Feel that anything is possible? A brighter outlook due to Mercury squaring off with the jovial vibes of Jupiter, could be the reason you aim high today and decide to start a project you’ve been dreaming about for a while. And yet unless you’re enthusiastic about it, you might run out of steam fast. If it underpins other plans and ideas that shape your future, you’ll be more inclined to stick with it.

Wondering if you’ve made a mistake by taking on something that seems to be getting more and more difficult? Present influences in your chart suggest that the coming weeks and months are very much about moving beyond your limits. You don’t have to go to battle with this challenge, but persevering can allow you to feel a great sense of exhilaration and accomplishment.

Your curiosity about a new friend could get the better of you. While it’s natural to want to know more, be mindful about digging too deep too soon, as it might jeopardise the budding relationship. Instead, let the connection unfold organically. The mystery can be part of the magic. Your intuition will guide you to the answers you need without risking trust. So just relax.

Ready to make progress on the social scene? If so, you’ll welcome the presence of the Sun, as it enters Pisces. Over coming weeks, you’ll sense it’s time to move in new circles and mingle with those who share your interests. Even so, the Quarter Moon in your travel sector hints that a trip or other opportunity could truly energise you, as it may be exactly what you’ve been seeking.

If finances have felt slugglish, Jupiter heading direct and an old contact or skill, can see a turnaround from the 4th. You may find yourself particularly nostalgic as February begins, but if you apply yourself, there are worldly opportunities to vie for. Your thinking can be crystal clear on the 9th, but balancing work/life pressures may come up on the 12th, with the lunation. Still, your networking skills will be important, both socially and professionally, as the month goes on. You can express yourself particularly effectively from the 18th and the 24th. Getting together with friends could be high up your agenda as the month winds down, or you may pivot towards making some very meaningful long-term plans.
