Leo
July 23 - August 22
Your birthday month is finally in full gear! This means that you get to celebrate yourself (as you always do) — but this time you’re stepping away from the limelight and wanting a low key party. Being that you’ve been feeling less like the bold lion that you are, it’s important to do things that lift you up. Spend time with friends who bring a smile to your face and engage in activities that bring out your fiery bravado. Within days you’ll begin to act like your sparky old self. More than anything, it's all about the company you keep.

Virgo
August 23 - September 22
Secrets can hurt others when they come out. The caveat (because there always is one in these situations) is that you’re being put in a position where you can either lie or tell the truth to your BFF. Rather than choosing the first option, you want to be upfront — even though spilling the tea will create issues. Your bestie shouldn’t be mad at the messenger and instead be grateful that you’re honest. Being a good friend means being loyal and direct with the person you care about no matter the consequences, because it’s the right thing to do.
Libra
September 23 - October 22
Although you rarely let your emotions get the better of you, this week they’re coming out full throttle. You're feeling disappointment in your love life due to some unexpected romantic news. Your boo/crush is wanting to slow down the momentum that's been building, causing you to feel as though they’re trying to end the situationship. They’re not and they won’t. Truth be told, lately you’ve both been joined at the hip and could use a little space. Don’t dream it’s over. Give them time alone to miss you — which they will.

Scorpio
October 23 - November 21
Real talk: You’re not in the mood to argue and have conflict, but it seems as though everyone around you is piling on the drama in your life. Instead of confronting others, put the negativity on ice. You don’t need to deal with those vibes — especially when you’re trying to create a tranquil space for yourself. When people come at you, leave them on “read” and implement self-care into your day. It’s your duty to protect your energy.
Sagittarius
November 22 - December 21
Your flirty personality will make your crush full of jealousy. A comment on social media that you wrote is going to get the attention of your boo. Unfortunately, it’ll get them riled up and demanding answers. The only way to resolve this matter is to be as open as possible. Stick to the facts and let them know you’re committed to them but need autonomy in relationships. You could strike a middle ground in the partnership that works for you both. It requires total sincerity and utter trust.

Capricorn
December 22 - January 19
You’re stronger than ever and ready to take on the world. As long as you practice your daily affirmations and bring positivity into your life, the sentiment will remain at a high throughout the week and you’ll walk with swagger. You are at peak confidence, which is why you’re feeling yourself. Remember not to get so smug that you alienate your squad. Yes, it’s great to be self-assured — but not if you think that you’re above everyone else due to an inflated ego. We are all humans walking on earth together and striving for happiness. Keep yourself in check.

Aquarius
January 20 - February 18
You’re great at setting clear boundaries for others, but when it comes to yourself, there are many moments in which you throw your views out the window. The lesson you are learning this week is that it’s important to treat others the way you wish to be treated. Give others respect and don’t ambush them. Acknowledging and accepting the necessary parameters needed to achieve a healthy relationship will help it to last through time. Pay attention to your actions and recognize their limitations that are essential to their wellbeing. Act in accordance with the standards in place.
Pisces
February 19 - March 20
Time to face facts, Pisces. You need a vacation from your vacation. The days you’ve spent with your family or squad have emotionally drained you. It’s not that you didn’t have a good time, but the constant bickering had an effect on you. Being caught in the middle of disagreements can be tough when dealing with different personalities and people. Since you swim away from conflict, it’s not easy having to deal. When you get home, allow yourself to take a few days to chill and restore your energy. The more TLC you give to yourself, the better you’ll feel.
Aries
March 21 - April 19
A former fling is trying to cozy up with you. Before you surrender and respond to their sweet messages, decide what you want from reconnecting with them. If you want to reignite the flame, then you should prepare yourself to get deep. But, if you’re looking for closure, it might be hard for them to give you since they want to keep the relationship going. You have the power to dictate the flow of this situation, which is why you should try to make wise decisions before your head and heart get lost in the clouds and in love.
Taurus
April 20 - May 20
PSA: This week brings out a lot of repressed sentiments. A triggering moment causes you to let all your feelings out. Although you’ll be going through the motions, you shouldn’t rush the process of healing. You’ll emotionally thrive in time. Give yourself a big hug and pat on the back. Just knowing that you’re doing the best you can at this moment is going to help you get through the week. If you need some love or a shoulder to cry on, your crew is going to be by your side drying your tears. That’s what friends are for.
Gemini
May 21 - June 20
Let the games begin! You love a good puzzle, especially if it’s a real life mystery. This week, you’re figuring out the motives of your crush. At times they’re aloof and then they’re 100% invested in the relationship. It’s the moments that they are MIA that are bothering you. And, since your Mercurial mind likes a challenge, you’d rather figure out the riddle yourself instead of asking them point blank. The answers won’t lead to any interesting or damaging information. It’ll show you that you don’t fully trust them or yourself — opening up a whole new bag of worms.
Cancer
June 21 - July 22
You’re finding your voice and speaking up this week. No one can stand in the way of letting your sentiments and thoughts be known. Truthfully, you’re over being and feeling as though others are taking your kindness for granted. You deserve to be treated with gratitude and appreciation. If this means you have to be assertive — so be it. Your emotions should always be heard and seen. If your nearest and dearest have a problem with it, then they shouldn’t have poked the bear (we mean crab) in the first place. Stand in your power, Cancer. You got this!
