Expanding and Enhancing

That restless mind of yours can wander far this month, which is excellent for finding innovative solutions to work-related issues. But it also makes it more difficult for you to focus on what's right in front of you, feeding the easily-bored part of your personality. The Sun is in intelligent Aquarius and your 3rd House of Communication until February 18. Conversations flow quickly and connections come more easily when chatty Mercury also enters this part of your chart on February 10. If you're seeking work, it's a great time to reach out to people, even those outside your field. When you have enough interest in a subject, your ability to learn goes way up. And even if you're content where you are, this is an excellent time to increase your knowledge base. Building up professional contacts is also very useful now. Being friendly and chatty, even outside the job, could spark relationships that will be of value to you later.

You get some extra juice early in the month when your generous ruling planet Jupiter aligns favorably with potent Pluto on February 6. This influence lasts for about a week before and after that date and can save you from a perilous situation, revive a seemingly lost opportunity and make you a more powerful spokesperson for your beliefs. Your ability to sell ideas is strengthened, especially when you do so in a calm, rather than bombastic, manner. A more sensitive approach to potential employers, co-workers and customers is a must when the Sun enters vulnerable Pisces on February 18.
