Healing, restful activities are helpful.Taurus

You’re often on the go, even if this is figuratively speaking, and while you’re not always focused and concentrating, you’re branching out and learning a lot in the process. You can be motivated to express yourself more clearly in your communications. You’re also excited to share your ideas and opinions. This cycle is more about discovery and branching out than specializing. Consider it a natural time for putting your feelers out.Aquarius

The Sun moves into your sign today, dear Pisces, and it will visit until March 20th. You are at a yearly personal peak when you’re more inclined to take mindful action rather than merely react to what is happening around you. You hold more power than usual to make resolutions and to make changes that truly improve your life. As more attention comes to you, you quite naturally want to get your act together. You’ve spent many days contemplative and perhaps in the background in significant ways, and while you’ve likely been quite inspired, the motivation to get up and go may have been lacking. You are regaining your initiative now. The cycle ahead is one in which you’re especially noticeable and feel more in charge and capable.* Remember to read horoscopes for your Ascendant sign and Sun sign.
