What Every Zodiac Sign Needs To Hear Before October 13

Aries

Vulnerability can be terrifying, because while you can be a brave soul, it’s another thing entirely to open your heart to hurt. But when you find a place—a person—that makes you feel safe, I hope you choose to break down those walls and let everything you’ve built up inside you spill out. People want to love you for who you are—every single piece of you.

Taurus

When you’re thinking about someone, let them know. When you love someone, tell them. When you have a nice thought, speak it into the world. So often, we convince ourselves that holding back will keep us safe, and before we know it, our first impulse when we feel something like this is to dismiss it. But how often have we missed the chance at something great because we were afraid? And how would your life change if you started speaking your mind and showing others the love and kindness you so naturally possess?

Gemini

You have a tendency to get lost with your head in the clouds, but I hope you remember that there’s so many important things for you down on earth, too. Reality can be boring, even disappointing, but at the end of the day, this is what we have to make the most of our lives with. Instead of shying away from it, use that beautiful brain of yours to turn the everyday into the magical.

Cancer

I hope you understand how naturally lovable you are. How kind, how loving, how deeply comforting you are to those around you. It can be difficult to see these traits within ourselves, but just know that others recognize all these beautiful qualities you possess. I hope you start looking for them within you, though, because there is so much strength and understanding your own worth. You are invaluable to the world.

Leo

Remember: Who you are is always enough. Sometimes we try to convince ourselves that our worth is contingent on checking specific boxes or fitting into a certain mold, but that simply isn’t true, and you shouldn’t listen to anyone who says otherwise. You are worthy of love, of respect, just by existing. You will always be just right for the people who are meant to be in your life.

Virgo

The funny thing about life is that it rarely, if ever, goes to plan. And yet, for some reason, we judge ourselves for not being where we think we should be or for not being able to follow someone else’s footsteps perfectly. But what if the reason something may not work out for you immediately isn’t because you aren’t good enough but just because you’re not ready for that step yet? What if it means there’s something else waiting for you that might not be part of your plan but is just as amazing, if not better than, what you thought you wanted? Never forget to keep your mind open, and more importantly, please be kind to yourself.

Libra

You have a way of seeing both sides of every situation, and yet when it comes to you, you hold yourself to such a high standard. And that’s not always a bad thing—you want to be the best you can be at every possible moment. Just know that you’re allowed to show yourself compassion, too. You’re not always going to do the “right” thing, and it’s okay to recognize that that’s a part of the human condition—something you’re experiencing, too.

Scorpio

There will always be hardships in life; there will always be dark days and seemingly endless nights. It’s okay to feel through these times, to let your sadness and your hurt and your grief burrow into you. I just hope you know that once you give these feelings their time, you’re allowed to let them go. You’re allowed to move on and let the light in. You’re allowed to reclaim your happiness. It doesn’t mean the things you lost weren’t important, and it doesn’t mean the things you went through didn’t matter. It just means you understand you deserve the good things, too.

Sagittarius

Before you move on, before you let something go, I hope you choose to honor the good it brought into your life. I hope you recognize the ways it made you grow, the things you learned along the way. I hope you remember the ways it made you happy when it did. I hope you understand that all these good things don’t mean you’re wrong to move on, just that life is full of nuance. Thank the universe for what it has given you, but don’t be afraid to let go of the things that are no longer for you.

Capricorn

You’re not going to win every battle—even for someone as persistent as you, it’s just not possible. That’s why it’s important to see these losses not as an indication of your own lack of worth but instead as a lesson worth learning. The things you take away from these moments will be what pushes you forward to victory next time.

Aquarius

There will always be people who don’t understand you, people who choose to misinterpret your thoughts or those who simply cannot wrap their minds around them. Don’t focus on those people. Life is not about the people who do not get you but about the ones who do. There are people out there who will value your opinions and want to know what’s on your mind. Never stop looking for those people, and once you find them, do not let them go.

Pisces

Remember: Even in those moments when you feel disconnected from the world, you are not alone. Sometimes you burrow yourself so far into your brain that you forget that. But there are so many people out there waiting for you, wanting you to hold out your hand to them. There are so many people who want to see you thrive. You are loved, even if your brain tries to convince you otherwise.
