Aries
March 21-April 19
With Chiron sitting on top of the sun in your sign and opposite the full moon on the 12th in your solar relationship house, this is likely to be a pretty intense week for you. Do your best to avoid getting defensive, no matter how annoying other people are this week. The astrology of this moment is empowering you to release beliefs that you may consciously or unconsciously hold about yourself that ultimately get in the way of you feeling more joy and love in your relationships, Aries.
Taurus
April 20-May 20
You can make grand and sweeping changes, but if they aren’t followed up with smaller and more sustainable adjustments, you will find that there’s a lack of integration junking up the flow of operations in your life, Taurus. Don't allow strong emotions to inspire you to act out defensively this week. Make sure to reflect on not just what you want but what you can sustain—inspiration without follow-through isn’t movement. Be honest about what you can do, and then embrace actually doing it, Taurus.
Gemini
May 21-June 21
If you don’t have a creative outlet to help you process your emotions, the astrology of this week may be hitting you harder than it otherwise would. Creative outlets come in all shapes and sizes, and they serve the function of helping you to get out of your head and find nonlinear ways of sorting through your thoughts, feelings and inspirations. Strive to navigate self-care this week by exploring different ways of feeling your feelings. You don’t need answers, you need a healthy process, Twin Star.
Cancer
June 22-July 22
Your ruling planet is at it again, Moonchild—at least a little bit. Exploring your beliefs around self-worth and the coping mechanisms you’ve adopted in response is a big part of what you’re meant to be considering this week. If you confront these themes, you will be prepared to meet this moment with the right energy. This is a time for you to turn the corner and let go of beliefs and attitudes towards yourself that you know in your heart of hearts to be untrue.
Leo
July 23-Aug. 22
This week is a valuable time for you to consider the patterns that you have been playing out in your relationships. What role have you played? What have you gotten out of the things that do and don't work? This isn’t so that you can assign blame or feel bad; instead, it’s so that you can better understand what’s happening deep inside of you, Leo. Emotional self-awareness is the best-case scenario from the April 12th full moon in Libra, so do your best to explore your feelings, needs, and innermost world this week.
Virgo
Aug. 23-Sept. 22
It’s really hard to let go of control and accept your feelings when your head is screaming loudly at you. This week, there will be a full moon in Libra and it’s likely to activate your conscious and unconscious fears. Do your best to boldly confront the messiness of your feelings and allow yourself to explore how you may navigate the complexities of your situation. This isn’t the time for looking outside of yourself for answers—quiet the noise in your head and reconnect with your inner knowing, Virgo.
Libra
Sept. 23-Oct. 22
The full moon in your sign on April 12th is meant to kick up some really intense emotions. Take it as an opportunity to embrace your self-worth as a step towards letting go of outdated ways of feeling about yourself, Libra. You may find that your relationships are really activated this week, and it’s important that you don’t shy away from that. This is a powerful time to acknowledge what is and isn’t working so that you can identify what needs to change, if anything. Don’t allow your desire for stability to stop you from growing into greater authenticity.
Scorpio
Oct. 23-Nov. 21
The April 12th full moon is a powerful time for releasing what you know no longer serves you. This is, of course, much easier said than done, but there is so much energy coursing within you, motivating you to make empowered moves. The key is to do so without attachment to what happens as a result of your actions or inaction. You are capable, and the more deeply you believe this, the happier and healthier you will be. Take agency over the direction that you are pointing your life in this week. Own what you’re doing, how you’re doing it, and why, Scorpio.
Sagittarius
Nov. 22-Dec. 21
Things may not be quite where you wish they were and it may be taking a toll on you this week. This isn’t the best time to look outside of yourself for answers, as doing so will only further your feelings of disillusionment. The more willing you are to work with imperfections and your situations as they are, the better equipped you will be to navigate whatever comes up. Tap into and trust your intuition without losing contact with your obligations, values, and need to actively invest in the world around you.
Capricorn
Dec. 22-Jan. 19
The patterns and habits that you have around how you maintain your work-life balance may need to be revised this week. You’re likely to be dealing with some big feelings as the full moon in Libra is kicking up emotions all over the place. How you navigate your own feelings and needs in the context of your goals and obligations is a huge part of how you adult. Rise to the occasion by tapping into your sense of agency around how you choose to live and why. If you can’t do that, it may be time to make some pretty big changes, Capricorn.
Aquarius
Jan. 20-Feb. 18
The Libra full moon on the 12th has got you really in your feelings, and if you’re not careful, that may inspire you to ruminate and obsess on things outside of your control. Feeling your feelings is a really good thing, but overthinking actually keeps your emotions at bay and unprocessed. Be brave enough to feel sad or bad without telling yourself a story about what it means or even how it came to be. As counterintuitive as this may feel, it’s foundational to being able to find and maintain equilibrium this week.
Pisces
Feb. 19-March 20
With a full moon as activating as the one we’re going to feel on the 12th, people are likely to be acting oddly. Instead of taking other people's energies personally, strive to stay grounded and centred, Pisces. This doesn’t mean you won’t have feelings about the way other people behave, but it does mean that if you know that people are feeling destabilized and are likely to be acting out, then it’s not because of you—and you don’t need to take it in or on. Strive to take a grounded and big-picture approach to interpersonal dynamics this week.
