Horoscopes

By Daria Carrothers (she/her)

Leo (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You are blessed with lively, loving friends surrounding you, Leo, however they can’t always be the beams that support your sense of self. Challenges around feeling insecure and generally not good enough may pop up. Let this serve as a reminder that you can be both the observer and the performer. The practice of noticing and applauding the radiant nature with which you perform your daily tasks, from getting dressed to simply making a satisfying meal, will benefit you greatly at this time.

Look after yourself by:

Examining what you do well in the world, and patting yourself on the back for it.

Virgo (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Exiting your season you are recharged, Virgo, with a new spark igniting your inner strength. You are entering a period of focus, dedicated to renewed vision – this could be towards your relationships, career, or a general outlook on life. The past month has clicked the reset button, putting you back on track with a fresh outlook for the remainder of the year.

Look after yourself by:

Continuing to stride forward, knowing you have the power to accomplish what you’ve envisioned.

Libra (Sep 23 – Oct 23)

Happy Solar return, Libra! The Spring ​equinox brings about a more sociable energy with abundance flowing towards you. Your season creates a supportive atmosphere for your love life and your artistic pursuit, just watch out for over-indulging and over-spending. Be smart about your excess, and enjoy!

Look after yourself by:

Celebrating well, and holding gratitude for the people who celebrate with you!

Scorpio (Oct 24 – Nov 21)

Insecurities might be showing their face at this time, leading to feelings of jealousy and resentment. Stemming from a fear of loss, there is a natural instinct for you to hold onto and fixate on these negative energies bubbling to the surface. The saying “as above, so below” is particularly relevant, meaning that fixating on feelings will leave you trapped in an endless loop.

Look after yourself by:

Welcoming a new perspective into the equation.

Sagittarius (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

It is a powerful time to reconnect with the past, Sagittarius. You may rediscover an old dream or wish you once had, bringing forward transformative insights. This Libra season brings forth a multitude of moments to acknowledge your history and release the past that has kept you trapped for the past few months.

Look after yourself by:

Giving way to the past, and releasing it to allow better things to come forward.

Capricorn (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Going inwards along the path towards the self has brought you great reward lately, but your gaze inwards has perhaps led to a feeling of disconnection from those around you. A community underpins individual success, don’t let thoughtless actions isolate you from those who could help you in the future.

Look after yourself by:

Letting go of your drive towards individualism, as your community is not your competition.

Aquarius (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Trust and intimacy are huge themes in the coming weeks. It’s a wonderful time to be reflective of your relationships and how these themes are mirrored in them. You are a master analyst, but how often do you actively practice the simple act of self trust? In the coming weeks, set aside a day and without a specific plan, take yourself out somewhere. No matter the destination you end up at, there will be a renewed sense of comfort within yourself that you have been longing for.

Look after yourself by:

Refilling your sense of self trust, by trusting that it will bleed over into your relationships.

Pisces (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You tend to approach life with a “sit back and let things come to you” attitude, which does typically work. However, this period is calling you to try your hand at taking on an instigator role more frequently in daily life. Opportunities are opening up for you, but you have to run to catch them before they pass you by. Intuition is a great gift of yours, Pisces, as long as you choose to follow it.

Look after yourself by:

Running in the direction you feel called to. If you move with a slow pace it will overtake you.

Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Your focus on fulfilling your emotional needs, Aries, will harbour a sense of deep respect with those around you. When you are able to pour from a full cup, it has restorative properties for your relationships. Don’t let the perception that putting yourself first is a selfish act influence your actions. You are no benefit to anyone when you’re downtrodden.

Look after yourself by:

Making sure your needs are met first before offering assistance.

Taurus (Apr 20 – May 20)

A sense of disconnect may surface during this time, creating uncertainty within your partnerships and wider community. Lean into this feeling, pursue your favourite methods of selfcare – a luxurious candle lit bath with your favourite book or journal should do the trick. Reflect on how you got here, remain conscious to the outer world – reconnection will be sought before the month closes.

Look after yourself by:

Being gentle with yourself, and letting your self care practices guide you back on track.

Gemini (May 21 – Jun 20)

During this time your imaginative faculties get a boost. You are being encouraged to tap into more sensitive and intuitive energies. There is a push to pursue creative ventures, whether that be starting a totally new project or returning to something you put on the back burner. Having fine tuned focus towards a creative goal could see financial payoff if you stick with it.

Look after yourself by:

Connecting with your intuitive creativity and seeing the benefits radiate through various aspects of your life.

Cancer (Jun 21 – Jul 22)

There could be some illusionary narratives being pushed your way, Cancer, either from your internal world or the external world. Being represented by the slow moving crab, as always the best approach is to wait before making any decisions on what these narratives are presenting. Things will become clearer as you let them unfold before you.

Look after yourself by:

Remaining slow and grounded on your path as clouding illusions pass you by.
