Your horoscope for the week ahead: Be direct about how you feel — and leave nothing unsaid | CBC Life

Must read

Double-checking your work and communications will be key at the start of this week, particularly as chatty Mercury squares unpredictable Uranus on Monday. Even the tiniest mistakes have the potential to stir up major chaos under this energy, so you’ll be wise to keep your eye on the finer details — and brace yourself for a few curveballs along the way. If you end up making a blunder, try to keep your cool; having the right attitude will help you get out of any pickle you may find yourself in. 

Then, tensions could flare when the ego-ruling sun in independent Aquarius squares rebellious Uranus in stubborn Taurus on Tuesday. Feelings of anger and frustration are known to bubble up quickly under this aspect, and you may have to work a bit harder than usual to control your temper. While it may be tempting to ride this emotional wave, do your best to take a step back and consider the obstacles in front of you. This is a perfect opportunity to exercise your critical thinking skills and look for productive paths forward.

On Wednesday, the intuition-guiding moon will wax full in confident Leo, which could stoke our passion in all kinds of exhilarating ways. This lunation may even compel you to express your emotions with more authenticity and love. Don’t hesitate to be direct and leave nothing unsaid.

You may find you’re in the mood to open up even further when communicative Mercury moves into deep-feeling Pisces on Friday. The messenger planet will be happy to act as Cupid this Valentine’s Day, encouraging us to say what’s on our minds to the people we care about most. If you’re single, you could also find that this influence inspires you to live in the moment and take more chances in the name of love. Meanwhile, those in relationships can use this transit to retrace the steps of their shared past and celebrate just how far they’ve come together.

Here is your horoscope for the week of Monday, February 10, 2025.

Aries

Miscommunications with friends could derail your plans this week if you’re not careful, Aries. So you’ll be wise to avoid starting squabbles or letting existing conflicts distract you from what you’ve set out to accomplish. Giving yourself extra time to get things done could also help to ease tensions; perhaps you’ll even feel motivated to search for a solution together. Then, later in the week, you could find you’re ready to adopt a more carefree attitude and redirect your focus toward your domestic world. Have fun getting creative and experimenting with new recipes, interior design ideas or hobbies that bring you joy. 

Taurus

Remember your worth, Taurus. If you’ve been facing roadblocks while pursuing a raise or promotion at work, you may find it useful to ask yourself if you’ve been giving too much of your power away as of late. While it may be tempting to throw a tantrum at every setback you face, you’ll be better served to do a little detective work to find out what must be fixed in order to get what you want. Come mid-week, family life and domestic concerns could shift to the forefront of your mind, urging you to wrap up anything lingering on your to-do list. Then, as Valentine’s Day arrives, enjoy letting your friendships fill your world with love.  

Gemini

Are you forgetting something, Gemini? If it begins to feel that way at the start of this week, double-checking your commitments could help to ensure that you don’t leave anyone in the lurch. Make a list of everything you need to accomplish, and if you mess up, try not to get down on yourself; switching gears into problem-solving mode will be the most powerful thing you can do in this moment. Then, a big conversation that you’ve been waiting to have with someone could materialize mid-week. Don’t miss this chance to unburden yourself — now is the time to lay everything on the table to get on the same page. 

Cancer

Try to focus, Cancer. While it may be tempting to let your imagination run wild at the beginning of this week, doing so could leave you feeling weighed down by things beyond your control. Do your best to keep your mind clear and unburdened so you can double-check your work and communications with friends. Come mid-week, your attention could shift to your relationship with money and abundance. Consider the gifts you’ve been blessed with and how you might be able to share that bounty with others moving forward. Then, this Valentine’s Day, get ready to break out of your comfort zone and open yourself up to stimulating new experiences. 

