Horoscopes

ARIES (March 20 – April 19)

Welcome to your time! Energy, fun and activity are all at a high right now, as plants push their heads out of the ground. Make sure to make time for a little introspection. You have been gathering energy, one way or another, for this moment. Reflect and refine on your methods of doing so.

TAURUS (April 20 – May 20)

There is an area of your life where you have mastery. Generally, it’s hard to see these areas since they don’t present us with problems. Maybe this is a place where you receive a lot of validation, or maybe it’s something that’s hard for others to measure. Either way, this spring, give yourself credit for your excellence. 

GEMINI (May 21 – June 20) 

You’ve helped other people. Have faith right now that you can tend to your own wounds. Apply kindness and wisdom not just as pampering, but as medicine to places where you feel pain. Like nourishing your body with food, you can nourish your soul with generosity. Self-restoration is an everyday miracle.

CANCER (June 21 – July 21)

Cancers are stereotypically known to have the patience and attention of a baker, but this spring you will be able to use the speed and ingenuity of a cook. Relax standards, experiment with new options, and try new proportions of activity in your life. Give yourself permission to play where you have control.

LEO (July 22 – August 21)

Your energy goes through major changes in spring. Some people feel high energy, resist sleep, and walk into the sun with their eyes wide open. Some people feel lethargy like cats in sunbeams, an inclination to play, relax and snooze with the new ease of the day. Notice the changes, expected or unexpected as they might be, and heed them. What brings you consistency in this period? 

VIRGO (August 22 – September 21)

What’s the role of fantasy in your life? What’s the role of prayer? How much time do you devote to daydreaming? Does anything scare you about these practices? Are you worried about self-delusion? What happens when you lift hope out of reality? Playing tricks on your mind can lift you out of the mundane.

LIBRA (September 22 – October 22)

Restraint is elegant. Release is chaotic. Can you find elegance in chaos? The beauty of all the blossoms fallen from a tree — where does that exist in your life? Let go of at least one rule you make for yourself this coming month.

SCORPIO (October 23 – November 21)

With desire, sometimes withholding your own feelings increases how much you are desired. With love, you generally get what you give. For now, leave desire aside, and examine where you feel love, and put it out there. Your community, your family, or your partner — let them know.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 – December 21)

Wherever you are at in a crossroads, consider what it would mean to eventually arrive at all destinations. Play with time. What if what needs to happen tomorrow will only happen five years from now? What if your most distant dream came true today? Expect the unexpected, and trust you can maneuver. 

CAPRICORN (December 22 – January 19)

Capricorn is represented by a mythical creature: a stubborn goat on top, with the tail of a fish submerged in water. It’s important for you to find that lower, looser fish part right now. Let your shoulders relax, release your jaw, wiggle your behind. What magic trails behind you in dark water as you hold your head up straight in the air?

AQUARIUS (January 20 – February 18)

What if the source of your anger is not, in fact, a still kind of sadness but an earlier, elemental and righteous anger? Have you ever felt your history emotionally? Do the concerns of history live in your own body? There is a way to pay attention to your passion without destroying anyone.

PISCES (February 19 – March 19)

When do you use your creativity? Maybe you write songs, paint on pots, or decorate cakes.  Maybe you connect people who never considered meeting, find minutes in a busy day to relax, or stop some minor evil that others take for granted. Your powers of invention are at a high now. The first way to use them is taking time back from where it’s been allotted to others.
