The only thing more auspicious than the guiding North Node transiting through Taurus — a sign symbolic of security, sustenance, and the senses — is the fact that celestial counterparts, Mars and Venus, will travel side by side for the next month or so. The irony of this rare conjunction is pleasantly surprising when you think about it. In addition to being the planet of assertion and passion, Mars is Scorpio's traditional planetary ruler. Mars and Venus will inspire and harmonize — amid their transit through Capricorn and Aquarius — all while the North Node is in Venus-ruled Taurus, and the South Node is in Mars-ruled Scorpio. It's not every day you see the planet of passion conjunct the planet of love, let alone while the Nodes of Fate transit through their signs of rulership. Basically, don't sleep on this unique astro-weather.
If you're wondering how to best harness the cosmic energy at play, start by recognizing your worth. It's also a good time to reflect on your divine mission on the planet. The romantic chemistry of Mars conjunct Venus is no secret, but when transiting through a cardinal Earth sign like Capricorn, there's a more serious undertone to this aspect. Mars is, after all, a fiercely independent warrior, and this is precisely the energy we're being called to embody. Whether it's an entrepreneurial venture on your mind or the "traditional" romance you can't help but crave, something is aggressively propelling you toward the future. As you can probably feel, it's time to take action, but before you get ahead of yourself, let's take a closer look at your Feb. 20 weekly horoscope.
Before the moon concludes its journey through harmony-seeking Libra on Feb. 20, it'll square off with Mars-Venus in Capricorn, which could, strangely enough, serve as a muse of inspiration, especially when it comes to professional endeavors. Fortunately, the moon's trine to Saturn in Aquarius will simultaneously present you with an opportunity to solidify or build upon previously-established connections. It's also a wonderful day to get something off your chest. The moon will slip into mystifying Scorpio for the next two days, which is always a plus during fellow water sign Pisces season. However, this week's square between the moon and Mercury-Saturn in Aquarius could trigger some feelings of restriction, specifically when it comes to expressing yourself authentically. Make sure you're being honest with yourself first.

Fantasy-filled and swirling with romance, this aspect can be equally alluring as it is intoxicating, so be mindful of where (and how much of) your energy is going. If you're artistic, this is an excellent time to tap into your creative energy. Find an outlet for self-expression.

Perhaps it's officially time to change gears and walk down the path that's right for you.

Are you sure you're committed to something or someone that allows you to be your most authentic self? Fortunately, even though the moon's square to Saturn will require some discipline, it does bring focus to the bigger picture. You'll feel this push even more with the moon's shift into Scorpio and your responsible sixth house on Feb. 21, which brings forth an opportunity to transform your current situation.

You're soul searching before you make your next move, Cancer. Amid its transit through justice-seeking Libra and your emotional fourth house of home on Feb. 20, the moon will square off with Mars and Venus in Capricorn via your relationship-focused seventh house.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Weekly Horoscope For Feb. 20, 2022
Keep your eyes on the prize, Leo. If you feel distracted toward the beginning of the week, blame the moon's square to Mars and Venus on Feb. 20, shining a light on your curious third house of communication and your dutiful sixth house of daily rituals. In other words, don't be afraid to take a rain check with your besties or lover, because from the looks of it, you've still got some work to do. Granted, this may or may not sit well with someone, especially when considering the moon's shift into moody Scorpio and square to Mercury and Saturn in your relationship sector the following day. If anything, this will serve as a gentle reminder to cross your t's and dot your i's to avoid confrontation.
On Feb. 23, the last-quarter moon in Sagittarius touches down on your romantic fifth house of pleasure . . . but there's a catch.

On a brighter note, things will become more grounded when the moon shifts into structured Capricorn and your responsible sixth house of due diligence. The moon will then meet with freedom-loving Uranus in your 10th house of authority on Feb. 26, so don't be afraid to stand up for what you believe in.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Weekly Horoscope For Feb. 20, 2022
Don't be discouraged by the unknown, Virgo. Before the moon concludes its journey through Libra and your security-seeking second house on Feb. 20, it will face off with Mars via your fifth house of love. Do you feel comfortable expressing your passions creatively or romantically? You could feel torn between submitting to your heart's desires and adhering to your idea of balance. The moon's shift into Scorpio the following day brings a fresh perspective to themes of communication, but by that same token, there's likely something you're being called to transform when it comes to your thought processes. This may seem easier said than done, but letting go of your need to compartmentalize people, places, and things is a start.
Moreover, the last-quarter moon in Sagittarius on Feb. 23 activates your domestic fourth house of home, family, and deep feelings, triggering a need to let go. Be it a tradition in your family or perhaps even a style of living, the cosmos are highlighting what's no longer in alignment with your innermost soul path at this time.

