Overview for this Month: Taurus (All)
February 2026 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Taurus:
This is one of the more goal-oriented times of the year for you, dear Taurus, with Mars at the top of your solar chart all month and a Solar Eclipse occurring there as well. February is about starting anew and making some waves. Your commitment is strong. You want to take charge of your future. As the month progresses, a social theme grows stronger, and your pursuit of happiness comes into greater focus.
This month, you seem to need more order and purpose in your life, and it’s an excellent time to achieve this. This theme will stick with you for some time, in fact, and it’s only just beginning to take flight, nudged along with the Solar Eclipse on the 17th. Success may be about career, reputation, or simply staying on top of things--whatever your particular definition at this point in your life, you are hungering for it!
Not only is there a strong emphasis on your professional sector, but also Uranus, the ruler of this area of your chart, turns direct on the 3rd. These things bring a rush of energy to your career, responsibilities, reputation, and life path goals. They usher in a stronger focus on long-term goals and performance. You are getting a solid sense of what you genuinely value on practical and professional levels. Your independence becomes a more potent motivating force. This shift might renew your motivation for work or signal a moment of forward movement in your life path or career goals. Use your extra sharpness and can-do attitude for good, putting a past problem to rest. Your ability to take things as they come is attractive, and your positive attitude gets attention.
However, the Full Moon on the 1st brings an epiphany about your domestic or personal life, drawing your attention closer to home. With so much attention to your responsibilities to the outside world these days, it’s time to give your personal affairs their due consideration. This is also a time to recognize your love for your domestic world, familiarity, and special people in your life. If home life is out of balance, you’re ready to do what it takes to make it more comfortable.
Some big news: Neptune moved into your solar twelfth house last month, and now, Saturn does the same, launching a critical cycle for spiritual renovation, clean-up, and better attention to mental health. It challenges you to address unfinished business, regroup, process, and heal. It’s important to rid yourself of regrets or perceived failures and disappointments as a Saturn-Sun cycle enters its last leg before coming full circle in April 2028, when Saturn will begin its transit of your sign.
As Saturn and Neptune join forces this month, routine work may be necessary, and although your heart may not be in it at first, you might also recognize that to be creative, self-discipline is essential. You might take charge of a private, past, or health matter now as you instinctively zero in on your priorities. Good energy is with you as you tackle long-standing problems. Working anonymously or from behind the scenes can prove beneficial. You’re giving more thought to the past, and now, you're making sense of recent musings. Focusing on handling outstanding or unresolved issues in your life can boost you.
Even with important work going on behind the scenes, February is a higher-profile month, and your responsibilities to the outside world are more prominent. Your career or a special project continues to pick up pace. Others are recognizing your talents and abilities, but the real drive for success is emanating from within, as you’re especially motivated this month. Thinking up long-term plans can be fun and useful now. People are interested in what you do!
Even with all of your attention to game plans, career, and responsibilities in February, your social life is also moving forward. With Mercury and Venus moving into your social sector on the 6th and 10th, exchanging ideas with friends can be rewarding. Cooperative activities are in favor. Sharing your plans with someone and brainstorming to make them better can be a positive theme. Learning something new is exciting, and an open heart opens doors. You could be furthering your mental interests, and the chance to expand your world or your view is at your fingertips.
The Solar Eclipse on the 17th stirs up matters related to your reputation, life direction, social status, or career. In the weeks and even months following this lunation, you may get significant attention. This can be a time for a new direction, a brand-new outlook on your goals, or a different approach to pursuing your overarching objectives and plans. There can be some rebelliousness or surprises tied in with the “turning over a new leaf” vibe of this eclipse season, and it's best to avoid blowing up your luck with impulsive moves.
Note that this eclipse is the first of a set of eclipses shaking up your vision of your life path, in effect starting now and running through January 2028. With it, you're becoming especially aware of your career or overarching life-plan goals. Getting the balance right between worldly and personal goals will be a big theme over the next two years, and this eclipse brings the first cosmic push to define who you are, what you do, and how you contribute. As you advance, it will be a good time for developing new business plans and goals. Reworking the elements of your personality that you project to society can be involved if they need updating.
The day after this eclipse, however, the Sun heads into your social sector, and friends and happiness goals are a strong theme. You can gain some forward momentum and motivation from long-term projects that invigorate and excite you. Personal opportunities can emerge through friends, networks, or groups.
