Time to rewrite the social contract for modern times. The Sun in Aries in the 7th House of Relationship places scrutiny upon our interpersonal connections. Meanwhile, a massive conjunction of Jupiter, Pluto, Mars, and Saturn in Capricorn in the 4th House of Home is shoving our noses in our collective mess. As we all assume our portion of the burden in this ongoing crisis, we have two choices before us: collapse under the pressure or transform — like diamonds pressed from coal. A new world is possible if we are willing to embrace change. In the meantime, lean heavily on patience and faith as we act together to see us through.
ARIES
(March 21 – April 19)
Birthday parties are overrated. While you isolate — a favorite pastime — review any neglected desires and weed out the ones that no longer matter. The best gift you’ll get will come from yourself.
TAURUS
(April 20 – May 20)
Time for a sexual revolution. Now that hooking up is on pause, turn your sensuality into self-love, literally. Redefine what pleasure means to you. You may find a temporarily celibate life just as satisfying.
GEMINI
(May 21 – June 20)
What dreams may come of your social reprieve? Take your idling imagination and turn it into a creative powerhouse. Your gifts of expression need time to flourish. You’ve got time now.
CANCER
(June 21 – July 22)
If social distancing were a sport, you’d take the prize. It might seem like second nature to hide in your shell in times of crisis, but your friends and loved ones need your empathic abilities now.
LEO
(July 23 – Aug. 22)
A lion in a cage is surely a melancholy sight, yet I wouldn’t underestimate its power. In your captivity, find time to lick the wounds you’ve brushed off as minor. Once you’re released, you’ll reign again.
VIRGO
(Aug. 23 – Sept. 22)
We know you’re hoarding disinfectants. Once you’ve finished cleaning house, give yourself permission to daydream. Tap into your ability to reassure others in trying times. Play your part in uplifting the mood.
LIBRA
(Sept. 23 – Oct. 22)
Once you’ve found the most flattering face mask for your personal palette, use it as directed. With restricted access to your sensual nature, express your love in other ways. Remind the world how beautiful it truly is.
SCORPIO
(Oct. 23 – Nov. 21)
Intense situations are your norm, giving you a leg up (or several) as the world descends into chaos. Don’t lord it over others. Instead, find ways to help them, rooted in your own spiritual development.
SAGITTARIUS
(Nov. 22 – Dec. 21)
You’re not going crazy. It’s just cabin fever. Instead of talking to yourself, get on the horn and talk to someone. Get some fresh air. Find room for improvement, whether in the home or in your self.
CAPRICORN
(Dec. 22 – Jan. 19)
Despite your penchant for despair, do try to stay lighthearted. Your ruling planet, Saturn, has finally arrived in Aquarius. It’s your golden opportunity to sustain and nourish those around you with fellowship.
AQUARIUS
(Jan. 20 – Feb. 18)
You were made for the revolution. With vast systemic changes on the horizon, you’re primed for leadership. Even though you’re limited to your home, you can still make some noise. It’s called the internet.
PISCES
(Feb. 19 – March 20)
We know you’re in the midst of a spiritual awakening, but the world needs some good vibes, stat. Use your voice. The world will need your empathy and insight to guide us all home.
