Mercury is direct. Huzzah!
ARIES
March 21-April 19
You need to get yourself organized so that you can feel in better control of what you’re going through, so think about the steps you need to take. Not forever and ever, of course, but over the next four weeks. Carefully laid plans will build the sturdiest results for you, my friend.
TAURUS
April 20-May 20
There’s no rush, Taurus. This is the time to collect information about what’s possible in your current situations, so you can weigh it out against your desires, and then against your willingness to participate. Allow things to percolate so that when you strike forward, it’s a confident and clearheaded move.
GEMINI
May 21-June 21
Sometimes you need to distract yourself, because, as luck would have it, when you get fixated on your worries you can be very single-minded, Twin Star. Get in touch with your emotional needs and stop tripping on whether or not you can meet them. Cultivate bravery in the face of your fears.
CANCER
June 22-July 22
Peacefulness is not a static state. To achieve it you’ve gotta make subtle adjustments as the world around (or within) you changes. You’re on call to find that elusive inner balance, and to stay unattached to it. The ground you’re standing on is kind of like a boat in choppy waters, so be ready to sway.
LEO
July 23-Aug. 22
The most effective way to be a powerful person that isn’t overpowering is to let others be themselves, Leo. You get to make your own choices, so please let others make theirs. Do what you feel is right for you, but not while you’re peddling what you think is right for others. Lead with your actions, not your words this week.
VIRGO
Aug. 23-Sept. 22
Think about transitions, Virgo. Don’t get so bogged down in the details of whatever you’ve got going on, but do investigate how you can gracefully traverse change. Consider your feelings as you make, because how you rise to the occasion is almost more important than what you do this week.
LIBRA
Sept. 23-Oct. 22
If you get entangled in other people’s crap you’ll end up having a hard time getting free, Libra. It doesn’t matter how strong you are, this is not the time to try to fix, save, or otherwise meddle in your loved ones’ affairs. You have no way of predicting where people are really going in their process, so give ’em some space and let things play out.
SCORPIO
Oct. 23-Nov. 21
You deserve a break, Scorpio, and you’re finally gonna get it! Enjoy your life this week as things are coming together for you, my friend. Your only job is to make sure you are checked-in with your heart and to honoring it. You are in a creative place; set the wheels in motion for great things to happen.
SAGITTARIUS
Nov. 22-Dec. 21
Clear the cobwebs from your mind so that you can get to work making sense of your feelings, and making choices that support them, Sag. You don’t have to have all the answers, or even to feel fabulous, but it would behoove you so greatly if you could clear the decks and reconnect with that inner voice that guides you.
CAPRICORN
Dec. 22-Jan. 19
Your old worries and insecurities are trying to have a comeback tour and it isn’t pretty. You’re at the end of a deep emotional cycle and the universe wants to know if you have really changed. Interact with old fears in new ways, Cap. It won’t be easy, but it’s easier than staying in an internal rut.
AQUARIUS
Jan. 20-Feb. 18
This is the time to battle the internal demons you’re struggling with. You need to be patient with yourself as you figure out where your top priorities lie, because you can’t deal with everything at once. Set some goals and even a timeline for how to take care of you, and I promise it’ll help ease your pains.
PISCES
Feb. 19-March 20
It might not seem this way, but so much of what you’re going through is about your perspective. You’ll feel better if you focus on what you’ve got instead of everything you don’t. When you feel better you’ll be able to identify what choices you need to make to have a more secure and happy life.
