Overview for this Month: Taurus (All)
February 2021 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Taurus:
There is strong planetary influence in your solar tenth house this month, dear Taurus. These influences emphasize tenth-house areas, such as your larger life plans, responsibilities, performance, career and career goals, public life, direction, status, reputation, and achievements. While these things aren't always running smoothly, you have the power to make brilliant changes and improvements.
As the month advances, get ready to network! You begin to crave more pressure-free environments. Until then, there's a significant focus on your ambitions and goals. You're taking charge.
February is strong for exploring new approaches in your career. The New Moon on the 11th brings fresh energy for career and reputation matters, although it's better to take new endeavors slowly with Mercury retrograde in the same sector until the 20th. In fact, this is a period for looking at what worked for you in the past and making useful edits and refinements.
Improvements are in the pipeline. Apparent backtracking can lead to significant refinements and the strengthening of areas that were once on shaky ground–perhaps you didn’t even know about the flaws, and now you’re taking care of them. You could be mulling over some major decisions about where you’re headed. Past projects or goals may deserve a second look. There are treasures to be found in the past, but you’ll likely need to approach them in new ways to get them off the ground the second time around.
It makes sense to take a little extra care when communicating with the public, superiors, associates, friends, and co-workers during this retrograde period (until the 20th). Strive to be as straightforward as possible to minimize misunderstandings. You might also be waiting for information before you can move ahead.
Venus at the top of your solar chart until the 25th certainly helps smooth things over. Others see you as helpful, charming, attractive, and kind on a professional or public level. It's a time for catching some breaks if needed.
While the attention to your life path and responsibilities to the outside world is important, Mars remains in your sign for all of February, stirring you to action. Courage strengthens. It’s a time for expressing yourself with confidence and vigor. You can be a little more assertive than usual, often in productive ways.
Having a plan always makes you feel good, and one is likely to form this month, or a recently-devised plan comes into stronger focus. Your powers to lead, influence, and support others are stronger than usual, and your stamina stands out.
However, Mars often clashes with planets in your career sector in February, generating some tension. Excess energy can quickly lead to aggravation if you can't find a good outlet for it. Impatience can trip you up. It's easier to bruise your ego than usual, and you can sometimes have a harder time overlooking small frustrations. Conflicts with those in authority can occur now, or you may feel overwhelmed with responsibilities and personal goals, finding little time in the day to get everything done. It makes sense to avoid overstating your case or speaking too soon or too quickly on a matter. Impatience with getting our needs met can lead to all sorts of minor tensions.
Approaching life direction and long-term goals in new ways can be fruitful now, perhaps leading to significant new ideas. You’re doing a lot of work on yourself and your relationship with your inner world. This reflects positively in your ability to manage your responsibilities and thrive or succeed in the outside world. For some, becoming your own boss can be in focus.
The New Moon on the 11th is spectacular in its concentration of planets in one sign, and it occurs when your ruler, Venus, aligns with lucky Jupiter. These influences encourage long-term vision and expand feelings and pleasures related to your career or reputation. While this can lead to some excess, if expectations are kept moderate, it's a fine time to connect and cooperate.
You can be more confident in your path or happier about where you're headed. Doors might open up on professional or public levels. Interruptions or delays to plans are possible, but you're making things work for you. You’re radiating just the right amount of confidence.
A Saturn-Uranus square is one of the longer-term trends that color the whole year, and it begins this month. Your personal needs for more freedom, spontaneity, and independence are clear, but you're also quite driven to forge a stable path. It can be challenging to integrate these two powerful drives. When you try to express your originality or individuality, you could feel a bit off-center and ungrounded due to a simultaneous and strong pull to get yourself secure through career or ambitions. Occasional clashes with authority are possible. This is a time to free yourself from certain old habits but also to establish new and healthy habits or routines.
The Sun heads into your solar eleventh house on the 18th, and Venus does the same on the 25th, presenting a slight shift of energy toward happiness goals, friendships, or networking. Love requires emotional space and acceptance, and some of you could find love through or with friends and groups. Mercury ends its retrograde on the 20th, and the information you've been waiting for can arrive.
You're in good shape for personal advancement, publishing, self-publishing, educational endeavors, and reaching out to a larger or foreign audience around the 23-24. It's a good time to further your education or get a certification, and for using the accreditation you already have to your advantage. Your powers to influence, lead, and persuade are strong.
A romantic revelation is possible around the Full Moon on the 27th. It can open your heart to buried feelings and your eyes to situations that need your attention. A social matter or project can reach a turning point now, or there can be an epiphany or breakthrough that motivates you to make changes. A love relationship or a project close to your heart can be in sharp focus, demanding your full attention.

