Pisces (Feb 20-Mar 20):
Whether it's clearing a messy inbox or returning to a half-finished project, the week starts with a subtle push toward getting things in order. A minor victory on Wednesday changes the tempo, allowing you to move with more ease, after which you may feel like you're wading through treacle early on. The payout remains modest and unspectacular as curiosity prompts you to delve deeper into a subject or conversation you would ordinarily avoid. As the weekend approaches, you begin to feel a consistent, understated forward motion, as if it were something you had to work for. Things that are in motion already don't require your haste. In the middle of the week, you may have an awkward pause before responding to a text or phone call, or your friend may misunderstand your tone. When you're close to someone, the timing between you and them feels off. They're prepared to chat when you're still thinking about something, or the other way around. Things are somewhat resolved by Friday after an honest and straightforward check-in, but not entirely; next week, a loose end will still be present. Meeting people halfway is asked of you this week, even though you would prefer to wait. It's not a terrible week for connection, but it is demanding. Work remains doable, but painfully sluggish; for example, a report requires only one more edit, and an email has been in a coworker's draft for far longer than anticipated. Pushing yourself too hard in the beginning of the week will only make things worse.
