Your daily horoscope: February 19, 2026

IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

The more outrageous your plans may be the more inspired you will be to see them through to completion, but not everyone will be joining you in aiming so high. That’s okay, you don’t need outside support. You don’t need anything but your own self-belief.

ARIES (March 21 – April 20):

Everyone has both successes and failures but not everyone reacts to them the same way. As a fire sign you know that if you get knocked down the best thing is to get back up again and carry on the fight. You may have to do that today.

TAURUS (April 21 – May 21):

You may regret some of the things you have recently said and done but don’t make a big issue of it. Every day is a new beginning and what you get right today will more than make up for what you got wrong yesterday and before.

GEMINI (May 22 – June 21):

It’s not like you to be so ambitious but with the sun and Mercury moving through the career area of your chart you know this is the right time to push ahead with your long-term plans. Create the future, don’t just wait for it to happen.

CANCER (June 22 – July 23):

Cosmic activity in the most adventurous area of your chart will inspire you to aim higher and go further than ever before – though some parts of your journey may have to be undertaken alone as most people just can’t keep up with you!

LEO (July 24 – Aug. 23):

You don’t have to be totally objective about what’s going on but you do have to rise above the everyday chatter and strive to see the bigger picture. If you can manage that it will give you a huge advantage over most of your rivals.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):

You may be used to getting your own way but with both the sun and your ruling planet Mercury now moving through the partnership area of your chart meeting others halfway is a must. Compromise is very much the key to success.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):

Serious times call for serious solutions and at some point between now and the weekend you will have to make a decision that you know many of your friends and family members won’t like. That’s tough. Your interests matter more than theirs.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):

Whatever restrictions you may have been labuoring under during the early weeks of the year will be swept away by the events of the next few days. This is one of the best times ever to get things done, so don’t hold back for even a second.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):

The emotional side of your nature will be in evidence today and maybe that’s no bad thing. Sometimes you can be such a confident and go-ahead individual that people forget you have fears and feelings like everyone else. Don’t try to deny them.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):

Your mood will improve dramatically between now and the weekend and because you can see that the world is a wonderful place those around you are more likely to see it as well. Never underestimate the power of positive thinking to change things.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):

The momentum you have built up in recent weeks will keep you moving in the right direction but there will be occasions when you are easily distracted, so focus on your No. 1 goal and don’t stop until it is no longer a wish but a reality.

PISCES (Feb. 20 – Mar. 20):

Your head may be full of wonderful ideas but the planets warn you cannot possibly go after them all. List the top 10 things you most want to accomplish and then cross out the bottom seven. A trio of aims is all you need for now.