It’s also a fruitful time for meeting people, but Mercury’s retrograde from the 26th forward can mean that new relationships might slow down very quickly. Something may be left up in the air. The retrograde can point to some distance in current friendships as well, but it’s temporary. When it comes to friends, you may be taking a trip down memory lane now. Nevertheless, it’s a time to strengthen your relationship with your community and the quality of your life. You’re paying more attention to your dreams and wishes, happiness goals, and social aspirations, and it’s a beneficial focus.

Taurus (Born April 21 to 30) and Taurus Ascendant from 0 to 10 degrees Taurus:
February 2026 Taurus Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
February 2026
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until February 18th:
The Sun continues to put a spotlight on your solar tenth house. Satisfaction and fulfillment during this cycle come from doing your professional best, shining as a responsible and capable person, and contributing to the world in practical ways. You might have a chance to receive acknowledgement or praise for your work or good character now. Landing support from authority figures is easier at this time. Avoid the pitfalls of pride or arrogance standing in your way of success.
From February 18th forward:
The Sun lights your solar eleventh house. The Sun illuminates your sector of friends, groups, and dreams coming true this month. It's a sociable sector of your chart, and that's exactly how you are feeling--happy, light-hearted, cosmopolitan, and social. Group affiliations capture your attention. Connections can be made now and networking pays off, or at least satisfies. Being part of a community or circle of friends and building your social network is important to you at this time.
This is a rather happy, goal-oriented cycle. A lively agenda is promised, you're attracting quite a bit of interest, and your energy for making contact with others is high. A stronger sense of community is with you during this cycle. Relationships take on a fun, if impersonal, tone now. Activities with children (especially others' children) may increase. You are more stimulated by all that is unconventional during this cycle, and your ideas are original and progressive now. This is a time to follow your dreams and ideals, and to plant a seed in the form of a wish for the future.
Eclipses
A Solar Eclipse occurs on February 17th:
Because new information that could change our perspective can reveal itself after an eclipse, it's better to avoid major decision-making the week before and after this event. It's a time to observe and wait and see.
The Solar Eclipse marks a new beginning for you. Letting go of the past is necessary in order to move forward. This eclipse occurs in your solar tenth house, suggesting that a new approach to your career or a new career direction altogether is in store for you. New business plans and goals may be formed in the coming month, and a sense of renewal and reinvigoration with regards to your career goals is a strong potential. This is a phase of being especially busy with career and/or public responsibilities. The outside world is calling!
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until the 10th:
Venus continues to transit your solar tenth house. Relationships with authority figures, superiors, and with the public are in focus during this cycle. It's a strong period for diplomatic relations, although a negative expression of this position could be bending over backwards to please rather than positive, friendly relations. It's a time when being a team player reaps the most rewards, and you may be mixing business with pleasure now. This may be a time when you are especially enjoying your career or position and making the most of it.
From the 10th forward:
Venus graces your solar eleventh house now. Forming harmonious, warm social friendships, possibly related to group activities within a club, can figure now. You may meet someone through such group activities; consequently, your interests will be shared. Whether or not you do, the bottom line is that sharing interests with someone is what makes you happy during this cycle. Venus here enlivens your friendships and group associations with charm and grace. You are more peace-loving than usual and slightly detached on a personal level. If a romance were to begin during this time frame, it would be characterized by a strong feeling of camaraderie, but it could also be rather impersonal and perhaps lacking in depth and intimacy.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until the 6th:
Mercury continues to transit your solar tenth house. Career matters are busy at this time, and there can be plenty of thoughts and/or conversations about your profession, your reputation, or your social standing during this cycle. It's a good time to analyze your work tasks and to streamline them or improve your skills. There may be increased contact with the public now, or you might experience an increased need to be heard and acknowledged for your intelligence, skills, capabilities, and ideas.
From the 6th forward:
Mercury is transiting your solar eleventh house. Your mind is bright, alert, and active during this cycle, and you have the ability to come up with unusual and inventive ideas. Sharing your thoughts with others is a prime interest. Others tend to particularly enjoy your conversations during this transit--you are willing to listen as well as add your own thoughts.
As well, your ability to grasp unusual subject matter and to intuitively understand what others are trying to say win you some brownie points! You could also do a lot of thinking and musing about your own happiness and long-term goals.
Mercury is retrograde from February 26th to March 20th:
All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of communications with lovers or children, and regarding financial affairs, because Mercury rules these areas of your life. Your judgment with regards to personal finances (Gemini-ruled for you) as well as romantic partners and creative endeavors may not be up to par just now, so do avoid "signing on the dotted line". Speculation is not advised during this cycle.
