People are looking for you to step down or get out of the way, but that won’t be happening. Their priorities are not your priorities, and if there was ever a time to sit down in the middle of the road and wait things out, then it would be now. It’s true you’ll have to put up with their nagging, insults, and even threats, but you were born with a thick hide. You’ve endured worse. And like a castle that’s lifted its drawbridge and drained the moat, you’ll find that your patience is longer than theirs, which will produce an eventual judgment in your favor.

The reason Venus likes to partner is because she believes that as a pair you can accomplish twice as much for half the effort. It’s a truism that works if the two parties are properly matched, and thankfully you are. But what happens when Jupiter is thrown into the mix on February 24th, courtesy of a Venus/Jupiter square? People like to say there’s no such thing as too much of a good thing, but there is if it throws you off balance or creates more demand than you can meet. Used to thinking small-scale, you’ll soon need to think bigger than you’ve ever thought before.

They say that Mercury, planet of thinking, struggles in the zodiac sign of Pisces, but that’s a matter of perspective. You’ve never been one for facts and stats. That sort of staccato analysis misses the point of the links between parts. It’s why you’ve always been an associative thinker β paddling from idea to idea in a free flow stream of consciousness. Mercury in Pisces from February 23rd to March 9th will help you uncover the theme that weaves disparate ideas into a polychromatic tapestry. And like a Buddhist sand mandala painstakingly put together over a period of time, it will be erased entirely upon completion.

It’s tempting to shortchange someone who treated you poorly and doesn’t deserve to be repaid. They didn’t keep their word, so why should you? Unfortunately, the only person you’d be cheating is yourself. It’s unfair being the injured party who has to recompense the person who wronged you, but do it. You don’t want to be around this toxic energy any longer than you have to be. It’s like wanting to retaliate against a driver who rides your tail or runs a red light. This person is an accident waiting to happen, and the sooner you’re as far away from them as possible, the better.

You already got your answer (which was no), so why hang around? Because you want to. Sure, they hired somebody else for the job you applied for, but you’d still like to work for that company one day. And yes, the person you’re attracted to may be in a relationship, but that doesn’t mean you can’t be friends. People say you’re either being a masochist or asking for trouble, and they’re entitled to their opinion. As an Aries – whose Mars is traveling through Aquarius – you have no problem waiting for things to change, and when they do β you want to be the first in line.

You may want to place sticky notes as reminders around the house, leave voice memos to yourself, or come up with your own version of Ariadne’s thread while Ruling Planet Mercury is in Pisces. Mercury is in both detriment and fall in the zodiac sign of the fish, which means that you may feel at times like Ingrid Bergman in search of her heirloom brooch in the movie Gaslight. So are you being deliberately misled, or is this all a trick of the mind? It’s hard to tell, but that won’t always be the case – especially when the mental fog lifts on March 9th.

Saying “yes” doesn’t mean you’re making a final commitment. It’s a Gemini thing to use a sliding scale for determining how in or out you truly are. Although the Venus/Mars conjunction on February 22nd shows you’re serious about wanting to partner with someone romantically, professionally, or creatively; you still like to keep your options open. It allows you to relax and to think straight. That said, you’ll want to be sure that your fence-sitting isn’t sending the wrong message. You may be spooking the other party without meaning to, which could lead them to go with somebody else. You don’t want to wind up empty-handed.

There’s never just one cure-all. Not with you. The way out of a tight fix usually involves a series of short-term solutions stitched together to help you get from here to there. You hate having to borrow from Paul to pay Peter or coax a situation on its last legs to keep going just a little longer, yet this is also when you are the most creative and resourceful. You may yearn for security, but you also know there’s nothing more deadening than the formulaic. The trick is to find the midpoint between consistency and cacophony; something you’ll be discovering in the weeks to come.

There’s often an undeniable attraction when Venus conjoins Mars in the sky (February 22nd). Yet what should be a romantic encounter can easily turn into a game of one-upmanship when they come together in Aquarius. That’s because each planet is trying to impress the other with their intellect and worldly experience. Since neither is willing to play the appreciative audience, it can turn into a standoff. Be the first to praise the other person β even if it feels like you’re fanning their ego β and you’ll soon see that the reason they wanted to impress you was in order to get you to like them.

Paying your dues may seem like an outdated notion, but it’s still a fact of life. There are times when we have to work hard without proper pay and are forced to make sacrifices. It seems exploitative, but there’s no denying the wealth of experience that you accrue. This is something that will be infinitely recognizable on February 24th when Venus squares Jupiter. Many people are promoted to positions before they’re ready, and this is when everyone sees that they’re untried or all show and no track record. Yours is coming at just the right time to show you off in the best light possible.

Are you imagining things, or is your partner checking up on you? What else can explain the barrage of texts asking where you are and what you’re doing? And here you thought that you were the jealous one in the relationship. It’s nice being the focus of so much attention – not only from your partner but also the person your partner’s obsessed with. Now you could say that there’s nothing to worry about, but where’s the fun in that? Enjoy being fought over. Not only is it a welcome role reversal, but it also teaches people what it’s like to be in your shoes.
