ARIES
March 21-April 19
It’s hard to own your part without descending into guilt or defensiveness. Humility is a show of true strength, and collaboration is the embodiment of righteous power. You always have a choice in how you respond to your emotions and engage with others, Aries, and this week you’re likely to feel tested on that front. Don’t prove yourself to anyone but you. Embodying your truth doesn’t require a show; it only requires that you show up.
TAURUS
April 20-May 20
If you can’t accept your situation as it really is, you’ll find yourself in a frustrating position by this week's end. Your relationships need a touch of patience, a serving of empathy, and a huge dose of succinct and honest verbal communication, Taurus. You can’t determine the best course of action before you properly understand where you're starting from and what you truly want. On your path to the truth, be willing to change your mind and confront contradictions.
GEMINI
May 21-June 21
Instead of playing games that you can’t really win, it’s time to step into your truest self. You can’t know what will happen as a result of the changes you want to implement in your life, but that shouldn’t stop you, Twin Star. Do what’s right because it’s right and not for what you’ll get out of it. The goal I encourage you to put above all else is wholeness. Whatever it costs you is worth it.
CANCER
June 22-July 22
Relationships are complicated, and this week's transits are likely to rattle you more than a little bit. How you respond to emotional intensity will be challenged, so here’s a pro tip to help you out: look for the patterns this week. When odd repetitions are at play, recognize them as the Universe's attempt to grab your attention. Make choices that reflect your heart rather than the worst part of your situation or your defenses. You’re ready to rise to the occasion, Moonchild.
LEO
July 23-Aug. 22
When you’re struggling with someone, it's easy to forget that you're on the same team as them. If your desire to win comes at the expense of your willingness to listen, you’ve got a fight on your hands that may turn rogue, Leo. Strive to be the change you wish to see in your relationships this week. That might mean leading the way because it’s the right thing to do—and not in an attempt to coerce someone. Do your part, and see what’s left from there.
VIRGO
Aug. 23-Sept. 22
Breaking with the old to make space in your life for the new is exactly what you need this week, but that doesn’t mean that it feels good. Trust what you know of your self, your needs, and what you must do, even if it takes you down a hard path. You’re likely to find yourself in the throws of an old lesson that you thought you’d already learned. Now’s the time to prove it, Virgo. Walk your talk in spite of your fears, my love.
LIBRA
Sept. 23-Oct. 22
If you rush to please everyone, you’re likely to forget yourself, dear Libra. Give yourself the gift of time this week. There are a lot of balls in the air, and it's likely to feel like you need to respond right away, but do you? Why? Explore your situation honestly before you respond to it. You can't control how others feel or what they do. All you’ve got to manage is the integrity of your own actions. Take your time, and do your best, my love.
SCORPIO
Oct. 23-Nov. 21
You're at the end of a long and confusing journey. Now is the time for you to find new ways of perceiving and understanding yourself and your situation. While you don’t need to be perfect or to rush things, this is a powerful time to put in earnest effort, Scorpio. Only you can free yourself from old patterns of thinking. While asking for help is wise, it isn't the same as doing the work. Strive to show up in new ways, and let the struggle change you, my love.
SAGITTARIUS
Nov. 22-Dec. 21
The nature of true happiness is infectious. It expands to touch more than the moment, the surface of an experience, or even you individually. It’s a light that illuminates the whole room, not just the object of your attention. This week your job is to make sure that the things that are giving you pleasure are also making you happy. Seek the depth of experience that you deserve. Prioritize the things that both please you now and also generate your wellness in the future.
CAPRICORN
Dec. 22-Jan. 19
To quote the Greek philosopher Heraclitus, “change is the only constant in life.” You aren’t meant to stay the same and neither is anyone else. This week you’re likely to be confronted with a difficult reality about yourself or someone you’re close to, and you have a choice to make: struggle against it, or yield. Instead of trying to force your will onto your situation, sit with your feelings and see where that takes you. Try to start with acceptance, Capricorn.
AQUARIUS
Jan. 20-Feb. 18
When hippies and astrologers tell you to let go, we don’t mean that you should stop striving. Letting go is an emotional shift in perspective. When you’re too attached to what you think the story is or what the answer should be, you get in your own way. Practice sitting with your emotions without seeking answers and explanations this week. You won’t become less logical if you better understand your inner landscape, Aquarius, I promise.
PISCES
Feb. 19-March 20
You have the right to say no, and others have the right to be annoyed by it. This week you may find yourself struggling with how much space to take up. Your need for self-maintenance is real, and it shouldn’t be compromised in a way that harms you. Also, your commitments are tied to your word and your honor. Strive to balance what you can and can’t do in a way that won’t diminish your trustworthiness (to yourself or others), Pisces.
