Quotes Bringing Peace To Every Zodiac’s Mind Today (December 5)
Aries: You Can Heal
“This is how you heal:
Spend more time with people who let you be you, and less time with people who don’t. Trust your own gut before you prioritize the opinion and advice of others. Journal. Get in touch with your own thoughts, feelings, and consciousness. Understand that some friendships are not meant to last. Wish them well and move forward in your own journey. Love fiercely but not at the expense of loving yourself. If you ever feel you must choose between a relationship and your own wellbeing, choose you. Hold out for the relationship that doesn’t make you choose between the two. Find reasons to laugh, and bring laughter into the heart of those you love. Go to therapy. If you have something you’re passionate about, chase it. Don’t let fear of judgment or failure stop you. Say goodbye to those who hurt you. Both literally and figuratively. Believe that you are worth healing and deserve it wholly.”

Taurus: You Deserve To Celebrate
“Your turn is coming, your time is coming, your happiness is coming. Even if it feels like you have been celebrating the happiness and success of others a lot lately, make sure you don’t forget about all the things you already have to be grateful for. You may not have it all just yet, but you are a work in progress, and there is still so much falling into place for you. Your journey may look a little different but I promise you it isn’t any less worthy of recognition.
There are moments so worth celebrating that are unfairly overlooked. So instead of feeling like you can only smile for other people, normalize feeling proud of yourself for ending a toxic relationship instead of staying with them for the sake of being in a relationship, normalize being proud of yourself for leaving a job where you had the opportunity to progress your career but it was destroying your soul in the process, normalize being proud of yourself for putting your life on hold as you heal. It gets exhausting saving all your smiles for other people so please don’t forget how far you have come and how proud of yourself you should be. Don’t let your impatience cause you to grow cynical. Everything coming to you is worth waiting for, just don’t forget to celebrate everything along the way.”

Gemini: You Are Strong
“I think it’s brave. I think it’s brave that you get up in the morning when your heart aches and life is messy and you do not feel like being soft for the world. I think it is brave that you continue to love and express and open your soul, despite the way you were treated in the past. I think it is brave that you keep going, that you keep believing in something more, something bigger, even when you may not know what you are hoping for. I think it is brave that you fight, I think it is brave that you choose, every single day, to move for-ward-because that is what makes you strong. That is what makes you strong.”
— Bianca Sparacino, The Strength In Our Scars
Cancer: Trust Yourself
“Piece by piece, you are going to make a life for yourself. Not because you have finally arrived at a place where everything is perfect, but because you have allowed your flowers to grow in between the concrete of your grief. Because you have chosen to believe in hope for just one more second than you have indulged your fear. Because you learned to stop holding yourself to your own impossible standards and began to practice following your heart through each hour of each day, letting it lead you to the greatest revelations, smallest pleasures, and the quiet salve of healing hours. You are going to make a life for yourself, even if you fear you’re not. You’ve been doing it all along.”
— Brianna Wiest, The Pivot Year
Leo: You Are Worthy
“Read this when you forget your worth:
When you forget your worth, please know that you are not an afterthought. You are not an idea that needs mulling over. You are not an option. You are not second best. And anyone who makes you feel any of those ways doesn’t deserve you anyway.”
— Molly Burford, Moments To Hold Close
Virgo: Affirm Abundance
“Affirm:
I am thankful for my life.
I see abundance all around me.
I will take every opportunity to reflect on the blessings that I’ve worked so hard to manifest.”
— Michell C. Clark, Eyes on the Road
Libra: Take Your Time
“There’s no shame in taking longer. You aren’t behind, and your timing isn’t wrong. Your path is just different. And it’s okay. Life isn’t a competition or a race. You can’t compare the journey you’re on or the things you’ve achieved because everyone is going to different places. We all have different goals and dreams and values. Different strengths and struggles and traumas. Different opportunities and access and resources. And that means the places we get to and the ways in which we get there are going to be unique. It’s okay if your timeline looks different. And it’s okay to walk down a completely different path. There’s strength in honoring your needs. Strength in giving yourself the best possible chance to succeed by going at your own pace and being mindful of what you’re currently able to give. You just have to be patient with yourself and your process. You’ll get to where you want to be. You’ll achieve your goals. You’ll make it to the end. You have time. There’s nothing written in stone that says you have to reach certain milestones by a specific age. There’s no rule that your successes count Less if you take longer to achieve them. It takes however long it takes, and it’s okay. It’s still real and worthwhile and valid. You’re allowed to take longer than other people. You’re allowed to take the time you need.

