ARIES
March 21-April 19
You can have it all, but you can’t have it all at once. This week, it’s important that you pace yourself, especially when you’re feeling impatient. If you allow your restlessness and desire for quick results to drive you, you will end up with a boatload of anxiety and not a whole lot to show for it. Take your time to do things in a way that’s right for you, even if that’s a more uncomfortable path. This is a very maturizing moment for you; seize it, Aries.

TAURUS
April 20-May 20
You may have to clear some things up this week, Taurus. Your relationships have been changing, and what’s unclear is a little bit of everything. Take time to listen to what others are telling you, both with their words and their actions. You are dealing with patterns in your interpersonal life, and in them you do have agency. Act in ways that reflect the person you want to be, not the person you once were or the person others expect you to be, my love.

GEMINI
May 21-June 21
You have some clarity about what your limits and needs are, but that doesn’t mean that you've clearly communicated them to others yet. This week may be instrumental to your relationships leveling up, Twin Star. Your challenge is to clearly convey your intention without micromanaging or obsessing on what others do with that information. Let others reveal themselves to you this week, and only try to figure out what to do with that information once you have it.

CANCER
June 22-July 22
New moons are always an especially sensitive time for you, as your ruling planet starts a new cycle. The shifts that you’re likely to feel on and around the 11th are meant to provoke a driving impulse for change. Your job is to make sure that your motives are clean and that you’re prioritizing your best interests over your most immediate comfort. How you respond to your emotions and your situation is what will ultimately define you at this time, Moonchild, so act with kindness and clarity this week.

LEO
July 23-Aug. 22
This week is a powerful time to commit your plans to paper. Organize your thoughts outside of you, so when emotions run high, you don’t lose track of your plans or yourself. Things can always go sideways; that’s a risk you take whether you’re actively engaged in moving your life forward or not. Be brave, and don’t allow fear or pride to stall your progress or throw you off your path. Let others help. You don’t have to do this alone, and you don't have to do it perfectly, Leo.

VIRGO
Aug. 23-Sept. 22
If you allow yourself to get hung up on the details of your situation, you’re likely to miss out on the underlying patterns of your participation. Don’t undermine your progress by obsessively tracking the little things. You don’t need to prove or justify yourself; all you need to do is be interested in the situation at large, and then take responsibility for your part. This is one of those times when moving slowly through your process is the most vulnerable and effective way forward.

LIBRA
Sept. 23-Oct. 22
Your relationships are likely to be pushing you to embody changes that may be hard to face this week. You may not be able to perfectly resolve matters, but instead of falling back on people-pleasing habits, you can always act in ways that reflect your integrity. In the face of uncertainty, strive to be humble and strong, Libra. Own what you do and don’t know, and be patient with others. This moment is pivotal for you, but it isn’t written in stone.

SCORPIO
Oct. 23-Nov. 21
Your relationships are in a state of flux, and there are no right or wrong answers — only actions and consequences, choices and circumstances. Instead of reacting to your feelings and fears, strive to be a bit more reflective and self protective this week. What is it that you really want, Scorpio? Have you communicated that effectively to the people you care about? Have you given others the time they need to show up? To get what you truly need, be honest.

SAGITTARIUS
Nov. 22-Dec. 21
When you really truly grow, you must outgrow old ways of being that are no longer serving you. While this may sound lovely in practice, it often means a confrontation with loss. You may lose old ideas, habits, or even relationships that you are still very identified with. Explore your attachments with an open mind, Sagittarius. You are going through a meaningful growth spurt, and you are likely to encounter some endings that hurt as they play themselves out.

CAPRICORN
Dec. 22-Jan. 19
As you grow and change, you’re likely to have to break some very ingrained old habits, Capricorn. This week, your challenge is to embody your boundaries, whether it’s crucial, easy, or otherwise. Change is always scary, even when things are objectively improving. It may require some temporary discomfort, but strive to make things better in the long run by honoring what you know of yourself in the here and now.

Everything is coming up Aquarius this week, and it ain’t half bad. There will be a New Moon on the 11th in your sign, and this marks a moment of great potential for you. Carve out space to clarify your intentions, your vision, and your desires this week. You’re on the verge of embodying some long-developed, hard-won changes, and it may feel pretty overwhelming. This is your time to be brave and forthright, my futuristic friend.

PISCES
Feb. 19-March 20
While things may not be developing in quite the way you wish they would, the very troubles that you’re coping with right now are pointing you towards what needs your attention. Instead of lamenting what is or wishing what could be, determine the problems—no matter how small—that you can tackle in efforts to bring forth some resolution. This isn’t the time for comparing yourself to others or losing energy on what ifs. Do your best in the here and now, Pisces.
