We are in the heart of winter. My personal favorite pastime for this icy stretch? Getting cozy for a game night with friends. There’s something about friendly competition that really heats things up.
Even if the idea of inciting a revolution seems daunting (or leaves you cold), Mercury’s trine with Uranus in Taurus may light a few hot fires.
The stars provide us with some insights on all this fun and games. With Mercury and Mars both in strategic Capricorn, we’re perfectly aligned for the kind of activity that requires a blend of cunning and bold moves. Settlers of Catan or Dungeons & Dragons will do nicely.
ARIES
March 21 – April 19
You may have a little extra pep in your step this week, Aries. Some choices may present themselves, and they could benefit you. Be on the lookout.
TAURUS
April 20 – May 20
It may feel as if there’s a large gap between the luxuries and comforts you so enjoy and your ability to obtain them. The good news is that there’s no absence of work opportunities available — though they may not get you there.
GEMINI
May 21 – June 20
This week may have you negotiating a healthy work-life balance. You have the ability and drive to work hard, and it’s up to you to decide what’s enough and what’s too much.
CANCER
June 21 – July 22
If things start out rough, don’t let that inform your whole week. Things can change in an instant, and don’t worry, they will. It’s going to be all right.
LEO
July 23 – Aug. 22
If you’re feeling detached and moody, you might just need a big warm hug. Whatever you’re keeping to yourself is better shared with your loved ones.
VIRGO
Aug. 23 – Sept. 22
You’re a powerhouse this week. It’s crazy how difficult things become a breeze when you have a little help. You’ll find yourself able to take on much more than the usual.
LIBRA
Sept. 23 – Oct. 22
Don’t let illusions of what could have been talk you out of appreciating what you have right now. Gratitude in the present counts for a lot more than slights of the past.
SCORPIO
Oct. 23 – Nov. 21
Time management skills are probably your most effective tool in your quest for domination. This week, use what you have. Time is a nonrenewable resource: don’t waste it.
SAGITTARIUS
Nov. 22 – Dec. 21
The fast pace of this week is a breeze for you to keep up with, as your momentum keeps building. Limited resources slow you down a little, but you’re not going to let that stop you, are you?
CAPRICORN
Dec. 22 – Jan. 19
Three words for this week are passion, drive, and gumption. You’ve got ’em all. Make the most of it, because these aren’t always so freely available, and things may just work out in your favor.
AQUARIUS
Jan. 20 – Feb. 18
What resources do you have at your disposal and what are you lacking? You could be thriving if you just demanded your due. Don’t suffer for the sake of others.
PISCES
Feb. 19 – March 20
You’re driven this week, with passion and resilience in no short supply. You’ll notice their power especially if you have a cause to put your efforts towards.