Leo

Forgiveness can be liberating, Leo. Keep that in mind if you feel tempted to dwell on someone else’s lapses in judgment at the beginning of the week. Do your best to stay positive and remind yourself that you’re only in control of your own actions and emotions. Alternatively, if you find you’re the one who’s made a mistake, know that taking ownership of your blunder could go a long way toward demonstrating your character and strengthening your relationships. Then, mid-week, you might find yourself in the spotlight at work — what will you do with this beautiful opportunity? If a project of yours is ending soon, it could be the right time to start strategizing your next move.

Virgo

You may pride yourself on being the perfectionist of the zodiac, but nobody’s perfect, Virgo. Try to remember that, and cut yourself some slack, if you make a mistake or two at the beginning of this week. Maintaining a gracious attitude will allow you to navigate the chaos with more ease and emerge unscathed. Then, your subconscious mind could light up mid-week, helping to bring buried memories or powerful insights to the forefront. Keeping a dream journal could be a great way to unpack any emotions that crop up during this time; you may even find that writing down your feelings shifts your perception of the world around you.  

Libra

Keeping track of your responsibilities will be key at the top of this week, Libra. Otherwise, a shiny distraction could end up knocking you off course or preventing you from reaching an important deadline. So while it may not be particularly fun, you’ll be wise to channel your focus and energy toward tackling your most pressing commitments during this period. Meanwhile, promising developments could be on the horizon when it comes to your career. Don’t be afraid to tap into your existing connections; friends within your networks just might bring you exciting new opportunities to consider. 

Scorpio

Can you admit when you’re wrong, Scorpio? You may be forced to confront that question head-on if a lapse in communication around your domestic responsibilities brings confusion at the top of this week. Remember: what may seem like common sense to you could be unclear to your loved ones and may even cause them unnecessary stress. Listening to their concerns and leading with kindness will help you find a way forward. Then, come mid-week, you could find yourself thrust into the spotlight at work. While it may feel a bit uncomfortable at first, seize this moment to take up space, celebrate your accomplishments and start strategizing your next move.

Sagittarius

Are there certain relationships you’ve been neglecting lately, Sagittarius? Perhaps you’ve been going through the motions of life with blinders on and have forgotten to share what’s really going on with the people you love. It’s important to remember that no matter how well someone knows you, they cannot read your mind. Make an effort to communicate clearly and seek input from your nearest and dearest at the beginning of the week. Then, your need for intellectual, spiritual and philosophical stimulation could peak mid-week, urging you to leave the mundane behind. Enjoy opening yourself up to exciting new possibilities. 

Capricorn

Keep an eye on your cash, Capricorn. Financial hiccups could crop up when you least expect them this week, but staying on top of your spending and accounts will help you catch any issues before they spin out of control. And if you do encounter a money mishap or two, do your best to keep a cool head and channel your energy toward problem-solving. Then, mid-week, you may feel inspired to clear out some emotional baggage by reflecting on any negative habits that you’ve recently shed. Avoid dwelling on the past and instead focus on celebrating how you’ve harnessed the power of transformation. 

Aquarius

Avoid lashing out, Aquarius. At the start of this week, you could get thrust into a mishap at home that ends up being a massive time-suck, but remember that raising your voice and playing the blame game will ultimately get you nowhere. Take a moment to compose yourself and try to look at any challenges as a chance to flex your problem-solving skills. This act of self-control will help show people what you’re made of and allow you to foster even stronger connections. Then, mid-week, your relationships could begin to steal even more of your focus. Attached Aquarians can harness this chance to declare their feelings and perhaps even take things to the next level.

Pisces

Don’t let forgetfulness be your downfall, Pisces. At the beginning of this week, you may feel a bit spacier than usual and find that tending to your domestic responsibilities requires your full attention. Do your best to manage your commitments and check in with all the key players in your life to ensure everything runs smoothly. The atmosphere may also be buzzing with potential conflict during this time, so you’ll be wise to brace yourself for some fighting words. When it comes to navigating disagreements, employing your naturally empathetic attitude will take you far — just don’t let anyone treat you like a doormat.