Occurring in your solar eleventh house this time, extra care should be used when communicating with friends. You may find that communications with friends or with groups can easily become sticky during this cycle. Group meetings may be postponed or cancelled, and friends may be uncommunicative or giving off mixed signals. On the other hand, old acquaintances may appear during this cycle, or you could be thinking about contacting an old friend. This may be a good time to do so. It would be wise to be especially clear when it comes to communicating with friends and associates during this cycle; or, better yet, take this time to rethink concerns and grievances before talking about them prematurely.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
All month:
Mars continues to energize your solar tenth house now. You bring much energy, enthusiasm, and drive to your career or to directing activities in your life during this cycle. You may be quite competitive during this period, preferring to achieve and accomplish things on your own. This attitude can, in some cases, be seen by others as an instigating or otherwise offensive energy, so be aware of that possibility.
This is a strong time for directly pursuing your goals, and, if you need that extra push or oomph to get a plan going, particularly a professional one, or to assert your desires, then this is the time. You are self-motivated, and your enthusiasm can be harnessed if you so choose.

February 2026
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
All month:
The Sun illuminates your career and reputation sector. More than any other time of the year, your focus is drawn to your "place" or standing in the outer world, and your reputation. This is the time when you are more interested in, and focused on, accomplishing something important. Your competency is something that you are especially sensitive to during this cycle.
You want to shine! Your vision is practical right now, and you want to see tangible results for your efforts. More contact with authority figures is likely during this period. Recognition is likely to come your way whether you ask for it or not, and the responsibility that comes right along with it! Do what you feel is right, keeping in mind that you are at your most visible during this period in the year.

Taurus (Born May 11 to 21) AND Taurus Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Taurus:
February 2026 Taurus Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
February 2026
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until February 8th:
The Sun continues to shine its light on your solar ninth house now. This is a cycle in which you seek to expand your experiences and awareness, whether through philosophical thinking, higher education, travel, or simply activities that take you away from your everyday routines. You may feel a little restless if you don't find ways to explore.
It's an excellent period for looking at your life from a different perspective--a broader one--whether you initiate this process or you make contact with others who stimulate you to think about your circumstances differently. Your energy is strong, open, and friendly right now, you come across well to others, and you are a little bolder and adventurous than usual.
From February 8th forward:
The Sun illuminates your career and reputation sector. More than any other time of the year, your focus is drawn to your "place" or standing in the outer world, and your reputation. This is the time when you are more interested in, and focused on, accomplishing something important. Your competency is something that you are especially sensitive to during this cycle.
You want to shine! Your vision is practical right now, and you want to see tangible results for your efforts. More contact with authority figures is likely during this period. Recognition is likely to come your way whether you ask for it or not, and the responsibility that comes right along with it! Do what you feel is right, keeping in mind that you are at your most visible during this period in the year.
Eclipses
A Solar Eclipse occurs on February 17th:
Because new information that could change our perspective can reveal itself after an eclipse, it's better to avoid major decision-making the week before and after this event. It's a time to observe and wait and see.
The Solar Eclipse marks a new beginning for you. Letting go of the past is necessary in order to move forward. This eclipse occurs in your solar tenth house, suggesting that a new approach to your career or a new career direction altogether is in store for you. New business plans and goals may be formed in the coming month, and a sense of renewal and reinvigoration with regards to your career goals is a strong potential. This is a phase of being especially busy with career and/or public responsibilities. The outside world is calling!
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until the 2nd:
Venus continues to grace your solar ninth house. During this cycle, your ideals in love are set high. You might become inspired by a loved one now, or someone might awaken a new perspective or way of thinking in you. You could also enjoy a trip, or a new adventure of sorts. In fact, you are attracted to anything that is non-routine and fare best when you are reaching out beyond your usual bounds. You might be attracted to people or even objects that are exotic or different in some way during this cycle. It's a good period for personal charm and attractiveness in general.
From February 2nd to the 25th:
Venus graces your solar tenth house now. During this cycle, you are most charming and well-received on the job. Your responsibility and authority are likeable qualities now, making this a favorable period overall for schmoozing with those in a higher position than you, as well as for negotiations or social activities related to business. Venus is charming, friendly, and affectionate, and her presence in your career and reputation sector brings social opportunities to your career. You are coming across well at work now, and romantic opportunities, or simply more chances to socialize and network, are likely. You are socially ambitious right now, and success may come through your good managerial qualities or some form of artistic talent, or, indirectly through your marriage partner. People who turn your head during this cycle are those who come across as especially competent.
