouses and close friends today because sudden comments or unexpected behavior might be upsetting. (You won't be happy.) However, on the upside, good news about money, investments and shared property will bring a smile to your face. Ka-ching! All is well.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Be patient with work colleagues today, as well as care workers and issues related to your pet, because arguments and sudden disruptions are likely. Fortunately, conversations with those who are close to you, like spouses, partners and dear friends, are upbeat and rewarding.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Please note: This is an accident-prone day for your kids, which serves as a warning for parents. It's also an accident-prone day for sports events. Social occasions might suddenly change. However, be confident that work-related conversations, especially those involving travel, will go well.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Family arguments or something else that might disrupt your home routine — perhaps appliance breakdowns or a minor breakage — might change your day. Be patient with family members to avoid arguments. Fortunately, social outings, sports events, the arts and fun activities with kids are blessed. Yay!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This is a restless day. Pay attention to everything you say and do today because this is an accident-prone day for your sign. Be aware and mindful. Sudden arguments might occur. You might also have a sudden separation. Home and family are supportive.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Keep an eye on your money and your assets today because something unexpected could impact them. Protect what you own against loss, theft or damage. Meanwhile, short trips and conversations with siblings, relatives and neighbors are upbeat and fun.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

All kinds of unexpected things might occur today — among them, you might be suddenly separated from someone or an argument might occur. It's an accident-prone day. Be careful! On the upside, financial negotiations will go well. Looking good!

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

You can be persuasive today, especially when talking to your kids or in any area related to the arts, sports and social outings. People will listen to you. Privately, however, something going on behind the scenes could promote accident-prone behavior. Be careful. Don't take anything for granted and keep your wits about you.

If today is your birthday

Actor Mahershala Ali (1974) shares your birthday today. Justice and fair play are important to you. You are insightful, analytical, compassionate and intuitive. This is a year of new beginnings and adventures. Keep your eyes open for new opportunities and be ready to act. What you do now will bring great benefits in the future. Prepare for leadership.
