Standing up for yourself when it goes directly against things you’ve said or done in the past doesn’t always feel good, stargazer. But that makes it no less important. Keep an open mind.

Aries: March 21 – April 19
The tense square between Mars retrograde and Eris in Cancer and your celestial domain continues. Paired with the same challenging alignment between Eris and Mercury, all cosmic signs point to a dire need to brainstorm new solutions around the problems you’re facing. Your old tricks and techniques clearly aren’t working the way they used to, Aries, and that’s okay.

Venus flies through a brief but potent trine with the waning crescent Moon in Pisces and Scorpio, respectively.

Gemini: May 21 – June 20
The square between your ruling planet, Mercury, and Eris increases the potential for conflict, particularly when it comes to pushing back against the status quo. The right people will never fault you for doing things to better your well-being, Gemini. If they’re reluctant to see you thrive, then maybe it’s time to consider whether it’s worth keeping them around.

Cancer: June 21 – July 22
Your ruling celestial body, the waning crescent Moon, forms a fleeting but powerful trine with Venus in Pisces. Paired with the Moon’s placement in Scorpio, the stars seem to be tuning your intuition into the power flow of your relationships so that you can improve upon the existing dynamics. But remember: this requires brutal honesty of others and yourself, Cancer.

Leo: July 23 – August 22
The opposition between the Sun and Mars retrograde finally wanes as your ruling celestial body continues its conjunction with Pluto in Aquarius. You’ve had time to marinate in your feelings, Leo. But you can’t keep licking your wounds forever. It’s time to dust yourself off and get back out there. What’s one minor setback in the long journey that is your life?

Virgo: August 23 – September 22
Mercury’s square with Eris outlines the problems that your ruling planet’s trine with Uranus retrograde promises to fix. Discovering that an old belief, habit, or behavior is actually toxic or has outgrown you can be unsettling at first. The stars urge you to keep in mind that familiarity can often breed more contempt than comfort. Lean into this change.

Libra: September 23 – October 22
Your ruling planet, Venus, forms a harmonious trine with the waning crescent Moon in Pisces and Scorpio. Two water sign placements heighten emotional awareness a bit more than your air-ruled self is typically comfortable with. But this is no time to stick your head in the sand and ignore your feelings, Libra. The truth can and will always outrun you.

Scorpio: October 23 – November 21
The waning crescent Moon and Venus form a fleeting but potent trine in your celestial domain and Pisces, respectively. This cosmic alignment suggests a greater awareness of emotional connections and power dynamics. If there are problem areas in your relationship, now would be an ideal time to start looking for potential solutions. They won’t appear on their own.

Sagittarius: November 22 – December 21
The trine between Jupiter retrograde and Makemake retrograde continues in Gemini and Libra. Under this alignment, the importance of self-care increases. The environment you foster within your own mind is just as important as the environment you foster to please and impress others externally. Find the courage to love yourself radically, and the right people will naturally flock to you.

Capricorn: December 22 – January 19
Mercury continues to influence your cosmic forecast as it forms two notable alignments under your celestial domain. Its square with Eris highlights traditions and habits that could use some revisiting. Mercury’s trine with Uranus retrograde brings up the rear, pushing you to find the confidence to innovate and explore new ways of doing things. The old approach isn’t always the best approach.

Aquarius: January 20 – February 18
The trine between your ruling planet, Uranus retrograde, and Mercury in Taurus and Capricorn invites you to find new ways to achieve your goals. Success is not linear, and no two paths to prosperity are the same. Instead of obsessively comparing the shape and scope of your journey to someone else’s, start narrowing your focus. You only have your road to navigate.

Pisces: February 19 – March 20
Venus and Mars retrograde begin to form an auspicious trine in your celestial domain and Cancer, increasing emotional awareness and sensitivity. This is especially helpful as Mars retrograde throws wrenches in our plans and sticks in our spokes. Pay attention to these mishaps. More importantly, pay attention to your emotional responses to them. What is your subconscious trying to tell you?
