Puerto Rico continues to observe the legacy of Walter Mercado, the late astrologer, actor, dancer, and writer, as his daily horoscopes remain popular, particularly within the Hispanic community. For Tuesday, February 24, 2026, predictions have been released offering guidance on love, career, and personal well-being, despite Mercado’s passing in 2019.
According to forecasts published by Semana.com, specific numbers are associated with each zodiac sign for those seeking luck in games of chance. For Aries (March 21 – April 19), the numbers 39, 17, and 6 are highlighted. Individuals born under this sign are advised to be mindful of their words and avoid unnecessary conflicts, with social connections seen as key to attracting prosperity.
Taurus (April 20 – May 20) may find favorable influences in building relationships with influential people who could open doors professionally and economically.
El Tiempo reports that for Libra (September 23 – October 22), maintaining order is crucial to avoid problems.
The horoscopes, now delivered through Mercado’s niece, Betty B. Mercado, via El Nuevo Herald, continue a tradition established during his lifetime. Mercado, known as Shanti Ananda, was a cultural phenomenon, having studied pedagogy, psychology, and pharmacy at the University of Puerto Rico, skills he integrated into his astrological approach.
While the specific predictions for the remaining signs have not been widely disseminated in the available sources, the continued publication of these horoscopes demonstrates the enduring appeal of Mercado’s optimistic and flamboyant style.
The forecasts are intended not only to inspire confidence but also to invite reflection, according to Semana.com.