Taurus (Born April 21 to 30) and Taurus Ascendant from 0 to 10 degrees Taurus:
February 2021 Taurus Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
February 2021
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until February 17th:
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.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
From February 1-24:
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 25th 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
Mercury is retrograde from January 30th to February 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 tenth house this time, extra care should be exercised when communicating with the public, superiors, and co-workers. You may find that communications with bosses and co-workers, and concerning professional matters in general, can be tricky during this cycle. Strive to be as clear as possible so that you are not misunderstood when dealing with the public. Put off making definite career decisions as much as possible for the time being. You may be re-thinking matters regarding your life path, which is a good idea, but it's best to think rather than act for now, as your judgment may be compromised. It would be wise to be especially clear when it comes to communicating with authority figures 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 activate your solar first house, supplying you with added energy to apply towards personal goals, and a more assertive and direct approach to the world in general.
This is an excellent period for physical training and exercise of any kind. The desire to be self-sufficient and independent is especially strong now. You are far less tolerant of being restricted by or dependent on others, and this is a good time to identify your personal strengths and take positive action to rectify situations that may have previously felt frustrating or repressive.
You might be especially attracted to personal challenges, and seeing just how far you can push. However, be careful not to push yourself (and others) too far.

February 2021 Taurus Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
February 2021
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.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort
Until the 9th:
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.

Taurus (Born May 11 to 21) AND Taurus Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Taurus:
February 2021 Taurus Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
February 2021
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.

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.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort
Until February 17th:
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 17th forward:

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.

