Patience is a Virtue

If you're still spinning your wheels and not gaining the traction you need to advance your career, you should remain patient this month. Your dynamic ruling planet Mars continues to backpedal in Leo until March 10, which might stir up old creative interests, yet makes it harder to advance new projects. Naturally, you may not have the luxury of doing nothing if you're seeking a job, but you may have luck returning to a position or field where you worked before. If this happens, don't be discouraged, because sometimes you have to go backwards before you can move forward again.

Colleagues and friends could play an important role this month with the Aquarius Sun in your 11th House of Groups until February 18. The New Moon in Aquarius on February 13 is especially important because it initiates a fresh cycle of alliances. Dreamy Neptune's conjunction with this New Moon can stir ideals and hopes of something more inspiring than your current job. While it's appropriate to let your imagination show you ways to be of greater service to humanity or conjure up fantastic business ideas, be skeptical of those who make big promises without a solid foundation to back them up. You could be drained or misled by tricky people or even those with good intentions but poor judgment.

Still, if you want to get organized, February 15 (give or take a day) offers a chance to operate at a higher-than-average degree of efficiency. The Sun's shift into Pisces on February 18 occurs in your 12th House of Privacy, which can put you in a retiring mood.
