Taurus

April 20 - May 20

You're wondering whether or not you can actually have it all. It’s a laborious climb to the top, but once you get there, you'll be able to cultivate balance in your life. The focus should be on how you can start achieving your goals. The journey ahead requires a lot of effort, so start manifesting and charging forward. With the right amount of motivation from yourself and encouragement from friends, success is going to taste so sweet.

May 21 - June 20

Lately, it seems as though everyone from your peers to Olivia Rodrigo is cheekily coming for you, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t love underneath the zodiac slander. Do not let the teasing get you down; everyone is always going to have a dig now and again. Know that you’re rubber and they’re glue—whatever they say bounces off you and sticks to them. It’s a projection of themselves, so avoid taking it personally. You’re stronger and smarter than that, Gemini.

Cancer

June 21 - July 22

When you get into a crabby mood, there is no room for chill. Annoyances will arise throughout the week, so take a moment to calm your emotions before expressing them impulsively, to avoid saying things you can't take back and sparking bigger arguments. Will you be able to make up with them? Yes! They understand the stress you're under; however, it doesn't make for a good dynamic if you are unable to control your temper. The connection could even deepen; every rose has its thorns.

July 23 - August 22

A past situationship is returning to your orb. It may be that you're thinking of the person, or they are lurking on your social media account for clues about what you're up to. Regardless of what manifests, the objective is to realize how over them you actually are in the romantic sense. This might result in a friendship down the road when you're ready, but for now, it's going to be healing and rejuvenating for your ego knowing they’re begging you for attention and forgiveness.

August 23 - September 22

If you've been feeling as though things are up in the air, you will receive a small dose of clarity. However, you won't understand the full scope until the end of Pluto's retrograde cycle in October, but you'll gain information here and there that offers insight to put your Mercurial mind at ease—at least for the time being. All you need is a little understanding, then you can do the math yourself to solve problems and resolve issues. Inspector Virgo is on the case!

September 23 - October 22

Searching for someone who’s “perfect” is as useless as trying to fit a square peg in a circular hole. The lesson here is to revamp what you're looking for in relationships rather than set high expectations that no one will meet. The person you connect with the most is someone who doesn't fit in with the type you've dated or crushed on before, which is a good thing. Fall head over heels with their spirit, humor, intellect—more importantly, how they make you feel.

Scorpio

October 23 - November 21

You are being called to the astral plane while you're sleeping, rewatching childhood shows, or listening to old tunes because the universe is giving you a chance to revisit memories and have a second look. Of course, there is a catch! You might discover significant aspects you forgot or misinterpreted, leading to a different connection with the past (particularly with your family). By reminiscing and uncovering buried sentiments, you’ll begin the healing process that leads to forgiveness for yourself and others. Let the journey begin!

Sagittarius

November 22 - December 21

More often than not, you find yourself biting your tongue when expressing random thoughts, telling jokes, and making commentary that should be kept and left internally on impulse. This may be a week when you do so many times, leading to disagreements or hurt sentiments among others. Once the fight gets started, it's sometimes hard for you to admit you're wrong, leading to salty resentment. Do the opposite this time around, apologize first to resolve the drama. Be the bigger person to shift the vibe.

Capricorn

December 22 - January 19

Although you're far from going broke, you are reevaluating your finances. Taking a hard look at your bank account will encourage you to start saving your pennies for the rainy days ahead. May flowers are blooming, and you are feeling whimsical, but it's not the time to make big purchases. Save your money for a summer trip with friends who will require you to pay in full before the vacation, which is what you should be paying (literally and figuratively) attention to throughout the week.

Aquarius

January 20 - February 18

You know what makes people tick underneath the surface level, which is why you're able to make suggestions that alter their perspective and get your way. The caveat is that you're feeling a lot of guilt in these mind games this week, propelling you to stop in your tracks, but you are unable to. This is a lesson in self-control and an opportunity to be the better version of yourself. Attaining a higher purpose with your magic is important, so don't use it to manipulate.

Pisces

February 19 - March 20

You don't want to be front and center, but you also don't want to be left on the sidelines. Perhaps being the power behind the scenes is a role that will quench your thirst for politics among friends, family, and school matters. this means that you'll be advising others on how to handle relationships and circumstances. Navigating the gossip is going to give you insight into what's going on, so be careful not to accidentally spill it to those who don't need to know.

Aries

March 21 - April 19

Working on the school project with a few members of your crew will help you see who is taking your kindness for granted. Some may decide to let you take the lead and dip out of the endeavor before you even begin. This will irritate you since you are putting in all the effort and doing the heavy lifting to procure a top grade. Before your frustration gets to an intense point, have a discussion with them about their roles to ensure they don’t flake.
