You At Your Best vs You At Your Worst, Based On Your Birth Month

January 

At Your Best

If you were born in January, at your best, you stand out from the crowd and people naturally follow you without question because you really lean into a quiet, but powerful, charisma. You have an unyielding ability to make things happen, and you lead effortlessly in a way that inspires those around you. 

At Your Worst

However, at your worst you can be quite stubborn. This might be your only character flaw, but it is the kind of personality trait that has the ability to hinder your growth and your nature as a leader. Remember, that if you don’t bend sometimes, you will break. It is important to learn how to be flexible, and to take a step back in situations where you might allow for your unwavering persistence to inhibit you. 

February 

At Your Best

If you were born in February, at your best you are a deeply intuitive and empathetic soul. For you, this compassionate nature empowers your heart — loving, and caring for others, is at the forefront of your priorities in life. Your biggest dream is to find the people who make you feel seen and held in this world, and you exude tenderness and sentimentality in everything you do because of that.

At Your Worst

However, at times your softness can hinder you. At your worst, you often find yourself entering into codependent relationships and connections, and those imbalances have the power to push you into a depressed state. When you’re alone, and when you don’t have someone to take care of, you spiral and it can be difficult for you to be self-sufficient. It is important for you to learn how to take care of your own heart, and how to find worthiness in simply loving yourself, before you tear yourself apart trying to love others.

March

At Your Best

If you were born in March, at your best you have this air of charisma to you. You have an affectionate, and attractive personality. You’re carefree to the point of always leaning into your curiosity, and you favor situations that help you to lean into your freedom and to explore the mysteries of the world. Your interest in all that exists in this Universe keeps you alive with awe, and at your best you are young at heart.

At Your Worst

However, due to your carefree nature, it can be extremely difficult for you to hold onto genuine connections in your life. Your curiosity and your interest in turning over every stone when it comes to the world around you means that you are often unfaithful, and at your worst, you are prone to addictions and vices because you will try everything at least once. It is important to remember that finding a foundation and fostering security and balance in your life isn’t boring — it’s necessary. If you fill your life with the right things, and the right human beings, you will never feel like you are sacrificing your freedom to keep them within your atmosphere. 

April

At Your Best

If you were born in April, at your best, your social nature creates within you charming and dynamic power. You are a connector, and you have this tendency to bring others together, and to attract a vast array of friends and suitors while you are at it. People are simply just drawn to you, and when you lean into the power you hold, you are a magnet for all that is beautiful and awe-inspiring in this world. Your energy is undeniable.

At Your Worst

However, the dynamic energy you hold within yourself also means that you are a natural born leader. This kind of personality trait will get you far in life, but at your worst, it can also make you stubborn, and others might perceive you to be bossy at times. You have to make sure that you do not push people away by being too domineering. You can stand in your strengths without needing to dominate every person who tries to get close. Remember that there is power in being soft, too.

May

At Your Best

If you were born in May, at your best, you fully embody your artistic expression, and you use the gifts that were given to you to attract others. You have a depth of feeling that is hard to ignore, and your capacity to share your vulnerability with the world is a magnet that opens you up to an immense amount of opportunities. At times you feel like your purpose within this Universe is to share your heart with others, and at your best you do that naturally, and freely, as if it were a living extension of yourself.

At Your Worst

However, at your worst, despite your capacity to connect, and your desire to dive deeply into the things and the human beings you are passionate about — sometimes, you can have an exaggerated need for solitude. While learning how to be alone is a foundational form of power, choosing it too often can enable certain parts of yourself that would prefer to hide from the world. It is important to remember to make time for balance in your life. You can lean into your solitude and recharge, but don’t allow yourself to so easily hide the light that shines so brightly within you. 

June

At Your Best

If you were born in June, at your best, you are an extremely romantic individual. You saunter through this world with your sensuality, and your passion, and you inspire others to soften into their hearts and to romanticize their lives as devotedly as you do within yours. You are emotional, and expressive, and you have the kind of soul that is flooded with sentimentalism. You bring an err of tenderness to everything you touch, and to every room you walk into, making this world a more idealized version of itself.

At Your Worst

However, despite your airy and romantic nature, you can be very jealous. While you might seem laissez faire, you actually care deeply about those in your life to the point of obsession sometimes. Anything that has the capacity to break your fantasy, or to take your muses from you, is seen as a threat. As a form of projection, at your worst, you also have a tendency to gossip. When this happens, you prefer to bring others down in order to feel like you have company within your own melancholy. Remember — nothing that is meant to stay in your life will leave it. You have to learn how to love without attachment. 

July

At Your Best

If you were born in July, at your best, you are sincere, candid and deeply sympathetic. You care for your family and the people you feel connected to in a way that is pragmatic, and immensely bonded. You go to the greatest of length in order to maintain and protect your relationships. You are loyal, and giving, and you make others believe in the goodness of human beings through your devotion. 

At Your Worst

However, despite how large your heart is, you tend to err on the side of cynicism and you can retreat often into your solitude,  which sometimes confuses those who see you as this ray of shining light in their lives. Sometimes, it may feel like you have a deep sadness within yourself, and you are especially prone to depression when you lean into those sorrowful emotions and feelings. It is important for you to remember to remind yourself of all of the people who genuinely care for you. You give so much of your love to others, and sometimes you may forget that you are deserving of it, too. Don’t hide yourself away. Allow yourself to be held.

