Cancer
June 22-July 22
To paraphrase Mark Twain, if you tell the truth you won’t have to work so hard to remember everything that you’ve said. It’s important that you explore the nature of your assumptions and motivations so that you can understand what is true and what isn’t, Moonchild. This week you’re likely to be confronted by a fair amount of anxiety and that can lead you to jump to conclusions, assuming the worst or compromising your empathy and ethics in exchange for safety. Do your best even when you feel your worst.

Leo
July 23-Aug. 22
Whatever you put into the world, you’re likely to get back this week. While it’s important to have a strong and healthy ego, it’s equally important to not use it to justify selfish behavior. This week you may feel entitled to defend yourself forcefully, but it’s wise for you to consider the long-term implications of how you do what you do. If you make enemies or alienate yourself unnecessarily, you’re really only trading in problems, not actually fixing them. Be the tortoise and not the hare and cultivate enough patience to determine the best way forward, Leo.

Virgo
Aug. 23-Sept. 22
If you give up before you try you are doing yourself a great disservice. First and foremost, this week it’s important to align yourself with your motivations. Slow down your material world and tend to your internal one, Virgo. The choices you make from here will meaningfully impact your life and your connections with those closest to you. Don’t allow perfectionism, fear or a lack of desire to be responsible for your own life to stop you from living up to your potential. You’ve got this, my love.

Libra
Sept. 23-Oct. 22
You are likely to be confronted by something that you need to let go of this week. This is just as likely to be a belief or habit, as much as it is a relationship or dynamic with someone. You don’t need to be perfect and neither do your relationships. What do you want to strive for? Is it healthy and authentic growth? Much of your evolution is happening on the inside at this time, as it should be. While you are making leaps and bounds internally, you may need the tempo of your life to slow down a bit, and that’s OK. Take responsibility for what you can do in a healthy way this week, Libra.

Scorpio
Sept. 23-Oct. 22
You may find yourself in a situation where you need to change even if you really don’t want to. You may understand the need for a loss in order to stay healthy and right with yourself, but that doesn’t mean that your heart agrees. Strive to understand the difference between what your heart wants and what it needs. Strive to understand the difference between a fear of experiencing difficult emotions and your intuition telling you to not go there. Your feelings are likely to be strong this week, Scorpio. Do the work you need to do to decode them.

Sagittarius
Nov. 22-Dec. 21
It’s time to lay down foundations, Sagittarius. The tricky thing is that this is slow work, which can be frustrating or demoralizing. Think about what you would like in a month, six months, a year or even five years. Based on whatever goals it is you have, where should your energies be focused on right now? Think about creating conditions that you can build upon and not only circumstances that feel good or satisfying in the here and now. You can’t control the future, but you can make choices that allow you to co-create it.

Capricorn
Dec. 22-Jan. 19
Whether you’re high or you’re low, it’s wise to not get attached to any fixed ideas of what it means about you. This week’s full moon in your sign is likely to confront you with some big, messy emotions. As you struggle to determine what it all means, the worst thing you can do is allow others to define that for you. It’s important for you to belong to yourself and no one else. Return to your own inner knowing and deepen your relationship to the Capricorn within, my hard headed friend.

Aquarius
Jan. 20-Feb. 18
This week it’s important that you consider the role that you play in your relationships. You may do everything right, but that might sometimes feel wrong. Be on the lookout for entrenched patterns from deep in your past showing up and playing themselves out in your assumptions, feelings and dynamics with others. Strive to be open with yourself and your process, and be willing to question the assumptions and motivations that are driving you. Change is inevitable; strive to create improvements wherever you can.

Pisces
Feb. 19-March 20
While you’re no stranger to anxiety you are also no stranger to being daring. This week is likely to find you engaging with opportunities that confront your anxieties and work with them to determine where you need to leap. You’ve grown and changed, Pisces. It’s finally time for you to determine what in your life needs to adapt as well. You can’t control how others feel or how situations progress, but you can get clear about what is and isn’t working for you, and explore what options exist outside of what isn’t working anymore.

Aries
March 21-April 19
You can move fast and achieve some measure of relief this week but it’s unlikely to last very long. As difficult as it may feel, give yourself the space you need to fully explore what’s right and true for you. The first layer of your reactions, feelings or perceptions is not reliably going to be the wisest. Reflect on the big picture implications of what you do before you act or you may find yourself in a heap of trouble that forces you to learn the very same lesson, just in a much stickier situation, Aries.

Taurus
April 20-May 20
If you’ve been working yourself too hard, not taking breaks or if you’re generally burnt out, this week is time to call back your energy and regain some balance. Achieving peacefulness in easy times is a cinch; achieving peacefulness when things are imperfect or unclear is a triumph. Strive to anchor yourself in the home you’ve cultivated within, instead of through your external circumstances. Situations come and go but the relationship you have with yourself lasts forever.

Gemini
May 21-June 21
Fear is a fickle friend. At times it can keep you safe from very real dangers, and then other times it can keep you stuck. When what you have are the highest of hopes and the deepest fears, what you most need is a bridge between the two. Strive to build that bridge this week, Twin Star. That might look like considering the small steps you need to take to get to the big prize. It might require you to ask for help or perspective. Investigate your fears so that you can learn from their wisdom and be strong enough to reject the ways that they could limit you.
