February is a time of celebration for many. Not only does it have possibly the most romantic day of the year - Valentine’s Day - it is also a period where Aquarians and Pisceans rejoice in being a year wiser.
However, the end of the month is accompanied by the retrograde of Mercury, which means that communications might be thrown into disarray and result in unwanted breakdowns. To combat that, try incorporating your lucky colour of the month according to your horoscope for an added boost of fortune and favour.
Workplace politics might be an issue for Aries babies, so it is best to stay cautious. Your dressing too, should be appropriate while not compromising on your personal style. This yellow floral skirt adds the right amount of colour and pattern. Keep it lowkey with a black top and heels.
