All Signs

Those who seek truth and justice are going to have to ride out a lot of resistance this month. It’ll take a substantial amount of energy to keep an open heart and to feel out into the collective with compassion and grace. Think of this act like the turbulence a space shuttle experiences re-entering the atmosphere. At Mach 25 a space shuttle deals with extreme pressures and must enter at exactly the right angle, or it either burns up or bounces off the atmosphere and back into space. Any hardships or hurdles you are currently facing are going to kind of feel the same way. You’ll have to keep going with intention and trust the process in order to overcome the bumpy ride of your inner mesosphere to reach the safe zone of your troposphere where you’ll finally be able to glide to a safe landing. The important thing is to believe in yourself and keep going. What you seek is worth the process.

Aries: Mar. 21 to Apr. 19

You might think you’re all alone and that you can’t trust anyone, but nothing could be further from the truth. You’re used to being independent, and that’s understandable, but the sorrow that is threatening to derail you needs to be shared in order to heal and dissipate. Through the act of communicating your woes, you’ll find that others have similar experiences and can empathize and maybe even offer perspectives that have not yet occurred to you. Besides, keeping all that energy pent up inside will only lead to self-sabotage in one form or another. Releasing it allows you to refresh, renew, and find a way forward. So seek out kindred spirit and find safe spaces (even if it’s just with a therapist) to share what’s going on inside. Trust me. You’ll be glad you did.

Taurus: Apr. 20 to May 20

You’re done. Done with people telling you no. Done with having to fight against the tide. Done with keeping yourself small and catering to the comfort of others. So give yourself permission to truly feel the end of this cycle. You deserve to be bold, strong and confident. You deserve to live a life that makes you happy and feels in alignment with your soul or Source. It might help you to conduct a little ceremony. Write down everything you are “done” with and burn it or toss it into the ocean. This will help your mind come into alignment with the knowing of your body and give you the mental and emotional freedom to move forward with a renewed vision. You don’t owe anyone who doesn’t feed your soul.

Gemini: May 21 to Jun. 20

Change is on the horizon, my friend. All that hard work and all those late nights are finally going to pay off. There is just one more task ahead of you and it will require you to bring all aspects of yourself into balance. Light/dark, strength/weakness, logic/emotion, and masculine/feminine. Fully acknowledge that you tend switch from one personality to the next without noticing that it’s happening, and deepen your awareness of these transitions. When you feel emotionally overwhelmed, try to remember that you also carry deep logic within you. When you don’t know if you have the strength to keep going, remember that you are also powerful and that maybe you just need to rest for now. You are a multifaceted being, so embrace everything that you are so you can greet the impending change from a place of wholeness, strength, and integrity.

Cancer: Jun. 21 to Jul. 22

Outward doing is going to be a bit of a struggle this month, dear Cancer. You’ll need to linger in bed a little longer, find time alone, take time in nature, and generally allow your body and mind to recharge. This is by design, so I invite you to embrace this cocooning rather than pushing against it. Time in silence and reflection will help you remember who you are and what you want from life. It will reconnect you with your innermost desires and remind you of the things that matter most. You are a being that is deeply connected to the rhythms of nature, whether you are aware of it or not, and the onset of autumn sees you naturally feeling the desire to nest. Don’t worry about or overthink this process. The need to get busy will return soon enough, so enjoy this reprieve while you can.

Leo: Jul. 23 to Aug. 22

Family traditions and values are going to feel especially important throughout October, dear Leo. Especially your place within your family or community. As the days pass, you’ll find yourself reflecting on the big picture and asking yourself the big questions. It’s not enough for you to keep going with business as usual (kids, school, work, dinner, laundry) and simply going through the motions of your day-to-day. You want to pass along values, stories, skills and wisdom. You want to see the young ones in your life prepared to take on the world with strength and integrity. Embrace this inner calling with all of your heart. Just remember that each individual has their own path and that sometimes people need to make mistakes to learn the lesson. Pass along your knowledge, but free yourself of any specific outcome. Simply plant the seeds.

