ARIES (March 21-April 19)
On the hunt for: inspiration for the new season. You’ll gather bits and pieces from those you admire and pin them on the “mood board” of your psyche titled “Who I Want to Be Next.” It’s an attitude, a place to invest your stellar work ethic and some guidelines for your social life, too.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
On the hunt for: a different way of relating to loved ones, one in particular. A new interest or a shared project will bring energy to the connection. It’s not that there’s anything wrong with how it is, you just know that status quo will stagnate, and evolving together is essential for the health of the bond.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21)
On the hunt for: the final few items you need to get a project sent. It’s funny how the final 10% can seem to drag on for as long as it takes to do the other 90%. Don’t worry, you’ll finish strong, wrap it up with a bow and get it off your agenda. The world needs to see your urgency. Don’t be afraid of being bossy.
CANCER (June 22-July 22)
On the hunt for: ways to show your love. It makes you feel proud when you hit the right note with people, to let them know you care in the way that will actually mean something to them. Also, thoughtful planning now will save you from wasting money in the upcoming holiday season on things people don’t need or want.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
On the hunt for: fulfilling self-expression. You’ve tried things that worked and more that didn’t, but you still haven’t quite found what you’re looking for. Just know your emotion and creativity are never wasted. Each new medium or endeavor shows you something different about yourself. Keep exploring.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
On the hunt for: closeness you can feel. Because even though you may be well aware of your various bonds, you don’t always feel them in the way you want to. Familiarity can cause a kind of blindness. Being openhearted and willing to share yourself, even the vulnerable parts, is a courage that attracts just what you need.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
On the hunt for: an investment worthy of you. You can see how you’ve settled in some way. You didn’t know what was possible. There are opportunities you will only know by seeing more of the world, meeting more people and asking questions. It’s a little scary to venture, but let that be part of the fun.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21)
On the hunt for: a break from forbearance. There is grief you’ve incorporated into loving. Much of the time life occupies you, but the minute busyness stops, there’s the grief, center stage. You welcome this evidence that love continues. And if you were swept into a dizzying distraction — could you welcome that, too?
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
On the hunt for: new signatures. The clothes, scents, phrases and gestures that once felt “so you” are ready for an update. Experiment with a different silhouette or a new way of communicating. You’ll stumble onto something that feels even more like you than the old trademarks did.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
On the hunt for: your own time. You keep appointments involving other people because someone is waiting for you. It’s harder to keep agreements with yourself, but your private plans deserve the same status. Mark it on the calendar. Protect the hours with no purpose beyond whatever you feel like doing.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
On the hunt for: the bygone endeavor or relationship. You’ll hear a song from another chapter of life or drive past the exit you used to take. Maybe this is about the version of you that’s still back there. Have you outgrown it, or have you simply been busy with other things? This week will answer the question.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
On the hunt for: an assertiveness that suits you. You can skip the power poses and borrowed leadership language. Find your own way of taking up room, stating what you want and directing the action. You’ll know you’ve found it when people respond how you hoped they would, and you still sound like yourself.