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.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Mercury is retrograde from January 30th to February 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 tenth house this time, extra care should be exercised when communicating with the public, superiors, and co-workers. You may find that communications with bosses and co-workers, and concerning professional matters in general, can be tricky during this cycle. Strive to be as clear as possible so that you are not misunderstood when dealing with the public. Put off making definite career decisions as much as possible for the time being. You may be re-thinking matters regarding your life path, which is a good idea, but it's best to think rather than act for now, as your judgment may be compromised. It would be wise to be especially clear when it comes to communicating with authority figures during this cycle; or, better yet, take this time to rethink concerns and grievances before talking about them prematurely.
Mercury, while retrograde, returns to your ninth house on the 8th, and is direct in your ninth house on the 20th:
Mercury transits your solar ninth house. Not content to focus on mundane, practical affairs just now, your mind turns to bigger visions, thoughts, and ideals. You are open to expanding your knowledge base during this cycle, and communications from or with someone far away may be part of the picture.
You are putting everything into perspective now, rather than compartmentalizing. Instead of simply shooting the breeze, you are more inclined to discuss broader philosophies now. Your inclination during this cycle is to think about the "big picture" rather than the mundane circumstances and details of your life. Missing appointments and other forms of forgetfulness could be part of the picture now.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until the 14th:
Mars continues to energize your solar twelfth house now. While Mars occupies the twelfth house, asserting yourself in a direct and straightforward manner can be difficult. This is largely due to a feeling of not being in touch with what it is you want or desire just for the time being as you reassess your goals and needs.
This lack of direction and self-knowledge should prompt you to look within to learn about your desires. It is likely that you will be much clearer when Mars reaches your first house. For the time being, take some time for rest and give your ego a break.
From the 14th forward: You are able to stand your ground and assert yourself more than usual during this transit of Mars through your solar first house. You have energy at your disposal to move your plans forward, and you are more enterprising. You want to leave your mark on the world in some way--however big or small--and you are more able to make an impression than usual. If circumstances are such, you are able to easily fight back. In fact, you may be somewhat combative under this influence, and you may have a short temper. Avoid being pushy. Take charge of your life, but don't bulldoze over others in the process! This is an excellent transit for assertiveness and physical vitality. Love affairs may also be stepped up during this period. On the rare occasion when an accident occurs, it is more likely to involve the head or face.
Overview Horoscope:
February 2021 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Taurus:
There is strong planetary influence in your solar tenth house this month, dear Taurus. These influences emphasize tenth-house areas, such as your larger life plans, responsibilities, performance, career and career goals, public life, direction, status, reputation, and achievements. While these things aren't always running smoothly, you have the power to make brilliant changes and improvements.
As the month advances, get ready to network! You begin to crave more pressure-free environments. Until then, there's a significant focus on your ambitions and goals. You're taking charge.
February is strong for exploring new approaches in your career. The New Moon on the 11th brings fresh energy for career and reputation matters, although it's better to take new endeavors slowly with Mercury retrograde in the same sector until the 20th. In fact, this is a period for looking at what worked for you in the past and making useful edits and refinements.
Improvements are in the pipeline. Apparent backtracking can lead to significant refinements and the strengthening of areas that were once on shaky ground–perhaps you didn’t even know about the flaws, and now you’re taking care of them. You could be mulling over some major decisions about where you’re headed. Past projects or goals may deserve a second look. There are treasures to be found in the past, but you’ll likely need to approach them in new ways to get them off the ground the second time around.
It makes sense to take a little extra care when communicating with the public, superiors, associates, friends, and co-workers during this retrograde period (until the 20th). Strive to be as straightforward as possible to minimize misunderstandings. You might also be waiting for information before you can move ahead.
Venus at the top of your solar chart until the 25th certainly helps smooth things over. Others see you as helpful, charming, attractive, and kind on a professional or public level. It's a time for catching some breaks if needed.
While the attention to your life path and responsibilities to the outside world is important, Mars remains in your sign for all of February, stirring you to action. Courage strengthens. It’s a time for expressing yourself with confidence and vigor. You can be a little more assertive than usual, often in productive ways.
Having a plan always makes you feel good, and one is likely to form this month, or a recently-devised plan comes into stronger focus. Your powers to lead, influence, and support others are stronger than usual, and your stamina stands out.
However, Mars often clashes with planets in your career sector in February, generating some tension. Excess energy can quickly lead to aggravation if you can't find a good outlet for it. Impatience can trip you up. It's easier to bruise your ego than usual, and you can sometimes have a harder time overlooking small frustrations. Conflicts with those in authority can occur now, or you may feel overwhelmed with responsibilities and personal goals, finding little time in the day to get everything done. It makes sense to avoid overstating your case or speaking too soon or too quickly on a matter. Impatience with getting our needs met can lead to all sorts of minor tensions.
Approaching life direction and long-term goals in new ways can be fruitful now, perhaps leading to significant new ideas. You’re doing a lot of work on yourself and your relationship with your inner world. This reflects positively in your ability to manage your responsibilities and thrive or succeed in the outside world. For some, becoming your own boss can be in focus.
The New Moon on the 11th is spectacular in its concentration of planets in one sign, and it occurs when your ruler, Venus, aligns with lucky Jupiter. These influences encourage long-term vision and expand feelings and pleasures related to your career or reputation. While this can lead to some excess, if expectations are kept moderate, it's a fine time to connect and cooperate.
You can be more confident in your path or happier about where you're headed. Doors might open up on professional or public levels. Interruptions or delays to plans are possible, but you're making things work for you. You’re radiating just the right amount of confidence.
A Saturn-Uranus square is one of the longer-term trends that color the whole year, and it begins this month. Your personal needs for more freedom, spontaneity, and independence are clear, but you're also quite driven to forge a stable path. It can be challenging to integrate these two powerful drives. When you try to express your originality or individuality, you could feel a bit off-center and ungrounded due to a simultaneous and strong pull to get yourself secure through career or ambitions. Occasional clashes with authority are possible. This is a time to free yourself from certain old habits but also to establish new and healthy habits or routines.
The Sun heads into your solar eleventh house on the 18th, and Venus does the same on the 25th, presenting a slight shift of energy toward happiness goals, friendships, or networking. Love requires emotional space and acceptance, and some of you could find love through or with friends and groups. Mercury ends its retrograde on the 20th, and the information you've been waiting for can arrive.
You're in good shape for personal advancement, publishing, self-publishing, educational endeavors, and reaching out to a larger or foreign audience around the 23-24. It's a good time to further your education or get a certification, and for using the accreditation you already have to your advantage. Your powers to influence, lead, and persuade are strong.
A romantic revelation is possible around the Full Moon on the 27th. It can open your heart to buried feelings and your eyes to situations that need your attention. A social matter or project can reach a turning point now, or there can be an epiphany or breakthrough that motivates you to make changes. A love relationship or a project close to your heart can be in sharp focus, demanding your full attention.

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:
