Horoscope for Thursday, February 19, 2026

Moon Alert

Avoid shopping (except food and gas) and important decisions from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. After that, the moon moves from Pisces into Aries.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

An average day

As the day wears on, it gets better and you become more powerful. Don't be discouraged initially if you feel shot down, criticized or diminished. By the end of the day, you are mighty! Look for ways to make improvements in your immediate surroundings and even your appearance.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

An average day

Two separate influences are at play today. In one way, this is a popular time for you, and you'll enjoy hanging out with younger, creative people. However, a different influence can make you want to hide and be low-key. It's your call.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

An average day

An older friend might create confusion for you today. Perhaps you don't know how to take what they're saying? Fortunately, later in the day, you will be clear about what you want and what you do not want; furthermore, you will make things happen.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

An average day

Tread carefully today because your conversations with bosses, parents and authority figures are subject to confusion. But later in the day, you will speak up. It's also important to know that you're high-profile today, which means people notice you.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

A positive day

Steer clear of controversial subjects and issues related to politics, religion and racial matters because these could become depressing, as well as confusing. Nevertheless, late in the day, you will feel compelled to speak up and encourage change for the better if you can.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

An average day

If you have the choice, postpone important financial decisions about inheritances, shared property, taxes and debt for another day because today there's an element of confusion — even resentment. When it comes to money, you want to have a clear, calm mind.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

An average day

Although this is a wonderful, productive time for you and you can get a lot done, today has a few drawbacks when talking to partners, spouses and close friends because misunderstandings might occur. You might feel criticized. By the end of the day, you will speak your piece.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

A positive day

Mostly, you want to socialize and play today. You might also want to address increased chaos and activity taking place at home so you can restore order. However, when it comes to your job, health, or even your pet, discussions might be confused — even restrictive. Patience is key.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

A positive day

Romance is challenging today, along with the arts and anything to do with your kids. You might feel increased restrictions or responsibilities. You might also feel an element of confusion and be unsure of what's happening. Therefore, tread carefully. Keep your eyes open.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

An average day

Family discussions with parents and older relatives might be discouraging today. They might also be misleading or confusing. This is why, by the end of the day, you will speak up to clarify things and try to improve the situation. It will all work out.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

A positive day

Don't fall into the paralysis of the negative by worrying about something today. Admittedly, someone older might be critical or discouraging. You will have your chance to reply, perhaps later today. With fiery Mars in your sign, you're not taking a back seat.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

A positive day

Financial matters might disappoint today. Double-check everything because you might not have the correct facts, or you could even be misled by someone. With Mercury and Venus in your sign, you will be diplomatic in how you explore this matter.

If today is your birthday

Actor Benicio Del Toro (1967) shares your birthday today. You are sensitive, individualistic and perceptive. You want to contribute to the greater good. This year it's time to create solid foundations in your life, both externally and internally. Simplicity is key. Take charge of your health. Physical exercise will be important. Stay grounded and levelheaded.
