ARIES

March 21-April 19

Just because things are not as you want them to be doesn’t mean that the sky is falling, Aries. There’s unexpected opportunity hidden in the dung pile that’s upsetting you this week. Instead of anticipating the worst, look for what good can be made of your situation. Manage your fears to make the best of your situation.

TAURUS

April 20-May 20

Ask anyone who’s given birth; it hurts. In order to push through major change and growth it’s bound to ache, Taurus, but it’s not the kind of pain you should avoid. Be patient with yourself as you sort through the intense emotions that come with the unknown. Don’t evade your feelings; explore them.

GEMINI

May 21-June 21

Pain sucks. A broken heart can break you, if you let it, or you can use your hurt to help heal your heart. This week you should look to your pain as a wise, albeit crappy, teacher. Learn more about how to care and support your self this week, Gemini. Be brave enough to ask for help when you need it.

CANCER

June 22-July 22

Be brave enough to do things at your own pace, Moonchild, even if it’s wicked slowly. You need to get on board with the direction your life is pointing you and that will take effort. Take space to be still and process your perspective, outside of everyone else’s. Do what’s needed to get right with your self.

LEO

July 23-Aug. 22

Compromise is a tricky thing. You can’t always meet people in the middle, and the middle is sometimes too great a distance from what everybody really wants anyways. This week you are meant to learn about the art of give and take. Look for creative strategies instead of black or white solutions, Leo.

VIRGO

Aug. 23-Sept. 22

Don’t make any rash moves, Virgo. Yes, you do need to make some changes but anxiety may be tricking your mind about what is the right stuff to shift. Investigate your inner workings before you decide what your feelings mean. If possible, change yourself before you change anything else this week.

LIBRA

Sept. 23-Oct. 22

You’ve been thinking about making some pretty radical changes for a long time, and now is the time to execute them. Use this week as a springboard to trying new things that’ll open doors for you, Libra. You deserve to be happy; make sure the commitments you’re investing energy and time into aid you towards that goal.

SCORPIO

Oct. 23-Nov. 21

This week is all about endings, Scorpio, but that isn’t a bad thing. Look around you and see if you are carrying around relationships, attitudes or behaviors that are weighing you down. You will experience more freedom and opportunity when you let this played-out stuff go. Step into short-term pain for long-term gain.

SAGITTARIUS

Nov. 22-Dec. 21

When you run yourself ragged you end up draining more than your energy, you end up draining your clarity, Sagittarius. This week you should try to pace yourself or you may end up unnecessarily feeling wicked dramatic. Tend to your insides so that you can better deal with the world outside of you.

CAPRICORN

Dec. 22-Jan. 19

There’s always a middle ground, even if you’re not always patient enough to find it, Capricorn. You may have exhausted all of your options in your present direction, but you’re on the verge of a breakthrough, so hang tight. The insights you garner this week are likely to open a door you can’t even see yet.

AQUARIUS

Jan. 20-Feb. 18

There is more to learn from the process of unfoldment in your life than meets the eye. The changes that are playing out for you this week are not permanent; they may or may not turn out to have staying power, but only time will tell. You are on a bridge, Aquarius, travel it lightly and keep on looking forward.

PISCES

Feb. 19-March 20

You should strive to be no one but yourself, Pisces. Do not loose so much faith in yourself that you start acting as others do or as you think they might want you to.  It is a far better thing to make mistakes while being your self than to get it right while being disingenuous. You’re awesome, don’t forget it.

ARIES

March 21-April 19

It’s a lucky thing that you have great reserves of inner strength to draw upon, because you’re gonna need them, Aries. Anxiety and a general fear of the unknown may plague your thinking this week, but it’s not all doom and gloom! This internal crisis is meant to help you realign with strength and truth of who you are and what you are capable of.

TAURUS

April 20-May 20

How’re those New Years resolutions coming along, Taurus? Here’s the thing about big-picture goal setting: you have to really impregnate yourself with your ideas. Let them gestate a while. That allows them to mature into a thing you can steadily move towards. Don’t just make changes, make improvements, pal.

GEMINI

May 21-June 21

The truth is that things end, they change, they do lots of things but stay the same ain’t one of them. You are capable of wrapping your head around a lot, but the challenge is in bringing your heart along for the ride, Twin Star. For the most creative outcomes this week, stay emotionally present through the tough stuff.