Virgo: Aug. 23 to Sept. 22

Follow your feet. Where do you want to wander? Where would you like to explore? It’s okay to let go of the responsibilities of the home for a while and find out what lies just beyond the horizon. In fact, going on a trip, or taking weekend jaunts around the countryside are bound to fill your cup in ways you haven’t anticipated. You’re craving a reset and a refresh of your perspective, goals, and intentions. So use this month to wipe away mental cobwebs through adventure and play. As an added bonus, you’ll find new solutions to problems that may have been plaguing you for quite a while. Note: don’t overthink it. Let spontaneity and your feet be your guide.

Libra: Sept. 23 to Oct. 22

Make use of all your innate Libran abilities to bring about balance this month, my friend. You’re slipping down a slope toward one extreme or another, and all the ignored parts of you are crying out to be heard. So ask yourself: How’s my body? How’s my mental health? How’s my heart space? What do I need more of? What do I need less of? Remember, you don’t actually want to be flat or monotone. You are a multidimensional being for whom balance means being aware of ALL sides of the picture/story/truth. There are hidden parts of your personality and consciousness that want to come back into play, so cultivate some inner exploration and reconnect to yourself with open eyes and open ears.

Scorpio: Oct. 23 to Nov. 21

Healing wants to take place, but it can only happen if you are ready to crack out of your shell/comfort zone and embrace where you need to grow. Your heart longs for a soothing balm to calm the turmoil, anger, and pain. Good. Do something with that intensity. Dive in and love yourself fiercely. What patterns, beliefs, and behaviours need to change in order for you to live the life your heart longs for? Can you summon the courage to rise from the ashes and redefine yourself? No matter what you are facing, what hill you are afraid to climb, remember that you’ve got this. All you have to do is surrender to change. To let go of the self-pity and see that everything you have gone through has been about helping you become the best and most vibrant version of yourself.

Sagittarius: Nov. 22 to Dec. 21

Love is in the stars, my friend! Your heart is overflowing and you’re in a mushy gushy state of being. This is wonderful. Whether you’ve met a new love interest, made a new friend, found a new life calling, or stumbled upon a breathtaking view, let your heart crack open and be wrapped gently in the healing that wants to take place. Remember that true love is also about listening, about being present for the other and honoring them for all that they are. Everyone has their quirks, faults, and past mistakes. But we can still love them and care for them in their entirety. You are also worthy of this kind of love. To be seen for who you are and not what others want you to be. I invite you to hold yourself, and whoever/whatever it is that your falling in love with, with kindness, compassion and sacredness.

Capricorn: Dec. 22 to Jan. 19

Things are going to start to come back into harmony, Capricorn. This month focus on the people and causes that you feel the most aligned with; what feels right, makes the most sense, and has the most long-term gain for you and the other party. Practice positive self-talk. Write things down. Talk it out with an objective listener. The pieces are starting to fall back into place, but you must be an active participant in the process. Harmony will truly settle in once you’ve realigned with what matters, and what you want NOW. Another positive side effect of this work will be unresolved issues suddenly find a clear and harmonious path toward resolution.

Aquarius: Jan. 20 to Feb. 18

You’re of a mind to reassess your life, Aquarius. You won’t feel too motivated to be busy or having to interact with other people. Instead, you’ll feel more introspective. Perhaps you’ll create a vision board, perhaps you’ll be drawn to making lists, perhaps you’ll find yourself job hunting or looking at schooling. All that really matters is that you are taking a second look at your life and asking yourself if you’re happy and what direction you should go in to bring about happiness and contentment. Know that this is as much an exercise of the heart as it is logical deduction. It shouldn’t just make sense on paper, it should also feel right. So let yourself rest and reflect. And it might be helpful to share your thought process with trusted loved ones who can listen and provide constructive feedback.

Pisces: Feb. 19 to Mar. 20

Your big lesson right now is to let go of comparing yourself to everyone else. This is why you feel so tired and uninspired. You keep thinking you need to “up your game” and do what everyone else is doing. This belief is only dulling your shine and leaving you feeling despondent. You might have to sit with this feeling a little longer, but eventually you’ll decide to break free and do your own thing. In the meantime, you might consider asking yourself why you feel this way. Why do you feel inadequate? Why do you hold yourself separate or diminish your abilities and sense of wonder? It’s time to own your voice and your vision. Stay grounded in your unique perspective of the world, regardless of whether anyone understands or not. The world needs all the whimsy, feeling, and deep caring it can get.
