Love Lanyadoo Astrology 10.16-22.2019
This week comes with some harmonious transits, which will help move along projects and aid in your progress. That said, if you’re caught up in unhealthy or destructive patterns, these transits will advance that, too. In the inspiring words of Alex Elle “Peace is not always easy to grasp or keep close. In the process of attaining and protecting it, you may find yourself tired, weary, and uncertain on how to keep your peace safe. While being uncertain is normal, continue to commit yourself to peacefulness. You are worthy of every drop of sweetness and ease that you encounter. Being tested is a part of the journey. Giving up, and letting go, is not.”

ARIES
March 21-April 19
You’re figuring stuff out (yay!), but you’re not likely to be totally happy with what you’re finding (boo!). The only way to create real and sustainable change is by first properly understanding your problems. Don’t get so caught up in your newfound understanding that you lose sight of what it all means. Strive to find healthy middle-ground between what you need and what you want, and also between getting to work while also supporting yourself. Take it step-by-step this week, Aries.

TAURUS
April 20-May 20
It’s not perfect, but that doesn’t mean that it’s not right, Taurus. It would be easy to get thrown off by what you don’t have, what isn’t working, or some other out-of-your-control thing, this week. Instead of trying to make your life take a specific shape, strive to make the most out of what you’ve got for now. Once you accept your situation, you'll find you are resourceful and capable. Instead of bold and sweeping changes, make subtle adjustments to what you have in front of you, my love.

GEMINI
May 21-June 21
Having healthy boundaries is a practice. It requires that you know what you need, that you've given yourself permission to have it, and then that you assert it. But the work doesn’t stop there! If you express that you don’t want to gossip anymore on Monday, but show up on Thursday with a juicy tidbit, or lean in when someone else has one, then you’ve done it, Twin Star. You need to lead the charge in honoring your expressed needs and limits, especially when it’s tempting to revert to old habits.

CANCER
June 22-July 22
This week will confront you with a test of strength, but not a show of it. Your ego, when out of balance, can work at cross-purposes to your Soul. This week is a powerful time to bolster your inner world or to assert yourself in a situation without the use of your ego. This will require you to truly believe in what you are doing and in your inalienable value as a person, my love. Align your intentions with your will, and leave your defensive ego alone. You have nothing to prove, Moonchild.

LEO
July 23-Aug. 22
It’s important that you find your own answers. This week, looking outside of yourself to determine your value, what to do, or even what to feel is only going to make you feel worse. It’s time to let go. You may have to let go of something you've been fighting yourself on, or something that you feel disoriented about, but it’s ultimately on you to figure it out. Be brave enough to confront your fears and wise enough to learn from your own past, Leo.

VIRGO
Aug. 23-Sept. 22
Fear can have wisdom in it, but it is not an inherently wise feeling. One thing is certain — if you recoil from it, you’ll never know what of it is worth heeding versus what just needs a hug, your Dear Diary, and a nap. Don’t be so quick to resolve your problems that you don’t first strive to properly understand them. You need to make some choices, but you won’t get very far if you’re operating on autopilot. Stay present through all of your feelings this week, Virgo.

LIBRA
Sept. 23-Oct. 22
This week will test your ability to stand your ground. If you need to get defensive or self-punishing in order to hold a boundary, then you have work to do — but it’s not exactly the work you may think it is. Dig within and identify your feelings about your right to be complicated, your right to be wrong, to not know, or to be thriving spectacularly — and anything in between. Validating your own perspective is the foundation upon which your boundaries are built, dear Libra.

SCORPIO
Oct. 23-Nov. 21
Let the words of John Lennon inspire you this week, Scorpio: “There are two basic motivating forces: fear and love. When we are afraid, we pull back from life. When we are in love, we open to all that life has to offer with passion, excitement, and acceptance. We need to learn to love ourselves first, in all our glory and our imperfections. If we cannot love ourselves, we cannot fully open to our ability to love others or our potential to create.”

SAGITTARIUS
Nov. 22-Dec. 21
More than anything, you need a serious dose of TLC this week, Sagittarius. Reorient your energy to prioritize self-care; your body, heart, and that quirky mind of yours all need a bit of tending to. It’s not selfish to take what you need, and it’s not needy to ask for help. The key for you is to validate your own experience while understanding that it’s your job to be the steward of your own welfare. This may not be the most glamorous moment, but it’s key to your happiness.

CAPRICORN
Dec. 22-Jan. 19
It’s a delicate balance — challenging yourself and overextending, growing your resources and hoarding. Practice checking in with yourself this week, Cappy. If you forget your true goals, you’re likely to overwhelm yourself with too many obligations or ideas, and it’ll feel like too much to lose. Remember what you’re in it for, and leave keeping up with the Jones’ to the other signs. All you need to worry about is your personal best.

AQUARIUS
Jan. 20-Feb. 18
You deserve to be true to yourself in all of your eccentric glory. This doesn’t mean that there are no consequences to your choices though. Life is just a series of cause and effect with a random thread of chance thrown in to keep things unpredictable. It’s important that you honor your truth, but not at the expense of others, Aquarius. This week may find you coping with the after-effects of your actions. Take responsibility for your part, and grow as you learn.

PISCES
Feb. 19-March 20
No matter what anyone else says, it’s on you to make sure that your life is yours. That means that your compromises should not be careless or conflict-avoidant — they should reflect the wisest strategy in front of you. It’s time to up your game, Pisces, but it will take a measure of self-possession and confidence that you’ve only been flirting with. This is the time for bravery, my love.
