4 Zodiacs Torn Between Fantasy And Reality At The End Of May

LEO

You know better than anyone, Leo, that sometimes it’s necessary to borrow confidence from our future selves, a version of us that is yet to exist, but is entirely in our power to create. In many ways, it’s part time travel, part navigating alternate realities. The ability to see all the possible “yous” than can and will exist, and ask them if you can take out a loan from them that will make both your dreams come true. The things you are chasing in life require that level of forethought and imagination. You have to hear the cheers of a packed stadium in your mind before you walk out onto your first open mic stage. You have to imagine thousands of people reading your book before you type the first sentence. This kind of fantasy is productive, don’t let the very real doubt that exists in your reality hold you back.

CANCER

You have the most generous heart, Cancer, and always give everyone the benefit of the doubt. You are astute enough to recognize the accountability and autonomy we all possess, but you cling to the tiniest shreds of hope that people will change their minds, or improve their behavior when they don’t treat you the way you deserve. You see the potential and very possible version of them that does the work and self-reflection necessary to make meaningful change. But if someone is telling you they’re not interested in doing that, if they, in turn, are clinging to the status quo, their comfortable norms and existing patterns of behavior, you have to learn to let that fantasy go in order to do right by your reality. It’s hard, because you’re right for knowing the possibility does exist, but that decision is just out of your hands.

PISCES

Your biggest gripe with life, Pisces, is that reality can be such a snooze. Your active mind can’t handle idleness or under stimulation, it slips you immediately into boredom. So you flip the switch, and turn on that magnificent movie reel in your head with Oscar-worthy monologues of your own making. You can write a script for life that is a million times better than whatever shallow, vapid small-talk that you’re constantly tuning out. But your one shortcoming is not owning the role you play in your own circumstances. No one is forcing you to be where are, or live the way you’re living. You always have the option to seek out the people, places, and lifestyles that are more aligned with your dreams. You can transform your reality into the very things you fantasize about, if you are simply brave enough to try.

GEMINI

Expectations have always weighed heavily on you, Gemini, whether they’re your own or anyone else’s. And it’s this dichotomy that pulls you back and forth between fantasy and reality constantly. The fantasy you can finish every project, hit every deadline, take care of every favor that’s asked of you, and still wake up feeling refreshed and ready to conquer the day. But in reality you are white-knuckling your way through fifteen hour days where you can never cross anything off of your list before two more things get added to it. There isn’t enough caffeine or meditation that can get your zen or energy back, and you know, deep down, that you could implode at any minute. You have to make plans with your feet firmly grounded in reality before you can start figuring out what your true dreams really are.