From February 26th onward:
Venus graces your solar eleventh house now. Forming harmonious, warm social friendships, possibly related to group activities within a club, can figure now. You may meet someone through such group activities; consequently, your interests will be shared. Whether or not you do, the bottom line is that sharing interests with someone is what makes you happy during this cycle. Venus here enlivens your friendships and group associations with charm and grace. You are more peace-loving than usual and slightly detached on a personal level. If a romance were to begin during this time frame, it would be characterized by a strong feeling of camaraderie, but it could also be rather impersonal and perhaps lacking in depth and intimacy.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
From the 1st to the 20th:
Mercury transits your solar tenth house. You are likely thinking a lot about your career and business matters, or your career requires more communication than usual during this cycle. You speak with authority during this period, and you are more accountable than usual for what (and how) you communicate. Your ideas may come into public view now.
Use the power of words to influence authority figures. This is an excellent period for developing career and professional plans or strategies. You may be turned to for advice or for your opinion on important matters. Although approachable and ready to communicate, you are less inclined to chat about frivolous matters now.
You tend to think about your position or standing on a professional level more frequently during this cycle. You are likely doing some multi-tasking regarding career and business matters. Negative use of this influence would be to worry unnecessarily about your reputation and responsibilities.
From the 20th forward:
Mercury is transiting your solar eleventh house. Your mind is bright, alert, and active during this cycle, and you have the ability to come up with unusual and inventive ideas. Sharing your thoughts with others is a prime interest. Others tend to particularly enjoy your conversations during this transit--you are willing to listen as well as add your own thoughts.
As well, your ability to grasp unusual subject matter and to intuitively understand what others are trying to say win you some brownie points! You could also do a lot of thinking and musing about your own happiness and long-term goals.
Mercury is retrograde from February 26th to March 20th:
All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of communications with lovers or children, and regarding financial affairs, because Mercury rules these areas of your life. Your judgment with regards to personal finances (Gemini-ruled for you) as well as romantic partners and creative endeavors may not be up to par just now, so do avoid "signing on the dotted line". Speculation is not advised during this cycle.
Occurring in your solar eleventh house this time, extra care should be used when communicating with friends. You may find that communications with friends or with groups can easily become sticky during this cycle. Group meetings may be postponed or cancelled, and friends may be uncommunicative or giving off mixed signals. On the other hand, old acquaintances may appear during this cycle, or you could be thinking about contacting an old friend. This may be a good time to do so. It would be wise to be especially clear when it comes to communicating with friends and associates during this cycle; or, better yet, take this time to rethink concerns and grievances before talking about them prematurely.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until February 17th:
Mars continues to animate and energize your solar ninth house. Your energy levels and sense of timing are good during this cycle. You are strong and bold in your beliefs and convictions as well, and others tend to naturally follow your lead. You actively seek out new learning experiences and have a strong desire to set out on new adventures, however big or small. Others find you easy to be around, even inspiring and energizing, and are attracted to your assertiveness and courage.
From February 18th onward:
Mars animates and energizes your solar tenth house. This transit stimulates your ambition and/or your desire to be recognized for your accomplishments. Whether it's professional or personal, you are likely to have an increased desire for others to notice you. This can be a good time to become self-employed or start a business if other factors (and Mars itself) are favorable. Conflicts with those in authority are possible now. You may pour more energy into self-promotion or business/career activities.
Overview Horoscope:
February 2026 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Taurus:
This is one of the more goal-oriented times of the year for you, dear Taurus, with Mars at the top of your solar chart all month and a Solar Eclipse occurring there as well. February is about starting anew and making some waves. Your commitment is strong. You want to take charge of your future. As the month progresses, a social theme grows stronger, and your pursuit of happiness comes into greater focus.
This month, you seem to need more order and purpose in your life, and it’s an excellent time to achieve this. This theme will stick with you for some time, in fact, and it’s only just beginning to take flight, nudged along with the Solar Eclipse on the 17th. Success may be about career, reputation, or simply staying on top of things--whatever your particular definition at this point in your life, you are hungering for it!
Not only is there a strong emphasis on your professional sector, but also Uranus, the ruler of this area of your chart, turns direct on the 3rd. These things bring a rush of energy to your career, responsibilities, reputation, and life path goals. They usher in a stronger focus on long-term goals and performance. You are getting a solid sense of what you genuinely value on practical and professional levels. Your independence becomes a more potent motivating force. This shift might renew your motivation for work or signal a moment of forward movement in your life path or career goals. Use your extra sharpness and can-do attitude for good, putting a past problem to rest. Your ability to take things as they come is attractive, and your positive attitude gets attention.