CANCER

June 22-July 22

Success can be more terrifying than failure. Most of us are identified with the ways that we suffer or the inhibitions that frame what we will or won’t do. This week is likely to find you struggling with the growing pains that only come from expansion and achievement. Grow beyond your comfort zone, Cancer.

LEO

July 23-Aug. 22

You are not in the right frame of mind to figure stuff out, Leo. When you feel tired or stretched too thin is not the time to figure out what most ails you. Tend to your emotional foundations this week by getting right with yourself. Do this before nursing your relationships or negotiating your needs for best results.

VIRGO

Aug. 23-Sept. 22

Collaborate, Virgo!  It’s not that you can’t be successful in solo ventures this week but you should strive to consider the needs of others and the atmosphere that you’re working in. Let your ego be robust in that you don’t let others define you, but humble enough to let them inform and feed your process.

LIBRA

Sept. 23-Oct. 22

Your relationships are wicked important, and this week they require action. Play and laughter are healing tools, and when they are used creatively can heal old wounds or deepen existing intimacies. There are two relationships in particular that are deserving of your radiance, so shine your light in their direction, Libra.

SCORPIO

Oct. 23-Nov. 21

If you don’t learn from mistakes past you will be destined to repeat them all over again. Just because you dress up your old troubles in new clothes doesn’t mean they’ll come out looking any different. Try taking a truly new direction this week, Scorpio; you’ll be better off for it.

SAGITTARIUS

Nov. 22-Dec. 21

Trust your intuition, Sagittarius. You need to transform a meaningful relationship this week, and whether that requires changing your attitudes or your actions you’ve got to be honest with yourself about what you can handle. Listen to yourself and honor what you hear with follow-through.

CAPRICORN

Dec. 22-Jan. 19

All you can do is be yourself. Now, I suppose if you are naturally a jerk this can cause a lot of problems, but at least they will be problems that are true to you. Be willing to lay it all out there, Cappy, and let the consequences change you. Don’t worry about what that’ll look like, just work on being vulnerable this week.

AQUARIUS

Jan. 20-Feb. 18

Hunting requires patience and agility, for you must be able to sit still for a long period of time and all the while be ready to act impulsively. Channel the wisdom of a hunter as you strive to create as much happiness and prosperity as you can this week. Waiting is an active and engaged process when you’re doing it right.

PISCES

Feb. 19-March 20

Lean on your friends this week, Pisces. You are meant to connect or reconnect with the people you love and share the changes you’ve undergone. Don’t assume what they will think or say; take risks that allow others to rise to the occasion and support you in being a more whole version of your sweet self.

ARIES

March 21-April 19

This week:

When you’re stretched too thin, it’s hard to take full responsibility for everything you are committed to. This week you should strive to be accountable to your word; make certain that you are living up to what you’ve promised. Own your limitations as a way to take responsibility for the whole of what you intend to do. 

2013: Happy New Year, Aries! The ego is a tricky thing, and while many of us associate it with over-confidence, it more often balloons out of fear and insecurity. This year your relationships will be the most important stuff, not only because they can be a great source of happiness, but also because they hold up such an accurate mirror. Choose to be true to yourself and those you love instead of succumbing to defensive reactiveness in 2013.

TAURUS

April 20-May 20

This week:

Love and kindness make all things in life better and even makes the crappy stuff easier to bear. Don’t let your ego inhibit you from sharing your feelings and needs with others this week, Taurus. You are meant to be undergoing an emotional transformation, make sure it’s a healthy and happy-making shift.

2013: Happy New Year, Taurus! Who do you want to be, and how will your life be different if you actually become that dream self? 2013 is a challenge for you to grow into a truer version of your self. Your fears of change, rejection and good old-fashioned failure will do their best to thwart you, but don't let them, pal. You are capable. It will require sustained dedication and follow-through to outgrow your old posturing, but it's worth it. Embrace growth.

GEMINI

May 21-June 21

This week:

Make decisions and stick by them this week, Twin Star. You are in the perfect place to start something new, but it will require some single-mindedness that is not completely organic for you. Know what you want and trust that if you take the proper steps you’ll totally make it happen.

2013: Happy New Year, Twin Star! Its 2013 and you know you need change, but you don't know how to do it, or even what the best direction is. Don't worry too much over the details; contemplate what your life would feel like if you were more happy with it, what might you be doing differently? Keep your eyes open for opportunities that will allow your life to feel as you want it to, even if the path is dramatically different than you would have thought.

