The Sun has moved into Gemini, and the season of the twins is upon us. With that comes a shift from comfortable knowns to exciting unknowns.
If you play them smart, these shifts can help change your life for the better, although making gains will sometimes require giving up something in exchange.
There’s a major transit this week as Saturn makes its first initial shift from Pisces into Aries. This, too, points to a period of stability that will give way to new challenges. You’ll want to get your impulsive nature in check, and that goes double for the Aries-ruled among us.
This will be a long one, as Saturn moves slowly. He is a strict teacher, but the thing is, Saturn wants you to succeed. So, when you face challenges, do it with confidence.
ARIES
March 21 – April 19
Attraction does not automatically mean compatibility, and it’s important to know the difference. This week you may find yourself attracted to people and things that are there to challenge and change you.
TAURUS
April 20 – May 20
You may receive some shocking or life changing news this week. Whatever changes do come, think about your next moves before acting hastily. You’ll want to have a clear head for what comes next.
GEMINI
May 21 – June 20
Hard work and clearly defined plans can thrust you toward your goals; make sure your footing is steady, so you can keep on track. Don’t lose sight of the finish line, even if your race is just starting.
CANCER
June 21 – July 22
Give some thought to where you make your emotional investments: not everything pays off, so you might want to diversify your portfolio. And you can always reinvest in yourself, too.
LEO
July 23 – Aug. 22
Your social nature comes out to play this week, so it’s a good time to make new friends and connections. Just make sure you mind your tone — first impressions matter.
VIRGO
Aug. 23 – Sept. 22
Taking care of yourself goes hand in hand with taking care of business. Treat yourself to whatever keeps you focused and on task. Allowing yourself some luxuries doesn’t make you soft or weak.
LIBRA
Sept. 23 – Oct. 22
Starting fresh with new projects, goals, and objectives will give you the momentum you need to finish those other projects that you’ve neglected for too long. Let this week light a fire under you.
SCORPIO
Oct. 23 – Nov. 21
The universe is asking you to confront some deep and challenging things. The choices you’ve made in the past have shaped your present; the question is, do you want them to continue to shape your future?
SAGITTARIUS
Nov. 22 – Dec. 21
Don’t get caught in an echo chamber of ideas. Learning how to communicate well isn’t just a matter of making sure others understand you. It’s also about listening well to others.
CAPRICORN
Dec. 22 – Jan. 19
You’re on the cusp of something new. That comes with letting go of the past. Whatever grudges you’re holding on to, don’t carry them into the next chapter.
AQUARIUS
Jan. 20 – Feb. 18
You’re enjoying your comfort, but you need to be able to step out of your bubble and experience the larger world around you. A gilded cage is still a cage, even if it’s of your own making.
PISCES
Feb. 19 – March 20
With new beginnings come new routines. Start off strong by making the necessary small changes that you’ve been wanting to make in your life. If you tie them to big changes, they’re more likely to stick.
