Aries
March 21 – April 19
Let the real you shine through! You’re showing your true colors, and everyone might be paying attention. Whether you’re on a platform in front of an audience of strangers or you’re being given the spotlight by people you already know, it’s time to take the stage and show everyone what you’ve got. Your passion is at an all-time high, so make sure that you’re channeling it into positive places. Put your best foot forward — the rest is up to fate!
Taurus
April 20 – May 20
The depths of a journey might not be visible until you get started. Whether this means that you’re continuing a literal trip with a more go-with-the-flow attitude, or you’re delving deeper into the specifics of an area of study, you’re meant to take the focus off of yourself a bit along the way. Don’t try to be controlling right now. Instead, absorb what’s going on around you and whatever you’re being taught. Be a sponge — you can worry about organizing it all later!
Gemini
May 21 – June 20
People that you can trust are updating elements of your life. You may have struggled to meet people who understood you on a deep level, or you might have not had time to spend with the people who have the deepest connections with you, but reuniting is a real possibility. They could bring the same inspiration and passion to your life that they used to, or that you’ve been seeking in a friend, and this should boost you to approach your life with renewed vigor.
Cancer
June 21 – July 22
Your responsibilities may connect you with fascinating people. You might have been merely showing up to do the work that you needed to do, either at a workplace or for a personal responsibility, but someone has likely been paying attention or is about to notice you. They can provide you with an opportunity to flourish more than you have been or awaken a passion within you that’s been dormant. Be open to exciting changes, even if they come from mundane places!
Leo
July 23 – August 22
You’re putting care and attention into getting yourself together. As you lay out a to-do list for the day, you have the potential to look at your methods with refreshed eyes. Ways that you’ve been wasting time or money could become more apparent to you now, or someone may even be teaching you a better way to work through any inner blocks when it comes to getting your life in order. Little by little, you’re learning a system that works for you!
Virgo
August 23 – September 22
There’s a leap of faith in front of you, Virgo. This is likely coming from a deep gut instinct — you may not have logic behind you, but your intuition is saying yes. It’s okay to feel a little hesitant, because it can be challenging to go this way. You might want to give up in the early stages, but once you get through the first few steps, the hard part should be behind you. Push through the discomfort to get the rewards!
Libra
September 23 – October 22
People from different areas of your life may begin coming together to assist you. You might be in need of some assistance in organizing a gathering for your friends and family. People who are only connected by knowing you could meet up for the sake of supporting or celebrating you. You’re meant to allow these people to intermingle and get to know one another, and in this way, get to know you better. Don’t be shy — let your friends and family be friends!
Scorpio
October 23 – November 21
What needs to be said, Scorpio? You may have been sitting on certain pieces of information until now, not sure if you wanted to share them, but something is telling you that what you have to say is important and should be given time and consideration. It’s all about emotional catharsis for you at this moment, so whether you’re writing down your thoughts in a journal or telling a professional, prioritize getting things off of your chest. You’re allowed to let go of them.
Sagittarius
November 22 – December 21
Newfound security can encourage you to take a risk. You may have felt like there was too much at stake to express yourself before. Now, though, a stable foundation has put you in a safer place to take a risk, knowing that you can pick yourself back up if everything doesn’t quite go to plan. Life is also about how you pivot when you’re knocked down, and the destination you’re pivoting toward could be better than where you’d initially been aiming for.
Capricorn
December 22 – January 19
Your emotions are a part of who you are. You may have discounted your emotions in the past as weakness or as a hindrance, but you’re learning that living in tune with your emotions instead of shoving them down builds more strength than it does weakness. The more that you’re able to tune into how you’re feeling in each moment, the better positioned you’ll be to find success and empathy with others. Your genuine feelings are trying to tell you something, not hold you back.
Aquarius
January 20 – February 18
Someone you haven’t spoken to recently could be at the forefront of your mind. It may have been an issue between you two that caused you to drift apart, or your communication gap might have been caused by others pulling you in different directions. Regardless of the specifics, you can reconnect. Even if you wouldn’t usually reach out first, it’s okay to be vulnerable — the planets are encouraging you to extend your hand. Simply asking them how they’re doing lately could be a great start.
Pisces
February 19 – March 20
You may be letting others pick you up when you’re not sure where to go. Even if you got off to a good start, once you reach a certain place, you’ll potentially hit a plateau. The people around you could have a clearer view of the situation than you do, or they may have been where you are in the past. Either way, at least consider their advice. You don’t need to do things their way exactly, just gain some perspective to avoid getting stuck.
