Aries
March 21 – April 19
You have permission to start over. There may be people in your life that you only keep in your life because they’ve already been there for so long, but in reality, you might have grown apart. Has it become uncomfortable to try and stay connected? If so, it’s time for you to spread your wings and meet those who align with your renewed self and understand any changes you’ve undergone recently. Trust in who you are as you look for people who have similar goals.
Taurus
April 20 – May 20
Forgiveness is taking center stage in the cosmos. Whether you’re seeking clemency for something that you’ve done in the past, or you’re granting absolution to someone who wronged you, it’s important to let go of any grudges or past hurts for your sake. You have a unique ability to let bygones be bygones and give yourself and others the opportunity to leave their bad behavior behind them. Go forth — just do your best not to repeat the same mistakes in the future.
Gemini
May 21 – June 20
Impactful goals are worth some reevaluation. It might be that you’ve been pursuing a goal for so long that it no longer resonates with you, setting you adrift with the knowledge that you’ve put a lot of time and energy into this path but no longer want to walk down it. It might help to make a pros and cons list or brainstorm about potential different options. Whether you barely alter your original path or completely begin anew, it’s up to you!
Cancer
June 21 – July 22
You’re rising through the ranks. It might be that you’re receiving increased responsibilities in your career, or that you’re trying to juggle more activities in your routine — regardless, there’s ultimately more that you’re trying to achieve. This can be good, but make sure that you don’t overdo things while you’re feeling on top of the world and ready to conquer anything. Build in downtime so that your goals stay sustainable, even once you’re no longer feeling so energetic in later days.
Leo
July 23 – August 22
You’re at the trailhead of an unfamiliar path. Whether you’re taking an innovative class on a curious subject, traveling to somewhere you’ve never been before, or intrigued by a novel spiritual practice, you’re meant to be integrating the new and removing the old. This will make for an elevated version of the life that you were living before. The more that you focus on what you want to do, and the less that you get caught up in your fears, the better!
Virgo
August 23 – September 22
Freedom is paramount at this time. Perhaps you’re trapped by looming debts or tangled in age-old emotional thorns — no matter what’s going on, this is a good time to begin thinking about a life in the future, unfettered by such chains. If you don’t plan for it, you’ll never be able to make it happen! Contemplate any small goals that will prep you for this process. You could start by throwing out or donating clutter that’s literally been weighing down your home.
Libra
September 23 – October 22
Someone in your life might be withdrawing from you. This person may be moving away, spending more time with others, or simply growing apart from your connection. These things happen. Not everyone is meant to be in your life forever — many are only meant to be there for a season. It’s difficult to be the person who’s left behind, which could be the case in this matter, but it doesn’t mean that you’ve done anything wrong. It’s a fresh start for you, too!
Scorpio
October 23 – November 21
You have a chance to get reorganized. Keep your eyes open for a break in your busy schedule that allows you to restructure some routines in your life, especially if you’ve been dealing with chaos for some time. You might also have realized that a certain schedule simply isn’t functioning for you anymore, no matter how well it worked for your life in the past. You’re likely in a different place at this time, and your daily habits should be reflective of this!
Sagittarius
November 22 – December 21
The world is your oyster! Your sign is currently gifted with boundless opportunities to have fun, be creative, and spend time with loved ones, so take advantage of it! The only downside is that there are potentially people that you must leave behind while you chase your dreams. Remember — lucrative, entertaining openings like these don’t come around very often! You don’t have to put your life on hold for anyone. While they can still be important to you, they shouldn’t hold you back.
Capricorn
December 22 – January 19
Family and home are taking the spotlight. The New Moon allows you to strategize ways to make your home a cozier and more enjoyable place to be, on top of any alterations your family members or roommates make. They might be moving away, getting a job that changes their schedule, or opening up to you about something that you never knew about them before. Be open to any changes taking place, and allow room for yourself and the people in your life to evolve.
Aquarius
January 20 – February 18
Your support system might need a second look. It may be that someone who is meant to be supporting you isn’t doing so in a way that’s healthy for either of you. Accidentally or purposefully, this authority figure could be holding you back rather than lifting you up! They may be too controlling and try to boss you around, or they may enable negative habits that you ought to abandon. You have to be honest about your needs to get them fulfilled.
Pisces
February 19 – March 20
You’re generating security for yourself like never before. You may have previously played the wallflower or waited to be called on. The stars are cheering you on to speak up for yourself and express your opinions with conviction. The more that you’re able to feel secure in your thoughts and the contributions that you’re bringing to the world, the more confidence you’ll have to contribute. Ultimately, you can make things better and build a rapport with people around you. Be you, proudly!
