Aquarius
Jan. 20-Feb. 18
The full moon in your relationship house this week is likely to surface the feelings you’ve been trying to repress. This isn’t a great time for trying to keep things light. Step into the messiness of your feelings and strive to be brave enough to stay with your shadow. If you can be non-judgmental and curious about what you find, you’ll be able to make meaningful progress that helps you to be more whole and present in your relationships. Keep on showing up, Aquarius.

Pisces
Feb. 19-March 20
You may have lots of ideas about what you ”should” do, where things were “meant” to be, or what you think others want. The truth is that here you are, and the unknown is just as it’s meant to be: mysterious. You’re where you’re at, with the resources you have, and there’s nothing to be done about it now. Be true to yourself in all scenarios, and allow for your life to unfold from that realness. You’ve got this, Pisces; just get centred before you get going this week.

Aries
March 21-April 19
It’s okay to be sad. The full moon on the 8th is likely to kick up hurtful feelings over an old situation that may be hitting you in fresh ways. Let yourself have whatever feelings you have without acting out, Aries. You aren’t likely a victim in this situation; allow yourself to be hurt without turning it into a battle (with others or against yourself). Your situation can teach you about boundaries—but it’s on you to be willing to learn, my love.

Taurus
April 20-May 20
You can get revenge, but if you feel you need to then you’ve already lost, Taurus. On a spiritual level, the only way to be successful—truly successful—is to not predicate others’ failure or struggles as a condition of your happiness. You are ready to shed some habits and attitudes that don’t serve you this week but it’s not completely easy. What you feed will grow; starve your pettiness by not giving it the attention it wants. This will help you choose your wisest (not your strongest) impulses.

Gemini
May 21-June 21
Something subtle but meaningful has shifted, and if you’re not careful, it can pass without you noticing. It’s time to honour your needs without watering them down, Twin Star. You’ve been working through some self-esteem issues that held you back from the level of thriving you’re capable of. There’s a break in the clouds, but you need to be looking up to see it. Take chances on yourself, my love. Happiness is around the corner, but you have to choose it.

Cancer
June 22-July 22
This week your ruling planet, the moon, is full and that means big feelings are likely to be stirring within you. If you’re feeling a sense of anxiety, strive to slow down and check in—not power through. What you want now is more space for love, but you can’t create that from panic. Give yourself a break, Moonchild. This isn’t a time for making sense of your emotions, as much as it’s one for tending to them, my love.

Leo
July 23-Aug. 22
There’s a full moon in your sign on the 8th and it marks a time for catharsis. In your search for peace, beauty or balance, you run the risk of trying to control matters. This will backfire on you, as this is the time for being receptive instead of forcing your will. Be open to compromise that you can live with, Leo. Don’t take on more, (or less!) than you can handle in a healthy way. If you're going to err, err on the side of too much communication this week.

Virgo
Aug. 23-Sept. 22
There is no external circumstance that will lead you to believe in yourself if you don’t first put in the work, sweet friend. You may feel like your ego is being kicked around but it’s not for nothing. Let your challenges motivate, not discourage you, this week. Choose yourself, Virgo. Whether that requires a shift in your inner dialogue, a change in your behaviour, or adjusting your expectations, now is the time to act in ways that better reflect the value you feel in yourself.

Libra
Sept. 23-Oct. 22
Don’t give up! You’re likely to be struggling against some mixed feelings and frustrations, and you may be tempted to walk away or throw in the towel. Challenge yourself to really sit with your fears. What are you actually scared of, Libra? What’s underneath your impulses and defenses is what you need to get to, or you’ll find yourself caught up in the same patterns on repeat. To gain traction with your problems, sit with the subtext and the nuance this week.

Scorpio
Oct. 23-Nov. 21
Sometimes you just need to decide that you’re going to be brave, and then fake it till you make it. The full moon on the 8th is likely to stir up major emotions and it’s no joke. You’ve got options in how you respond, Scorpio, even if it doesn’t feel like it. Take your time to honour your feelings and reactions before you decide how to engage with others this week. What you do now will have reaching consequences, so do your best to honour your wisest impulses, dear one.

Sagittarius
Nov. 22-Dec. 21
It's important not to point fingers this week. You may be so anxious for explanations as to why you’ve been feeling off that you start making up answers. Look at your choices, Sagittarius. What you’ve taken on is at the centre of what feels off to you. This isn’t the time for sleuthing things out, as much as it is a time for taking care of your most pressing emotional needs. Tend to your feelings before you decide what you need to do, or what so-and-so meant when they looked at you sideways, my love.

Capricorn
Dec. 22-Jan. 19
You can’t please all people all of the time, yourself included. This week, it's wise to approach what you take on with a bigger picture attitude. If you compromise your current commitments in efforts to take on or do more, do you end up compromising your reputation, or worse, your word? And if you do, is it worth it? There’s more to consider than meets the eye, so don’t forget to check in with yourself, and your calendars, before you say yes, Capricorn.
