Your weekly horoscope: May 31 - June 6, 2017

Gemini

May 21-June 21

There’s a reason they say that freedom isn’t free, my friend. If you want to have full rein over your life, that includes all the boring stuff and the hard stuff. This week you may have to deal with some of the costs of your liberty, but it’s totally worth it. Don’t let other people’s ideas about what is or isn’t possible limit you, Twin Star. If you’re willing to follow through on your passions, you’ll find that you can achieve most anything this week.

Cancer

June 22-July 22

This week, look for that moment when you feel frustrated and like giving up. Notice the thoughts that accompany your feelings, and be interested in their content and tone. Are you a kind and loyal friend to yourself? Show yourself generosity when you need it most. This week, you’ll have choices to make, and there’s unlikely to be a right or wrong answer. Choose the path that sparks the most joy, Moonchild.

Leo

July 23-Aug. 22

As things change it’s only natural for you to feel overwhelmed. This week, all kinds of feels and fears are coming up. The trick is not to Netflix and disassociate — instead, it’s time to face the music. First, get clear about what you’re really concerned about, and for each concern, name the three of the worst things that can happen as a result. Next, write out a couple of things you can do if you have to deal with those worst-case scenarios. Break things down to gain more control over your fears, Leo.

Virgo

Aug. 23-Sept. 22

There’s no way to the other side that doesn’t involve going through it, Virgo. This week you may feel like you’ve reached your limit, but don’t give up! It’s time for you to take stock of the stuff you’ve been carrying with you and lay some of your burdens down. It’s your job to prioritize what needs to get done, what can’t live without your attention, and what you need to let go of for now. If you have reasonable expectations of yourself, you’ll feel better and be more effective, my love.

Libra

Sept. 23-Oct. 22

If you feel like hiding from the world to make yourself feel better, it won’t work. You need people, and people need you, Libra. Reach out to people you trust, and honour your feels enough to share them. Your anxieties will whisper all kinds of reasons to hide your true self from others, but don’t listen to them; this is your time to try new ways of connecting with people. If you don’t have loved ones nearby, volunteer your time to help out a neighbour. Connection will feed your soul this week.

Scorpio

Oct. 23-Nov. 21

You don’t have to take on other people’s troubles as an act of loyalty, Scorpio. This week you’re on call to have healthy boundaries with the people that you love. Chose to bear witness to their issues instead of running in to side with them in a big show of solidarity. Showing up doesn’t mean you have to agree with everything. It just means being there for someone in their moment of need.

Sagittarius

Nov. 22-Dec. 21

Relationships are a constant work in progress; even the best ones have their problems, and you can have a lovely time with someone who’s just not trustworthy. Check in with your choices, ‘Tarius. You’re in a place where you’re meant to take stock of what you’re participating in and whether it’s serving you or not. You may have to watch out for power struggles that miss the point, or dynamics that are going in circles this week. The changes you want to see should start with you.

Capricorn

Dec. 22-Jan. 19

When it comes to the things you want, do you know why you want them? You’re likely to find that the stuff you want to feed your ego will be pretty hard to digest. Make sure that you’re not competing with someone for a prize you don’t really care about, Capricorn. You may need to be willing to let go of a dream or a plan that you once thought would bring you happiness because now you know better. Create the life you want by aligning yourself with what brings you happiness in the here and now.

Aquarius

Jan. 20-Feb. 18

They say what doesn’t kill you makes your stronger, and you may need to make it your mantra this week. Your fear of loss is so great that you may feel tempted to bail preemptively, but don’t do it, Aquarius. Make the choice to get real about your issues and how they’ve been impacting your relationships. It’s time for you to step up and deal with the stuff you’ve been obsessing over — finding a constructive attitude will do you a world of good.

Pisces

Feb. 19-March 20

This week is time for action, Pisces. You’ve been worrying over your plans for some time now, and it’s finally your moment to make your plans materialize. Don’t worry about getting things done quickly. That’s not as important as getting them done well. The better thought out your plans are, the easier it will be to track your progress. Things are likely to start moving quickly around you, so stay internally steady as you let your success manifest.

Aries

March 21-April 19

It’s easy to point fingers, but it won’t get you very far. This week is all about the power of your heart, Aries. If you act in ways that you’re able to justify, but in your heart of hearts you know isn’t right, you’re likely to feel off this week. Even if it’s hella awkward, now’s the time to be vulnerable and offer yourself to the people or causes that you believe in. Behave in new ways and attract new dynamics into your life because real change has to start with you.

Taurus

April 20-May 20

Things are most likely not as bad as you fear they are, Taurus. Your attachment to security can get you to cling on to the rough stuff, even when you’re trying to let it go. This week is going to offer you chances to release your grip on the people and things that you’re ready to outgrow. Change is hard, but it’s also really good. You can transform your life in stages, but it’s important that you stay on track. Life is meant to be lived; take chances to make yours spectacular.