CANCER

June 22-July 22

This week:

You are meant to move through the deep inner workings of your fears this week, Cancer. Don’t let your fears of vulnerability or of being hurt get in the way of developing the relationships you want. Be the person you want to be in the here and now! Don’t wait for your fears to pass, find the courage to act in spite of them.

2013: Happy New Year, Moonchild! Your 2013 theme centers on your center. Get to lovin' yourself, even if that means making peace with some uncomfortable truths about who you've been. You cannot successfully participate in life based on fantasies of who you are. So get real. It's only by knowing yourself that you can create change that sticks. Show yourself compassion and experience the kind of self-acceptance that's infectious.

LEO

July 23-Aug. 22

This week:

Fretting over the future will do no good in helping you shape it, Leo. Instead of seeing where you are helpless in directing your life, look to what is possible to change within it to make it more awesome. Your personal world is maturing, so you’d better strive to mature along with it. Make sure your goals match your needs, pal.

2013: Happy New Year, Leo! This upcoming year the fates want you to go deeper that you've gone before into your mental wellness. Uncertainties can have a crippling effect on your self-esteem and mess with your sense of purpose if you let them. How you mentally and emotionally manage the unknowable will have a defining effect on your year. Success will come though your striving to better understand and support the good, the bad and the ugly within.

VIRGO

Aug. 23-Sept. 22

This week:

Follow play, love and laughter and feel how it changes your life, Virgo. Looking for the light inclines you to actually seeing it, and this week you’ll find it’s all around you, helping you on your way. Use this time of feeling good to improve your life. Set goals and look for creative solutions to the things you’ve been putting off. 

2013: Happy New Year, Virgo! 2013 is going to change you, there's no two ways about it. If you believed that life wants you to be happy, and that there is an abundance of what you need, how would you regard things differently? Strike up the courage to believe in the potential of your own happiness and success. Dare to grow when you would rather shrink and hide. Take heart and stand tall; it's better to risk and fail this year than to not try at all.

LIBRA

Sept. 23-Oct. 22

This week:

When it’s too much it’s too much, Libra. You need to know when you’ve hit your limit and can no longer be reasonable in your thinking ‘cause you’re feeling too burdened and reactive. Slow things down so you can calmly catch up with your feelings instead of trying to rush in and fix things this week. 

2013: Happy New Year, Libra! This year it's time to get free from being a people pleaser, and to saying yes when you mean maybe or no. Treat yourself to some radical honesty. Don't assume that it's your job to protect everyone's feelings, or that you even know what they are. Let your relationships thrive in the space between where you are authentic as opposed to easy, and let others be themselves, too. It'll be worth it, even if it seriously changes things.

SCORPIO

Oct. 23-Nov. 21

This week: 

Your relationships need your care and attention. Distinguish the difference between false friends and true, and kindness versus enabling, Scorpio. Be courageous as you stand up for love, but don’t confuse that for an invitation to needlessly step into power struggles; pick your battles wisely this week.

2013: Happy New Year, Scorpio! Saturn is sitting in your sign all of 2013 and that means heavy lessons and serious introspection all year long for you. Remember that action always speaks louder than suffering! Once you see a thing clearly you can change it or decide to change yourself to accommodate it. This year is one of seeking, and for best results you should let what you most value motivate your actions. Stay focused on your goals and pro-active in achieving them.

SAGITTARIUS

Nov. 22-Dec. 21

This week:

We all want things to turn out OK, and we all worry what will happen if it doesn’t. You can’t control the future and what others will or won’t do, Sag, but you can prepare yourself. Cultivate strength enough that you are able to handle whatever comes your way. Have faith in yourself this week.

2013: Happy New Year, Sagittarius! They say, "Forgiveness is letting go of all hope of a better past." This year you need to forgive yourself for all the crap you did or didn't do, and to offer the same compassion to others. None of us are perfect, and you should strive to accept the mistakes that have made you who you are today. Don't confuse enabling with kindness or idealizing with generosity in 2013.

CAPRICORN

Dec. 22-Jan. 19

This week:

Make lemonade, Capricorn. Not some sour juice with the seeds all in it, instead make artisan agave and lavender infused lemonade, nectar of the Gods. In other words, don’t just make due with what you’ve got, find a way to get inspired and make fabulous with it. There is opportunity in everything, even bitter fruit.

