Cancer

June 22-July 22

The best thing you can do is reflect. If you come at things too literally or analyze them too intellectually, you’ll find yourself feeling overwhelmed and distracted from what matters most. Tap into what you feel, what needs care and what needs spaciousness. Your answers will be found through patient contemplation and exploration of your instincts, emotions and intuition this week, Moonchild.

Leo

July 23-Aug. 22

This week, you’re likely to feel restless and like you want to push against restrictions and limitations—but you just can’t. The best thing you can do is explore what’s happening inside of you before you act out and react to your feelings. It’s important to remember that your strongest feelings are not reliably your wisest ones. For best results, address your triggers with openness and honesty, Leo.

Virgo

Aug. 23-Sept. 22

If you’re trying to figure out how to prove yourself, what to say to explain yourself or are in a defensive frame of mind, you’re running the risk of losing the thread, Virgo. You don’t need to distort the truth in order to tell it. Focus your attention and energy on clarifying what is absolutely true for you. From that state of clarity, you can communicate with confidence.

Libra

Sept. 23-Oct. 22

We all know that freedom doesn’t mean freedom from consequences—it means that you are free to act in whatever ways you like, including ways that incur any number of consequences. This week, it would be wise to slow down and check in with yourself about how you’re doing, what you’re doing and why. While you absolutely need to assert your boundaries with others, it’s important that you start by having healthy boundaries with yourself.

Scorpio

Oct. 23-Nov. 21

If you’ve taken on too much or are just feeling burnt out, the best thing you can do this week is create some space to unravel. There’s nothing wrong with turning your phone off and crawling into bed when you need to; in fact, it’s really hard to be on and engaged all the time. Find ways of tending to your needs so that you can have energy left over for the people and things that you care most about. Sometimes you’ve got to ebb in order to maintain your flow, Scorpio.

Sagittarius

Nov. 22-Dec. 21

Things are changing in a meaningful way, and how you show up for it, what you prioritize and the energy that you bring to the things you do are all deeply consequential right now. You don’t have to have all the answers or to have things figured out—what you need is to stay aligned with what’s true for you, moment by moment. The best way to have a life that feels meaningful is by choosing to honour the things you value, Sagittarius.

Capricorn

Dec. 22-Jan. 19

Can you assert yourself without behaving in ways that are egotistical? This week will test your ability to engage with your ego in a way that isn’t defensive or too self-centred. It’s important that you assert yourself, but not defensively. If you find yourself in that state of mind, you’re also likely to be motivated by insecurity and guilt. Let go of your drive to prove yourself and focus on what’s truly important, Capricorn.

Aquarius

Jan. 20-Feb. 18

This week, it’s wise for you to slow down and get grounded so that you can reflect on your patterns. There are themes running through your life that are out of your control, and many that are the direct result of your own choices, beliefs and behaviours. The more self-aware you are about what these are and how they are or are not serving you, the better able you will be to make good decisions and progress in the direction that you truly wish to, Aquarius.

Pisces

Feb. 19-March 20

Sometimes it’s really important to figure out who started things and who’s right and who’s wrong; other times, it’s important to simply accept where you’re at and what you have done (or not!) to get here. This week, you would be wise to simply accept where things are at so that you can go about the work of working with what you’ve got. You don’t need to force anything; just stay open, Pisces.

Aries

March 21-April 19

For a fire sign like you, moving slowly can feel uncomfortable as it forces you to sit with your vulnerabilities and insecurities—and that’s just hard. This week, your assignment is to not abandon any part of yourself in your effort to be free of uncomfortable feelings or limiting circumstances. More than anything, this will require you to be willing to stay present with challenging emotions and to nurture them, and yourself. (Even when you are tempted to put the pedal to the metal, Aries!)

Taurus

April 20-May 20

Yours is a zodiac sign that is always concerned with security. This week, you’re in a good position to create some stability in your life, but if you get too attached to it you will likely find that it creates more anxiety than it resolves. Having steady internal ground requires a balancing act, so do your best to resist the urge to dig in your heels and wait for your situation to bend to your desires. In other words: be flexible, Taurus.

Gemini

May 21-June 21

It’s time to let go, Twin Star. Things in your life may have taken a sharp turn recently and this is testing your ability to adapt without burning it all to the ground. This requires you to let go of control—while at the same time continuing to take responsibility for how you are or aren’t showing up. Don’t wait for the things that you care about to be bad before you take steps to protect them. Release your attachment to how you think things should be, and show up for how they are.
