Group activities are both energizing and exhausting this week. Thats because go-getter Mars and foggy Neptune mash it up in Pisces and your eleventh house of teamwork, pulling you in two decidedly opposing directions. Mars hands you the bullhorn and pom-poms, making you the spirit-finger waving cheerleader of the bunch. But Neptune is the martyr, making you prone to guilt trips; you could easily overburden yourself by taking too many obligations instead of sharing the load with your teammates. Its a balancing act for sure so youll have to monitor your participation carefully. Fortunately, logical Mercury enters the mix on Tuesday the 5th, joining Mars and Neptune in Pisces until April 12. The mental planet helps you organize your thoughts and communicate your needs. Speak up and ask for support! Delegate duties and dont just fall into de facto project manager mode. Remember too that many hands make light work. If youre struggling solo, call for backup. You might be surprised by who steps up to the plate, so drop your assumptions and reach out. On a more personal level, be careful not to absorb the emotions of the people around you. Mars can aggravate tension while Neptune can make you a psychic sponge. Its not your job to make everyone happy or to solve their problems, Bull! Getting in the middleeven if youre trying to play peacemakercan exacerbate tension instead of resolving it.Youll certainly be a social butterfly with this cosmic trifecta in the skies. Your sales skills are off the charts and you could knock it out of the park with a presentation. Is the tech sector calling your name? An online venture such as an e-commerce site or eBay store could help you bring home a fresh supply of bacon; you might get a genius idea for an app you want to develop. On Sunday, February 10, the new moon in Aquarius brings a fresh wave of support for your career. What are your grand goals for the year ahead? Your ambitious nature is stoked by this lunar event, and you might spend time this weekend making a wish list and vision board to further clarify your desires. A career triumph could be crystallized by the corresponding full moon on July 22. If you need a shot of motivation, try working with a coach or taking a productivity seminar that can help you stay aligned with your big picture plans. Helpful men enter the picture too, so stay open to support from the fellas! This new moon marks the beginning of a new chapter with a guy in your life. Let bygones be bygones and see what Phase 2.0 of your bond has in store.

General Characteristics of Taurus

Sensual Taurus is ruled by Venus, the planet of love and beauty. Your sign loves great food, romance and beautiful things. Venus kicks your five senses into high gear, so you are are happiest when surrounded by the best of everything. Satin sheets, gourmet dinners, a glass of red wine, and boom...you're relaxing into one of your famous, 14-hour naps. Not that you don't work hard, too. Like a bull, Taurus operates at two speeds: either totally relaxed, or charging headfirst towards a target. You prefer to keep the peace, but when you're pushed past your limit, watch out! Underneath it all, you just want to be comfortable, and surrounded by life's finest offerings. Taurus knows what s/he likes, and that's that. You stick with your opinions, and you don't change unless there's a really good reason. You can be stubborn...but on the upside, you're also loyal and dependable. Just be careful not to get stuck in a safety zone or your life could become stagnant. Take a chance and try something new. Sometimes, change and risk can bring the progress and reward you're wishing for.