2013: Happy New Year, Cappy! In this upcoming year you need to stop trying to figure things out. Look for creative solutions for what lies in front of you instead of trying make things fit into your agenda. The problems you face in 2013 will require your willingness to dare to stand up and be yourself, even when that feels risky. Treat yourself like a BFF instead of a frenemy when the going gets complicated.

AQUARIUS

Jan. 20-Feb. 18

This week: 

Where will worry get you, Aquarius? Just harried and scared and to the exact same place you were going anyways. This week you should strive to manage your feelings before you project them onto your circumstances. Just ‘cause you feel crappy doesn’t mean that you have to let it drag you and your situations down. 

2013: Happy New Year, Aquarius! Look forward to cultivating some patience this year. Let 2013 be the time that you thoughtfully consider all of your options and make the best choices possible. If that's not your mindset you may find yourself impatiently overdoing things and wrecking havoc in your life. Think like an economist and make cost-effective choices this year.

PISCES

Feb. 19-March 20

This week: Patience, Pisces, patience! You are at the helm of a whole new phase of development and nothing needs to be perfect yet. Let this week be one of gathering tools and setting expectations. If you clarify your approach you’ll get where you wanna be in the right time, even if it’s later than you’d prefer

2013: Happy New Year, Pisces! It's the year of the hug, the year of family and love and connection. That also means that it's time for you to open yourself up to intimacy, which is hard and super rewarding work. Practice the fine art of receiving in 2013. True generosity is not just about being giving; it can only be attained when you are able to receive what others are offering you. Be open to experiencing new and deeper forms of vulnerability.

xo and Happy New Year!

ARIES

March 21-April 19

It’s wicked hard to be patient, especially when you just know that your way is the best way. This week you need staying power if you want to avoid creating needless drama. Use your awesome sense of humor and playfulness to diffuse the difficult stuff, including your perpetual restlessness, pal.

TAURUS

April 20-May 20

You’re stuck in a tough spot but there’s no anchor to tether yourself to outside of yourself. That doesn’t mean you can’t trust or lean on others, but you need to stand by what yourself above all else, Taurus. Let go of what you assume you’re “supposed” to do or be and just figure out what’s right for you.

GEMINI

May 21-June 21

Just because you’re ambiguous doesn’t mean you’re on the wrong track, Gemini. You need to trust in your instincts this week, and that means you’ve gotta be emotionally present enough to perceive them! Take care of the basics so that you don’t bring your insecurities from the place of bad-vibes fantasy to reality.

CANCER

June 22-July 22

The problem with being scared of things going wrong is that those thoughts and feelings motivate you to look for evidence of your fears coming true. This week you should resist the impulse to look for what you least want, Moonchild. Put your formidable energy into calming your insides instead.

LEO

July 23-Aug. 22

It’s important that you reflect on your needs enough so that when le merde hits the fan you are still armed with enough self-knowledge to react in the best ways possible. Tend to yourself as a way to support your relationships this week; give freely and practice receiving the gifts presented to you, Leo.

VIRGO

Aug. 23-Sept. 22

There’s too much going on, and it feels super overwhelming. This week you’re best tool is love, your greatest insights will be inspired by compassion and the only way to go is to assume the best of others (and yourself). Unify, don’t divide as a way to come to a better understanding of your situation.

LIBRA

Sept. 23-Oct. 22

The best risks to take are around being your self. Authentically try for the stuff you want and invest in the goodness of your future in creative ways this week. Don’t take on anything new, focus on working with what you’ve got. Finish what you’ve started and repurpose instead of throw stuff out. You’re on your way, Libra.

SCORPIO

Oct. 23-Nov. 21

Don’t think about it, just do it, Scorpio! You are on the verge of a big transition and you’ve processed as much with the well-oiled machine of your mind that is helpful. Now’s the time to go through the steps of opening up to something new, and letting go of what has been proven to not work.

SAGITTARIUS

Nov. 22-Dec. 21

You can’t have it all at once all the time, Sagittarius. This week will test your ability to manage your thinking. If you jump to worst-case scenarios you’ll be stressed and get freaked out by how few options you see. Practice trusting in the abundance of your days. Even if it’s not here right now, there’s plenty of time for it to come.

