An important decision requires your attention. Work may involve meetings and contracts right now as you work to close a deal. Play attention to the needs of those closest to you in order to resolve any conflicts at home. You want to break from routine right now and seek fresh ideas. Work may feel draining and uninspiring but stick to the tasks and responsibilities before you. Fresh dreams and inspiration are headed your way. Sometimes without leaps of imagination we lose the excitement of possibilities.

Failure is not an option, Taurus. Nor is it a topic you’ll entertain while communicator Mercury zips into Aquarius and your tenth house of status and success, giving you a one-track mind. Until February 14, keep a sharp eye on those goals. Your greatest inspiration may come from staying on your grind for an extra hour or two. Call up a mentor and book some QT. The influence of an experienced person could help you get ahead or clarify your path. Stay alert for a leadership opportunity and, if you're job-hunting, get your resume and LinkedIn current.
