This week may come with it’s fair share of frustrations and the potential for ego battles. Chanel your ego energies with intention and integrity or you may find yourself in a conflict that there’s no tidy way out of. Be especially on the lookout for defensiveness and agitation around the 13th, when combative Mars forms a square to transformative Pluto.
If you’re gonna fight, fight for what you believe in; now’s a time when what you put out there is likely to come back at you – with force.
ARIES
March 21-April 19
It's healthy and wise to engage in the kind of growth that changes you. The key, and often the hard part, is to integrate those changes thoughtfully over time. This week you’re in a powerful position to put revelations into action and to engage with your situation (as well as your feelings and thoughts) in new ways. Bring greater intention to all that you encounter, Aries, and while it may make you feel awkward, you’ll succeed in building new skills that will serve you moving forward.

TAURUS
April 20-May 20
If you’re overextended and overwhelmed, the worst thing that you can do this week is force yourself to take on more. Get present in this moment as it is, and get real about what it holds. How you participate is all on you, Taurus, and if you don’t set yourself up for success, you’re the one who’s going to have to deal with the consequences. This is a wise time to recalibrate (and maybe even redefine) expectations in your dealings with others.

GEMINI
May 21-June 21
Think about attaining your goals step by step instead of all at once this week. As uncomfortable as it may be, slow down and be watchful of what’s happening around you. The only way to be able to identify your healthiest and most honest boundaries is by properly understanding your situation as it is. Don’t jump to find the answers before you actually hear and sit with the questions. Measure twice and cut once for a change, Twin Star.

CANCER
June 22-July 22
The way in which you relate to sad or angry emotions needs a tune-up. Think of this week as an effective time for laying foundations within yourself. In this way, you can better cope with your life at large. Instead of fighting or judging your emotions, strive to accept and gracefully hold the good, the bad, and the ugly of them. There's only way to be truly honest and present with things and people that you care most about in life: you must start with yourself, sweet Moonchild.

VIRGO
Aug. 23-Sept. 22
When things go well, you're meant to go with the flow that you’ve created. The problem with this is that you may feel tempted to keep working to pull in the harvest when you already have more than enough in your pantry. In other words, why are you trying so hard if you’re not going to actually enjoy the fruits of your labors? Slow down and take stock of how far you’ve come, and then relax for a minute this week, Virgo.

LIBRA
Sept. 23-Oct. 22
As you sit with all of the unknown in life, it’s easy to get overwhelmed and stressed. Start (or rekindle) a gratitude list this week. Aligning your thoughts with what you have to be thankful for is neither a plan for coping with problems nor a magic bullet, but what it will do is connect you with what you do have. By extension, it will expand your resiliency. Tending to your feelings will support you in seeing the way forward more clearly, Libra.

SCORPIO
Oct. 23-Nov. 21
The pain that you feel now is not necessarily bad, even if it feels that way. As you get more present and honest with yourself about what isn’t working, it’s healthy and normal for repressed or avoided feelings to surface. The energy that it takes to evade your reality is no less than the energy it takes to cope with it. Make one small choice to face the truth, and then another, and keep on building on that, Scorpio.

SAGITTARIUS
Nov. 22-Dec. 21
When you're stressed and you don’t know what exactly is happening, it's easy to assign blame for what you’re feeling and how you got here. Instead of looking outside of yourself for answers, look within, Sagittarius. You’re not going to get peace by knowing why another person is a certain way or what motivated them to act however they do. You will achieve calm and wellness by how you choose to be in your life. This week, accept and handle your situation as it is.

CAPRICORN
Dec. 22-Jan. 19
You won’t find the answer by flailing about, my earthy friend. Slow down and determine what your boundaries are. This is not so that you can control your situation or others. Rather, it'll help you learn what you can do in a healthy way and how to protect that with both your intention and your actions. Things may be sticky this week, but they deserve your time, care, and attention. You don’t need to have it all figured out, but it’s time to get on the path, Capricorn.

AQUARIUS
Jan. 20-Feb. 18
The pain of healing hurts just as much as the pain of breaking. The former will bring you someplace better, albeit unknown, and the latter will keep you stuck or suffering. Do the work of changing your approach so that your awareness grows and helps you to transform your problems. If a thought, attitude, or friendship is causing you harm, stop feeding it with your attention. Take greater authority over what you choose this week, Aquarius.

PISCES
Feb. 19-March 20
If you’re overwhelmed, it’s time to slow down and get grounded, Pisces. you’re playing out some old patterns, and if you can see your own role and participation in these dynamics, you can find your way out of what isn’t serving you. This week, slowing down to investigate your situation will speed things along. Your past is a great guide—if only you can choose to learn from it. Introspection will take you far if you let it, my love.
