Double down on closure for the next couple of days so that you can arrive fully ready for the year ahead. This is a time to wrap up lingering emotional threads, unresolved projects, or relationships that no longer serve your highest good.
By consciously bringing closure to what has been, you clear the space for new beginnings and set the tone for a fresh, purposeful start.
Taurus (April 20 – May 20)

Do a deep spring clean or whatever level of tidying, reorganizing, or refreshing you can so that what’s coming doesn’t feel stagnant or overwhelming.
Clearing physical space in your home can help clear emotional and mental clutter, creating a smoother flow for the changes ahead.
As you clean, focus on moving energy through your environment, whether by opening windows, rearranging furniture, or simply letting go of items that no longer serve you.
Gemini (May 21 – June 20)

The revelations will center around your sense of self-worth and family values, offering an opportunity to assess the deeper connections that shape who you are.
The best way to navigate this period is to sit with your emotions, allowing yourself the space to feel truly. Observe what attachments — whether to people, roles, or expectations — influence your sense of worth, both positively and negatively. Are there family dynamics or inherited beliefs that need reexamining?

This isn’t a reckless, ego-driven plunge but a rise toward the role you’re truly meant to step into — whether as a mentor, healer, master, or leader.
Prepare yourself for greater responsibility and unwavering determination that may not always win you popularity but will undeniably shape your path forward.
Leo (July 23 – August 22)

This is an invitation to rebuild your life from the very foundation. It’s a call to dig deep and reconstruct what is visible on the surface but the essence of who you are and what you stand for.
The things you once thought were unattainable are within your reach if you approach them with an open mind and heart. With this curiosity and trust in your core strength, you can begin to manifest a life that reflects your deepest desires.
Virgo (August 23 – September 22)

Consider the lessons you’ve learned along the way, both the triumphs and the challenges, and reflect on how they’ve shaped you.
What insights have you gained about your needs, boundaries, and desires? Now, think about the structures and buffers essential for keeping yourself grounded in the face of life’s inevitable shifts.
Libra (September 23 – October 22)

Pay close attention to the role you play in your career and community. Acknowledge, without hesitation, that you are an essential leader in your own right, whether you’ve fully embraced this truth or not.
It’s time to step into this recognition with confidence. Train yourself to say yes when unexpected opportunities come knocking, even if they seem unconventional or out of left field.
Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)

You have enough personal momentum to propel yourself through any challenge, no matter what’s unfolding in the larger world around you.
The energy you carry within you is like a force that can’t be easily diverted or halted; with it, you can transcend any potential limitations. Trust that you’re bigger than anything that could potentially grab your attention.
Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)

Check-in with yourself on how your ambitions have evolved. What once felt like your guiding goal may no longer resonate in the same way as your worldview expands and shifts.
Take time to reflect on the kind of partnerships that align with this new phase of growth — those that support, challenge, and inspire your expanding vision.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)

You’re at the beginning of a mini-new cycle in your relationship zone. This is a powerful moment to set fresh intentions around what you want to experience in your connections, whether that’s deeper communication, more mutual understanding, or stronger emotional intimacy.
This is the time to clarify what you’re seeking: balance, honesty, support, or new ways of engaging with your loved ones.
Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)

You’re moving beyond surface-level connections into more complex, rewarding partnerships. These relationships are meant to stretch you, challenging you to grow in ways that surface-level ones never could.
They require more depth, honesty, and vulnerability, but in return, they offer richer experiences, greater understanding, and deeper emotional fulfillment.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20)

Confront any projected fears of rejection that may be holding you back, and instead, choose to volunteer yourself for engagement and service.
Often, we build walls around ourselves, fearing that we won’t be accepted or valued, but these fears are projections of our insecurities.
Step forward with openness, knowing that by offering yourself with intention, you not only serve others but also break free from the limitations those fears impose.
