Gemini
May 21-June 21
There are only so many times that you can circle around an idea and still see it clearly, Twin Star. This week you may find yourself obsessing on things in a way that actually obscures innovation instead of promotes it. Don’t forget the reason why you’re looking for answers. If your goal is to be happy, to be clear, or even to be fair-minded, then I suggest that you step away from your obsessions and take a breather, my love. Allow the space for things to come together.

Cancer
June 22-July 22
You don’t need to assign blame or to find justifications in order to validate your feelings, Moonchild. You are entitled to your inner experience, and in fact, it’s your job to care for yourself around it. This week it’s wise to be so good at caring for yourself that you avoid getting into it with people until you’re totally ready. Asserting boundaries is an act of kindness to yourself and others. Don’t let fear direct your actions and reactions, my love.

Leo
July 23-Aug. 22
If you’re not paying proper attention to others, you run the risk of thinking that it’s a sunny, warm day out there, when in fact it’s a damn storm. Your enthusiasm and resiliency are a gift, but when you allow them to compel you to craft stories about someone else’s experience, you end up creating more drama than you expect—and what’s worse, is it feels like it’s coming out of nowhere. Hold space for difference and listen to other people with all of your senses, Leo.

Virgo
Aug. 23-Sept. 22
True power is collaborative. If you're consumed by your will, and trying to force it on people and situations, you’re not going to love what comes next. This week it’s all about finding balance from wherever you’re at—even if that means that the middle point is still pretty far from what you ideally want. This is one of those times where good for now is a building block towards truly, happily, good for you. Have patience and let the little things go, Virgo.

Libra
Sept. 23-Oct. 22
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: the truth is true, whether you want to look at it or not. Instead of recoiling from scary or unpleasant realities, confront them head on. You are likely to get new data, but not know exactly what it means—or what to do with it yet. Sit in the discomfort and uncertainty of that, without weaving stories and stoking the flames of fear this week. Let matters develop in their own time, no matter how awkward it feels, Libra.

Scorpio
Oct. 23-Nov. 21
If what makes you feel better in the short term comes at your long-term expense, you’re going to have a rough week, Scorpio. It’s important that you consider your big-picture needs, which inevitably includes how the people around you are responding to your behaviour. Get present, get real—and make some sustainable compromises. You’re don’t have to rush yourself in order to get there in time—take small steps that make sense this week.

Sagittarius
Nov. 22-Dec. 21
Anger and frustration are a normal part of life, no matter how annoying they are. You may find yourself tempted to focus on the bright side, or keep your vibes positive in the face of upsets this week. I won’t tell you that it’s a wrong move, but I will say that if the only way to do that is by ignoring reality, you’ll end up in more trouble than you evade, Sagittarius. Spend some time bringing your wisdom and resiliency to the messiest parts of your life, my love.

Capricorn
Dec. 22-Jan. 19
Sticking to the plan is fantastic, but when things change, it’s even better if you change with them. Strive to have your strategies be responsive and flexible, because things are changing quickly, and potentially in unexpected directions. You don’t have to get it right—you only have to be in it for the right reasons, Capricorn. Refine the integrity of your intentions this week, and then, whether you like what happens or not, you really can’t lose.

Aquarius
Jan. 20-Feb. 18
The role that fear plays in your assumptions may be bigger than you think. This week you will have the opportunity to deepen your understanding on this topic and refine your tools in efforts to better cope. Or of course you can just indulge your most-base instincts and defend yourself with rigid ideas about others and the world at large. It may not feel like you have a choice, but you do, Aquarius. Don’t take your most uncomfortable feelings at face value this week.

Pisces
Feb. 19-March 20
There’s a lot going on this week and a good place to start is with you. Be mindful of your boundaries, Pisces. If you take on other people’s feelings or dramas, they will easily become your problems, too. The best, most effective boundaries are firm and flexible, and that’s not easy, even if it’s simple. Start by finding your truth, in this moment, and honour that. Now is an excellent time to practice being present without abandoning lessons from the past, or your intentions for the future.

Aries
March 21-April 19
No matter how hard you try, this is a poorly starred time for pushing your will onto others, Aries. Your situations, and certainly your relationships, need some time to breathe. You don’t need to worry that giving space to upsets will make them worse—they won’t. What’s most likely to happen is that you’ll feel uncomfortable in your uncertainty, and that on the other side of those unsure feelings is a greater clarity, and less drama. Go for the long-game option this week.

Taurus
April 20-May 20
When you don’t know what’s next is when it’s easiest to jump to conclusions. Your fears and worst-case scenarios are likely to be on high alert this week, and it’s essential that you find ways of managing your feelings before you go and make your situation worse. It’s hard to pick your battles wisely when you’re consumed with emotion. It may be useful for you to take some real alone time to sort through your mountain of feelings to come to your truth, Taurus.
