February 23 – March 1, 2026
Welcome to this week’s Astro-Strategic Solutions — your lighthearted look at municipal life, where the inbox is full, the coffee is strategic, and at least one project is labeled “Phase 1 (Revised).”
This week’s energy? Productive… but slightly dramatic.
This week’s theme? Reply Calmly. Move Strategically.
♈ Aries
You’re ready to respond immediately. Before hitting send, reread the email and remove the sentence that starts with “As previously stated.” You’ll feel better.
♉ Taurus
Budget conversations are circling back — again. Stay steady. You’ve already built the spreadsheet that answers the question. You just need to resend it.
♊ Gemini
You’re CC’d on things that may or may not involve you. This week’s leadership move? Respond where necessary. Observe where optional.
♋ Cancer
A resident email may arrive with strong feelings and multiple punctuation marks. Empathy first. Process second. Exclamation points optional.
♌ Leo
You may be asked for an update you sent yesterday. Provide it again — confidently. Transparency sometimes requires repetition.
♍ Virgo
Attachment-checking energy is strong. Confirm it’s actually attached. We’ve all learned this lesson before.
♎ Libra
Two departments. One project. Slightly different timelines. Your diplomacy prevents “calendar collisions.”
♏ Scorpio
You sense something small brewing in the background. Address it early and quietly — prevention doesn’t trend, but it works.
♐ Sagittarius
A new idea feels exciting. Before launching, confirm who owns implementation. Inspiration is wonderful. Ownership is better.
♑ Capricorn
Deadlines are motivating you. Protect one focused hour this week like it’s essential infrastructure.
♒ Aquarius
You’ve found a smarter way to do something. Present it clearly and prepare gently for, “But we’ve always done it this way.”
♓ Pisces
Team morale may need a light reset. A well-timed laugh or calm clarification can shift the tone of the entire week.
