4 Zodiacs Who Need A Pep Talk This Weekend (September 1 – 3)

We like to think that we can handle everything that life throws at us, all by ourselves. That we can be brave and strong 24/7. The truth is, while some people can handle a bigger burden than others, no one can weather the storm completely alone. Sometimes all you need is some encouraging words to get you through a tough time. The following four zodiac signs could use a serious pep talk this weekend, and this is where youโ€™ll find it.

Cancer

Itโ€™s okay to be emotional. Youโ€™re well aware that youโ€™re usually the most emotional and empathetic person in the room, and you tell yourself itโ€™s a superpower, but thatโ€™s tough to believe sometimes. People will tell you how annoying or overwhelming your emotions are. That you should just โ€œsuck it upโ€ and โ€œget over it.โ€ First of all, those arenโ€™t the kinds of people you should keep around. And more importantly, your emotions and empathy are what make you you. If you were to take them away, who would you be then? Not someone any of us would recognize. So feel all your feelings this weekend. Cry, laugh, grieve. Do what your heart tells you. Let it all out and be you.

Leo

You like things to stay the same. You get comfortable with the life youโ€™re leading, even when it doesnโ€™t suit you, so the idea of changing anything gives you anxiety. While it would be nice if your life was all sunshine and roses right now, there are things that arenโ€™t serving you. While change might be scary, you canโ€™t keep living with these glimmers of unhappiness. Something has to give. This weekend, take even one small step toward a life change. While you wonโ€™t know the outcome with 100% certainty, you can at least feel confident knowing that youโ€™re doing something to change the things in your life that arenโ€™t working.

Libra

What good does second-guessing yourself really accomplish? Youโ€™ll analyze and over-analyze and super ultra over-analyze every text message to that certain someone, hoping that youโ€™ll find the perfect combination of words and emojis to get your point across without being โ€œtoo much.โ€ All this anxiety is exhausting. Worst of all, thereโ€™s a very good chance that the person on the other end of these texts isnโ€™t putting anywhere near as much thought into it as you are. This weekend, let yourself relax. Send the text or donโ€™t but spend no more time than it takes to type out a quick reply. Youโ€™re way cooler and more amazing than your text anxiety gives you credit for. Itโ€™ll be okay.

Capricorn

Youโ€™re an amazing hard worker, but you donโ€™t need me to tell you that. You hinge so much of your worth on how hard you work that itโ€™s an ever-present thought in your mind. You show off your spreadsheets or your to-do lists with every item crossed off and you think, โ€œThis is me!โ€ Iโ€™m here to tell you that this is not all that you are. If you take away all the workaholism, the planning and executing, you wonโ€™t be left an empty shell. Rather, youโ€™ll see what the rest of us have already known about you. Youโ€™re a caring friend, a funny conversationalist, and a warm presence. This weekend, take a break and show off all the other qualities that make you uniquely you.
