4 Zodiacs Who Will Have A Life-Changing February

AQUARIUS

This is the month you lower your expectations, only to be pleasantly surprised, Aquarius. You expect your relationships to look like Valentine’s Day every day, creating an impossible standard for someone to live up to, when life is sure to get in the way. There are other ways to show our love for someone beyond chocolates and flowers. Ways that make room and allow for your current reality. Whether you’re exhausted, overextended, trying to save money, or simply going through something, the specifics don’t matter. Any reason is enough reason to ditch the reservation and order in sushi in your sweatpants. Pop open a bottle of wine and turn on a movie. This is the year you set yourself up for success. Where others overhype, you can prosper.

PISCES

This is the month you bring the spirit of childhood into adulthood, Pisces. You will challenge yourself to welcome, engage, or connect with the people in your vicinity who aren’t prone to smalltalk, with whom you haven’t made a meaningful connection. And even if this small gesture doesn’t make a difference, it’s a critical moment in your own character development. The decision to be that person, the one who is nice to everyone even when you know they’ll never be nice back. Its goodwill for goodwill’s sake, without the promise of a reward or a pat on the back. A commitment to kindness that heals the inner child in you that at one time felt left out of longed for someone to reach out. You are becoming the friend you always wished you had. 

LIBRA

This is the month where your true feelings for someone finally materialize after months of uncertainty. You’ve thought your way out of this attraction with flimsy logic and transparent excuses, and finally, after expending so much energy in the pursuit of resisting these feelings, you succumb to them. You speak up. You drop the act and put your cards on the table. You sacrifice pride and security in exchange for a concrete answer. To finally know if the other person has been experiencing any of the same crazy urges you have. You may be shocked at just how easily an amazing connection can transform into a relationship with substance. Something you can rely and depend on. In retrospect you will laugh at how nervous you were to ask such a simple question. Nevertheless, your nerves signal the weight such a pivotal moment as this will have on the trajectory of your life. All you have to do is decide you’re ready for it to begin.

TAURUS

This is the month you choose to enjoy being single, Taurus. To start every day, like the many others you start by waking up and brushing your teeth. Valentine’s Day didn’t hold any secret power over you, didn’t owe you anything. It came and went like any other day, and you’re starting to see how your single status is not the tragedy you made it out to be for 24 hours. The problem with holidays like this is that they bring out the most competitive and comparative sides of our psyches. Learning to leave that behind, to not let what anyone else is doing have any impact on the way you see yourself, will exponentially improve your own mood and self-esteem in the long run.
