4 Zodiacs Who Need To Let Go Of Control This Week (June 12 – 18)

You have your week set. You know what you want to do and how you want to do it. That kind of rigidness has gotten you where you are now, but is being so stuck in a certain way of doing things really all that good for you? Sometimes it’s better to just let go. If you’re one of the following four zodiac signs, use this week as the perfect time to let go of control.

Cancer

You’d like to think of yourself as carefree, but how true is that really? Can you really be called easy-going if you’re so often deep in your feelings? Anxiety is doing a really great job of holding you back. This week, don’t let a bad mood make decisions for you. Instead, just try to let go. I know that’s easier said than done, but as soon as you realize that your emotions aren’t the be-all end-all of who you are as a person, the sooner you can shed their influence. Live your life in the carefree way you’ve always insisted you already do.

Virgo

As much as you’d hate to admit it, all the zodiac articles are correct when they say that you like to have everything planned out. You like structure. You like order. And you like to be the one in control at all times. It’s just who you are. But that doesn’t mean you can’t take a break every now and then. So this is your call to take it easy this week. You don’t have to completely throw out your schedule or to do list, but you could at least spend some time doing absolutely nothing for as long as you need to. I promise you’ll feel better that you did.

Scorpio

You know the walls you have up? The ones that keep you from being too vulnerable with people, especially if you haven’t known them for long? While those walls may be protecting you from certain social situations, they also have the unintended consequence of walling you off from yourself. You’re doing yourself a disservice, but you probably already know that. So take a first step this week to letting go, even if it’s just for yourself.

Aquarius

You don’t like when people call you a workaholic. It’s not because it’s not true–you have to admit you seem to be on the clock at all hours of the day and night–but more so you hate that people consider it a bad thing. Workaholics get shit done, and you love what you do. Still, burnout is very real and you’re getting closer and closer to that edge. Set aside work. Ditch your home projects or detailed hobbies, even if it’s just for an evening. Relax. Watch a show or something. Take a luxurious bath. Your tired mind and body will thank you.
