Now is a good time to strengthen your inner circle and the bonds that keep you together.
With the Sun in Aquarius forming a trine with Jupiter in Gemini, this will involve clear communication and insightful conversation. Mercury, the planet of communication and travel, is transiting from Capricorn into Aquarius as well, leaving an opposition with Mars and trine with Uranus. This might aid your endeavors by allowing conflict to be resolved through strange and unexpected circumstances.
Emotional support is important to finding common ground and forging closer relationships to the people we hold near and dear. But it’s even more needed when we’re trying to understand the people we have a hard time loving. Venus trines Mars and sextiles Uranus: that might help.
ARIES
March 21 – April 19
If you have the energy for heavy emotional labor, power to you. Just make sure you’re using your energy wisely. Why keep spinning your wheels if you’re not being heard or respected?
TAURUS
April 20 – May 20
Falling in love with the strange and quirky parts of yourself allows others to do the same. Be the weirdo you really are and give people the opportunity to surprise you.
GEMINI
May 21 – June 20
Practicality isn’t always sexy, but it will help get you to where you want to be. Your friends and loved ones will understand if you can’t take on too much right now.
CANCER
June 21 – July 22
Sometimes you have to be cruel to be kind. But telling people what they need to hear is a skill that requires finesse and tact. There are some lessons people have to learn on their own.
LEO
July 23 – Aug. 22
Don’t fight your emotions; just let yourself feel them, though it may take you a while. No amount of psychologizing and philosophizing will free you from them, anyway.
VIRGO
Aug. 23 – Sept. 22
Putting yourself first isn’t a betrayal to everyone around you. If someone is suggesting that, consider cutting your losses. It’s your responsibility to fill your own cup first.
LIBRA
Sept. 23 – Oct. 22
Loving people through their growth and changes is a sign of emotional maturity. Make an effort to love your friends through these times.

Your emotions and thoughts may be at odds with each other right now. Just pay attention to what each is trying to tell you and let your feelings arise.
SAGITTARIUS
Nov. 22 – Dec. 21
Insight into a recent situation may have you feeling out of sorts this week. Think things through before making any moves. This is not a good time to act in anger or frustration.
CAPRICORN
Dec. 22 – Jan. 19
A major change for you is underway behind the scenes. You’re about to get what you’ve been wanting, so be ready to adjust your plans to accept it.
AQUARIUS
Jan. 20 – Feb. 18
Making decisions can be difficult if you’re relying on things feeling just right. You’d be better off with a cost benefit analysis. It’s dangerous for you to make any huge decisions based on emotions right now.
PISCES
Feb. 19 – March 20
It’s important to foster caring relationships with people who are willing to call you out and hold you responsible. It’s also important to be that kind of friend for others.
