This week’s horoscopes (for 2–8 February 2026) take place under a waning Moon, the phase that follows a Full Moon when the Moon’s visible light gradually decreases.
Astronomical sources describe this as a period of release and reflection rather than fresh beginnings. At the same time, the Sun continues its journey through Aquarius, a sign associated with ideas, independence and community thinking.
Mercury remains in steady forward motion, supporting clearer communication and more reliable planning. In simple terms, this is a week for reviewing recent events, finishing tasks, correcting mistakes and letting go of what is no longer useful.
The overall tone encourages thoughtful decisions, emotional awareness and practical adjustments rather than bold new moves.
Horoscope readings for this week: Here’s what you must know
Note: These horoscopes are based on general sun-sign interpretations and provide broad guidance rather than personalised astrological analysis.
Aries (21 Mar – 19 Apr)
Aries may feel a slight drop in momentum compared to previous weeks. This is not a setback but a natural slowing that allows you to assess progress.
The waning Moon supports wrapping up unfinished tasks, especially in group or work settings. In simple terms, this is a good week to complete what you started rather than beginning something new. Calm communication helps avoid tension.
Taurus (20 Apr – 20 May)
Taurus benefits from reviewing responsibilities and long-term plans. The waning Moon highlights what has become too heavy or unnecessary. This may relate to work duties or personal expectations.
Practical steps such as reorganising schedules or simplifying commitments help restore balance. Financial caution is also advised; focus on stability instead of expansion.
Gemini (21 May – 20 Jun)
Gemini’s focus turns toward learning and communication. This is a useful week for editing, reviewing and refining ideas.
Rather than speaking quickly, careful listening brings better results. The waning Moon encourages letting go of outdated opinions or plans that no longer fit current reality.
Cancer (21 Jun – 22 Jul)
Cancer may feel emotionally reflective this week. The waning Moon naturally increases awareness of feelings, especially around shared responsibilities or close relationships.
This is a good time for honest but gentle conversations. Simple routines, rest and quiet time help maintain emotional balance.
Leo (23 Jul – 22 Aug)
Leo’s attention centres on relationships. The week encourages reviewing how effort and attention are shared between you and others.
If something feels unbalanced, this is a good time to address it calmly. Avoid dramatic reactions; clear, steady communication brings better results.
Virgo (23 Aug – 22 Sep)
Virgo benefits from focusing on daily routines and health habits.
The waning Moon is ideal for removing what no longer works. This might mean simplifying your schedule or adjusting habits that feel draining.
Small, consistent changes are more effective than large overhauls.
Libra (23 Sep – 22 Oct)
Libra may feel drawn to creativity and personal enjoyment, but the week asks for moderation. The waning Moon highlights where energy has been spent too freely. In simple terms, this is a time to balance pleasure with responsibility.
Quiet reflection brings clarity about what truly brings satisfaction.
Scorpio (23 Oct – 21 Nov)
Scorpio’s focus turns inward toward home and emotional security. The week supports clearing physical or emotional clutter. Organising living spaces or setting clearer emotional boundaries can bring a sense of calm. Avoid overthinking; simple actions restore stability.
Sagittarius (22 Nov – 21 Dec)
Sagittarius benefits from clearer communication and careful planning. The waning Moon supports reviewing travel plans, schedules or agreements. This is not the best week for impulsive decisions. Taking time to double-check details prevents complications later.
Capricorn (22 Dec – 19 Jan)
Capricorn’s attention centres on values and resources. The waning Moon encourages realistic evaluation of financial or work-related matters. This is a good week to cut unnecessary expenses or reorganise priorities. Practical thinking leads to steady improvement.
Aquarius (20 Jan – 18 Feb)
Aquarius remains in focus during its solar season but is encouraged to slow down slightly. The waning Moon supports personal reflection and adjustment. This is a time to review goals set earlier and make small corrections. Listening to feedback from others can be useful.
Pisces (19 Feb – 20 Mar)
Pisces experiences this week as a quiet, restorative period. The waning Moon encourages rest, emotional processing and preparation for the upcoming New Moon. In simple terms, this is a week to recharge rather than push forward. Simple routines and reduced commitments help restore energy.
