ARIES (Mar 20 — Apr 19)
Notice how easily your responses come to you: love, affinity, hatred. Give yourself two breaths around each sensation. It could be different, but your responses are what they are. Trust your intuition while you observe it.
TAURUS (Apr 20 — May 20)
We all like certainty in the form of security, but most of our certainties are founded on a combination of scheming and luck. What are the faster routes, the craftier routes? Is it possible to cultivate luck? Can you take two steps and travel the same distance as 10
GEMINI (May 21 — June 20)
Over the course of the next month, make a list of 10 truths, 10 beliefs that you could never change. You will be tempted, when you read them back, to look for loopholes and errors — that is human nature. Instead, investigate their truth more deeply. Even if one truth fails, having faith in the others can still ground you.
CANCER (Jun 21 — Jul 21)
Your attention is your great gift and it comes easily to you, supporting and uplifting all you do. Attention is still often anxiety, a worry that if you overlook, everything will collapse. Is there a way you can cultivate your gift with less fear? Can you see without looking for failure? Collapse is here, and grief too. And there is the rest of it, the glory you cultivate.
LEO (Jul 22 — Aug 21)
There is no shame in anger, only in wounding people. In fact, anger processed as shame will slow you down worse than a February wind. You must find a decipherable howl. You must let yourself be seen and heard. You must be understood in your scariest moods as well as your sweetest.
VIRGO (Aug 22 — Sep 21)
We are and are not only our bodies, these vulnerable spaces where our spirits live. Here’s a thought experiment: when your body is not you, what is it up to? Is it more like a wild animal you domesticate, a baby you raise or a lover you nourish? How can you live together with more respect and love?
LIBRA (Sep 22 — Oct 22)
When you act against your own desires and wishes, it is likely you believe you’re protecting or supporting someone else. Your task is to discover if your self-sacrifice is in fact in any way helpful to that someone else. Positive action, rather than suppression, is the best way to be there for others and to love yourself well, too.
SCORPIO (Oct 23 — Nov 21)
Don’t wait for summer to live in the material world. Find yourself in the crunch, the steam, the dripping and cracking of frozen water all around us. Attend to the salt stain, the dry lip, the relief of the warm bath and the crowded room. All isn’t rest and darkness. Things still move in the silent hours.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 — Dec 21)
Pick a secret only you know, and imagine everyone knew it. It has to be a real risk, the secret you’ve kept on purpose. How would you survive if this secret was out? How long would it take to recover? Could you live this way right away, without ever revealing your secret, or perhaps not? Shame does something for us. Try to find out what it does for you.
CAPRICORN (Dec 22 — Jan 19)
Are you willing to experience something strange? Do you notice inexplicable heroism as often as inexplicable monstrosity? Is there a safe place where you can abandon rationality? Can you do it in your head? Chaos, by nature, can offer shining insight as often as sheer horror. You will have to find ways to be with the horror, though.
AQUARIUS (Jan 20 — Feb 18)
Aquarius is known for being the sign of the freak, the future, the revolutionary. It is also the sign of the friend. Friends tend to be our relationships that are most about choice. Can you bring the playful, loving intention of a good friendship to other areas of your life? What if nothing had to be, and every obligation was a gift?
PISCES (Feb 19 — Mar 19)
You are both specially profoundly yourself and one in eight billion. The tension between those two truths is one that Pisces can often lose, but it is where we best relate to others. To follow your creative dreams and tend to the world at large, you are going to have to give and receive in a humble, easy way.
