Capricorn
December 22 - January 19
Over the past few weeks, your confidence has been waning; however, you're feeling better about yourself and are now ready to take on the world. Some may say that you have gotten your game back, but you've always had it; it's just that you've been dealing with other people and not putting yourself first, which you should always do. As the upcoming days unfold, you will be full of delight and excitement, seeing that everything you’ve wanted to attain is coming to fruition and reality.
Aquarius
January 20 - February 18
A clandestine crush, who you are just beginning to know, is the center of your universe this week. You’re texting and DMing them whenever you get a chance, while trying to keep the relationship close to your chest. The caveat is that you want to tell your friends and family, but aren't ready to yet, because you have no clue where it’s heading. The person you have feelings for might not even be aware until you spell it out for them, which explains the secrecy.
Pisces
February 19 - March 20
You might be feeling somewhat blue this week, since you’re a sensitive being who takes on the sentiments of the world. Luckily, your friends are offering comfort to help you through this tough time. They'll stop by your house with food and gifts that lift your spirits. They might offer to sit by your side and watch your favorite movies. They'll prove to be your ride-or-dies, who will hold your hand and provide stellar advice throughout this emotional journey. In return, they will ask for nothing.
Aries
March 21 - April 19
You have a lot of strong opinions about various subjects, but not much information to support them. You’re basing the discussion around second-hand gossip, which isn’t necessarily truthful. Taking a definitive stance on something that lacks clarity is likely to cause problems for you down the road, as it may alienate people who are knowledgeable and trying to inform you of the facts that you are choosing to ignore. Try to have an open mind and carefully assess matters to avoid these issues and situations.
Taurus
April 20 - May 20
You're noticing that the way you treat family and friends is evolving. You've been taking those you care about for granted by not giving them the admiration and appreciation they deserve. Therefore, this week serves as a wake-up call for your relationships. Call them to express your gratitude. They'll feel the same and be touched by your thoughtfulness. All of this can draw you closer, but you have to make the first move to let them see that you genuinely care.
Gemini
May 21 - June 20
A spark with another could help you get out of your current situationship and into another, even though you're not eager to jump into something new. You may feel a push towards them because they offer you radical insights and give you something to think about. Your mercurial mind will feel as though it's peeing challenged, which is one of your biggest turn-ons. Regardless of timing, the heart wants what it wants and doesn’t pre-schedule emotions. As you know, love is not predictable.
Cancer
June 21 - July 22
You’re on high alert because your partner is acting off-kilter. Their actions aren’t matching their words and promises. As a result, you are wondering if they’re tempted to hookup with someone else. Before jumping to conclusions and assumptions—or looking through their social media following and posts—have a discussion to suss out the vibe. If it still feels off, then you should re-evaluate the dynamic and decide if it’s worth investing more of your time into. Think about what’s best for you.
Leo
July 23 - August 22
Believe it or not, the mundane is inspiring you. This week is making you more peppy and full of energy, urging you to take on all of your errands and appointments with gusto. The only caveat is that you might need extra downtime, so make sure you allot yourself a generous amount of napping or rest during the off hours. Catch up on your favorite shows when you are longing to escape and let your mind decompress by focusing on trivial matters that aren’t that important.
Virgo
August 23 - September 22
The creativity in your sphere is amazing, so much so that it’s motivating you to take a class to pursue a hobby. Being in the midst of like-minded individuals, who share similar talents, is helping you explore this side of yourself. Before you know it, they’ll become part of your inner circle and you’ll want to get coffee with them to discuss other facets of your lives. You never can tell who’ll be a transformative part of your future unless you put yourself out there.
Libra
September 23 - October 22
You’re trying to woo a special person with the same tricks you’ve used before. While the game might have worked in the past, it won’t now. Taking a date to the same restaurant and movie theatre is the romantic routine you should get out of. If you’re unsure of where to go, dare to be different, let them do the suggesting and planning. All that counts is the experience you share, which is why it’s vital to get out of a rut and into newness.
Scorpio
October 23 - November 21
Every day, some people make a conscious decision to hurt others, whether they like inflicting damage or not. That doesn't mean you have to get on the bandwagon. This week, the universe urges you to embrace your kinder and gentler sentiments, rather than raging against others whom you want to help and serve. It's in your best interest to offer them TLC, since they've always been there for you. Now you can finally recuperate when you require it the most — even if it is by doing something minimal.
Sagittarius
November 22 - December 21
With the spring semester commencing, you are elevating your ideology and are not afraid to speak your mind. Your political beliefs are becoming more defined as you become more proactive in sharing them. Your commitment to the causes you believe in will be noticed by others, inspiring them to do the same. There are numerous issues in the world, which means you need to inspire others, including yourself, to use your voices for change. United and together, you'll be unstoppable and a difference is made.
