As the expression goes, "history may not repeat, but it rhymes." This week you're being tasked with the responsibility of learning from your own past, Taurus. While the situation that you're in now may be different than things that have happened before, the bottom line is that if you don't own your part and explore the themes playing out, you will find yourself in the same position you've been in before. That is likely to make you feel frustrated with both yourself and others.

It's really hard to let go of control when you are trying to make changes in your life, but it is the act of gripping your ambitions too tightly that will get in your way and slow down your progress. This week you are being challenged to stay present in the moment and explore the possibilities that exist both inside of you and in your situation. If you are able to meet the moment with emotional intelligence instead of too many ideas and plans, you will find yourself in the best possible position this week, Twin Star.

Defensiveness and assertion are really different things on the inside. Ask yourself if the struggle that you're engaged in actually deserves your energy, Moonchild. This is a bad time to obsessively fixate on things you don't want or don't like because not only will it not change anything, but it will also steal your precious energy from you. Once you determine that something is wrong or not working, your next step is not to justify and defend that awareness, but instead to identify what the next best steps are, given the realities of your situation. 

Pluto is being pushy this week and it's likely to have you in a pretty activated state. You're dealing with some deep emotional patterns and how you relate to feeling threatened and it's likely to be pretty uncomfortable. This isn't the time for you to give in to your anxiety and projections or to look outside of yourself for quick fixes or for someone to gas you up. Do your best to slow down, get grounded, and reflect on how you've engaged with these patterns inside of you in the past, making sure to learn from what has and hasn't worked, Leo.

If the devil is in the details then this week, then it's important that you tap into the big picture. You're being challenged not just to address the big picture of things in your life, but to do so in a way that reflects your emotional capacity, needs, and circumstances. This is not a good time for you to push yourself to do everything, all at once, but instead to explore what's possible at this moment in an emotionally healthy way. Pace yourself, Virgo.

This week, your assignment is to hang out in reflection instead of rushing to get out the answers. I know, it's annoying! Things are developing in meaningful ways, even if they feel like they're moving slowly. If you can listen to your heart and honor your emotions, you will find that the answers that you're seeking are not as far from you as it may seem. If you can't answer the question, “what do I want my life/this situation to feel like?” make it your priority, Libra.

As uncomfortable as it is to hang out in the present and feel your vulnerability, if you don't do it you run the risk of getting stuck longing for the past. There is no value in chasing negative fixations or fantasies of what could be when what the present moment needs from you is a willingness to identify what needs doing so that you can find the next best steps. This week the things that aren't working for you are pointing you towards what needs the most attention, patience, and care, Scorpio.

If you have been dealing with power struggles – either in your relationships, or in your own thinking, this week is likely to find you feeling pretty depleted and annoyed by it all, Sagittarius. Instead of trying to power through, do what you need to do to tap into your intuition. You have clarity based on data – collected in both linear and non-linear ways. Make sure that you're not just collecting ideas and notions, but actually synthesizing that information into something that can make sense, Sagittarius.

As you change, you have the opportunity to leave behind old parts of yourself that you have long outgrown. While this is a great idea, it also is pretty scary to do. Not only do you have to face the uncertainty inherent to change, but also the people close to you and their feelings on the matter. Embrace the path of your evolution, even as it takes you down some twists and turns. Make sure to communicate honestly and plainly with others this week, Capricorn.

As you navigate your mixed emotions, it's important that you check your ego, Aquarius. This week you run the risk of being defensive and allowing your strongest impulses and feelings to guide you even when they are not your wisest instincts. Just because you can doesn't mean you should, and when you allow fear and insecurity to drive you it's hard to like where you end up. This isn't the time for adding more to your plate. Deal with overwhelm with patience this week.

If you're feeling particularly sad or demoralized this week, don't worry, things are unlikely to be as bad as it feels right now. You are likely dealing with the combination of burnout and a sense of pressure to move through it, whether that pressure is real or not. This is a valuable time for you to be mindful about the narratives that you are attached to and the expectations that you have of yourself and others. Be brave enough to evolve how you hold yourself up, Pisces.
