Libra
September 23–October 22
You’re being asked to return to yourself, Libra. The busy pace of life is slowing just enough for you to hear the whispers of your own inner wisdom. You may feel the urge to retreat, simplify, and be more intentional with your energy. Let that be OK. It’s a time for healing, for recalibrating your body and spirit, and for releasing patterns that no longer honor your wellbeing. Not everything needs to be fixed; some things just need space to breathe. Focus on the peace within and let that be your guide.
Scorpio
October 23–November 21
You’re coming into alignment with what truly lights you up, Scorpio. Your creative energy is returning, and so is your desire to be seen for who you are, not just what you do for others. As you release the need to carry everyone else’s expectations, you free yourself to follow your joy. Relationships are shifting as well. You’re being called to seek out community and connection that nourishes you. Surround yourself with people who reflect your growth and remind you of your magic. You don’t have to do this alone.
Sagittarius
November 22–December 21
There is something sacred about the way you’re rebuilding your foundation, Sagittarius. You’re being asked to examine what truly matters at your core and whether the life you’re building reflects that truth. There may be emotional weight around family, home, or your sense of belonging, but clarity is coming. You are entering a new chapter in your career or public life, and the decisions you make now will ripple outward for months to come. Stay grounded, stay intentional, and trust the timing of your becoming.
Capricorn
December 22–January 19
You’re seeing things more clearly now, Capricorn. Whether through new information, unexpected insight, or a simple shift in perspective, something is clicking. You’re letting go of old stories and opening yourself up to a more expansive way of thinking. There’s a deep call to speak more honestly, love more fully, and live more intentionally. This season is about realignment, not reinvention. The truth has always been in you. You’re just more ready than ever to start living by it.
Aquarius
January 20–February 18
You’re learning how to care for yourself in a new way, Aquarius. Not in the surface-level, to-do list kind of way, but in the soul-deep, energy-honoring way that changes everything. You’re reevaluating your relationship with security, with trust, and with giving and receiving. Your inner world is being transformed, and that’s beginning to ripple into how you show up in your outer world. Let yourself be in process. Let yourself evolve gently. You’re not behind—you’re exactly where you need to be.
Pisces
February 19–March 20
You’re shedding the versions of yourself that were rooted in survival, not soul. There’s a return happening, Pisces: back to your heart, your intuition, and your magic. You may find yourself reflecting deeply on your closest relationships and reimagining what it means to feel seen, safe, and supported. This is a tender but powerful time of self-discovery. You’re not losing yourself; you’re uncovering who you’ve been all along. Let your truth be your anchor. Let your softness be your strength.
Aries
March 21–April 19
The time for quiet reflection has arrived, dear Aries. You’re being drawn inward to let go of the narratives and emotional baggage that no longer serve your growth. What has been buried deep within is ready to be released. You’re learning how to show up for yourself in a new, more grounded way. There’s power in stillness and clarity in simplicity. You’re setting new rhythms for your health and daily life that support your long-term growth. You don’t have to do it all, just what truly matters. The real glow-up is happening inside.
Taurus
April 20–May 20
You are reconnecting with what lights you up and fuels your vision for the future. Relationships are shifting, and with them, your sense of what’s worth your time and energy. Not every connection is meant to last, and that’s buried deep within. Let go with grace so you can make room for the people and projects that reflect who you are now. You’re also being invited to bring more joy and creativity into your world. Find time to celebrate, flirt with life, and invest your energy into what feels fun and fulfilling.
Gemini
May 21–June 20
There’s a shift happening around your public image, career, and overall direction, Gemini. You may be questioning whether the roles you’ve taken on still feel true to who you are. This season invites you to shed any expectations that aren’t yours and to realign with a path that feels deeply fulfilling. You’re being asked to reconnect with your roots, redefine what stability looks like, and build a foundation that actually feels good to come home to. Trust that the path ahead becomes clearer the more honest you are with yourself.
Cancer
June 21-July 22
You’re being called to expand, but this time it’s less about chasing and more about becoming. Old beliefs and outdated ways of thinking are falling away, clearing the path for a deeper, more authentic vision of your life. Your voice is growing stronger. The way you speak your truth, the way you connect, the way you dream: It’s all evolving. Let yourself be seen in new ways. Not everyone will understand your growth, but the ones who matter will. Stay rooted in your truth and keep moving forward.
Leo
July 23–August 22
The deeper layers of your life are being stirred, Leo. This is a time of emotional clarity and powerful release. What you’ve been holding onto out of habit or fear is ready to be set free. This could come through financial decisions, intimate conversations, or moments of personal truth. You are realigning with your core values and learning to trust yourself in new ways. There is strength in being selective about what you decide to give your energy to. Choose the slow burn of alignment over the quick fix of distraction.
Virgo
August 23–September 22
You are stepping into a new version of yourself—one that feels more honest and more whole. You’ve done the work to see what’s no longer aligned, and now you’re ready to let it go. This is a season of self-renewal, not because you need to become someone else, but because you’re finally honoring who you really are. Your relationships are also shifting. Some may deepen; others may drift. Trust the flow. What’s leaving is making space for deeper, more nourishing connections. You are allowed to take up space, just as you are.
