Libra
Sept. 23-Oct. 22
On the first of October there will be a full moon in Aries, in your relationship house. This means many things, but perhaps most notably, it indicates that something important will come up in your relationship(s) that has been too painful or uncomfortable to confront before now. Show up for your connections with others openly, and without attachment to how you think things “should” go. A compromise may need to be reached, just make sure it’s one you can live with.

Scorpio
Oct. 23-Nov. 21
When you are at your healthiest and very best you may or may not feel fantastic. How you feel and what you do don’t always line up, and that’s OK. You have been working so hard towards your growth and healing, and it shows. This week will be a time of accelerated development for you. Do what’s right, not what’s right in front of you, and stay committed to your big picture wellness without allowing the little things to derail you, Scorpio.

Sagittarius
Nov. 22-Dec. 21
This week it’s important that you move slowly, Sagittarius. Acting from a place of certainty and integrity is always well starred, but committing more of your energy than you actually have to give, well, while that’s on brand for you, it’s not great for anyone. Save something extra for yourself if you can. You may not be able to do it all at once, but that doesn’t mean that there’s something wrong with you! Love yourself well enough to pace yourself.

Capricorn
Dec. 22-Jan. 19
Even as you create new foundations, you’re likely to be dealing with old issues, and in particular, old fears of failure. This week it’s important that you centre self-care and patience in your approach. How you move through the struggles and successes of your life is as important as what comes of your actions, Capricorn. You’re evolving, and that means that the pace of your development is likely to be somewhat circular for a while. Don’t sweat it.

Aquarius
Jan. 20-Feb. 18
You are preparing for a deep and meaningful transformation in your life this week. Now is the time to build incrementally towards change. It’s not a great time for experiencing stability and security, or even consistent assurances, but that doesn’t mean that you’re not on your way. Find value in what you devote your attention and energy to, instead of through what you have at this very moment, Aquarius.

Pisces
Feb. 19-March 20
As you change, you’re likely to be met with new questions, new struggles, and the ongoing need to recalibrate—at least for a little while. You’ve been working hard to develop yourself, and you are making gains. The trouble is, you don’t have fewer problems as a result, you have different ones. You’re on the right track, Pisces, but this is just how it goes. Give yourself permission to be where you’re at this week, even if you wish you were somewhere else.

Aries
March 21-April 19
It’s only natural that you will be at the centre of your own experience, Aries. That said, if you don’t consider the needs and roles of others, you might end up alienating yourself—or them. On October 1st there will be a full moon in your sign. It may bring about some sort of catharsis of identity or within your closest relationships. Don’t seek the answer, as if it were a fixed point that you can get right or wrong; only seek the truth in context of your realities, my love.

Taurus
April 20-May 20
While on the outside it appears that you like to move slowly, on the inside you’re constantly busy, Taurus. There is vulnerability in sitting with your emotions and not seizing every chance to control or secure things in your life. While it is good to make yourself and others comfortable, it shouldn’t come at the expense of authenticity. Allow for some discomfort in your process as you determine what is the best (not the easiest or even most palatable!) way forward.

Gemini
May 21-June 21
Even when you get what you want there’s an element of uncertainty to the path forward. This week may feel more than a little bit confusing, Twin Star. While on paper everything is perfectly fine—or at the very least you are doing your best within imperfect situations, something is likely to feel off. Part of rising to the occasion includes being present for the complexity of your feelings instead of overriding them because they’re inconvenient.

Cancer
June 22-July 22
Sometimes the kindest thing you can do for yourself or another person will upset or disappoint someone. It’s wise to be able to tell the difference between cruelty and difference, Moonchild. Sometimes our differences hurt, but that doesn’t mean that they are intended to harm. Sometimes what feels easy in the short term is actually bad for you. Consider your motivations and the motivations of others before you respond to whatever life puts in front of you this week.

Leo
July 23-Aug. 22
You can do your best, you can try your hardest but you can’t control what will come of it, I’m afraid. There’s no need to lose your confidence or your optimism even if matters are developing slowly or in zigzag ways, Leo. Do what brings you joy because it brings you joy, instead of for the rewards. Your challenge, whether or not you choose to accept it, is to find meaning in the process even when you’re feeling impatient with your progress.

Virgo
Aug. 23-Sept. 22
In order to effectively move through the terrain you’re in, you need to deal with your anxieties. If you allow yourself to fixate on what you can’t know and what you can’t control, you’ll feel overwhelmed by worries and stress this week. If you can stay with the patterns that you are dealing with, the big picture of what you’re trying to achieve, and your emotions, you’ll be able to maintain your centre without losing your focus. Steward this moment alone, dear Virgo.