Scorpio: You Are Cared For
“Everything you desire is moving towards you. There is no rush, there is no need for questions or concerns. Don’t worry so much about the details. Don’t worry so much about when and where or why and how. God planted your desires for a divine reason. But before the seeds can sprout, you must build a fruitful foundation. You must grow your gratitude; you must water your self-worth. Rest in confidence that this universe will always take care of you.”
— Déjà Rae, Come Home To Yourself
Sagittarius: Don’t Cap Your Potential
“I hope you allow your life to be bigger than you ever thought it could be. I hope you allow yourself to embody more beauty than you ever thought possible. I hope you don’t get trapped by the small stories, the little ideas you had about what the future may be. I hope you don’t long for the things you’ve outgrown just because they’re familiar. I hope you don’t consider everything you lose to be a loss. I hope you don’t define yourself only by the limits of what you’ve known. I hope you do not cap your potential at what others have said is pos-sible. Most of all, I hope you recognize the light when it hits you. I hope you let yourself do more than you ever thought you could.”
— Brianna Wiest, Ceremony
Capricorn: Keep Going
“A reason to keep going:
Even if the current circumstances in your life make you question how you’ll ever get to where you want to be, you have to understand that everything you are currently experiencing or have experienced has a purpose. Because those previous steps brought you to where you are today, molding you into the person that you are. But remember: there are still so many moments to experience that will bring you joy and closer to your destiny. More laughs, more books to read, more people to meet, more risks, more love, more pictures to take, more songs to discover, more places to see, and more food to taste.
Once you believe you’re worthy of experiencing more, you’ll realize you have the power within you to bring those things to life, and you’ll see the world differently.”
—Karin Hadadan, Beauty in the Stillness
Aquarius: Fight For Yourself
“I hope you choose to fight for yourself instead of against yourself. I hope you choose to not hold on to the hurt, but instead work on the hurt so that you can live the life you dream about. I am not saying forgive and forget. Pain often leaves permanent wounds, but those wounds will never turn into scars if you never forgive, and the thing about scars is… Scars don’t hurt. Too many people walk around ignoring their wounds and live a life in a constant fight with themselves. Life is not supposed to be a repetitive struggle. Life is supposed to be an enjoyable and beautiful experience that fills your soul with more sunshine than rain.
You deserve to fight for yourself and you deserve people who will fight for you. You are worth someone’s complete attention and care, but this is your reminder that you are also worth your own. Give yourself all the time and attention you need to heal. You are doing better than you think you are.”
— Jacqueline Whitney, All That Your Deserve
Pisces: You Are Not Failing
“Please, just trust the timing of your life. You don’t have to have it all figured out by a certain age; you don’t have to chase a version of success that does not inspire you.
You just have to learn about yourself. You have to keep doing the work — not just physically, but emotionally.
You have to learn about who you are on a foundational level, you have to understand what you deeply value, what ignites your soul, what makes you want to get up in the morning, and you have to choose that every single day. You have to stand up for it. You have to leap towards that hope, even when it’s scary, even when you’re the only one dreaming in that direction.
Because there’s no point in moving quickly towards a life you don’t want. There’s no point in doing everything right if you are just going to end up unhappy.
No—you are not failing at life. You are not falling behind because you are moving at a different pace than those around you. You are not odd, or delusional, if your dreams do not look like the ones society told you to have when you were younger. You are making your life your own. You are growing into your future. Never be ashamed of that.”
