Stars Align: Feb.16-21 horoscope, eclipse edition

This week, the first solar eclipse of the season comes Feb. 17, bringing transformative energy and setting a tone for change for all the signs. This annual eclipse, known as the “ring of fire,” is only visible in Antarctica

With the eclipse coming this week, all signs will experience a time of emotional clarity and might face increased change in friendships, social life and relationships. Buckle up, everyone, the “ring of fire” energy brings a chance to make real, long-lasting change. 

Aries (March 21-April 19): 

Aries, the ring of fire will set flames to your relationships. Sudden changes in friend groups might occur as you begin to find clarity in your close circles. Consider leaving people behind who don’t help you reach your full potential. This eclipse energy is a reminder to ground yourself in your true goals. It might be time to rid the old and welcome in new connections. 

Taurus (April 20-May 20):

For you, Taurus, this week is a time to focus on your career. Take the time to reconsider your long-term goals; journaling and vision boarding are your best friends this week. The eclipse brings a breakthrough opportunity for your professional life, and might usher in a new path toward success. 

Gemini (May 21-June 20):

Gemini, this week is a great time to learn something new. The eclipse energy brings power for you intellectually, as you will find ease in academics and work life. However, the eclipse also warns of massive changes in your long-term plans. A trip might fall through, or a canceled flight might sneak up on you. 

Cancer (June 21-July 22):

Cancer, this week brings a much-needed connection to the forefront. Expect deeper emotional or intimate relationship moments with friends or partners. Now is a good time to discuss trust with those in your close circle, as your own vulnerability will intensify this week. Take a breath, Cancer, and remember there is only power in speaking what is truly on your heart; lay it all out there. 

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22):

Leo, this week brings turning points for you in relationships. A long-term partnership might finally meet its demise, or you might feel extra tension in your relationships. Breakthroughs are possible, though, so try to take each ending as a good thing. Ride the wave, Leo. This week brings relationship resets and tension to your daily life, but it is nothing you can’t handle. 

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22):

For you, Virgo, this eclipse season brings changes to your health and wellness routines. Now is a good time to hunker down and check things off your to-do list, as productivity is high for you this week. Slow progress is vital to your goals; don’t worry if you are not moving as fast as you hoped. Take the time to slow down, refocus on your daily habits and remember your well-being comes first, always. 

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22):

For you, Libra, the eclipse sparks new beginnings in love and creativity. This week is a good time to pick up new creative projects you’ve been putting off. Take time to craft instead of scrolling and tap into your artistic energy. Expect extra romance this week, as love also takes center stage during the eclipse. 

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21):

Sweet Scorpio, eclipse energy is pointing you toward hibernation mode this week. Now is a good time to return to your coping mechanisms, curl up with a good book and focus on your emotional security. The eclipse brings you intense energy toward inner healing, so now is a good time to stay in and focus on yourself. 

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21):

Sagittarius, you need to use your voice this week. Speak up about what is important to you; communication and courage are emphasized with the eclipse. New learning opportunities might arise for you; take every chance to learn more, you never know where it will take you. 

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19):

The money is going to talk this week, Capricorn. The ring of fire brings financial growth into your life. Your priorities around money might change this week as you reconsider what to spend on and where to save. Be smart about your personal finances; what you do this week sets the tone for your bank account moving forward. 

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):

Aquarius, the eclipse is going to be the most intense energy for you this week, as it occurs in your own sign. Celebrity astrologer Kyle Thomas told PEOPLE magazine that this eclipse, “is the most important of the year for Aquarians.” This is a pivotal period for you. Focus on your friendships and community around you, your energy is magnetic this week. 

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20):

Pisces, last week brought intense energy, but this week the universe is begging you to slow down. The eclipse brings a quiet, reflective period for you. Rest, take a break and focus on finding closure in your daily life. Forgive an enemy, process something that’s been bothering you and take time to heal. Sending you a big virtual hug, Pisces.
