BY KATIE MILLARD ILLUSTRATIONS BY GRACE SUBLETT

PISCES FEB 20 - MAR 20

Get outside, Pisces. Your month just ended, and it was all about a mental health reset. As spring finally enters the scene, take advantage of the self-reflection you have indulged and the nicer, warm weather. Make it a goal to spend time outside every day — unless it is pouring then you are fine, promise — and feel yourself grow with the plants on the ground.

Reconnecting with nature will further the relaxing self-journey you began during your season, allow you to take what you learned about your mental health, and use Aries’ energy to start reaching new goals. Going outside and enjoying the springtime will do you wonders and further your journey of selfimprovement. The stars are just stars and cannot tell us anything – April fools! The stars have plenty to say this spring, so take a peek at your horoscope here

THIS MONTH’S SIGN

ARIES MAR 21 - APR 19 This is your peak, Aries. Your sign is the beginning of the zodiac year, and during this time both the sun and the new moon are in your sign. Your energy will be electric this month as you take hold of the flood of chances headed your way. A surprise invitation may surface for you, and you should seize it as a positive opportunity. People will flock to your enthusiasm and will look to you as a leader. Say yes to changes, chances, and anything that feels like a positive new start. Your infectious energy attracts great things, so say yes to even the smallest opportunity.

TAURUS APR 20 - MAY 20

Let’s get to work, Taurus. It is nearly your season, so before you get to steal the spotlight, use the start of the new zodiac year to get in order. Treat this as a chance to rejuvenate your resolutions for 2022 and to commit to that routine you have been working on sticking to. Your natural grounded, hardworking nature pairs perfectly with the moon and sun right now, allowing you to capitalize on the energetic courage Aries brings to your natural passion. This makes it the perfect time to knock those big items off your checklist and double down on creating a routine that works for you.

This month, Gemini, you will be lucky in love. Your versatility pairs wonderfully with Aries season’s youthful energy, and you will tap into a romantic windfall. Your adaptable personality makes you intriguing to everyone you meet and love will especially be in the spring air for you. Be careful, however, as to not lead anyone on. Positive attention can be addictive, but those who are on the other end of these spring flings can catch real feelings. Have fun and enjoy this time, but also be cognizant of everyone else involved. Whatever happens, it is sure to be an eventful, exciting time.

Be prepared to stand up for yourself this month, Cancer. With your ruler, the moon, in Aries, your usually calm nature will take a back seat. While your naturally nurturing and often non-confrontational demeanor suits you well, you occasionally let others’ reactions overpower your own. You may find yourself in some unideal situations, but during this time you will allow yourself to take up some more space and stand up for yourself. Voice your feelings and advocate for yourself and the things you want. No one else can take a stand consistently for you, so learn from the Aries energy and assert yourself.

GEMINI MAY 21 - JUN 20

CANCER JUN 21 - JUL 22

LEO JUL 23 - AUG 22

Spend some time alone, Leo. Your natural infectious energy shines constantly, and it is easy to tell you are ruled by the sun. However, your star personality and magnetism can be draining when accompanied by the flocks of problems thrust on you. Because you are someone people are drawn to, you often end up taking on the burdens of many others on top of your own.

Take some time off this month.

You cannot help anyone else if you are drained, so allow yourself the opportunity to say no. Being surrounded by people also means you rarely get time to connect with yourself. Take time alone and you will be able to better serve yourself and everyone around you.

A new friend is heading your way, Scorpio. Your ruling planet is Mars, which is currently in Aquarius. The moon is sextile Mars, which is a fancy way of the stars telling you that you will have a lot of courage, activity, and resourcefulness. This will manifest in a new close friend entering your life. You naturally hold your cards close to your chest, but this spurt of bravery will encourage you to branch out a little and open up to someone new. Those who are truly important to you are ride-ordie friendships, and you will make another one soon. Look out for interesting new people, and allow this courage to deepen your trust. The person of a lifetime is waiting for you to let them in.

Try something new, Virgo. Both the sun and moon are in Aries, the beginning of the zodiac year and the sign of impulsivity, independence, passion, and courage. You like to weigh your options and stick to the approved script, but you should take the opportunity Aries season brings to branch out. Now is the perfect time to use your organizational skills to embark on a new project or goal. Your dedication paired with the excitement of the season is sure to produce something to be proud of, so long as you allow yourself the chance. Explore new options, Virgo, and you will be better for it.

Live passionately, Sagittarius. As a fellow fire sign with an impulsive nature, the traits that come naturally to you are often heightened during Aries season. You will feel an exceptional pull toward your adventurous side, and this will lead you to wonderful new experiences. However, it may also spark a want to run to better things when something gets difficult – persevere, Sagittarius. Part of living passionately and independently means staying passionate about something, even when it gets difficult. Put in the work and you are sure to have a great month, as Aries season heightens your excitement and enthusiasm.

Now is the time to act, Libra. As a fellow cardinal sign, the moon and sun in Aries is tapping into your natural affinity for action, creativity, and decisiveness. If you have been pondering a question for a while, it is time to go with your gut. You want things to be fair for everyone, which is wonderfully admirable, but not always possible. Trust your instincts and make a call. Waiting to decide can complicate your choice and leave anyone affected stuck in limbo as you choose. Embrace the active energy you will feel and you are sure to make the right choices.

Embrace inner peace this month, Capricorn. You tend to work hard and give a lot of yourself, but after a while that can drain you. Give yourself some time to relax. If you live by your planner, pencil in a specific time you can take off and dedicate to self-care. Plan for an afternoon or evening to give to yourself: have a spa night. Even just a simple daily walk can do wonders for you. Yes, working is important, but if you burn out you cannot do anything. Take some preventative relaxation time and you are sure to be more successful.

VIRGO AUG 23 - SEPT 22

SCORPIO OCT 23 - NOV 21 SAGITTARIUS NOV 22- DEC 21

LIBRA SEPT 23- OCT 22

CAPRICORN DEC 22 - JAN 19

AQUARIUS Collaboration will be your savior this month, Aquarius. Saturn is in your sign, which JAN 20 - FEB 18 indicates a new perspective on community, friendship, and socializing. If you are offered a chance to work with others, whether it is hanging out with friends, a group project, or collaborating with a coworker, take it. While you enjoy your independence, it can leave you leaning away from taking advantage of others’ skills and talents. Recognize where people can supplement your weaknesses with their strengths, and look for opportunities to connect and work in tandem. Collaborating will give you the best outcomes, and you may learn something new.