This astro-weather feels undeniably sexy, and getting your flirt on is almost inevitable.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Weekly Horoscope For Feb. 20, 2022
You know a thing or two about keeping your composure, but at what cost, Libra? This is significant to consider at the beginning of the week, when the moon squares off with Mars in Capricorn and your fourth house of innermost feelings, concluding its journey through your sign. Assertive Mars rule your committed seventh house, so don't be afraid to confront a significant other if need be. On Feb. 21, upon the moon's move into Scorpio and your second house of comfort and values, it will clash with Mercury, creating friction between your innate longing for security and your desire to explore your options creatively or romantically. Given that the South Node is in Scorpio, it doesn't hurt to reflect on your fears surrounding stability and release what's holding you back.
On Feb. 22, after going head-to-head with structured Saturn, Luna will finally harmonize with your ruler Venus, along with Mars, Jupiter, and Neptune.

This energy may feel tense, but try to make yourself comfortable as the moon slips into your cozy fourth house of home on Feb. 24 until the end of the week. It'll sit alongside luscious Venus and go-getter Mars, so take some well-deserved time for yourself — self-love is the best love.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Weekly Horoscope For Feb. 20, 2022
With so much on your place, you're likely keeping to yourself at the start of the week, Scorpio. Before the moon wraps up in Libra and your 12th house of closure, dreams, and secrets, it will clash with your assertive traditional ruler Mars on Feb. 20. Do your best to keep your balance, especially with red-hot Mars energizing your busy third house of communication. Upon the moon's shift into your sign the following day, however, keeping your emotions at bay will be easier said than done.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Weekly Horoscope For Feb. 20, 2022
Every worthy experience will typically require you to step outside your comfort zone, Sagittarius. With the moon glimmering through your 11th house of community, chances are, you're being presented with exciting opportunities at this time. The catch, however, could stem from the moon's tense square to Mars on Feb. 20, creating friction between your desire for security and meeting your collaborators halfway. You can always sleep on any major decisions, as the moon will slip into Scorpio via your sleepy 12th house of rest, closure, and surrender on Feb. 21. Try to get your ducks in a row beforehand if you can, as the moon will eventually clash with chatty Mercury and taskmaster Saturn on Feb. 22.
The moon's dreamy trine to your planetary ruler Jupiter and Neptune come mid-week will serve as a reminder that your inner knowing is guiding you down the right path. Keep this in mind during the Feb. 23 last-quarter moon in your sign, which will encourage you to leave your old self behind as you embark on a new journey. That said, keep your feet on the ground: Mars and Venus will meet with hazy Neptune on Feb. 23 and 24, making you prone to illusions and romanticization. Instead of dwelling on the unknown, channel any fear into something creative. Your next steps should become clearer toward the end of the week when the moon shifts into pragmatic Capricorn and your security-focused second house of comfort, finances, and values.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Weekly Horoscope For Feb. 20, 2022
Do what you do best and take the lead, Capricorn. The week of Feb. 20 kicks off with the moon concluding its journey through harmony-seeking Libra and your 10th house of ambition, career, and legacy in the world, and you're being called to take the initiative this week. But, the moon will simultaneously clash with Mars in your sign, meaning you're more prone to overexerting your will at this time. Fortunately, the moon's shift into Scorpio the following day — via your 11th house of community — will remind you to lean on your peers for support. The moon will also square Mercury and Saturn via your second house of values on Feb. 21 and 22, calling you to think on your feet.

With both Mars and Venus sextiling Neptune on Feb. 23 and 24, your rich imagination and connection to the universe is undeniable. This is an excellent opportunity to dig in to the creative side of an entrepreneurial journey. As the week comes to a close with the moon glimmering through your sign, take some time to get in touch with your emotions.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Weekly Horoscope For Feb. 20, 2022
You're dead-set on planning for the future, despite the uncertainties that come along with it, Aquarius. Before the moon wraps up its transit through your expansive ninth house of adventure, it will clash with go-getter Mars via your 12th house of surrender. This could potentially add a layer of confusion or fear to next steps. Your challenge is to rise above these inhibitions. The moon's shift into Scorpio the following day will touch down on your bossy 10th house of authority and square Mercury and Saturn in your sign on Feb. 21 and 22. In other words, it's up to you to set the record straight and take charge of a situation.
The moon will be in harmony with Jupiter and boundless Neptune via your second house of stability, serving as a reminder to set firm boundaries and embrace your self-worth. Looking to the last-quarter moon in Sagittarius on Feb. 23, this lunation brings closure to your 11th house of community. You're likely in the process of releasing an unrealistic hope or a community of individuals you no longer mesh with. This energy is tough, but on Feb. 24, the moon will enter Capricorn via your inhibited 12th house of closure, dreams, and hidden agendas. Use this time to rest and recharge — you deserve it.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Weekly Horoscope For Feb. 20, 2022
You're all about honoring your commitments, but you also can't help your outside curiosities, Pisces. Amid the moon's journey through your intimate eighth house of soulmate connections on Feb. 20, it will face off with Mars via your 11th house of community. Cat got your tongue? It's not your fault you're so popular, but note that professional offers are also being presented to you at this time. On Feb. 21, the moon's shift into Scorpio and your expansive ninth house of adventure will bring transformation and revelatory insight regarding your personal values.