CAPRICORN

Dec. 22-Jan. 19

You shouldn’t have to know who’s gonna win in order to play the game, Capricorn. This week try to approach life with a strong sense of humor, a willingness to play fairly with others and your ambitions clear in your mind. You can have what you want but not without a lighter heart and flexible attitude.

AQUARIUS

Jan. 20-Feb. 18

Be careful Aquarius, ‘cause you might just get what you’re going for. Do you actually want what you’re working so hard to get? Will it make you happy and improve your life? Things are about to change and your job is to create a world that you want to be in, instead of just pursing one in which you “win”.

PISCES

Feb. 19-March 20

Be in touch with what you feel to aid in laying the foundation for happiness to flow in your life. This week you might have to make extra effort to check in with yourself so that you aren’t being a “Yes Man”. Going with the flow is awesome, but you need to have a way to slow things down or change course, too.

ARIES

March 21-April 19

As cheesy as it sounds, love eases the path you’re on. It’s the healing salve that soothes all wounds. The power of kindness and compassion will trump your troubles if you yield it. Try to accept folks for where they’re at and show them the same generosity that you’d want. Don’t take differences as an affront this week.

TAURUS

April 20-May 20

There’s no hope if you try to go it all alone, you need others to support you and keep you in line when need be. Lay a foundation that you can build success upon, Taurus. Watch out for ways that you alienate others this week and develop a better gauge of how much sharing you can do in a healthy way.

GEMINI

May 21-June 21

Compassion and nurturance are the best tools at your disposal this week, Twin Star. The heart wants what it wants! Strive to satisfy your emotional needs as long as you can do so without betraying any promises you’ve made to yourself or anyone else. Love yourself in equal parts to how you love others.

CANCER

June 22-July 22

People are wonderful and will sometimes give you presents. This holiday week of (forced) cheer you can’t avoid them, but you may find yourself wanting to. Don’t say “no” to people, say “yes” to yourself! Give what you can and nothing more, Cancer. Take time for yourself so you can truly show up for others.

LEO

July 23-Aug. 22

Stay in the present this week. You can’t know all the answers, and that sucks when you are on a quest to decide what to bet your heart on. You don’t know what the future will hold, but you can commit to staying on track for the time being.  Keep steady on your chosen course and let the future reveal itself.

VIRGO

Aug. 23-Sept. 22

Don’t you wish that life could be smooth sailing this week? Sadly it’s not, and you may need to take inspiration from this seafaring advise- when you get motion sickness, never focus on something too close too you; pick a far away point and focus your vision on that. It’ll help you to tolerate turbulent waters.

LIBRA

Sept. 23-Oct. 22

Worry and fear can inspire “practical” thinking, but not the healthiest choices. This week you should avoid the temptation to justify your actions with the reasoning of your scarcity issues, Libra. Things are not perfect and goodness is not guaranteed, but you should still go for gold with all your heart.

SCORPIO

Oct. 23-Nov. 21

A life lived in freedom is a pleasure to live. Don’t abuse your liberties, Scorpio! Become free from compulsions and self-destructive ways this week. Yield your autonomy so as to make you healthy and happy instead of comfortable yet stuck. It’ll take a lot of work, but it’s wholly worth it.

SAGITTARIUS

Nov. 22-Dec. 21

If you don’t take responsibility for what you need how do you ever hope to get it and hold on to it? Be accountable for setting limits and clearing up miscommunications with others this week. Things might need to get complicated for a while if you are going to accommodate your needs in concert with others’.

CAPRICORN

Dec. 22-Jan. 19

You don’t know what’s ahead, and it may be better or worse than where you’re at now, but it sure as anything won’t be the same. This week you are meant to pour your very best in the things you are sure of; the folks you love, the savings account you need for your future and the goodness of your health.

AQUARIUS

Jan. 20-Feb. 18

All your worries are valid, Aquarius. The danger is that you will focus on the question “what is right?” instead of “what is right for me?” Strive to choose what you believe in instead of what you think you’re supposed tso that you don’t find yourself resenting your actions that were inspired by fear or obligation.

PISCES

Feb. 19-March 20

It’s hard to accept the differences between you and the people you love. When you’re used to being in agreement with someone it’s hella confusing to all of a sudden not get where they’re coming from. This week you need to trust in the love that binds you and not get disheartened by the details.
