February 22: Your daily horoscope

IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY:

You're a rock. You're an anchor. You're a point of security and safety that can be counted on in a world of constant change. That's why so many cling to you. Put yourself at their service this year – and the universe will reward you in many ways.

ARIES (March 21 - April 20):

You don't have to pretend you know all the answers. No one will think less of you for getting a few things wrong. As an Aries you like to believe you are always in control but that's simply not possible, not even for you.

TAURUS (April 21 - May 21):

Someone whose power exceeds your own may seem threatening but the planets indicate there is nothing they can do to hurt you even if they wanted to – which almost certainly they do not. Lighten up, you're doing okay.

GEMINI (May 22 - June 21):

If you want to get on in the world you need to accept that setbacks and failures are inevitable. Ignore your ego and do what you know has to be done to the best of your abilities. Yes, it will be enough.

CANCER (June 22 - July 23):

You may feel a bit deflated after the comings and goings of the past few days but there are still a few surprises in store and your enthusiasm will be back before you know it. The good times just keep getting better.

LEO (July 24 - Aug. 23):

You are a trusting soul by nature but the planets warn there are people in your social circle who would happily take advantage of your generosity to further their own interests. Now that you know that, what will you do?

VIRGO (Aug. 24 - Sept. 23):

Use your time wisely today and for the rest of the week. If you fall behind in your schedule at work or neglect the needs of loved ones at home you'll have to do a lot of catching up and making up later on.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23):

There are things going on behind the scenes that you cannot possibly know about, but you can sense that changes are coming. Don't let them worry you. No matter what happens you are tough enough to survive – and thrive.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22):

You cannot make up your mind which of two paths you should be following. Both have their attractions but only one can lead to the kind of inner peace you crave. That's the one you are destined to take. So take it.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 - Dec. 21):

There are a number of loose ends that need to be dealt with, and they need to be dealt with right away. It may mean postponing a social activity of some kind but time invested now will reward you with more time later on.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 - Jan. 20):

A positive frame of mind is a must today. If you let negative thoughts gain a foothold they will be extremely hard to get rid of again. Whatever it is that's vexing you, get over it. It isn't worth the worry. It never is.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 - Feb. 19):

Aquarius is one of the zodiac's "fixed" signs, which means you change your ways rarely, but even you can see that a different approach is needed on the romantic front. It's not a sign of weakness to show your feelings occasionally.

PISCES (Feb. 20 - Mar. 20):

You may hear something you are not supposed to hear today. If so, keep the information to yourself – don't be tempted to gossip about it. Knowledge is power, but the moment everyone knows it loses its power.
