Horoscope Today: Daily Guide to What the Stars Have in Store for YOU – February 8, 2024

Different cultures have their own ways of preparing for Lent. In countries such as Poland and Germany it is now 'Fat Thursday', where people eat donuts with jam.

It is carnival time in Brazil. Although British 'pancake day' may sound less exciting, it is a tradition that I will embrace with gusto.

As the Uranus-linked New Moon approaches, we can find joy even in the ordinary aspects of our lives.

RAM

March 21 – April 20

Being a bold, energetic Aries when you want to be, you can always find ways to make things happen. But this skill doesn't always work in your favor. Sometimes it seems like you spend half your time generating ideas and the other half dealing with the complex consequences. As the New Moon approaches, which aligns with innovative Uranus, you are under pressure to take action. Other people have high expectations and rely on you. Have faith. Whatever you do, at least for the time being the result will be good.

BULL

April 21 – May 21

Life would be simpler if all our choices and decisions were based on logic. But more often than not, we are motivated by strong emotions. We tend to believe what we believe out of loyalty, empathy, hope, or fear. That is completely natural and normal. Even the most rational people cannot always be objective. It's about finding a balance between what we feel and what we think. The dark of the moon always tends to stir up your emotions. But this time it gives you the insight to focus them in a pragmatic way.

TWIN

May 22 – June 22

Unconditional love. We are all looking for it, but it is hard to find. Some psychologists say that if we expect to find this in our relationships, it's because we don't have enough self-love. And that when we think we've found it in someone, it can keep us from seeing signs that things aren't as good as they seem. But because it is at the core of creation, it exists in all of us. And we connect with it by being generous with our love. Making a grand gesture in the dark of the moon can bring about positive change in a relationship.

CANCER

June 23 – July 23

As we head towards the New Moon, when your ruler connects with free-thinking Uranus, it's even more important than usual to communicate both your thoughts and your feelings. You have a deep bond with someone; and despite all the inevitable tensions that sometimes arise, it is valuable and deserves to be cherished. They just want to know that even if you disagree with something, you still have an emotional connection with them. And that means taking the time to explain your opinion. And listen.

The New Moon suggests that good times are coming. For more information, visit cainer.com/dm

LION

July 24 – August 23

People who live along busy roads become so accustomed to the sound of traffic that they do not notice the noise. Likewise, people living in rural areas become accustomed to the 'earthy' smells of nearby farms. The Dark of the Moon draws your attention to a problem in your relationship world that you have overlooked. Now that you are aware of it, you cannot be unaware of it. If it makes you uncomfortable, that's okay. It is simply a natural part of a necessary awakening process that will lead to improvement. Take your time. You will see it.

VIRGIN

August 24 – September 23

There's work to be done, and guess who's responsible for it? You may look at the enormity of the task before you and think there is no point in putting in the effort. It's so complex that even if you manage to achieve a little bit of success, it's hard to imagine that you'll manage to sort it all out. But that's not your normal way of doing things. By nature you are a doer (not a defeatist). So roll up your sleeves and give it a try. If you summon your positivity, you will do better than you expect, faster than you expect. And that will be satisfying.

SCALE

September 24 – October 23

Even if you feel like you should have anticipated the change, there's no reason to be hard on yourself. When you look back, you will remember that when you initially made a commitment, you were aware of the fact that you would only get so far toward achieving it. Actually, you did a good job. And you are about to discover that your efforts have certainly not been in vain, but that they have brought you into a new situation, which offers significantly different (better) opportunities. As we move towards the New Moon, be open to inspiring news.

SCORPION

October 24 – November 22

When it comes to generosity, nature is much more generous than us. Society does not encourage us to go back to basics and restart our lives over and over again. But nature offers this possibility endlessly. From new seasons to new moons, we witness its ability to reform and regrow. But because we are part of this wonderful experience, we always have the potential to make a new start. The upcoming New Moon will bring one your way. You can create a change in your relationship world that opens you up to joyful renewal.

ARCHER

November 23 – December 21

“If love beckons you, follow him, even though his ways are difficult and steep.” Just because love isn't always easy doesn't mean we should cut love out of our lives. And these words encourage us; we know that it is worth it when we open our hearts, even if we make ourselves vulnerable. I mention this because a recent experience has reminded you of a difficult time in your emotional life. But that doesn't mean trouble lies ahead. The New Moon brings a situation that contrasts with your memory. Your job is to let go of the past.

IBEX

December 22 – January 20

Love cannot be bought or sold. In these crazy times, when we can (if we have the money) buy anything we want, it's worth reminding ourselves that the content of our hearts is above price or negotiation. With Venus firmly in your sign, you are aware that your popularity is growing. Also keep in mind that a certain person may want to feel like you belong to him or her. This may not be a romantic connection; your desirability works in all your relationships. But you are not a commodity. Only fair exchanges will benefit you.

AQUARIUS

January 21 – February 19

Sometimes something small happens and we turn it into something big. Sometimes we underestimate big problems and spend more time than necessary on trivialities. The problem is that it's not always easy to figure out what's important enough to deserve our focus and energy. All that matters now is that you do enough to make a difference. Don't do too little. Or too much. How do you know if you have the right balance? When you start to get the right results. It seems like this takes less effort than you think.

FISHING

February 20 – March 20

How helpful is it when someone tells you to 'be yourself'? Or 'don't worry about what other people think'? This kind of advice is easy to give, but difficult to implement. Being ourselves is risky. So we are not concerned with the judgments of others. It can make us unpopular. Therefore, for the most part, making friends and finding ways to influence people is a better policy. Under the dark of the moon, your social skills are an asset. Being as kind and supportive as you can will get you the best results.
