Taurus

April 20-May 20

You don’t need to take on other people’s stresses or negative projections about the future. What may or may not happen is ultimately unknowable; all you really have is this moment to manage. This week is a time for beginnings, Taurus, and the exciting part of that is, in part, all that you don’t know. Revel in the potential in your life without telling yourself that feelings are facts, or trying to skip to the part where you’re certain and secure. Enjoy the ride, Taurus.

Gemini

May 21-June 21

There are so many things that can go wrong in life that if you try to project into them and second guess your actions, you’ll never have peace. This week I give you this simple, but very difficult piece of homework: accept where you’re at. Accept how you feel, accept your past, accept the people around you, and accept the world that you live in. That’s all. It’s time to stop obsessing on what you think could or should be. Be here now and act from that place.

Cancer

June 22-July 22

Making decisions is hard, especially when you are more scared of the consequences than you are excited about the potential. While it’s wise to ask for help, this week it’s essential that you choose your counsel wisely. If you abandon your own discretion, you may find yourself listening to the most negative person in the room, or just getting more confused with too much data. Simplify, clarify, and decide. You don’t need to justify or defend yourself, Moonchild.

Leo

July 23-Aug. 22

Pay attention to what others are showing you about themselves. If we’re being honest, people don’t always know what they’re doing. When someone is weird with you or gives you mixed messages, there may be a nefarious intent behind it, but it’s just as likely that it isn’t personal and has little to do with you, really. Don’t take everything so personally that you miss out on what’s actually going on. Not everything is about you, and sometimes that’s a wonderful thing.

Virgo

Aug. 23-Sept. 22

How you relate to problems is in many ways more important than anything else this week. You don’t need to get it right. You don’t need to get ahead of it. All you need to do is determine what’s true for you, and validate that in your own experience. Once you’ve done this, you can more gracefully see the big picture. This will support you in figuring out what you need to do in the short-term in efforts to reach those goals. Take it one step at a time, Virgo.

Libra

Sept. 23-Oct. 22

Having healthy boundaries is essential to your emotional, mental, and even physical health. There are many reasons why people don’t have them, not the least of which is when you assert a limit to others, they may not like it—or you. Allow others to reveal themselves to you this week, as you do the same. Be firm, clear, and kind. If taking care of your-self wreaks havoc in your relationships, maybe a little havoc is just what you need.

Scorpio

Oct. 23-Nov. 21

Have the confidence to honour your truth, Scorpio. Sometimes the most loving acts that you can perform are somewhat controversial. Sometimes people will cheer when you do things that are utterly unhealthy for you. The point is that you can’t let others define what’s right and wrong for you—only you can do that. Find the strength you need to make supportive decisions this week, even if others don’t or can’t understand them, my love.

Sagittarius

Nov. 22-Dec. 21

Change is constant. It’s not a sign of failure, it’s just an inevitable part of growing and changing. This week things are not moving at the rate, or maybe even in the direction, that you wish they were. This isn’t a sign that something is wrong—it’s only a sign that you’re not in control. Be interested in the changes instead of assuming the worst, Sagittarius. You need to pair boundaries with what you're passionate about, and your clarity of intent needs flexibility. You’ve got this.

Capricorn

Dec. 22-Jan. 19

Have confidence in your capacity and take responsibility for your choices this week. You’re overextended, Capricorn, and it’s pretty exhausting trying to keep up with everything that you’ve committed yourself to—but it’s also pretty exciting. Practice having gratitude for all of the things you’ve got going on, your capacity to handle them, and the potential that they may yield. If some things need to be adjusted or paused, that’s OK, too.

Aquarius

Jan. 20-Feb. 18

Nothing can replace the wisdom gained by turning within, Aquarius. You can do all the research and ask all the experts, but at a certain point you just need to be introspective and figure out what’s right for you. This week may find you encountering a truth that is uncomfortable or upends your applecart. Your job isn’t to keep things the same, it’s to keep them real. Make necessary adjustments, even if they shake things up and introduce some letdowns.

Pisces

Feb. 19-March 20

Perfectionism and FOMO are the ills to watch out for, my love. You don’t have to do all the things and you don’t need to be perfect. All you need is to show up and do your best in the situations you find yourself in. Don’t allow stress to colour your worldview so completely that you don’t see things clearly, Pisces. Give yourself permission to prioritize the most pressing of your concerns, and to focus on one thing at a time, this week.

Aries

March 21-April 19

It’s the end of a meaningful era in your thinking, Aries. You have figured something truly fundamental out, and no matter how subtle that thing seems, it has the potential to be a game changer. Instead of rushing to the next playing field, try sticking with wherever you’re at. If you allow your passions (both negative and positive) to run you, you’ll be stuck in a state of reactivity instead of intention. Find your light and bask in it for a while, my love.
