The solar eclipse may activate insecurity and fear in you. Your assignment is to engage with those feelings in the healthiest ways you know how instead of fixating on the trigger. Now, of course, you may need to deal with situations directly and swiftly—but during eclipse season, the work is to navigate your emotions with strength, empathy and grace. Make sure you are showing that to yourself and others, especially in messy or complicated situations, Taurus.

You may be sad this week, and you're not alone: solar eclipses kick up lots of emotions. The better connected you are to your values, the easier it will be to navigate what might be some thorny situations activated in your life, and especially your relationships. Don't let your fears or other people derail you from showing up in ways that reflect your wisest and kindest parts, Twin Star.

This week's solar eclipse is going to not just rattle you, but the people around you as well. This is likely to trigger some uncomfortable interactions with other people. Instead of giving into your anxieties, do your best to get grounded. There are things you can do to nurture your emotional needs, so that you can navigate through your relationships with others with as much integrity and compassion as possible. Choose that path, Moonchild.

There will be a solar eclipse in your sign on August 12: it marks an important time for your emotional welfare, your personal life and your innermost psyche. You are likely to feel blocked as you come up against very real limitations and frustrations in your life. Your reactions—and your response to those reactions—are not the things you are reacting to themselves. Do your best to act from that brave and loving place inside of you instead of your strongest fears and loudest impulses this week, Leo.

The eclipse season has likely got you in a pretty anxious state: you feel like things just don't make sense. Honestly, they don't—but they also don't have to make sense. Sometimes emotions contradict circumstances, facts or expectations. While it can be confusing, that's the nature of messy and complicated feelings. Create space to reflect on what you're feeling and how you are emotionally showing up instead of analyzing the problem and trying to get ahead of it this week, Virgo.

The eclipse, in conjunction with other major transits occurring this week, may find you ruminating on your fears. The best thing for you to do is to stay grounded so that you can recognize the difference between a negative obsession and an insight. While you may not be able to stop yourself from fixating, you can commit to identifying whether there's any use or value to your thought process. Don't let your fears take over when what is actually needed is greater empathy for yourself and others, Libra.

It's unsurprising that things feel important this week, given that we are in eclipse season. Your assignment is to meet each moment with a commitment to your values. This may sound heavy, but how you engage with both your inner and outer world will have meaningful consequences for you over the next six months. Do your best to act in ways that reflect your truth so you can feel good about your conduct regardless of what happens down the line, Scorpio.

Anxiety is difficult to sit with. You may find yourself looking for blame or explanations as to why you feel the way you do, instead of prioritizing self-care. This week's eclipse may trigger defensiveness inside of you as an anxiety response, but I promise: that is not going to help. Meet the moment with care and deal with the how and why of your situation when you're feeling more stable. This is one of those times when you really need to pace yourself, Sagittarius.

It's important that you act in ways that honour what you are capable of instead of allowing your pride or insecurities to drive you. You will do best to move at the pace of your emotional capacity this week instead of powering through things. What this week's solar eclipse means, among other things, is that what you do this week—and the emotional reasons why—will have long-term consequences on your life. So take your time, Capricorn.

This week's eclipse is likely to kick up a lot inside of you that is reflected in your relationships, one way or another. How you negotiate your emotions is not always an easy thing to assess, especially when you're feeling particularly activated around them, in the moment. You cannot know what the future holds; what you have, Aquarius, is this moment. Do your best to act in ways that reflect your values and the contents of your heart, especially when things are confusing or uncertain.

This week's eclipse has got you even more sensitive than usual. It's incredibly important that you do what you can to get grounded and to tap into your agency. If you know that you're sensitive to eating dairy, don't eat it! Similarly, if you know that a particular person makes you feel poorly, you have choices in how or whether you spend time with them. Exercise your right to healthy boundaries, even if you don't know what will happen as a result. All you can control is what you do, Pisces.
