ARIES
March 21-April 19
You’re not supposed to understand everything — so when seemingly unpleasant surprises crop up, try to not jump to the worst of conclusions, Aries. Look for the possibilities inherent in what is frustrating you, and rise to the occasion — even if you think you should be doing other things instead.
TAURUS
April 20-May 20
Your relationships are important to your sense of self, and deserve the care and effort that it takes to maintain them. Know what you need so that you can communicate it to your closest people this week. If you wait for others to intuit your feelings you will be disappointed with the results.
GEMINI
May 21-June 21
Sometimes you do your very best and the best comes back atcha. And then sometimes it doesn’t. Be as open to creative solutions to life’s trials as you can be, even if it seems that your current efforts are going unrewarded. Do the right thing because it’s right, not because of what you can get out of it.
CANCER
June 22-July 22
Don’t let paranoid thinking incite you to riot, moonchild. If you think things are amiss, deal honestly and directly with others about it. Engaging in power plays is never a good idea when Pluto is opposing your sign, as it is. Evasion, manipulation, and gossip will backfire with a vengeance this week.
LEO
July 23-Aug. 22
Endings are inevitable when you grow, Leo. The key is to make sure that you are letting go of the habits, people, or situations that inhibit your happiness and growth, instead of the ones that are trying to expedite it. Invest your energies towards creating the life you want, even if the going is rough.
VIRGO
Aug. 23-Sept. 22
Don’t worry so much about what will be, buddy. The chips will fall where they may, but the most important thing for you to focus on is the things you have control over. Cultivate an attitude of abundance this week, in spite of your fears. It is how you rise to the occasion that will define you.
LIBRA
Sept. 23-Oct. 22
The worst thing you could do is to try and fix things from the messy place you’re coming from. Stop overwhelming yourself with other people’s opinions and spend some down time figuring out what’s right for you. Until you feel clear it’s best not to make any major moves this week, Libra.
SCORPIO
Oct. 23-Nov. 21
You need to fake it till you make it, Scorpio. There is no reason to heed your fears, they’re just the rumblings of a mind all too aware of what might go wrong. Set your attention on what you are capable of doing in the here and now to improve your situation, pal. Use your energy for good this week!
SAGITTARIUS
Nov. 22-Dec. 21
Instead of trying to direct the course of things you need to take a step back and view them from a different vantage point. Being able to see things from different angles will allow you to figure out what you need next to maintain (or create) a happy life. Change your perspective and you change the game, Sag.
CAPRICORN
Dec. 22-Jan. 19
Creating change for change’s sake has its time and place, but it’s not this week. You run the risk of over-thinking things and then over-doing them for good measure, Cap. Cultivate calm in the presence of your anxieties and channel your restlessness somewhere productive so you leave well enough alone.
AQUARIUS
Jan. 20-Feb. 18
Expecting the worst is really just an exercise in putting your time and energy into your fears, Aquarius. Let things develop on their own and concentrate on managing your mental state this week. Gather your strength and calm yourself so that when the time comes for action, you’re ready for it.
PISCES
Feb. 19-March 20
Nothing can be done to stop the forces that are pressing down on you, and the best path to take is the one of least resistance for now. While you feel all junked up inside it’s next to impossible to make good decisions or get an accurate assessment of your situation. Reflect and relax instead of struggling against your feelings this week.