However, the Full Moon on the 1st brings an epiphany about your domestic or personal life, drawing your attention closer to home. With so much attention to your responsibilities to the outside world these days, it’s time to give your personal affairs their due consideration. This is also a time to recognize your love for your domestic world, familiarity, and special people in your life. If home life is out of balance, you’re ready to do what it takes to make it more comfortable.
Some big news: Neptune moved into your solar twelfth house last month, and now, Saturn does the same, launching a critical cycle for spiritual renovation, clean-up, and better attention to mental health. It challenges you to address unfinished business, regroup, process, and heal. It’s important to rid yourself of regrets or perceived failures and disappointments as a Saturn-Sun cycle enters its last leg before coming full circle in April 2028, when Saturn will begin its transit of your sign.
As Saturn and Neptune join forces this month, routine work may be necessary, and although your heart may not be in it at first, you might also recognize that to be creative, self-discipline is essential. You might take charge of a private, past, or health matter now as you instinctively zero in on your priorities. Good energy is with you as you tackle long-standing problems. Working anonymously or from behind the scenes can prove beneficial. You’re giving more thought to the past, and now, you're making sense of recent musings. Focusing on handling outstanding or unresolved issues in your life can boost you.
Even with important work going on behind the scenes, February is a higher-profile month, and your responsibilities to the outside world are more prominent. Your career or a special project continues to pick up pace. Others are recognizing your talents and abilities, but the real drive for success is emanating from within, as you’re especially motivated this month. Thinking up long-term plans can be fun and useful now. People are interested in what you do!
Even with all of your attention to game plans, career, and responsibilities in February, your social life is also moving forward. With Mercury and Venus moving into your social sector on the 6th and 10th, exchanging ideas with friends can be rewarding. Cooperative activities are in favor. Sharing your plans with someone and brainstorming to make them better can be a positive theme. Learning something new is exciting, and an open heart opens doors. You could be furthering your mental interests, and the chance to expand your world or your view is at your fingertips.
The Solar Eclipse on the 17th stirs up matters related to your reputation, life direction, social status, or career. In the weeks and even months following this lunation, you may get significant attention. This can be a time for a new direction, a brand-new outlook on your goals, or a different approach to pursuing your overarching objectives and plans. There can be some rebelliousness or surprises tied in with the “turning over a new leaf” vibe of this eclipse season, and it's best to avoid blowing up your luck with impulsive moves.
Note that this eclipse is the first of a set of eclipses shaking up your vision of your life path, in effect starting now and running through January 2028. With it, you're becoming especially aware of your career or overarching life-plan goals. Getting the balance right between worldly and personal goals will be a big theme over the next two years, and this eclipse brings the first cosmic push to define who you are, what you do, and how you contribute. As you advance, it will be a good time for developing new business plans and goals. Reworking the elements of your personality that you project to society can be involved if they need updating.
The day after this eclipse, however, the Sun heads into your social sector, and friends and happiness goals are a strong theme. You can gain some forward momentum and motivation from long-term projects that invigorate and excite you. Personal opportunities can emerge through friends, networks, or groups.
It’s also a fruitful time for meeting people, but Mercury’s retrograde from the 26th forward can mean that new relationships might slow down very quickly. Something may be left up in the air. The retrograde can point to some distance in current friendships as well, but it’s temporary. When it comes to friends, you may be taking a trip down memory lane now. Nevertheless, it’s a time to strengthen your relationship with your community and the quality of your life. You’re paying more attention to your dreams and wishes, happiness goals, and social aspirations, and it’s a beneficial focus.

About Our Monthly Horoscopes:
Our detailed monthly horoscopes are designed to reveal and interpret the current transits of the Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Mars in your solar chart.
Because these energies or transits do not unfold neatly into any given calendar month (many transits carry forward from one month to the next), you will find some of the energies continue from the previous month. For example, the Sun might transit the second house of your solar chart from June 21 to July 22, so that you will find a similar interpretation for this transit in both June and July’s horoscope. This is normal and expected. Transits don’t change because the calendar month changes.
These monthly horoscopes also include an overview paragraph, as well as other energies specific to the month, such as retrogrades, eclipses, or major outer planet transits.
The horoscopes are divided into three groups or decans, and the differences between the groups are subtle in parts and large in other parts! For those who prefer a whole sign approach to horoscopes, simply read the first decanate regardless of your birthdate.
Learn all about the signs of the zodiac. We offer interpretations of the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, and the Ascendant in the signs:
