As you let go of old patterns and habits—as well as beliefs that you’ve ultimately outgrown—you’re likely to feel grief.

Capricorn

Dec. 22-Jan. 19

It’s hard to know what to believe, think or feel when you’ve not spent enough time truly sitting with yourself. This week you may be feeling burnt out or somehow disconnected from your own best instincts. The last thing you should do is add more noise and tasks to your plate. Instead, strive to sit with yourself, be receptive to your instincts and allow for uncertainty to be a part of the equation, Capricorn.

Aquarius

Jan. 20-Feb. 18

If you can let go of trying to control your circumstances—and even understanding other people—you can get to the important work of accepting where you find yourself, what others are telling you about themselves and what that sets you up for in the year to come. You don’t need to know what the outcome is going to be in order to navigate the present. To stay on track, honour your values and be accountable for what you do and why you do it, Aquarius.

Pisces

Feb. 19-March 20

Talk it out, Pisces. It’s in your best interest to ask questions and really listen to the answers that people give you this week. It might feel really vulnerable to not be more proactive and try to move matters along, but creating space and allowing other people to fill it is a good practice. You may not learn what you want, but the truth—even when it’s a truth you don’t like—will empower you to navigate your options with the most clarity.

Aries

March 21-April 19

Stay interested, Aries! If you can keep an open and curious mind, you will learn a great deal about yourself and others this week. If you can stay adaptable in your thinking, you’ll be able to make use of what you’ve learned. You don’t need to know what to do or what comes next. Instead, simply strive to understand what is being communicated to you and what is true in the here and now.

Taurus

April 20-May 20

You can’t always have consensus but that doesn’t mean you have to have conflict. This week you’re likely to feel challenged by being in disagreement, either explicitly or implicitly, with someone close to you. The question to ask yourself is how you can navigate differences with others without getting defensive, watering down your perspective, and generally being in a fight. Differences are not an attack on your perspective; strive to learn from them, Taurus.

Gemini

May 21-June 21

As you let go of old patterns and habits—as well as beliefs that you’ve ultimately outgrown—you’re likely to feel grief. This can make you feel like you’ve gone sideways somehow, or that things are going in the wrong direction. But the truth is that you can grieve that which hurts you just as much as that which holds you up. Don’t confuse feeling sad or bad with things actually being wrong, twin star.

Cancer

June 22-July 22

Learning to navigate through anxiety is an essential life skill, but not a fun one to practice. This week what you do—and what you don’t do—really matters. If you slip into old patterns that you know better than to participate in, you will find yourself caught up in drama and power struggles. If you can challenge yourself to act in ways that reflect your wisest parts instead of your strongest emotions, you’ll be exactly where you are meant to be, moonchild.

Leo

July 23-Aug. 22

So much is changing all at once that it may feel hard to keep up. This week you are being challenged to know yourself well enough to identify the best places for you to invest your energy—and how to pace yourself during your efforts. If you move too fast, you will likely create more overwhelm than clarity. If you move too slowly, you may feel bulldozed by other people. Think of not just what you’re doing, but how you're navigating through it, Leo.

Virgo

Aug. 23-Sept. 22

Something is developing, that is certain, but everything else is not. This week is going to test your perfectionism as you are meant to do your best in an imperfect situation. This means that you’re likely to have to come back and readjust things later. You may be wasting time, or you may be operating off of less-than-ideal information. That’s life! Do the best with what you’ve got instead of wasting time and energy trying to make your situation more solid than it is, Virgo.

Libra

Sept. 23-Oct. 22

If you’re looking to assign blame as a way to understand how you got here, you are focused on the wrong things. This week you may be feeling guilty or resentful, and whether that’s directed at others or yourself, it’s keeping you stuck. Instead of focusing on what isn’t working or what you don’t have, do your best to look for what you do have—your resources—and identify the next steps necessary for you to take. This is one of those times when power struggles will only serve to keep you stuck in place, Libra.

Scorpio

Oct. 23-Nov. 21

It’s the very things that frustrate you and make you wanna throw in the towel that need your care and attention this week. If you haven’t been embodying your boundaries, you’re likely to be really feeling it; the antidote for this is to identify your needs and limits and then navigate your relationships and circumstances armed by that clarity. You can keep on running into the same old problems, or you can turn the page, Scorpio.

Sagittarius

Nov. 22-Dec. 21

Don’t let your ego get in the way this week. You may find your face feeling burnt out, defensive, or so turned around that you’re not quite sure what to think. Instead of allowing all that internal chaos to drive you, practice sitting with your emotions. Even if it’s uncomfortable, this is a good time to sit with the unknown and the uncomfortable so that you can find your truth and nurture it with clarity, Sagittarius.
