Zodiac

GEMINI (5/21 – 6/20)

You need to stop being so afraid to say no. You don’t need an excuse, or a valid reason why. ‘No’ on its own is a full sentence. You have so much on your plate as it is, the time you will gain back being honest instead of endlessly fretting makes this change worth it.

CANCER (6/21 – 7/22)

You need to stop being so afraid to take up space. To speak your wants, your needs, your discomforts out loud to the world. Stop trying to be the good child, the one who doesn’t need any time or attention or care. You are worth more than being under everyone’s radar.

LEO (7/23 – 8/22)

You need alone time. You might think that socializing is what recharges your batteries, but everyone needs sleep and peace and quiet and time to catch up on chores and bills and shitty things that pile up when left unattended. Attend to your responsibilities like an emotional gardener and watch how you thrive.

VIRGO (8/23 – 9/22)

Stop being such a shitty patient, Virgo. In no other aspect of your life would you leave something so clearly wrong unaddressed or ignored. You’d never let an open cut bleed all over your kitchen, so why are you letting your emotional wounds fester? Do the work, even when you are the work.

LIBRA (9/23 – 10/22)

You can leave the dishes in the sink to chase your dreams, Libra. Stop swirling in the minutiae of your own life as an excuse to avoid the real things that are calling your name. You’re worried about writing thank you cards when you should be focused on a first draft of your novel. Tackle the meaty thing with meaning.

SCORPIO (10/23 – 11/21)

The heartbreaker can have their heart broken, Scorpio, it’s no use pretending you’re fine when you’re not. Stop being so afraid to show you care because it will mean you’ve lost something. The alternative is never having had anything to lose from the get go, and I don’t have to tell you which is worse.

SAGITTARIUS (11/22 – 12/21)

You don’t have to start over again, Sagittarius, you just need to be brave enough to try again. To pick yourself back up again, go to bed, get some sleep, wake up, and give it another go. You can’t expect to get everything right on the first try. Have the patience to make true progress. Slowly, but steadily.

CAPRICORN (12/22 – 1/19)

You need time to rest, Capricorn. You can’t just work yourself to the bone and not expect it to slow you down. Even machines require maintenance, so stop ignoring the service lights flashing on your own dashboard before it’s too late. There are too many people depending on you to shirk the responsibility of self-care.

AQUARIUS (1/20 – 2/18)

You need to stop feeling guilty for things that are completely out of your control Aquarius. You cannot control other’s feelings, or ensure they end up satisfied with the way life turns out. There are just too many external factors. You can’t pretend to be the puppet master.

PISCES (2/19 – 3/20)

You need to take better care of yourself by accepting the reality of things sooner instead of clinging to the rewrite in your head, Pisces. It’s only setting you up for disappointment. The fact that you can script better friends or lovers for yourself is a sign to look for people who live up to those standards.

ARIES (3/21 – 4/19)

You can take care of yourself by learning to be more vulnerable, by communicating your wants and needs at the emotional level instead of fixating on the particulars. Adopt “I feel” statements, and focus on what you want to see from others. Don’t be afraid to ask them for it directly. It will get your farther than demanding.

TAURUS (4/20 – 5/20)

You need to stop selling yourself short, Taurus. You have already “made it” by following a path of your own making. You don’t need a Cartier watch or a new car to prove it to anyone, let alone yourself. Focus on the invaluable skills and qualities you bring to the world. No one can put a price on that.
