Gemini
May 21-June 21
On the 10th there will be a solar eclipse in your sign and it’s an opportunity to cultivate a vision for your life that brings you to new heights. Dare to dream big, but not so big that you lose sight of reality. You may be struggling to determine the lines between pessimism and realism, idealism and optimism. Be an explorer, twin star! Don’t fixate on getting proof right now—fixate only on possibilities and potential. Once the intensity of emotions kicked up by this new moon pass, you can make a plan.

Cancer
June 22-July 22
Whatever patterns are running through your life at this time have roots in your past, Moonchild. That doesn’t necessarily mean that the specific situation has roots in your past, but that the role you’ve played does. Don’t get so caught up in trying to defend or protect yourself that you miss out on an opportunity to grow. Prioritize having and holding healthy boundaries this week. Cultivating healthy boundaries is not about ideas or words on their own. This is the time to walk your talk and embody the wisdom you’ve cultivated, my love.

Leo
July 23-Aug. 22
If you find yourself feeling defensive, know that this is only a symptom of emotions and ideas that you don’t feel at peace with yourself. In order to be freed of fear, you must be willing to sit in your vulnerability without acting out. It’s hard work! But this week’s solar eclipse is egging you on to greater emotional embodiment and self-acceptance. The path may be a bit scary, but you can take it at your own pace. Just keep showing up, Leo.

Virgo
Aug. 23-Sept. 22
You spend too much time idealizing or fantasizing, Virgo. This week some aspect of reality is likely to catch up with you, and it’s also likely to be pretty uncomfortable. Your situation will not define you one way or another; it is how you respond to your situation that really matters at the end of the day. Don’t get lost in the weeds. Adopt a big picture view of your situation and the options you have for coping with it. Not only will this be effective, but then if you falter at any stage, you can treat it as a learning curve instead of a defining upset.

Libra
Sept. 23-Oct. 22
It’s not easy clarifying your boundaries and expressing them in a way that feels good to yourself and others. This week is likely to find you struggling with avoidant impulses while you struggle to figure out how to say what needs to be said. You don’t need to be perfect; you only need to be honest. You can’t prioritize protecting others’ feelings and being honest at the same time. That said, empathy and compassion need to be part of your communication style. It’s a practice worth embracing.

Scorpio
Sept. 23-Oct. 22
If you can continue to show up for your relationships openly and honestly, without trying to direct others or control what you truly feel, you’ll find that you are co-creating something that is true. The key is to not become fixated on some goal that inclines you to try to manipulate others or contort yourself. When in doubt, slow down and ask yourself what you’re feeling, this week, and instead of figuring out why, strive to nurture yourself or your situation.

Sagittarius
Nov. 22-Dec. 21
This week you may be tempted to focus on what’s happening for others. If you do so from a purely self-interested perspective, it’ll backfire on you. The potential for things to truly come together for you in your relationships is meaningful. Don’t allow yourself to be provoked or to act out of defensiveness, Sagittarius. Put into place your healthiest reflections of self-care, boundaries, and who you are and the results will ripple through your life for a long time to come.

Capricorn
Dec. 22-Jan. 19
If you find your anxiety levels are heightened this week a good place to start is with your ego. Strive to understand the role that pride is playing in your hopes and fears, Capricorn. If you allow your strongest emotions to run you, you may end up focusing on and prioritizing the wrong things. Be interested in your anxieties instead of reactive to them. If you can tolerate some vulnerability, you can make meaningful progress in your capacity to show up for what matters most.

Aquarius
Jan. 20-Feb. 18
While you’re often excellent at spontaneously changing and influencing others to do the same, this isn’t the greatest time for that, Aquarius. You are likely to be heavily influenced by anxieties this week and that will influence your perceptions and compromise your objectivity. Allow room to be uncomfortable and stay present with your anxieties instead of pouncing on them by trying to make sense of them. This week your best move is stillness. The only time you need to tend to is right now.

Pisces
Feb. 19-March 20
If you find yourself struggling with exhaustion or a scarcity mindset, you’re not alone Pisces. The work in front of you is to identify and cultivate boundaries that are not solely responsive to what you fear but also reflective of what you hope for. This week’s eclipse is kicking up a roller coaster of emotions and it’s wise for you to create some space to be in that, without having to involve others in your process. If you need space, communicate that need and then do what you’ve got to do my love.

Aries
March 21-April 19
Paradoxically, letting go of control will give you more control, Aries. It’s important that you are willing to learn something about yourself and the world around you. That may be all well and good, but your instincts may be pointing you towards assigning blame to yourself or others as a way to explain away your uncomfortable feelings. You can’t take full responsibility for your life and the role you play in your relationships when you are unwilling to be emotionally present. Sit with your feelings without immediately acting on them this week.

Taurus
April 20-May 20
This week you’re likely to find yourself confronted with and alsos. You may need some space and also not want to feel lonely. You may have told your bestie the truth and also not really know what is true. If you can, let go of your attachment to certainty and security in favor of being present to what is true for you at this very moment. You may not be able to control things from this place, but you can rise to the occasion by learning something about your own emotional nature.
