4 Zodiacs Who Need To Become The Hero Of Their Own Stories In April

SCORPIO

You place so much stock in romance, Scorpio, because you still harbor so much childlike innocence deep inside your heart, but part of growing up is realizing that even a perfect partner can’t solve all of life’s problems for us. We still have to get up every morning and fight like hell just to do our best. We’re all out here just trying to figure it out day by day, without a map or a rulebook or any definitive assembly instructions. It’s pure trial and error, but that doesn’t mean it’s not worth doing. You can face this alone and still leave the door open for the right person to enter stage left and cheer you on while you do it. You are enough. You don’t have to wait for someone to come rescue you or give you permission for the life you want to begin.

ARIES

You’re not anyone’s sidekick or anyone’s doormat, Aries. You have protagonist energy, and it’s high time you stopped dimming it in order to make others feel better. You can be the center of attention, the leader, the one with the great idea, or simply the captain of a one person ship. You don’t have to defer to anyone or sacrifice your own needs in the service of someone else’s needs or dreams. You’re afraid of this person abandoning you, of what will happen if they don’t need you any more, of finding out what they will do if you no longer prioritize them above everything else. These are the fears you have to face in this next chapter, but it’s a chapter where you conquer your deepest insecurities. Grab that sword and slay the dragon.

TAURUS

You’ve forgotten that being the hero is all about the journey, Taurus. The celebration, the victory, the award ceremony are only the last few scenes of the movie. You have a long road ahead, full of training montages, failures, and a redemption arc. Don’t get lost in your feelings of defeat – they’re simply a vehicle for you to rise to the top. If you place the current challenges you’re facing today into this perspective, you might actually start to enjoy them. You never know what you’ll end up looking back on fondly. Sometimes the late nights, the creative blocks, the tight deadlines are where our best work comes from. The pleasure of overcoming difficulties is better than the cakes and champagne we commemorate it all with after the fact. Don’t be afraid to truly live in the moment.

CAPRICORN

Not every hero wears a cape, or night-vision goggles, or police badge, Capricorn. Sometimes the hero is a secretary, a post-office employee, or a teacher. You just have to shift your mindset to see yourself in that role, to see the potential you have to be interesting, engaging, and magnetic, because everyone around you already does. Hold your head up high, take pride in the life you’re building around you, and lean into all of the amazing possibilities that currently lie within your reach. Everything is coming together for you at this moment, and you just need to tap into that main character swag that will push you over the finish line. Believing in ourselves can be so much harder than the actual task we set out to accomplish. Just trust that you know what you’re doing, and remember everything you did to get you to this point already.