August

At Your Best

If you were born in August, at your best you are a shining star when it comes to community and building bonds with those around you. You are known as a very loving, well rounded human being, and you value a lot of the traditional things in life. You work hard to maintain your relationships, to support those around you, to lead with intention and honesty, and to show up as much as possible wherever you are needed. You are trustworthy, and a genuinely truehearted soul. You see the good in everyone, and you strive to bring that good out in them. People are lucky to have you in their lives.

At Your Worst

However, sometimes you can work too hard and spread yourself thin in the pursuit of being everything for everyone around you. At your worst, you are burnt out, and emotionally drained, because your cup is often emptied out at your own expense. You abandon yourself and your boundaries, and you push yourself to the brink of depletion. Your biggest weakness often arises in the form of health related issues that stem from being overworked. Remember — you are enough for the people who love you. You don’t have to be perfect in order to be chosen. You don’t have to expend so much energy in order to be loved back. You are allowed to give some of your energy to yourself. You are allowed to take time to fill your own up, as well. 

September

At Your Best

If you were born in September, at your best you are a highly intelligent and spiritual soul. You are connected to both the beauty in this life, and also the awe that comes from understanding it on a level that most don’t. Your mind is extraordinary, and sharing it with others is one of your greatest gifts. You have the capacity to do the most world-changing things with your intellect, and when you really lean into the power that comes from the way you think — you can move mountains. You truly are unstoppable.

At Your Worst

However, at your worst, you are prone to depression due to the fact that you overthink and often overanalyze the world around you. You see so much wonder in everything that fills your atmosphere, but your experiences within it, your connections, your journey itself — they all undergo an almost interrogative investigation, and your inner critic influences you to spiral. It is important to remember to take a moment and pause whenever you feel intrusive thoughts try to rob you of the goodness life is fighting to show you. Embrace your precious moments, and be present within them. Make your mind a beautiful place to be, and be kind to it. You deserve that kind of peace.

October

At Your Best

If you were born in October, at your best, you are the kind of person who achieves anything they put their energy into. When you decide on a goal, you almost always meet it, and you have a persistence within yourself that is awe-inspiring. Because you believe that you create your own fate, you are highly optimistic, and you put all of your energy into creating the kind of life for yourself that you can be proud of. You have an unwavering amount of faith in your capacities, and when you lean into something, you do it with all of your heart. You give your whole soul to love, to your passions, and to the things in this life that ignite your curiosity. You truly are the definition of “all in.” 

At Your Worst

However, anything that has the capacity to get in the way of you achieving your goals, or hardships in life that force you to put your energy into things you would rather not be doing, can lead you to be overwhelmingly irritated. You put so much passion into everything you do, but this also means that you have the ability to put it into your anger, and less positive emotions. When things don’t go your way, you can be very vengeful. It is important to remember that certain things in your life are taken from you in order for better things to take their place. You can redirect your energy, and focus on the beauty you are capable of creating for yourself, instead of gripping too tightly to anything that has failed to come to fruition for you. Trust in what leaves. Trust in what is to come.

November

At Your Best

If you were born in November, at your best you are compassionate, positive and your intuition functions at an almost psychic level. You feel everything very deeply in this world, and you connect with it in a transcendent way. Out of all other birth months, you are the kind of person who most would consider an empath. You are open to this world, and you are receptive to its gifts and all of the beauty it has to offer you. On your best days, you truly radiate a lightness that softens others, and helps for them to feel seen, and safe within your energy. Your bonds are eternal.

At Your Worst

However, with deep sensitivity comes an incredible need for boundaries. At times, you can be overwhelmed by your capacity to tap into the emotions and the experiences of others. Sometimes, things are hard to take on, and you can feel weighed down by the burdens of others and your compassion for them within their struggles. Because of this, you can develop stress related illnesses, and you are prone to dealing with chronic fatigue and depression. It is important to remember to disconnect from time to time. You cannot always be energetically attuned to the world around you, you have to learn how to lean into the world that is your own mind, and your own soul, and your own emotions. You are allowed to choose your own boundaries. You are allowed to detach from sentiments, and sensations, you’d rather not carry on your own.

December

At Your Best

If you were born in December, at your best, you are an overwhelmingly lucky human being. Good things find their way to you at an alarming rate — it is as if you call them in just by desiring them, or thinking of them. You are lucky when it comes to love, when it comes to wealth, when it comes to success and the pursuit of your passions. Others might make jokes about how things tend to fall into your lap and work out in your favor, and they aren’t wrong. The Universe is consistently generous with you, and you are in a constant state of reward. 

At Your Worst

However, the danger with understanding just how lucky you are in this world is that it can sometimes make you feel immortal. If you continue to believe that everything is yours for the taking, and that there are no consequences to any actions because things tend to always work out in your favor, you can put yourself in risky positions and get into detrimental situations. It is important to remind yourself that you are human, and that there will always be repercussions to certain actions. You have to take care of yourself with the same amount of energy you believe the Universe puts into caring for you. Embrace your luck, but don’t push it.
